Chapter 236 The right to refute the true prime minister

As the saying goes, if you walk by the river, there is nothing that is not wet. Li Yuan is too obsessed with his own schemes, since Yang Wengan's so-called rebellion, it has actually sounded the alarm for him, but Li Yuan's vigilance is not enough.

Li Yuan ignored the temptation of the crown prince to Li Shimin, and also ignored Li Shimin's ruthlessness.

is just a negative imprisonment, in fact, Li Yuan is not fishing, but unfortunately, this is a failed fishing and caught a great white shark.

"I'm not dead yet, so they can't wait to jump out to find a new master?" Li Yuan roared angrily: "They ...... They...... Is there still me as an emperor in my eyes! ”

Even Pei Lin didn't know how to persuade the angry Li Yuan.

Li Yuan launched a fierce attack, raised a teacup and smashed it to the ground, then raised the ivory hollow carved pen holder, and then another inkstone.

In just a quarter of an hour, Li Yuan had already smashed dozens of objects, and if these things were placed in the next generation, more than a billion would go out.

When Li Yuan found that there was nothing to smash in his hand, Pei Lin picked up a night pot used by Li Yuan, handed it to Li Yuan and said, "Your Majesty, drop this ......"

"Hey......" Li Yuan didn't reach out to pick up the night pot, he sighed deeply, and sighed helplessly: "This matter is a mess, I don't even know how to deal with the aftermath." ”

"Your Majesty, the matter of this prince in prison may not be directly related to King Qin." Pei Lin analyzed: "If it is really King Qin's move, why not wait for Du Fuwei to return to the cage before making a move?" In that case, wouldn't there be anyone who could stop them? ”

Li Yuan shook his head and said: "I have already asked, Du Fuwei was knocked unconscious to the ground before, they were defenseless, I just imprisoned the prince, some people can't wait for the prince's life, is there anyone in the world who takes me seriously, the emperor?" Pei San, you go to the East Palace to issue an edict and order the prince to be fully responsible for the trial of Du Fuwei's case. ”

Pei Lin got up and walked out.

Li Yuan stretched out his hand to stop Pei Lin and said, "Wait a minute, take away the position of King Sikong of Qin, and King Yuanji of Qi will worship Sikong and assist the prince in questioning the case." ”

Pei Lian's eyelids couldn't help jumping when he heard this, Li Jiancheng had just been beaten to the ground, although his life was temporarily unhindered, but he would definitely be regarded as a great shame by Li Jiancheng, once Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji were put in charge of trying this case, are you still worried that this case is not big enough?

Although Li Yuan was nominally trying Du Fuwei's case, if he was not the one who asked Li Jiancheng to pick up Li Shimin of the Criminal Department, this time would inevitably cause a bloody rain in the court.

Just as Pei Lin was about to go out, he heard the eunuch come to Li Yuan's side and say, "Your Majesty, the King of Qin asks to see you!" ”

Li Yuan didn't want to think about it: "No! ”

The little eunuch hurriedly withdrew.

With Pei Lin leaving, a man wearing a cloak and showing his face appeared behind Yu Yanzhang not long after.

Li Yuan looked at Hou Junji and said, "The prince was robbed this time, who did it in the Qin Palace!" ”

Hou Junji said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty can guarantee that this matter does not have anything to do with King Qin, and he does not know about it." ”

Li Yuan let out a heavy sigh and said, "Is there any other news?" ”

Hou Junji paused for a moment and replied, "The minister is still investigating. ”

Li Yuan waved his hand distraughtly: "Stand down!" ”

Hou Junji pursed his mouth tightly, and said cautiously: "Your Majesty, there are a group of dead soldiers in the Qin Palace, who only know the name of the hundred horses, and the ministers can't participate in it, the King of Qin only puts the eldest grandson Wuji and Ye Zhiqiu in charge, and the minister feels that he is indeed ...... The danger of the prince's prison this time has not yet been conclusive, but Chen Yingqi has both excellent military talents, and it is not appropriate to ......"

