Morning next day.

Among the civil and military officials, about one-third of them directly petitioned for Zhenguan. Talking about allowing different opinions to exist, but if they are really censored, it will definitely cause people to be afraid to speak out, and they will be aggrieved and unable to speak out. That is dangerous!

This made Li Shimin very surprised.

These people are actually petitioning for a fake product? He also said so many truths.

That's not right.

At the same time, he also had a plan in mind.

Last night, he had been thinking that even with Li Min's method, it would be very difficult to restrict the family newspapers.

After all, no matter how rigorous the review is, there will always be things left behind, and if they sincerely want to make fun of something, there must be a way. And it’s normal to stop them. Just like this situation now.

When I saw them today, I found that more than half of these officials were named Wang, and there were also some nepotistic households.

As a result, an idea came into his mind, which was to remove all these people from the core of the imperial court and return a pure space to the imperial court.

At the same time, he also thanked Li Min for letting him know how disrespectful these people were.

He also ordered all those who had different opinions and objections to be recorded. In case of need for cleaning.

Finally, someone stood up and said:

"Your Majesty, the so-called contention of a hundred schools of thought, you are afraid of being unfair! As a result, the people dare not say what they want to say, because everything has to be intervened by the court, so what is the talk? What is the development! So! Doing this is tantamount to preventing the family from running a newspaper! Doing this is unjust and unjust! It will also attract rumors! It makes people unconvinced!"

Li Shimin took a look and found that it was Hou Junji.

This man set limits at every turn from the beginning. He has always had opinions about Li Min.

But this person's contribution can be considered very high.

Therefore, Li Shimin would also listen to his words. Implementation depends on the situation.

At this time, he seemed to be right.

Li Shimin is thinking.

As for Kong Yingda and Fang Xuanling beside them, they exchanged glances.

Because Li Min mentioned Hou Junji yesterday and said he should be careful about this person.

Then Kong Yingda stood up.

"Your Majesty, this newspaper has a great influence. It is better not to allow private newspapers to run! Otherwise, some unscrupulous people will talk nonsense and teach bad things to the people!"

As soon as these words came out, Hou Junji immediately became unhappy.

"If the people are not allowed to run newspapers, wouldn't the Sixth Prince do it? Does that mean they should also be banned? Otherwise, how can it be fair?"

Fang Xuanling said: "The Sixth Prince has nothing to do!"

"What's the explanation for Zhenguan Bao? Was he born by himself?"

Hou Junji asked.

Fang Xuanling added: "The Zhenguan Newspaper is sponsored by the imperial court and is supervised by the Confucian scholar. All contents are reviewed by him and handed over to His Majesty for approval. As for the Sixth Prince, he only prints it! He does not undertake it. The Zhenguan Newspaper is different. He is responsible for it. It was run by the private sector, and a lot of content similar to that of the Zhenguan Newspaper appeared in that newspaper! Even the articles of Confucius University were tampered with! There is no need for such a bad newspaper to exist! Who can guarantee the future? Will there be some reactionary remarks in this newspaper! Inspiring people to do some illegal things!"

"If you have it, correct it, if not, encourage it. Everyone will make mistakes, and it is normal to make some mistakes! Do you insist on holding on to them? Are you doing this on purpose?!"

"Then you shouldn't use the reign name as the name of the newspaper! Zhenguan is the reign name of His Majesty, how can it be used by private individuals at will? That simply doesn't take His Majesty's eyes seriously! I beg Your Majesty to convict you. The person who handled the newspaper must be arrested and convicted!”

Kong Yingda said suddenly.

When Li Shimin heard this, he realized that the real ultimate move was here.

He knew that all this was said by Li Min, and he recognized Li Min's power in his heart.

That's really nothing left behind.

At the same time, I am also worried, what will happen if Li Min suddenly rebels one day?

This idea has been in his mind for a long time.

If Queen Changsun and Concubine Yang hadn't kept guarantees, he might have attacked Li Min directly.

It was also because Li Min had no other ideas and was just developing business and not touching military matters, otherwise Li Shimin would be the first to not spare him.

In Li Shimin's opinion, he could control Li Min, so he did not restrict his development.

When Kong Yingda's words came out, Hou Junji immediately became anxious.

If they hadn't come forward today, Kong Yingda might not have been allowed to say such words.

Before Li Shimin issued the decree.

Hou Junji immediately said: "Master Confucius, you are serious. The name of the Zhenguan era means the newspapers produced during the Zhenguan period. Why not call it Neng Zhenguan Zhengbao?"

"How can the reign name be used indiscriminately? This is disrespectful to His Majesty! The reign name represents His Majesty and is like a symbol of His Majesty. Zhenguan Zhengbao has a tendency to confuse people! Moreover, Zhenguan Bao is a name personally given by His Majesty, how can it be blasphemed? ?! Therefore, I ask your Majesty to convict you and shut down the Zhenguan Zhengbao! Capture the person who organized the report!"

Kong Yingda kept reminding Li Shimin that he had already understood.

In this case, there is a suitable reason.

Naturally, Li Shimin would not let this opportunity go.

So he ordered: "Know the moral integrity!"

"I'm here!"

"I order you and Fang Xuanling to go to the Zhenguan Zhengbao newspaper office, arrest the person who ran the newspaper, and interrogate whether there are any party members! If so, punish them directly!"

"As you command!"

Cheng Yaojin and Fang Xuanling left the palace and headed towards the Wang family.

At this time Hou Junji became anxious.

He stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, you must not do this! If you do this, I'm afraid it will arouse public outrage and end up in vain!"

"Hou Junji, are you related to the Wang family? Otherwise, why would you always speak for them!"

Kong Yingda suddenly asked.

Kong Yingda's performance today made everyone a little puzzled.

Normally, this old man would not be so aggressive, but he seemed different today.

More like Li Min.

Li Shimin naturally knew that all this was done by Li Min.

That's why Kong Yingda is like this.

"Master Kong, what are you talking about? It's nothing!"

Hou Junji panicked.

At the same time, Wen Wu below also stopped talking, not daring to say anything more.

At this time, Li Shimin suddenly said: "Okay, everyone stays in the palace. When Zhijie arrests the person, we will interrogate him together! Let's see who is the mastermind behind the scenes and dares to use my Zhenguan year. Number!"

As soon as Li Shimin's words came out, Hou Junji was unhappy, and the one-third of the children of the aristocratic family were even more unhappy.

They really wanted to go back and inform the Wang family, but Li Shimin seemed to have no intention of letting everyone leave.

At the same time, Li Shimin picked up the names of the opposing officials that had been written down and looked at them one by one.

At this time, he was tempted to drive these people away. If he allowed them to stay in the palace any longer, he was afraid that it would be detrimental to him. He had to find a way to get rid of the officials who were the children of these aristocratic families.
