Chapter 201: Retreat as Advance (Dafeng Tui)
Lu Zhilin was agitated by Li Mu, his blood rushed, and blurted out: "Why don't I dare!" ”
"Good!" Li Mu coughed, looking weaker and weaker, and said, "Then come up with evidence!" ”
Li Mu dared to make such a statement because he knew in his heart that Lu Zhilin would definitely not be able to produce any evidence. Yesterday's excrement splashing plan was designed by him and implemented by Ergou himself. Ergou rode a donkey and returned safely, naturally there was nothing to do, and there were no surveillance cameras in this era, even if Ergou was standing in front of Lu Zhilin now, as long as he insisted that he hadn't done it, what could he do?
Lu Zhilin was stupid at this time.
He suddenly discovered one thing, that is, he was only angry from yesterday to now. I didn't think of the evidence at all, he didn't have evidence!!
Li Shimin saw it clearly on the dragon chair, and saw Lu Zhilin's forehead sweating, his face was flustered, and he frowned: "Lu Qingjia, if you have evidence, take it out." ”
Lu Zhilin plopped and knelt on the ground, trembling like chaff, and said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty...... Yesterday, the ministers, the ministers were frightened, and they were all pickled and unbearable, and they didn't care about arresting people. That, that night incense cart was there, and people, people didn't catch it. ”
Seeing Lu Zhilin say such things, Li Shimin understood what was going on. It turns out that there is no evidence for this guy!
Li Shimin was furious, Huo Ran stood up, pointed at Lu Zhilin and said, "Don't talk this kind of nonsense to me, where is the evidence!" ”
Lu Zhilin lay on the ground and didn't dare to raise his head, and said loudly: "Your Majesty Mingjian, although the minister didn't catch anyone, but this thing must have been done by the Hou Zhulu, except for him, who would do such a thing against the minister." Your Majesty! It must be that he took revenge on his ministers......"
"You!"
As soon as this remark came out, not only Li Shimin, but even Wei Zheng and Baiguan felt extremely ridiculous.
Not to mention that Li Mu has great talents, and now the two major companies in Datang are pointing to him to do things. Just say that Li Mu is a third-grade military marquis, how can he follow your little imperial history and make groundless accusations with empty words and white teeth?
When Wei Zheng saw Lu Zhilin like this, he also chuckled in his heart. He suddenly had a feeling that something was going to happen today, and the bad thing would be on Lu Zhilin!
Fool me wrong!
"Ha, ha, ha......"
Three sneers.
The familiar laughter rang out again.
Li Shimin, Wei Zheng, and hundreds of officials, their faces became wonderful.
There seemed to be a sobbing sound coming from the carriage, which could not be heard for sure. Li Mu took a deep breath, sighed again, and said: "Your Majesty, Minister Li Mu dares to ask, this Lu Zhilin has no evidence, and he blames the minister, Your Majesty and the princes, just believe it?" ”
Everyone showed a look of shame, indeed, when Lu Zhilin talked about the matter of pouring dung just now, everyone's thoughts were surprisingly unanimous, and they all felt that this was what Li Mu did, and only he could do such a ridiculous thing.
Li Mu laughed sadly twice, this laughter sounded sadder than crying. This time, Li Mu was surprisingly not excited, did not shout, just sighed again and again.
"Your Majesty, your lords, I, Li Mu, was born in a small family, a small person in a border city, and there is no etiquette. Doing things is all based on your heart, and you may have inadvertently offended some people to get to where you are now. When someone came out and said that I poured feces, no one stood up to say a word for me, and everyone felt that I, Li Mu, would be able to do such a thing even if I was such a person! ”
"Pathetic! Alas! ”
"Some people say today that I poured dung, and tomorrow some people will say that I kill people and set fires and do all kinds of evil. With just a few words, a group of Jin Wuwei rushed into my mansion, rummaged through my room, brought me to this great hall, and forced me to confront me...... Ladies and gentlemen, do you still treat me as Li Mu alone? ”
"Within three days, I was first diagnosed with a brain disease by Dr. Sun, and now I am suffering from a cold. May I ask you, if you were me, would you be in the mood to do some tricks of throwing dung? ”
"Now that I'm confronted, where's the evidence?"
Li Mu roared angrily and said, "Lu Zhilin, you'd better come up with evidence, otherwise this matter will not be over!" You said that someone poured dung on you yesterday and caused you to eat, and you have to rely on me. Good! I answered! Yesterday you ate, and today I will let you, the imperial historian, eat. What is it to fill a wagon? You wait, within three days, I will fill your house with night incense. Let you see what it means to splash manure! ”
When Lu Zhilin heard this, he seemed to have fallen into an endless abyss, got up and shouted, "Your Majesty! Ladies and gentlemen! Did you hear that? In front of you, Li Mu threatened the ministers with such nonsense, is there still a king law in his eyes?! ”
"I see that you don't have the royal law!"
