Carefree Prince In Tang Dynasty

The Taiyuan Wang family can even be traced back to an ancient nobleman named Ji Jin, the prince of King Ling of Zhou. Up to now, countless famous figures in history have emerged. However, its final outcome is not very good.

An imperial decree departed from Chang'an and went straight to Shandong. Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu, who had just suppressed the Maitreya Sect with their army, took all the members of the Taiyuan Wang family, men and women, back to Chang'an along the way. The former home of Zhongming Dingshi has all been reduced to prisoners overnight.

Taiyuan Wang's crime of cooperating with the enemy and treasoning with the Turkic Youxian King in an attempt to overthrow the Tang Dynasty was announced to the world by Yousi. Given the solid evidence, there wasn't even a single person who dared to intercede for them. Faced with this situation, other aristocratic families only dared to protect themselves wisely and did not dare to mess with it.

The reason for this is not Li Shimin's anger.

To be honest, Li Shimin's anger alone was not enough to uproot such a big family as the Taiyuan Wang family. The most deadly thing is what they have messed with - collaborating with the enemy and treason, and they are uniting with foreign nations to take over the Central Plains. Although taking over the Central Plains is a long-term plan, as long as this idea is known, it will be heinous.

Chinese people have had a strong sense of honor and belonging to their own civilization since ancient times. No matter which family or party they belong to, no matter how fiercely they fight with each other, no one will deny that they and others are descendants of Yan and Huang, inheriting the same cultural blood.

It is not uncommon for each to be his master, and even in historical legends, being loyal to one's master is still a thing worthy of admiration. However, it is extremely shameful to betray one's own nation.

Frankly speaking, if the crime committed by the Wang family in Taiyuan today was called raising the flag to rebel, perhaps the public opinion among the people would not be so bad. But unfortunately, what they did was to unite a group of leftist barbarians to take over the Central Plains. Then there is no redemption. The turbulent public opinion toppled this super family that was once full of flowers like cooking oil overnight. When Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu dragged the gang of prisoners across Chang'an Avenue, some people threw foul-smelling rotten vegetable leaves on them.

By the way, eggs are never lost. This is a rare protein, and no common people living a life would be foolish enough to waste eggs on these people.

The deliberation process is short. After all, Li Shimin was a little more merciful, he didn't kill all these people, but only killed about a hundred people including the current head of the Wang family. All the other royal children were deprived of their fame, and the imperial court would not hire them again for life, and then they were sent to the frontier and exiled for five thousand miles.

The women and children of the Wang family could not escape the fate of being thrown into the Jiaofang Division again. But Li Shimin finally remembered Li Xin's pleading for mercy during the Shandong corruption case last time, he couldn't help but sighed, and ordered these girls to be assigned to various places in the palace to do coolies.

As for those children, Li Shimin ordered the establishment of a new yamen, which belongs to the Ministry of Punishment, and it is called "Gai Guo Ju". In the future, no matter what kind of crime they encounter, even if their entire family is murdered, all children under the age of ten will be exempted from all crimes. Don't even think about it, this is a punishment institution after all, not a welfare facility.

When Li Xin heard the news, he couldn't help feeling Li Shimin's great talent. With such a combination of kindness and power, the common people will only praise the emperor's name even more.

The result was indeed as Li Xin expected. The establishment of the reform made the ruling and opposition parties praise Li Shimin as a benevolent king through the ages.
