Chang'an City.
Today's entire Chang'an is already in turmoil.
Because too many merchants from Xia Kingdom were arrested.
This incident made people panic, because they were all worried about Xia Guo's revenge. Amidst the wanton arrests, in Chang'an City, suddenly, countless news came out.
The news that came out was Du Qi's response.
Du Qi ordered Li Shimin to release all the merchants of the Xia Kingdom. If he did not release them, he would assassinate the officials of the Tang Dynasty.
This is Xia Guo's response.
The news spread all over the sky, and it was soon known by the bad people. The bad people had already spread the news to Li Shimin in the shortest time. When Li Shimin learned about it, his complexion suddenly changed.
Du Qi's threat was extremely targeted.
Even let Li Shimin hold back.
Li Shimin immediately summoned Fang Xuanling to enter the palace to discuss matters. After Fang Xuanling entered the palace, Li Shimin said, "Xuanling, do you know about the news about Du Qi spreading in Chang'an City?"
Fang Xuanling said: "The minister is still busy with official duties today, so I don't know for the time being."
Li Shimin immediately said: "Now Du Qi's threat is to order us to release the merchants of the Xia Kingdom. If we don't do this, Du Qi will assassinate my Tang officials. And Du Qi has already spread the news first, telling everyone Let the officials resign, otherwise, if I refuse to release them, he will order the assassination of the officials. Xuanling, what should we do now?"
Fang Xuanling's expression also became solemn.
Du Qi's response was too harsh.
Too decisive.
Such an arrangement was beyond Li Shimin's consideration, and also beyond Fang Xuanling's consideration.
Seeing Fang Xuanling's silence, Li Shimin was a little dignified for a while. Because at the moment, if Datang adopts forceful resistance, then once Du Qi's people assassinate, even if the government has made preparations, there may be damage. If Datang directly released the businessmen of Xia Kingdom, it would be like admitting defeat.
Fang Xuanling said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, I don't know how to make a decision for a while. Because if Du Qi's threat is ignored, many officials may resign. And under assassination, many officials will be killed So in the end, there must be turmoil in the hearts of the people, and there will be turmoil in various places. The most important point is that local officials are constantly being killed, which is very likely to lead to local turmoil. As for releasing the businessmen of Xia Kingdom, it is tantamount to admitting defeat to Du Qi. So there are certain difficulties in both options.¡±
Li Shimin also looked embarrassed.
The current situation is not good.
Li Shimin said in a deep voice: "Fang Qing, what do you think should be done?"
Fang Xuanling said: "Your Majesty, I don't know what to do for a while!"
Li Shimin sighed in his heart.
At this moment, he began to miss Du Ruhui, because when Du Ruhui was around, whenever there was a need to make a decision, Du Ruhui could make a decision immediately. But Fang Xuanling's here, it is definitely no problem to make plans and analyze the situation. But it was quite difficult for Fang Xuanling to make a decision.
Li Shimin immediately said: "Come here, please come here."
The servant went to notify immediately.
Not long after, Li Yuan came with a cane. Li Yuan is now in his dying years. There were already age spots on his face, and his back was bent.
Li Shimin gave the seat directly. After Li Yuan sat down, he looked at Li Shimin and said, "The emperor summoned me, but what's the matter?"
Li Shimin directly said what Du Qi threatened.
After listening, Li Yuan said: "Now you say that Du Qi is threatening you, so why do you want to arrest the merchants of Xia Kingdom?"
As for the news from the outside world, Li Yuan is now indifferent. Ever since he handed over all the chess pieces in his hand to Li Shimin, Li Yuan never asked about matters. Especially in the past few years, Li Yuan himself has aged too much, and has no energy to take care of these things, and stays in the palace all day long.
Especially in the cold winter of last year, he fell ill several times, and he was almost unable to hold on. Fortunately, in the end, Li Yuan survived again, but Li Yuan himself knew that he might not have much time left, only one or two years at most.
Li Shimin listened to Li Yuan's inquiry, but he sighed in his heart: "Because Li Xiaogong disappeared from Chang'an, it was also taken away by Du Qi's people. In this Chang'an, if Du Qi wants to take away Su Dingfang's family, he should take Su Dingfang's family away; If you want to take away Li Jing's family members, you will also take away Li Jing's family members directly. Now, even Li Xiaogong's family is also taken away. So I arrested the merchants of Xia Kingdom and interrogated them one by one. Du Qi'an's eyeliner in Chang'an was wiped out.The rise of the Tang Dynasty has made Datang more and more dangerous, and it is very likely that this situation will really happen.
Li Shimin glanced at the direction Li Yuan was leaving, then looked at Fang Xuanling, and said, "Mr. Fang, you should go back and think about it, and think about what to do."
"The minister obeys the order!"
Fang Xuanling got up, said goodbye and left.
Li Shimin sat there for quite a while, he did not summon the civil servants and generals under his command, but went to the harem specifically to meet his eldest grandson Wugou. Although Changsun Wugou has always been ignorant of government affairs and does not interfere in political affairs, people are like this, the more you don't interfere, the more Li Shimin is willing to share with Changsun Wugou.
When Li Shimin arrived in the palace, he waved his hand, and all the maids withdrew.
Li Shimin looked at his eldest grandson Wugou, and said: "Guanyin servant girl, because Li Xiaogong and his wife disappeared quietly, they were taken away by Du Qi's people. I ordered the arrest of Xia Guo merchants for interrogation, and now Du Qi has arranged for someone to send a letter saying that If I don¡¯t release the merchants of the Xia Kingdom, I will assassinate the officials of the Tang Dynasty. With the current situation, I am also in a bit of a dilemma for a while!¡±
The eldest grandson Wugou got up, walked to Li Shimin's side, rubbed Li Shimin's temples, and said slowly: "Your Majesty, I don't know anything about government affairs. I only know that what Your Majesty does must have a reason There is a reason. No matter what His Majesty does, I will support His Majesty. No matter what, I want to be worthy of my heart and my ancestors. This is enough!"
After Li Shimin heard it, he paused.
A gleam flashed across his eyes.
Suddenly he burst out laughing, and immediately Li Shimin said: "Guanyin maidservant, you are right, I do things with a conscience, and with my ancestors, it is enough."
Changsun Wugou also had a smile on his face.
She is Li Shimin's wife, the woman behind Li Shimin, and she only needs to fully support Li Shimin.
After Li Shimin and Changsun Wugou talked, they strode away.
He already has a decision. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading? Add this book to your favoritesI'm a member and bookmarked this chapterCopy the address of this book and recommend it to your friends for pointsChapter error? Click here to report
