Chapter 356: Proud Li Tai
The atmosphere at the court meeting was very strange, and the attendants of the various ministries began to report to His Majesty the Emperor on the various indicators of the empire for the previous month. Then Lord Shangshu will come out and slap Li Er's ass, saying what kind of about Emperor Ying's peace tomorrow.
All the courtiers, even the officials of the ministries who were repaying the money, were actually absent-minded. From time to time, someone glanced at Wei Zheng, and there were even a few times when the hall fell silent.
Wei Zheng was like a reef facing the sea, standing there unmoving. No matter how you look at him, this brother is like an old monk who has entered the meditation. The eldest grandson Wuji, who was standing next to him, even had some suspicions that the imperial envoy doctor was asleep.
The imperial historians of the Imperial Observatory were ready to move, but no one dared to stand up. The boss has already made it clear that if he still insists on impeaching Yun Hao for lawlessness at this time, his political future is likely to be over. If His Majesty the Emperor and Wei Zheng wear the same pants, the best outcome is to go fishing in Lingnan.
Li Tai stood under Dan Qiao, his eyes couldn't stop scanning the faces of the imperial historians of the Imperial History Terrace. When he saw a young imperial historian, he touched his nose. This is a signal to do something, this young imperial historian is named Shangguan Yi, and he is only in his twenties this year.
It was the crown prince Li Chengqian who promoted him to enter the imperial history platform. It is said that it is Chu Suiliang's way! No one can guess the twists and turns in this, but he is deeply branded with the imprint of His Royal Highness the Prince, and all the courtiers know that he is the Prince's person.
This was a dark move by Cen Wenbu, and Li Tai felt that now was the time to activate it.
Shangguan Yi's hands trembled a little, and what happened next was likely to cost him the fate of his life. But he can't help it, he is just a pawn between the powerful. Chess pieces cannot control their own fate.
Taking advantage of the fact that Xiao Yu, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, had a fart, Shangguan Yi calmed down. Standing up with both hands tightly holding the wat board, he said loudly: "The official etiquette in the history of the minister has a play!" ”
The eldest grandson Wuji, who was about to stand up, immediately withdrew his feet. glanced at Wei Zheng suspiciously, but saw that Wei Zheng suddenly opened his eyes, and then looked at Li Chengqian.
The hall was extremely quiet, and everyone immediately looked at Li Chengqian after seeing Shangguan Yi leave work. The officials of Li Chengqian's family looked at the face of His Royal Highness the Prince. As long as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince nods, they will pounce on it and bite like wild dogs.
Li Chengqian's face was wonderful, shocked, stunned, and shocked! The young Li Chengqian was completely stunned, and his head was "buzzing" and "buzzing". Is Shangguan Yi crazy? I didn't tell him to impeach Yun Hao! Could it be that it was arranged by the teacher, and after taking a look at Kong Yingda, he found that the old gentleman was also dumbfounded.
It wasn't arranged by the teacher, so what's going on?
Hou Junji was terrible in his heart, because he saw that there were several young officials of the prince's family in the Imperial History Tower, who were already eager to try. Yun Hao's position in the emperor's heart, Hou Junji knew too well. Not to mention such a broken thing that has not been verified, even if this thing is true, the emperor will definitely not do anything to Yun Hao.
Although he will temporarily reduce his official position and lower his title, Hou Junji believes that Li Er will reward Yun Hao soon.
Li Er glanced at Wei Zheng, and then said, "Shangguan Yi, there is a play." ”
"Ahem!" Shangguan Yi coughed lightly and tried to adjust his thoughts.
"The ministers and the officials of honor worship the imperial history of the Tai patrol according to the imperial history, and now Chadeng Prefecture assassinates the history of Chu Guogong Yunhao, and the grass is so disrespectful that the villagers gather to rebel. The number of dead and wounded amounted to hundreds. Please allow Your Majesty to allow Yu Shitai to capture this thief, and to uphold the law of the Tang Dynasty. Shangguan Yi didn't say those unreliable crimes, but simply took out the most important things.
Wei Zheng closed his eyes again helplessly, this is the prince who wants to attack Yun Hao, it is definitely not him Wei Zheng wants to do this. What I can do now is to pretend to be a wood carving clay sculpture without saying a word, and the most important thing is to take myself out.
"You didn't tell those idiots?" Fang Xuanling glanced at the field suspiciously, and whispered to Wei Zheng.
"Who knows! A stunned young man who wants to be an official and wants to go crazy, people are gambling with their future and even their lives. What can the old man do! Of course, Wei Zheng would not pour out all the words in his stomach. Fang Xuanling naturally didn't continue to ask, but just looked at Du Ruhui and smiled bitterly, pretending to be a sculpture like Wei Zheng.
