    Another charge was repelled by fierce firepower. Chai Lingwu looked reluctantly in the direction of the Daming Palace. The defense of the Daming Palace was strong. Now that half of the manpower was lost, it could not shake the defense at all. The sound of gunfire not far away became more and more intense.  As they get closer, Chai Lingwu seems to be trapped in darkness. Their plan has failed, and what awaits them will be the fate of the loser.  "Retreat, all retreat!" Chai Lingwu shouted, leaving Qingshan without fear of running out of firewood. After a brief period of fear, he made a desperate move and became a desperate gambler, deciding to continue to resist after evacuating.  After receiving his order, the remaining two thousand dead soldiers immediately escorted him and fled towards the north gate. Although these soldiers had long been aware of death, they still felt timid and ran away when faced with this killing method that seemed to harvest life.  He fled Daming Palace in panic, as if this place was hell.  The Central Army's attacks in the other three directions were very smooth. How could these improvised rebels be the opponents of the regular army? Along the way, the Central Army beat the rebels to pieces like they were destroying everything. Countless people surrendered.  Soon, the three armies converged in front of the Daming Palace, ending the battle in Chang'an City. At the same time, all the organizers of this operation were arrested.  "Your Majesty." After the important matter was decided, Li Min returned to the Daming Palace. All the ministers were surprised to see Li Min back. The worry on Cui Yingying's face melted like spring snow after seeing Li Min, and then darkened again.  She hated Li Min for not telling her about this in advance, which made her shed so many tears.  Li Min watched Cui Yingying look apologetic with a mixture of joy and irritation. Then he walked up the steps to the center of the hall and sat on the dragon chair. Now it was time to explain to these ministers.  "My dear friends, I am frightened. Not long ago, I learned that the rebels were preparing to assassinate me and subvert the Tang Empire. In order to lure the snake out of the hole and catch these rebellious officials and traitors, I deliberately used the plan. Let them think that their plan was successful, thus exposing them to  In front of the people of the world, now that the rebels have been defeated and all the bandit leaders have been imprisoned, you all can go home in peace," Li Min said loudly as he glanced at the ministers.  "That's it!" "These rebels are really abominable!" "They are simply audacious." "" Li Min's words caused the officials to talk a lot. Cui Shao wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said: "It's good that the emperor is safe. It's just that  I hope the emperor can tell us in advance what plans he has in the future. We were really frightened this time. " "Haha, I'm also worried that something like this won't happen again in the future."  Without notification, he also understood that it did make many people sad for him, especially Concubine Yang, who might inevitably be reprimanded by Concubine Yang.  Li Min is still fine, and the ministers are relieved and go back. In a few days, Li Min is going to convene the ministers to discuss matters in the morning, and at the same time deal with these rebellious people, so as to uphold discipline and shock the world.  After a while, the court broke up.  Dong Hao rushed over, and they successfully ambushed the remaining rebels. Chai Lingwu was also captured, and news of the defeat of the rebels came from all over the Tang Dynasty at the same time.  The farce was over in just a few days, but some things were far from over.  "The evidence that King Wei Li Tai participated in this rebellion is conclusive. The fact that he and Chai Lingwu led the dead men to murder the emperor sixteen years ago have also been found out. Chai Lingwu and Fang Yiai all confessed." In the Taiji Palace, Rongda stood in front of Li Min.  When talking to Li Shimin about the results of the investigation, Li Min once promised Li Shimin not to kill his brothers indiscriminately.  But Li Tai also wanted to hear Li Shimin's answer on how to deal with Li Tai's involvement in the rebellion.  Hearing this, Li Shimin seemed to have aged more than ten years immediately. The thing he had been worried about all these years still happened. Li Tai committed regicide, which was a serious crime of beheading. If it were other things, he could still plead for mercy, but only  Li Shimin could no longer tolerate this matter, because Li Min was the emperor now. If he continued to speak for Li Tai, what would Li Min think of him? He waved his hand and said: "Father is old, you can handle this matter yourself."  Decide." After that, he stood up and left slowly.  