Xiao Yu said leisurely: "King Bin, don't be annoyed, I just suggested that Your Majesty should not easily express his position in Fang Jun's case, so as not to end it later, and did not say that Fang Jun must be guilty, let alone punish Fang Jun." The emperor is supreme, and he should be cautious, otherwise the export will be a golden rule, and it will be difficult to change. ”

Ma Zhou smiled angrily: "What is the difference between this and a conviction?" At present, there is a lot of public opinion in the outside world, if the imperial court does not express its position and drags it out again and again, wouldn't it make the outside world identify Fang Jun's crime? ”

Xiao Yu said: "Fang Jun has always acted unscrupulously, I'm afraid most people think that he is pampered and arrogant, and he really sits down and loses his conscience." ”

Ma Zhou was furious and said unceremoniously: "It's ridiculous! ”

The eldest grandson Wuji, who had been sitting quietly and silently, suddenly opened his mouth at this moment, smiled indifferently, looked at Ma Zhoudao: "King Ma Bin is a capable minister, but after all, he is still young, and he does not know the sinister nature of people's hearts. ”

All the ministers looked at Xiao Yu and shook their heads secretly, this is simply nonsense, but that Le Yanwei insisted on not letting go, it was indeed a headache. Now that the eldest grandson Wuji has been added, it can be seen that there must be the shadow of the Jiangnan Shi clan and the Guanlong Group behind this matter......

In fact, this matter is very simple, just punish Le Yanwei heavily, and set things right with the power of thunder.

Everything must pay attention to evidence, this is a fair and serious court, not between the nonsense market, if there is evidence, Fang Jun will be punished, and if there is no evidence, he will be punished for false accusation Le Yanwei, if the ironclad evidence of Fang Jun's crime is found in the future, it is not too late to deal with it at that time, how can it be generalized?

But the difficulty is that this is a sensitive time node......

Crusade!

In the past two years, the large-scale overall allocation of troops stationed in the territory and borders of the Tang Dynasty has been carried out, and while ensuring the stability of the western and northern frontiers, a large number of troops have been transferred to Liaodong.

If Le Yanwei is dealt with heavily at this time, it will inevitably make the Jiangnan Shi clan behind him feel empathy, and it may not be necessary to have a change in his heart, but it is completely possible to secretly do something to drag the back of the imperial court.

At this moment, coupled with the Guanlong Group, which has a strong influence in the army...... Even the emperor has to be jealous.

The emperor is the supreme in the world, holding the sun and the moon in his hands, and controlling the life and death of hundreds of millions of Li Shu, but the emperor is also a human being, and he is also affected by the power of the DPRK and China.

Even if he is as wise and martial as His Majesty Li Er, it is impossible to ignore the mutual attack and annihilation of the forces in the court, and can only balance the interests of all parties and contain each other.

The pursuit of interests is always the same, each has its own trade-offs, and so on, so the emperor who obeys the world and treats death as if he were at home can only exist in legends, which was not before, is not now, and will not be in the future......

Never.

His Majesty Li Er's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, he looked at Xiao Yu, and then at the eldest grandson Wuji, and suddenly laughed......

You all think that I can sacrifice everything and endure everything for the sake of the great situation of the Crusade, right?

Okay, then let me see what kind of background you leaders of the family lord have, and I will act arbitrarily once, see if you can really obstruct the Eastern Crusade, and see if you can really shake my country!

The ministers were suddenly taken aback when they saw the strange smile on the emperor's face.

Especially Xiao Yu and the eldest grandson Wuji, their hearts sank suddenly......

Monarchs and ministers have been for decades, how can they not know the temperament of the other party? Just seeing the emperor's expression, the two knew that this time they really angered the emperor! In the face of a desperate situation, this emperor only dared to use 3,000 Xuanjia iron horses to attack 100,000 enemy formations under the Tiger Prison Pass, dared to kill his brother and kill his brother under the Xuanwu Gate, and dared to force his father to abdicate in Daxing Palace.

There is nothing he does not dare to do, and no one can try to force him seriously!

Xiao Yu and the eldest grandson Wuji knew that if there was no Fang Xuanling's resignation, the emperor would choose to be patient for the sake of the Eastern Crusade and temporarily wronged Fang Jun. However, Fang Xuanling's letter was presented, but the tyrannical blood in the emperor's heart burned completely!

This is the blood of resistance!

The position of the emperor was obtained because of the support of the family gate valve, but because of the family gate valve, the emperor's dignity was repeatedly challenged, which was absolutely impossible for His Majesty Li Er, who was extremely confident, to endure for a long time!

Now, this tipping point has been reached!