Li Tai's heart was very happy, and the more unsightly Li Chengqian's face was in the first place, the happier Li Tai's heart became. However, as a young actor with high academic talents, Li Tai's face is full of sorrow. I don't know if this expression is for Yun Hao or for the crown prince Li Chengqian.
Li Xiaogong looked at the field in astonishment, and Wei Chigong clenched his fists. Cheng Biting Jin's eyes widened, and Qin Qiong's face sank like water. Hou Junji looked around with a pair of thief eyes, and his heart became more and more cold. This is over, the prince has offended almost all the generals.
Li Shentong squinted his eyes and glanced at Shangguan Yi with contempt, as if he was looking at a bedbug. When his eyes swept to Li Chengqian, Li Chengqian couldn't help but shudder.
"Your Majesty! The minister has this music! Kong Yingda suddenly stood up and bowed to Li Er.
"You're also going to impeach Yun Hao?" Li Er looked at Kong Yingda and frowned, if Kong Yingda also wanted to impeach Yun Hao, it would mean that the crown prince and his family would attack Yun Hao in an all-round way. Li Chengqian, Li Chengqian, are you too anxious?
"Your Majesty, although the ministers have some differences with the public affairs of the Chu State. But this time it's not the impeachment of Chu Gong! Kong Yingda bowed and said.
"Oh, then you're ......!" Li Er was a little confused, which one Li Chengqian was going to sing.
"The minister has also heard about the affairs of Dengzhou. It is strange that Wu Laoshi's family died, but it is said that it was done by the Duke of Chu State, but there is no evidence and no physical evidence. It's just that with the speculation of the villagers, it seems a little inappropriate to dispose of a prince like this with empty words and white teeth. The minister thought that he should send an important minister to Shandong to investigate the matter thoroughly. When the water comes to light, it is not too late for His Majesty to judge right and wrong. ”
Kong Yingda's words were reasonable, and those officials of the prince's family were about to jump out, but they all shrank back. Li Tai looked at all this in front of him hatefully, how did this old bastard jump out at the critical moment. If he came out a little late, the officials of the prince's family would attack Yun Haoqun. At that time, it would be impossible for Li Chengqian to stop even if he wanted to. Almost, just a little bit!
Everyone in the court looked at Kong Yingda and Shangguan Yi suspiciously, both of whom were the people of the crown prince Li Chengqian. Why do one want to impeach Yun Hao, but the other wants to protect Yun Hao. His Royal Highness the Prince, which one is this going to sing?
"Cheng Qian, what do you think about the fact that you are the prince?" Li Er was also a little confused, and asked Li Chengqian's opinion suspiciously.
"Father, the minister thinks what Taifu said makes sense. The dynasty cannot be convicted of a meritorious prince out of thin air because of the speculation of the villagers. Yun Hao has followed Emperor Taizu and his father since Jinyang. For so many years, there is no merit and hard work. Moreover, he offered potatoes and corn, built railroads and ships. This is all a matter of Gonggai Sheji, and the father should give Chu Guogong justice. Li Chengqian is not stupid, how could he not understand what Kong Yingda meant by jumping out at a moment of crisis.
With his statement, the officials of the prince's family completely understood that this matter had nothing to do with His Royal Highness the Prince. It's just Shangguanyi's personal behavior, a young posterior who wants to be promoted and wants to go crazy.
The faces of the bigwigs eased a lot, and looking at Shangguan Yi was like looking at a dead man. Being targeted by these murderous demon kings, it is inevitable to be played to death, and it is a fluke to play not to die. Shangguan Yi is really in a life-and-death dilemma now, and the moment Kong Yingda stood up, he completely sold him clean.
"Father, what the eldest brother said is very reasonable. The Duke of Chu is the humerus of the country, how can he be easily punished because of the speculation of the foolish people in the countryside? In this matter, please also ask my father to think twice. Li Tai, who was standing behind Li Chengqian, also stood up and respectfully reported to Li Er.
"What you said makes sense, the merits have not yet been figured out, and it is indeed not suitable to deal with Yun Hao. After all, after so many years, I still see his credit. Royal, will not be sorry for the meritorious man. Message! With Yun Hao, the Duke of Chu returning to Beijing to report on his work, who of you would like to go to Dengzhou and find out the matter? Li Er glanced at these princes and ministers.
No one has stepped up, and this is a hot potato. Wrong! It's a hot bomb! If you don't get it right, you will end up in pieces. I didn't see Shangguan Yi in the field, and his legs trembled as if he was playing the pipa, and he couldn't stand anymore.
