The palace passed on the edict and was imprisoned. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Li Su was invited out of Dali Temple by the eunuchs.

The moment he heard the eunuch go to prison to announce the holy decree, Li Su couldn't help laughing. Li Zhi really lived up to his trust, although the little kid was young, but people were still reliable, Li Su knew how difficult it was to persuade Li Shimin, who was angry, to see his side, but Li Zhi did it, what was needed was not only the courage to face his father, but also the unreserved trust in his friend, it was precisely because Li Zhi believed that he would never do anything that harmed the country, and he would have the courage to fight for reason.

The jailers sent Li Su all the way out of the cell, their expressions were very uniform respectful and cautious, cautious, and a little vigilant, before going out these few steps, they were still worried about what was going on with this Li Hou Ye, speaking of Li Su in prison for a few days, Li Hou Ye was comfortable, but the jailers wanted to cry without tears, and there was an urge to change careers.

Stepping out of the main gate of the prison, Li Su's footsteps suddenly stopped, turned to look at the jailers, his expression was full of sincerity, and he even arched his hand to everyone very politely.

"In the past few days in prison, I have been grateful for your hospitality."

The cell leader's legs were weak, and he almost knelt down: "Master Hou has killed the villain, it's not too early, you ...... Let's get out of here. ”

Li Su said affectionately: "The mountains are high and the waters are long, we will eventually meet again if we are fated......"

Before he finished speaking, the terrified jailers didn't care about being rude, and actually interrupted him in unison: "No fate, definitely no fate!" Master Hou, you are good to go! ”

Li Su was unhappy: "How could it be unlucky?" I regard Dali Temple as my second hometown......"

The jailers wanted to cry......

You treat the prison cell as your second home, could it be that we are born to be the house slaves of your second home?

"Master Hou, the cell of Dali Temple is not a good place, you will ...... in the future Try not to come. The cell boss persuaded with a sad face.

Li Su showed a touching smile: "Originally, it was not a good place, but there are you in the prison, for some reason, I actually have a feeling of being at home, as the so-called 'this place of peace is my hometown', maybe I will come back often in the future......

The cell boss said resolutely: "There is no Maybe! Master Hou, you are a blessed person, and you will never come again in the future. ”

Li Su was very moved: "You are all good people,...... I wish I could have stayed longer. ”

The jailers were shocked, hurriedly saluted and said auspicious words, and under the teary-eyed eyes of everyone, Li Su finally sighed, and left reluctantly with a moving smile.

…………

…………

Taiji Palace, Ganlu Palace.

Li Su honestly knelt in the hall, hung his head and held his breath, without saying a word.

Li Shimin sat cross-legged behind the bookcase, concentrating on reviewing the notes piled up like a mountain, and for a whole hour, the two monarchs and ministers were ten steps apart, one sitting and the other kneeling, one criticizing the notes, and the other ...... Outside the gods.

Quiet and silent, the most likely to be sleepy.

Li Su really wanted to sleep at the moment, pursed his lips tightly, forced back a yawn that was about to be spoken, and then a few tears hung in the corners of his eyes......

I'm so sleepy, I still want to sleep...... Li Su had no choice but to desperately let his brain turn, thinking of some miscellaneous things to eliminate his sleepiness, thinking about things that had nothing to do with the situation in front of him, and his thoughts were completely off-topic, such as...... Is falling asleep here considered a loss of honor or a deception?

When Li Shimin finished commenting on the recital, he looked up at Li Su inadvertently, and the first thing he saw was the tears in the corners of Li Su's eyes.

I have to say that the tears did add points, and Li Shimin's face suddenly softened a little.

"Hmph, I know that crying can be saved, and it's not in vain that I wasted my time seeing you today."

Li Su was stunned: "............"

If you tell him that the tears in the corners of your eyes are from yawning......

Li Su decided to shut up very rationally, raised his sleeves and hurriedly wiped away his tears.

Li Shimin's face was still ugly, and he glared at Li Su and said, "Do you know why I put you in prison, and why I dismissed you from office and exiled you for thousands of miles?" ”

"I know, the minister did something wrong." Li Su replied without thinking.

Li Shimin sneered: "It's strange, you Li Su was treacherous and slippery when you were a teenager, and you never made a mistake or omission, how could you do something wrong?" ”

Li Su sighed: "The minister is at fault, and he should be punished." ”

"What are your sins?"

"The minister should not hide these things from His Majesty."

A trace of anger flashed in Li Shimin's eyes, and he said with a gloomy face: "This is your sin?" That's the only sin? ”

"That's just one mistake."

