Chapter 227: Bullying men and women
Chen Zhengtai didn't believe that the two big living people were just gone.
And even if it's gone, it's bound to be impossible to find someone!
So he immediately ordered someone to continue the search.
It's just that even if you are anxious, this kind of search can't be carried out in a big way.
If there is any rumor, let people know...... He's really going to suffer.
The most terrible thing is that tomorrow is the court meeting, and at this time, if the prince does not appear again, I am afraid that it will be bad.
The next day, there was still no news of Li Chengqian......
Chen Zhengtai got up early in the morning, with thoughts, but he could only wear a good court dress and enter the palace sullenly.
In the morning, it was the Great Pilgrimage, and only in the afternoon did the rest of the people disperse, at this time...... It's Xiao Chao.
The scale of the small dynasty is also not small, there are hundreds of people.
Almost all of them were important ministers during Li Shimin's reign.
Li Shimin sat down, and the rest of the officials sat down one after another, and everyone gathered together.
Immediately, the Ministry of Rites got up and presented Li Shimin with a letter of state about Tuyuhun.
Li Shimin's mood today seems to be quite good, he took the national letter and looked at it, and said: "This Tuyuhun is quite respectful to my Datang, they are in trouble now, I hope Datang can give some support, if it can help some swords, or arrows, it will be great......"
Li Shimin said as his eyes fell on Chen Zhengtai.
In fact, during today's court meeting, Li Shimin saw that the prince's position was vacant, Chen Zhengtai was the young Zhan Shifu of Zhan Shifu, and the prince was missing, of course he had to find Chen Zhengtai.
It's just that in front of so many people, Li Shimin didn't ask, although the officials were also suspicious, he seemed to be nothing.
Li Shimin immediately said: "There is a bit of controversy between the DPRK and China over Tuyuhun, and this matter is also difficult for me to decide. Dou Luqing, you are the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and I think you have been in contact with the envoys of Tuyuhun, what do you think? ”
Dou Lukuan stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, Tuyuhun is like a parent in my Datang, and the envoys who came to Chang'an are respectful to my Datang, and they have repeatedly cried and complained about the encroachment of the Tiele Department on them, hoping that Datang can uphold justice." ”
This attitude is self-explanatory.
Seeing this opportunity, the eldest grandson Wuji hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, once the Tuyuhun army is defeated, the Tiele Department will definitely dominate the entire desert...... Tuyuhun was absolutely unable to resist the Tiele Division. ”
Li Shimin nodded: "In a few days, call the envoy to me, and I will ask again." ”
Seeing Li Shimin hesitating, the eldest grandson Wuji struck while the iron was hot: "We can't delay any longer, now some people in the court are deliberately obstructing it, Your Majesty...... Once the Tiele Department annexed Tuyuhun, I ...... It is bound to fall into passivity, and now my Tang Dynasty is in ruins, it is the time to rest with the people, and once the Tiele Department rises in the desert, at that time, the Tang army will have to attack, and I don't know how much manpower and material resources will be spent. ”
The eldest grandson Wuji repeatedly persuaded him.
Li Shimin was unmoved, he still wanted to see it again.
He behaved cautiously about this matter!
But at this time, one of the ministers stood up and said: "The minister has some words, I don't know whether to say them or not." ”
Everyone looked towards this person, but it was Liu Feng, the imperial historian.
Liu Feng is a person...... It is said that he was born in poverty before, and it was because of the recommendation of the eldest grandson's family that he got to where he is today.
Thus...... Baiguan knew that Liu Feng stood up at this time, and he must have something to do with the eldest grandson's family.
The eldest grandson Wuji looked as if he had nothing to do with him, just glanced at Chen Zhengtai lightly, and then withdrew his gaze.
Li Shimin glanced at Liu Feng: "What do you want to say?" ”
Liu Feng said, "Your Majesty...... The minister was aware of it...... There is a group of unknown businessmen who have ordered a lot of iron tools from Erpigou, thinking of the war between the Tiele Department and Tuyuhun now, and the minister has the courage to predict that this will have a great relationship with the Tiele Ministry......"
Li Shimin listened, frowned, and then looked at Chen Zhengtai and said, "Really?" Chen Zhengtai, can there be such a thing? ”
Chen Zhengtai has been thinking about the prince in his heart, and he now regrets that he was too relieved to the prince at the beginning, but he still listened to the words of the court, although Liu Feng's words made him feel a little sudden, but he still said calmly: "Your Majesty, since it is to open the door to do business, someone comes to buy, and the steel workshop will sell it, as for who comes, if you want to carefully investigate the identity of the other party, there is no way to do this transaction." ”
In this way, what is the difference between Chen Zhanshi and his rival? Is it for the sake of business, can there be no right and wrong? Liu Feng was furious, and said righteously: "What evil things did the Chen family do in Chang'an, the old man has heard a lot, and I am the imperial history...... Today...... Since it should be a real performance, Your Majesty, the minister has listed the thirteen major sins of Mengjin Chen, and I implore Your Majesty to look at it. ”
Liu Feng was obviously prepared, and after he said that, he immediately took a note and presented it to Li Shimin.
