Ever since the officials of the scholar clan in front of the Liangyi Gate blocked the door a few days ago, Li Chengqian had no confidence in his intelligence system.

The intelligence system can be scientifically established according to the modern organizational form, but it is difficult to reverse the people's turn for a while, and it is possible for them to report to you the news.

Li Chengqian and his entourage walked to the Chengtianmen City Tower, all foreheads, just at this time a cool breeze blew in the face, Li Chengqian took a deep breath and was very comfortable, and when he wanted to take a few more breaths, he saw his feather fan and Huang Luo umbrella cover in the ministers of the palace below, and immediately rioted.

When these group officials saw Li Chengqian's appearance, their first reaction was to retreat, and they were very afraid that Li Chengqian would order them to be killed.

Later, when he saw that the Chengtian Gate did not open, there were no archers on the city tower, so he stabilized his footing.

"I said a long time ago, no matter how bold he Li Chengqian was, he wouldn't dare to slaughter hundreds of officials in front of Chengtian Gate."

"Even if he dares to kill hundreds of officials in front of the people of the world, then his prince will be the end."

……

……

In the midst of the riots, some people kept raising their voices to embolden the officials, and the array of officials could be regarded as stable.

Li Chengqian looked at this place as the last time, and now there are all young officials standing here in front of the door at the beginning, the difference is that these officials are better organized than the last time, and it is obvious that there are some masterminds hidden in these people.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came down to see the ministers and others, but he figured out that he wanted to go back to the East Palace to study behind closed doors?" A young official in a big red robe stood in front and shouted.

Hearing this, Qiu Xinggong scolded coldly: "Presumptuous! ”

Li Chengqian only smiled faintly at this, turned his head and asked the ministers behind him, "How many officials have come out of your yamen?"

Yang Shidao heard this: "The minister sent someone to ask, and most of these officials who came out were idle, and there were not many actual officials from the yamen. ”

Hearing this, Li Chengqian twisted his eyes and saw that the so-called 'officials' below were actually redundant, and those who knew history knew that there were a lot of redundant officials in the Song Dynasty, and that was because Wang Anshi focused on mentioning it when he changed the law.

In fact, there were more redundant officials in the Tang Dynasty, because the Tang Dynasty government was too open, and almost everyone who came, not to mention the officials from the imperial examination, such as Jinshi Keming Jingke, and a large number of people who were recommended, enyin, miscellaneous and normal, and surrendered by foreign tribes, there was no plan at all.

The imperial court did not change the system to do more because of the increase in officials, so many officials were redundant, which was proposed by Liu Xiangdao and Du Zhenglun, ministers of Tang Gaozong. Tang Gaozong ordered Liu Xiangdao and Du Zhenglun to formulate detailed policies to solve this problem, but because they hurt the interests of too many people, they finally gave up.

Li Chengqian looked at these officials, glanced at Yang Shidao, and said: "Wei Renzhao, the servant of the Ministry of Officials, has been imprisoned, so summon Du Zhenglun to Beijing to serve as the Servant of the Ministry of Officials!" ”

"Obey the order!" Yang Shidao immediately agreed.

Du Zhenglun was Li Chengqian's master, and Du Zhenglun was demoted because Li Shimin wanted to abolish Li Chengqian, and now Li Chengqian's position is stable, and it is reasonable to recall Du Zhenglun as a prisoner, but the ministers did not think much about it, but felt that Li Chengqian was not so ruthless.

After giving this will, Li Chengqian didn't bother to look at these people anymore, turned around and walked down the Chengtianmen Tower.

On the way back to the Ganlu Palace, Li Chengqian ordered Yu Suiliang to write an edict to reprimand the officials in front of the Chengtian Gate.

Then he ordered Gao Shilian and others to go back to the official offices to stabilize the yamen.

When Li Chengqian returned to the gatehouse of the Ganlu Palace, he ordered someone to go out to deliver a letter to Su Dingfang, asking him to prepare the Flying Eagle Army and enter the city from the sky at any time to quell the chaos.