Li Yuan said impatiently: "You don't care about this matter, I will deal with it and retreat." ”

Hou Junji frowned stiffly, but he didn't dare to say anything more, and bowed down and exited the hall.

……

Outside the Taiji Palace, knowing that Li Yuan didn't even give Li Shimin a chance to explain, Li Shimin stood outside the door with a depressed face.

The eldest grandson Wuji suddenly panicked: "Your Highness, how should this be?" ”

Li Shimin turned around and boarded the carriage, and Li Shimin, who was sitting in the carriage, exhaled heavily.

The eldest grandson, Wuji, tapped the window of the car and signaled the driver to get up and drive.

Li Shimin suddenly asked, "What about the prince?" ”

The eldest grandson Wuji glanced at Li Shimin and said, "I should go back to the East Palace!" ”

Li Shimin shouted: "Drive the East Palace!" ”

The eldest grandson Wuji, who had been on guard, grabbed Li Shimin and said, "Your Highness, where are you going?" ”

Li Shimin said: "The prince's brother suffered a catastrophe, and as the second brother, he should pay a visit!" ”

The eldest grandson Wuji anxiously grabbed Li Shimin's neck and said: "Your Highness, the crown prince is in a calamity and is suspicious of stealing the axe from his neighbor, you are going to the East Palace now, in addition to taking humiliation on yourself, what good will it be?" ”

In the East Palace, Li Jiancheng's carriage slowly stopped at the door, and Li Jiancheng slowly got down from the carriage with the support of Wei Zheng.

Although Li Jiancheng's flesh and blood are blurred and he looks scary, he is actually just a skin injury, and he is not worried about his life.

However, when he entered the main gate of the East Palace, he found that the left and right guards led two middle base regiments, with a total of more than 600 soldiers, were standing behind Feng Li.

The middle base regiment is two special formations in the Tang Dynasty, and there is no such establishment in ordinary Zhichong Prefecture or ordinary border army. The so-called middle base was one of the eight captains set up by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, which was originally to master the arrest of thieves in Beijing. However, the middle base regiment under the jurisdiction of the East Palace and the Left and Right Guards seems to be the special service force of the armed police in later generations.

Always on standby, well-equipped, well-trained, ready to pull out for battle.

Now the soldiers of the two middle base regiments leading the guards on the left and right are also preparing to go out on the battlefield, with bows and crossbows wound, complete armor, and murderous spirit.

Li Jiancheng looked at Feng Li and said, "What are you going to do?" ”

"The lord is worried about the humiliation of the ministers, and the lord is humiliated by the death!" Feng Li gritted his teeth and said, "The last general is willing to seek justice for His Royal Highness the Prince!" ”

Li Jiancheng sneered, he looked at Feng Li and said, "Who are you going to ask for this justice, and how to ask for this justice?" ”

"This ......" Feng Li was speechless, although the entire Chang'an, the entire court and outside the court thought that this matter was done by Li Shimin, the king of Qin, the key is that there is no evidence, although the criminal department of the Heavenly Prison Division Prison Shi Guo (not a clerical error, it is the surname of this country) Shaogang Although there was a factual act of assassinating Li Jiancheng, but he did not leave a living mouth, seeing that he was restrained by Du Fuwei, Guo Shaogang turned his backhand, held the steel drill and stabbed it into his abdomen, and the entire steel drill came out of his body, almost stabbing Du Fuwei behind him.

Now that Guo Shaogang is dead, his clue is broken, and there is no way for a corpse to point to Li Shimin.

If Feng Li really dared to lead someone to find the bad luck of Li Shimin, the king of Qin, I am afraid that even Li Jiancheng would not be able to protect Feng Li.

Feng Li said indignantly: "Your Highness, is that it!" ”

"Forget it, how can it be forgotten!" Li Jiancheng said: "The soil still has three parts, not to mention the palace, you are all scattered!" ”

The left and right guards of the Zhongdong Palace led the soldiers of the middle base army to look at each other, inexplicably.

Li Jiancheng waved his hand irritably: "Go back to sleep!" Don't block the door! ”

Feng Li breathed a sigh of relief and led the middle base army to get out of the way.