Xiao Yu and the eldest grandson Wuji secretly screamed badly, and they did everything they could, but they didn't expect Fang Xuanling's reaction to be so fierce this time, and they even didn't hesitate to use the complete withdrawal from the court as a bargaining chip to force the emperor to give him an explanation!

The atmosphere in the hall was suddenly cold, and just when the ministers were waiting for the emperor's thunder and anger, they saw the crown prince Li Chengqian standing up from his seat, bowing to His Majesty Li Er, and said loudly: "Father, the son has something to do!" ”

The ministers were stunned.

All eyes immediately looked at the prince, surprised how the prince spoke at this time?

His Majesty Li Er's anger rose, his eyes stared at Li Chengqian like a falcon, and he said coldly: "What does the prince say?" ”

He thought that the prince wanted to speak for Fang Jun, so he was extremely dissatisfied. When it was time for you to stand up and defend Fang Jun, you didn't say a word, and let Ma Zhou be embarrassed by Xiao Yu and the eldest grandson Wuji; Now that I have planned to support Fang Jun to the end, then you, as the crown prince, should stay out of the matter and act as a peacemaker afterwards, but at this moment, you have to stand up and speak for Fang Jun when I have made up my mind, do you have any vision, and do you have any political wisdom?

The emperor's eyes burned like a sharp sword, and Li Chengqian's heart jumped with fright, and he almost retracted it...... But where is he allowed to hold back at this moment?

swallowed his saliva, mustered up his courage, and said: "Enlighten the father, the son-in-law can testify for Fang Jun, although the daughter of the merchant married into the Fang family, she was definitely not accepted as a concubine by Fang Junqiang. ”

His Majesty Li Er was stunned for a moment, and said strangely: "What did you say?" ”

Li Chengqian said respectfully: "On that day, Erchen and the third brother were invited to Fang's house for a banquet, just in time for the Fang family to do a happy event, Fang Jun accompanied Erchen and the third brother to drink, until midnight, after the banquet was dispersed, there was a curfew, so Erchen and the third brother all stayed in Fang's house. Therefore, Erchen can prove that the person who entered the cave room with the daughter of the merchant was Fang Jun's personal soldier, and the so-called Fang Jun's robbery of the people's daughter was simply false and maliciously fabricated. ”

After these words, the hall was quiet, and Xiao Yu and the eldest grandson Wuji looked embarrassed at the same time......

Everyone looked at the crown prince with a little surprise and amusement.

Since you were at Fang's house that day, you witnessed everything with your own eyes, but why didn't you speak out early to prove it, and you didn't speak until Xiao Yu and the eldest grandson Wuji stood up together to confirm that there was no way back?

In the past, the crown prince gave everyone the impression that he was honest and benevolent, and his outstanding ability was not only far inferior to His Majesty Li Er, but also the king of Wei and King Wu among his brothers. The reason why everyone is willing to support Li Chengqian as the crown prince, one is that Li Chengqian is the eldest son, is that the emperor is orthodox, and the other is Li Chengqian's temperament, who doesn't want to be an official under such a gentle, generous and friendly emperor?

However, now, everyone can't help but sigh: His Royal Highness the Prince, you have learned badly......

His Majesty Li Er stared at Li Chengqian, his eyes were blazing, he was eloquent and strategic, how could he not understand the prince's intentions?

Obviously, it is to make Xiao Yu, Eldest Sun Wuji and others have no way to retreat!

finally has a little bit of the prince's domineering, what does it look like to be dough all day long?

His Majesty Li Er was relieved in his heart, but his face was silent, he looked around and asked loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, what do you think of the prince's words?" ”

What can you think?

Could it be that who would dare to accuse the prince of lying and perjury? This is impossible, the majesty of the prince makes the prince never do that, saying that he will witness it with his own eyes, it must be true, not to mention that there is also His Royal Highness King Wu present, could it be that the two princes lied to Fang Jun?

Sun Fujia, the secretary of Dali Temple, said: "The previous difficulty was that Le Yanwei insisted on Fang Jun to cover it up afterwards, and now that the prince testifies, the truth is naturally revealed." Le Yanwei, as a supervisor of the imperial history, framed the imperial court officials, his nature is extremely bad, the impact is extremely bad, and he is guilty of one more degree, and the minister implores His Majesty to issue a decree and punish him with a canonical punishment to set an example! ”

There was an uproar in the hall.

Zhenguan Dynasty, except for the crime of rebellion, no courtier has been sentenced to death, and now it is recommended that Le Yanwei be punished so fiercely, Sun Fujia is going to stand on the side of Fang Xuanling's father and son to show his loyalty?

Xiao Yu and Eldest Sun Wuji glanced at each other, their faces so gloomy that they could drip water!

Le Yanwei must be saved......
