I, the military god of the Tang Dynasty, have risen since I destroyed the Turks

Chapter 468: Those who obstruct national policy will be beheaded!
this sentence.

But Li Zheng was sincere.

Moreover, from now on, living a hundred years is just Li Zheng's guarantee. When the Tang Dynasty can really create a Tang Dynasty on which the sun never sets, everything will be completely different.

Hear this.

The Kaiji officials and other officials around him all lowered their heads and dared not speak.

"Haha."

"If I could really live to be a hundred years old, I would watch my son Li Zheng establish the Tang Dynasty that never sets." Li Shimin laughed.

"Li Zheng said he would give me a surprise for my fiftieth birthday. It's only two years away, so I will give you, Li Zheng, a surprise then, too."

"With his abilities, he can become an emperor."

Looking at the prince in front of him, Li Shimin's heart was full of affirmation and approval.

"How are the other research going?" Li Zheng asked Kaiji.

"Return to your highness."

"I am leading many craftsmen from the Ministry of Industry to develop it with all our strength, but it will take time."

"Now I have only mastered the production of flintlock rifles."

"Please forgive me, Your Highness." Kaiji said in panic.

"fine."

"This is how weapons transform."

"You guys do your best. I'll give you whatever you need."

"I am looking forward to the Shenwu Cannon, but I am even more looking forward to the explosive bomb."

"When all these are accomplished, our Tang Dynasty will be able to conquer the world and create a Tang Dynasty that never sets."

"When the time comes, I will commend everyone in your Ministry of Works." Li Zheng patted Kaiji on the shoulder and encouraged him.

"Your Highness, I will never let you down." Kaiji bowed with determination.

Now the Ministry of Industry.

He did obtain a lot of resources, not only priority supply of various iron tools, but also silver and the authority to recruit craftsmen.

Li Zheng delegated all these powers to them.

What Li Zheng wanted was the finished products of various weapons.

"Li Zheng."

"How many weapons design drawings did you give to the Ministry of Works?" Li Shimin asked with a smile.

"Three or four things, each one is very useful." Li Zheng said with a smile.

"I'm very curious about what's in your head." Li Shimin sighed.

"Father."

"Not only the Ministry of Industry, I also gave some to the Imperial Hospital. Sun Simiao should also be working hard on the research now."

"Once we truly understand it, the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty will be blessed." Li Zheng said with a smile.

Li Shimin nodded and said, "Come on, as long as you give me a surprise, it's fine."

"In less than a year, you have brought me such a big surprise."

After the canonization.

Li Shimin has fully seen the changes that have taken place in the Tang Dynasty.

Seize the military power of the vassal kings.

The royal family worships the country.

Then there were commercial taxes and now fertile fields.

Because of his own prince, the entire court is now busy. The six ministries, the Inspector General, the Yulin Army, the Bad Guys, and all kinds of positions are very busy.

This was the case only in the early days when he took over the Tang Dynasty, but it never reached this point at other times.

"This is the memorial from the Ministry of Revenue requesting an increase in the salaries of officials. Take a look." Li Zheng took out a memorial from his arms and handed it to Li Shimin.

The latter took it and took a look.

Nodded: "It increased by 50%, not bad."

"What I mean is, it's too little." Li Zheng shook his head.

"Is this still too little?" Li Shimin was stunned.

"I plan to double the salary of all officials, so that no matter they are seventh-rank officials or first-rank officials, they don't have to worry about their families, and they can serve the Tang Dynasty wholeheartedly." "Of course."

"If I have given them such great favors, and they still dare to embezzle and abuse their power to bully others, I cannot tolerate that."

"Wait for a while."

"This salary policy can be implemented. After all, taking away their land is also a way to give them a little sweetness." Li Zheng smiled.

"Well, let's do it as you say." Li Shimin nodded.

Naturally, he believed in his own son.

The next day.

A major event occurred that shook the city of Chang'an and the entire world.

On the execution ground.

More than twenty high-ranking officials in the court were all dressed in prison uniforms, tied up, and escorted to the execution ground.

The execution ground was surrounded by people watching the fun.

"It's incredible."

"The person arrested this time is a high-ranking official of the imperial court."

"The Ministry of Revenue, the Ministry of Personnel, and the Ministry of Justice. I saw three assistant ministers."

"These are all high-ranking officials of the second and third ranks, true high officials of the imperial court."

"I don't know what crime they committed, but they were arrested yesterday and will be executed today."

"It's not just them. None of the officials arrested by the court this time are lower than the fourth rank. They are all high-ranking officials that we ordinary people can't even see."

"It is certain that they must have committed a serious crime, otherwise they would not have been punished so quickly. This must be an imperial decree..."

Looking at the officials being escorted to the execution ground, countless people were talking about it.

For the common people, they naturally don’t know much, but they know the majesty of the court and the power that these criminal officials once possessed, which are all beyond their reach.

At this time.

"Your Honor."

"All the imprisoned officials have been brought here, a total of 29 people, and all of them have been identified."

"Wait for your decision."

A clerk walked up to the Jingzhao Yin and said respectfully.

Jingzhao Yin raised his head, glanced at the sun hanging high in the sky, then slowly stood up, holding an imperial edict in his hand.

He comes out.

Holding the imperial edict, he said loudly: "The Emperor decrees by order of Heaven."

"In the past, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince decided to nationalize the land, and then distribute the land to the people based on household registration."

"And an imperial decree was issued, anyone who dared to hinder the implementation of this national policy would be guilty of an unforgivable crime."

"Today, there are 29 offending officials, all of whom are powerful officials in the court. For their own selfish interests, they are blocking the implementation of national policies."

"Now the bad guys have found out that the evidence is solid. With the order of the Emperor and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, all the officials who committed the crime will be identified and executed immediately. All the men in the family will be exiled to the border for hard labor, and the women will be imprisoned in the Jiaofangsi."

"This is to tell the world's powerful people that anyone who dares to block the implementation of national policies and prevent the people of the world from receiving benefits will never be forgiven."

As Jingzhao Yin's voice fell, all the onlookers immediately understood.

"Oh I see."

"They actually blocked the implementation of national policy. Damn it. Really damn it."

"Good farmland was nationalized, and my family was able to get a few acres of land. These powerful people just can't stand seeing us ordinary people getting along. They deserve to die."

"Yes."

"Your Majesty's Grace, Your Highness the Crown Prince's Grace."

"If it weren't for them, how could we have received such a blessing?"

"Kill, kill them."

"They all deserve to die."

Countless people roared in anger, and no one showed mercy to these criminal officials.

now.

Those officials who were once high and mighty and domineering now all lowered their heads with dejected looks on their faces, and many of them also had a look of regret in their eyes.
