The clamor in the Imperial Court and the friendly and anti-enemy factions all had their own opinions.
They were instantly busy.
Although Lin Chuan had left Chang 'an, everything he had done still affected everyone in another way.
Whether it was his proposal of no marriage, no tribute, the military system of the Tang Empire, or the various plans of Chang 'an.
Even the construction of the Great Ming Palace had his shadow.
Li Shi Min didn't want to fight.
Whether he won or lost, he could not afford to lose.
In the end, he made a decision with a stern shout.
They waited for the diplomatic mission to enter the city and enter the North Palace Hall of the Imperial City.
This sentence caused the court to fall into a brief silence.
Many officials were furious because Li Shimin decided to bring the diplomatic mission into the palace.
It was true that the North Palace Hall in the Imperial City was a government office for foreign diplomatic missions to rest.
However, they were all here to pay tribute and submit.
But the Tibetans were different. With their strength, this marriage alliance could be said to be forcing the Great Tang to bow its head.
Letting them enter the Imperial City was a humiliation.
"If Your Majesty insists on this, we are willing to take off our robes and return to the fields!”
At this moment, some people eliminated the factional strife and the estrangement between the aristocratic families and the poor families.
Standing in the same position as Lin Chuan, they chose to resist.
Li Shi Min looked down at the hall and saw many officials leaving with a gloomy expression.
Among these people, there were disciples from Humble Class and aristocratic families.
There was even no lack of trusted aides that he had personally promoted.
Many people in the Great Tang had already regarded Lin Chuan as their national faith and his words as the creed of life.
If all of this was wrong, then Li Shiming still had a reason to retaliate.
However, everything Lin Chuan said and did seemed heroic from the perspective of the entire nation.
Yes, there are no generals in the army.
Who would lead the troops?
Only Lin Shuai's specially trained Western Expedition Army could adapt to the cold Tibetan Plateau.
100,000 troops could be sent to the west, and 90,000 would be buried.
The remaining ten thousand people were disheartened and scattered.
In the court, Wei Zheng drew his sword.
Under everyone's exclamations, he was still angry and uneasy. He slashed his sword at the stone pillar at the side.
He left a hateful sentence to Li Shiming.
"You can't assist a rotten ruler!”
"It's your turn to die in this dead end!"
……
……
Chang 'an City was busy in the following days.
The drastic change in the entire imperial court left everyone stunned.
Imperial Censor Wei Zheng's departure caused the position of Minister of Revenue to become vacant once again.
Li Shimin had no choice but to transfer Xiao Yu back from the Supreme Court and let him temporarily serve as the Minister of Revenue.
With the arrival of Zhangsun Chong and Zhang Shunde, almost all the dignitaries in Chang 'an had flocked to the Zhangsun family's door.
As a result, all the great clans of the Great Tang had sent people here, and the letters and invitations were like snowflakes.
There were rumors that even the current Crown Prince was not as noble as the current Zhangsun Chong.
He was slightly better than the Five Surnames and Seven Wangs.
In the Great Ming Palace.
Li Shimin looked at the letter Wei Zheng left behind and sighed.
He knew that the last bit of friendship between him and Wei Zheng was over.
What Wei Zheng had planned for him was to express his stance in the court and push Zhangsun's family to the forefront.
This way, he would be able to see just how much trouble the Zhangsun Clan could stir up in the Great Tang.
They could see how crazy the aristocratic families and nobles in the world would be because of this.
The result was obvious.
From the civil and military officers of the Imperial Court to the local officials and commoners, they all rushed over like ducks.
When Zhangsun Wuji saw Lin Chuan leave the court, he borrowed a foundation from all the aristocratic families in the world.
When there was no one in the court, he entered the trap.
A seed had turned from a sapling to a towering tree.
This snowball was getting bigger and bigger, and the aristocratic families were getting closer and closer to the Zhangsun Clan.
At this moment, Li Shiming could vaguely see the aura sweeping in all directions.
This was the foundation of the various aristocratic families that had been preserved for decades, centuries, or even thousands of years.
They were using the Zhangsun Clan's last spark to burn their last bit of life.
Move, the world will be in chaos!
If they did not move, the imperial power would be slowly eroded!
As for Wei Zheng, the last slash he had used in the Imperial Court had sent chills down Li Shimin's spine.
A hint of killing intent rose in his eyes.
"Xuancheng, are you hinting to me that I can't build without destruction?”
"The reason why such a huge storm has been stirred up is to arouse zhen's killing intent towards the aristocratic families.”
Li Shi Min murmured.
His burly body trembled slightly.
"Your Majesty, Lord Zhangsun is here."
A guard quickly walked in and reported softly.
Li Shi Min's eyes lit up as he said in a deep voice,"Pass!"
Soon, Zhangsun Wuji walked into the hall with a bitter face and a slightly swollen body.
He was holding two official seals in his hands.
"Your Majesty, you are truly a bitter old minister.”
"This is simply roasting this old minister over a fire!”
"Your Majesty, please take back these two official seals!”
He walked in front of Li Shi Min and knelt down.
How could he not understand what was going on?
Li Shiming wanted to see just how influential his Zhangsun Clan was in the Great Tang!
That was why Zhangsun Chong and Zhangsun Shunde were in power!
As a result, the Great Tang was in an uproar.
He understood Li Shiming, he would never allow the aristocratic families to have such power.
Therefore, Zhangsun Wuji was afraid. At least, while Li Shiming was still alive, their Zhangsun Clan could not reveal such a foundation.
Two official seals were placed in front of Li Shimin.
It was rare that Li Shiming didn't say anything.
Zhangsun Wuji did not dare to move.
He only occasionally raised his head and secretly observed Li Shiming's expression.
After a long time, Li Shi Min sighed and waved his hand.
Zhangsun Wuji's face lit up as if he had been granted amnesty. After kowtowing three times on the ground, he stood up and quickly left.
In the room, Li Shi Min stared at the two seals in a daze.
This showed Zhangsun Wuji's attitude and also caused the killing intent that had just risen to fall back down.
Two days later.
Zhangsun Shunde resigned and retired, but Zhangsun Chong was not dismissed.
Instead, he was placed in the Imperial Censorate and became the youngest censor in history.
Just like that, a war without any smoke quietly lay dormant again.
However, Li Shi Min knew very well.
Imperial power and aristocratic families were like an active volcano that would erupt sooner or later.
