"King Li Yan started a massacre in Lingnan?"

Li Shimin put down the memorial and shook his head and sneered. He could not hide the matter of Lingnan at all. Liusanmen sent a large number of spies, inserted many spies, and stared at Lingnan day and night. Not to mention that Li Chao was in Lingnan, who was unreliable, just saying that His Royal Highness was in Lingnan was enough for Liusanmen to do his best.

Fang Xuanling had already read this memorial, "Your Majesty, it's just the heroes in Lingnan who want to put pressure on Li Sanlang to stop."

"Stop? Why should I stop? Wen Yuan did it in Lingnan, exactly what I sought day and night, and it was something the Central Plains court had never done for thousands of years."

The process of changing the gui Mi to Zhili and changing the local officials to the riot officials will inevitably be accompanied by bloodshed. Not to mention that there are not many bleeding now, the two rebellions were quickly quelled. Even if the Lingnan people were killed, it would not affect the overall situation, Li Shimin would not change his current attitude.

In the hall, all the prime ministers were sighing that Li Chao was really amazing. In Lingnan, he went to cut the mess quickly and pacified it quickly with an iron-blooded posture.

Iron-blooded, tough.

There is no compromise or concession.

Moreover, Li Chao was strong and tough and strategic. From the Feng Xuan Rebellion in Changzhen, Feng Xuan, who entered Lingnan, only seized the Qinhe land, to step by step strengthening the imperial court's control on the coast, and then to attacking the Feng family.

Finally, he closed the net against Feng Xian and eliminated them in one fell swoop, and now he forced the Chen family to submit.

A model operation.

Now Chen, Ning and some people are complaining about Li Chao's abuse of heroes, how he was bloodthirsty, etc. Li Shimin is too lazy to pay attention to it. If he has to pay attention to it, the only possibility is that Li Chao can't control the situation and Lingnan is out of control. How could he change his mind in such a good situation in Lingnan?

"Your Majesty, I want me to tell you, just transfer Ning Xuan, Ning Chun, Chen Zhiluo and Chen Longshu to the capital, and give them a duke of the country, and then give them a second-rank rank and a free position, so that they can be raised in the capital from now on." Changsun Wuji said unceremoniously.

Li Chao made drastic reforms in Lingnan, and the Changsun family also received many promises. Leizhou Peninsula and Leizhou Port are the benefits of the Changsun family. The Changsun family also obtained shares in Xin'anzhou Coal Mine and Nanhai Iron Factory. It can be said that the Changsun family has divided the big cake of Lingnan.

Of course he was willing to support Li Chao in the court.

"Dear friends, what do you think of the council that Li Chao has built in Lingnan?"

Li Shimin noticed the Lingnan Parliament and found that the parliament was divided into multiple levels, similar to the chamber of commerce. The Lingnan Parliament included four Lingnan roads, but Vietnamese road actually only had one Vietnamese enclave, so Lingnan actually had three roads. Guangnan, Guangxi, Guangdong, each road contains more than ten states. There are three Guangxi Parliament under the Lingnan Parliament, and the State Parliament under the Road Parliament, and the County Parliament under the State Parliament.

The members of the parliament at each level are not officials appointed by the court. They are elected by the local government like the chamber of commerce. They are all Han li and new immigrants, well-known figures in the business circles, and even officials of the court are elected by the parliament.

In a word, this parliament is an elite that includes all ethnic groups in the Han Dynasty, as well as scholars, farmers, industrial and commercial classes.

Such a group of people organized the formation of Lingnan-Dao-Prince-County level, which made Li Shimin wary.

This is an organization that is not under the control of the court.

Li Chao's explanation of the parliament in his report to the court is a dialogue mechanism that communicates with all parties in Lingnan and controls the chaotic situation. It is a buffer in the process of Lingnan's direct control from being in vain to the present.

"Your Majesty, I have also studied the establishment of this method. This parliament is still relatively active at present and is of great help to the court in controlling Lingnan." Ma Zhou said.

Changsun Wuji opposed, "I think this parliament is completely unnecessary. Lingnan affairs are naturally managed by officials and officials at all levels of the court. In addition to the government, there is another parliament. What's going on? Is the parliament going to interfere in local government affairs?"

Ma Zhou said, "As far as I know, the parliament is only a communication function and does not invade the responsibilities of the government. Now Lingnan is not as good as the Central Plains, and it is impossible to change land and return to the current situation in one step. Lingnan is already mixed with the foreign and Han dynasties, especially the Liyao has a strong power and many tribes. Management is relatively difficult, and it is more convenient to have such an exchange and consultation organization."

Fang Xuanling proposed, "It is better for the court to appoint speakers at all levels of the parliament in Lingnan to appoint speakers at all levels, and the court will also be appointed by the court, so that the decision will also be controlled."

His meaning is that the parliament, as a temporary organization in the current transitional stage of Lingnan, can be temporarily retained. After the situation in Lingnan is controlled in the future, the court will dismiss the parliament.

"I also support Fang Prime Minister's proposal. I will add that local officials are not allowed to serve as members of parliament." Du Ruhui added.

It is a matter of position to prevent officials from serving as members of parliament. Officials of the court are only governed by the court and cannot be led by such a civil parliament.

At the same time, the parliament must be appointed by the court to the president and elect a director.

In short, the parliament can exist, but it must be under the leadership of the court.

