"I'm not real gold and silver, how can I satisfy everyone? Is that what he just said? " Wu Mei glanced at Li Zhi, who was lying on the couch. Even after she fell asleep, her eyebrows were still locked together, as if she was still suffering from vertigo. After a silent sigh, she motioned Shangguan Waner to go outside with her.

When they come to the front hall, Wu Mei slowly sits down and ponders what Shangguan Wan'er said. There is no "Chen Li Zhaode, see..."

"No, go ahead." Before Li Zhaode finished his interview, he was interrupted by Li Hong, who was sitting in his study: "how? Can we get the statistics? "

"My highness, I have counted it out according to the facts." Li Zhaode saluted again and said.

Even in the face of Li Hong, whose expression and tone are relaxed, Li Zhaode can still feel his heart beating violently. It seems that the next moment, with Li Hong's question, his heart may be directly shaken out of his chest.

"Play." Li Hong got up and went to Li Zhaode, patted him on the shoulder, motioned to sit down beside him, then took over the memorial from Li Zhaode, and did not open it for the first time.

"Yes, your majesty." Li Zhaode already felt his teeth trembling involuntarily. After all, there were too many people involved this time, and there were still officials at all levels.

Originally, he thought that Du Shenyan, the Prime Minister of Luoyang, was already one of the top officials. However, after he finished the statistics, he found that he really underestimated the determination and ability of these aristocratic families, five surnames and seven hopes, who risked their lives to directly admonish his majesty.

"My highness, 2781 people gathered to make trouble this time, of whom 127 were knights and no officials, 307 were officials and no titles, 78 were both knights and officials. The rest were the sons of aristocratic families and nobles, totaling 2269. Now they have been repatriated to their homes, and the ministers try their best to control the influence Under the circumstances, they were either strongly or mildly dissuaded Li Zhaode lowered his head and said, but with his heart beating violently, he could not help but increase his voice a lot. He was afraid that his majesty could not hear his own voice clearly.

But fortunately, when he finished these words in one breath, the whole person also suddenly relaxed, not as stiff and cold as the nervous feeling just after he came in.

"I have been from Chang'an to Luoyang. In the past two months, these noble families and five surnames and seven hopes have really got the means. They have been able to gather and lobby so many people, and there are nearly 3000 people in total. If I were in the scene of the crime today, if I were cruel, stupid and cruel, would it be better to directly detain them for rebellion and treason Is it more reasonable? " Li Hong shook his head and laughed. He thought of the forces led by the five surnames and seven hopes, and the power that could be gathered together. But what he did not think of was that the number of people who had titles, had official posts or had no official titles and titles had reached 512!

If the number of officials in Luoyang and Chang'an is two-thirds, or even three-thirds, of the officials have gone to Luoyang.

Of course, Li Hong was also very clear that the more than 500 people who could be gathered together by the five surnames and seven hopes were not all officials from Chang'an and Luoyang. Most of them were still relatively low-grade officials of other Taoism. The proportion of officials from Chang'an and Luoyang was not very large.

But even so, they have the ability to summon so many officials in the whole Tang Dynasty to come to Luoyang for direct admonition within two months. However, such ability and power are not less than those of Xu Jingye, Cao Wang and Li Ming, who rebelled in Yangzhou at that time. Moreover, in terms of influence, the influence of these literati is no more than that of Xu Jingye's rebellion It's small, even worse than it is.

These people can gather together for the common interests, and they can still risk gathering together to invite their own invitation even though they know that risking their lives to remonstrate themselves is likely to completely destroy their official career. Is it true that they are incompetent as an emperor, or are they really too eager to succeed and advance rashly?

Thinking of Li Hong here, he could not help but begin to waver in his decision-making. After all, in history, the system of nine grades, headed by five surnames and seven hopes, was banned. It did not take just a few years to completely ban it.
