Chapter 351: Suspicion
Li Chengqian looked at the secret report that had just been sent in his hand, and he was angry, and these rebellious guys were all relatives of his family.
King Jing Li Yuanjing is his own uncle, Fang Yiai and Chai Lingwu are his brothers-in-law, and Xue Wanche is his uncle.
These people don't think about the emperor's grace, even if they forget it, now they dare to join forces to deal with him, this is the rhythm of forcing him to death, how can he, Li Chengqian, endure this breath.
However, then again, how many royal relatives have joined the ranks of opposing him, and he must thoroughly investigate this.
Then, it is good to catch them all, so as not to slip through the net, if this is to give you a rebellion or something every once in a while, even if you make a mess, it is enough to choke.
Therefore, it is necessary to catch them all in order to prevent future troubles.
"In addition to Li Yuanjing, the king of Jing, Li Daozong, the king of Jiangxia, the Duke of Anguo, Chai Zhewei, and other cadres are also involved, you must find out for me." Li Chengqian said to Long Zhi, the commander of the Jinyi Guard.
This is a major event related to the turmoil in the world, and it is related to the question of whether he can sit firmly on the throne of the emperor.
"Your Majesty, rest assured! The minister has ordered the brothers of Jinyiwei to closely monitor the king of Jiangxia, An Guogong and others, and as soon as there is news, the minister will immediately report to His Majesty. Ryuji said.
"This matter is very important, and no clues can be missed, and we must carefully understand it for me." Li Chengqian said.
"The minister understands!" Ryuji said.
"You go first! If there is enough evidence to prove that they have rebelled, I will allow you to take action, and if necessary, you can correct the law on the spot. Li Chengqian said.
If these people really have bad intentions, he doesn't have to be polite to them, and he will be executed directly.
"No!" Ryuji bowed and retreated.
After Long Zhi left, Li Chengqian fell into deep thought, and if he wanted to say that Li Daozong and others had the intention of rebelling, Li Chengqian did not believe it.
Except for Chai Lingwu, Xue Wanche and Fang Yiai, he is not bad to others, high-ranking officials, glory and wealth, what reason do they have to support Li Yuanjing.
To say that they did not collude together, Li Chengqian also does not believe it, in history, Gaozong Li Zhi did not restore their official positions and titles after the exile of the eldest grandson Wuji and others.
They didn't even have the idea of giving them redress for their grievances, let alone any actions, these people were Wu Zetian to redress their grievances for Zhaoxue.
If they were really wronged, why didn't Tang Gaozong give them redress for Zhaoxue, but waited until Wu Zetian redressed Zhaoxue for them.
There is only one answer, that is, they all threaten Li Zhi's rule, and it just so happens that the eldest grandson Wuji and Chu Suiliang want to eradicate dissidents.
A tacit understanding was reached between them, and Tang Gaozong used the power of Changsun Wuji and others to completely eradicate these people who threatened him.
This not only solves the hidden danger, but also throws the pot on the eldest grandson Wuji and others, and if it is really liquidated with the eldest grandson Wuji and others in the future, this matter can be taken out to talk about it.
This is simply a multi-kill thing, and you don't have to carry the pot yourself, so why not.
After the fall of the eldest grandson Wuji and others, as for why they didn't redress the grievances of Li Daozong and others, it was because Tang Gaozong was behind the scenes.
If you redress their grievances, don't you just slap him in the face of Tang Gaozong again, which will make him unable to sleep day and night, then it is better to continue to let them bear the charge of rebellion.
These are just Li Chengqian's speculations, and there is no evidence to prove that his speculations are correct, not that these people also participated in the rebellion.
Wu Zetian gave them redress for their grievances, but it was just a political measure.
Therefore, Li Chengqian must strictly investigate, and there must be no negligence in this regard.
"Everyone! Taiwei Changsun Wuji, Shangshu's right servant shot Chu Suiliang and asked to see! A eunuch walked in and reported to Li Chengqian, bringing Li Chengqian back to reality in his thoughts.
"Xuan!" Li Chengqian said, he had already guessed how much the eldest grandson Wuji and Chu Suiliang were coming!
"No!" The eunuch retreated, and suddenly there was a sound of footsteps, and Li Chengqian didn't need to look up to know that the eldest grandson Wuji and Chu Suiliang were coming.
"The old minister, Sun Wuji (Chu Suiliang), greets Your Majesty!" The eldest grandson Wuji and Chu Suiliang saluted Li Chengqian.
Li Chengqian glanced up at them, changed to a comfortable position, reclined and asked, "Do you have anything to do with me?" ”
"Your Majesty! The minister came this time to report to His Majesty that Fang Ai and Chai Lingwu and others were plotting to rebel, and implored His Majesty to investigate the matter thoroughly. The eldest grandson Wuji said.
"How do you know this? Where did you get the news that they are plotting a rebellion? Li Chengqian asked.
In his heart, he was amazed that the intelligence network of Changsun Wuji and others was so powerful, and he had just learned about the rebellion of Fang Yiai and others.
How long has it been? The eldest grandson Wuji and the others actually knew such a thing, which made Li Chengqian a little uneasy, whether he also had the eyeliner of the eldest grandson Wuji by his side.
"These are all news that the old minister has inquired about, Fang Yiai and Chai Lingwu conspired to rebel, because the secrecy work was not good enough, which led to the revelation of the matter, and the minister only then knew that there was such a thing." The eldest grandson Wuji said.
"When the captain learned of this, he asked the old minister to discuss, and only then did he find out that Fang Yiai and Chai Lingwu and others had rebelled." Chu Sui is good.
After Li Chengqian heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief, but he still maintained a little vigilance against the eldest grandson Wuji and Chu Suiliang, who knows if what they said was true or false.
"Who is plotting to rebel?" Li Chengqian asked.
"In addition to Fang Yiai and the eldest princess of Gaoyang, Chai Lingwu and the eldest princess of Baling, as well as Xue Wanche and the eldest princess of Danyang, King Jing Li Yuanjing and other main culprits."
"Li Ke, King of Wu, Li Daozong, King of Jiangxia, Yuwenjie, General Zuo Xiaowei, An Guogong and their relatives all participated in this rebellion." The eldest grandson Wuji said.
"Uncle, what evidence does he have to prove that King Jiangxia and they also participated in the rebellion?" Li Chengqian asked.
"The old minister has no evidence for the time being, but the old minister implores His Majesty to issue an edict to take them down, and only need more interrogation to be able to interrogate whether they have rebelled." The eldest grandson Wuji said.
As long as these people are in his hands, there are many ways for his eldest grandson Wuji to make the other party admit the crime of rebellion.
Under severe torture to extract confessions, even a person who is beaten with iron cannot withstand the torture, let alone some flesh and skin.
"They are all heroes of my Datang, and there is no evidence to prove that they rebelled, I will not issue an edict to take them down, and it is not too late to accuse them when there is enough evidence." Li Chengqian said.
Naturally, he will not fall for the eldest grandson Wuji and others, who knows if this good person will be beaten into a trick if he enters the prison.
