Chapter 1167: Merton is dismissed

Yu Zhining saw Mo Dun's crisp and neat admission, and couldn't help but be overjoyed in his heart and chased after him: "Please also ask Your Majesty to be aware that everything in Gaochang should have been the spoils of the Tang Dynasty, and the Mo family swallowed two secret techniques worth thousands of gold without permission, and please punish Your Majesty in accordance with military law." ”

"Fart!" Qin Qiong said angrily, "Since ancient times, the spoils of war have been cattle, sheep, gold, silver and gemstones, and I have never heard of anyone treating secret techniques as trophies, this kind of punishment has never been done since ancient times. ”

Many courtiers nodded one after another, the secret technique can be said to be a kind of knowledge, which is worth a thousand gold to the useful, and worthless to the useless, since ancient times, the spoils of war may not have included knowledge.

"But anything valuable can become a trophy, and the value of wine secrets is more than a thousand gold, or even ten thousand, and the Mo family's move is more culpable than annexing some gold and silver." Yu Zhining did not hesitate.

Many ministers echoed Yu Zhining, mainly because of the prohibition of alcohol, the value of wine secret techniques suddenly skyrocketed, and such a wealth fell into the hands of the Mo family, how could it not make people jealous.

Li Shimin couldn't help frowning, he didn't expect Mo Jiazi to let people grab the little tail again, which made him can't help but be in a dilemma.

Merton leaned forward, and said calmly: "Lord Yu's words are also wrong, it is true that he took the wine secret technique from Gaochang, but it is not a private spoil, but an exchange, and the raisins that have been popular in the Tang Dynasty in recent days are the secret techniques specially invented for Gaochang in Xia, in exchange for the wine secret technique." ”

"Swap!" Baiguan couldn't help but be stunned, it is taboo for Mo Jiazi to swallow the spoils of war privately, if he uses his ink skills to exchange Gaochang's wine secret skills, it is an equivalent exchange, and he is naturally innocent.

"It's nonsense, it's a lot of tricks, how can a little raisin compare to the secret skill of a wine worth a thousand dollars." Yu Zhining smiled angrily.

Merton shook his head and said: "Whether it is worth it or not is not what others think is worth it, but whether the exchange is worth it or not." As far as the wine secret technique is concerned, although it is famous all over the world in Gaochang, but due to the long distance, there are very few that are transported to Datang every year, although the unit price is expensive, but it can not make a few dollars, but the raisins are not, easy to store and transport, and the more valuable production method is simple, everyone can make it, backed by such a vast market in Datang, everyone can make a fortune here, you say that in the eyes of the people of Gaochang, it is the raisin secret technique or the wine secret technique is of high value. ”

Koji Zhisheng respectfully saluted to Merton and said: "The secret skill of raisins is better than the secret skill of wine, although Koji is no longer the king of Gaochang, but I want to thank Mohou for the 100,000 people of Gaochang." ”

The secret technique of wine can only enrich a small number of people, while the secret technique of raisins can enrich everyone in Gaochang. It is natural to see which is more important and which is more important.

The ministers nodded one after another, from Gao Chang's point of view, the raisin secret technique is much higher than the wine secret technique, and Gao Chang does not suffer a loss in this exchange, although Merton used the wine secret technique in Datang to earn more.

"Wine secret technology can only have the broadest market in Datang, and raisin secret technology can only play its best in Gaochang, there is no loser in this exchange, it is a win-win situation." Merton said solemnly.

"What about the secret technique of weaving, how do you explain this?" An old imperial history who is over half a hundred years old blurted out his debut.

Mo Dun stretched out his hand and said, "Mo Mou, the secret technique of weaving, didn't ask for it, but gave it to Majia Village." ”

The old Yushi suddenly became angry, what is the private embezzlement of the spoils, that is because the loot is valuable, if it is a thing that is not wanted, I am afraid it cannot be called the spoils of war, and naturally it is not possible to talk about the spoils of war embezzled, not to mention that the textile secret skills of the Tang Dynasty are not inferior to Gaochang.

Yu Zhining took a deep breath, he didn't expect Mo Jiazi to crack his attacks one after another, but in his opinion, these Mo Jiazi's moves were just in vain, and his third move, Mo Jiazi couldn't dodge it no matter what.

