After venting for so long, Emperor Liu's mood had calmed down and he had calmed down. He helped Yu Gu sit down, his breath calmed down, he looked around and said coldly: "Tell me your solution! You go first!"
Seeing Emperor Liu turning his attention to himself, Prince Liu Yang thought for a moment, cupped his hands and said: "I think, firstly, to order Yulin officers and soldiers to continue to suppress the remnants of the bandits, eliminate the remaining evildoers, and at the same time hunt down the leader of the bandits, Li Jiqian.
Second, order the Yulin government to impose martial law, strengthen public security, stabilize order, appease people's hearts, and try to eliminate the influence of this chaos to prevent other mistakes! "
"That's it?" After hearing the two points Liu Yang mentioned, Emperor Liu immediately showed disapproval, glanced at him, and said directly: "Not enough!"
After saying that, he said to Liu Tinghan: "I ordered Wang Qian to pursue the leader of the thieves Li Jiqian and the rest of them with all their strength. I will pursue and beat them fiercely. I will chop the thieves into pieces with a thousand knives and smash their bones into ashes!"
Liu Tinghan responded: "Yes! However, Li Jiqian has escaped into the quicksand, and it may be difficult to find a trace for a while. Moreover, it is also the depth of winter, and the weather is freezing. It may be difficult to achieve results for a while!"
"What do you mean, if you escape into the desert, there's nothing you can do about him? The climate is so cold that you can't fight and suppress thieves?" Emperor Liu asked immediately.
Liu Tinghan's expression tightened and he quickly said: "That's not what I meant!"
Seeing that he was eager to explain, Emperor Liu waved his hand to interrupt him: "Although the desert environment is harsh, it can provide a barrier for thieves, but it also restricts their activities! Li Jiqian grew up in Xiangzhou, and he has a good grasp of the geography of Yulin Road. Are you familiar with the local garrison on the border?
That is the land of the Han Dynasty, the territory they protect. Can they just sit back and watch the thieves run rampant? Let’s first set our goals among those oases and water pools. Does such a simple idea need teaching?
After ten years of no major action, the officers and soldiers of the Han Dynasty no longer know how to fight? "
Emperor Liu's state was obviously not normal. He was picking thorns in all aspects and expressing his dissatisfaction. In response, Liu Tinghan immediately responded: "Your Majesty's instructions will be conveyed in full!"
After hearing what he said, Emperor Liu's tone did not soften and said: "Tell Wang Qian that I am very dissatisfied with his performance in countering the rebellion this time, and let him take care of himself!"
"yes!"
Emperor Liu looked at Liu Yang again and continued to give instructions: "The decree was issued to Yulin Road to implement martial law throughout the territory. The party tribes in various places will be closely monitored and an inventory will be conducted on them. Anyone involved with Li Jiqian, no matter who he is, will be arrested." Down.
If it is just Li Jiqian, it is not enough. However, if he colludes with the local party members, the situation will be more serious. In recent years, the party members have caused constant trouble, and Li Jiqian also used the banner of party members. Obviously, these party members, It is the source of trouble and we must be more vigilant!
Let the civil and military officials of Yulin Dao be more alert to me. If trouble occurs again, I will deal with them first and then pacify Li Jiqian! "
The warning in Emperor Liu's words was very strong. Not to mention how the civil and military officials at Yulin Road would react after hearing this, those present were already feeling tremendous pressure.
"Yulin Dao has made this temporary arrangement to deal with this rebellion!" Emperor Liu said coldly: "However, during the rebellion of Li Jiqian, those who were negligent or even acted as collaborators will be severely punished by your Majesty to warn the world! Xiangzhou knows the state and commands the people. The envoys were dismissed from their posts, and the military and political chiefs of Yinzhou were imprisoned for questioning! This matter will be handled by Zhao Qing!”…
Seeing Emperor Liu looking at him, Zhao Pu stretched his waist and quickly replied: "Yes!"
He had already anticipated this. The response to Li Jiqian's rebellion was on the one hand, to hold him accountable, and on the other hand. With Emperor Liu's temper, it was impossible to let it go, even if it was just to vent, he had to punish a group of people.
This world, inside and outside the imperial court, is really not peaceful at all!
"And!" Emperor Liu thought of something again, his eyes full of murderous intent, and ordered: "Send an order to the Xiangzhou government to arrest the entire Li family and escort them to the capital to be executed!"
After this announcement, several people in the palace were shocked. Although no one mentioned it just now, they all knew that if Li Jiqian caused trouble on Yulin Road, life would be difficult for the Tuoba Li clan members in Xiangzhou.
But I never expected that Emperor Liu would not hesitate and show no mercy, and wanted to kill them all. He did not even intend to listen to some of Li's petitions.