Li Shimin was furious and took the case: "Li Su! Hello presumptuous! Could it be that you still don't know why I punished you? ”

"The minister is stupid, please make it clear to your majesty."

Li Shimin said angrily: "You are bad for my Tang Dynasty and Tubo to make peace, secretly provoked the battle of the Six Kingdoms, and now there are 50,000 Chen soldiers in the southern Xinjiang of Tubo, and the war is about to break out, Li Su, all this is because of you!" Your sin is not only deception! ”

Li Su raised his head and looked at Li Shimin fixedly, facing the thunder and anger of the emperor, his expression was very calm, and he only said lightly: "Your Majesty, everything the ministers do is out of the loyalty of the country, the ministers ...... There is a fault, but there is no sin. ”

Li Shimin laughed angrily: "Do you mean to say that because of you, the two countries have fought and lost their lives, but it is your loyalty to the country?" ”

"Yes."

Li Shimin glared at him: "Li Su, did you take the wrong medicine, or did I hear it wrong?" ”

Li Su smiled and smiled very sweetly: "The minister didn't take the wrong medicine, and Your Majesty didn't hear it right, that's what the minister said, Your Majesty is the heavenly khan admired by all nations. The minister has a word of advice today, I don't know if His Majesty Kenna? ”

Li Shimin's face was gloomy, and he said coldly: "Why do I accept the advice of the criminal ministers?" ”

Li Su smiled: "In this way, the minister has nothing to say, let His Majesty dispose of it." ”

The two monarchs and ministers in the palace were silent again, falling into a stalemate atmosphere, and no one spoke for a long time.

I don't know how long it took, Li Shimin tried to calm down his angry emotions a little, took a deep breath, and said slowly: "If you have advice, you might as well say it, if it is a good advice, I can accept it,...... It's just that the sins you have committed will never be forgiven. ”

Li Su lowered his head and said: "Your Majesty, the ministers are courageous, please follow the courtesy of the monarch and the ministers." ”

Li Shimin glanced at him in surprise.

"Monarchs and ministers play right" is a very formal dialogue between monarchs and ministers, between a question and an answer, every word is recorded in the history scrolls by the sheren, and it will flow for eternity.

If the emperor felt that this conversation was very important, he ordered the summoning of the Sheren and pen and paper before the conversation, and one in the palace was responsible for asking, one was responsible for answering, and the other was responsible for recording with paper and pen.

Today, it was Li Su who took the initiative to ask the official monarch and ministers to play the right ceremony, and Li Shimin became more and more strange, it was the first time he had heard such a request from a courtier after being an emperor for so many years.

After thinking for a moment, Li Shimin glanced at Li Su fiercely, and raised his voice to order the summoning of people into the palace.

The surname of the person is Cui, the descendant of the Pingjinyang Rebellion at the beginning of the year, Li Shimin announced the marriage with the Taiyuan Wang family, and Li Su is considered to have several fates, Cui Sheren quickly hurried to the palace, first to Li Shimin to salute, and then saw Li Su, the two looked at each other with a smile, nodded to each other and said hello.

Grinding ink, laying paper, washing pen...... Everything was ready, Cui Sheren didn't say a word, the brush was full of ink and hovered on the paper, quietly waiting for the two gentlemen and ministers to play right.

The atmosphere suddenly became solemn and solemn, Li Shimin dressed up neatly, his face was solemn and clean, and his body was slightly bowed, no matter how resentful he was against Li Su in his heart, at this time it was already a formal occasion for the monarch and ministers to play the right occasion, Li Shimin could only act according to the courtesy, and treat Li Su as a national soldier and ask about the rule of the world.

Li Su also tidied up his clothes, first saluted Li Shimin, and then did not wait for Li Shimin's command, but changed from kneeling to sitting on the ground, with a solemn and solemn expression.

Li Shimin coughed twice and said solemnly: "What do you want to do?" ”

Li Su arched his hand and said: "The ministers enter the people and the people, and the advice of the world is peaceful." ”

Li Shimin's eyebrows jumped, and he said in a deep voice: "I would like to hear about it." ”

Li Su was silent for a moment, organized the wording, and said: "Your Majesty, the world has changed dynasties for thousands of years, and the rise and fall of the world is not more than three hundred years, less than ten years, why is this?" The minister thought that the four words could be summed up, 'natural disasters and man-made disasters'. ”

Li Shimin gradually became interested, his eyes showed a look of interest, and he smiled: "How can these four words be solved?" ”

"Natural disasters, since the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, natural disasters continue, from the waterlogging in the south of the Yangtze River, the drought in the north, as well as locust plagues, snow disasters, earthquakes, etc., Your Majesty should know that these natural disasters almost every year and everywhere, the light is the grain harvest, the heavy is the family is ruined, and the more serious ones, the people have no way to live, so they rise up, if the time is right, the right time, the right time, the change of dynasty is inevitable."