Li Shimin frowned, did the Chen family commit thirteen crimes all of a sudden?
He opened the recital, and quickly read what was written above, and there were indeed many appalling things in it.
This is the one who makes the headlines, that is, he deceives the king, and in order to obtain huge profits, he blindly favors and connives, which can be said to be an endless disaster.
Li Shimin's face was a little unsightly.
And this Liu Feng's voice fell, and among the hundreds of officials, someone got up and said: "Your Majesty, the minister also thinks that Chen Zhan's affairs are really inappropriate because of private abolition, how can national affairs be abolished at will because of Chen's business?" If everyone is like this, the people of Datang will suffer in the end. ”
"Your Majesty...... Tiele Department of the army of tens of thousands, now in the desert, can balance the Tiele Department, only Tuyuhun, the Turks are still fighting each other, the ministers heard that there are a large number of Turks defected to Tiele, in the long run, my Tang finally relieved the Turks of this confidant, and now, but need to face a more powerful Tiele, at this time if you do not rescue Tuyuhun, the Tang Dynasty will never have peace. ”
The eldest grandson Wuji was still sitting idle, as if all this had nothing to do with him.
But one by one, the ministers stood up, including the imperial history and the Lang officials of the Ministry of Rites, and there were more and more such people, and in an instant, they occupied thirty percent of the hundred officials.
At this time, there was a continuation of humanity: "Your Majesty, this matter is not trivial, I implore Your Majesty to think twice, Chen Zhengtai has lost his conscience for money, His Majesty loves him so much, he actually ignores my Tang Sheji, such a person...... If you don't get rid of it for a day, you are only afraid that the DPRK and China will be uneasy. ”
Li Shimin looked at the people one by one, he didn't expect that Chen Zhengtai had caused such a big public outrage.
But......
Fang Xuanling and the others were still sitting firmly, including Du Ruhui, but they didn't say anything, judging from Fang Xuanling's expression, this matter should have nothing to do with him.
Li Shimin couldn't help but stand up: "This is just an unwarranted attack, and there is no real evidence, I asked Chen Zhengtai, Chen Zhengtai put forward his own opinion, what is wrong?" What's wrong with Zhu Qing today? ”
That imperial history Liu Feng immediately said righteously: "Your Majesty, the ministers have been suffering Chen Zhengtai for a long time......
Speaking of this, Liu Feng choked up: "How can the minister not know His Majesty's love for him, but Your Majesty...... How did Chen Zhengtai repay His Majesty...... For his own personal gain, he actually secretly became a thief and ignored the law of the country, which is really hateful, this Chen family is bullying men and women in Chang'an City, whose power is it? ”
Hear this...... Chen Zhengtai was already trembling with anger.
This time there was a lot of trouble, Chen Zhengtai didn't expect his popularity to be so bad, and no one spoke for him.
And those who stand up for their impeachment...... I can't count them all!
Oops, it's so angry!
Chen Zhengtai finally couldn't help but stand up and said, "What are these words?" Liu Feng, you thief, how can I connive at the people in my family to bully men and women? Our Chen family, but anyone who is related to me, eight or nine times out of ten have been sent to Juxian County to dig coal and copper, how did it get to your mouth, the children of the Chen family are all idle people? ”
Liu Feng was expressionless, and immediately said: "Then it is even more terrifying, these are all your Chen Zhengtai's relatives, you Chen Zhengtai treat your relatives so ruthlessly, let alone other people?" ”
Chen Zhengtai: "......"
Chen Zhengtai suddenly discovered that this Liu Feng is a professional troll, no matter what you say, he can find a place to spray, and he will always be so high-sounding and righteous.
It was the eldest grandson Wuji, who looked lively, he sat upright, didn't say a word, just looked at Chen Zhengtai with a smile.
The eldest grandson is a relative of the emperor and a great contributor to the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, not to mention ...... The eldest grandson Wuji is still a secretary of the ministry.
In his hands, I don't know how many officials have been selected from him, on the surface, although he is not the prime minister, his status is under Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui, but he is afraid that many times...... Even Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui had to respect him for three points.
At this time, many people flocked out, obviously targeting Chen Zhengtai.
This is a weakness of Li Shimin, Li Shimin wants to be a Ming Jun, and Ming Jun's standard is to pay more attention to the influence of the officials, and now all of a sudden, dozens of people in the DPRK and China suddenly impeached Chen Zhengtai together, if Li Shimin protects it with all his might, this matter will spread to the foreign courts, I am afraid that people will talk about it.
Li Shimin had to pay attention to this effect.
This Chen Zhengtai, other things, the eldest grandson Wuji is tolerable, even if he supports Tiele and breaks the agreement between the eldest grandson Wuji and Tuyuhun, it is nothing.
The eldest grandson Wuji will not worry about Chen Zhengtai in this regard, but Chen Zhengtai actually wants to destroy the marriage of the eldest grandson Chong and Princess Changle, which is to offend the eldest grandson Wuji.
Today, if Chen Zhengtai is knocked unconscious, how will the eldest grandson's family gain a foothold in Chang'an in the future?
