Chengdu, Sichuan
After several days of investigation, some people were finally pulled out. Currently, there are a total of seven military generals ahead of Chang Sun Chong.
Although these people have not done anything wrong, Chang Sun Chong has obtained definite evidence that these people are preparing to oppose the Tang Dynasty court. In the past, he knew people's faces but not their hearts, and thought that these guys would not do anything too excessive. However, after a little investigation, he realized that these guys could do anything.
Take these generals in front of us for example. They were originally the troops of the chieftain in the mountains, and they were considered vested interests. However, after the chieftain was overthrown, these guys no longer had a good life, so they held a grudge against the Tang Dynasty.
These people only care about their own interests and have no regard for the interests of ordinary people. Look at these ordinary people today. Under the care of the Tang Dynasty, they can be said to be living a very good life, at least much better than before.
But did these generals see this? They only saw the gains and losses of their own power. Under the rule of the Tang Dynasty, they had no power at all. Although the Tang army gave them some positions, these plants could only be obtained by fighting on the battlefield, which was completely different from the original time.
You have to know that some of their original positions were given to them since birth. Now you can continue to do this position, but if you want your children to have this position, it is basically impossible, unless those people also go to the battlefield to fight and start as a soldier.
It is precisely because of this that they believe that their children no longer have much future. So under such circumstances, these people are ready to rebel against the Tang Dynasty court, hoping to gain independence by relying on their strongholds. Of course, some things are not up to them. Take Chengdu today as an example. If you want to rebel against the court, there will be very few people who will follow you.
These people are not fools. They also know that life has changed so much. If they follow you bastards to make trouble, I really don’t know what the final result will be. The Tang Dynasty court is very caring towards ordinary people, but if you want to rebel, the Tang Dynasty court’s knife is also very sharp.
So in this situation, the common people will naturally not follow their nonsense, but these people have their own power in the army. They have not been idle over the years and have been misleading people. Many people who are doing well in the army will naturally stay away from them.
But everything in this world is relative. When some people are doing well, there will definitely be some people who are not doing well. When those who are not doing well cooperate with each other, there will be a market among them. Fortunately, such an incident occurred on the northwest battlefield, which prompted the Tang Dynasty court to begin an investigation. If it had been delayed for another one to two years, I am afraid that some things would be hard to say, and these people would have become powerful enough.
"You all probably have nothing more to say. According to the imperial court's order, no one, including your family members, can leave any trace in this world except you. You may feel uncomfortable, but no one in history will protect rebels like you."
Chang Sun Chong watched coldly. They were still somewhat unwilling to accept the result. Considering that they had once contributed to the Tang Dynasty, Chang Sun Chong would not drag them out to behead them. After they died, he would just find a reason to bury them. The most important thing was that they still had a profound influence in the surrounding areas. If they were dragged to the city gate tower and beheaded, the impact would be relatively large.
King Li Ge of Shu next to him did not say anything. After all, this was in his territory. Although many things had little to do with him, but then again, there were some things that even if you didn't want to admit, you had to watch them here. After all, it was on your territory and you were the nominal owner of this land.
These people have been gagged. If they were released, they would probably have to greet the Tang Dynasty cordially. In order to prevent that scene from happening, Changsun Chong had no intention of letting them speak. I have told you everything I should tell you. Perhaps there is still some lack of evidence, but some things do not require evidence. As long as you have such thoughts, it will not be unfair to kill you.
Rulers of all dynasties could turn a blind eye to other things.
Rebellion is the only heinous crime that cannot be forgiven. No matter how enlightened the emperor is, or how good the morals of your court are, if you are found rebelling, it is only a matter of time before they kill you. If they don't kill your entire family, it is already a great courtesy.
King Shu Li Ke and Chang Sun Chong left the yard. The smell here would definitely be unpleasant, and the two of them would not stay here. The people under them were used to do dirty work, and they had to protect the two adults' faces, so they couldn't do many things. So after the two adults left, they took back their signature skills and made these people look like they had died accidentally.
Of course, Chang Sun Chong has made it very clear just now. Not pushing you out to be beheaded is already a great consideration for you, so you must drink every drop of poison wine. After you are all poisoned to death, those people will start to do their own work to ensure that you die in an accident and there will not be too much trouble after death.
"Maybe I've been away from politics for too long, and I'm tired of seeing this kind of scene. Maybe things like this happen all the time in Chang'an, but in Chengdu, I've always lived a peaceful life, and I like that. I'm afraid I can no longer accept the life in Chang'an."
King Li Ke of Shu opened his folding fan. He had to take this opportunity to say what he wanted to say. Although Li Xiang and Li Shimin would not target him, there were many ambitious people in Chang'an City. Since you are Li Shimin's son, when the dynasty changes, there will naturally be people who step on your shoulders to rise.
No matter what you did or didn't do at the time, as long as you can become a seesaw for others, you can forget about living a peaceful life.
