Chapter 2261 The enemy is attacking!

Lord Su and Li Ming searched for a long time in the place where the emperor often hid the seal, but still couldn't find it. Li Ming was really crazy now, and started looking for it frantically without anyone urging him.

The others looked at each other, wondering why the seal had disappeared.

They thought of countless possibilities, and all of them suspected the Shangguan family. They were also hesitant whether to call the old thief Shangguan over!
"Is this what you're looking for?"

Just when they were about to send someone to Shangguan's house, Wang Yue's voice suddenly came. He looked at the officials who had already started searching spontaneously and couldn't help laughing.

“National Master!!”

"National Division!"

A group of people looked over when they heard the sound and were shocked to find that Wang Yue had appeared in the hall at some point in time. Everyone was terrified.

You know, the entire imperial city was controlled by them, so how did Wang Yue appear?
Moreover, seeing that Wang Yue dared to come here alone, everyone present became nervous. They all felt that something unexpected might happen today.

Concubine Rou reacted quickly. She said bluntly, "Master Imperial Master, no matter who becomes the emperor, you are the Imperial Master. Why do you have to get involved in this matter?"

Although she was compromising when she said this, she was actually reminding the noble families who had already participated in the discussion not to forget that the Imperial Master was the son-in-law of the emperor!

Everyone who came here was smart. After hearing what Concubine Rou said, Lord Su and Lord Wen said no more and quickly called on the soldiers guarding outside to rush inside.

Wang Yue didn't move at all, but just said one word calmly, "Fall!"

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone in the room fell to the ground, and the soldiers outside who were originally sprinting also fell down.

Beisu Qingfeng is the poison that has been with Wang Yue for the longest time. After continuous improvement, its effect has always been the best.

The colorless and tasteless smell had spread from the palace to the outside without anyone noticing. Soon, all the rebels in the palace fell to the ground. Only Wang Yue stood there, not affected at all.

Seeing that the problem here had been resolved, Wang Yue used Wu Ju to bring Li Rong and Li Chuan over.

After the brother and sister arrived, they went to check on Li Ming first, and found that Li Ming was just lying there unable to move, with only a small wound on his neck. They then hurriedly looked for something to stop Li Ming's bleeding, and then took out the antidote to relieve the Beisu Qingfeng on Li Ming's body.

After Li Ming regained his strength, he staggered to Concubine Rou, picked up the sword that cut her neck, and stabbed it into her heart without mercy under Concubine Rou's horrified eyes.

Killing can sometimes be addictive. After Li Ming killed Concubine Rou, he laughed wildly for a while, and then he disappeared and killed all the ministers who were involved.

Li Ming had just killed someone when there was noise outside the palace. Shangguan Ya called on the Shangguan family to quickly control the imperial city and began to suppress all the rebels.

At the same time, they also began to rescue those royal guards who were unwilling to surrender.

After Li Ming killed all the people, he issued an order very straightforwardly that all families participating in the rebellion would be classified as the three tribes of the Yi clan!
So, the original eight major families in the capital, except for the Yang family that was previously opposite, were destroyed in an instant, leaving only the Shangguan family.

The reason why the Xie family was also destroyed was entirely because of Xie Wenqing who was controlled by Wang Yue, but the elders of the Xie family participated in the rebellion.

Of course, the people of the three clans who were killed were not only from the aristocratic families, but also a large number of poor families headed by the Xiao family were killed.

Such a large-scale killing resulted in the loss of most of the officials in the entire court. Only a few peaceful families were left, and they were all terrified.

After Li Ming had done everything frantically, he called Li Chuan and Li Rong and said very seriously, "Chuan'er, Rong'er, I will bear this bad reputation, and the rest is up to you siblings!"

Li Rong and Li Chuan did not stop Li Ming during his madness. After all, the families who were killed did not support Wang Yuezhong's parliamentary plan. Moreover, they rebelled for their own selfish interests, which was obviously what they deserved and they did not deserve sympathy at all.

But they didn't expect that Li Ming would say this after he went crazy, so the two of them didn't know how to persuade him.

Li Ming was actually heartbroken. He originally thought that his imperial skills could allow him to control people's hearts, but after what happened with Concubine Rou, he suddenly realized that he couldn't control it at all.

Li Ming hated the noble families that influenced his imperial power, but the poor people he trained had already become alienated from him before they were able to compete with the noble families.

Although Concubine Rou's words were very cruel, she was right in one thing, that is, if the poor family grows up, they will become aristocratic families again, so the aristocratic families will never be cut off and will always be a threat to him. Of course, if it weren't for Wang Yue, who single-handedly pacified tens of thousands of rebels, Li Ming might not have made a decision, but after seeing Wang Yue's strength, Li Ming knew in his heart that if Wang Yue wanted to use force, he would have no power to fight back.

