This prince, it doesn't matter if you don't do it!

Chapter 821 Volume Wei Zheng's Way, Tang Dynasty does not want...

Seeing this, Yuchi Jingde said gloomily, "Are you still trying to quibble? Or do you really think that my sword is not sharp? I really don't dare to kill you?
You must know that my Majesty was assassinated, and you dared to kidnap Taoist Sun at this time. This is putting my Majesty to death!
"Even if I skin you alive and stuff you with straw, even Wei Zheng, the most reasonable man in the Tang Dynasty, can't make sense of your behavior!"

When he said this, the look in Yuchi Jingde's eyes was enough to kill people.

After the broker translated Yuchi Jingde's words, someone in the hall immediately started shouting.

Without the help of a broker to translate, Yuchi Jingde could roughly guess what the man meant just by looking at his fierce and aggressive appearance.

It's simply that this matter has nothing to do with him, it was all done by their prefect.

The prefect didn't care at all. He stood up and started to wrestle with the guy who pointed out him.

However, what was unexpected was that the two people who were originally fighting each other ended up fighting in the direction of Yuchi Jingde.

It was at this time that the two of them, in perfect harmony, rushed towards Yuchi Jingde. Their posture clearly showed that they were prepared to capture the leader first.

But Yuchi Jingde was not afraid at all. Seeing the two men rushing towards him, he, who was sitting at the table, raised his foot and kicked the prefect in the face.

With his other hand, he picked up a book of some kind from the table and threw it at the other guy.

He cursed, "You are so stubborn! You really think I dare not kill Li!"

As soon as he finished speaking, several bodyguards kicked the two men to the ground from behind.

Yuchi Jingde took the opportunity to draw a long sword from the waist of one of his personal soldiers, and without any hesitation, he killed the two guys who were about to attack him on the spot.

For a moment, the entire hall was silent...

Yuchi Jingde wiped the blood that sprayed on his face with disgust, and then said impatiently: "Take them all away, if they don't tell us the whereabouts of Taoist Priest Sun, their property will be confiscated and their clans will be exterminated!
Since you have surrendered, you must look like you have surrendered!

In two days, I want to see Taoist Sun standing in front of me!

Not even a hair less!"

Yuchi Jingde was not a person who killed people indiscriminately, but he was definitely not a generous person either.

Hearing what Yuchi Jingde said, his subordinates hurriedly dragged away the people who were already trembling with fear in the hall.

That's really dragging...

Almost no one can stand up and walk a few steps on their own.

After witnessing Yuchi Jingde's cruelty, everyone was terrified.

In the past, they were the kings of this prefecture. But now, when their power no longer allowed them to show off their might, panic arose from the depths of their hearts.

Just as they were about to leave the hall, Yuchi Jingde said again: "Remember, you must not harass the people. In addition, the whole city is offering a reward. Anyone who can provide the whereabouts of Taoist Sun, no matter who he is, will be rewarded with 10,000 gold coins!"

"Don't worry, sir." One of his subordinates turned around and smiled when he heard the words.

After they all left, Yuchi Jingde sat in the main hall bored, and no one knew what he was thinking about.

Three days later, Yuchi Jingde led his men out of the city with an annoyed look on his face.

During these three days, all the officials of the government office were killed by Yuchi Jingde.

In order to ensure basic public security in the city, Yuchi Jingde had no choice but to leave behind a troop of several hundred men to temporarily maintain operations in the city. He also followed the example of Liu Bang and made three agreements with the people in the city. At the same time, he sent someone to notify Changsun Wuji and asked him to send someone to handle follow-up matters.

"Sir, where are we going now?" After leaving the city, someone asked with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Yuchi Jingde said with a dissatisfied look on his face: "Where to go? Where else can we go? There are only so many prefectures in Siam. Even if we have to overturn all the prefectures in Siam, we must find Taoist Sun!"

As he spoke, he pouted and said, "I didn't expect these guys to be so stubborn. It's really damn bad luck!"

Upon hearing this, all his subordinates were speechless.

However, seeing Yuchi Jingde's reaction, no one continued to ask Yuchi Jingde.

It seems that this master of mine is in a bad mood.

Although no one asked Yuchi Jingde, they still discussed it in private.