Li Er sighed in his heart! The leisurely and affluent life of Chang'an made the greedy nobles richer and less enterprising. When I gave an order, I am afraid that the scene of the generals rushing out of the order will never be seen again. Li Er even doubted that these meaty generals could still fight.
"Erchen Bao Ren!" When Li Er was sighing, Li Tai stood up and said.
"Who are you protecting?" Li Er asked curiously.
"Taifu Kong Yingda is selfless and selfless. has been an official for many years, and his reputation is well-known, and he will definitely not favor anyone who has wronged him, or who he has indulged. Erchen thought that he could take on this responsibility. Li Tai immediately sent Kong Yingda out, and when he saw Li Chengqian's instantly flushed face, he knew that this big brother wanted to kick himself to death.
This is a matter, if Kong Yingda really finds out what Yunhao does. Half of the veterans will stay away from the prince, if they can't find out the ...... of the last black hand! Kong Yingda will stay in Dengzhou for a while, and without him by the prince's side, the prince Li Chengqian seems to have lost an arm. If it is really a protracted investigation, it also shows Kong Yingda's incompetence. No matter what, Kong Yingda's body is settled.
Kong Yingda is one head and two big, but now this matter was provoked by the prince's family, and if he wants to put out the fire, he can only go by himself. In desperation, he took a step forward and said, "Your Majesty! The old minister is willing to go! ”
"Since there is King Wei's protection, Kong Qing is also willing to go. So let's do it! Wei Wangtai has been successful in studying and cultivating virtue in recent years, and today I look at his practice quite well. This is all Cen text's teachings and instructions! Fifty horses of silk and 100 catties of copper. Wei Wangtai, the governor of Jingzhou. Li Er looked at Li Tai and nodded and said.
"Thanks! Father! ”
"Thanks! Your Majesty Longne! ”
"Retreat!" With the singing of the Yellow Gate, Li Er left the table and went to the harem.
Li Tai was as proud as a victorious rooster, smiling and accepting the congratulations of the courtiers. took the opportunity to pull a few bigwigs to set up tonight's banquet. Those who didn't come yesterday don't care, and they all have to give themselves some face today. Even Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui, who easily did not attend other banquets, agreed to write a poem with Cen Wenwen tonight.
Today Li Tai is undoubtedly the winner, and Li Chengqian looks at his younger brother who is popular. I gritted my teeth with hatred in my heart, but I had to pretend to be an eldest brother to congratulate. The taste is like eating a fly, and it is very uncomfortable to vomit and not be able to vomit.
Shangguan Yi stood in the crowd in a daze, and wherever he went, people were automatically diverted. Avoiding him was like running away from the plague, and no one wanted to come up and talk to him. Even friends on weekdays can't avoid it at this time. Everyone was offended, and the family dog suddenly became a mourning dog. The future is gone, there is no hope, Shangguan Yi feels that the heavens and the earth are spinning, his eyes are dark, and he doesn't know anything.
"Smack!" Li Chengqian, who returned to the Prince's East Palace, just picked up the teacup, thinking about what he was doing in the main hall today, and immediately slammed the teacup on the ground in anger. Fragments of fine porcelain tea bowls were scattered and splashed, and Kong Yingda, who was in the door and outside the door, hurriedly covered his face with the sleeves of his robe.
"The prince is angry, how can you expose your heart if you are the prince. Isn't it just a reckless Shangguan Yi, without us doing anything, those veterans can tear him to pieces. Kong Yingda walked to Li Chengqian's head and sat down. Hou Junji, Du Zhenglun, Yu Zhining, Du He and others behind him came in turn.
"Not to mention tearing to shreds, it's too late to turn to ashes. King Wei has a big banquet tonight, look at the lineup, it's enough to have a court meeting. His Majesty's commendation made King Wei's connections rise sharply. Even the father agreed to Cen Wenwen to go to the banquet. After Du He sat down, he snorted angrily. As if what he said was not his own Lao Tzu.
"Don't say such things, Your Majesty praises King Wei today, and Du Xiang congratulates him is also the way of a minister. They are all people who have been in the court for many years, and their experiences are beyond your imagination. Don't think that King Wei's drink can win their hearts. Kong Yingda looked at Du He helplessly, how could this kid have a little bit of heart and eyes.
There is a person like Du Ruhui in the family, who is destined to occupy three generations. The future of the Du family,...... Hey! Hey!
"Teacher, are you really going to Dengzhou?"
"Your Majesty has decreed that it will not be possible not to go. However, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can rest assured that the old man has already made a plan. Kong Yingda said firmly.
"Taifu, the plan will be released!"
"Mountain people have their own clever plans, which is insignificant!"