"The second is the 'man-made disaster', which is almost the biggest reason for the change of dynasty in the past thousand years, the so-called 'man-made disaster', first of all, the monarch is dumb, pro-villain and far from the virtuous minister, and then the courtiers are corrupt, the government is brutal, the people are treated like mustard, heavy taxes, killing at every turn, etc., or the monarch is weak and the minister is strong, the minister is powerful, and the government and the opposition are troubled, these are all part of the 'man-made disaster', so the minister is called ' Only when the monarch of a dynasty is sage, the courtiers are wise, the officials are clear, and the people are simple, can they lay the foundation for the prosperity of a dynasty and even the prosperity of the times......"

"The minister has said so much, in fact, there is only one reason, it is exactly what His Majesty once said, 'Water also carries boats, The people are the foundation that determines the rise and fall of the dynasty, the people have always been the kindest and most fateful people, but anyone who can live, even if they are not so full of food, not so warm in clothes, there is a broken kiln tile covering the sky, and there are three points of thin fields to make a living, they will live in peace, do not make trouble, do not complain, and will sincerely feel that they were born in a peaceful and prosperous world, and they have been reincarnated and lived under the rule of a holy monarch after eight lifetimes of good fortune, and they are willing and grateful to support the ruler of this monarch……”

Li Su looked at Li Shimin's thoughtful face and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, 'the water also carries the boat, and the water also overturns the boat', in the vernacular, this is probably the meaning, the minister just said so much, it is very simple to summarize, the dynasty is prosperous, and the people must really support it, the water carries the boat, and the boat travels far." The people's sincere support is naturally conditional, in general, there are only two conditions, "clothing" and "food", as a holy monarch, so that the people have food and clothing, then, the rule of the dynasty can be immortal, there is food and clothing of the people will not rebel, about "wear", the minister has no other way, probably is to plant mulberry and hemp weaving cloth and spinning clothes, but about "food", the minister has a thing to offer, this thing, can be stable and stable. ”

After saying a lot, and finally clicked on the question, Li Shimin's body was shocked, his eyes suddenly lit up, his waist straightened unconsciously, and his tone was a little urgent: "What can be used to stabilize the country for Zhen'an?" Hurry up! ”

Li Su scratched his head: "This thing...... Well, the minister just came out of Dali Temple, and this thing is still in the minister's house......"

Li Shimin was speechless for a moment, and then glanced at him fiercely: "Bastard thing who causes trouble!" I should really lock you up for a few more days and teach you to introspect! …… What are you still doing? Come! ”

Immediately outside the hall, a eunuch flashed in and stood with his bow.

Li Shimin waved his hand: "Immediately send a quick ride to the Li family in Taiping Village, Li Su, you tell him what you take." ”

Li Su hurriedly got up and attached it to the eunuch's ear to tell him in detail, the eunuch nodded while listening, and after Li Su finished speaking, the eunuch saluted Li Su, and then turned around and left in a hurry.

The two of them waited, and fell silent again.

Li Shimin drooped his eyes and said nonchalantly: "It's still a long time, let's talk about it, why is it bad to be close to each other?" Do you have a personal grudge against Tubo Ludongzan, or...... Entrusted by the King of Jiangxia? It's not a lot of hard-earned money this time, right? ”

Li Suzheng looked at him awe-inspiringly: "The minister has always been as honest as water, and his sleeves are clean, how can Your Majesty accuse me?" ”

******************************************************************************

While the monarch and the ministers played the right game, the Li family in Taiping Village was in a miserable situation.

Li Su has been imprisoned in Dali Temple for five days.

Li Daozheng and Xu Mingzhu were so anxious that they had no master, and they had no ideas, Li Daozheng squatted outside the threshold all day long and sighed worriedly, and Xu Mingzhu washed his face with tears all day long in the backyard.

Li Su repeatedly explained before being locked up and leaving home that the family should not act rashly, Xu Mingzhu was very obedient, although she was in a hurry, she didn't dare to make any moves, for fear that she would do things badly in a daze, but would harm her husband's life.

Wu has also been accompanying her very responsibly these days, originally Xu Mingzhu was quite hostile to Wu, but Wu has a delicate heart, and he is also a stable person, last time he lived and died in the cave, this time the family was in a big disaster, and she accompanied each other from beginning to end, and the relationship between the two daughters actually became much more harmonious.