"You said, the master is obviously looking for Taoist Sun, but he has to toss around in these cities. Could it be that Taoist Sun could be kidnapped and brought to these cities?"

Someone asked in confusion.

As soon as he finished speaking, someone immediately said, "If it were me, I would definitely hide Taoist Sun in the mountains. Isn't it better to find a cave than this state capital?"

"So you are just soldiers, but I am the Lord." After this person finished speaking, someone else immediately said.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, he immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of many people. Then someone said disdainfully: "You are so great, you know everything, then tell me, why is this happening?"

"Why?" The man immediately asked, "Have you forgotten that when those people robbed Taoist Sun, they were unharmed? Do you understand what this means?"

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, he continued, "This shows that those people don't want to hurt Taoist Sun. Under this premise, how could they just find a cave to hide Taoist Sun?

I won’t say that we were served delicious food and drinks, but at least it wasn’t like what you said.

Do you really think that the Master is just looking for something for no reason?"

After hearing what this person said, everyone showed a look of sudden realization.

You know what, what this guy said does make sense.

However, in front of them, several servants of the Duke of E's Mansion just smiled and said nothing when they heard it.

Others may not know, but don’t these retainers know what’s going on?
But there are many things that really cannot be told to outsiders.

……

On the other side, Natai House.

Li Er's palace has always been here. Even after Siam surrendered, Li Er did not change the location of his palace.

As the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, he had to be cautious in many aspects.

There is nothing wrong with this. After all, his safety is related to the destiny of the Tang Dynasty.

At this moment, when Changsun Wuji received the message from Yuchi Jingde, his head was buzzing.

It is true that he and Yuchi Jingde had some personal grudges, but when it came to the interests of the Tang Dynasty itself, he was willing to put aside his personal grudges.

He doesn't say that national interests are above everything else, a nonsense he himself doesn't even believe, but sometimes he is indeed willing to stand on the side of national interests.

The premise is that there is no conflict between national interests and his personal interests.

Obviously, there is no conflict at this moment.

"This old bastard!" Changsun Wuji cursed weakly, and then said, "He enjoyed killing people, but in the end, it was my turn to clean up the mess.

Hurry up and invite the ministers of various ministries, the Duke of Liang, the Duke of Zheng and others to discuss the matter."

He knew very well that this was just the beginning for the old man Yuchi Jingde, and that as long as Sun Simiao could not be found, that guy would keep making trouble.

But he couldn't say anything about it. He could figure it out with his ass that this was Li Er's trick, and Yuchi Jingde just understood the emperor's intention.

Not long after, Fang Xuanling and others arrived. Changsun Wuji did not hesitate and said directly: "Duke E has successively raided many officials in several prefectures of Siam in recent days. Almost all the officials in these prefectures have been killed...

Now, Duke E has sent a message asking us to deal with this mess."

Hearing this, everyone was not surprised. Ever since Li Er's order was issued, they had expected this day to come. They just didn't expect Yuchi Jingde to act so quickly.

"This matter still needs some discussion." Ma Zhou said immediately, "No matter what, Siam is now part of the Tang Dynasty, and the people of Siam are also the subjects of the Tang Dynasty.

We have to pay attention to it!"

"It's not that simple." Fang Xuanling stood up immediately after hearing this and said, "Your Majesty wants to completely integrate Siam into our Tang Dynasty. To completely integrate Siam, it naturally cannot be done with a vassal state as before.

Moreover, I believe everyone here has guessed how important Siam is to the Tang Dynasty. Whether the Tang Dynasty’s food problems can be solved in the future depends on the governance of Siam.

To govern Siam, the first thing to bear the brunt is the people's livelihood! "

When it comes to the management of people's livelihood, it is really the expertise of these people present.

For a moment, everyone was talking about it again.

However, Changsun Wuji waved his hand and said, "Okay, our opinion doesn't count in this matter. We still have to ask His Majesty for his opinion first."

Changsun Wuji is a very pragmatic person. He called everyone here today just to let everyone go meet Li Er together.

He could do this kind of thing, but he wouldn't do it.

One by one, no one can escape from it.

"Indeed." Upon hearing this, Ma Zhou immediately agreed, "In that case, let's go to see His Majesty together and ask His Majesty to make the decision."

