A young couple dressed in tattered clothes came from their hometown to sue the emperor, but they did not expect to be assassinated while kneeling outside Beijing.

Fortunately, it was saved from death by a well-wisher.

After Qin Huaidao brought the two of them, they had just experienced an assassination, and the young couple was still scared after seeing Li Shimin.

The two held each other's palms and got some warmth from each other.

"You two are here to sue the Emperor?" Li Shimin asked.

The two nodded in fear, for fear of being killed by Li Shimin.

"Who are you going to accuse? As much as you can ...... with me I said come on. Li Shimin said.

The two looked at Li Shimin and asked puzzledly, "Who are you?" Can you call the shots for us? ”

Li Shimin did not name his identity, but Li Yun said: "Although you say it, the lord in front of you is the eldest man of Chang'an, and he will tell the emperor all your grievances."

"Really?"

The two of them knelt down and kowtowed to Li Shimin excitedly, and kept shouting Lord Qingtian in their mouths.

After letting the two get up, Li Shimin asked again, and the two told the reason for the matter.

It turned out that Chai Lingwu, who was the assassin of Weizhou, privately enclosed land and occupied the people's farmland, causing the local people to be homeless, and the people went to the yamen to complain, but the complainant was beaten to death by Chai Lingwu, and since then, no one dares to sue.

Not only that, but those who refused to move out were forcibly demolished by the local government, and the old father of the young couple was hacked to death by the officers and soldiers for preventing them from forcibly demolishing.

After the couple sued the state capital, Chai Lingwu colluded with them, ignored them at all, and did nothing.

And the local people who were killed by Chai Lingwu were not only their family, but also some people wanted to sue the royal court, but they all died tragically at home, and it is self-evident who did it.

"Do you know why Chai Lingwu wants to enclose the land?" Li Shimin asked.

The couple said, "They seem to be saying that they want to build a manor house for the current emperor to cool off from the summer."

"Nonsense!!" After listening, Li Shimin scolded.

Feelings are to do bad things under their own guts, and the construction of the emperor's tomb is simply a private swallowing circle and seeking personal gain.

"Qin Huaidao, you send someone to settle the two of them, there must be no mistakes, this matter must be investigated." Li Shimin said.

After the couple was settled, Li Shimin returned to the imperial city, and his original good mood disappeared in an instant after hearing about it.

"Prince, do you have anything else to defend Chai Lingwu?" Back in the palace, Li Shimin questioned Li Chengqian.

Long before, Li Chengqian defended Chai Lingwu more than once, and Li Shimin knew that he was the crown prince's person, so he only thought that someone deliberately framed him, and he didn't expect that Chai Lingwu would really do that kind of unconscionable thing.

But after listening to the young couple's words, he believed it.

"Father, don't just listen to the words of the couple, you know, Chai Lingwu is upright and upright, and he won't do that kind of thing."

"So, do you think that the couple came thousands of miles to Beijing to sue the emperor just to frame Chai Lingwu?" Li Shimin said angrily.

"Erchen didn't mean that, maybe someone deliberately framed him." As he spoke, he looked at Li Yun.

Li Shimin slapped the table angrily, knowing his voice, and said, "Hmph! Are you trying to say that these are all arrangements of the Cloud King? ”

"Erchen didn't mean that, just guessed." Li Chengqian said.

He thought that things would be so coincidental, and when they went out of the city to play, they ran into someone suing the emperor, but it was Li Yun who brought it up, which couldn't help but make people feel suspicious.

Li Shimin also looked at Li Yun and asked, "King Yun, what do you think about this matter?"

"Erchen only believes in the evidence, hasn't my father already sent someone to investigate to Weizhou? The time should be almost back, and then it will only need to compare the testimony of the couple and the impeachment of the recital, and make a verdict whether it is true or false. Li Yun said.

"It makes sense."

Li Shimin had sent someone to Weizhou long ago, and he should be back at this moment.

……

------

Five days later, the investigators who had returned from Weizhou had quietly returned to Beijing, and no one had discovered their existence.

They directly reported it to Li Shimin, and the results of their investigation were not the same as the impeachment of Chai Lingwu and the testimony of the couple, but they were also very different.

In other words, it is a fact that Chai Lingwu enclosed land, and he embezzled and accepted bribes in Weizhou, amassed wealth, and oppressed and oppressed the people, displacing the local people.

The people wanted to go to other places to complain, but Chai Lingwu made people block the city gate and were not allowed to leave, and those who did not obey the order were directly arrested and tortured to death in prison.

These are all henchmen sent by Li Shimin to investigate, and there is absolutely no fake.

After seeing all this, Li Shimin's heart attack was almost committed, and he angrily smashed the cup of tea in his hand, which frightened the eunuchs and mahogany palace maids beside him.

"I don't know my heart if I know my face, the dignified son of the commander of the Zhenguo University actually did such a heinous thing, Chai Lingwu, this bastard, he is going to hollow out my country." Li Shimin's atmosphere is well, and he is talking to himself.

Li Dequan comforted and said, "Your Majesty is angry, take care of the dragon's body."

"Li Dequan, you go and find the prince, King Yun and Chai Shao, I have something to say to them."

"Your Majesty, it's nightfall, and this is the time to ...... I'm afraid it's not good, you need to rest too. Li Dequan said.

Li Shimin glared at him, and Long Yan was furious: "Go quickly!!"

Seeing that Li Shimin was really angry, Li Dequan knew that this time it was going to be a big trouble, even when Princess Gaoyang was killed, he didn't move such a big liver fire.

Li Dequan didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly sent three waves of eunuchs to the mansions of the three people.

In the middle of the night, Li Shimin urgently summoned the three of them, which shows that Li Shimin attaches great importance to this matter.

Perhaps the sky felt Li Shimin's anger, and it was raining heavily in the dark night, accompanied by lightning and thunder.

The rain hit the ground, and after a while, the whole Chang'an was pouring rain, and after the three of them came, it had already become a soup chicken.

Looking at the three of them, his eyes finally fell on Chai Shao's body, he threw the investigation at Chai Shao's feet, and said: "Chai Shao, you have seen it yourself, it is all a good thing that your good son has done."

After Chai Shao picked it up and read it, he immediately knelt down and shouted: "Wronged, Your Majesty, my son will not do such a bold thing."

"Wronged? The human and material evidence are all there, do you dare to say that you are wronged? Li Shimin said angrily, "And you, the prince, defend Chai Lingwu everywhere, what are you still talking about now?" ”

"Erchen...... Speechless. ”

Li Shimin snorted coldly, and then said to Li Yun: "King Yun, I sent you as the minister of the Qin Mission, and went to Weizhou to arrest Chai Lingwu, if he resists, there will be no mercy!!"

"The retainers obey!"
