Datang Lingnan King

Chapter 425
"Stay flat!" Li Shimin ordered calmly.

"Sinners don't know the power of heaven, they raise troops to resist, offend Tianyan, and today they come here to plead guilty. Goguryeo begs for the sage's surrender, and let them be dealt with." Seeing that Li Shimin was not angry, Gao Zhan breathed a sigh of relief, and continued, after speaking, Then he got up respectfully and stood down.

"Hmph! Are you bullying me by pushing a child out?" Li Shimin ignored the high funeral, snorted coldly, and said to a group of trembling Goguryeo nobles who were huddled in a pile.

"I can't wait!"

"I don't dare to wait. It's a big decision against Lu Yuangai Suwen. He holds the military power. I have no choice but to obey. I also ask the saints to enlighten me." The group of nobles immediately crawled to the ground in fright, kowtowed repeatedly, One of them pretended to be brave and said, and after he finished speaking, he remained in a daze, quietly waiting for Li Shimin to make a decision.

Li Shimin looked at this group of nobles who were sweating profusely, and suddenly lost the desire to continue to show off his power, but he should continue to beat.

"You are ignorant, dared to raise troops to resist, and killed tens of thousands of soldiers in the Tang Dynasty. It is a heinous crime, but I have a heart of heaven, and I don't want to cause more killings. I punished you all by demoting them to civilians and confiscating their property to make up for the crime.

Rongliu Wang Gao Jianwu has always been concerned with the Tang Dynasty, Gu Nian has no descendants, so he specially bestowed his nephew Gao to be buried as the king of Anping County, with a Chang'an mansion. "Li Shimin continued.

"Thank you, Majesty!" Although Gao Zan was only 12 years old, he had a lot of experience. Hearing Li Shimin's reward, he knew that he would no longer be a puppet in the future.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your innocence." The other nobles also went up to thank them with mournful faces.

After dealing with these small nobles, let the army enter the city to calm the people. After all, the men in Goguryeo are almost dead. If they are not properly resettled, countless people will die this winter, and they will not be able to farm in the coming year. And the autumn harvest is coming soon, whether it is domestic or Goguryeo. , but also busy for a while.

Goguryeo was newly occupied, and the problems left over from the previous Sui Dynasty had to be dealt with. The Jingguan piled up outside the city in the country now had to build a cemetery, rebury it, and mobilize materials. Demographics, redesign.

It happens that many men die in Goguryeo, so you can immigrate with more men. Disabled soldiers also need to be resettled. It’s hard to talk about daughter-in-law in Tang Dynasty, but Goguryeo can arrange directly. , The children educated will be Datang people in the future, and at most the imperial court will subsidize some, which is not a big problem for Datang now.

In the past few days, Li Shimin has intentionally or unintentionally disclosed some policies for dealing with Goguryeo to Jin Shengman, but until now he has not said how to treat Silla and Baekje in detail.

If it is said that the two countries are to be spared, they have stationed troops here until 20, and have sent troops to the two countries to receive the Goguryeo city they occupied, and they have not said that they will attack them, making them always worried.

"My lord, my concubine wants to merge Silla into the Tang Dynasty, but I only hope that the people of Silla will be the same as the people of the Tang Dynasty." Jin Shengman lay in Li Shimin's arms, raised his head, and his red lips parted slightly, looking pitiful Said.

"Why do you have such an idea? I didn't say I would attack you." Li Shimin didn't say yes, and asked Jin Shengman's clean chin with his hand, staring into her eyes.

"The identity of my concubine has been investigated by people. Whether it is Turkic, Khitan, Xiren, or Japanese slaves in western Liaoning, life is better than that of the people of Silla. Moreover, I am a woman. It is really difficult to support a small country. I am a concubine. Now it belongs to you, and of course Silla also belongs to you, and it can make the people's lives rich, and even if you think about it, the previous kings would not blame your concubines." Jin Shengman stared into Li Shimin's eyes and explained sincerely.

"Okay! I promise you that the people of Silla will be the Silla people of Tang Dynasty in the future, and I will treat them equally." Li Shimin smiled and said with satisfaction.

"Thank you, my lord!" Jin Shengman breathed a sigh of relief, relaxed his tense body, and said happily.

"Don't be too busy thanking me. I'm talking about my ugly words first. I won't target the common people, but the officials and the nobles must clean up one thing. It is in line with Datang's continued appointment. If it is not suitable, it is best to let them resign. What they have done before, I will Don't blame the past, but there will be evildoers in the future, don't blame me for not predicting." Li Shimin put his arms around Jin Shengman's waist and said.

"If I save myself, I will warn them. If they don't listen, they will be to blame." Jin Shengman blinked his big eyes twice, and said indifferently.

After deciding to merge into the Tang Dynasty, the whole person seemed to let go of a heavy burden, and suddenly felt extremely relaxed. At this moment, the person was also cheerful, lying in Li Shimin's arms and acting like a baby.

Feeling the change of the person in his arms, Li Shimin was secretly proud, patted Jin Shengman's round thigh lightly, and nodded to show that he understood.

"Baekje helped Yuzhang, and asked my concubine to ask the Holy Majesty how to arrange Baekje, and let the Holy Majesty decide." Jin Shengman hesitated, but continued.

"My concubine, how do you think Zhen Gai treats Baekje?" Li Shimin asked with a half-smile.

"Hehe, these matters are naturally decided by you, my lord. I don't understand, and I don't care about these things. I just got entrusted by others. Now that the words have been brought, I will naturally have nothing to do." Jin Shengman smiled coquettishly. With a sound, he plumped his chest, leaned hard on Li Shimin's body, and said nonchalantly.

"Okay, okay, my concubine let someone tell Fu Yuzhang that I will give him two ways, one is to learn from Silla and merge into the Tang Dynasty, and I will guarantee his wealth and honor for the rest of his life, or go back and prepare and start a war." Li Shimin said Holding Jin Shengman in his arms, he said domineeringly.

"Ah!" Being picked up suddenly, Jin Shengman couldn't help but exclaimed. Instead of answering Li Shimin, he put his arms around Li Shimin's neck, winking at his domineering face with admiration.

When Li Shimin saw the beauty, he immediately felt his blood boil, the dragon's body shook, and he walked into the inner hall with the beauty in his arms as light as a swallow.

As early as when Li Shimin stood up, the servant next to him bowed his head and lifted the veil. After Li Shimin entered, he gently put it down and retreated to a shadowy place, protecting Li Shimin from being disturbed when he was showing his glory.

…………

In the golden autumn of October, Li Shimin did not return to Chang'an, but instead took a boat to Wadao Road with his men and horses, inspected it, and then turned to Jiangnan, planning to play, and then went to Lingnan to take a good look at his territory before returning to Chang'an.

With the exception of a few important ministers, everyone else was sent back, or presided over government affairs in the Liaodong Peninsula.

There are only 2000 sailors and more than [-] Jinwu guards accompanying the army.

Of course there are former Silla queen Kim Seungman and Baekje king Buyujang.
