In the Purple Light Hall of the East Palace, Li Chengqian's face was covered with a layer of frost.

Ikawa's affairs had been delivered to his desk.

Li Chengqian now knows that Dai Zhide, the assassin of Luozhou, is the brother-in-law of King Dao.

And Li Shimin didn't know what nerves he had, he just lived well in Luoyang, and he actually summoned a few princes to accompany him?

Li Chengqian was very dissatisfied with the impeachment of Du Zhenglun by officials from all over Luozhou, and the invention of the reprimand was only the first step, and at the same time ordered the investigation of these officials.

Yesterday, Qiu Shenji sent some official information, and today he reported that the people of Yichuan County besieged Xue Dading.

Although Li Yifu has not yet arrived in the place, Li Chengqian instinctively feels that this matter is not simple, so he is ready to open a breakthrough in Yichuan County and Song County.

Tomorrow is the day of the Great Dynasty again, and Li Chengqian's plan to arrange things in the Great Dynasty is the consensus of the imperial court, and secondly, let's see who else jumps out.

------------------------

The chicken man reported the dawn, and the clothes entered the Cuiyun Qiu.

The palace was opened in nine days, and all the nations were crowned with crowns.

……

……

On the morning of the ninth day, Li Chengqian drove the Jiade Hall to accept the worship of hundreds of civil and military officials.

Because Li Chengqian had just dealt with Lu Chengqing, Zhang Wenqian and others by thunderous means, and sent ten inspectors out to inspect the place, the court was very quiet.

Of course, the civil and military officials knew in their hearts that the impeachment of Du Zhenglun by the officials in Luozhou was not over yet, and they were all watching to see when Li Chengqian would be able to protect Du Zhenglun to death.

Because Li Shimin is now living in Luoyang, some officials even think that Li Shimin wants to punish Du Zhenglun for bewitching Li Chengqian, but even ministers who think like this do not dare to come out easily.

After all kinds of etiquette was completed, Liu Kui stood up and shouted: "If there is something to do, play it early, and if you have nothing to do, you will retreat!" ”

After shouting, he waited for a while, and when he saw that no one in the hall stood up, he shouted again.

"If there is something to do, it will be played early, and there will be nothing to retreat."

Then the guards of the East Palace, who were standing at the entrance of the main hall, shouted to the hundred officials standing in the square outside the hall: "If there is something to do, play early, and there is nothing to retreat!" ”

Several guards shouted in unison three times in a row, and the sound spread throughout the East Palace, so that the upper and lower officials standing in the square could hear it.

When the hundred officials in the hall heard this, they felt that there would definitely be no officials discussing matters in the court today, so they waited for Li Chengqian to announce the dissolution of the court.

Li Chengqian was dressed in a crown robe and held a throne, quietly looking at the hundred officials below, and did not order to retreat after hearing the guards in front of the palace shouting three times.

When the officials were puzzled, they heard a shout from outside the hall: "The minister has something to play." ”

This shout also spread throughout the square in front of the palace, and the civil and military officials in the square all looked towards the place where the sound came from.

Only a short, green-robed official was walking briskly towards His Majesty.

Everyone who knows in the square knows that this official is very famous, his name is Zhou Jinzeng, he was admitted to the Ming Classics, because he was less than four feet tall, he was not allowed to be awarded an official, and the year before last, Li Chengqian re-examined and ranked first to be awarded the secretary of the Zhan Shifu.

Later, he followed Li Chengqian to the north to attack Xue Yantuo, and was promoted to the seven-rank Zhan Shifu because of his merits.

Anyone who knows Zhou Jin knows that because they are not seen well by others, they have a somewhat withdrawn personality, they don't know how to be accommodating, and they do everything according to the rules.

Zhou Jin is loyal to Li Chengqian and is Li Chengqian's confidant, and he stands up in the court, obviously His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has something to say.

Zhou Jin's footsteps were very fast, and after a while, he came to the door of the Jiade Palace, holding a bamboo wat in his hand and said loudly: "The minister Zhan Shifu is directly Zhou Jin has something to play." ”

Many high-ranking officials in the hall had never heard of Zhou Jin, but when they heard that it was him who was the head of the Zhan Mansion, they couldn't help but look at Li Chengqian on the throne.

"Xuan Zhou Jin enters the palace."

Li Chengqian ignored the minister's gaze and directly motioned for Liu Kuixuan and Zhou Jin to enter the hall.

Zhou Jin, who was standing at the door of the hall, tidied up his clothes when he heard this, and strode into the Jiade Palace.

Baiguan saw Zhou Jin for the first time, and saw that he was less than four feet tall, like a child, but he walked and behaved like an old man, and he couldn't help but smile contemptuously on his face.

Of course, some people feel that letting such a dwarf go to the palace will hinder Zhan, and want to remove him from the official position later.

"Minister Zhou Jin see His Royal Highness the Prince."

