Tiance Hall.

Not only Li Changqing, but also all the civil servants and generals had angry faces and livid faces.

Li Shimin's move to execute Zhou Gongxuan completely angered them all.

Zhou Gongxuan just followed Li Changqing's imperial edict to regulate food. He had been an extremely honest official throughout his life, but in the end he was accused of treason and was ordered to be executed by Li Shimin.

If Zhou Gongxuan hadn't had the foresight to send all his relatives to Beijing, I'm afraid he would really be dead now.

"Mr. Zhou died unjustly. I sincerely request your majesty to ascend the throne to rectify his name and confer Mr. Zhou and his family as loyal queens!"

Fang Xuanling came forward and prostrated deeply, and said in a deep tone.

Other civil servants also echoed the request.

Li Changqing nodded and said:"I agree, and I will grant the eldest son of Zhou Gongxuan a city with a thousand households."

"Your majesty is wise!"

The ministers knelt down and shouted.

Li Changqing's reward is not ungenerous. Just the fact that he is hereditary and can eat thousands of households in the city can guarantee the prosperity and wealth of Zhou Gongxuan's descendants.

"I will not treat anyone who follows me badly, not only Zhou Gongxuan, but all of you."

Li Changqing said seriously.

When the ministers heard this, they couldn't help but be very moved. Li Changqing treated Zhou Gongxuan so kindly, let alone their old ministers?

They didn't care whether Li Changqing's words were suspected of buying people's hearts. The so-called scholar will die for his confidant. Li Changqing's attitude is enough for them to be willing to sacrifice their lives without worrying about the future of their family's descendants after death.

Every word Li Changqing said is true. Wolves travel thousands of miles to eat meat. If you can't give your ministers immediate benefits, they will rely on Why work for you, use love to generate electricity?

"Your Majesty, although the puppet emperor's move is extremely shameless, it is indeed a very clever move. Anyone who takes refuge with your officials will be punished as treason. Under this threat, even if a knowledgeable person intends to take refuge with you, he will Have some scruples."

Du Ruhui sighed, the most terrifying thing is for a person to be shameless. Li Shimin has now forgotten all his reputation and face.

No matter how others evaluate him, he just asks that no one dares to betray him. In this subtle way, This left Li Changqing isolated and helpless.

The best countermeasure is for Li Changqing to follow Li Shimin's example, so that everyone can only be neutral and dare not take refuge in any party.

But this is a lose-lose move, and Li Changqing's character will definitely not do it. Otherwise, what is the difference between Li Shimin and Li Shimin if he does such an unethical thing?

Li Shimin knows Li Changqing's personality, so he has eaten Li Changqing to death, and he is vicious.

"Don't worry, the ancients once said that those who have gained the Tao will have many helpers, while those who have lost the Tao will have few masters. Li Shimin's move is just drinking poison to quench his thirst, and will only make him go further and further on the road of betrayal and alienation."

Li Changqing shook his head and felt inexplicably sad. Li Shimin has really changed now. He is completely different from before the founding of the country. He can actually do such vicious things. After thinking for a moment, Li Changqing said:"Now Jiangnan is in turmoil, and no one is there. Dare to take refuge in others again. Beijing is located on the border, thousands of miles away from the south of the Yangtze River, and is far less controlled than Chang'an over the south of the Yangtze River. It is no longer feasible to adjust grain from the south of the Yangtze River.

Therefore, I want to implement the government military system and let the soldiers cultivate fertile fields and sow food after training. What do you think?"

Implementing the government army system is not a solution. Now there is no other way except this strategy.

The ministers are all thoughtful people. After figuring out the key, they all agreed with Li Changqing's strategy.

"In addition, I heard that I traveled through the Western Regions. There is a continent called Europe, where there is a crop called potatoes, which is harvested once a season and yields dozens of stones per acre."

Li Changqing added, he had just thought of potatoes as a crop.

Historically, potatoes were introduced during the Tang Dynasty. It seems that they already exist in Europe.

"One crop per season, yielding dozens of kilos per acre! If we get this crop, we can easily provide food for the army! Li

Jing said in surprise, and then clasped his fists:"Your Majesty, please leave this matter to me. I will send my confidants to Europe overseas to search for such seeds. I will certainly live up to the king's mandate!""

"good! That matter will be left to the general."

Li Changqing nodded in agreement, discussed government affairs with the ministers, and then left the court.

……

Li Changqing's move to grant Zhou Gongxuan a generous seal soon spread throughout the world through Wang Bao.

And under the deliberate operation of the Shadow Guard, the heat of this matter suddenly dispelled the haze caused by Li Shimin's poisonous plan.

After seeing this royal newspaper, both the common people and officials all praised Li Changqing.

"King Wu is worthy of being the Lord of Saints! The world must return to King Wu!"

"It is ridiculous that the false emperor Li Shimin claims to be the orthodox of the Tang Dynasty and the chosen son, but he executes the mainstays of the Tang Dynasty at will. Isn't this destroying the foundation of the Tang Dynasty?"

"King Wu Shengming! If it weren't for someone who really had no other merits, he would definitely dedicate himself to His Majesty!"

"The false emperor has fallen into disgrace! King Wu is in high demand!"

……

Beijing did not expect that this royal report would trigger such a huge response, and some officials were even willing to risk execution to join Li Changqing.

After this news reached Chang'an, Li Shimin soon learned about it.

Although he ordered that the sale of royal newspapers and private discussions on the court were not allowed in Chang'an City, how could he stop everyone in Youyou from talking unless he killed everyone.

Inside the Tai Chi Hall.

Li Shimin sneered and threw the Wang Bao in his hand to the ground.

"A clumsy trick to win people's hearts!"

He does not regret killing Zhou Gongxuan. If there were not this butcher's knife hanging over the heads of all officials, then I am afraid that more people would take refuge in Li Changqing.

As for his reputation among the people and officials... history has always been It was written by the winner. As long as he defeats Li Changqing, he will be the wise king!

Wang Gui laughed dryly when he saw this and said:"Your Majesty's move is brilliant. Now no official in the Jiangnan region dares to have an affair with King Wu." No matter how much King Wu can win over people's hearts, there will still be more people who are afraid of death in this world. Hearing Wang

Gui's flattery, Li Shimin felt much better and asked casually:"Are all the heads of the aristocratic families here?""

"Returning to Your Majesty, I have arrived and am waiting for Your Majesty in the side hall."

Wang Gui replied quickly, and couldn't help but mourn for the patriarchs of the aristocratic families.

What good things could come from being summoned by Li Shimin in person?