Li Min looked at Li Shimin's somewhat rickety figure and sighed softly. For the sake of the stability of the country, he could not be merciful at all this time. He only told Li Shimin about this matter, because no matter what Li Shimin's opinion was, Li Tai would not  He wanted to kill him. He couldn't tolerate the life of a person who wanted to kill him twice. After he inherited the throne, he was good enough to Li Tai, but he repaid his kindness with revenge.  In the morning of the next day, Li Min decided to announce the results of these people's treatment. At the same time, Li Min attacked the noble families who participated in the rebellion in the Tang Dynasty, confiscated their properties, and imprisoned them. As long as all those who participated in the rebellion were arrested,  Come on, although this rebellion caused certain losses to Datang, this rebellion also gave him an excuse to completely eradicate the influence of the noble clans in the country.The leftover forces of the Tang Dynasty allowed the nobles and nobles to touch the history of the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, Li Min ordered not to be merciful to these noble nobles who participated in the rebellion. He would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one go, and completely return the favor of the Tang Dynasty.  The universe is clear.  "Your Majesty, bring the prisoners." In the morning, the imperial guards reported to Li Min when they brought more than a dozen prisoners into the Daming Hall.  Li Min nodded. He glanced at the people below. They all had familiar faces. He said, "Look at these people. Among them are my brother, my sister, and my confidant."  Minister, just a few days ago, they plotted to murder me and replace me. It really chilled me. I was forced to leave Chang'an and went to Yizhou sixteen years ago. Time has passed sixteen years ago. From the King of Shu to the King of Chengdu  , then to the king of Shu, and finally to the throne as emperor. During these years, what actions have I taken that were not for the sake of the common people in the world, for the sake of the people of Ming Dynasty, and for your food and clothing, and what about you? Are you worthy of me? " There was silence in the court.  , all the ministers listened to Li Min's words, and cast disgusted eyes on these kneeling criminal ministers.  "Capitalist revolution, the pursuit of freedom, huh, are the hearts and lungs under your slogan really that clean? What you want is not just the word rights!" Li Min said angrily, "Ignore it for the sake of your ambitions.  Don¡¯t you feel a little guilty for the lives of millions of people?¡± After cursing for a while, Li Min felt more tired than ever before. He waved his hand and asked the guards to leave the prisoner who was shaking with fear. At the same time,  The eunuch read aloud Li Min's decision. Li Tai, Fang Yiai, Gao Yang and others who participated in planning the rebellion will all be executed. The property of the noble clans involved in the plot will be confiscated. Members of the clan within three generations are not allowed to serve as officials in the court. Li  The issuance of this order was tantamount to completely destroying the foundation of the noble family in the Tang Dynasty.  As for people like Shangguan Yi who did not rebel but had evil intentions at critical moments, Li Min dismissed them all and asked them to return to their hometowns and were not allowed to serve in the government. At the same time, he also carried out a purge of those with disloyal intentions in the Chang'an faction. This was also  Li Min did this deliberately. The Yizhou faction disintegrated with Shangguan Yi's dismissal from office, and the Chang'an faction also had to be weakened. He did not want to see the ministers controlling the government again and completely changed the old habits of the old officialdom.  In the court, Li Min dealt with these leading figures of the rebellion in public. In other places in the Tang Dynasty, the aftermath of the rebel incident continued. Many big businessmen were arrested. They were more or less involved in this matter, or provided financial support.  , or provide arms, and this round of attacks by Li Min also completely collapsed the big capitalist groups, allowing small capital among the common people to have room for development. Common people who had no chance before also participated in the competition for the market. At the same time,  Because of this rebellion launched in the name of capital, Li Min became wary of the capital market and further strengthened his control over the capital market. At the same time, various newspapers in the Tang Dynasty also analyzed the causes and consequences of this rebellion, exposing the  The true face of these people analyzed the harm caused by capital's control of the country, so that the people of the Tang Dynasty could have a clear understanding of this incident, lest such demagogic ideas have room to continue to exist.  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