Soon, everyone appeared in Li Er's palace, which was not surprising to Li Er.

If Changsun Wuji could receive the news, why couldn’t he receive it?

After listening to Changsun Wuji's brief explanation of the matter, Li Er asked, "What do you think, my dear ministers?"

“What this old minister means is to quickly transfer personnel from the Tang Dynasty to fill the vacancies in various prefectures.

Nowadays, almost all prefectures are under martial law. If it lasts too long, it may cause panic among the people.

After all, we treat them as citizens of the Tang Dynasty, but they may not think so. "

Everyone nodded when they heard this. Although the people were the most numb group of people, they were also the group that lacked the most sense of security.

Such people are most likely to fall into panic, and people in panic are the easiest to be exploited.

After a long time, who knows if there will be any accidents?
"Duke Qi is wrong." Just when Wen Yanbo was about to speak, Wei Zheng stood up and said, "The governance of people's livelihood is not just about sending a few officials over.

Instead, it is to make the people truly feel that the court values ​​them.

Moreover, how long will it take to dispatch officials from the Tang Dynasty?

At this time, how uneasy must the people in those states be?
Rather than taking such a risk and dispatching officials from the Tang Dynasty, it is better to use the barbarians to control the barbarians!"

"Huh!" Wen Yanbo was stunned when he heard Wei Zheng's words.

Back then, when he proposed using barbarians to control barbarians, this old man argued with him until they were red in the face. But now he has this kind of reaction, which really surprised him.

Fang Xuanling nodded and said, "Duke Zheng is right.

At the current stage, the governance of people's livelihood, in the final analysis, is to appease the people's hearts and use barbarians to control barbarians. This is the best way to appease the people's hearts, at least at this stage.

But if this is the case, over time, what will be the difference between Siam of the future and Siam of the past?
Even if Duke E kills all the officials in Siam, it will only be a change of name.”

He understood Wei Zheng's thoughts, and most people present could understand it.

Wei Zheng was simply moved by the miracles created by the Ming Dynasty.

The barbarians can be controlled by the barbarians. Just because the Ming Dynasty was able to achieve results doesn’t mean others can do the same.

"I naturally know this principle." Wei Zheng said immediately, "What I mean is that the lower-level officials can be checked out in Siam, and the officials of our Tang Dynasty can also be disguised and brought in. During this time, we can slowly make them begin to accept our Tang Dynasty.

The integration of one ethnic group with another is not that simple.

When I was in Sun Moon Mountain, I was wondering why the various tribes in Sun Moon Mountain were so harmonious.

At that time, I didn’t think it through.

But today, I have figured it out.

Their harmonious coexistence depends on several key points.

One is fairness.

In Sun and Moon Mountain, you can see that no matter who they are, they are all absolutely fair. Even the eldest princess at that time had to pile up stones on the top of the city wall.

The second is to pay attention.

Riyue Mountain values ​​every citizen and truly puts everyone's survival first.

The third is understanding.

At that time, Sun and Moon Mountain tried to understand the difficulties faced by every citizen and tried to solve their urgent problems.

Of course, the most important point is the fourth one, crisis, which makes it easier for them to unite against a common enemy.

But it is undeniable that without the above three points, the miracle of Sun Moon Mountain would not have been possible at all.”

After Wei Zheng finished speaking, everyone fell silent.

It’s not that they haven’t thought about this problem, but it’s precisely because they have thought about it that they kept their mouths shut.

Because they knew what Wei Zheng said was right.

But this is not something they can accept.

What a joke! I have worked hard all my life just to talk to the common people about fairness, respect and understanding.
Go to hell!
Isn’t the reason we struggle for generations to come just to hope that one day we can be superior to others?

Who the hell wants to talk about fairness?
If that's the case, then the matter itself is unfair!

As for the Ming Dynasty doing this, there was nothing the Ming Dynasty could do. Under the circumstances at the time, if Li Chengqian did not do this, there would be no way to unite everyone.

But Datang doesn’t need it…

And these Tang Dynasty officials could not accept it.

No matter they study hard or struggle for generations, all they want is to be a superior person!
If we ask them to talk about fairness to the people at this time, who will compensate them for their previous efforts?
There are selfless people, there are some here, but they are definitely not all of them.

For a moment, the whole hall was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop...