Li Shimin pondered for a long time before finally agreeing with the opinions of several prime ministers. Parliament can be established, but it must be under the leadership and supervision of the court.

"Who will be the Speaker of the Lingnan Parliament?" asked the emperor.

All the prime ministers bowed their heads. Since this parliament was established by Li Chao, Li Chao is now the highest official in Lingnan. Of course, Li Chao should be the Speaker of this Lawshizi.

But now the emperor is in front of everyone and who will serve as the speaker. This is very obvious. The emperor does not want Li Chao to be the speaker.

Some people suggested Wang Gui, some people suggested Cui Renshi, and some people suggested Yang Shidao.

Changsun Wuji said, "Your Majesty, in the opinion of the minister, the parliament can only be set to the state level."

The Lingnan Parliament manages the Lingnan Sandao Parliament. No matter who is sent to be the speaker, what level is this? It can't be higher than the Sandao Propaganda Envoy, right?

After all, the parliament is not a formal official organization.

Moreover, the parliament that manages the three departments has too much authority.

Li Shimin nodded.

"What the auxiliary machine said makes sense. There is no need to set up a Lingnan Parliament, just set up three levels of Daozhou and county. As for the candidates for the three-department speaker, Li Shimin thought for a long time and finally planned to select officials from the court to go there, and select a few officials with older age and experienced services to go there. In terms of level, it is designated as the third department envoy, and the Dao Council and the Dao Sansi were on the same level, and the Xuanfu Envoy was led by the Xuanfu Envoy."

"The division of responsibilities of the parliament needs to be clarified. My dear friends will discuss it in detail and come up with a charter."

The imperial meeting ended.

Li Shimin returned to the inner court and went directly to the queen's palace after changing clothes.

The queen had just given birth and was in confinement. But she looked very good. When he came in, the queen was feeding the child.

"Shisanlang is breastfeeding again. Every time I come, he is breastfeeding or sleeping."

The queen smiled, "Isn't this the case with the little baby?"

"This kid ate and slept all day long, and he looked so chubby." Li Shimin came over to tease his son, but Li Shisanlang ignored him at all.

Li Tai, the little fat man next to him, stared at his younger brother, and was still a little envious.

"Have you thought of a name for Thirteen Lang?"

Li Shimin looked at the third son with a smile in his eyes. This was his thirteenth son and the eleventh son who had survived. The child was less than a month old, and he named him Zhinu as soon as he was born. Now he grows more and more likable. He stares at him who is raising breasts with peace of mind, "Zhinu, why not name it Zhinu."

"Li Zhi." The queen read it several times and thought the name was good. She had a third son, and the eldest son was called Chengqian, the second son was called Li Tai, and now the third son was called Li Zhi.

Li Zhi fell asleep while eating milk.

The queen couldn't help but chuckle.

Li Shimin took Li Zhi from the queen and asked the queen to organize her clothes.

"Lingnan has been pacified, and the Tang Dynasty truly owns the land of Lingnan. I am very happy. I plan to be king of Zhinu."

After quelling the Hanjing Rebellion, Li Shimin also granted the title of eight heroes to serve as kings, and at the same time demoted the royal family. Now the royal family is only one prince Li Tai, plus seven county princes.

The current rule is that only the legitimate son is granted a prince. Li Chao is an exception. He has a king with a different surname and a prince.

Since the Wei and Jin Dynasties, the titles and titles were actually intended to be granted according to the titles of the countries during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Among the princes, the four kings of Qin, Jin, Qi and Chu were the most honorable. Next were the kings of Zhou, Lu, Zhao, Wei, Liang, Yan, Dai, Han, Song, Wu, and Yue.

There are only two princes in the Tang Dynasty now, one is King Li Tai of Jin, who was originally named King Wei, and the other is King Li Chao of Yue, who is originally named Duke of Zhao.

"The Qingque was appointed King of Qin, the Zhinu was appointed King of Jin, and the Li Chao was appointed King of Zhao!"

Li Shimin smiled after pondering.

"Your Majesty was the King of Qin before the Emperor Yuji. I'm afraid it's inappropriate to designate Qingque as King of Qin." The queen said.

Li Shimin was the King of Qin before. After Li Yuan became emperor, he became the crown prince during his feudal period, Shimin became the King of Qin and Yuan Ji became the King of Qi. He did not establish King of Jin, which was also avoiding Yang Guang's intention to be King of Jin.

Generally speaking, if Li Shimin was the King of Qin before he proclaimed himself, then if he did not immediately appoint the crown prince, he could generally grant the eldest son the title of the king before he proclaimed himself, such as establishing Chengqian as the King of Qin.

Otherwise, the title of King Qin would not be granted again.

But now, Li Shimin actually wants to grant the title of King Qin to the second son of Li Tai. The queen is worried that this will convey some wrong information?

"I think it's pretty good." Li Shimin now likes Li Tai very much. He thinks this child is smart and smart. Although he is a little fat, he will only look more cute when he is a child.

He felt that Li Tai looked very much like him, the second son in his family, smart, etc.

King Li Tai of Qin, King Li Zhi of Jin, and King Li Chao of Zhao.

On that day, an edict was issued in the palace, and the Hanlin Academy drafted the edict. Then the prime ministers under the Secretariat signed the letter and stamped the seal of the Secretariat, and then presented it to the imperial front. Li Shimin signed the name with the jade seal.
