Chapter 199: 199 The end of Datang


    The distinctive face of Zhao Lingxin, at first nce, Cheng Li was able to urately remember. No one else can have the glory of a tyranny, forcing a minister to respect it.


    Cheng Li had a trembling fear after he met Zhao Lingxin. It should be known that Zhao Lingxin was an outstanding emperor in this millennium that was unmatched. The great Emperor in the East, if Zhao Lingxin directly stared at someone, no one was able to keep steady.


    "I, Cheng Li. Salute to the great Emperor of the Holy Great Dazhou." Cheng Li followed the strict rules; at least, he was unable to disrespect the Supreme Lord.


    "Are you the former Venerable Varnish of Da Tang?" Zhao Lingxin said.


    "Your great Majesty, that was in the past. Now I am your faithful servant. It is a righteous citizen of the empire." Cheng Li kept his attitude and did not forget to make sweet words to keep Zhao Lingxin''s impression.


    "Same as the Foreign Minister, Lieutenant Colonel Li Wei said. I hate people like you too. Your sly words, I can''t find certainty." Just this phrase of Zhao Lingxin. Cheng Li immediately realized that he was being attacked by the Emperor.


    At this time, beautiful words were no longer helpful. Only honesty is bestmunicated. Zhao Lingxin closed the door to stop Cheng Li from having a chance to cringe.


    Cheng Li knew that Zhao Lingxin, unlike Li Lianzhong, could convince the other by his words.


    "Your Majesty, you can''t do anything to me. Following the Chang''an Treaty, you are guaranteed to protect my safety." Cheng Li hurriedly referred to thew. He demanded the protection of a recently signed contract.


    "Cheng Li, you have no right to bargain with me. You try telling me a sentence that why does the empire have to keep such a sly noble like you?" Zhao Lingxin said with a grim smile that Cheng Li had already seen goosebumps all over his body.


    Cheng Li did not expect that a Noble Emperor himself would be more shameless than him. The pen ink on the treaty didn''t dry out; Zhao Lingxin thought about tearing the contract with him.


    ording to Zhao Lingxin''s voice, even if Cheng Li made excuses, Zhao Lingxin definitely wouldn''t listen. Cheng Li no longer thought of wasting time looking for excuses.


    "Your Majesty, I think you have forgotten something. I am now a citizen of the Empire with constitutional rights. The Emperor cannot send people to capture me. Second, I want a subpoena from the Judicial Office. This action waspletely in vition of imperialw." Cheng Li was like an old fox, arguing against imperialw.


    Even Zhao Lingxin was surprised at the other party who had been proficiently reciting the imperialws as if studying for a long time.


    On the TV screen, Zhao Lingxin turned to Lieutenant Colonel Li Wei to ask a question.


    "Is there aw like this too?"


    "Your Majesty, ording to our code, His actions are unconstitutional," Lieutenant Li Wei honestly replied.


    "Your Majesty, you have listened already. Now, you set me free, I guarantee that I will definitely not bring this matter to you." Cheng Li said, threatening Zhao Lingxin.


    "Cheng Li, I think you have forgotten something. ording to thews of the Empire, I, as the Emperor, can use the Bureau of Internal Investigation to carry out arrests without a subpoena." Zhao Lingxinpletely destroyed Cheng Li''s hopes.


    "Your Majesty, you are a great emperor. Why are you doing this?" Cheng Li said in principle, the Emperor had to bnce power, not worth paying pawns like him.


    "I don''t want you to be a disaster in the future. The aristocracy doesn''t need a ce to stand in the Empire." This was Zhao Lingxin''s excuse. ording to the Chang''an Treaty, the government had to allocate administrative positions to these nobles in the Chang''an area. Seung Zhao Lingxin did not want to follow the treaty.


    The previous agreement was just a front, allowing these nobles to surrender their powers. When they are fooled, it is useless to y any more drama. Zhao Lingxin didn''t expect to keep even one of them.


    They do not fight to promote their citizens to be a government official instead of using these backward nobles.


