Chapter 453: It's too ugly to eat
There is only one person who dares to treat his colleagues so rudely in the court, and that is Cheng Biting Jin. Anyway, he is known for his impulsiveness, the house in Changle Fang has been selling hot recently, he is soft to make money, and he also has the property fee as a long-term meal ticket in hand, but he heard someone say bad things about Li Dongsheng here, Li Jing is not good at making a move, so he will do it for him.
The minister was also stunned, since ancient times, I have seen a lot of quarrels in the court, but I have never seen a spit and hit a colleague. Seeing that Cheng Yanjin pressed Tang Jian under him, the old fist flew up and down, and the guards on duty next to him and Yu Shi hurriedly came up and pulled them away. Li Shimin's face was also pale with anger: "Cheng Biting Jin, do you want to rebel?" ”
Cheng bit the gold and many thieves, knelt down with a bang, and burst into tears: "Your Majesty, I saw a traitor in the court, and I really couldn't help it." I can't bear to think that these people don't hold accountable those who evade taxes, but they pesters those who are loyal to His Majesty. It turned out that when I heard that there were traitors in the court, I thought it was a legend, but who knew that it was true. ”
Tang Jian's nosebleed, and when he heard Cheng Biting Jin's words, he was also angry, yes, not only did I beat me and I was labeled a traitor, is there still a royal law?
Seeing that the civil officials were beaten by the military generals in the court, everyone was very angry and hated the same enemy, no matter what the previous contradiction was, they all came out to protest to Li Shimin at this time, demanding that Cheng be severely punished for biting gold. Li Dongsheng was put aside by them first.
Li Shimin was also helpless, although he wanted to find an excuse to fool this matter, but Cheng Biting Jin's way was too much, and he had no choice but to make an order: "Cheng Biting Jin disturbed the order of the court, fined him for three years, apologized to Tang Qing's family, and compensated for the cost of injury medicine!" ”
In Tang Jian's eyes that he wanted to eat people, Cheng Yanjin went over and said: "Lord Tang, I was impulsive just now, you have a lot of adults, let me go as a fart!" His Majesty said that the cost of medicine is 1,000 guan, I don't think it's enough, double it, 2,000 guan. To show my sincerity. ”
What else can Tang Jian do, as soon as Li Shimin's punishment came out, all the ministers understood, His Majesty the Emperor is showing his attitude to protect Cheng Cheng and bite the gold, such a little money is not enough for the property fee of Changle Fang Street, and the fine is even more hell, at their level, who still lives on wages.
However, everyone is not surprised that Li Dongsheng is working hard for the emperor's wallet, and Li Shimin wants to completely pocket Jiangnan, so their monarchs and ministers have such a tacit understanding to bypass the political affairs hall and handle several families. With such intimate subordinates, how could Li Shimin not protect him, Cheng Biting Jin came out to stir up the situation, which was also part of their tacit understanding.
helped Tang Jian down to the imperial doctor to see the injury, and everyone quarreled about how to deal with Li Dongsheng. This time, it was the eldest grandson Wuji who stood up: "Your Majesty, you did something wrong this time, you bypassed the political hall and directly ordered the use of water masters to raid the family, where did you place the political affairs hall?" Since Your Majesty doesn't trust me and others, then I will resign! ”
The eldest grandson Wuji doesn't want to stand up, Li Shimin is his brother-in-law, the two really have a deep relationship, and they have worked together for so many years, but he is the representative of the gate valve, or the prime minister of the political hall, if he doesn't stand up and make a statement, how will he lead the team in the future?
What's more, it was Li Shimin who did something wrong this time, and with this excuse, he can still make some articles.
Li Shimin's face was not worried, the eldest grandson Wuji's words were good, the political hall was established by himself, and it was also a necessary department to govern the world, and he also knew that all things in the world must be done according to the rules, if he was really so capricious, then what other departments such as Dali Temple would he do? What do you want to do, isn't it all messed up?
Seeing that the eldest grandson Wuji was about to pick a son, Li Shimin sighed, first glanced at the reactions of the courtiers, and saw that Xiao Yu and Fang Xuanling both bowed their heads and posed as if they were thinking, and the rest of the civil officials were staring at him with blazing eyes, ready to speak again at any time, and then only said: "Why is this happening, mainly because of the urgency of the matter, there is such a situation, and there will be no more in the future!" Let's first discuss how to deal with their tax evasion! ”
Li Shimin has also lived in the house for a long time, and directly used the leader's best ability to change the topic! The eldest grandson Wuji was also stunned, and the ministers below were also stunned, Li Shimin directly admitted his mistake and promised not to do it again in the future, what else do you have to do? According to the records in the history books, at this time, the emperor repented and promised to change it. It's also their victory, but it's not easy to deal with the handling of several families in Jiangnan? It's light, I can't explain it, the law of the Tang Dynasty is written clearly, and everyone is sad when it's heavy, and none of you here dare to pat your chest and say that you are innocent, and there is no shady scene. So everyone is also in a dilemma.
Li Shimin saw that his words froze the people below, and he was proud in his heart.
After being silent for a while, Xiao Yu stood up and said: "Your Majesty, where is the fact that several of them evaded taxes, thunder and rain and dew, it is all God's grace, and this treatment is Your Majesty's personal ruling." However, where is such a big thing happening in Jiangnan, in order to stabilize the situation and people's hearts in Jiangnan, someone must preside over the overall situation. Li Dongsheng was not qualified for the job in terms of age and qualifications, and asked His Majesty to appoint a minister to go to the Jiangnan to settle down so as not to cause turmoil. ”
The surrounding talents suddenly realized, yes, the Jiangnan family was panicked by this action of the imperial court, and now Jiangnan is the head of a place, and the military and government are grasped, plus those scholars are frightened by this incident, then the tea division will definitely have a great development, and when the time comes, there will be some tea quotas, that is, sit at home and collect money. Why didn't you see such a big benefit, no wonder the eldest grandson can be the prime minister, in the end, the vision pattern is different.
The court was lively again. Just now, the emperor was just for the same advance and retreat of the family's gate valves, everyone is of the same mind, but now it is the visible interests in front of them, so everyone let go of the bare-chested one by one, scrambling to fight for their own family, and the scene suddenly became white-hot. Anyway, he is praising the candidates of his own family, and he desperately belittles the candidates proposed by others from the perspective of diplomas, morals, talents, and even appearance.
After arguing for a long time, I didn't hear Li Shimin's voice. Turning around, Li Shimin's eyes were lowered, as if he had fallen asleep. Everyone knows that Li Shimin has seen through his thoughts, but there is no way, he has to work hard for his family, otherwise it will be difficult to explain when he goes home.
Hearing that there was no sound in the hall, Li Shimin asked faintly above, "Have you chosen someone?" ”。
The eldest grandson Wuji and the ministers below all felt that their faces were hot, their eating appearance was too ugly, and they were seen through by His Majesty, even if they were old and thick-skinned, they were a little shy.
Li Shimin stopped them, got up and walked beside him and said: "Since you can't settle down, let's choose slowly, let's go here today and retreat!" Fang Xuanling and the Political Affairs Hall selected people and reported them to me! ”
