Summon the Mythical Emperor of the World

Chapter 18 The Prince of Tang Dynasty!

Li Si never imagined that the land system of the Tang Dynasty had such a big hidden danger!

Although, the laws of the Tang Dynasty prohibited the sale of land!

The effect is weak!

The people can't pay the tax, they can only sell the land!

For the people who lost their land, the only way out is to go to the landlord's house to help the crops, so as to get paid and support themselves.

Perhaps, the first generation of people who sold their land still had a sense of awe for the Tang Dynasty.

Know who the Tang Emperor is!

What about the second and third generation?

These people, since birth, have lived under the command of the landlord family.

They don't even know which dynasty it is today!

Faced with this situation, how could Li Si not be angry!

Li Si realized that the Tang Dynasty at this time was terminally ill and rotted to the roots.

No medicine can cure it!

In fact, the annexation of land has happened in all dynasties.

Numerous reforms and new laws also revolve around land.

Unfortunately, few have been fully implemented.

Because the resistance is too great!

If we really get to the bottom of it, which of the civil and military officials in the courtroom was not involved?

Which hand does not have thousands of acres of land?

If you want to reform, if you want to implement new laws, you will be the enemy of civil and military officials!

Against the whole world!

As a result, most of the reforms and new laws are stillborn.

There are few that can be barely implemented, and only limited to a certain range.

For the whole country, little effect!

Li Si understood this and asked the minister of households to only count the land in the world.

For those landlord families, if they only count the land, even if there is resistance, it will not be too big.

In addition, there should be no problem with Cao Zhengchun's secret supervision.

Li Si watched Cao Zhengchun take the order and leave, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

just wait!

When the land statistics are completed, I want you, the aristocratic family, to know what is the emperor's anger!

What is the power of a great country!

...

at the same time!

King Liang and others traveled day and night, and finally came to Shu.

Along the way, King Liang saw with his own eyes that under the influence of the drought, the people of Shu were empty of ten rooms and nine, and the people were struggling to live!

Dozens of people compete for a steamed bun!

A scrawny woman knelt in front of the carriage and begged the King of Liang to take away her child, who was only a few months old.

Because, the woman knew that when she was starved to death, this child would definitely be eaten by the hungry and mad villagers!

Man eats man, father eats son!

Howling all over the place!

It's like hell on earth!

King Liang was silent!

"This is my Tang people?"

"This is my Tang Dynasty?"

King Liang got out of the carriage and took the woman's child in his arms.

At this moment, King Liang's heart was hit by an unprecedented shock.

He has always lived in Chang'an City, when did he see such a tragic scene?

Even in his books, from the mouths of the ministers in the court, he knew that the people in the disaster area had been miserable, but that only stayed in his ears.

When he experienced all this in front of him, he realized that no matter how much he heard, it was far better to see it with his own eyes.

"My Tang Dynasty is the upper country of the Celestial Dynasty, and the people are the most prosperous in the world. This scene must not continue to appear on the territory of my Tang Dynasty!"

King Liang's eyes were unprecedentedly firm!

Although he is not the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, King Liang has royal blood, and is the prince of the Tang Dynasty. Since childhood, he has been fascinated by his eyes and ears.

King Liang absolutely does not allow it, and everything in front of me continues to happen!

"Faster faster!"

King Liang returned to the carriage.

The other princes looked at each other,

Be silent.

They were also shocked by the scene in front of them!

After half a day!

The prefect of Shu and many other officials gathered outside the prefect's mansion to welcome the princes of the Tang Dynasty!

"I have seen King Liang!" The prefect of Shu said respectfully, "I have prepared a banquet for several princes, please move..."

The prefect of Shu said uneasy.

Although the majesty in Chang'an City had a decree for several princes to preside over disaster relief matters, how could the prefect dare to let Prince Liang take over!

If something goes wrong with the princes during the disaster relief, who will be responsible?

The lord is the body of all gold!

There can be absolutely no surprises!

At this time, the prefect of Shu only hoped that the princes would stay in the prefecture's mansion, not to cause trouble, and wait until the disaster relief was over. After sending the princes back to Chang'an in their entirety, they would be satisfied!

"Feast of the wind?" King Liang frowned.

Where is he in the mood to participate in the reception banquet?

"You all leave!"

"The reception of the wind banquet has been canceled, and I am busy with my own business!" King Liang waved his hand and walked directly into the prefect's mansion.

In the prefect's mansion.

King Liang's face was serious, and he looked at the governor of Shu: "How is the situation in Shu now? Are the disaster relief food in place?"

"Have the city gates opened wide to accommodate refugees in the nearby areas?"

"Also, can the plague issue be resolved?"

The prefect of Shu was stunned for a moment, and then his expression became solemn: "His Royal Highness, the disaster relief food is His Majesty's personal order, and it should be in place as soon as possible. All regions, according to His Majesty's orders, began to accept refugees. As for the plague, the imperial doctors discussed new prescriptions. , can cure the plague!"

The prefect of Shu said!

When King Liang heard the words, he suppressed his anger: "If this is the case, why is there no relief from the disaster outside?"

"People still can't get food for disaster relief?"

The prefect of Shu was terrified: "His Royal Highness, there is no need to rush the disaster relief food!"

"What do you mean?" King Liang asked.

"The drought lasted for a month. I don't know how many victims died of starvation. The people's grievances are boiling. The people who are still alive have long lost their trust in my prefectural government."

"If we open the granary rashly, if we are lucky, it can really alleviate the disaster..."

When the prefect of Shu said this, he paused for a while and then said bravely: "But once the situation changes, it is very likely to cause a riot..."

As soon as this is said!

King Liang's expression changed!

really!

The prefect was right!

Once a riot is triggered and a chain reaction occurs, it will not only affect the land of Shu!

At that time, the prefect of Shu will be the sinner of the Tang Dynasty!

"In the end, it's still the people's grievances!"

King Liang sighed softly: "Go ahead and open the granary immediately to help the refugees!"

There was a determination in King Liang's words: "Inform the people of the identity of this king and let them know that the king of the Tang Dynasty is here!"

"This king will personally preside over the disaster relief!"

"If the people have any questions, they can come to this king!"

"You can't pacify this monstrous grievance, this king will pacify it!"

"People's grievances are uneven, and the disaster is not slowing down. I, Li Zhen, will not return to Chang'an for the rest of my life!"

King Liang said seriously.

The prefect of Shu was shocked: "Your Highness is absolutely impossible!"

"In case of a riot, Your Highness will be safe..."

"Do you dare to disobey this king's decision?" King Liang frowned.

The prefect of Shu was at a loss for words, and finally said with a solemn expression: "The minister obeys the order!"

"One more thing!" King Liang suddenly thought of something and said.

The Prefect of Shu bowed his head: "Your Highness, please speak!"

"If anything happens to me, tell the emperor..." King Liang took a deep breath: "I, the prince of Tang Dynasty, inherit the glory of our ancestors..."

"I am the prince of Tang Dynasty, there is no waste!"
