Chapter 279: Riot

The turmoil of Princess Yongjia's incident soon passed, and Princess Yongjia, who was grounded, was also released to continue to make waves.

Outside Chang'an City, a man rode a fast horse and galloped over, with three fiery red flags on his back, like flames beating in the air.

The fast horse galloped into Chang'an City, and when the residents on the street saw it, they spread out to both sides as fast as they could, allowing the fast horse to pass.

Everyone knew that this was the messenger who delivered the war report, so everyone speculated whether there was another war somewhere.

The fast horse galloped all the way to the palace gate before stopping, and the messenger flew off his horse and handed the bamboo tube on his back to the guard guarding the palace gate, "Emergency military situation!" ”

The guards didn't dare to slack off, and immediately took the bamboo tube and turned around and rushed in, handing over the emergency military information to Li Shuangli, who had just returned to Chang'an.

After Li Er saw it, he had such an expression, obviously he already knew that such a thing might happen.

Li Chengqian was very puzzled, what happened, and asked, "Father, I don't know where there is a war?" ”

"Zhang Shigui is in an urgent hurry for 800 miles, and there is an urgent report that the untouchables in Jiannan Daoya, Qiong, Mei and other prefectures are rioting."

"Fortunately, I was prepared, so I ordered Zhang Shigui to be the governor of Maozhou a long time ago, just to prevent these untouchables from rioting." Li Er said.

Since returning from the expedition to Goguryeo, Li Er felt that it was a pity that he didn't defeat Goguryeo in one go! I have always been obsessed with fighting Goguryeo.

Therefore, the defeat of Goguryeo became Li Er's heart disease, like a fish in the throat, so Li Er ignored the courtiers' repeated dissuasion, and tried every means to send troops to Goguryeo again.

In order to prepare for the attack on Goguryeo, Li Er sent the people of Ya, Qiong, and Mei prefectures in Jiannan Province to build ships.

Due to the heavy labor force, the people of these states suffered unspeakably, and they gathered to make trouble, which eventually turned into an uprising.

Li Er, who had expected this kind of thing, sent Zhang Shigui to Maozhou as the governor, and monitored the movements of these states at any time, and once fashengbaodong, he immediately suppressed it.

"Father, Ya, Qiong, Mei and other states rioted, even if Zhang Shigui suppressed it this time, there will be people rioting again next time, and the suppression is just a symptom but not a cure."

"The retainers thought that shipbuilding should be suspended, so that the labor of the common people would be reduced, and they would not be dissatisfied with the imperial court." Li Chengqian said.

If it weren't for Li Er's constant desire to conquer Goguryeo again, how could he force these people to rush to work day and night, making them miserable, and there was really no way to live, so they had no choice but to riot and revolt.

The Gelao tribe became the main force of this anti-Tang uprising.

Li Chengqian's meaning was to hope that Li Er would suspend his expedition to Goguryeo, but the Tang Dynasty really couldn't support such a big move. 35xs

"Humph! What do you know? Goguryeo has repeatedly violated the border of our Tang Dynasty and despised the prestige of our Tang Dynasty, and sooner or later it will become a confidant of the Tang Dynasty, if you can't take the opportunity to eliminate it. ”

"When it dominates the peninsula and becomes strong, it will be even more difficult to destroy it, not to mention that Goguryeo has always colluded with the Turks in Mobei."

"Once they join forces, Datang will be attacked by the other party from both sides, and at that time, Datang is afraid that there will be a danger of losing the country." Li Er said that this is also what he is most worried about.

Compared with this, the riots in Ya, Qiong, Mei and other states are nothing at all.

It's a big deal, just suppress it a few more times, Goguryeo is the big problem.

At the beginning, Yang Guang, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, may have thought the same way, so he would recklessly defeat Goguryeo, and only then did he have three expeditions to Goguryeo that led to the fall of the Sui Dynasty.

At this time, Li Er also had the same thoughts in his heart as Yang Guang at the beginning, and began to not take the people seriously.

I have long forgotten the truth that water can carry a boat and also capsize a boat.

is all focused on fighting Goguryeo, and now where can I go back and care about the life and death of these people living at the bottom.

Fortunately, the Tang Dynasty's qi was much stronger than that of the Sui Dynasty, and before Li Er could come to Goguryeo for the second time, he had already died in Cuiwei Palace.

This also made the huge expedition to Goguryeo stopped, so that the Tang Dynasty had time to breathe, so as not to fall into the same fate as the Sui Dynasty.

"Erchen also knows that Goguryeo is a big problem for my Tang Dynasty at the moment, and if it continues, sooner or later it will cause riots in various places."

"At the beginning, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty led to the demise of the thriving Great Sui Dynasty because he spared no effort from the people."

"If my father doesn't stop here, sooner or later the Tang Dynasty will follow in the footsteps of the Great Sui, and my father is afraid that he will become the second Yang Guang." Li Chengqian said.

Li Er's face suddenly changed when he heard this, how could Yang Guang, a tyrant, be on a par with him.

"What kind of bastard are you talking about, how can today's Tang Dynasty be compared with the Sui Dynasty at the beginning, and how can I be compared with Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty."

"The expedition to Goguryeo has been prepared for a long time, and this time it will definitely be eliminated, and then it will enter recuperation, and in a few years, Datang will still be able to restore its prosperity."

"I have been the emperor for more than 20 years, will I not know as well as you, I need you to be here to teach me a lesson." Li Er was very dissatisfied.

"What the son said is true! This riot can be suppressed, but what about next time? What about next time? There will always be a time when it can't be suppressed, but it will become a prairie fire and burn the Tang Dynasty to ashes. Li Chengqian said.

"You rebel! Get out of here! Li Er trembled angrily, pointed at Li Chengqian and roared angrily.

"Son's resignation!" Li Chengqian gave up his hand, turned around and limped out, he had already persuaded Li Er, but Li Er didn't listen, and he had no choice.

This rebellion was soon completely suppressed by Zhang Shigui and Liang Jianfang, the general of the Right Guard, and did not cause much damage to the Tang Dynasty.

Therefore, Li Er intensified and increased the labor, which made the Shu people suffer from the battle of shipbuilding, and asked to accept the ship from the imperial court.

According to a large ship, 2,236 horses of silk, to do the wages and hire Tanzhou people to build ships for them.

Perhaps because of the antecedents of the riots in Ya, Qiong, Mei and other prefectures, the imperial court agreed to their request.

The state and county officials urged the coercion to be seriously urgent, and the poor had no choice but to sell their fields and houses, even if they sold their children and daughters, they could not supply, which caused the price of grain to skyrocket, and there was an uproar outside the sword.

Among them, the state and county officials took the opportunity to make a lot of money and made a lot of money, but the lives of the people were miserable.

Even so, which caused public resentment to boil, Li Er still did not give up his plan to expedition to Goguryeo, and asked once a day what was going on with the preparations.

In addition to asking about the preparations once a day, Li Er has been silent on alchemy, hoping to refine the elixir of immortality.

As for the major affairs of the imperial court, Li Er no longer cares about it, and all of them are handed over to Li Chengqian to deal with, of course, the military and political power is still in his hands. 20 Friends who read books, you can search "Blue Chinese Network", you can find this site as soon as possible.