Li Su was locked up, and Xu Mingzhu vaguely understood what was going on. Last time Li Su had discussed with her, she knew that Li Su had inadvertently harmed innocent people, and this time he did something that made His Majesty Long Yan angry without hesitation, it was really her husband's self-redemption, whether it was atonement or peace of mind, no matter what the consequences, he would definitely do it, plus the Wu family had more or less revealed the truth of some things in the past few days, Xu Mingzhu realized that her husband had done such a big thing.

At this juncture, in fact, the Wu family is also poor.

After all, she is just a girl in her twenties, even if she is born with a demon, she is still too shallow at this age, Li Su poked a hole in the sky, what can a maid who succumbs to the Hou Mansion do?

So every time he pretended to comfort Xu Mingzhu easily, Wu unconsciously felt a little sad when he was alone.

Only she knows best that Li Su is in big trouble this time, and this trouble is caused by him on his own initiative.

Thinking of this, Wu couldn't help but itch his teeth with hatred.

She didn't understand Li Su's thinking very much, and when it was clear that there were all kinds of harm and no benefit, he was like a stupid moth to a fire, and he threw himself into it regardless of it, burning himself to pieces.

The peace between the two countries, what an important national policy, he actually dared to destroy it, and the reason for destroying it was simply because he didn't think about it well and inadvertently hurt the innocent.

This reason looks ridiculous in the eyes of the Wu family, as a Hou Ye, isn't it normal to achieve ten thousand bones? It's just that it hurt an innocent person, is it necessary to do this unwise act as a daughter? What the hell was he thinking?

I didn't understand Li Su's thoughts, let alone agree with Li Su's approach, but Wu could only bury these thoughts in his heart.

She knows very well that Li Su is a very assertive person, once she decides something, others can't persuade her at all, not to mention that he is the master, she is a servant, and her identity is not equal, so she has many things that are inconvenient to say, and it is useless to say it.

Walking out of the backyard, Wu walked towards the gate, rubbing his temples as he went.

In the past few days, the Li family has been miserable, the atmosphere is extremely depressing, and there is a smell of doomsday from the inside out, and even a woman like the Wu family with strong psychological tolerance feels a little out of breath, so she decided to go to the village to walk around and relax.

With one foot out of the threshold, Wu found Li Daozheng sitting alone at the foot of the steps at the door, looking at the fields and mountains in the distance.

Wu Shi paused for a moment, then stepped forward lightly and saluted Li Daozheng.

"Master, it's cold outside, be careful of the cold, do you want to go into the house to rest?"

Li Daozheng turned his head, glanced at the Wu family, sighed heavily, and said, "Troublesome, this time to save ......."

Wu pursed his lips and persuaded softly: "Ji people have their own natural appearance, didn't Hou Ye say it before leaving?" He said that he had his own way to deal with it, and the old man was too worried. ”

"My own baby, how can I not worry, this bastard, who causes trouble all day long, one day will pay for his life and raise him for a decade or two, is it possible to finally let me, a white-haired person, send him this black-haired man?" Li Daozheng said angrily.

Wu also sighed faintly, looking at the bleak winter scenery in the distance, I don't know what to think, and my eyes are a little red.

"Hou Ye has his own reason for doing things, in fact, many things just look at the appearance, and it doesn't matter, such as this destruction and pro, on the surface, Hou Ye was just entrusted by the king of Jiangxia to help him come up with a small idea, he actually didn't do anything, let alone openly oppose Heqin, but since Hou Ye entered the court, although he has a close relationship with many elders, but after all, there is still a real strong backer, Hou Ye is in the court...... has always been alone, with no branches to rely on, every time the slave and maid look at the Hou Ye, they feel that he is ...... It's pathetic. ”

Wu Shi said a little forgetful, the more he spoke, the redder his eyes became, and when he came back to his senses, he found that Li Daozheng's seemingly cloudy and godless eyes were staring at her tightly, Wu was startled, and hurriedly made amends: "The slave and maid are more rude, and the master forgives me." ”

Li Daozheng shook his head: "I am also from a poor background, don't talk about those stinky rules, you continue to say, alone, no branches to rely on, and then what?" ”

Wu Shi looked at him carefully, and saw that he didn't mean to blame, so he continued: "...... The lord should know, now the court monarchs and ministers are all from the door valve, it can be said that the ruler of the world is not the monarch and the minister, but the door valve family, today His Majesty is very wary of those millennium gate valves, so after the establishment of the country, the scientific examination, take the cold, not only that, but also promoted a number of emerging gate valves to check and balance, such as the Cheng family, Li Wei Gong's family, Li Ying's family, the eldest grandson's family, etc., the door valves are numerous, intrigues, but they maintain a balance with each other, and jointly promote the Tang Dynasty forward, Hou Ye is a powerful person who has only emerged in recent years, and the family is only supported by Hou Ye, The honor and disgrace of one person is the honor and disgrace of the whole clan, and the loss of one person and the loss of the whole clan, in this way, the risk on the shoulders of the Hou Ye is too great......"

