Chapter 1298 - Punish the traitors
The so-called sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat!
People in the temple can't help themselves!
After being forcibly added to the yellow robe, Li Zhongyi could only pinch his nose and admit it, and set the country name as: Han!
At the beginning, Zhou Taizu Guo Wei overthrew the Later Han Dynasty and established the Great Zhou.
Now, Li Zhongyi overthrew the Great Zhou Dynasty and established a new Han Dynasty, a historic reincarnation.
Before the emperor, and after the emperor, some situations are still very different.
For example, the Yamen of the Khitan Kingdom in Nanjing, where Li Zhongyi lived, must now be renamed the Palace of His Majesty.
On formal occasions, Li Zhongyi's name for himself must also be elevated from lonely to me.
The women who accompanied her around her now have to change their names, and Zhu Niang, who has always been very casual, used to always be called the master, but now she has to be changed to the emperor.
"Your Majesty, the face wash has been prepared." Zhu Niang always felt a little awkward, but she didn't dare to violate the rules, so she obediently squatted to report.
Li Zhongyi also felt a little awkward, in the past, the women in the house called him the master, but now he has become the emperor.
"Ahem, there is no need to have so many rules in the back house, right?" Li Zhongyi has not yet adapted to the role of the king of a country, and he seems to be very casual when he speaks.
"If you go back to the emperor, the concubine ......" Zhu Niang didn't finish speaking, and was cut off by Li Zhongyi waving her hand, "Come on, when you and I are the two, let's still call the master." ”
"If you go back to the emperor, the concubine is just a woman, and she dares to violate the rules of the palace?" Zhu Niang deliberately made it bad, pretending not to understand, and did not act according to Li Zhongyi's instructions.
Li Zhongyi was holding back the fire in his heart, he just hadn't been intimate for a long time, so he simply stopped his waist and picked up Zhu Niang, pressed her on the soft couch, and cleaned it up fiercely.
"Master, the slave's waist is so sore......" Zhu Niang was bullied miserably, and she was soft and had no strength.
Li Zhongyi smiled proudly and said, "It's a small one, I can't even pack up a little lady, am I still a man?" The rules are set by people, and in the future, when you and I are in the future, love will be called whatever you want, do you understand? ”
"The concubine obeys. You can't go back. "Zhu Niang plays a small game and follows the folding race flower dance knife and gun, and her personality is exceptionally cool, and there is no trace of wear.
After Li Zhongyi took a nap for more than an hour, Yang Lie had already commanded the army and deployed the city defense of Youzhou.
80,000 soldiers of the Li family army are stationed in Youzhou, as long as Brother Yelu Xiu is not stupid, he will definitely not dare to attack Youzhou.
The Khitans are a people on horseback, good at archery and horseback, and long-distance running, but short of siege and defense.
Under the service of Zhu Niang, Li Zhongyi changed into a refreshing Confucian shirt and swaggered into the inner study that had been cleaned up.
"The concubine knocks on the emperor." Li Cuixuan, who was struggling to write, heard the man's light cough, quickly got up, and bowed down.
"Get up." Li Zhongyi suddenly felt a little tired, Nima, since he was added to the yellow robe, the whole world has changed.
"Your Majesty, you should say flat." Li Cuixuan's old background is the princess of the Later Tang Dynasty, and the education of the court has left a deep imprint on her.
Li Zhongyi felt that there were too many vulgar etiquette and it was very boring, so he deliberately ignored Li Cuixuan, walked straight to the inner room, and sat in his old position in his daily office.
Li Cuixuan sensitively noticed that the man's mood was not very good, she thought for a while, and then stepped into the inner room, bowing down, and whispered: "Your Majesty, you are the true dragon emperor, and the proper etiquette must still be there." However, in private, you can give your concubine some small conveniences. ”
Li Zhongyi felt that what Li Cuixuan said was reasonable, he was just the ruling king before, and some red tape etiquette could be omitted.
Today's Li Zhongyi is already the king of a country, and the prestige he should have should indeed have, which is not subject to human will.
"What Qing said is very true, when we get along privately in the future, I will still call me my lord as usual." Li Zhongyi wanted to follow the old example, but he unconsciously called himself me.
In fact, it still reminded Li Cuixuan that her man is already the master of the world, and there is an essential difference from the past!
"Your Majesty, Ye Mingzhen, the right prime minister of the Prime Minister's Mansion in the south of the pseudo-Khitan Kingdom, is here, and he is asking to see him outside." Gao Qiang came in from outside and whispered a report.
If Ye Mingzhen was not the biological father of Concubine Ye Xiaolan, Gao Qiang would not have come to report for Ye Mingzhen at all.
Concubine Ye Xiaolan is nothing, who asked her to give birth to a son for Li Zhongyi?
Li Zhongyi is in the prime of life, and who will be the crown prince in the future is still undecided, and Gao Qiang is really not happy to offend any woman with a son in the backyard of the Li family.
Li Zhongyi felt a little strange in his heart, in the list of the pseudo-Nanjing Dao Han officials and the homes of local tyrants and inferior gentry, there was no Youzhou Ye family, what did Ye Mingzhen suddenly do?
To put it bluntly, Li Zhongyi was very unimpressed by the Ye family's previous performance.
The daughter of the Ye family has become a concubine, and after the Ye family learned the news, not only did they not send someone to Kaifeng with gifts to congratulate them, but deliberately pretended to be stupid, just as if they didn't know about it.
