In front of everyone's eyes, a long sword was held in the air in a daze.

The sword of the Son of Heaven, a sword symbolizing the imperial power of the Tang Dynasty, has a jade seal of the country in ancient times, Li Shimin loves the sword alone, this sword is ordered by the emperor to ascend the throne after the craftsman made, used to show the martial courage and meritorious deeds of a horse god king.

No one thought that Li Yun would hand over his sword at this time, and the Manchu Dynasty Wenwu looked at the door in a daze, as if he knew this familiar young man for the first time.

The rising sun broke through the morning glow, shooting a morning light, and the patterns on the scabbard appeared to be free in the sunlight, like a giant dragon ready to take off at any time.

In fact, this is all an illusion, where can the scabbard of the Son of Heaven sword fly out of the dragon, everything is only because it represents the imperial power, so it gives people a magical illusion.

In the court, it seems to be calm, but I don't know how many people envy it in their hearts, maybe a certain prince or even an important minister is fantasizing about having this sword.

Owning this sword means acting on behalf of the emperor, or further, owning this sword is the emperor.

"Your Majesty......"

Li Yun held the long sword for a long time, and found that Li Shimin didn't open his mouth, so he could only speak again, and said solemnly: "The minister is holding this thing, he really feels like he weighs tens of millions of pounds, he is very tired every day, and he worries every day, this sword is too heavy, you better take it back and keep it for yourself." ”

"Really?"

"Would you be afraid of sinking?"

Li Shimin finally spoke, asked two rhetorical questions in a row, and then didn't know what to say, and said with a faint chuckle: "You have natural divine power, even if it weighs 10,000 catties, you can lift it, when your father lifted the bronze tripod in the Sui Dynasty Palace, and became famous in one fell swoop and won the glory of the king of Zhao in Xifu, the sword I gave you weighed only two catties, and the copper tripod that your father lifted back then was thousands of catties......"

What the emperor said was confusing, not only seemed verbose, but also sounded incoherent. It's like a guy chatting where he wants to go, and he doesn't seem to know what he wants to say.

Obviously Li Yun wanted to hand over the sword, the emperor just started to talk about Li Yuanba, Li Yuanba held the crown in the Sui Dynasty Palace, and today Li Yun handed over the sword in the Taiji Palace, the two things have nothing in common, and I don't know why the emperor put the two things together.

Li Yun was a little embarrassed holding the long sword!

It is not difficult to ride a tiger, but it is difficult to recover it, he took out the sword in front of everyone, and as a result, the emperor did not make a positive statement from beginning to end, which made him take it back, and it was not if he did not take it back.

"Your Majesty, what's the matter?"

"Is it possible to let King Zhao hold the sword like this today?"

Not only Li Yun was embarrassed, but also some of the princes in the court, especially Lao Cheng Liu Hongji and others, who instigated Li Shimin to give Li Yun privileges.

Time seemed to have passed for a long time, and it seemed to be just a few breaths, then Li Shimin finally spoke again, and said leisurely: "Take it, it's just a sword, I owe your father too much, and the Tang Dynasty also owes your father too much, but I can't give up the throne, I can only use a sword of the Son of Heaven to fool you......"

"Your Majesty's words are wrong!"

A voice suddenly sounded in the middle of the class, and it directly interrupted Li Shimin's words.

But seeing a courtier standing up from the cushion, he said with a solemn face: "The previous King of Xifu Zhao is the former King of Xifu Zhao, and this generation of Xifu King Zhao is the current generation of Xifu Zhao King, although the two are father and son, father and son are not the same person, even if the Tang Dynasty owes something to the previous King of Xifu Zhao, there is no need to send the sword of the Son of Heaven to his child." I only heard that the father's debt was repaid, but I didn't hear that the father and son were collared, if Your Majesty is like this, it will be too spoiled by the current generation of King Zhao, this move is not good for the dynasty, and it is not good for the royal family......

The person who spoke was obviously a speech official and had the right to advise the court, so he was quite arrogant between his words, and he didn't care if he accused the emperor or not.

Datang did not say that he was convicted for his words, Li Shimin was blamed by the official almost every day, although these words were ugly, but Li Shimin's face did not change, but nodded with a faint smile, and said leisurely: "The father repays the debt, why can't the father receive the merit of the son?" If the father's merit cannot be received by the son, why should the prince of the country be crowned his wife and son? Aiqing step aside, your advice is unreasonable. ”

However, the minister did not retreat, but said in a loud voice: "These are two different things. Guogong Xun and Gui Feng Wife Yinzi, it has always been like this throughout the ages, but the sword of the Son of Heaven cannot continue to be handed over to King Zhao, Your Majesty, what you just said is very clear, Datang owes the debt of the previous King Zhao......"

Li Shimin was still not angry, and suddenly smiled and said, "Well, I just said something wrong!" ”

This made everyone stunned!

I have never heard that the emperor also admits his mistakes when the dynasty admits his mistakes!

I only heard Li Shimin say lightly: "I said it wrong, so I changed my words, I owe the debt of the current Xifu Zhao King, and the Tang Dynasty also owes the debt of the current Xifu Zhao King, so what else does Aiqing have to say?" ”

The minister was obviously stunned, and then said mockingly: "Your Majesty is messing around. ”

"Presumptuous!"

