Chapter 274: Confrontation on the Jinluan Palace
Pei Lin didn't think that Li Tai actually brought those people who he thought had arrived in Tubo to the Jinluan Palace.
However, Pei Lin is not the kind of person who does not have enough psychological quality. Although he is now at an absolute disadvantage, Pei Lin still has no change in color.
"I don't know what you mean by this, King Wei? The minister complained to the emperor that you had lost the imperial gift. And what does it have to do with these people. You should hurry up and take out the Imperial Gift Shang Fang Gong to prove your innocence. Pei Lin said with a straight face.
"Don't you know these people, and you can't ask this king to introduce you one by one." Pei Lian, who Li Tai looked at directly, said.
"I don't know them, and I don't want to know them. Therefore, the king of Wei did not need to introduce them to his own officials. Let's hurry up and take out the Imperial Gift. Pei Lin said.
The reason why Pei Lin dared to be so tough was that now the imperial gift was in his hands. So he thinks that Li Tai can't come up with another imperial gift.
The second is, although these people are sent out on their own. But I'm afraid they won't be able to find any evidence to prove that they have anything to do with them.
That's why Pei Lin is so unscrupulous, because as long as he denies it. And if Li Tai can't come up with evidence, the emperor will definitely lean towards his side.
"It seems that you really don't shed tears when you don't see the coffin, in that case, this king will let you die clearly. The one you have in your hand is not the real thing. Because it's really still in the hands of this king," Li Tai finished speaking, and then took a wooden box from Luo Song's hand. When the wooden box was opened, it was the Imperial Gift Sho Fang Gong that was placed inside.
"I don't understand what King Wei said, how can there be a royal gift in the hands of this palace. However, whether this imperial gift in the hands of King Wei is true or not is really a little doubtful. Pei Lin said to Li Tai.
"Father, since Prime Minister Pei thinks that his son is in the hands of his son, this Shang Fang Gong is forged. Then ask the father to send someone to verify it, so that no one will suspect the son. Li Tai said to Li Shimin.
These imperial gifts are all caused by the imperial craftsmen in the palace, and ordinary folk craftsmen cannot make them at all. Therefore, the authenticity of this Shang Fang Gong only needs to be known by the palace craftsman at a glance.
"The imperial craftsman in the palace verified on the spot whether the Shang Fanggong in the hands of King Wei was real." Li Shimin said.
After a while, the imperial craftsman in the palace did not come, took the Shang Fang Gong in Li Tai's hand, and after a careful inspection, he said: "Back to the emperor, the Shang Fang Gong in the hands of King Wei is real. And it's made by the villain. ”
Hearing the words of the imperial craftsman in the palace, Li Shimin said to Pei Lin with a gloomy face: "Pei Lian, do you have anything else to say now?" It seems that you cannot escape this sin of slander. ”
"Your Majesty, it's the ministers who listen to and believe. Listening to the villain's words for a while, he will play King Wei's book to the emperor above the court. Pei Lin hurriedly knelt on the ground and said to Li Shimin.
Pei Lin already knew in his heart that it seemed that he must have fallen for Li Tai's conspiracy. But now it is useless to regret it. The only thing you can do is to do everything you can to protect yourself.
The only way to protect himself is not to let Li Tai fall on himself for stealing Shang Fanggong. Otherwise, you may really be able to leave here again.
"Prime Minister, now is not the time for your father to pursue your slander. If it were only because of one slander, how could this king send troops to besiege your house? ”
"Not only that, but the courtyard on the outskirts of the city is now under the control of this king. This king will give you another chance, now as long as you tell all the truth. This king promises to let your father spare your life. Li Tai said to Pei Lian.
"Lord Wei, don't spew blood, although I do have the crime of slander. But he was also deceived by the villain, but what King Wei did seemed to be a little excessive. Pei said without admitting it.
"A few of you tell the emperor why you went to the king's mansion to steal Shang Fanggong." Li Tai said to the Assassins.
"Your Majesty, the villains are the prime minister, Pei Lone, and the doorman. I have been living in this courtyard outside Chang'an City......" Then the assassins told the story of the incident.
"It's nonsense, when has this official seen you? Why do you want to unite with the King of Wei to frame your own officials? Pei Lin angrily pointed at the assassins and said.
"Prime Minister, if you weren't ruthless, you would kill our family first, and then you would want to kill us. Shall we testify against you in the palace of Jinluan? One of the Assassins said to Pei Lian.
"Your Majesty, the minister doesn't know these people at all. It must have been the King of Wei who came to frame the ministers in order to vent his anger. It seems that the reputation of King Wei is indeed not false. Pei Lin said pitifully and sadly to Li Shimin.
"Since you are killing yourself, then don't blame this king for being ruthless. Father, please ask Rong Erchen to bring Pei Bin, Pei Bin's housekeeper. Li Tai said to Li Shimin.
"Why do you need to do this matter yourself, just order someone to pass him on." Li Shimin said to Li Tai.
"Father, you don't know, this Pei Bin is a sinister and cunning person. If others pass on his words, it is estimated that he will definitely be given an opportunity. Only if Erchen goes in person will he avoid what tricks he is playing. Li Tai said to Li Shi.
"In that case, then you go and come back quickly. I and the Manchu Dynasty are waiting for you here. Today, we must get to the bottom of this matter. Li Shimin said to Li Tai.
"Please wait a while, and this king will go back as soon as he goes." After Li Tai finished speaking, he turned around and left with Luo Huan.
After the two of them left the Taiji Palace, they went all the way to Pei Lian's Prime Minister's Mansion. Now the entire Prime Minister's Mansion has been surrounded by water, so the housekeeper Pei Bin is naturally in the mansion.
Li Tai ordered someone to bring Pei Bin to his side, and asked Pei Bin: "This king will give you a chance to explain to this king how Pei Lin ordered someone to steal this king's Shang Fanggong." Otherwise, this king will let you live, and you can't die. ”
"What His Royal Highness King Wei means when he says, the villain really doesn't understand." Pei Bin said to Li Tai with a smile on his face.
"It seems that you are indeed loyal to your master, and in that case, I will blame the king for being ruthless." After Li Tai finished speaking, he ordered Luo Huan to bring a cup of tea.
Li Tai poured the tea into his palm, and soon condensed a piece of ice flakes as thin as a wing. Then with skillful techniques, this piece of ice was punched into Pei Bin's eyebrows.
At first, Pei Bin didn't know what it was, but in a moment, he realized the horror of the life and death talisman.
Watching Pei Bin rolling and scratching on the ground, Li Tai took out an antidote from his arms. Break a third and let Luo Huan feed it to Pei Bin.
After taking the antidote, Pei Bin instantly relieved the pain. The eyes that looked at Li Tai were full of fear.
"This king has planted a life and death talisman on your body, if there is no such thing as this king personally intervening to lift it for you. You will suffer the pain of ten thousand ants and bones for seven days, and then you will bleed and die of internal organs. Li Tai squatted down and Pei Bin said.
I've been taking my kids back to my hometown these days, so there may be a little less update. Thank you for your understanding. However, 2 to 3 more per day will at least be guaranteed. I hope you will continue to support the Dragon Soul and the strongest emperor of the Tang Dynasty
