Early the next morning, put on the court clothes after a long absence, Xuan Shijing rode the horse to the palace gate, the palace gate has not yet opened, many courtiers are holding the board and waiting outside, the cold winter moon day makes people unable to stand, you have to walk back and forth outside, so as not to freeze your feet, the early morning wind blows on the face, and it hurts like a knife cutting meat.

Xuan Shijing was wearing court clothes, wearing a bearskin coat outside, and sat on the back of Ma Ye, which really blocked the wind.

Maybe Ma Ye also felt that it was really cold this day, and he was not happy to stay outside the palace gate for a long time, so he snorted and looked a little irritable.

Xuan Shijing knew that today's early dynasty would not end so early, so he turned over and dismounted, handed over Ma Ye to the guards at the palace gate, and asked him to take good care of him.

The relationship between Xuan Shijing and the Fang family is also good because Fang Yiai plays the role of a bridge in it, and today His Majesty Li Er wants to make a move in the court, and someone needs to echo it.

Xuan Shijing was soft-spoken, so he set his eyes on Fang Xuanling.

Xuan Shijing didn't believe that Fang Xuanling didn't mention this matter to Fang Xuanling after returning home yesterday, so Fang Xuanling also had a spectrum in his heart.

Fang Xuanling saw Xuan Shijing walking towards him from a distance, and also nodded to Xuan Shijing.

It wasn't until recently that Fang Xuanling said with a smile: "It's been a while since I've seen Xuanhou in the court. ”

Xuan Shijing smiled: "After all, there is nothing important about the kid going to the court, and besides, the kid's official position, it doesn't matter if he goes to the court or not, but today, I want to come to the prime minister and know why." ”

Fang Xuanling nodded: "Yes, it's just that what the matter turned out is, I can't make a conclusion now, everything will wait until the court looks at the situation in the court before talking about anything else." ”

Xuan Shijing and Fang Xuanling chatted a few words at the gate of the palace, which made many people look sideways, after all, there seemed to be no contact between Xuan Shijing and Fang Xuanling earlier, but some people also thought that there was a Fang Xuanling among them, so it was not strange.

The palace gate opened on time, and hundreds of officials rushed in, and after entering the palace gate, they went directly to the Taiji Hall to wait for the summons.

After lining up in front of the Taiji Palace, the civil and military officials entered the Taiji Hall in turn, and Xuan Shijing still followed behind Dai Xuan honestly.

"Early Dynasty, the beginning ~ the ministers have something to play ~~~" The high-pitched voice of virtue echoed in the Taiji Palace.

"Your Majesty."

As everyone in the Taiji Hall expected, the imperial history of the Imperial History Terrace jumped out first.

It is the duty of the Imperial History Observatory to hear the wind and play the matter, not to mention that the matter of Dang Renhong is already a certainty, such a limelight is not in vain, if they do not say a word, it will damage the prestige of their imperial history.

"Speak." His Majesty Li Er, who was at the top, had no joy or sorrow on his face, and looked at the imperial history below with an expressionless face.

"The minister heard that the previous Ma Zhou Daren investigated and dealt with the governor of Guangzhou, Dang Renhong, embezzled millions, fish and meat township, and now has been escorted to Chang'an, Dang Renhong's embezzlement is extremely bad, and the impact is extensive, since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, such a corruption case is actually the first case, Chen Jinyan, Dang Renhong's case, I hope Your Majesty will convict him as soon as possible, and deal with it to correct the dynasty."

The words of the imperial history are not words of criticism, if this is the case, Dang Renhong will definitely not escape death.

After Yushi finished speaking, His Majesty Li Er did not speak, and there was a brief silence in the Taiji Palace.

His Majesty Li Er glanced at the hundred officials below: "What do you think?" ”

"The ministers seconded the proposal." Hundreds of officials give up.

Xuan Shijing stood in place, in the Taiji Hall, it looked very abrupt, but he didn't know what to do for a while.

Seconded with the hundred officials? Knowing that His Majesty Li Er's mind is still like this, it has really become a wall-to-wall grass, but he doesn't go along with it? The flower of the flock? Piercing eyes.

His Majesty Li Er sat on the top, sighed, and said: "The day before yesterday, I saw that the Dali Division had reported five times to execute Dang Renhong, and I was about to have dinner at that time, so I ordered someone to take away the case file. ”

With that, His Majesty Li Er stood up and walked down the steps.

"The law, the ruler of the people is subject to heaven, and he cannot be dishonest for himself. Now I am private, Dang Renhong violated the law, I want to forgive it, it is a mess of the law, I am the Son of Heaven, I can't kneel, but I beg you to love Qing, spare Dang Renhong to die, Dang Renhong's family, two sons, all died on the battlefield, and now because of the law of the Tang Dynasty, but to cut off his father's life, I really can't bear it, since I can't kneel and beg the minister, then I, kneel and beg God. ”

After that, His Majesty Li Er walked out of the Taiji Palace, at the door of the Taiji Palace, facing south, lifted the hem of his clothes, and knelt down.

"I am the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, begging for heaven to leave Dang Renhong with his life!"

His Majesty Li Er, who was kneeling outside, seemed to be full of tears.

His Majesty Li Er's approach really shocked many ministers in the court, and even Xuan Shijing's heart set off turbulent waves.

Dang Renhong does have a very important position in the heart of His Majesty Li Er......

The courtiers who reacted hurriedly came back to their senses, came behind His Majesty Li Er, and fell to their knees one after another.

"Your Majesty, no!"

"From tomorrow, I will live in the southern suburbs, live in an artemisia grass house, and eat a vegetarian diet once a day to apologize for my sins." His Majesty Li Er said.

"Your Majesty." Fang Xuanling's kneeling body on the ground straightened, and he arched his hand and said: "The power of life and death is really in the hands of Your Majesty, why should you degrade yourself like this for this?" ”

When Fang Xuanling said this, it also means that he has relented, not only him, as soon as these words came out, many courtiers echoed him.

The dignified Emperor of the Tang Dynasty went to the southern suburbs to live that kind of life, just to save his life for Dang Renhong, what is the trouble, as a human monarch, the power of life and death is in his hands, whether he is dead or alive, it is just a matter of the emperor's words.

His Majesty Li Er knelt there, still silent.

The courtiers in the back could only kneel behind them.

The sun is gradually rising, sweeping away the cold in the morning, although it is a lot warmer, but in winter, where can it be hot? The stone slabs in front of the Taiji Hall are all cold, and they are not hot.

When he was in the court, Xuan Shijing was just wearing a court dress, and the bearskin was kept in the hands of Xiao Huangmen, and now he was kneeling on the ground and freezing for a morning, shivering all over.

"Why does Your Majesty need to be like this?" The eldest grandson Wuji, who was kneeling behind His Majesty Li Er, finally spoke: "Even Your Majesty said that Dang Renhong's two sons died on the battlefield for the Tang Dynasty, and Dang Renhong is not without merit on weekdays, and the merits and demerits are offset by each other, and the ministers think that it is enough to save their lives." ”