Yu Zhining took a deep breath and said: "As far as the old man knows, the task of the triumphant rotation of the ink sacrifice wine is to escort the Jincheng County Duke to Chang'an City, but outside the Yumen Pass, the ink sacrifice wine left the Jincheng County Duke and went to the Eight Hundred Miles of Hanhai to pursue the remnants of the Tubo Army, and after returning from the Eight Hundred Miles of Hanhai, he once again left the firearms supervisors, and used the people of Mojia Village to rush back to Chang'an City from Yumen Pass overnight, and waited for the firearms supervisor outside Chang'an City. Weichen impeached Mo Saijiu for repeatedly disregarding military law, and was immediately removed from office for investigation. ”

As soon as Yu Zhining's voice fell, the Manchu Dynasty was silent for a while.

Mo Jiazi left the Jincheng County Gong is not a matter at all, the real threat is that Mo Jiazi took the initiative to return to Chang'an City, everyone knows that Mo Jiazi left the firearms supervisor and returned alone, the main reason is that Princess Changle is in labor, but it is a fact that he will not leave the army, and it is a fact that Merton and the firearms supervisor are separated, which is irrefutable.

The eldest grandson Wuji suddenly spoke out to defend Merton: "Lord Yu's words are a bit nitpicky, according to the military order, the firearms supervisor should have returned as scheduled, but he was attacked by Tubo halfway, so he did not return within the time limit, and the return of the ink sacrifice wine is for Princess Changle, otherwise the weak Princess Changle will become ill and will definitely not be able to endure the pain of production." ”

Li Shimin nodded slowly, he knows this matter better than anyone else, compared to conformism, he is more willing to see the deviant behavior of the Mo family, although he left the soldiers, but he rushed back to the Tang Dynasty in time, so that Changle and Mo Tan turned the corner, as an emperor, Merton's move was naturally wrong, but as a father, Merton's move made him quite pleased.

"Which soldier has no wife and children, if everyone can leave the army and return, then where is the military law, how can my Tang Iron Cavalry deter the Quartet." Yu Zhining cut the railway.

The eldest grandson Wuji sighed when he heard this: "Although Changle is the niece of the old man, and the old man is quite pleased with the behavior of the ink sacrifice wine, but the military law is ruthless, and the ink sacrifice wine is indeed a violation of military law, and I hope Your Majesty will think twice." ”

"Your Majesty, the ink sacrifice wine is not a matter of war to leave the soldiers, but the army has triumphed, the soldiers have arrived at the Yumen Pass, and the safety of the firearms supervisor is safe, please Your Majesty for the sake of Mohou's deep love for Princess Changle, and take it lightly." A civil servant stepped forward.

In terms of military generals, there are also people who cross the crowd and make their debut: "Your Majesty, the ink sacrifice wine has broken Gaochang and Tubo, and the military achievements are the first in the Western Expedition. ”

Soon one official after another expressed their positions, and the strange thing is that although they all pleaded for Merton, they all confirmed Merton's crimes.

Seeing this, Li Shimin couldn't help frowning, looked at Merton on the side and said, "Merton, do you have any justification." ”

The first two accusations were perfectly avoided by Merton, and in Li Shimin's opinion, the third accusation Merton must be able to deal with the past with clever tongues, and he will also expose the matter with the water.

However, what he didn't expect was that Merton didn't have the slightest excuse, but nodded directly: "Weichen has nothing to say." ”

Suddenly, all the ministers looked at Merton with complicated eyes, and everyone naturally knew that Li Shimin could not blame Merton for this incident, but Merton did not hesitate to shoulder all the blame.

"Please also ask Your Majesty to act impartially!" Yu Zhining took the opportunity to admonish.

The other ministers were silent, but it also represented an attitude, after all, Merton's mistake this time was irrefutable.

"Okay, the firearms supervisor of the sacrificial wine Morton for his own selfishness, the whole army was thrown outside the Yumen Pass thousands of miles away, and returned to Beijing alone, for the dereliction of duty, Merton is now specially exempted from the post of the priest of the country, and his merits and demerits will be made after the end of the Western Expedition." Li Shimin waved his hand.

"Your Majesty is wise!" Yu Zhining bowed to the tunnel, and couldn't help snorting coldly in his heart, Mo Jiazi, you think that the firearms supervisor is your bag, but you don't know how many forces in the court are staring at the world's number one army, and the firearms supervisor is now an ownerless thing, do you still think you can keep it? ”
