Chapter 711: Eavesdropping

Qingtong's words made Tang Xuanzong Li Longji very embarrassed, and he said curtly: "I'm not talking nonsense, after I return to Beijing, I will build a shrine for you, let ten thousand people worship you, and let you enjoy the incense of all generations." ”

I have already experienced the benefits of faith, I like Li Longji's suggestion, for fear that Qingtong will have to talk to Tang Xuanzong Li Longji about the conditions again, I hurriedly patted his head and said, "Why don't you hurry up and thank the Emperor for the reward?"

Qingtong looked at me puzzled, not understanding why I was so anxious. He reluctantly saluted Li Longji and said politely: "Thank you------"

After everyone sat on the prisoner cart and chatted for a while, some officers and soldiers came over and struck the prisoner cart with whips and reprimanded: "Don't make a noise, otherwise you will rectify the law on the spot." ”

Li Longji's purpose was to go to Hunan to observe the embassy's mansion, but he didn't want to reveal his identity now.

He calmed down and sat quietly in the prisoner car, the expression on his face did not show any inconvenience at all, as comfortable as sitting on a dragon chair, Yang Yuhuan snuggled quietly beside him, like a docile kitten.

For the two people who sprinkled dog food all the way, we are used to seeing it, and each set up an enchantment for himself, and sat on the spot to consolidate his cultivation.

Zhou Yiqing's younger brother Zhou Yijin is not as lucky as us, his brother doesn't know what psychology, he used an ox cart to pull him alone, his limbs were tied to the ox cart, and he was bumpy all the way, and he felt uncomfortable looking at it.

It was easy to get to Changsha Mansion, and Zhou Yiqing ordered us to put all of us in prison, and the trial started that night.

Above the lobby, Zhou Yiqing was iron-faced and selfless, and after asking the ins and outs of the matter, he sentenced Na Song Zhi County to confiscate his family property, and he was sentenced to 13 years of labor in Situ Village.

Because of the injury to the officer, Zhou Yijin was punished with a cane of fifty.

For killing Song Zhixian without going through the government, Li Longji was sentenced to be immediately escorted to Beijing and convicted by the Criminal Department.

Those of us who watched the excitement didn't get a little fishy, Su Tong was very satisfied with this, patted the non-existent dust in the corner of his clothes, and said to Li Longji: "Your Majesty, you go all the way, we will wait for you in the capital, and then you will test whether the judgment of the Criminal Department is fair and selfless--------"

Li Longji knew that Su Tong was ridiculing him, he didn't care, he didn't hurry to take out a gold seal from his sleeve, and it lit up in front of Zhou Yiqing.

Seeing this, Zhou Yiqing knelt down in a panic and shouted, "Your Majesty!"

Li Longji nodded with satisfaction and said, "Yes, it's a bit of eyesight." ”

This matter is over, and it turns out to be a lie that the prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people.

Under Zhou Yiqing's warm hospitality, we spent a few days in Changsha Mansion, and at Li Longji's insistence, we embarked on the road back to Beijing.

Li Longji returned to Beijing and discussed with us: "Immortals, can we hurry back?"

This was a bit subtle, but I understood what he meant, nodded and said, "Okay, let me know the methods of the immortals." With that, I led them to stretch their legs and shrink into inches, and in a few minutes we were in front of the palace.

Looking at the tall city gate, Li Longji was full of emotion.

"Finally back------"

Zhou Yijin, who came with him, asked cautiously beside him: "Your Majesty, do you need me to knock on the door?"

Li Longji's face was straight, he shook his head and said, "No, please take us through the wall to go in, I want to see what is going on in the palace at this time." ”

I have to say that Li Longji is thoughtful. After entering the palace, it was not as calm as it seemed on the surface. In the imperial study, the crown prince Li Xiang was being pressed step by step by Prime Minister Li Linfu.

"Prince, what do you think of the matter of prohibiting officials from occupying people's land that Lord Shen played yesterday?"

"I agree with this, but I don't know the Prime Minister's intentions, and I don't dare to make an order. Prince Li Xiang replied

"It's better not to give an order in this matter. Li Linfu said.

"Why? My father has repeatedly ordered that officials are not allowed to occupy the people's land, so why is it wrong for me to follow my father's will?" Prince Li Xiang asked very puzzled.

Li Linfu took a step forward and said: "When the water is clear, there are no fish, how can the ban on occupying people's land be one-size-fits-all, besides, the current situation is not as serious as Lord Shen said, the prince should not listen to Lord Shen's alarmist words, he is deliberately messing with the government, bullying you ignorance, it is really an unforgivable crime." ”

The crown prince Li Xiang was suspicious, glanced at the Niu cyclamen next to him, and asked, "Lord Niu, what do you think should be done?"

Niu Xianke is more upright, but he is not stupid and does not want to offend Li Linfu in person. He saluted respectfully and said, "This matter needs to be investigated carefully." ”

Although this said enough to give Li Linfu face, it still made him feel uncomfortable, he raised his chin slightly, and said loudly to the crown prince Li Xiang: "There is nothing to check about some trivial matters, just send the song back directly." ”

These words were said crisply, full of neutrality, and had the bearing to scold Fang Xuan, which made the crown prince Li Xiang's face change, and Li Longji outside the imperial study was shocked, and secretly thought: "Li Linfu is very polite and polite to his superiors and subordinates, he has never seen such presumptuous today, what reason does he have for this?"

Li Longji was displeased, and when he raised his legs, he wanted to go to the imperial study, but I pulled him down.

"Let's take a look at it again. I said.

Li Longji listened to persuasion, he pressed the unhappiness in his heart, stabilized his mind, and listened quietly.

I heard the crown prince Li Xiang say slowly: "All the people are the courtiers of the emperor, and the emperor often teaches us to be diligent in government and love the people, and enclosing the people's land will make them leave their homes and be displaced, which is very detrimental to the stability of the country." ”

The crown prince Li Xiang said it reasonably, eloquently, quite reasonable, and heard Tang Xuanzong Li Longji nodding secretly. Hearing this, Li Linfu was shocked in his heart, and said secretly: "I still underestimate this straw bale prince, it seems that some things can't be done too obviously." ”

He pondered his words and said, "The stability of the people is important, but the emotions of the officials in the imperial city still need to be taken care of, and they cannot be killed with a rod. ”

This is true, Tang Xuanzong Li Longji couldn't find any fault, and the crown prince Li Xiang couldn't see what Li Linfu's intentions were, he glanced at Niu Xianke and didn't answer again.

The art of being an official lies in balancing the mean, and although the ox cyclamen is honest and selfless, he is also good at balancing the mean.

He thought quietly for a moment and then said, "What Master Li said is very reasonable, but if the behavior of the hundred officials is not restricted, the enclosure activities will only become more and more intense, and they cannot be promoted. ”

Hearing this, Tang Xuanzong Li Longji couldn't help it, he pushed the door hard, revealed his true body and said: "Niu Xianke is right, I think so. ”

Although Li Linfu had a disobedient heart, his preparations were not mature at this time, and he still did not dare to have the slightest disrespect for Tang Xuanzong Li Longji. Seeing Li Longji, his heart was shocked, he took two steps and knelt down, and said with a sincere and frightened look: "Welcome to the Holy ------."
