Chapter 325: Impeachment of Chu Suiliang

"That's it! Everyone doesn't have to argue, let Wu King Li Ke serve as Shangshu's left servant for a term of one year, if Li Ke can do a good job of Shangshu's left servant, let him continue to do it. ”

"On the contrary, if you don't do what you should do, it means that Li Ke is really not suitable, and he will take the position of Shangshu's left servant, and it will not be too late to revoke his Shangshu's left servant." Li Chengqian said.

He has already made such a big concession, no matter what the eldest grandson Wuji says, he should also give him face, and took a step back and agreed to this compromise.

"Since Your Majesty has said so, and the old minister has nothing to say, then it's just a year!" The eldest grandson, Wuji, compromised.

Anyway, it's only a year's time, and he really doesn't believe that in a year's time, Wu Wang Li Ke can still make any waves.

In this year's time, the eldest grandson Wuji was confident that he could play Li Ke to death and drive him out of Chang'an.

"Good! Since everyone had no objections, the matter was so decided, and Li Ke, the king of Wu, served as the left servant of Shangshu for a period of one year. Seeing that no one objected, Li Chengqian said.

"You Aiqing have other things to play, if you don't have it, you can retreat!"

"Your Majesty! Chen Wei Siqian has a book! As soon as Li Chengqian's voice fell, the superintendent Yu Shi Wei Siqian came out of the line.

"What is Wei Yushi going to play?" Li Chengqian asked.

"Your Majesty! Today, the minister wants to impeach Chu Suiliang for deliberately lowering the price and forcibly buying the land of the translators in Zhongshu Province. Wei Siqian said.

"Zhongshu Ling, can there be such a thing?" Li Chengqian was taken aback when he heard this, and then he became angry and questioned Chu Suiliang.

In the Tang Dynasty, there were clear regulations on land sales, prohibiting the use of lower prices and forcibly buying other people's land, and once verified, they would be punished very severely.

"Your Majesty! The old minister is really wronged! There is no such thing, and the old minister buys the land according to the market price. ”

"I will never do anything to lower the price, force the purchase and sell, Wei Yushi is obviously bloody, framing the old minister, and asking Your Majesty to be the master of the old minister."

"The land purchased by the old minister is recorded by Zhang Rui, the young secretary of Dali Temple, and the two parties voluntarily sign a contract, if Your Majesty does not believe it, you can ask Zhang Ruizhuo." Chu Sui is good.

The land purchased by Chu Suiliang was purchased according to the price assessed by the imperial court, which was in line with the laws of the Tang Dynasty.

He had prepared a case record from Zhang Rui, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, so Chu Suiliang was not afraid at all.

"Dali Temple Shaoqing Zhang Rui, can what the Zhongshu Ling said be true?" Li Chengqian asked.

Zhang Ruishu hurriedly came out and said, "Your Majesty! What Zhongshuling said is true, Zhongshuling did not lower the price and forcibly buy the land, but the two parties voluntarily bought and sold. ”

"It is a transaction according to the appraisal price stipulated by the imperial court, therefore, the Zhongshu makes Chu Suiliang innocent!" Zhang Ruishu said.

It is an unspoken rule that officials use the imperial court to estimate the price of land to buy and sell land, and no one will report anyone.

After all, this is the interest of offending the majority, and whoever denounces this matter will inevitably become a street rat that everyone shouts and beats.

Wei Siqian's behavior undoubtedly offended most of the officials in the court!

Generally speaking, even if this matter is stabbed in front of the emperor, as long as the minister is not too ugly and greedy.

The emperor will not hold the minister accountable for this, he will choose to turn a blind eye and treat it as if nothing happened.

Chu Suiliang and the others naturally knew the doorway here, even if he really coerced the translators of Zhongshu Province.

The trading carried out is also within the controllable range, and no one will be full enough to report Chu Suiliang.

Obviously, this time Li Chengqian did not treat this incident as if nothing had happened at all, but wanted to deal with it positively.

"Since Zhongshu Ling is not guilty, why did Wei Yushi wrongfully accuse him of being an important minister, and what are you doing this for? I'd love to know. Li Chengqian said, passing on a message to Wei Siqian.

"Your Majesty! At the beginning, the imperial court set the appraisal price, which was levied and used when the state needed it. ”

"How can the transactions between the ministers be bought and sold according to the price set by the imperial court?"

"Zhang Rui, as a judicial officer, used documents to commit fraud and echoed his subordinates, which is deceiving His Majesty and should be executed according to his crimes." Wei Siqian said.

Since he has offended Chu Suiliang and others, he will be offended to the end, as long as he can be appreciated and reused by the emperor, he no longer needs to be afraid of these people.

"What Wei Yushi said makes sense, Zhang Rui, as the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, knows that this is incompatible with the law, but he is still bold and reckless, taking advantage of his position to deceive, which is really hateful."

"Chu Suiliang, as a Chinese scholar, does not lead by example and set a good example, but he does things that are profitable and destroys the dynasty."

"Are you two guilty?" Li Chengqian said.

"The minister is guilty, and please ask Your Majesty to be gracious!" Chu Suiliang and Zhang Rui saluted and admitted their mistakes.

"Do you think I should punish these two?" Li Chengqian said.

The eldest grandson Wuji originally wanted to defend Chu Suiliang, after all, Chu Suiliang was the helper left to him by the first emperor, if Chu Suiliang fell, then his eldest grandson Wuji would be alone in the court.

Without waiting for the eldest grandson Wuji to speak, Wu Wang Li Ke was the first to stand up and say, "Your Majesty! The minister thought that Chu Suiliang and Zhang Ruishu should be punished heavily, and announced to the world to set an example! ”

"According to the law, those who deceive the king and reckless should be connected to the nine clans, and the main offenders will be executed, and their families will be exiled."

"King Wu is right! But Chu Suiliang and Zhang Ruiji are first-time offenders after all, so they are exempt from the death penalty, the capital crime can be avoided, and the living crime cannot be escaped. ”

"The two of them committed such a crime, so they punished Chu Suiliangge to the post of Zhongshu Ling, and demoted to the history of the same state, and Zhang Rui went to the post of Shaoqing of Dali Temple, and was demoted to the history of the assassin of Dunzhou, and you are limited to leave within one day." Li Chengqian pronounced the sentence.

As soon as Li Chengqian and Li Ke sang and harmonized, they didn't give the eldest grandson Wuji a chance to speak at all, and they had already finalized the punishment of Chu Suiliang and the others.

This made it too late for the eldest grandson Wuji to pull Chu Suiliang.

"Retreat!" Wang Quan opened his throat and shouted.

"Congratulations to Your Majesty!" The ministers knelt down on the main hall and waited for Li Chengqian to leave the main hall first, and then they got up.

Li Ke got up and went directly to Li Ke's hall and went to Shangshu Province, he is now the left servant of Shangshu Province, he has to go there first to familiarize himself with the working environment.

Looking at Li Ke's departing back, the eldest grandson Wuji felt hatred, and a trace of murderous intent flashed in his slightly narrowed eyes.

The eldest grandson Wuji completely hated Li Ke and wanted to get rid of him quickly.

Li Ke successfully pulled the hatred of the eldest grandson Wuji onto himself, which can be regarded as living up to Li Chengqian's expectations.
