Finally, Sun Simiao opened his eyes, and he said, "Your Highness, please let the old man give it a try and see if the judgment is accurate." ”

Sun Simiao took out acupuncture on the spot and treated Li Chengqian. When he first used the needle, Li Chengqian didn't feel it. When the seventh needle was pricked, Li Chengqian began to feel numb in his foot, and then the pain began to subside.

Li Chengqian said: "Old doctor, the pain has indeed been reduced. ”

Sun Simiao said: "Your Highness's foot disease has never been encountered before. However, similar to foot meridian pain, acupuncture treatment should be the main treatment, supplemented by medication, which should be relieved. I don't dare to say how to cure old age, but it should be certain to let His Highness walk normally, but it will take longer. ”

Li Chengqian and Li You were overjoyed and said together: "It's really good. ”

Lizheng Palace.

Li Tai came to Miyagi and first went to the Liangyi Palace, but Li Shimin was holding a meeting and had no time to see him.

Li Tai was anxious, but he was helpless, he simply went to ask to see Empress Changsun.

"The queen mother, the sons did their own things, but the eldest brother teamed up with Li You to get along with the sons, and first used some mistakes in the "Tuodi Chronicles" to attack the sons and daughters, and wanted to drive the sons out of Chang'an.

The sons were reluctant to let their father and mother and want to stay in Chang'an to fulfill their filial piety, but they had already premeditated and found someone to plagiarize the sons and daughters in advance, so they had to force the sons to leave their fathers and mothers. Isn't that vicious? Please ask the queen mother to make the decision for her sons, woo woo. Li Tai cried to Empress Changsun.

Empress Eldest Sun knew her son too well. She frowned and said, "Qingque, I have heard about you, you and your eldest brother are my own sons, and I don't want you to be at odds."

I also know what kind of person your eldest brother is and what kind of person Li You is. I warned you before, don't trouble Li You. As long as you don't take the initiative to find trouble with others, I'm afraid they won't target you. Not long ago, there were rumors outside that your eldest brother secretly sent someone to hurt you, didn't this force him to clear himself? I'm afraid you'd do the same with it, right?

You say, what do you want me to do? Is it to help you deal with your big brother, or to help your big brother deal with you? ”

Empress Eldest Sun was very sad in her heart, with tears in her eyes, and she couldn't talk anymore.

Li Tai cried for a while, and when he saw that it had no effect, he took his leave and left.

Looking at the back of Li Tai leaving, Empress Eldest Sun was very sad. The investigation of Wei Zheng and others is the government affairs of the imperial court, and she has always been a non-politician. She thought about it again and again, and felt that she would not interfere in this matter, and wait until the matter was clear, and then try to intercede for Li Tai.

After all, Li Shimin was still thinking about Li Tai, and as soon as he finished the meeting, he sent someone to inform Li Tai. Not long after Li Tai walked out of the Lizheng Palace, he met the eunuch sent by Wang De and informed him to go to meet Li Shimin.

Liangyi Palace, study.

"Father, save me." As soon as Li Tai entered the door, he fell to his knees.

"Qingque, what are you doing here? Hurry up and speak. Li Shimin said in surprise.

Li Tai stood up and sat down beside Li Shimin.

"Father, Li You they are too bullying, they are jealous of their father's love for their sons, and they do everything possible to attack their sons, you see, the sons have worked hard to compile the "Tuodi Chronicles", they secretly plagiarized the achievements of the sons to attack the sons, this is not counted, they actually secretly captured the sons of the chief of the guard Zhu Ji, and they had to bend into a trick and kill the sons before they would stop."

"What? How could there be such a thing? Who did this to you? Li Shimin said angrily.

"The people of Yushitai did it, and it must have been instructed by Li You and others." Li Tai continued to cry.

"Huh?" Li Shimin had a headache. He knew that this must have been Wei Zheng's intervention. Wei Zheng is impartial and selfless, and if he does not have solid evidence, he will not meddle rashly. Wei Zheng is sophisticated, it can be said that he must have mastered a certain amount of evidence, and then filed a case in the Imperial History Tower, which is to enter the formal judicial process. Things are a lot more troublesome.

Li Shimin asked: "Qingque, what did you do, Wei Zheng will personally intervene in this matter?" ”

Li Tai said: "Erchen usually only recites poems and inks, and then compiles the "Tuodi Chronicles", who is in the way? Erchen didn't know why they arrested Erchen's guard captain, which was clearly aimed at Erchen. ”

"You really didn't let Zhu Jian do anything illegal?" Li Shimin asked.

"How could Erchen do something illegal? Even if Zhu Yu did something illegal outside, Erchen didn't know. He is starting to stay behind now, ready to put the responsibility on Zhu Ji.

Li Shimin frowned and thought for a while, and said, "Okay, you go back first, and I'll send someone to call Wei Zheng." ”

After Li Tai left, Li Shimin asked Wang De to send someone to call Wei Zheng to meet him.

Qi Wangfu.

Not long after Li You and Sun Simiao returned, Wei Zheng and Xue Rengui came to ask for a meeting.

Wei Zheng said: "Your Highness, Your Majesty just called the ministers to talk and asked for the release of Zhu Wei. The minister took out Wang Kemin's confession, but His Majesty did not insist. However, he said that the matter involved Li Tai, and that the prisoner should be detained by the court and interrogated. The minister was helpless and promised to hand over Zhu Yu to the people of the Hundred Cavalry Division tomorrow morning.

However, this Zhu Wei is extremely stubborn and refuses to confess so far. ”

Xue Rengui said embarrassedly: "Lord Wang, the minister is incompetent and has not completed the task, please punish him." ”

Since he was arrested, Zhu Wei knew that the crime he had committed was serious, and even if he confessed that it was instigated by Li Tai, he would not be able to escape death. It's better to desperately keep Li Tai, maybe there is still a glimmer of life. So, no matter what means Xue Rengui and others used, he gritted his teeth and carried it.

Tomorrow, Zhu Wei will be handed over to the people of the Hundred Cavalry Division, and it will be difficult to say.

At this time, Li You was also worried.

Zhu Yu didn't explain this matter, and at most he would be traced down to him, and he still couldn't deal with Li Tai. Moreover, Zhu Wei did not confess, there was no evidence, Li Tai was beaten upside down, and if Li Shimin sent someone to try it, that Wang Kemin might also retract his confession. When the time comes, it will be said that Xue Rengui and others will be beaten into tricks, and things will be troublesome.

At this time, it was already half past three in the afternoon, and there was not much time left for Wei Zheng and the others.

What to do?

Li You said to the white tiger: "You go to Gao Henian and let him try." ”

The white tiger immediately ran out.

At 5 o'clock in the afternoon, Gao Henian came back with Baihu, and he said depressedly: "Lord Wang, the minister is incompetent, the minister ordered several acupuncture points on him, and it is absolutely unbearable for ordinary people, this guy is also rolling on the ground in pain, but he just doesn't move." What a good man. There was also a hint of appreciation in the words.

Wei Zheng said hatefully: "It seems that Li Tai is going to escape punishment again this time." When will the court be truly quiet? ”8)
