As soon as this statement came out, the whole place was in an uproar.
Add bans to the nobles and give real power to the people.
Isn't this just to go against the nobles of the world?
You know, among the people standing in the court now, nine out of ten are nobles with titles.
Is Li Chengqian trying to offend them all?
Li Shimin also narrowed his eyes, looked straight at Li Chengqian and said: "What specific bans will be added to the nobles, and what kind of real power will be given to the people?"
"Since my father asked."
"Then let me talk about this ban first."
Li Chengqian said calmly: "Actually, it's more of a benefit for the nobles than a ban."
"We are the nobles of the Tang Dynasty."
"It certainly doesn't seem to be a problem at the moment."
"Every family is harmonious and living a very good life."
"But this is also because all the old nobles of the Tang Dynasty are here, and most of the sons and daughters of the nobles who have inherited the throne are successful."
"But what if one day the children and grandchildren of the nobles become useless?"
Li Chengqian focused his attention on Cheng Yaojin and said, "Uncle Cheng, let's talk about you if others don't."
"Your grandson or great-grandson."
"If he doesn't want to study, he just plays chicken and fights with dogs all day long. When he has nothing to do, he just goes to sit in the Qin Tower and Chu Hall."
"On the street, if I see a girl from a good-looking family, I will kidnap her as a concubine."
"Then the people on the street will scold you, the ancestor of the Cheng family, all day long."
"And that's not all. Your great-grandson is not a businessman. He squandered all your family's property in just a few years."
"As long as I have no money, I will sell shops, houses, and land."
"In a few years, your Cheng family's business will be completely ruined, leaving only the empty title of Duke Lu."
"Your great-grandson has no money to spend, so he runs out to beg for food and robs homes."
Li Chengqian looked at Cheng Yaojin with a smile and said, "At that time, how will your Uncle Cheng feel when he is watching from the sky?"
"Does this need to be said?"
"Of course I have the intention to strangle this rebellious and unfilial descendant to death."
He, Lao Cheng, worked hard all his life just to make his descendants live a better life.
If these guys didn't know how to cherish it, but instead squandered the family fortune they had worked so hard to save, how could he be in a good mood?
And heard what he said.
Li Chengqian turned around and scanned the faces of everyone present.
"Uncle Cheng is considered wealthy in our court."
"According to my estimation, his family fortune can at least enable a person to live a life of food and mouth for several lifetimes."
"But if the next generation's descendants are not as good as the previous generation, then it will be useless no matter how much he saves."
"And Uncle Cheng's family is like this with a big business. I'm afraid you won't be able to sustain it for several generations, right?"
Everyone in the venue looked at me and I looked at you, but they didn’t know what Li Chengqian’s words meant.
But Li Chengqian did not hesitate and said directly: "So, I just want to bring benefits to everyone."
"As long as there are hereditary nobles, they can have a privilege."
"After the descendants are qualified to inherit the title and crown, the nobles will send these legitimate sons to the palace to study with the princes."
Hear this.
Some of the guys in the field who had already received hereditary replacements showed their faces.
Studying with the prince is not a privilege that everyone can have.
What the prince can learn is much more than what he can learn outside.
But just when they were happy.
Li Chengqian said quietly: "But after the legitimate son leaves home, the noble must accept the supervision of the people. As long as the court receives more than a hundred letters of complaint from the people reporting the noble's misbehavior, it will be immediately The legitimate son will be kicked out of the Royal Academy and the hereditary inheritance of this noble family will be wiped out!"
As soon as this statement came out.
Li Shimin immediately raised his eyebrows, and there were only five words in his mind, this conspiracy is so wonderful!
