Chapter 85 Kill

"Your Majesty, just say it, what should I do next? Should I kill, arrest, or release?" Cheng Yaojin was already angry at this time. He was the one who smashed Li Xuandao just now, and he was second only to Li Shimin. The second person to see the letter, so he felt even more angry about the crime on the letter.

This memorial records whether someone else is the crime of Tao Gongqian, the governor of Xuzhou.

Tao Gongqian has no other hobbies, but he has a quirk, that is, he prefers to be believing in other people's traits. I don't know where he got a evil prescription, saying that eating babies can lead to immortality. So since then, major cases of theft have occurred in Xuzhou, but Tao Gongqian relies on his power to suppress it.

However, after eating too many babies, his body aging speed did not decrease. In order to still enjoy wealth and honor after death, Tao Gongqian began to build a tomb in a large amount of taxes and silver, and privately stored troops to intercept passing merchants. He collected young girls, made waxes, and worshipped them in the tomb chamber. He also made mercury dolls with three-year-old babies, thinking of them as burial objects...

All kinds of beastly crimes are simply unacceptable - such people are actually from the disciples of saints and Confucian disciples, which is ridiculous.

Even Zhu Can, the cannibal king of those days, could claim to be a good person compared to Tao Gongqian.

"Kill!" Li Shimin was silent for a long time and spit out a word.

"Come."

A group of guards rushed in with great strides: "Your Majesty, what are you asking?"

"According to the arrest on this list, no one will be left." Li Shimin took out a piece of note that was a foot thick, which recorded the names of all the criminal officials.

The guard commander opened the note and immediately gasped. He saw that the note was more than ten feet long, and it was densely filled with names in small fly heads, with thousands of people. Moreover, the positions of these names were either a supervisor, a Mu Shou side, or a famous general in the army. They could be said to have authority.

"This, Your Majesty thinks twice..." The guard commander was also a little confused. He naturally knew a little politically when doing things in the palace. Of course, he understood the seriousness of the matter. If all these people were arrested, the entire Tang Dynasty would probably not be able to operate.

"Shut up." Li Shimin angrily scolded: "Where is the right to speak here? Why don't you work for me quickly?"

"Yes..." The guard commander had no choice but to start arresting people according to the name on the list.

At this time, everyone realized that Li Shimin was playing the real thing, and all the Confucian disciples were panicked and begged for mercy.

"Your Majesty, please spare me..."

"Your Majesty, I am forced, and I am absolutely necessary."

"Your Majesty, give me another chance, I know I'm wrong."

“…”

However, if Li Shimin's determination was so easy to change, he would not be the saint of eternal times. Seeing that Li Shimin was unmoved to beg for mercy, the guards still unswervingly dragged them out, and these Confucian disciples all cursed.

"Li Shimin, you must die a good death."

"Your tyrant, do you want to shake the orthodox status of Confucianism? How could you move me as a tyrant?"

"Tyrant, you don't know whether you are right or wrong, just wait for the Tang Dynasty to perish."

"What can you do if you kill me? It's easy for you to kill one of me, but can you still kill Confucian disciples all over the world?"

"Li Er, you are a tyrant with bloody hands. You kill your brother and sister-in-law and force your father to abdicate. Today you are even better at killing ministers. You will eventually be retribution."

"Li Shimin, if you treat Confucianism like this, you should take revenge from our Confucianism. I will take the lead and wait for you underground, I will wait for you..."

“…”

However, although these people were more harsh than the other, Li Shimin was unmoved at all and just looked at everything in front of him coldly.

After the Daxing Hall became quiet again, half of the people were missing in the entire hall, 90% of whom were from Li Shimin's sect, and the other part was neutral and a few Confucian disciples who were self-disciplined.

"Retreat."

"Retreat the court!" Wang Tingchu's sharp voice sounded, and the remaining people bowed one after another and withdrew from the Daxing Hall.

Of course, as usual, his confidant did not leave, but came to the imperial study room to hold a small meeting and continue to discuss major issues. However, this time there were not many people, only Fang Du Wei and the other two. As for Cheng Yaojin, Li Ji and others, the world will be in chaos in the future, and they must prepare in advance.

"Your Majesty, everyone has been arrested, what should we do next?" Fang Xuanling stepped forward and asked: "So many people have been arrested, and most of them are the heads of various departments. Half of the courtrooms are empty, and each department has no more than them, so it cannot be operated."

"It's okay, just let their deputy take over." Li Shimin had obviously thought about everything and waved his hand indifferently: "Zhener once said something to me, and I think it makes sense. That is, no matter where you are, unless it is an exception, the supervisor and deputy are born enemies."

How smart is Du Ruhui? With just this sentence, he immediately understood what Li Shimin meant: "It makes sense. The deputy hated that the supervisor blocked his own path to promotion, and the supervisor was worried that the deputy challenged his position... Unless the situation was special, the two would not match up. Therefore, as long as we order the deputy directors of each department to come to power, plus some win-win and favors, it would be easy to bring them to our side."

"That's what I mean." Li Shimin nodded: "Pulling one batch to fight another is enough for us to overcome this difficult period."

"But in this way, our goal of attacking Confucianism cannot be achieved." Fang Xuanling asked: "Their deputy are all Confucian disciples. When they get to power, they will also sway the flag and shout for Confucianism. Moreover, they just took office, and it is difficult to have any bad deeds. It is easy to push them up, but it is difficult to let them go."

Li Shimin couldn't help but smile on his face, "I can't control this, so I'll leave it to Zhen'er to deal with it."

"Your Majesty...you are..."

"Nothing." Li Shimin's face turned aside: "Nothing, don't worry. The most important reason why a deputy is a deputy is that their talents are not as good as their supervisors. Such people have more success and lack of exploration. Isn't it very easy to take on trouble?"

"but……"

Wei Zheng still had questions, but Fang Xuanling quietly stopped him: "What Your Majesty said is reasonable, far-sighted, and I am convinced."

"I'm convinced."

"Be convinced."

“…”

"Then let it go, let it go." Li Shimin waved his hand lazily: "I'll leave this matter to you."

"I'm going to leave."