Li Jiancheng entered the main hall of the East Palace, and the crown princess Zheng Guanyin took his wife and concubines and children to Li Jiancheng to say goodbye.

Li Chengdao looked at Li Jiancheng and said, "Daddy, I'll avenge you!" ”

Li Chengdao's mind is relatively simple, he doesn't care whether there is evidence or not, anyway, he is older than Li Chengqian, in the main hall of Taiji Palace (that is, the Royal Academy), he can find a fork in Li Chengqian, anyway, they are all vassal kings, and the guards don't dare to care.

Li Jiancheng waved his hand irritably: "What are you doing here?" Hurry back and rest. If there is anything, we will talk about it tomorrow. ”

Zheng Guanyin's eyes were slightly red, and he looked at the concubines and concubines and said, "Your Highness is fine, everyone goes back to the house to rest." ”

In the main hall of the East Palace, only Li Jiancheng and Wei Zheng remained.

Li Jiancheng had injuries to his buttocks and back, and the pain was even more unbearable at this time, Li Jiancheng said with a hideous face: "Xuancheng, this palace is wrong!" ”

Wei Zheng smiled slightly and said: "Knowing that mistakes can be corrected, good is great!" ”

Li Jiancheng watched Wei Zheng flip through the newspaper, frowned and asked, "What's on it?" ”

"Some personnel appointments and dismissals!" Wei Zheng said: "Qin Qiong of the Qin Palace, and appointed as the governor of Lingzhou, Xihe comforted the ambassador, in preparation for the Turks, Cheng Zhijie!" ”

Li Jiancheng smiled and said, "Your hand is long enough!" ”

Wei Zheng continued: "The following is even more interesting, Xue Wanche, the governor of Jingzhou, has been promoted to the governor of Bingzhou and the pacification envoy of Hedong in preparation for the Turks!" ”

Li Jiancheng muttered, "Interesting...... Interesting, exchanging Lingzhou for Hedong seems to be at a loss! ”

"Probably not!" Wei Zheng shook his head and said, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, have you forgotten that General Chen has been migrating from Lingzhou in the past two years, and now there are less than 50,000 households in Lingzhou, while there are 230,000 households in Hedong!" ”

Li Jiancheng nodded and said, "Is that all?" ”

Wei Zheng continued: "Your Majesty has agreed that General Chen will return to Chang'an, be reappointed as the Great Situ, and still serve as the protector of the Anxi Metropolitan and the Ministry of Civil Affairs. ”

"That's even more interesting!" Li Jiancheng thought to himself, since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, except for Liu Wenjing, who has been in charge of the Ministry of Civil Affairs for two years, he has been letting Xiao Shiwen manage the Ministry of Civil Affairs for the past seven years, and now that he is Chen Ying, he doesn't know if it is a blessing or a curse! ”

Li Jiancheng looked worried.

Wei Zheng sighed and said, "It seems that Your Majesty is still very suspicious of General Chen!" It seems that the general will not continue to lead the troops. ”

Li Jiancheng nodded with a gloomy face, and suddenly said: "Xuancheng, I remember that Princess Pingyang once recommended Chen Ying's disciple Xu Jingzong as an official, what is his person?" ”

Wei Zheng said: "This person is unparalleled. ”

Saying that, Wei Zheng shook his head and said: "However, this person is not virtuous, and he is good at conspiracy, not conspiracy, if you want to use him, Your Highness must be cautious."

Li Jiancheng sneered: "Whether it's a conspiracy or a conspiracy, it's better than sitting back and waiting to be killed." Xuancheng, you summoned Xu Jingzong to the East Palace, and let him be appointed, Zhongyun of Zuo Chunfang in the East Palace, and you were appointed as the son of Zuo Shu"

The East Palace is a miniature version of the imperial court, while the left and right spring squares are benchmarked against the menxia province and the Zhongshu province of the imperial court. The subordinate province is in charge of confidential affairs, discusses state affairs, and is responsible for reviewing edicts, signing seals, and has the right to refute them.

Now Li Jiancheng has given Wei Zheng the right to refute Li Jiancheng, this is the real prime minister!