"Therefore, the slave can understand why Hou Ye has refused to participate in the affairs of the court over the years, but is used to showing people in a lazy and slack manner, because Hou Ye also knows that his strength is too thin, once he encounters a crisis, it is the consequence of helplessness, such as this destruction and pro, His Majesty blames all the charges on Hou Ye alone, which is somewhat unscrupulous, because there is no one behind Hou Ye, so His Majesty will dispose of it, and it will not touch the interests of the gate valve, if the Hou Ye is a child of a certain gate valve family, the slave dare to assert, His Majesty will at most severely reprimand and expose it, and Hou Ye will never suffer from this prison. ”

Li Daozheng's waist pole has straightened up for some time, and the light in his eyes has become brighter and brighter.

"My baby is now in prison, and she has been dismissed, except for the knight, our family has nothing, it doesn't matter if the official is dismissed, it's gone, I'm not rare, but I heard that I have to be exiled for thousands of miles? This can't be done, the outside is very bitter, how can my baby suffer this? I heard you say it for a long time just now, and it's like there's no one behind my baby, right? ”

Wu nodded: "Yes." ”

Li Daozheng's eyes became brighter and brighter, and he said in a somewhat anxious tone: "What if he suddenly has an extra backer now?" ”

Wu was stunned: "Huh? Suddenly...... One more backer? ”

"Yes, suddenly there are more backers, can my baby be saved? I don't have any other requirements, just beg my baby not to be exiled, that place in southern Qiannan is a wild place, I heard that there is a shortage of food in the local area and eat people, but I don't dare to go, I can't go! Li Daozheng kept shaking his head and waving his hands.

Wu Shi was completely stunned, kept blinking, and said in great confusion: "Master, forgive the slave and the maid for being stupid, how could Master Hou suddenly have an extra backer?" The slave doesn't understand you......"

Li Daozheng said impatiently: "You are very annoyed by this girl, I said that there is a backer, there is a backer, you only told me that my baby has a backer, does he still go to Qiannan?" ”

Wu Shi settled down, and after some wording, he said carefully: "If the backer that the master said is today's gate valve family, whether it is the old door valve or the new door valve, as long as there are officials in the court, status, fame, and weight in His Majesty's heart, and this gate valve can still be desperate, regardless of gains and losses, then the Hou Ye will be able to avoid this misfortune and return home safely." ”

Li Daozheng's tone was a little excited: "Really? Girl, you're not scolding me, are you? ”

Wu smiled bitterly: "How dare the slave and maid tell the master? Hou Ye's crime, in the final analysis, is not a big rebellion, if there is a gate valve to step forward to protect, Your Majesty will weigh the pros and cons no matter what, the world is like this, the same thing, the background is different, the result is different, if it is heavy, it is bullying, and if it is light, it is a child's nonsense, the important thing is not the law, but human feelings. ”

Li Daozheng finally understood, his expression suddenly appeared a little hesitant and struggled, and a strange and rare sharp light flashed in his eyes from time to time.

It is undeniable that Li Su often gets into trouble, which has almost become commonplace, and Li Daozheng has long been numb to Li Su's ability to get into trouble.

However, this time it was different, Li Suchuang's disaster seemed to be a bit big, so big that it was beyond Li Daozheng's ability to bear, and it also made Li Daozheng feel a serious sense of crisis for the first time.

He didn't understand the court battle, and he didn't understand why his son would break into this catastrophe, he only knew that he had to save his son, and he had to think of ways to prevent his son from being exiled, in this era when transportation and communication were very primitive and backward, exiled to that wild place for three years, almost no different from beheading the public, the beasts on the side of the road, the miasma of the mountains and forests, the swamp where the murderous machine lurked, any accident could kill Li Su, and Li Daozheng would not let his son suffer from this torture no matter what.

After hesitating for a long time, Li Daozheng finally made up his mind and stood up suddenly, his face flushed, but his eyes were full of determination.

"Old Xue, prepare the horse! I'm going to Chang'an! (To be continued.) )
