Signing in to Datang: Rebellion at the beginning

Chapter 109
The battles outside are coming to an end one after another.

The news of Li Er's suicide spread rapidly.

When countless ministers of Tang State heard the news, they all understood that Tang State was gone.

Some ministers who were very loyal to Li Er were very sad.

And some other ministers began to make plans for themselves.

In addition to these courtiers who began to assess the situation, some families and aristocratic families in the Tang Kingdom also began to operate, preparing to think about how to continue to take root in the new dynasty.

These, in Li Ke's view, are not important.

He didn't win over those ministers, nor did he pay attention to those aristocratic families.

Because in his opinion, managing a country, these people, is not the point.

Even from a certain point of view, the aristocratic family will threaten the imperial power and poison the people with tea.

Therefore, not only will they not win over the aristocratic family, but even in the future, they will destroy the aristocratic family.

Of course, now Li Ke is more concerned about the people.

The Tang State is very large, and after it is ruled, it is necessary to let all the people return to their hearts.

In this regard, Li Ke already has experience.

Therefore, he summoned generals and ordered soldiers to replace some important guards, and asked Zhao Yang and Li Yong to immediately stabilize the situation in Chang'an and nearby cities.

Anyone who disobeys the Dragon Kingdom will be shot to death.

But for the people, they cannot be harmed at will.

Moreover, Li Ke introduced some policies, probably using the various salt, sugar, vegetables, fruits and foods of Longguo as a gimmick, and vigorously distributed them to the whole country.

As I said before, the common people may not care who is the emperor, nor do they care about changing dynasties.

They only care about living well or badly.

Undoubtedly, Li Ke's approach is to benefit the people and implement a benevolent government!
Only in this way can the common people not be aroused to resist and let the common people accept the rule of the Dragon Kingdom.

Li Ke has already used these policies in Youzhou and other places.

The effect is very good, so Li Ke can use it again and again.

The seeds of the Dragon Kingdom, Quyuanli, sugar and salt were quickly introduced to the Central Plains.

The policies promulgated by Li Ke were also issued quickly and became known to the common people.

Ever since, the common people began to look forward to these things brought by the new emperor.

After all, they have also heard that the people of the Dragon Kingdom are easy to farm, have a lot of vegetables and fruits, and have all kinds of food.

And without worrying about salt, you can still eat sugar.

This makes the people of the Central Plains very envious.

Therefore, it is natural to look forward to introducing these to the Central Plains.

It is precisely because of this that the common people have expectations and turn their attention away, allowing Li Ke to easily pass through the transitional period of his just rule.

Ever since, in the next period of time, the rule was completed very quickly.

Originally, Tang's frontier garrison surrendered.

Those who were willing to continue to serve, Li Ke assigned them to various county governments, obviously not daring to reuse them.

Those who are unwilling to serve will be dismissed and returned to the fields, and Li Ke will not pursue it.

In addition, the soldiers of the Dragon Kingdom began to take over the border gates, using cannons and bombs as the deterrent weapons for the border gates.

At the same time, Li Ke directly ordered to move the capital.

Historically, Chang'an was not a particularly good administrative headquarters, although it was closer to Tubo, Turks, and Tuyuhun.

However, Li Ke is not worried about these alien races.

Therefore, Li Ke ordered to move the capital to Youzhou.

That is, later the Beiping area.

After all, the area of ​​the Dragon Kingdom is too large today.

It reaches the original Khitan in the east, the original Goryeo in the north, Longxi in the west, and Lingnan in the south.

If the imperial capital is established in Chang'an, it will be difficult to control the east, north, and south.

Besides, the Dragon Kingdom still has an imperial capital in Goguryeo. Now that the Dragon Kingdom has conquered the Central Plains and completed the great unification, if the imperial capital is still in Goryeo, it would be too far away.

In Chang'an, it is too far away.

Therefore, a compromise, Youzhou Yanjing, is the best place.

After making this decision, Li Ke ordered that Chang'an be renamed Xi'an and establish Xi'an Mansion.

At the same time, Pyongyang, the original imperial capital of the Dragon Kingdom, was changed to Pyongyang Prefecture.

Youzhou Yanjing is the new imperial capital of the Dragon Kingdom, that is, the capital!
This series of adjustments is for the convenience of managing the whole country.

In this way, the distance between all places is similar to the capital city.

At the same time, it can also guard against enemies going north.

The matter of moving the capital was very troublesome. The Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of Industry, under Li Ke's order, began to build the imperial palace in the capital of Youzhou.

Today, the Tang Kingdom no longer exists, and Khitan, Goguryeo, Silla, and Baekje all cease to exist.

These places were all unified and became the Dragon Kingdom.

Li Ke set up Enke, and specially held another imperial examination in the spring to select talents.

After he perfected the imperial examination, he obviously gave hope to scholars.

Scholars passed the imperial examinations, and the Juren and Jinshi who came out were qualified to enter the court as officials.

To a large extent, this made up for the fact that the group of officials who were loyal to Li Er did not want to be loyal to Li Ke.

These officials put on airs and were unwilling to do things for Li Ke.

I thought that Li Ke would also invite them to work for the court like Li Er did in the past as a show.

It's a pity that they underestimated Li Ke, and Li Ke didn't bother with these pedantic former courtiers at all.

Therefore, the imperial examination was used directly to recruit talented people from all over the world to fill the vacancy.

Unlike Li Ershi, who was as harsh as Li Ershi, Li Ke was lenient about the imperial examinations, so many talented people got fame.

Moreover, many favorable policies have been opened to those with fame.

In this way, scholars all over the world, even if they look down on literati, are very grateful to Li Ke.

Therefore, there are many people who are willing to do things for Li Ke!