    "Your Majesty, aren''t you afraid of today''s stories that leak or something? Your reputation will bepletely shattered." Cheng Li''s words became more serious. He did not think to be considerate or have manners anymore.


    This time, Zhao Lingxin didn''t have to act in person. Lieutenant Colonel Li Wei, who was at the side, spoke instead.


    "Cheng Li, you don''t have to worry. Today''s story is definitely not going to be published. Everyone in this room belonged to the inspection bureau. They will shut your mouth very well." Lieutenant Li Wei finished speaking, signaling to take Cheng Li out. He doesn''t want to waste time with people like this again.


    The meeting room in the embassy was quiet, only Zhao Lingxin on telepresence via satellite and Lieutenant Li Wei.


    "How is the transition in the capital?" Zhao Lingxin asked for the progress.


    "Chang''an City is now in our hands. Some parts of the country are in the works," replied Lieutenant Colonel Li Wei.


    Most of the area of Datang responded to the arrival of the Imperial Army. They began to ept the fact that their country had fallen.


    The reason why everything is going smoothly is a feat of the foreign ministry. The foreign ministry infiltrated the Empire''s elite. There was a bribe to buy the nobles to ept, switch to the Empire side. The clearest example of this was Chief Minister Cheng Li, who was also bought.


    These high-ranking figures facilitated the imperial army to take over smoothly. Most of the nobles who saw the situation changed, they joined the Empire, allowing their cooperation to not resist.


    "Proceed to seize property of the entire noble family and send them to the banks that lend loans to Datang," Zhao Lingxin ordered. What he liked the most since he was an emperor was the forfeiture of property.


    This is a business that requires no investment and is hundreds of times profitable. Just send the soldiers back to confiscate the property. Moreover, the noble of Datang was extremely wealthy. It was estimated that there would be a lot of assets in the millions.


    Unfortunately, this time the money that was seized did not belong to Zhao Lingxin. But it must be taken to pay the debt of the private bank.


    If Zhao Lingxin did not pay the debt this time, there would be a financial crisis in the Empire. Zhao Lingxin had to use most of the money this time to pay off the outstanding debt.


    "I will immediately execute orders." Lieutenant Li Wei knows the importance of this very well.


    "The government is going to send people to there. During this time, I''m afraid that you will be temporarily responsible." Zhao Lingxin used his power to appoint Lieutenant Colonel Li Wei. Be the provisional governor of Datang Township until the government haspleted the transfer of territories.


    "I will do this my best," Lieutenant Li Wei has be the supreme authority. Administering the state administration in Datang Township, which now has to deal with many urgent matters.


    After finishing the story, Zhao Lingxin ended the teleconference. The army had arrested all of the high-ranking figures and began a seizure operation at Zhao Lingxin''s orders.


    The army announced that everyone in the city could live normally. But now everyone has to switch to the imperialw in ce of the old one. Most people had to make a big adjustment because the Empire''sws were so different and so strict that many people groaned.


    The confiscation continued. As soon as the spirit stone was found, everyone immediately knew how to deal with it. Delivered directly to the pce and gave it to Zhao Lingxin.


    A group of nobles was expected initially to gain a title in the Empire. They must quickly find a man in ck arrives and arrests them, leading them to a secret location without anyone knowing.


    The purge of the top ss went quietly, but some people noticed it. Because many nobles disappeared with their confiscated assets.


    Later investigations were made, it was found that most of them had disappeared. Not even going to court, as if disappearing into the air.


    The Li family had been demoted to ordinary people. All had to be transported to the Shenzhou capital as hostages.


    The imperial g of the ck eagle was embroidered throughout the entirend of Datang. This time, every square inch of Datang was controlled entirely. In Zhao Lingxin''s writing room, the map had to be revised, drawing a new boundary line.


    All over the country face this problem as well. Many textbooks have be outdated, needing to change the picture of imperial borders. Compose a new textbook to rece.


    The best chef of heaven, the chef who had the best cooking art for Emperor Datang, also disappeared.


    There is a story that this chef escaped to a vige. Established a food school where most of the people in the vige have mysterious hair loss. Without anyone able to find the answer.
