Chapter 429: Chen Deng Jian has seen His Majesty
Went to Dali Temple......
Li Shimin's face at this time can be described as iron-blue.
He looked directly at Chen Zhengtai.
If it is said that before, he went to the Cui family to make trouble, no matter how the Cui family is a family, after all, it still belongs to the category of the people.
But now that I'm going to Dali Temple, what are I going to do?
What's more, it's still like an open fire.
Li Shimin took a deep breath before saying, "Where is Sun Fujia of Dali Temple?" ”
Zhang Qian on the side hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Sun Fujia is outside the palace, waiting for Your Majesty to see you." ”
Li Shimin said with a straight face: "I never thought that the situation would be so serious. I wanted to cover the lid, I didn't want to make a big deal out of it, after all...... The palms and backs of my hands are my flesh. But now it's no longer me. Call all the ministers you want to see here, and I will see them. ”
Li Shimin immediately said: "Zhang Qian." ”
"The slave is here."
Li Shimin said: "You go in person, take Yu Linwei there, I will say it again, call Deng Jian!" ”
Zhang Qian knew that this time he had completely touched the scales.
Things have reached this point, and there is no way to be with the mud.
He has been by His Majesty's side for a long time, and he knows His Majesty to some extent, and he can feel that His Majesty has a preference for Deng Jian, perhaps because of his love for the house and Wu.
But Deng Jian made the situation to this point, and he entered Cui's house again, and ran to Dali Temple, this matter will inevitably shake the world, at this moment...... The lid can't be covered.
His Majesty wants to protect Deng Jian, but it is not easy!
That Deng Jian...... Zhang Qian shook his head in his heart.
In fact, Zhang Qian has a good impression of Deng Jian, and he doesn't like those families who are above the top, Deng Jian, a child of a farmer, can actually rely on the imperial examination to kill and become a leader, so as to enter the court as an official, this alone is enough to make Zhang Qian envious.
I knew that there was such a way for the children of peasant families, why did we cut ourselves off to be eunuchs in the first place? Isn't it good to have a little bit of low-grade fun left on your body?
At this time, listening to Li Shimin's cold voice command, he hurriedly got the order and walked quickly.
……
Immediately afterward, the mighty ministers and relatives of the emperor came in.
There were really a lot of people who came, and they all looked indignant, obviously the anger in their hearts had reached the extreme.
The first one is Duan Lun, the commander of the horses.
Duan Lun is not only a concubine, but also made contributions when the founding of the country, so he was canonized as the Duke of Ji Guo.
And his wife, Princess Gaomi, because she is the same age as Li Shimin, although she was not born to the same mother, she also has a deep relationship with Li Shimin.
Of course, Duan Lun is not only that, his father is the secretary of the military department during the period of Emperor Yang of Sui, and his status is extremely prominent, and he has a lot to do with Li Yuan, the prince of Tang at that time. A little more recently, Duan Lun's grandfather was Duan Wei, the general of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, who was also amazingly powerful.
It is precisely because of these many identities that Duan Lun has a very high status among the emperor's relatives and relatives.
Among all the horse captains, Chen Zhengtai is only a small role, while Duan Lun is the leader among the horse captains.
As soon as Duan Lun came in, he immediately said, "Your Majesty, do you want to force the ministers to death?" ”
This is a serious statement.
Li Shimin was standing, his brows furrowed slightly, his hands behind his back, and he was silent.
The rest of the ministers have arrived, and Sun Fujia, the secretary of Dali Temple, is also mixed in, and the rest of the ministers with surnames have come a lot, and even Zhang Liang and Hou Junji, the two founding heroes, are also mixed in.
Ministers, you say a word, I say a word: "Cui's ...... After loyalty, such people, Your Majesty alienates them, and the ministers have nothing to say, but they can order people to invade the door and enter the house, what does this mean? Now today, the army and the people are talking about it, and the ministers are sad that the rabbit and the fox are dead, and the minister wants to ask, is this Deng Jian's reckless move because of His Majesty's instructions? ”
"Your Majesty, I heard that many people in the Cui family have died. This Deng Jian, is he going to emulate Zhang Tang? ”
You know, this soup is not a good thing, it is a famous cool official in history. By now, it has long been notorious......