Hmm, now, the sky in Youzhou has changed, oh, Ye Mingzhen knows that it is amazing, so he came to take the initiative to flatter?
"I know!" Li Zhongyi didn't say yes, he didn't say no, Gao Qiang immediately understood.
After Gao Qiang came out of the inner study, he kept guarding the door, as if there was no such person as Ye Mingzhen in this world, and he completely forgot about it.
According to the practice of the Li Jiajun, Yang Lie, who was ordered to take over the command of the whole city, ordered all battalions of soldiers and horses to raid from house to house according to the list of traitors drawn up in advance by the Military Justice Department and the Ti Cai Division.
There is a very different difference between a traitor official and an ordinary local tyrant and an inferior gentry in terms of nature. In layman's terms, one is the contradiction between the enemy and ourselves, and the other is the contradiction among the people.
Generally speaking, for ordinary local tyrants and inferior gentry, Li Zhongyi adopted a policy of only confiscating family property, and not connecting or connecting family members.
However, for those traitor officials who regarded the Khitans as their fathers, Li Zhongyi formulated an extremely strict policy: not only to raid their homes, but also to arrest people, and even to even their relatives within the three clans.
The so-called one person attains the Tao and the chicken dog ascends to heaven, which is actually a common problem of this era!
Today's social reality is that the interests of the family are greater than the interests of the state, and the interests of the individual are greater than the interests of the monarch.
To put it bluntly, if Youzhou City is a gift from the puppet Han officials, Li Zhongyi will also consider the interests of the traitors who sacrifice the city and adopt differentiated treatment.
But the problem is that Youzhou was defeated by Li Zhongyi, so the fate of those traitors who did not play any role in progress is conceivably miserable.
In a word, who taught you to recognize a thief as a father?
Political investment is extremely risky, and the harvest is not small, since the traitor officials have enjoyed a lot of dividends, when Youzhou has changed, should they spit it out with interest?
If you don't kill one, why should you be an example?
Li Zhongyi took unrelenting measures to punish traitors, at least he could warn those who came after him that the fate of traitors would be extremely miserable.
This is a political account!
As far as the economic account is concerned, in this Northern Expedition, Li Zhongyi dispatched so many soldiers and horses, and the consumption of this person eating horses and chewing can be described as amazing.
If he doesn't make up for it from the traitor's house, should he Li Zhongyi suffer this kind of stuffy loss?
Ye Mingzhen was in front of the palace gate, one stop was more than two hours, he already knew that something was wrong, but he could only bite the bullet and continue to stand against the big sun.
Wherever Li Zhongyi lives, it is the center of power, and the traffic in front of the door is busy, and people come and go, which has become a commonplace and inevitable phenomenon.
The so-called good things don't go out, and bad things spread thousands of miles!
The news that Ye Mingzhen was hanging at the gate of the palace was like having a scud, and it was just a blink of an eye, and it had spread throughout Youzhou City.
When Badger Lang was born, Ye Zhizhong wanted to go south, no matter what, he was always Badger Lang's uncle, right?
However, Ye Mingzhen was very worried that if the Khitans were to find out, it would definitely harm the entire clan. So, Ye Mingzhen stopped Ye Zhizhong and detained him in the mansion and was not allowed to go out for two months.
When Ye Xiaolan was canonized as a concubine, Ye Mingzhen simply didn't even tell Ye Zhizhong the news, just as if there was no such thing.
If you know today, why bother in the first place?
Who would have imagined that the Khitans, who are invincible in the world, are not the opponents of the Li family's army!
At this moment, Ye Mingzhen has even regretted his intestines, he knew that today, he should have abandoned his official position and led the whole clan south to join Li Zhongyi!
Alas, it's too late to regret it!
The more Ye Mingzhen thought about it, the more he regretted it, and the more he regretted it, the more scared he became, he had done so many ruthless things, God knows how Li Zhongyi was going to clean him up?
"Poof!" Ye Mingzhen was so frightened that his legs were so weak that he knelt down in front of the door of the palace.
Thanks to the blessing of his grandson Badger Lang, Ye Mingzhen still had the opportunity to kneel at the gate of the palace and personally ask Li Zhongyi for his guilt, in order to seek Li Zhongyi's forgiveness.
As for the traitors of all sizes in Youzhou City, they will fall into blood mold.
The property of the traitors in the entire Youzhou City was confiscated. The families of the traitors, the men were tied up in a long string with ropes, and the women were all charged into the sect as a trick.
As for the likely counterattack of the traitors, Li Zhongyi didn't take it seriously at all. In this world, in the final analysis, everything needs to be spoken with a knife, so let's see who holds the sharper knife, right?
The godfathers of the traitors, the Khitans, are not Li Jiajun's opponents, is Li Zhongyi still afraid of the rabble composed of these lackeys?
To put it bluntly, Li Zhongyi did not have the self-righteous so-called homogeneous feelings of the monarchs and ministers of Huizong of the Northern Song Dynasty for the sixteen states of Youyun ruled by the Khitans for decades.
If we don't take advantage of the current great opportunity to vigorously suppress the pro-Khitan traitor forces, can we say that we should leave very complicated and difficult problems to future generations to solve?
The agrarian revolution is a revolution of fundamental interests, how can it be a warm and affectionate invitation to dinner?
ps: Yesterday, Li Daguan was proclaimed emperor, and the monthly ticket skyrocketed, thank you brothers!