Li Shimin strode up to Lu Zhilin, raised his hand and slapped him in the mouth, and said angrily: "You dare to talk nonsense without evidence? Who gave you the guts! ”
"And you imperial histories!" Li Shimin glared at the group of people who had just been coaxing, and scolded: "You still dare to threaten me!" There is no evidence, casually bite and almost hurt my unicorn, you are in vain as the imperial history, all of them deserve to die!! ”
Seeing that the general trend had gone, all the imperial historians knelt on the ground: "The ministers are guilty." ”
Li Shimin came to the carriage and said apologetically: "Li Mu, it was my negligence that made you wronged. ”
Li Mu was silent for a long time, and Li Shimin said again: "Li Mu? ”
"Your Majesty, please ask Duke Wei to come out and speak. Isn't there one more thing, it's good to make it clear together? ”
At this time, Li Shimin's thoughts in his heart had changed one hundred and eighty degrees, and when Li Mu asked Lu Zhilin to take evidence, Li Shimin still felt that Li Mu did these two things. But who would have thought that Lu Zhilin had no evidence at all, whether this matter was done by Li Mu or not, it was now completely falsely accused. And he, known as Mingjun, made such a negligent mistake, which made Li Mu suffer so much grievance, and then thought of Li Mu's many contributions, Rao is the son of heaven is ruthless, and he also feels quite panicked.
"Li Mu, you better go back to recuperate first, don't be in a hurry about this matter, I have ordered Chang'an and Wannian counties to look carefully, and I will talk about it when I find someone. I believe that you did not do this, so you can relax and go back to recuperate first. ”
"Your Majesty forgives your sins, and your ministers wear sinful bodies, how can you recuperate with peace of mind. Wei Gong, if you can hear, please come out and speak. ”
Wei Zheng really didn't want to come out, because he found that things had developed in a direction that he couldn't control. Lu Zhilin, this guy, has no evidence and no certificate, and by the way, he also reminded him that he seems to have lost his daughter, and he has no evidence!
But Li Mu spoke, and all the civil and military officials watched, if he didn't stand up, he wouldn't be able to. Wei Zheng had no choice but to stand up, came to the side of the carriage, first saluted Li Shimin, and then said: "Zhuluhou, the old man is here, if you have anything to say, you can say it." ”
Li Mu chuckled lightly and said, "Duke Wei doesn't have to be so polite, now I, Li Mu, am the one who bears the guilt, and you are the bitter master." You should ask me, what you ask, I answer. But only if you come up with evidence, otherwise you are also falsely accused! You and I had a grudge before, and everyone present saw it, and if you were also falsely accused, I would have to think about it more. Whether this royal history platform has already been connected in series, and wants to put me to death. Is there any person behind this, or what force is promoting, could it be the Shandong Shi clan who hate me to the core? Or ......"
"I'm worried about it!" Wei Zheng interrupted Li Mu's words, and he had to interrupt. Let Li Mu continue to talk about it, I'm afraid that this matter will implicate the Shandong Shi clan. Last time, because of the matter of mineral deposits, he fought with Li Mu, which had already caused the Shandong Shi clan to suffer a big loss. The six forces are gone, and now only this Yushitai is the power of the Shandong Shi clan, and Li Mupan can no longer be bitten, and now he has to make a decision immediately, the strong man broke his wrist, Wei Zheng did not hesitate to treat Lu Zhilin as an outcast, and said: "The old man didn't mean to falsely accuse the Luhou, the old man just misbelieved the slander." ”
"Oh?" In the carriage, the corners of Li Mu's mouth hooked up a smile, old fox, do you want to abandon the car to protect the handsome? How can I cheapen you?
Li Mu said in a curious tone and asked, "I don't know who slandered me and Gong Wei, this person should be damned!" ”
"It's damned." Wei Zheng glanced at Lu Zhilin and said, "This person is Lu Zhilin Lu Yushi who slandered the Marquis of Lu!" ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar. Lu Zhilin looked even more incredulous, Wei Zheng, you are not authentic!
Since he had decided to treat Lu Zhilin as an outcast, Wei Zheng naturally would not give him a chance to argue.
"The day before yesterday, Lu Yushi came to my house and told me that he had heard about it. Zhuluhou kidnapped my daughter Yingluo for a long time, and Yingluo returned home and said that she had seen Zhuluhou, so I believed it and punished her. Yesterday, Lu Yushi impeached the Luhou, and in his words, he said that this matter, I took into account my daughter's reputation, and only said that my daughter was at home, and did not mention it. When I got home, my daughter was gone. It just so happened that Lu Yushi sent someone to inform me that Zhuluhou took revenge on him, and I thought that the disappearance of my daughter was also the revenge of Zhuluhou, so there was today's impeachment. ”
As he spoke, Wei Zheng knelt straight in front of Li Shimin, took off the official hat on his head, and put it beside him.
"Your Majesty, the courtier's love for the daughter is earnest, and he failed to examine it carefully, so he believed it to be true and falsely accused the Marquis of Zhulu, this crime, Wei Zheng is irrefutable. But please believe that Your Majesty has absolutely not formed a party, nor has he ever been in tandem, and the reason why the minister thinks that it is done by the Marquis of Zhulu is only because of personal grudges. The minister was ashamed, the virtue of the minister, not worthy of the position of the imperial doctor, the minister resigned, hoping that His Majesty would approve it. ”
"Wei Zheng, you!" Li Shimin was originally very angry, but when he heard Wei Zheng say that he was going to resign, he couldn't care about his anger. Wei Zheng was the key figure in appeasing the Shandong Shi clan, and anyone could resign, but he couldn't. If he resigns, the Shandong scholars will not see any hope of easing relations with the imperial court, and in a hurry, it is possible to rise up!
Shandong is rich, there are people, and there is food, if it really rises up, Datang will immediately become a former Sui and become a pot of porridge. Wei Zheng's move, where is admitting his mistakes, he is retreating as advancing, reminding Li Shimin of his own importance, and forcing him to make a decision!
