Chapter 263: Admiral Tiance

On November 16, Li Yin went to Chang'an, wearing golden armor, Li Shiji, Su Dingfang, Cheng Yanjin, Luo Shixin and other 25 generals from behind, riding 10,000 horses, front and rear preaching, the momentum was huge, passers-by have paid attention, showing a smile from the heart.

Wang Shichong and Dou Jiande were both pacified by the Tang Dynasty, and the world, which had been in turmoil for nearly ten years, should return to peace, and ordinary people could finally live in peace.

After Li Yin arrived in Chang'an, he dedicated the captured Wang Shichong, Dou Jiande and the Sui Dynasty's Chengyu and imperial objects to the Taimiao, and then held a "drinking ceremony" to count the spoils of war to worship the ancestors.

When Li Yuan saw Wang Shichong and counted his crimes, Wang Shichong replied: "My crime should be killed, but the King of Jin promised me not to die." ”

After Li Yuan heard this, he issued an edict to pardon Wang Shichong and let him be placed in Shu as a commoner with his brothers and nephews, but when Wang Shichong was taken down, Li Yuan sneered for a while......

Subsequently, Li Yuan also made the decision to behead Dou Jiande in the downtown area, and Li Yin immediately objected to this, "Father, Dou Jiande is very popular in Hebei, if he is killed, I am afraid that Hebei will rebel again." ”

Li Yuan said: "It is precisely because Dou Jiande won the hearts of the people in Hebei that I can't keep him, as for Hebei, during the period of arranging personnel to guard, there should be no more chaos, this matter has been decided, and the emperor doesn't need to persuade him anymore." ”

After Li Yin heard this, he was silent, knowing that the person named Liu Heimin would eventually have a time to shock the world.

On the same day, a generation of heroes Dou Jiande fell on the streets of Chang'an, and his death can be described as quite aggrieved.

After learning the news of Dou Jiande's killing, Wang Shichong, who was temporarily placed in the Yongzhou official office, said to the people around him: "Compared with King Xia, I ...... I can enjoy my old age in Bashuan, and it doesn't seem too bad! ”

However, Wang Shichong's happiness did not last long, the son of the minister Dugu Ji, who was killed by Wang Shichong, and now the Tang Dynasty Dingzhou assassin Shi Dugu Xiude, rushed to the place where Wang Shichong stayed, pretending that there was an edict to summon King Zheng, Wang Shichong and his brother Wang Shiyun ran out of the door, and they were hacked to death by Dugu Xiude's people.

When Wang Shichong died, he didn't know who killed him.

After this happened, Li Yuan issued an edict to dismiss Dugu Xiude's official title, but it didn't take long for it to be reactivated, and Wang Shichong's rest of his brothers and nephews were also executed for treason on the way to Shu.

At this time, Li Yuan thought that the world had been roughly pacified, so he granted amnesty to the sinners of the people of the world and exempted them from forced labor for one year. Shaanxi, Ding, Han, Yu, Yu, Rui six prefectures due to these faces to bear the toil and cost of transport, Youzhou due to long-term enemy blockage, are exempted from two years of conscription, the country's laws, orders, grids, style, temporary, temporarily use the old system of the Sui Dynasty.

However, after the pardon was issued, Wang Shichong and Dou Jiande's remnants were still exiled by Li Yuan to a far away place, and there was no pardon. Since His Majesty has issued a pardon and moved people away, this is against his own intentions, so which standard should the ministers and civilians take? Moreover, Wang Shichong has been lenient, not to mention the remnants of his party, and they should be released. ”

Li Yuan listened to Sun Fujia's advice, and then changed his attention and no longer treated Wang Shichong and Dou Jiande's remnants differently.

On the 20th, Li Yuan began to issue edicts one after another to arrange personnel to guard the newly recovered Central Plains and Hebei, appointed Qu Tutong as the right servant of Daxingtai in Eastern Shaanxi Province and Luoyang, and ordered Li Shentong, the king of Huai'an, to shoot as the right servant of Xingtai in Shandong Province.

He also appointed the general Qin Wutong and others to lead the troops stationed in Luozhou, and Li Daoxuan, the king of Huaiyang, as the governor of Luozhou, guarded Dou Jiande's original capital, appointed Zheng Shanguo and others as ambassadors for comfort, and went to the state to select and appoint officials from various prefectures and counties in Shandong. At this time, Li Shiji's father, Li Gai, finally returned safely, and Li Yuan issued an edict to restore his official title.

Because of the pacification of Wang Shichong and Dou Jiande, Li Yuan has begun to shift his attention from military affairs to economic construction. On the 26th, Li Yuan issued an edict to set up money prisons in Luo, He, You, Yi and other prefectures, and gave Li Yin, the king of Jin, Li Shimin, the king of Qin, and Li Yuanji, the king of Qi, three official furnaces each, and Pei Lin an official furnace, allowing them to mint money. In addition, those who dare to mint money without permission will be executed by themselves, and their families will confiscate the exiled border land.

In the last years of the Sui Dynasty, the disadvantages of coins were poor quality and insufficient weight, and there were even those who cut leather or pasted paper to make money, and the common people could not bear this disadvantage. At this time, it began to use the "Kaiyuan Tongbao" money, a weight of two baht and four ginseng, ten coins weigh one tael, the weight and size are very suitable, and it is convenient to use everywhere. Li Yuan ordered Ouyang Xun to write the words on the coins and write them, and the words could be righteous back and forth. (Note: Kaiyuan Tongbao is often mistaken for the year name money because it has the word "Kaiyuan", and Li Longji has an era name for Kaiyuan, but it is actually minted when Wude was four years old, and the time when this book appeared a little earlier.) )

In December, the king of Goryeo, Gao Jianwu, sent envoys to Chang'an to pay tribute to the Tang Dynasty, and Gao Jianwu's brother Gao Yuan died in the fourteenth year of the Great Cause, that is, the year Yang Guang was tested. The occurrence of this incident greatly boosted the momentum of Datang.

Although the Goryeo Kingdom is not large, because Yang Guangsan conquered Goryeo but failed to conquer it, it actually has a very high prestige among the vassal states, and such a country, now paying tribute to the Tang Dynasty, undoubtedly agrees with the status of the Tang Dynasty Sui.

So after that, there were vassal states of various sizes to pay tribute to Chang'an, and the prestige of the Tang Dynasty began to slowly spread around.

Recently, Li Yuan had never felt so comfortable, but there was only one thing that made him feel very troubled.

What made Li Yuan feel a headache was how to reward Li Yin.

Last year, Li Yin pacified Liu Wuzhou's great achievements, and he didn't have time to be rewarded, and now, he captured Dou Jiande alive, which directly led to the pacification of Hebei and the Central Plains, and then recruited Wang Shichong, and then took the lead in sending people into the Luoyang Palace......

With so many credits added together, and because Li Yin's own status was already very high, Li Yuan thought about it for a long time, and he didn't know how to reward him.

The Tang Dynasty established the country with martial arts, and it was not possible to reward or reward if it did not match the merits of the war, so after thinking about it for two months, Li Yuan issued an edict of reward to Li Yin.

Li Yuan because of the Jin King Li Yin's outstanding achievements, the officials of the previous dynasty could not be commensurate with him, and specially set up the post of Tiance General, the position above the king and the duke, nominally has the right to command the whole country's soldiers and horses. On December 20, Li Yuan appointed Li Yin, the king of Jin, as the general of Tiance, led Situ, and ordered the Taishang Book of Shaanxi East Road and Taiyuan Province to increase the number of households to 20,000, allowing him to establish Tiance Mansion and set up hundreds of officials in Tiance Mansion on his own!
