Drive the RV back to Datang

Chapter 632 Chapter 650: Play to death Taiyuan Wang
Li Hao just wanted to kill the Taiyuan Wang family. Li Hao has never been merciful to his enemies. This time, the Taiyuan Wang family was very courageous and dared to mess with him. Hao, don't miss this opportunity, time never comes again.

Li Shimin was also shocked by Li Hao's proposal. He was shocked that the Wang family actually had so much fertile land and so much money. You know, before the tax reform, Datang's annual tax revenue was only more than 100 million yuan. Since Hao proposed to fine Wang's 50 guan and five thousand mu of fertile land, it means that Wang's family property is far more than this amount. So how much property does Wang have? Li Shimin frowned, and he suddenly realized that he seemed to be It's too careless, a Taiyuan Wang family has such huge assets, wealth can rival the country, and there are so many powerful families in the Tang Dynasty. If they unite, Li Shimin can't imagine what the consequences will be.

As an emperor, the most worrying thing is that someone will rebel, so the emperor will be wary of anyone who has the power to rebel. Li Hao is rich, and Li Shimin knows it, but Li Shimin believes in Li Hao, because the throne was in front of Li Hao. Hao can get it by reaching out, but Li Hao didn't reach out, so now Li Shimin trusts him unconditionally.

But the aristocratic families are different. Li Shimin knows better than anyone what kind of urine these people are. The descendants of the old Li family are not capable enough, and the Tang Dynasty is in decline, and this group of grasshoppers may find another backer.

One of Li Hao's proposals reminded Li Shimin a lot. Li Shimin had secretly put all the powerful families on the dangerous list in his heart, and this was Li Hao's real purpose.

Just when the ministers were discussing in amazement, Changsun Wuji came out and said: "Your Majesty, although the Wang family in Taiyuan made a big mistake, Wang Gan has already obeyed the law. I hope that your majesty will give you a lighter sentence. If the Wang family is really fined 50 guan Money and [-] acres of fertile land, I am afraid that the Wang family will collapse and perish."

Li Shimin frowned when he heard the words. It has been a long time since Changsun Wuji took the initiative to speak in the court, but this time Changsun Wuji's words made Li Shimin unhappy. Changsun Wuji failed to figure out his thoughts on Li Shimin this time.

Li Shimin is a wise king of a generation. As an emperor, he must first consider the Li family's country. He has now realized that the powerful family is a potential threat to the Tang Dynasty, just like a cancer growing on a human body. But there is no guarantee that it will not happen in decades or hundreds of years. No matter how good the relationship between Changsun Wuji and him is, it is useless.

In history, there are many examples of foreign relatives usurping the imperial power. In the past, Li Shimin was strong and strong, so he naturally attracted his eldest grandson Wuji as his confidant, but now Li Shimin knows that his time is numbered, and he must plan for his own affairs after death, even after many years. In terms of love, he doesn't mess with Changsun Wuji, but he must also guard against Changsun Wuji.

Regarding Changsun Wuji's pleading for the Taiyuan Wang family, Li Hao also frowned. Changsun Wuji's behavior today is very abnormal. He has already pleaded for the Taiyuan Wang family twice. It stands to reason that Changsun Wuji should be afraid of himself, after all Holding his pigtails, he dared to intercede for Wang Shi. You must know that Wang Shi is going to mess with him this time, Li Hao.

Although he sensed the abnormality of Changsun Wuji, Li Hao didn't speak. He wanted to see who else would intercede for Taiyuan Wang.

Next, Chu Suiliang also interceded for Wang, and Yu Zhining interceded for Wang...

There were eight or nine people pleading for Wang's mercy one after another, and it didn't stop. At the end, Li Zhi who was sitting on the side suddenly stood up and said, "Father, although Wang's crimes are serious this time, I still want to ask my father for help." Can extrajudicial favors halve the punishment proposed by King Qiongnan?"

Li Zhi also interceded for the Wang family. Li Hao was surprised for a while, but then he figured it out. Li Zhi's princess is from the Taiyuan Wang family. As the son-in-law of the Taiyuan Wang family, it is reasonable for Li Zhi to intercede for the Taiyuan Wang family. , it makes sense, besides, Li Zhi only asked for the punishment to be halved, which is not too much to ask.

So many people pleaded for the Taiyuan Wang family, which made Li Shimin very unhappy and embarrassed him. He turned to look at Li Hao and said, "Shi Kuang, Zhu Qing, you think the punishment you proposed is too heavy. Do you have something to say? ?”

Li Hao smiled slightly when he heard the words, cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, the punishment proposed by the minister is too light."

As soon as this remark came out, there was an uproar in the audience, five thousand acres of fertile land! 50 coins!He even said that the punishment was too light, which has overturned the cognition of the ministers, because among all the ministers present, there are only a handful of households with a family income of more than 50, let alone [-]. It is simply astronomical. No one has the leisure to count the property of these powerful families, so they don't know how rich these powerful families are.

Li Shimin also asked in surprise: "Too light? Are you joking?"

"Above the main hall, how dare I make jokes." Li Hao shook his feather fan lightly, and said solemnly, "Your Majesty, perhaps even Your Majesty is not aware of the huge wealth of the aristocratic family, so today I will spread the word to Your Majesty and all colleagues present here. According to preliminary statistics, the land property of the Wang family in Taiyuan should be no less than 80 mu. As for the cash, hey, no one else can check it, but I know a thing or two. The money deposited by the Wang family in the Datang Bank is 300 Wan Guan, as for how much cash they have in their family, this minister doesn't know. In addition, the Wang family has many manors and shops. Adding up these, it is estimated that they can be worth more than [-] million guan, plus the grain stored in those shops , goods, etc., hehe, it’s really not easy to calculate.”