Under the complicated gaze of hundreds of officials, Zhou Jin had already walked in the middle of the hall.

"Flat!" Li Chengqian's voice was calm. "What is there to do in the Zhou Qing family?"

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the minister impeached Qin Huaiyi for being unfilial to Song County, Luozhou, and it is difficult for him to be an official of the imperial court if he has a loss of morality." Zhou Jin is sonorous and authentic.

"Is there any basis for Zhou Jin's impeachment?" Li Chengqian asked step by step.

Zhou Jin said bitterly when he heard this: "His Royal Highness the Prince, Qin Huaiyi played his mother in his hometown in Hongzhou last month, but he didn't go home to mourn, let alone Ding Wei guarding the tomb, it was for great unfilial piety, and asked His Royal Highness the Prince to send down an edict to severely punish him." ”

"There are such unfilial people in the world!" Li Chengqian was so surprised that he said that he looked at the hundred officials and said, "Zhu Qing thinks that Qin Huaiyi should be dealt with?"

Li Chengqian kicked the ball out.

Some of the ministers standing in front knew that this must be the East Palace's counterattack against the local officials in Luozhou, and the officials of the first department of the East Palace did not dare to come forward rashly because they had not been informed by Li Chengqian, and the other ministers all had the idea of watching the excitement, and no one came out to speak for a while.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that people looked at Confucian etiquette relatively lightly in the early Tang Dynasty.

"What? Zhu Qing has no opinion on Qin Huaiyi's unfilial behavior?" Li Chengqian accentuated his tone and put pressure on the ministers in the palace.

Li Chengqian said that a minister really came out, and this person Li Chengqian knew was Gao Shilian's son Gao Chengqian.

Li Chengqian was happy to see him walk out of his heart, this Gao Cheng is famous for his filial piety, and it is recorded in the history books that Gao Cheng almost died because of the excessive grief of his mother's death, and he was not used to what Qin Huaiyi did.

I saw Gao Cheng walking to the center of the main hall and said calmly: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, it is improper for the minister to impeach Zhou Jin." ”

"What?"

Not only was Li Chengqian surprised when he heard his words, but all the ministers in the palace were surprised when they heard this.

Is this what the great filial son Gao Zhen said?

"Does the Gao Qing family want to defend the unfilial?" Li Chengqian's voice cooled.

"The minister doesn't dare, the minister just wants to play according to the facts.

When Qin Huaiyi's mother died, he asked the officials to go home to mourn and guard the tomb, but Dai Zhide, the assassin of Luozhou, used Qin Huaiyi to treat the people well in Song County on the grounds that he was able to treat the people well, so the officials did not allow Qin Huaiyi to return to his hometown for funeral.

The minister thought that since it was the Shangguan who retained it and the court seized the affection, Qin Huaiyi could not be regarded as unfilial. ”

In the Tang Dynasty, there were many people who took love when they were worried, such as Yu Zhiding and Fang Xuanling, who were given to death in Zhan Shifu, and they were all regained by Li Shimin after their mother's death, and the ministers didn't care about it.

But none of this is important, because Li Chengqian not only wants to find Qin Huaiyi's stubble, but also wants to change the rules.

Li Chengqian's face was cold when he heard this, and he waited for Zhou Jin to stand up and refute Gao Cheng.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, what the minister said is unreasonable." Zhou Jin took a step forward and directly refuted Gao Fulfillment.

Li Chengqian saw that Gao Cheng was still going to speak, so he said lightly: "What's wrong with Gao Shilang?"

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Gao Shilang said that Qin Huaiyi did not go home to mourn and guard the tomb because Shangguan kept him, and the court's love cannot be regarded as Qin Huaiyi's unfilial piety."

"Exactly." Gao Cheng heard Zhou Jin directly say that he was wrong, and his tone was not very good.

Zhou Jin didn't care and sneered: "Shangguan retained the original righteousness, as for the imperial court's seizure of affection, it was just because of the history of Luozhou's assassination, Qin Huaiyi, as a son of man, received the great favor of his parents, but he didn't plead to go home again to fulfill his filial piety, so he continued to be an official with peace of mind, isn't it unfilial piety?"

Speaking of this, Zhou Jin raised his voice and said to the hundred officials: "Is this what the Son of Man should do?"

"Zhou Sizhi, are you saying that Qin Huaiyi has only been to the song once to ask to return to his hometown for funeral?" Sun Fujia, the secretary of Dali Temple, stood up and asked.

"Exactly!"

"Hum—"

Many officials felt incredible, no matter how their mother died, even if they were the prime minister, they had to ask the emperor for permission to treat the funeral, and it was reasonable to recover after the funeral.

How important can a small county order be, and not even run for mourning?

"Humph!"

The hundred officials were discussing in a low voice, and suddenly they heard Li Chengqian, who was sitting on the throne, snorting coldly, and they all looked up, knowing that Li Chengqian had something to say.
