Chapter 427: Li Chengqian's Hongmen Banquet

The scholars around Luoyang are all related to each other, and they naturally advance and retreat together when dealing with the imperial court, and dozens of patriarchs of the scholars gathered in Luoyang to see Li Shimin.

Luoyang line in.

Li Shimin glanced listlessly at the note handed over by Ma Zhou, and threw it on the table casually.

"Since the prince wants to do this, let these people go to Yichuan County to see the prince."

Li Shimin didn't listen, blurted out, waved his hand to let Ma Zhou retreat.

"Obey." Ma Zhou hurriedly saluted and retreated.

These days, Li Shimin is becoming more and more tired of government affairs, and he says that the prince is in charge of the country for everything, and he ordered Li Chengqian in Yichuan to be consulted.

Fortunately, a few days ago, Li Chengqian's guard of honor and accompanying officials arrived, and the government and government could be handled back and forth on both sides of Luoyang and Yichuan.

----------------------

Xu Jingzong and others have been in Yichuan County for more than ten days, and Li Chengqian neither sent troops to recruit Cai Wenying nor returned to Luoyang, and handled official business as usual every day.

In addition to official duties, he also gathered the offerings brought from Chang'an and rehearsed a new play, which made the ministers below scratch their heads.

However, the government affairs were well organized, and they did not dare to say anything.

On this day, Li Chengqian was discussing matters with Du He in Yichuan County.

"Duhe: From now until next year's spring ploughing, how many farm tools will you build?"

This is what Li Chengqian is most concerned about now, and the words have already been said, if there are no farm tools to distribute to the hungry people in Yichuan County during spring ploughing next year, those literati may not know how to arrange him?

"The ore reserves are very sufficient, as long as the coal is transported over, we can create double the farm tools by next year's spring ploughing, and even the people in Song County have them." Du He's tone was very relaxed.

Li Chengqian's heart was also relieved when he heard this, and he watched Du He cross-legged Erlang's legs, playing with the folding fan in his hand leisurely.

There was some imbalance in his heart, so he hurried him and said: "Then don't sit here, go to Xue Dading to transfer manpower to Luoyang to carry coal." ”

Hearing this, Du He hurriedly got up and said, "Obey!" Then he turned and went out.

Li Chengqian looked at Du He's back from behind, and saw that he was gently shaking the folding fan while walking, looking like a merry and talented man, and said secretly in his heart: Could it be that Du He crossed over?

How did he get on with such an easy time?

Li Chengqian was thinking about it, when an attendant came in to report: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Qiqi, Gao Jifu, a member of the Zhongshu House, asks to see him." ”

As soon as Gao Jifu led the patriarch of the scholar clan out of Luoyang, Li Chengqian knew that Li Chengqian was waiting for them to come.

"Announce him in."

Li Chengqian tidied up his appearance slightly, and sat down to wait for Gao Jifu to enter the house.

"Minister Gao Jifu see His Royal Highness the Prince."

"Flat."

Gao Jifu looked up at Li Chengqian, and saw that his expression was not sad or happy, and he suddenly felt unfathomable.

was shocked, put away all the prepared words of advice, and directly said Li Shimin's words.

"Since it is His Majesty's will, King Lone should follow it." Li Chengqian's voice was emotionless.

"When does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince plan to summon them?" Gao Jifu asked cautiously.

"The Lone King has been busy with government affairs these days, and he has no time to summon them. You first take them to see the evidence of the rebellion of the gentry officials of Yichuan County, and then take them to see the Yihe River that is being cleaned up, and the lives of the hungry people in Yichuan County who have been relieved.

There is also a few new plays rehearsed by Lone Wang, and let them watch the plays every night.

After reading all this, bring them to meet the Lone King. After Li Chengqian finished speaking, he lowered his head and dealt with the official document.

Seeing this, Gao Jifu could only salute and leave.

In the next few days, the patriarchs of the Shi clan who came to Yichuan County all complained bitterly.