What Li Hao said made the ministers dumbfounded. This series of astronomical figures frightened them, and they were not lightly frightened. Many people have a hatred of wealth. The same is true, they suddenly felt that they were so stupid, their family didn't even have [-] yuan, but it was so ironic to intercede for a person with millions of fortunes, so everyone silently silently.

After listening to Li Hao's words, Li Shimin frowned even tighter, and said in a deep voice, "Taiyuan Wang... has such a huge family property?"

Li Hao smiled and said: "If your majesty doesn't believe it, why not search the Wang family and check it carefully, then you will know whether what I said is true. Although Wang's land property is not as good as that of the Boling Cui family, when it comes to money, there is more money." Much more than Boling Cui's."

At the beginning, when the Boling Cui family was raided, the cash they got was only more than 40 guan. The largest family property of the Boling Cui family was land property, with 75 mu of land. Note that after entering the accounts of the Ministry of Households, Li Shimin forgot that the land property of the Wang family in Taiyuan is not as good as that of the Cui family in Boling, which is estimated to be only 15 mu. Business requires a lot of working capital. Generally speaking, the family property of the Wang family in Taiyuan is no less than that of the Cui family in Boling, and Li Shimin was shocked by the huge amount of cash in the Wang family.

Hearing Li Hao's proposal to seize the Wang family, Li Shimin was very moved. At this time, as long as a few more ministers seconded, he immediately made a decision to search the Wang family.

Changsun Wuji heard the words and said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, it is absolutely impossible. The Wang family has made great contributions to the country. If the Wang family is confiscated for such a trivial matter, I am afraid that the hearts of the nobles in the world will be chilled!"

Chu Suiliang and another person also stepped forward to support the proposal and objected to the confiscation of the Wang family. After all, for such a large family, as long as it was not a crime of treason, the family property would not be confiscated.

Li Shimin sighed secretly when he heard the words, it seems that Wang's huge family property will not be available.

Seeing the disappointed look on Li Shimin's face, Li Hao's eyes lit up, he suddenly smiled slyly, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, I just said that the punishment proposed by me is too light, why don't you... double it."

Hiss—— Baiguan gasped again, Li Hao really wanted to kill Wang, tenfold?That's 500 mu of fertile land, [-] million yuan!God!crazy!
Li Shimin didn't give the ministers any time to react, and responded loudly: "Quick play!"

All the ministers were stunned when they heard the words, is this the right thing to do?So sloppy?

Changsun Wuji was extremely anxious when he heard the words, and just about to speak, Li Shimin raised his hand and said without doubt: "You don't need to persuade me any more! Taiyuan Wang's crimes are extremely heinous, and I'm just giving such a small punishment, which is very merciful. Persuasion, yes, the Wang family will reduce the fine, and those who advise will make up for it!"

As soon as this remark came out, Changsun Wuji's words stuck in his throat, and he didn't dare to say it, so he fined Mrs. Wang?Unless he is stupid, that is money in units of millions, and fields in units of ten thousand mu. His eldest grandson's property is only about [-] acres. Wuji said that he was short of financial resources, let alone other ministers.

Today the court was over, Li Hao and Changsun Wuji walked in the front, one on the left and the other on the right, they seemed to be the two most powerful big men in the court, the officials looked at their backs from behind, and couldn't help sighing secretly, how long ago , Changsun Wuji is calling the wind and rain in the court, Li Hao is just a little bastard making jokes, but now, Li Hao has already fought against Changsun Wuji, faintly overshadowing Changsun Wuji, the most important thing is that Li Hao is in the prime of youth On the other hand, Changsun Wuji was old, his body was bent, his beard and hair were white, and he was old.

Walking out of Zhuque Gate, Changsun Wuji suddenly turned his head to look at Li Hao, and Li Hao just turned his head to look at him. The two looked at each other, and Li Hao suddenly grinned coldly: "Master Changsun, you have become more courageous today."

Changsun Wuji laughed dryly, and said: "I have been restrained by you for many days, and the old man is finally freed. From now on, the old man will fight you to the end in the court."

Li Hao smiled indifferently, and said slowly: "That's fine, singing a one-man show is too boring. There are many opponents, you can't ask for it, but, Mr. Changsun, you are also a person who has experienced the situation. You should know that there is no free dinner in the world. There is no free dinner in this world. Who will help you aimlessly."

"What do you mean?" Changsun Wuji frowned suddenly.

Li Hao smiled and said: "What do I mean... Master Changsun is very clear in his heart." After speaking, he turned and left.

Changsun Wuji stood there with a cloudy face, as if he was thinking about something.

Situ Feng and a few special forces were leading the horse and waiting for Li Hao on the side of the street. Li Hao walked over and got on the horse. Cheng Yaojin, Li Ji and Qin Qiong rode over. When Li Hao saw Cheng Yaojin, he hurriedly said: : "Uncle Cheng, you came just in time, I was just looking for you."

Cheng Yaojin wondered, "Looking for me? What's the matter?"

"Let's go, let's go to your house first." Li Hao said as he drove his horse towards Cheng Yaojin's house.
