Chapter 148: The eldest grandson withdraws
The eldest grandson Wuji was stunned when he heard this, and he didn't react for a while, and said loudly: "His Royal Highness the Prince, he has already reversed ......"
"Mowgli will take a look at Song Shu before speaking!" Seeing this, Gao Shilian hurriedly reminded him.
When the eldest grandson Wuji heard this, he saw that Li Shimin and the others had wrong faces, and hurriedly lowered his head to look at the music in his hand.
It's no wonder that the eldest grandson Wuji, who suffered so much grievances today, heard Zhu Yuan say bad things about Li Chengqian all the way on the way here, you must know that Zhu Yuan is Li Shimin's confidant, and what he said represents Li Shimin at a certain time.
When he heard that "the rebel son is rebellious," he immediately linked this matter with Li Chengqian, after all, they are now putting a lot of pressure on Li Chengqian, and Li Chengqian's temper is very likely to be forced to rebel, otherwise why would Li Chengqian send someone to block his door
But when the eldest grandson Wuji wanted to scold his mother after reading Liu Dewei's recital, it turned out to be Li You, the king of Qi, who rebelled.
A few days ago, Li Shimin's edict was sent to Qizhou, ordering Li You and his teacher Quan Wanji to return to Beijing for investigation, Li You was afraid that he would be punished for returning to Beijing, and at the instigation of his uncle Yin Hongzhi, he actually sent assassins to kill Quan Wanji, who set off first, and killed Quan Wanji, Li You did not dare to enter Beijing, so he simply raised the flag in Qizhou.
Liu Dewei, who had already left Qizhou first, immediately reported to Li Shimin when he heard about it, and Li Shimin had just received the message of Li You's rebellion, and he was so angry that he forgot all his hatred for Li Chengqian.
In fact, Li You's rebellion is only in Qizhou now, and it is not a big deal that he hasn't even moved the nest, but after all, this is the prince's rebellion in the territory, who knows if Li You will directly send troops all the way to Chang'an City
In addition, Li Shimin was also very uncomfortable, his favorite son Li Tai rebelled a few years ago and almost didn't kill him, and then he pinned his hopes on Li Chengqian. As a result, Li Chengqian had to screw with him for everything, the two of them had been fighting for a few months, seeing that Chang'an City was unstable, and Qizhou was the opposite, I can't help but say that this father failed!
Although Li Shimin was extremely reluctant to let the ministers see his jokes, he still called the ministers to discuss what to do
These ministers in the palace came and heard that the king of Qi rebelled in Qizhou, and they were speechless enough, and the capital still made me worry about it, because Li Tai had killed so many ministers in the past two months.
Now that Li Chengqian and the eldest grandson Wuji are at war again, this has not yet decided the winner or loser, Qizhou is reversed, so the ministers in the palace are also very heavy when they hear the news, and the eldest grandson Wuji has said a few wrong words in a row, but he has not reacted.
But the reaction is a big deal, who is the crown prince?
The second person in Datang!
"Eldest grandson Sikong, tell me why you sent troops to attack the East Palace" Eldest grandson Wuji was thinking about why Li You rebelled.
Cheng Mingzhen's side is not reluctant, and now that their family is tied to Li Chengqian's chariot, the eldest grandson Wuji actually thinks of sending troops to attack the East Palace, can this matter be careless
The eldest grandson Wuji was bitter but had nothing to say when he heard this, Li Chengqian was going to attack the East Palace if he didn't oppose him, this is a big crime of disrespect, no matter how clever he is, he can't say a word of justification.
I had to make a big salute to Li Shimin and said, "Please punish Your Majesty." ”
All the ministers in the palace looked at Li Shimin and waited for him to express his position, because Li Shimin's attitude at this time represented the abolition of Li Chengqian, which involved the issue of standing in line and the lives of some people.
Li Shimin's face was already frosty at this time, if he didn't punish the eldest grandson Wuji now and didn't have a reasonable explanation, he couldn't explain it today, but what should he do before he started a war with Li Chengqian, and his own general was accidentally injured......
"Now that the King of Qi is rebelling in Qizhou, how can he only pay attention to these trivial things that are wrong in words" Xiao Yu put on his old qualifications and wanted to relieve Li Shimin.
