Chapter 1012 Yun Li’s Killing Intention

After retiring from court, Yun Li did not go to see Emperor Wen immediately, but instead summoned Xu Shifu, Gu Xiu and several other close confidants to his Prince's Mansion to discuss matters.

The sudden attack by the second brother and the other two today really caught him off guard.

The key point is that everything the second brother and the others say makes sense.

He wanted to find a reason to make the three of them shut up, but he couldn't find a suitable reason.

These three bastards are definitely aiming for chaos in the world.

By then, they will also rise up in rebellion!

This is their only chance to fight for the throne!

These three bastards deserve to be killed!

They are just like Lao Liu, none of them are good people!

If his father was not still alive, he would really like to execute all three of these bastards in one fell swoop!

I have almost eliminated all of their followers, so how dare they go against me?

Do they think they are the sixth in command of a large army?

Find an opportunity to teach these three bastards a lesson!

However, these three bastards have learned their lesson now.

Generally speaking, these three bastards never say a word in the court, and they also keep aloof attitude towards the affairs of the court and Lao Liu, as if it is none of their business.

This meant that he had no chance to deal with these three bastards in a fair and open manner.

"Tell me, how should we deal with the attacks from the second brother and his gang?"

Yun Li sat there with a frown on his face, and his already depressed mood became even more depressed.

"No matter what they say, it's useless. The key is to see His Majesty's attitude!"

Xu Shifu pondered, "Your Highness should think about how to convince His Majesty!"

"I have already tested my father's attitude yesterday." Yun Li looked worried. "Although my father did not express his opinion directly, from what he said, it seems that he agrees with the full implementation of the land tax distribution system."

"Is this what Your Majesty meant?"

Xu Shifu's brows knitted together instantly, "If this is true, it will be troublesome!"

Although Emperor Wen had not attended court for many days, his prestige in the court remained.

Once Emperor Wen agreed to fully implement the land-based tax system, they would become extremely passive.

Gu Xiu thought for a moment and suggested: "Your Highness can explain the interests involved in this matter to His Majesty in detail. His Majesty should be able to understand Your Highness's difficulties!"

"Do you think His Majesty can't see the interests involved here?"

Xu Shifu snorted: "Your Majesty understands better than you and me!"

If Emperor Wen can't even see the interests involved here, he has been emperor for so many years in vain!

Now we need to find out what Emperor Wen is thinking!

Does he care more about tax revenue and public opinion, or does he care more about the overall situation?

From a big picture perspective, now is definitely not the best time to fully implement the land-based tax system.

If we want to implement it in full, we have to wait until the court is free from internal and external troubles.

At that time, the court could handle any situation!

But now, if a major chaos breaks out, the court may not be able to cope with the complex situation.

In the end, the court’s tax revenue will not only not increase, but may even decrease sharply!

As the Minister of Revenue, Xu Shifu saw this matter very clearly.

Listening to Xu Shifu's analysis, Yun Li became even more worried.

Gu Xiu pondered for a moment and said, "If you want to convince His Majesty, you have to think about how to deal with those poor people. As long as you can suppress the poor people's desire to move to Fuzhou, His Majesty should agree!"

"I have also considered this issue!"

Yun Li's eyes flashed coldly, "The best way is to sow discord!"

"How do you sow discord?" Gu Xiu asked.

Yun Li said coldly: "Send people to create chaos among the poor people who want to move to Fuzhou, let them kill each other, and when the time is right, the court will send troops to kill the rioters!"

This is how Yun Zheng deals with the Su family.

It's just a change of pattern and object.

"Your Highness, this plan is quite brilliant!"

Xu Shifu nodded in agreement, "However, Your Highness cannot possibly convince His Majesty with this!"

If Yun Li dared to tell Emperor Wen about this method, he would definitely be slapped in the face.

They can do this in private.

But the rhetoric to convince Emperor Wen must be different.

"I know."

Yun Li sighed, "I had originally planned to use the ministers to veto the implementation of the new tax system in the court today, but I didn't expect that the second brother and his men would suddenly attack..."

Speaking of this matter, Yun Li felt so angry that his teeth itched.

If the second brother and his men hadn't suddenly taken action, this matter would have definitely been rejected.

As long as the emperor sees the attitude of his ministers, he will not force the new tax system to be implemented across the board.

His wishful thinking was completely ruined by those three bastards!

"Now is not the time to talk about this."

Xu Shifu rubbed his head. "The most urgent thing is to think of a reason that can convince His Majesty and use His Majesty's hand to stop this matter! This way, it will not damage His Majesty's reputation and can also reduce trouble!"

"Makes sense!"

Yun Li nodded in agreement, "I think if I forcibly stop this, the second brother and his men will definitely spread the word that I obstructed the court from implementing the new tax system, thus ruining my reputation!"

Based on his understanding of the second brother and the other two, he could even conclude that once the time came, the three of them would definitely do so.

In that case, he would be completely standing on the opposite side of those poor people!

Just as they were racking their brains for reasons to convince Emperor Wen, the prince's attendant suddenly came quickly, whispered a few words in Yun Li's ear, and then handed him a letter.

Yun Li waved his hand gently, signaling the attendants to leave, and quickly opened the letter in his hand.

After seeing the contents of the letter, Yun Li's mind suddenly became active, and he handed the letter to Xu Shifu and others to read.

The content of the letter is simple.

Yun Zheng brought his family to Changle County, Fuzhou.

According to reliable sources, Yun Zheng and his team will probably stay in Changle County for a long time.

Yun Li was originally still thinking about how to convince Emperor Wen, but now he had completely forgotten about this matter.

"Is there any way to keep them in Changle County forever?"

There was a cold light flashing in Yun Li's eyes, revealing murderous intent.

opportunity!

This is an excellent opportunity!

It is too difficult to kill Yun Zheng in Shuobei.

But if it were in Changle County, there might be a chance!

Moreover, Yun Zheng’s whole family is in Changle County!

If they were all captured in one fell swoop, the generals in Shuobei would not even have anyone to be loyal to!

As long as the imperial court promises them benefits, it will be able to win over those generals in one fell swoop!

Xu Shifu frowned and thought, then shook his head and said, "If you want to assassinate me, it's really difficult!"

"That's right! That bastard carries thousands of guards with him wherever he goes, so assassinating him is not very realistic."

Yun Li nodded slightly, "What I'm thinking is, can we ask Zhao Ji to quietly mobilize troops and quickly besiege them in Changle County and capture them all in one fell swoop!"

They have 60,000 troops in Juzhou!

There are still 100,000 troops in the Xiongji Ridge area!

Yun Zheng only had 30,000 troops stationed in Changle County!

Changle County is not very close to Beilu Pass.

If they could besiege Yun Zheng in Changle County as quickly as possible, and then concentrate their superior forces to attack Changle County, Changle County might be destroyed before Yun Zheng's reinforcements arrive!

One hundred and sixty thousand versus thirty thousand, is there still no chance of winning?

As long as we solve this bastard Lao Liu, all other problems will not be a problem!

Xu Shifu thought about it and said worriedly: "We need to be extra cautious about this matter. It would be best to send someone to Suizhou without stopping to ask Zhao Ji's opinion!"

If it succeeds, everyone is naturally happy.

But if he fails, he will have to face Yun Zheng’s crazy revenge!
