The Great Grandson of the Tang Dynasty: The beginning of the slaughter of General Tiance's mans

Chapter 438 Datang Daily

The next day, Di Renjie compiled all the confessions into a book, went to the palace in person to see Li Chengdao, and handed the confessions to the imperial case.

Li Chengdao read the confession and became angrier, exactly as he expected.

Xu Qingshan specializes in chicken essence. He was recommended by Changsun Yunlu. According to his reception, Changsun Yunlu recommended him because of Changsun Wuji.

As for why Changsun Yunlu was ordered by Changsun Wuji, Di Renjie and Li Chengdao still didn't understand.

This will not come to fruition until Changsun Wuji is brought to justice.

During Xu Qingshan's tenure, most of the proceeds from the chicken essence business were secretly transferred to Cheng Tong's name, and Cheng Tong used it to support an organization called the Alliance.

Cheng Tong is a logistics member of this alliance.

Except for Taibo Jiang, most of the people arrested were people from the alliance organization. These people were recommended to the Luye Palace by a man named Qian.

Therefore, it can be concluded that Li Yu is closely related to this Qian.

It can be seen from these people that the alliance has penetrated into the imperial court and has taken control of some of the imperial court's resources.

Li Yu's rebellion was the biggest move of this alliance.

According to a small amount of information from the Shadow Guards, this organization has a wide range of members, and the core is the residual poison left by Li Shimin. Some of its generals are Li Shimin's confidant generals.

After Li Shimin's death, these people always had a hostile mentality towards the imperial court.

In addition to the remnants of General Tiance, what is even more irritating is that the alliance has recruited foreign members, such as Shendu Chinese, Japanese, Turks, etc.

Some of these people were unwilling to be destroyed, and some were afraid of being destroyed, so they banded together to attack the Tang Dynasty from within.

Because it has become impossible to attack Datang from the outside.

Their method was to travel around the world, form gangs, collude with court officials, and even many of the remnants of General Tiance became officials in the court.

This makes it easier for them to place people in the court and even ban the army.

This was the main factor in the mutiny of the Imperial Guard.

The secondary factor was that Li Chengdao wanted to initiate a new policy, and many people were dissatisfied with being taken advantage of by these people.

"The trees want to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop. I don't want to kill people, but there are so many people who are forcing me to kill people!"

Lee Seung-do's official alliance will be defined as an evil organization.

Since the alliance was scattered across the rivers and lakes, Li Chengdao prepared to wait for Yue Fei's return and arranged to set up a branch under the Jin Yiwei specifically to eradicate the alliance.

Let Di Renjie start preparations first.

Di Renjie was ordered to retreat.

Li Chengdao's eyes returned to the case. There were piles of memorials all played by Li Yu. Li Chengdao looked upset, but he had to face it.

They all share the same principle: they will not kill anyone who rebels, which is unprecedented and goes against the rule of law advocated by His Majesty the Tang Dynasty.

The reasoning was very sound, and Li Chengdao had almost nothing to say, so for a few days, he neither went to court nor had any court meetings.

After thinking twice, I decided to build another Datang Daily to guide the fishing boats.

Only the fishing boat can suppress the direct advice of these ministers.

After careful consideration, I decided to meet a young student recommended by Shangshu Sheng from Datang College. Government Hall!

"I have met His Majesty!"

Li Chengdao glanced at the young man. He had a Chinese character face, was wearing a T-shirt, and was dressed in the style he advocated. He looked like a modern young man.

After reading the recommendation post, I found that this person's name was Lu Luo, a native of Taiyuan, with trendy ideas. He liked to advocate the futility of stereotypes, advocated academic innovation, and abandoned the old stereotypes. He was a typical opponent of hundreds of schools of thought.

"I want to take revenge, what do you think?"

Regarding the matter of starting a newspaper, Lu Luo had heard the introduction when he was recommended by the minister, and he already knew how to run a newspaper.

"The ruler is of the least importance, but the people are the most important. No monarch can ignore the people's business aspirations, but the truth is always in the hands of a few people. If public opinion is hijacked, it may influence the court. Your Majesty runs a newspaper, and the people think that it is to control the fishing boat. , guide the fishing boats, and let the people understand the great road, this is the essence of governing the country!"

"Of course! Nowadays, the exchange of ideas is becoming increasingly intensive and uncontrollable. If the court does not provide guidance, it may be used by others to hijack the people to control the emperor. This is the source of unrest. All unrest in history are based on public opinion. I think that your Majesty’s creation of a court newspaper is an unprecedented event! It is the foundation of a clean and pure society! It can make the whole world work together to defend the court!"

"And! Despite all kinds of supervision, there are still countless officials who do ridiculous things, even seeking their own benefits. The common people think that if the people can express their thoughts in newspapers and participate in the supervision of the court, the Tang Dynasty will be In another situation, the trend of clean government will also prevail!"

"There are some things that officials may not dare to say, and His Majesty may have taboos about it, but the newspaper can say it because the people can say it!"

Li Chengdao nodded and said: "Okay, okay! You have merited this recommendation from Shangshu Province. I will appoint you as the editor-in-chief of Datang Daily and the director of the imperial fishing boat control center! You are ranked fifth! You will do third-grade things."

The Chief Editor and the Fishing Vessel Control Center were temporary departments, and the position of chief officer was not established in the imperial court, so Li Chengdao specifically said that he could perform official duties as a third-rank official to show his position.

Officials below the fourth rank have no place in the palace. Fourth-rank officials can enter the palace, and third-rank officials can see them at any time. This is specially allowed to see him at any time.

For a fifth-grade official, the divine grace is as great as the heavens.

Naturally, the second-rank and first-rank officials were all core officials of the imperial court. Needless to say, Lu Luo was promoted from an ordinary citizen to a fifth-rank official, which was like smoke rising from the graves of his ancestors.

It was also Li Chengdao who valued the Datang Daily in particular.

Lu Luo was overjoyed, fell to the ground and thanked Long En, and was determined to follow Li Chengdao.

According to Li Chengdao's instructions, he selected all young students from the college to organize the staff of Datang Daily, and then submitted them to the Shangshu Province for review.

Lu Luo is a smart man, and it was during the post-rebellion period when Li Chengdao established Datang Daily that he knew Li Chengdao's thoughts very well.

Smart people should not say it clearly, especially those who are involved in official circles, how can they not try to figure out the holy will.

He was indeed a capable man. Within two or three days, he was fully staffed and started writing a large number of articles before the newspaper even decided on an office location.

Most of the articles advocated that Li Yu was coerced by others and that he was the most unjust person. The real people who wanted to rebel against the imperial court were the wealthy families who were dissatisfied with His Majesty's new policy and some famous scholars.

These people are favored by His Majesty, but they do not want to repay them. Instead, they attack the imperial court behind their backs. They are the real criminals of the imperial court.

To punish a crime, we must talk about original sin. Li Yu did not have original sin, he was just a person acting on behalf of others.

In order to achieve the purpose of guiding fishing boats, all articles were overwhelmingly distributed in Chang'an, and all were free in the early stage.

In order to become Li Chengdao's mouthpiece, Lu Luo also worked hard and directly borrowed a thousand people from Jingzhao Mansion to do the distribution work.

Due to the immaturity of various external publications, Datang Daily was only published in Chang'an at first.

Li Chengdao looked at Lu Luo's achievements. Sure enough, after this day, he participated in Li Yu's performance, and there were many fewer officials who wanted to punish Li Yu.

There is such a hard character, Li Chengdao said something public opinion back, but no one could answer.