Therefore, Li Ming knew that Wang Yue was more terrifying than the aristocratic family! If the Li family wanted to continue as a royal family, the next emperor must be Li Chuan, and if Li Chuan wanted to secure the throne, he had to have a good relationship with his sister Li Rong.

So, Li Mingcai made this decision, but when he saw his two children were a little confused, he sighed and said, "Through this incident, I have seen that the aristocratic families cannot be completely wiped out. After the old aristocratic families are wiped out, new aristocratic families will emerge in new ways.

So, I want you to try your method. If your method doesn't work, with the Imperial Master here, the worst that can happen is that we can suppress the rebellion all over again."

After hearing this, Li Rong and Li Chuan stopped trying to persuade him. Instead, Li Ming announced the imperial edict in public at the grand court meeting the next day, and sent it to all prefectures and counties at full speed.

The content of the imperial edict, of course, is to let you, Li Chuan, be the emperor, and Li Ming be the emperor emeritus.

Li Chuan saw that his father had so easily given him the position, so he did not hesitate to do so and immediately announced the reform of the court. At the same time, he appointed Li Rong as the prime minister to preside over the reform.

After receiving the order, Li Rong did not rush to implement it, but first set up a cabinet. He wanted to use the cabinet to handle the affairs of the court first, and only after the situation stabilized could he carry out reforms.

After all, a large number of people from aristocratic families had just been killed, resulting in a large number of official vacancies. If a parliament was suddenly set up at this time, it would definitely cause unrest in the court.

After the cabinet was established and the political situation was quickly stabilized, Li Rong began to study how to form a parliament.

The parliament in the capital was also very simple. It simply asked the heads of the existing families in the capital and some nobles to form the upper council, and then the towns and villages in the jurisdiction of Kyoto elected some elders to form the lower council.

After the establishment of the two parliaments, they began to supervise court officials and, of course, also put forward some opinions that benefited the country and the people.

However, no one dared to raise any opinions at the beginning. Even when it came to supervision, no one was willing to speak up. They all felt that this was stealing positions from the censor, so of course they were unwilling to do so.

Li Rong did not have time to pay attention to these things for the time being and could only wait for the opportunity. She put more energy into promoting the issue of wealthy families and poor families paying taxes just like ordinary people.

There is just one condition now. Those who are willing to pay taxes are from aristocratic families. They can directly obtain a seat in the parliament, and it is a hereditary seat. As long as the family exists, there will definitely be a seat.

At first, the aristocratic families really didn't understand what this councilor meant, but they were tempted when they heard the four words "hereditary succession".

In their view, no matter what the official position is, as long as it is hereditary, it is a good thing for them.

Only after they actually became members of parliament did they realize how great it was to be a member of parliament.

Because the parliament has the power to impeach local officials and has ways to influence local fiscal spending, although things can no longer be done as directly as before, they can still do some things in a tactful way, as if their status has not changed much.

Thus, the imagined rebellion did not happen, and the court of Daxia lived in peace.

However, the North believed that Daxia must have been in a state of weakness at this time, and actually assembled an army of 300,000 and marched south in three groups, preparing to launch a war of annihilation against Daxia.

After receiving the news, Li Chuan immediately summoned the ministers to start a court meeting, but the drawbacks had already appeared at this time. Because the Shangguan family was the only family left in the capital, the officials who were promoted were all young officials, and it was difficult for them to provide any effective suggestions.

The only useful person here is Pei Wenxuan, but he comes from a poor family and has limitations in terms of war. However, he found a different way and proposed a feasible suggestion, which is to let the surrendered soldiers from the aristocratic families who were captured this time make meritorious contributions and go to the front line to cooperate with the border troops.

Li Rong was still a little hesitant, and Li Chuan was also at a loss. They thought this had both advantages and disadvantages, and they didn't know what to do for a while.

On the one hand, of course, these surrendered soldiers are well-trained and can form combat effectiveness as long as they are sent to the front line.

Moreover, the relatives of these soldiers are here. They are not sentenced to death, and some may even face the confiscation of their property and extermination of their families. Therefore, if they go out to fight, they will be even more reckless, hoping that their families will be forgiven by their death in battle.

Of course, there are disadvantages. If such a large-scale rebel group is forgiven, it will not only cause adverse effects, but may also lead to collective defection.

Moreover, most people are selfish. If they get the weapons and disregard the safety of their loved ones and rebel at a critical moment, Daxia will be in trouble.

Therefore, Li Chuan and Li Rong looked at Wang Yue at the same time. They both wanted to know what Wang Yue could do.