Although Li Shimin is not afraid that Zhang Shigui and Qiu Xinggong will be disobedient, if the rebels and officials of various Shi clans send people to disrupt the whole city in order to confuse right and wrong, the Flying Eagle Army is the best weapon to deter the rebels.

In the end, Li Chengqian sent someone to Shengdaofang to tell the Jun Liu of Jing County, asking her to organize personnel to be ready to come out at any time to clean up the officials in front of Chengtianmen.

Shengdaofang was all the victims of the disaster who went to Li Chengqian to ask for help in the winter of the previous year, and Liu was a loyal and martyr woman, and Li Chengqian, who was cleaned up by them on the street, was very relieved.

Just when Li Chengqian was ready for everything, the chamberlain came in to report back, and many officials came to Chengtianmen to force the palace, and some people walked to Suzaku Street.

Li Chengqian hurriedly sent people to Longshouyuan, and sent a message to Zhao Jie to ask him to organize the young men on Longshouyuan to prepare to enter the city to quell the rebellion, and their goals were the same as Liu's goals, the officials in front of Chengtianmen and the rebellious people on Suzaku Street.

From morning to afternoon, Li Chengqian had been sitting on the gate tower of the Ganlu Palace, and every hour or two news would be delivered, and the number of people in front of the Chengtian Gate and on Suzaku Street increased, but there was no movement in other aspects.

Li Chengqian knew that this was because the other party was constantly putting pressure on him, hoping that he would make a mistake, such as sending troops out to suppress it now.

However, Li Chengqian also knew that if he sent troops to suppress it first, then no matter what the result of this rebellion was, the other party would say that it was caused by Li Chengqian's cruelty to the minister.

If the other party sends troops to rebel first, these officials will be beaten to death by their old surnames again.

In order to make the change in the back go smoothly, Li Chengqian must now let the other party strike first.

At the end of the afternoon, Qiu Xinggong and Zhang Shigui came together to ask for a meeting.

Li Chengqian didn't see them, but directly instructed the old ghost: "You take them to see Your Majesty, and tell them on the way that you can report this matter to Your Majesty, but it should be slower." ”

For these two people, Li Chengqian felt that it was better to let them meet Li Shimin directly, and they knew that Li Shimin's health was getting better and better, and the impact on morale was great.

Li Shiji walked out of the Taiji Palace, and as soon as he came to the place where the Sixth Department was, he saw Cui Dunli, the squire of the military department, come out, and when he saw him, he hurriedly walked over and arched his hand at him: "I've seen Li Shangshu!" ”

Li Shiji nodded expressionlessly and walked over, Cui Dunli hurriedly followed, and said in a low voice: "Li Shangshu has seen His Royal Highness the Prince?"

Hearing this, Li Shiji continued to move forward, only humming faintly.

Seeing this, Cui Dunli became more and more anxious: "This Chang'an City can't be chaotic!" ”

"The old man saves!" After a pause, he shouted again: "Call the old man's herald soldiers." ”

There are old people who are serving in the courtyard of the military department know that Li Shiji's performance is that the big war is imminent, and he hurriedly ran out to pass on the people.

Cui Dunli saw that Li Shiji had already made up his mind, so he breathed a long sigh of relief, turned around and went back to his official room.

Li Shiji sat down in the lobby of the military department, picked up the pen and ink on the case, and began to write on the desk.

After a while, the thirty heralds on duty at the military headquarters were standing straight in the lobby of the military headquarters.

Li Shiji looked at these people with a serious expression and gave a sonorous and powerful order: "If you take my warrant to spread the word to the soldiers of the cantonment camps inside and outside Chang'an City, if you don't see the troop transfer document signed by me recently, not a single soldier or soldier will be allowed to leave the camp gate, and those who violate the order will not be killed." ”

"Yes!"

The thirty heralds shouted in unison, and the sound spread throughout the entire military headquarters compound, and the officials and scribes in each room all looked up, wondering what general order Li Shiji had handed down, but no one dared to approach the military headquarters hall.

After Li Shiji finished giving the order, he sat down in the lobby of the military department, staring straight at the gate of the military department.