Although these patriarchs of the scholar clan did not have the ability to bow down and obey orders under the order, as the chief priest of the county, they were the objects of preferential treatment everywhere.

Li Chengqian went so far as to directly let them run around in Yichuan County, today to see the river workers, tomorrow to see the hungry people, and also let them see the evidence of the crimes committed by the Yichuan gentry, not to mention that there were blood blisters on their feet.

It is said that the gentry of Yichuan are inextricably linked with these patriarchs.

How can they be happy to see this?

What to do if you are not happy?

Bear with it!

Otherwise, take a look at the dilapidated Li Bancheng's home, Li Bancheng is the richest man in Yichuan, he has done the most bad things and is the most hated, so his family has been the most damaged.

Seven family members were killed on the spot for resisting alone.

The heads of these people are still hanging there.

I have to watch a play at night, and the play is all about how the gentry of Yichuan County exploited the people, and in the end, these scholars were ordered by His Royal Highness the Prince, who was wise and martial.

On the afternoon of the fourth day, when Li Yifu was telling the patriarch about the process of distributing the land and property of the Shi clan, someone from the Zhu clan in Song County came to report, and Ma Jiu personally led the team to rob the Zhu family in Song County.

Zhu Yaohui, the patriarch of the Zhu clan, fainted on the spot, and the other patriarchs knelt on the ground and wept bitterly, begging Li Chengqian to summon him.

Li Chengqian has been paying attention to the situation here, and finally smiled when he got the news, and ordered to summon the patriarchs of the Shi clan around Luoyang City tomorrow.

On the second day, Li Chengqian summoned the patriarchs of the surrounding Shi clans in Luoyang in front of the south gate of Yichuan County, and ordered Xue Rengui to make arrangements in advance.

Li Chengqian ordered that the officials he brought from Chang'an, the rebellious Yichuan gentry, the hungry people who were given a share of the land, and all the people living in the county town of Yichuan must all pay their respects outside the city.

The weather was sunny and breezy, and the entire Yichuan County was as lively as a festival.

Li Chengqian set aside the honor guard of the crown prince, and walked slowly and solemnly, and tens of thousands of people felt dazzled when they saw it, thinking that the gods and immortals in the sky had descended to earth, and they kept chanting the names of gods and Buddhas from all walks of life.

The three thousand soldiers of the Tang Dynasty Mansion were brightly armoured, holding all kinds of bright weapons, and they were solemnly arranged in a neat and uniform phalanx, like a big mountain, in front of Li Chengqian's throne, shocking everyone's selfish thoughts.

Li Chengqian ascended to the throne, and tens of thousands of people below bowed down to Li Chengqian like the wind blowing rice waves.

"See His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

The sound of the mountain rumbling was heard miles away.

Li Chengqian waved his hand lightly on the right, and Liu Kui shouted flat.

Tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians once again straightened up one after another.

The patriarch of the Shi clan was arranged in the outermost area, and with them were a hundred and ten poor old peasants, and the patriarch of the Shi clan heard that Li Chengqian planned to summon them together.

This made these patriarchs of the Shi clan feel very uncomfortable, and their faces had not looked good since they stood here.

The patriarchs of these scholars around Luoyang have also seen the world, and several of them have also seen Li Shimin, and they are clear about the etiquette of the imperial court, but it is the first time to see such a scene like today.

Especially when I saw the poor peasants standing on their left side out of the corner of their eyes, looking at Li Chengqian on the high platform with tears in their eyes one by one, I felt uneasy in my heart.

Li Chengqian watched tens of thousands of people straighten up, and wanted to say something in public, but it was just that the loudspeaker was troublesome, so Li Chengqian did not arrange it, and directly ordered to "summon the elders of Luozhou".

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has ordered to summon the elders of Luozhou!"

Liu Kui paged, and dozens of attendants below passed out one after another, and the people along the road for nearly two miles heard His Royal Highness the Prince's Luozhou father, and couldn't help but look outside.

I saw a large group of people, old and young, poor and rich, led by the attendants to slowly walk to the high platform where the crown prince was.
