Chapter 1378: The Storm Rises (Part 2)
Three days later, with a gunshot in front of Wannian County Government, Ding Wencai's head almost turned into a rotten watermelon. His death was no less terrible than being cut in half, so that half of the perverts who came to watch the punishment vomited on the spot.
At the same time, Li Chengqian was squatting in the old man's study, sneaking into his sleeves with a good brush.
"You don't write calligraphy, is it useful to steal that?" Just when Li Chengqian thought he had done his job, the old man's voice appeared behind him.
"Uh..." Comrade Xiao Li turned around awkwardly and said embarrassedly: "Well, Father, this literary thief is not a thief. This is an elegant thing, and it will be a beautiful story if it is spread in the future."
"Okay, I dare to put it back for me." The old man glared at his son, then walked to the chair behind the table and sat down: "There are more than 80 memorials to impeach you now. This is not the resignation submitted by the prefectures and counties in the capital. What do you think I should deal with this matter?"
Li Chengqian, who was caught stealing something and showed up, put the old man's pen back in place, sucking his teeth and hesitating for a while: "The most important thing about impeachment is to stay and not be sent. As for the resignation... We, Datang, will we not have a resignation audit without leaving office?"
"What is the departure audit?" His Majesty Li Er looked at his son suspiciously.
"It is whether those officials have completed their work tasks during their tenure, and the financial situation in the yamen... These things must be tried first. They can't do what they want, and they can't just leave if they don't want to do it!" Li Chengqian said with a lip voice.
"Do you want to play with a single hand?" His Majesty Li Er understood what Li Chengqian meant in an instant, and gently buckled the table with his fingers, as if he was wondering whether it was feasible to do this.
"It's not a drag, it's a threat. I believe that none of these officials have clean under their butts. Just abuse of power can cut off half of their heads. We can take this opportunity to clean up these borers."
Being able to respond to the call of the aristocratic families to resign collectively during this period is enough to show many problems. Although the aristocratic families and the aristocratic families took this opportunity to show their strength, they also exposed what chess pieces they had among the lower-level officials.
Old Li narrowed his eyes slightly, and stopped by tapping the finger on the table: "How sure are you? What if someone incites to make trouble? I believe that after this incident, you can see how powerful the power of the aristocratic family is, and this is just the tip of the iceberg of their strength."
"They can incite the people, and we can also do it. The 'rebellious soldiers' are more difficult to control than the people. If they dare to incite the people, we can also give them a troubled waters. At that time, who these people will listen to will be a difficult thing to explain."
Li Chengqian has not considered the questions raised by the old man, and he believes that the old men of those aristocratic families will never have considered this. Similarly, the aristocratic families will also consider his way of dealing with them.
His Majesty Li Er clearly understood what Li Chengqian meant. While his expression changed slightly, he said with a warning: "This may be done, but it must not be done lightly unless it is absolutely necessary. Let it go first."
The old man is different from Li Chengqian. In his opinion, Xiao Li's current state is just like selling his father's land without feeling sorry. Anyway, he did not defeat the Tang Dynasty.
But His Majesty Li Er is different. As a personal experience of the war at the end of the Sui Dynasty, he experienced the chaotic times of no one and no one to crow a hundred miles. He did not want to let the Tang Dynasty fall into such chaos again in order to eliminate the aristocratic families.
This is like the companies in later generations. Although some companies are on the verge of bankruptcy due to human relations and debt relations, as the founders of the companies, they always want to save all this, rather than breaking them before establishing them.
After all, there is only one thing, that is, you can’t bear to let go, and you can’t bear to ruin the things you have worked hard to create.
Therefore, His Majesty Li Er has been maintaining the normal operation of the Tang Dynasty. Although he also wanted to eliminate the aristocratic families that fought for power with him, he had to accommodate them again and again for the stability of the Tang Dynasty.
"Here! My son obeys the order." Feeling the heavy tone in the old man's tone, Li Chengqian respectfully accepted the order. Although he was not sure why his father had been hesitating about the issue of aristocratic families, this did not affect the authority of Lao Li in his heart.
"I won't talk about this matter for the time being, what's going on with Li Yi Mansion? Why did you just let him go in Wannian County?" After suppressing Li Chengqian's strange ideas, His Majesty Li Er was concerned about the affairs of everyone in Wannian County.
"Li Yifu is a man who is very scheming, good at taking tricks, and unwilling to surrender to others. He believes that he can play an important role in this matter." Li Chengqian did not hide his evaluation of Li Yifu, to put it bluntly.
"Since you know that this person has so many shortcomings, why do you still need him?" His Majesty Li Er's expression was slightly dark.
"Father, just because such a person is easy to use, I need a clever person to deal with the next thing. People like Sun Fujia are not suitable."
The fundamental reason is that it is to stop talking between smart people. Li Chengqian does not need to explain why Li Yifu is easy to use, nor does he need to explain why Sun Fujia is not suitable for handling this matter. A simple sentence has already made Lao Li understand the whole story.
"Well. It's good that you can understand the key. But I remind you that if Li Yifu is really like you said, then this person is not a good minister."
"Yes! My son knows that this person can only be used as a restraint and will not be a leader."
The most exciting part of the old man's life is the employment of people, so Li Chengqian does not think there is anything wrong with Lao Li's suggestions, and also plans to do it according to his reminders.
"Just be sure of it yourself." His Majesty Li Er was very satisfied with Li Chengqian's attitude, but he soon remembered something again and looked at him and asked, "What's wrong with you coming here this time?"
"Father, I am here because of Li Yi Mansion this time." Li Chengqian said, taking out the appointment letter from Li Tai and put it on the old man's table: "You still need to stamp this thing."
"What is this?" His Majesty Li Er reached out to get the appointment letter, looked up and down and asked.
Li Chengqian knew that the old man was not asking the appointment letter itself, but asking his purpose, so he explained seriously: "I want the Li Yi Mansion to come out and muddle the water, and at the same time, it also helps me distract myself. This guy is born a good guy to cause trouble. With him in the middle, we will make us less passive."