Although there was such a rebellious Li Jiqian, it would obviously be biased to say that the entire Li family was all traitors. In the past twenty years, the Li family has been relatively peaceful. In addition, Li Jiqian was just a side branch. Now the head of the Li family is Li Jipeng.
This is a no-brainer, a one-size-fits-all attack, without even the intention of reviewing the push. This approach is too ruthless, and there is a question mark as to what effect it will have and what kind of impact it will have.
However, whoever taught them that they were all surnamed Li, who taught them that they were descendants of the Dingnan Army, and whoever taught them that they had once separated themselves from one side, would have been fine if there was peace and nothing happened, but now that they are involved in rebellion, they would have no choice but to consider themselves unlucky.
"What, do you have any objections?" Seeing that several people were silent, Emperor Liu glanced at them and said softly.
However, even the prince Liu Yang, who was always known for his kindness, did not rush to plead for mercy at this time. After all, he was not blindly seeking mercy. At least on this matter, he saw clearly and knew Emperor Liu's bottom line and stance. He was determined and would not challenge Emperor Liu's sensitive areas.
"If Li Jiqian rebels, the Tuoba Li family cannot be trusted. There will be collusion between internal and external forces. Decisive measures should be taken!" Zhao Pu stated firmly.
Hearing this, Emperor Liu smiled a little, nodded and said: "In that case, let's make arrangements!"
These words mean that Kaifeng this winter is destined to be full of blood. The Tuoba Li family and direct descendants add up to hundreds of people. If the servants are included, there will be even more. .
"Your Majesty, there is another situation that requires attention!" Zhao Pu reminded him while agreeing.
"You tell me!" Emperor Liu looked at him.
Zhao Pudao: "The report from Yulin Road mentioned that in addition to some party members who participated in Li Jiqian's rebellion, there was also the Mingtangchuan Prisoner Camp that was breached by him!
In recent years, prison camps in various places have experienced frequent business trips and constant riots. It can be seen that the court's management of the prison camps has loopholes, which need to be filled as soon as possible and control should be strengthened.
There are tens of thousands of prisoners throughout the northwest. These criminals are all dissatisfied with the imperial court. If they are provoked, great disaster will occur, and the imperial court must guard against it! "
"What Zhao Qing said is right!" Emperor Liu raised his eyebrows and immediately acknowledged: "I really have overlooked something. This situation cannot be ignored. I issued a strict order to the local governments to take strict precautions against the prisoner camps. !”…
"yes!"
"Your Majesty!" At this time, Liu Yang saw the opportunity and said: "The reason why the prisoners in the world are full of resentment towards the imperial court is because the imperial court used them too harshly and supervised them too harshly. In addition, the officials in various places were slack in their management. As a result, there are many hidden dangers and endless chaos.
In view of this, I wonder if, while strengthening the monitoring of prisoner camps, some mitigation measures can be taken in the management and use of prisoners to appease and stabilize their minds! "
Regarding Liu Yang's suggestion, Emperor Liu did not directly object, but fell into thinking. After pondering for a while, he still shook his head: "If it were normal, it would be fine. However, the current situation is not suitable for relaxation. We should still control it." Stability comes first. If you seek moderation at this time, I am afraid it will lead to greater turmoil. Even if you want to relax the policy, you have to wait until the Yulin chaos is settled!"
"Okay, all of you, please step aside and go on errands!" At this point, Emperor Liu had completely regained his composure and was no longer interested. He waved to several people and said, "The prince stays!"
"Your Majesty, please retire!" Zhao Pu took the lead in saluting and slowly retreated.
Wang Yinwu, who was still kneeling there, was embarrassed and didn't know how to deal with himself. He looked at Emperor Liu eagerly and hesitated to speak. Seeing this, Emperor Liu said without any expression in his tone: "You also stand down!"
"Yes!" Wang Yinwu was granted amnesty.
However, before leaving the palace, their expressions couldn't help but change drastically. Zhao Pu and Liu Tinghan, who had received the imperial edict and received clear instructions from Emperor Liu, could do things step by step and deal with the aftermath.
What about him? Emperor Liu didn't even explain what Wude should do. This was not a good sign, even if he was punished with a reduced sentence.
Thinking of this, Wang Yinwu couldn't help but feel uneasy. His whole person was surrounded by endless fear. What should he do? Where should he go?
The ministers withdrew, and only Prince Liu Yang was left in front of the imperial eucalyptus. Seeing Emperor Liu leaning slightly on the eucalyptus, with a tired look on his face, he softly comforted him and said, "Dad, please take care of your health, and don't worry too much. A little trouble. It will be settled!”
After hearing what he said, Emperor Liu breathed a sigh of relief and sighed: "I don't take Li Jiqian seriously yet. What I feel is that in the past 20 years, how could there be such turmoil and turmoil?" "
