Zhenguan Crown Prince Li Chengqian

Chapter 678 Don't be shameless
The Luoyang Imperial Palace has undergone many years of renovations since Zhenguan four years ago, and its grandeur is no less than that of the Sui Dynasty. Li Chengqian believes that no matter how many people challenge it, they will not see anything wrong with it.

This is really thanks to Li Tai and Zhang Liang, no two of them flattered the emperor, so this magnificent palace came here, and all the money they raised among the big clans was spent, it can be regarded as robbing the rich and helping the poor up.

Today, from the envious gazes of these clans, Li Chengqian felt for the first time that these two trash dim sums were not useless, at least they were playing nice in terms of face.

After the three rounds of the wine country, after breaking up the family's short story, Li Chengqian knocked on the table and attracted everyone's attention.Then with a smile on his face, he said: "Dear clansmen, from Longxi and Jinyang, just over 20 years ago, our Li family, from a small nobleman in Guanlong, followed the general trend and occupied the world for several years. With hard work and hard work, I, Li Tang, have a strong national power, and it is no longer an unattainable dream to go far away from Qin and Han Dynasties."

"From the rise of troops in Jinyang to the just-concluded Liaodong campaign, hundreds of thousands of soldiers died on the battlefield. The picture shows ghosts from other lands, reduced to the souls of other lands. There are also many descendants of the clan, so the Great Tang belongs to all people in the world, and it is also you. These clans. Without the support of everyone, the father and Gu can only sing a one-man show, so after learning that you are all gathered in Luoyang, Gu invites you all over, let's get together!"

Li Chengqian's words narrowed the distance between the two sides, and all the clans present also praised the crown prince Shengming in unison. They hadn't heard such intimate words for many years.It has been a long time since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, but many clans still live in their ancestral fields in their hometowns. It doesn’t matter if they suffer a little bit, but what they lose is the face of the court. No royal family of any dynasty or generation is like them. Not even a black gauze hat, it's too bad.

From their words, Li Chengqian could hear that they were complaining about Emperor Taiwu. When the country was founded, the requirements for general rewards from distant royal families were too high, so that after the emperor ascended the throne, he couldn't do anything. They were raised from the clan, and they didn't even have the qualifications to enter the Xiaozong.

Youdao is a son who never speaks of his father's faults, no matter how bastard Li Yuan is, he is still his grandfather, the founding emperor of the Tang Dynasty, even if we look down on him, we can't tolerate these tongue-in-cheek wives, so he knocked on the table with his face to signal them to flatter him Pay attention to the scale.

Yes, once the emperor and the courtiers, you didn't get any benefits in the Wude Dynasty, so naturally you didn't think of Li Yuan's benefits, but if you didn't get any benefits in the Zhenguan Dynasty, wouldn't you also blame the emperor?
Li Chengqian originally planned to say comforting words to them, but now it seems that there is no need for that, the bayonet will be popular, isn't there still a clan who keeps silent?Why don't people have so many things!

After clearing his throat, Li Chengqian said in a deep voice: "I, Li Tang, treat heroes generously, with the most important etiquette in all dynasties. Your Majesty and Gu both rolled over on horseback and climbed out of the dead. Knowing this Their achievements are all earned by their lives, so the treatment bestowed on them is no less than that of the royal family."

The biggest difference between the heroes and the clan is not the difference in origin, but the loyalty to the emperor. The lives of the heroes have proved their loyalty to the emperor, and the vast majority of the clan is to sit back and enjoy what they get, so don't blame the amount of rewards. are all proportional.

On this issue, as early as the beginning of Zhenguan, when dealing with the conflict between Huaian Wang and Li Shentong and others, the explanation was very clear.So Li Chengqian said it again today, to remind everyone sitting here that if there is no credit, then how much it will be given to you depends on His Majesty's mood. This is the reason why thunder, rain and dew are all God's grace. Excessive demands are not greedy, but shameless face!

"I am dissatisfied with all of you. Just two hours ago, I sent out a court letter. The content is very simple. Please give Li Jinghuan and Li Chongyi the clothes of the county king and the salary of the county king. Once they make new achievements, I will have to formally Please canonize them as county kings to reward them for their hard work in fighting for the country. Although they are all close clans, they are also from Xiaozong, but in the hearts of His Majesty and Gu, there is no dislike in their hearts because of their relatives, favoring one over another."

After speaking, Li Chengqian brought the problem to them. Having these two at the bottom of the front is enough to show that their father and son treat each other equally.There is one person present here today, who wants to be an official or title, as long as he joins the Tang Army and makes military achievements, he promises to make an exception and reuse him. If he doesn't walk around the front of the battle with his head in his hands, who knows how much he has? How can His Majesty see them as loyal!

The role of Li Jinghuan and his brother is to "be trustworthy", to show everyone that the rules of the Tang Dynasty are like this, only by working hard can you get rich, otherwise it doesn't matter what your background is, just follow the rules.Crying poorly, rolling around, hanging yourself is useless, the rules are the rules, and there is no negotiating about this matter.

Of course, as relatives, you have a hard time, and as a big family, we can’t watch. From now on, those who have children who died in war will triple their annual pensions, and those who don’t have merits will be doubled. That’s all. No matter how many words, it is useless to find His Majesty.

As soon as the crown prince finished speaking, Li Shentong's youngest son, Li Xiaorui, stood up. He was the only one among the brothers who had not been conferred a title, so his views were naturally the same as those of the troublesome clans.But before he could open his mouth, the guards Zhonglang Li Hui and Li Chongzhen directly stepped forward and took him out without giving him a chance to confuse the public.

Seeing that the concubine of the close family was taken out, everyone showed horror on their faces.The prince was born in the army, and grew up on horseback since he was a child. His ruthlessness is no less than when His Majesty was young. He was chatting and laughing just now, but now he is killing people. His face turned too fast!However, it can't be blamed that everyone misunderstood him. If King Qi took down King Han a while ago, if he didn't instigate this, who would believe it!

Seeing that everyone misunderstood, Li Chengqian tapped on the table and said: "Don't worry, I will save face for King Jiaodong and hand over this bastard to him to discipline. Your Majesty has already had a lot of troubles. I hope you can be more considerate. Don't bother him.

It is too difficult for you to confer titles with outstanding political achievements. Military merit is the only way out, and there is no other way out. This is the only advice I give you, and it is also a warning. A good birth can only ensure that you eat well, But if you want to be a master, you have to endure hardships and risk your life!I only say this once, and you all have to keep it firmly in mind. "

Just when the atmosphere at the scene was extremely awkward, Chang Sun Chong brought little Li Xiang in, and asked the little guy to get to know them. They are all relatives, so let them see what the young master of the East Palace looks like!With the addition of the little guy, Li Chengqian's complexion improved a lot, and everyone let out a sigh of relief at the same time, biting the bullet and praising King Zhongshan one after another. .