Li Shimin roared suddenly, his anger seemed to come as soon as he said it, and he shouted: "How can I mess around? ”

The Yanguan also seemed to be a hard stubble, holding his head high and fearless, shouting and retorting: "I have changed my words many times, like a child, if this is not nonsense, then what is nonsense?" ”

Li Shimin's voice was even stronger, and he said, "I have changed my words many times, how are you doing?" Although I changed my words, what I said was the truth, four years ago, the Turkic army of one million went south, who was sniping alone on the bank of the Yellow River, three years ago Hebei was impoverished, who took the initiative to sit in Fanyang to develop people's livelihood, now Chang'an is getting richer and richer, the people can occasionally eat meat, your Yulu has quadrupled in three years, but you know who is sending money to the treasury continuously......"

When the emperor said this, he suddenly stood up from the dragon chair and said loudly: "I tell you, it is the king of Xifu Zhao, he is my son and nephew, compared to my child, I owe him, and the entire Tang Dynasty also owes him, although I have changed my words, but I am not afraid of the history books to say, today's things are right or wrong, let's let the descendants of thousands of years later comment arbitrarily, but today, about the matter of King Zhao of Xifu, I have decided so!" ”

The official was also tough enough, and roared directly in court, angrily accusing: "Your Majesty is going to be a faint king, how can the emperor not discuss with the courtiers?" ”

Li Shimin also roared, and shouted: "I didn't discuss with you, I just informed you that the matter of King Zhao of Xifu should not be noisy. ”

Boy!

This is the emperor of the ages.

I'm not discussing with you, I'm just informing you, you can listen to it if you want to, and if you don't accept it, you can hold it back, anyway, there is nothing to change, I am the emperor and I have the final say.

The Yanguan suddenly took off the official hat on his head, looked up to the sky and laughed angrily: "In this case, Weichen resigned, Your Majesty wants to be the king of eternity, but Weichen doesn't want to be scolded in the history books, I won't do this five-grade Yanguan, I will go home to farm from now on, and laugh at Your Majesty being scolded." ”

"You don't have a chance!"

Li Shimin suddenly snorted coldly, and Sen Senran said: "Where is Jin Wuwei, before I kill this person in the palace, if you want to go home and farm, then you have to see if I agree......"

Wow!

The entire court hall was in an uproar.

Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, Datang has never had a precedent for being convicted for his words, and he couldn't imagine that today not only broke the precedent, but also directly killed a speech official.

The ministers present were shocked, and five or six people jumped up in an instant, and even Fang Xuanling got up tremblingly from the cushion, and said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, the duty of the speech official is to admonish, if you are convicted for your words, how can Your Majesty open up the way of speech in the future......

Several other important ministers spoke, and they basically persuaded Li Shimin not to do this.

But Li Shimin's face was stiff, and the tiger eyes said resolutely: "I want to kill him, but it's not because of his advice!" ”

The emperor suddenly snorted softly towards the corner of the main hall, and Sen Sen said: "Li Chong, the Hundred Horsemen, you can tell me the reason." ”

The courtiers present were all stunned, and subconsciously looked at the corner of the main hall.

There was no one out of the corner, but a cold voice came out, saying: "Yanguan Liu Yu, Longyou, Zeng family is poor, studying hard, throwing into the family court, entering the court for many years, two months ago, Chang'an spread that the king of Zhao in Xifu wanted to hand over the sword of the Son of Heaven, and the official Liu Yu's house suddenly had a visitor, a gift of 3,000 gold, the guest and the host were happy, it was night, Liu Yu was drunk and stayed in the outer room, wildly said, Datang was not guilty for words, and the 3,000 gold earned easily ......"

There is no fool who can stand in the court, and Li Chong's words have already revealed all the inside information. Liu Yu, the official of the speech, accepted bribes, so he fought hard with the emperor, this person was not steel and iron at all, but was working hard for the three thousand gold.

Things took such a turn for the worse, and no one in the court dared to persuade Li Shimin anymore.

A few Jin Wuwei rushed out of the main hall, stepped forward and kicked Liu Yu to the ground, and then dragged his hair out, Liu Yu desperately began to beg for mercy like crazy.

Unfortunately, no one dared to speak out to help him.

Datang really didn't say that he was convicted for his words, so his official style and style of speech seemed arrogant, even if he really accepted bribes, that is what you know, even if the emperor was scolded, he generally gritted his teeth and endured it, but today, Li Shimin didn't bear it.

If you say that you will be killed with a rod, you will be killed with a rod!

Liu Yu, the speech official, was the first speech official to be killed since the founding of the Tang Dynasty.

In the eyes of later generations, this matter seems to be a little strange and even unbelievable, Li Shimin is a dignified emperor, why do you have to find evidence first if you want to kill a speech official? If the Baiqi Division didn't have the evidence of Liu Yu, wouldn't the emperor be ridiculed for nothing today?

And that's exactly what happened.

In the Tang Dynasty, the emperor and the minister often quarreled, sometimes quarrelling, and even scolded each other, but the quarrel was noisy, even if the minister made the emperor angry, but he never was punished and questioned.

Liu Yu, the official of speech, can be regarded as a precedent.

Li Shimin took advantage of the power of killing, and suddenly spoke again, and said: "It just so happens that I have recently made a decision, and I will tell you on the occasion of the last dynasty, starting from today, the royal family has established a rule, no matter which emperor ascends the throne, the sword of the Son of Heaven shall not be returned, and the sword of the Son of Heaven, which symbolizes the imperial power, will always be in the hands of King Zhao of Xifu in the future......"