It's just that as soon as his words fell, he heard Ma Zhou say quietly: "Anyway, Taifu Xiao still has the official position of the crown prince and the prince on your head, how can you say that the safety of the East Palace is a trivial matter"
Xiao Yu was unconvinced and said loudly: "It's just a mistake in words, how can it affect the safety of the East Palace?"
"Mrs. Xiao's words are bad, if a playboy on the street says this, he doesn't have to pay attention to it, if it is an ordinary scholar or martial artist, he can be killed directly with a cane.
However, the eldest grandson Sikong is in charge of the Pingzhang Courtyard, and the prime minister is the head of the Son of Heaven's close ministers and relatives, so the relationship between the Son of Heaven and the prince makes people have to think about what his intentions are," Cheng Mingzhen has never been polite when he speaks.
Li Shimin originally asked Xiao Yu to argue with Cheng Mingzhen to see if he could turn it over, but he didn't want to think that the eldest grandson Wuji, who could speak well, gave up saving himself, and only one Xiao Yu could turn it over
Seeing that Cheng Mingzhen was about to convict the eldest grandson Wuji after saying a few more words, he hurriedly spoke: "The eldest grandson Wuji first committed murder on the street, and then offended the prince with words, so that he went home and thought about it behind closed doors, waiting for the Ministry of Officials and the Criminal Department to discuss and deal with him. ”
Li Shimin used the procrastination technique very cleverly, and the eldest grandson Wuji also understood and hurriedly saluted and retired.
Li Shimin saw the eldest grandson Wuji's back walking out of the Liangyi Palace, and his heart was also very angry, thinking that all this was caused by Li You's "rebel", so Yang Yang asked in his hand: "How to deal with this matter, you can all talk about it"
"Please lead the troops to quell the rebellion!" Hou Junji was the first to stand up.
Li Shimin pondered for a while when he heard this: "For the matter of counterinsurgency, I am going to let Li Shiji go from Luoyang, and recruit the government soldiers around Luoyang to go to Qizhou on the spot, so as to save a lot of things." ”
"What Your Majesty said is very true, but I don't know if there are other vassal kings who responded to King Qi's rebellion, and the court still needs to take precautions." Gao Shilian continued.
Li Shimin also groaned when he heard this, as if he was wondering if other vassal kings would also rebel at this time.
"Your Majesty, when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince dealt with Quan Wanji's impeachment of King Qi last time, although it seemed to be biased towards King Qi, if the imperial court issued a clear decree at that time, King Qi might not dare to return to Chang'an City, why don't you ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to come down and discuss......" Yang Shidao wanted to take the opportunity to ease the relationship between Li Shimin and Li Chengqian.
"What Qi Wang I have already decreed to abolish him as a concubine.
The rebellious heart of this rebellious son is by no means born today, and it is useless to appease him.
Besides, the prince is not in good health now, so he will not work on this matter. ”
Before Yang Shidao finished speaking, he was interrupted by Li Shimin, after all, he personally denied Li Chengqian's instructions at that time, and if he admits that Li Chengqian is right now, it is tantamount to admitting that Li Shimin forced his son to rebel, which Li Shimin cannot accept.
Yang Shidao was stunned for a moment and didn't dare to say more, and the other ministers saw that Li Shimin had decided to send Li Shiji to Qizhou to quell the rebellion, and they all kept silent when there was anything else important.
Li Shimin thought about the events of the past few days, and looked at the ministers in front of him and felt very irritable, so he said reluctantly: "Since the big thing has been decided, all the ministers should step down!" ”
"The ministers are leaving."
Seeing that the ministers were leaving, Li Shimin hurriedly said: "Xiao Qing's family stays first, I still have something to tell you." ”
When Xiao Yu heard this, he sat in his position and did not move, and when the ministers walked out of the hall, Li Shimin glanced at the inner servants in the hall, and the inner servants also quietly withdrew from the main hall.
Li Shimin saw that only Xiao Yu was left in the hall, so he said directly: "Now let's talk about how to beat this rebel in Chang'an City." ”
If the eldest grandson Wuji was here, he would definitely be able to hear that Li Shimin's attitude towards Li Chengqian had changed, and he would definitely change his strategy accordingly.
But Xiao Yu didn't hear it, and said a little excitedly when he heard the words: "The minister has something to tell Your Majesty, if this matter is successful, the East Palace can learn a lesson." ”
"Oh"
