Chapter 164: Perfect Strategy
"What an old Li, he even added his own lines to my lines, and now the Cui and Wang families can only comply!"
Li Hao hid in the shadows and clenched his fists excitedly.
In his original lines, he did not associate Li Shimin with King Qin. It just expressed that the emperor was forced to be in a hurry, and he would also do something to the five surnames and seven hopes.
Unexpectedly, Li Shimin temporarily revised it, taking the topic of King Qin and the five surnamed Qiwang as friends, vaguely expressing that he was still the King of Qin back then. saved enough face for the second elder Cui Wang, but he also beat the two families.
This plan is not a second, this time it is Li Hao, and he is completely convinced.
Li Shimin is worthy of being the king of the ages, and his ideological realm is very different from ordinary people.
The second elder Cui Wang has been completely shocked by Li Shimin's momentum, he has no usual temperament at all, his heart is pounding, and his mind is also blank, and he doesn't know how to solve today's matter.
After all, the two families were unreasonable from the beginning, and they did such a rebellious thing as assassinating the emperor, even if Li Shimin killed the two families with iron and blood, the world could not say that he was not. Originally, he relied on Li Shimin to cherish the people, and he didn't dare to casually move the five surnames and seven hopes.
But now that there is a strange person Li Hao beside him, the situation has become complicated.
Last year, the Datang snowstorm was flooded, mourning everywhere, and there was hunger on the road. The originally precarious situation was easily solved by Li Hao alone.
No matter how strong the strength of the five surnames and seven hopes is, can they make monstrous waves, can they be more serious than the snow disaster? What if Li Hao could also solve the troubles caused by the extermination of them?
Although the Cui and Wang families were suspicious, they did not dare to gamble with their own lives.
Li Shimin and the eldest grandson Wujian are also very worried at the moment, although the words written by Li Hao go straight to the hearts of the people, but the two people kneeling underground are also human spirits, if they notice that there is a cat in it, the five surnames and seven hopes will become more difficult to deal with in the future.
However, after waiting for a long time, King Cui and the others still knelt on the ground and did not dare to come out, obviously really frightened.
The eldest grandson Wujian gritted his teeth and bowed his head lightly to Li Shimin, as if to say: Since you believe Li Hao, do as he says.
Li Shimin finally mustered up his courage.
"Elder Cui, Elder Wang, sit down!"
At this time, Li Shimin put away his momentum and said softly.
The two elders hurriedly thanked each other and sat down, but they still lowered their heads and did not dare to look directly into Li Shimin's eyes.
Li Shiming paused for a long time and continued to speak: "Back then, with the full support of the five surnames and seven hopes, I was successfully called the crown prince, and I will remember this kindness. I also respect the second elder from the bottom of my heart. Therefore, these years have been very tolerant of you. If it weren't for that, do you really think that the Cui and Wang families recruited literati and formed a wide range of henchmen in the court, I don't know? ”
The second elder's head hung lower.
"Since you don't speak, then I speak. From now on, I will never be so generous to you. You must know that although I am like a relative and friend to you, I am also the emperor of the Tang Dynasty. I am the master of the Tang Dynasty, and this world should also be my world. ”
"What Your Majesty said is very true."
"Very good, I can hear the words of the two Aiqing, and my heart is much more steady. I would also like to believe that this assassination was the act of two disrespectful men who lost their minds, and it had nothing to do with the Cui and Wang families. But from now on, all the power of the Cui Wang family must also be handed over to me, and they can no longer be as willful as they are now! ”
The second elder Cui Wang was shocked when he heard this, although Li Shimin's words were reasonable, but if he was doing what he said, wouldn't it mean that the Cui Wang family had completely lost their power and became Li Shimin's private family?
In order to wait for them to speak, Li Shimin slowly stood up from the chair, he lay on the desk with one hand, leaned forward slightly, and the pressure of the emperor diffused again.
"Second elder, I have great respect for you, if you support me, you are still the head of the Cui family in Qinghe, and you are still the owner of the Taiyuan royal family. If you don't follow ......"
Before he finished speaking, Li Shimin stopped and walked towards the inner hall with the support of his eldest grandson.
Leaving the two old men in place, slowly savoring the smell of blood at the cliff of words.
This is the door of the dormitory was pushed open, and the eldest grandson Wuji walked in slowly, and said with a smile.
"Your Majesty said that the second elder came from afar to travel and travel very hard, Chang'an has been very prosperous recently, let me take the two of you to the city for a walk, you have worked hard for half your life, and it is time to take a good rest!"
"Then there is Uncle Lao!" The second elder smiled bitterly and followed the eldest grandson Wuji out of the dormitory.
Everyone knows in their hearts that they are visiting Chang'an to recuperate, but in fact, the second elder is under house arrest.
As the current talkers of the Cui and Wang families, as long as they are controlled, the Cui and Wang families will be in their hands.
In the inner sanctum.
Li Shimin patted his chest and gasped.
"Scared the hell out of me! I thought those two old guys would turn their faces after revealing their true intentions. I didn't expect to be frightened, Xiao Li, Xiao Li, you are really a god. Under the wonderful pen, the old fox can only become a domestic animal! ”
Li Hao laughed and didn't answer.
After all, it is a famous scene that is regarded as a classic in modern times, if even two old guys can't be suppressed, how can they capture the hearts of a generation?
"After that, what should I do?"
Li Shimin calmed down his excitement and asked a little anxiously, after all, this was the closest he had come to producing five surnames and seven hopes.
"The next thing is to win people's hearts, Lao Li, you are more professional than me in this regard, why ask me? That's the only thing I can do to help you! ”
As he spoke, Li Hao took out a picture from his arms and handed it to Li Shimin, which was a training method for the modern army.
Li Shimin was so smart that he instantly understood what Li Hao meant.
The next day, the news of the assassination of the emperor in Chang'an City came to an abrupt end, and Li Shimin went to court!
His explanation for the abandonment of the government in the past few days is that Li Hao, the king of Zhen'an, has innovated an army training plan, and if he trains soldiers according to this plan, he will definitely be able to greatly improve the combat quality of the Tang Dynasty soldiers. They had been working all night to discuss the feasibility of this plan, which is why it was delayed for a long time.
As soon as this remark came out, all kinds of rumors were self-defeating, Lijiazhuang regained its reputation as the first village in the world, and the business of Suzaku Street bottomed out and rebounded, becoming more lively than before.
After explaining the reasons for the abandonment of the government, Li Shimin said a few things that shocked the ministers.
First of all, Cui Baichang and Wang Yuemiao were exceptionally promoted to be the Daxingtai Shangshu Order, and the officials were from the second grade, and they stayed in Chang'an Jingshi forever.
Second, he promoted a number of important officials of the Cui Wang family and ordered them to disperse various parts of the Tang Dynasty to lead important affairs.
In the end, the two families of Cuiwang were granted the priority to cooperate and trade with Lijiazhuang.
On the surface, these orders are Li Shimin's preferential treatment of the Cui and Wang families, promoting them exceptionally, and controlling the important affairs of all parts of the Tang Dynasty.
But in fact, it choked the throats of the two families.
The two people who were promoted seem to have unlimited scenery, but the positions they have come to are all in name only. I can't make any waves at all.
The second elder Cui Wang was left in Jingshi and became a hostage in disguise.
And trading with Lijiazhuang is also tantamount to being deprived of the freedom to do business, and what they sell and do in the future must depend on Lijiazhuang's face. Li Shimin can also know all about the property obtained.
As Li Hao said, Li Shimin is professional in this kind of thing of winning people's hearts, and he does everything in this matter, which can be said to be a perfect strategy.
