Chapter 325: Rumors Spread (Fourth Update)

Regarding the solar eclipse, Li Chengqian showed an indifferent attitude, the time of this solar eclipse would not exceed ten minutes at most, he made tea and drank tea as usual, which made Wei Zheng and Xue Rengui very nervous.

Li Chengqian was very arrogant and made people light candles, but he didn't take it to heart, but he was very leisurely.

After a while, the eclipse faded away.

Li Chengqian didn't want to explain, and if he did, it wouldn't be surprising to everyone.

Wei Zheng said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, I'm afraid this is a bad omen!" ”

"Don't be superstitious, it's a natural phenomenon, it's normal!"

Li Chengqian said.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

"According to records, there are countless dynasties that have had solar eclipses, and I don't know how miserable they are?"

As soon as Li Chengqian said this, Wei Zheng didn't say anything anymore.

In his opinion, Li Chengqian's heart is really big, and he behaves so indifferently.

Although he acted indifferent, someone made a big fuss about it.

Rumors about the solar eclipse began to spread from Chang'an City, and the rumors became more and more unpleasant.

In the afternoon of the same day, Li Shimin summoned a large number of heroes into the Taiji Palace.

Among them, there are also two people, the eldest grandson Wuji and Hou Junji, of course, Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling and Li Chengqian.

Everyone saluted Li Shimin.

"Meet Your Majesty!"

Li Shimin's face was not very good.

"Excuse me!"

Fang Xuanling first asked, "I don't know why Your Majesty came to me and waited?" ”

And Li Chengqian stared at these four or five people.

Others were puzzled.

However, Empress Changsun said: "Regarding the tengu eclipse at noon, people have a lot of discussions, all of which are unfavorable to Your Majesty, which makes Your Majesty very angry!" ”

Du Ruhui asked, "What kind of remarks?" ”

"Let's talk about it!"

Empress Eldest Sun didn't dare to say it, so she said so.

Li Shimin's face tightened, and he felt very unhappy.

"There are mainly a few things, first, to say that my position as emperor is not right, and God is angry! Second, it was said that the prince's reform had angered the heavens, and he sent the tengu to cover the heavens as a punishment! The third thing to say is that when the dynasty is in chaos, the people's livelihood is broken, and the people's hearts are lost, God will punish ......"

The more Li Shimin said it, the more angry he became, especially the first point, his weakness was there, and since the change in Xuanwumen, he was haunted.

Now that it's been mentioned again, it's not cool to say anything.

Fang Xuanling said: "Your Majesty, this kind of rumor must be refuted immediately, and those who spread rumors should be arrested." ”

Du Ruhui was even more ruthless, he said: "Yes, Your Majesty, if you find out who started it, you will directly punish its nine clans!" ”

However, the eldest grandson Wuji and Hou Junji did not say a word.

Li Chengqian said intentionally: "Qi Guogong and Hou Shangshu are in poor health today? Why don't you say anything? ”

This is when they stand in line, and they don't even say a word.

It's too out of line with logic.

The eldest grandson Wuji hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the minister requests a thorough investigation into this matter!" Let the minister check! ”

Hou Junji also said: "Yes, Qi Guogong's ability to investigate the case is not weak, let him find out, there will be a result." ”

Li Chengqian asked rhetorically: "How do you want to check?" Where to look? ”

This question made the two of them unable to come back for the time being.

"I don't have a clue, I still want to take the lead, and I don't know what I can do!"

The eldest grandson Wuji sourly says:

"It seems that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has a way?"

"The method was figured out by people, but this king can judge which people are most likely to be the initiators of this rumor."

As soon as these words came out, Li Shimin's brows became relaxed.

He asked, "Which ones!" Tell me about it! ”

"Your Majesty, let me tell you who are most likely to spread rumors and how to solve the problem."

Li Chengqian has a very good idea of how to do things, and he has even come up with a solution to the problem.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, the minister also wants to know!"

Fang Xuanling said.

"Tell me about it! I listened. ”

"This rumor is mainly divided into two points, the first is to talk about His Majesty's pain point, which shows that this person is a little hostile to the imperial court, and he is somewhat familiar with this matter, ordinary people do not know about it, let alone a distant place, so this person's location is in Chang'an, and it is near this imperial city!"

As soon as these words came out, Li Chengqian deliberately looked at the eldest grandson Wuji and the others, and they were a little flustered.

The eldest grandson Wuji said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, what do you think we do? ”

"You don't look at me, how do you know I look at you? Is your heart empty? ”

Hou Junji laughed and said, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really good at laughing!" ”

The crisis was resolved in an instant.

Li Shimin then asked: "What about the second?" ”

"Second, when it comes to Erchen, it means that Erchen's reform makes them very uncomfortable, so for everything Erchen has done in the recent period, they are facing five surnames and seven hopes, and they are the most unfavorable to Erchen, so they will be listed as the primary suspect."

Li Chengqian's words are straightforward, and his analysis is also very thorough.

As for the third point, it is needless to say, which is the result of the first two points.

"That being said, there's no evidence to prove it!"

Li Shimin said, now pay attention to one evidence in everything, you can't catch people without evidence, and people won't admit it.

"Your Majesty, how about leaving this matter to your sons?"

"Good! This matter will be handled by Gao Ming, and no one in the Manchu Dynasty is allowed to block the prince's way, otherwise he will be killed! ”

Li Shimin's words were very angry, and it can be seen that this time, he was really angry.

For such a thing as a solar eclipse, there has been a problem for thousands of years, why it is pretended to be a fuss, he can't understand.

杜如晦 says:

"But if this person catches it too late, it won't have any effect on rumors!"

After all, some people already believe it, and it is easy to spread rumors, but it is difficult to refute rumors, and this is always the case.

"So, this king has a way to reverse the trend of the whole rumor!"

"Oh? Tell me about it! ”

Li Shimin's expression became slightly better.

"Yes! The so-called end of the night is the day, and the tengu eclipse is only for a moment, which is the great test that God gives us. We just need to let people instill this kind of thinking in the people, and that's fine. The so-called use the way of others to govern the other! ”

When Li Chengqian's words came out, Li Shimin patted his thigh and said, "Okay! Very good! Ok, good, good! ”

In fact, the occurrence of a thing depends on what kind of attributes you give it, and in a good place, it is also a bright place.

When Li Chengqian said this, he saw that the expressions of the eldest grandson Wuji and Hou Junji were not very right, and Li Chengqian could basically conclude that these two people must be inseparable, but now there is no evidence, but it doesn't matter, he has a way to treat them.

Then next, I'm afraid these two guys will have a hard time! 21