Then there was a humane: "Please give an explanation, if this continues, the ministers will not be able to live." ”
That Zhang Liang choked up and said: "Your Majesty, when the minister followed His Majesty, he was framed, put in prison, and tortured by the cool officials for seven days and seven nights, the minister ...... At that time, they wanted the minister to admit that His Majesty was also involved in the imaginary rebellion, but the minister gritted his teeth and didn't say anything about death. They pierced the vital point of the ministers with needles, and they used hot soldering irons to burn the chests of the ministers, but the ministers ...... Without saying a word, the minister knew that if the minister was a little careless and said His Majesty, they would make a big fuss about it and put His Majesty to death......... Later, the minister was fortunate enough to survive, and lived until His Majesty ascended the throne, and His Majesty naturally had a lot of preferences for the minister, and over the years, the minister was also satisfied, but ...... How did Your Majesty become like this now, why is Li Erlang, who we tried to protect at the beginning, so cold and untouched? ”
As he spoke, he couldn't stop crying, and he fell to the ground with a hissing sound that cracked his lungs.
Li Shimin listened and couldn't help but be moved.
When he was competing for the throne with Li Jiancheng, Zhang Liang suffered many days of imprisonment in order to protect him, and he was tortured almost inhuman.
Now that he is such a person, crying emotionally, where can Li Shimin still sit still?
He stepped forward, hurriedly helped Zhang Liang up, and said, "Zhang Qing, don't be like this." ”
Zhang Liang cried and said, "Your Majesty...... Is this to use Deng Jian's hand to kill the ministers? What is the Cui family's crime? ”
Li Shimin was speechless for a while.
Yes, what is the crime, you say, if you are guilty, who would dare to make trouble here now?
But there is no sin, but it is treated like this, so ...... How come the ministers have no doubts?
Zhang Liang immediately looked at Fang Xuanling, he and Fang Xuanling were close friends, so he said to Fang Xuanling: "Fang Gong, you are the prime minister, shouldn't you say a word?" Your Majesty can't answer, so you can answer, what is the Cui family's crime? ”
Fang Xuanling smiled bitterly, he couldn't pretend not to exist, so he stood up and said, "Brother Zhang Xian, don't be angry first, your body has always been bad." ”
The rest of the people saw that Fang Xuanling did not show indignation, so they were in an uproar again.
The whole side hall was chaotic, like a vegetable market.
It was difficult for Li Shimin to make up his mind at this time.
Maybe he can be ruthless in the face of his enemies, but in the face of so many royal relatives and relatives, so many people who blocked arrows for themselves and gave up their lives to send themselves to the throne of the Son of Heaven, can he be completely ruthless?
"Your Majesty......" Seeing that Li Shimin's expression changed slightly, Sun Fujia, the secretary of Dali Temple, who was good at observing words and colors, stepped forward and said: "The minister has a word." ”
After all, Sun Fujia is a Dali temple secretary and is familiar with the criminal law, so everyone is quieter at this time.
Sun Fujia said: "Deng Jian is ordered to handle the case, which is understandable, but even if he is ordered to handle the case, it must be within his own rights and responsibilities. Now in Cui's house, more than a dozen people have died, and most of these dozen people are Cui's subordinates, so according to the law, those who behead other people's servants will be apprentices for 3,000 miles. These two sins alone are already heinous, not to mention other crimes, all need to be agreed by Dali Temple, Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, but the criminal law is the foundation of the country, if everyone does not obey the criminal law, as nothing, then how can the country be stable? ”
Li Shimin obviously still didn't want to make up his mind now, so he said: "What Deng Jian is guilty of, when I summon him to the front of the palace, I will naturally find out." ”
Sun Fujia immediately said: "This is a fact, the facts cannot be quibbled, the crimes committed by Deng Jian have been seen by everyone, and there is no room for denial." Besides, Deng Jian is a disciple of the University Hall, and as far as the minister knows, Deng Jian accepted the will to investigate the case of the Dou family's confiscation, which was recommended by Chen Zhengtai. The non-person entrusted by Chen Zhengtai, the commander of the Korean Gong and the Horse Commander, is also jointly and severally responsible, and His Majesty is also requested to punish him to set an example. ”
Everyone nodded.
Such a thing as the Cui family will never be allowed to happen.
If you treat the Cui family like this today, won't you appear at their house tomorrow?
Everyone's impression of Chen Zhengtai is not good.
Of course, that's not the point, but the point is...... Sun Fujia chose very wisely and pointed the finger at Chen Zhengtai.
Chen Zhengtai and Deng Jian have a great relationship, which cannot be denied, this time it was Chen Zhengtai who recommended Deng Jian, if Deng Jian is meritorious, Chen Zhengtai also has merit, then Deng Jian is guilty, what about Chen Zhengtai?
The purpose of pointing the finger at Chen Zhengtai is not to rectify Chen Zhengtai, but to let Li Shimin choose to severely punish Deng Jian in order to protect Chen Zhengtai, only in this way can everyone breathe a sigh of relief.
