The short video shows the ancient times, and the emperors cried with envy!

Chapter 289 The Huangchao Rebellion wiped out the noble clans with blood! Wu Zetian said that she had learned it!
[Wolf smoke rose into the sky, soldiers wearing armor broke through the city gate, leaving only broken limbs on the ground, and the bodies of the soldiers were soaked in blood]

[In the bustling city, wealthy families in rich attire fled in panic among the crowd, or were locked up in their mansions by the rebels who broke into the city]

[A map marked "Tang" appears, flames burn from the bottom of the map, and the entire map is torn apart]

Emperors from all over China were stunned by this scene, especially the emperors in the early Tang Dynasty.

[The old forces dissipated and new forces emerged. At the end of the Tang Dynasty, this force controlled the imperial examinations in the same way and entered the next cycle again]

Hearing this sentence, Li Shimin and others couldn't sit still.

Li Shimin held the dragon case with both hands and stared at the sky, "The next cycle?"

Could it be another Anshi Rebellion? !
The words "late Tang Dynasty" were even more irritating and made Li Shimin's breathing tighten.

Although he had long known that the Tang Dynasty would not survive for generations, when the Tang Dynasty's demise was right in front of him, he still found it difficult to accept it.

Wu Zetian frowned, "Who was in power during the Anshi Rebellion?"

In her opinion, the reason why it entered the next cycle was not only due to the family's influence, but also the Anshi Rebellion.

"Asshole!" Li Yuan cursed, "Li Shimin, what on earth did you choose to succeed!"

"I will give birth to some unworthy descendants!"

The empire he had worked so hard to conquer was completely destroyed by these unscrupulous descendants!

Li Shimin, who was standing below, looked a little stiff, but after hearing Li Yuan's words, he muttered something to himself.

Even if they are unworthy descendants, aren't they also the unworthy descendants of your father?
Of course, he didn't dare to say this for the time being.

Originally, after his father learned that he finally succeeded to the throne, he was quite displeased with him.

At this time, the sky screen continues to play.

The content that follows makes not only the emperors in the early Tang Dynasty, but also the emperors before the Tang Dynasty unable to sit still.

[Huang Chao participated in the imperial examination three times, and his name was replaced by a wealthy family member three times. In the end, he left a poem and returned to his hometown to concentrate on starting a private salt business]

[When autumn comes on the eighth day of the ninth lunar month, after my flowers have bloomed, hundreds of flowers will be killed, the fragrance will reach the sky and penetrate Chang'an, and the whole city will be filled with golden armor]

Li Longji frowned, "Poems are good poems, but how can you start such a private salt business?"

Salt and iron are all under the control of the government. Selling illegal salt is a serious crime of beheading!

Even if you are depressed and frustrated, you won’t commit crimes, right?

When the emperors felt sorry for Huang Chao, the peaceful scene on the sky was once again occupied by blood and fire.

[Led by 300,000 rebels under the leadership of Huang Chao, the city gate with the plaque "Chang'an City" was breached in one fell swoop! 】

[The rebel army entered the city, and all the high-ranking officials of the third rank and above who were dressed in silk and satin were beheaded without exception. The nobles who used to be so glamorous were now crying and begging for mercy in embarrassment]

[In Chang'an City, rebels can be seen everywhere on the streets. They break into houses one after another, seemingly searching for something, while members of the clan and aristocratic families hide in narrow rooms in panic]

[Huang Chao said coldly: "There is still a powerful noble clan in the world, so we have not completed the uprising!"]

Ying Zheng's pupils shrank suddenly, his eyes like eagles, staring closely at Huang Chao on the sky.

Being able to use his own body to fight against a huge rebel army and subvert a dynasty is undoubtedly an admirable hero.

However, if the opponent's sword is facing you, that's a different matter.

Liu Che pressed the dragon case with one hand and murmured: "The harm of the powerful noble family has come to this..."

"No." Liu Xiu clenched his fists, "It seems that the measures against local power need to be changed."

Li Shimin was furious, "You are not worthy of your descendants! You are not worthy of your descendants!"

What would the emperor do if he was overthrown by a commoner? only……

Li Shimin glanced at the minister below, his gaze a bit sharp.

It is true that his unworthy descendants were at fault for the Huangchao Rebellion, but the noble clan was even more abominable!

The ministers below complained incessantly. If they had known better, they would not have tried it. This time it is better!
Even if His Majesty didn't have such thoughts originally, I'm afraid he does now!

[After the Huangchao Rebellion, the phenomenon of "regardless of family background in selecting scholars, and regardless of family background in marriage" appeared in the world]

Ok?
Li Shimin's anger froze and he raised his head to look at the sky again.

A large number of comments also appeared in the blank area at the bottom of the screen.

"Although it is cruel, after Huang Chao finished killing, he directly completed what the previous emperors had not done. After killing all the famous families, how could he still be able to jump up and down?"

"Actually, it was not that no aristocratic family wanted to be revived later, but as soon as they opened the genealogy... / Dog Head"

"I found that all their books had been burned and all their people had been killed. No matter whether they searched the people or the books, they couldn't find it/Gotou"

"The Song Dynasty owes a lot to Huang Chao. Huang Chao helped solve the problem of the noble families. By the Song Dynasty, those noble families really became ordinary people's families."

"Thanks to the Song Dynasty's vigorous promotion of imperial examinations, there were more and more scholars from poor families, and the wealthy gentry were completely destroyed."

The powerful noble clan has been dealt with?

Li Shimin was no longer angry and touched his chin with excitement.

It's definitely not possible to just kill everyone like Huang Chao, but to eliminate some of them and then lower the threshold for the imperial examination...

The new clan and the old clan join forces for nothing more than the imperial examination. The new clan must always rely on the old clan...

Li Shimin's eyes flickered, and when he looked at the dozen or so ministers below, his expression became as bright as spring breeze.

"Dear ministers." Li Shimin smiled gently, "There are still many imperfections in the imperial examination. It just so happens that you are here, let's discuss it today."

The expressions of those officials with rich family backgrounds changed again and again, "Your Majesty, after all, this imperial examination..."

As soon as they made a sound, Li Shimin's face changed, "What? Did you have a Huangchao appear first at this time?"

"I don't dare!" All the ministers didn't dare to recognize such a big hat, and they all knelt down.

"Huh, since you don't dare, let's discuss the reform of the imperial examination!"

In the Tongtian Palace, Wu Zetian's red lips curled up slightly and she sneered.

"Since Huang Chao's move is useful, Wu thinks twice!"

She has almost killed all the Guanlong nobles, and a few more people will be enough!

"Investigate the families who have the most fun in the court, and then hand over all the evidence to Dali Temple."

No aristocratic family can withstand careful investigation. This order is undoubtedly to completely eliminate these families.

.........

[In the late Qing Dynasty, after the failure of the Opium War, China's Xiangjiang districts were gradually ceded or leased to the British. More than a hundred years later, China regained its territory of the motherland - Xiangjiang from the British! 】

Inspired by the Huangchao Rebellion and the Imperial Examination, the emperors' ears twitched as they pondered how to deal with the power of local powerful and wealthy noble families.

They keenly captured certain words in Tianmu's voice.

Cession? Lease? !