Li Shimin's face really turned a little cold all of a sudden, and he said coldly: "I said that I have a decision on this matter. ”
"Then let Your Majesty decide." Sun Fujia said without hesitation.
When he said this, his eyes glanced at Chen Zhengtai, but he saw that Chen Zhengtai also looked at him with a strange look, and after looking at each other, the two immediately withdrew their gazes.
Sun Fujia was actually worried at first, His Majesty actually wanted to re-investigate this case, obviously extremely dissatisfied with Dali Temple, if Deng Jian really followed the step-by-step approach, maybe he might really find a little bit of his own negligence in a small place, and convict himself of negligence.
Of course, it is impossible to bring down his grandson Fujia with a single negligence.
But where did you think that Deng Jian was so reckless? This is his own death, since that is the case...... Then this Deng Jian is dead.
At this time, Sun Fujia was calm, he had patience and waited, and he was not impatient, because His Majesty would definitely make an ideal decision.
Li Shimin sat down, still didn't say much, but he looked calm, although he was a little anxious in his heart, but at this time, he was calmer than ever.
After waiting for half an hour, this ...... Zhang Qiancai rushed back sweating like rain.
Zhang Qian panted and said, "Your Majesty, Deng Jian...... It's ...... He knew the sin he had sinner...... Wait outside the temple. ”
All at once all the people in the temple cheered up.
Li Shimin said calmly: "Summoned." ”
Not long after, Deng Jian walked in and saluted: "Minister Deng Jian, I have seen Your Majesty." ”
There is no fear on his face, he still looks like he is angry, calm but not humble or arrogant.
Li Shimin looked at Deng Jian, feeling a little sorry in his heart, this is the champion he personally selected, where did he think of it......
Farmer's ...... Is it really that useless?
After Deng Jian saluted Li Shimin, he subconsciously found Chen Zhengtai in the crowd.
He had already gone to the letter, and he was determined to break off with Chen Zhengtaien, but at this time, he ...... Seeing that his master was unharmed, his heart was also a little relieved.
I saw Li Shimin say: "Why did the Qing family resist the order? ”
"I don't know which will is right." Deng Jian Zhengse said: "When the minister was studying, the book said that the Son of Heaven had a heavenly constitution in his mouth, and he was not allowed to change the order overnight, and the minister only knew that His Majesty asked the minister to investigate and deal with the case of the Dou family's copying, so the minister did his best and did not dare to relax. But since then, there have been decrees one after another, and the minister thought that since ancient times, the generals have been outside, and the king's orders have not been accepted. Why is that? This is because the battlefield is changing rapidly, and although His Majesty is strategizing, he is thousands of miles away, how can he make a correct judgment? The same is true for the minister's investigation and handling of this case, this case is particularly complicated, involving a wide range of people, His Majesty is in the palace, may not be able to actually grasp the latest situation, the minister is outside...... Just do your best. ”
Li Shimin: "......"
I have to say, this guy ...... It's rigid.
Not only ran to Cui's house, but also ran to Dali Temple, and now in front of me, it is still like this.
Why didn't you think he was such a person before?
Li Shimin couldn't help but be a little annoyed: "Hmph, don't quibble, my words don't work anymore?" ”
Deng Jian still said unhurriedly: "It is precisely because the minister does this and is beneficial to His Majesty, so the minister ......"
Li Shimin frowned and said, "Beneficial? Can you tell me how it is beneficial? ”
Deng Jian said with a straight face: "Your Majesty, the minister has probably investigated the case of the Dou family's confiscation here, and the minister has exposed a big case for His Majesty, so that the small people have nothing to hide, is it ...... Isn't it beneficial? ”
What the?
Got it checked?
Many people are confused.
Li Shimin was also confused.
What does this mean?
Everyone looks at me, I look at you, and more people look at Sun Fujia.
After all, Sun Fujia is the secretary of Dali Temple, and no one knows the matter of investigating the case better than him.
Sun Fujia was still calm, and said with a smile: "Deng Hanlin's words made the old man a little confused, such a big case, how can you say that it will be investigated?" What about the evidence? What about confessions? And what about witnesses? Investigating the case is not a matter of unfounded words, if not, you are just a Hanlin, and you say that whoever is a traitor is a traitor, who is a traitor? Is it said that whoever commits the crime commits the crime? ”
His tone was relaxed and calm.
Deng Jian said slowly: "The evidence has been brought, please Your Majesty...... Discerning. ”
………………
Chapter 3 Delivered, Late...... Maybe staying up late will write tomorrow's update sooner, and of course, it may be later. Everyone, let's go to bed early.
