The pillars of the clear stream at the east tail did not dare to provoke Zhu Wen's henchmen at the west tail, but they were unceremonious to the traitors Pei Shu and Kong Lin among them.

These people all scolded Pei Shu and Kong Lin in a low voice, scolding them for their soft bones and treacherous people.

Pei Shu and Kong Lin could only shake their heads and smile bitterly, they knew these people too well, because they were the same as them before.

Li Ji sat on the dragon couch in Hanyuan Hall early, to be honest, this dragon tatami mat is not comfortable.

It's too hard, not to mention, the design is not reasonable, it's easy to get tired after sitting for a long time, and there are dogs standing aside.

He is now studying the jade seal on the imperial case, the legendary imperial jade seal. However, it is useless, and the official edict needs to go through the various processes of Zhongshu Province, Shangshu Province, and Menxia Province.

In the Tang Dynasty, even if it was Li Shimin's matter, the emperor's rights would be subject to many restrictions.

Military and political leaders must first make a predetermined policy in the province and draft it as an edict. Then it will be handed over to the province of the door for replay, if the province of the door thinks that there is a problem with the edict, it can be sent back for redraft, and finally it can be handed over to the province of Shangshu for issuance.

Therefore, it is not that the emperor can do whatever he wants, and in the prosperous era, this kind of restriction on power can indeed avoid some erroneous edicts from being issued.

But if it is a troubled time, there will be many drawbacks to the restriction of imperial power. What is needed in troubled times is the absolute concentration of imperial power, and now Li Jifei has no fart, so he can only take his time step by step.

The Tang Dynasty has been torn apart, and the edict issued by the local Fan Town to the emperor is just a dead letter, and no one cares about you at all.

Moreover, the edicts issued now are all issued by Zhu Wen under the banner of the emperor, and they have nothing to do with you, Li Ji.

However, today's early dynasty should have nothing to do with these, and Zhu Wen should be most concerned about killing someone.

"King Liang has arrived!" Finally, Zhu Wen came.

The courtiers of the Tang Dynasty were sitting, and as soon as Zhu Wen arrived, all the civil and military ministers stood up and saluted.

Zhu Wen's cold face was followed by Zhang Guihou and Zhang Guiba, as well as the general Ge Congzhou.

"Congratulations to King Liang for his triumphant return from defeating the traitor!" The ministers said in unison.

Zhu Wen walked straight to a chair on the left side under Li Jiyu's case, and it was not accurate to say that it was a chair. There were no chairs in the Tang Dynasty, and that thing was called a couch.

Zhu Wen sat down on the couch with a big grin, and below were Jiang Xuanhui and other people from Xiwei, and Zhang Guihou and they stood beside Jiang Xuanhui. As soon as Zhu Wen came, his momentum immediately pressed Li Ji down half of his head.

"Jiang Xuanhui, come out!" The voice is majestic and intimidating.

Jiang Xuanhui hurriedly stood up and walked out: "Minister Jiang Xuanhui, I have seen His Royal Highness King Liang."

"This king asks you, what have you done in this month!" Zhu Wen asked coldly.

Jiang Xuanhui didn't hear anything wrong, but just said: "His Royal Highness King Liang, the ministers dare not slack off, and deal with Lord Liu and Lord Li and others every day to deal with the government affairs in various places and discuss the government affairs."

The privy envoy took the military and political power into his own hands and did it cheaply, and the scope of his duties was expanded to the limit, and his status rose rapidly, and "the power was over the prime minister."

Zhu Wen forcibly suppressed his anger: "Discuss the government? How did you discuss, did you discuss when this king will die? ”

Jiang Xuanhui was only frightened, and hurriedly knelt down and said: "The minister never dares to have this thought, the minister only knows that he is loyal to King Liang to assist His Majesty, and he also asks King Liang to investigate."

Zhu Wen sneered: "Of course this king will be aware that this king is fighting against all kinds of rebels outside, what is the reason for you to curse and insult this king in this palace!"

"The minister has no intention of insulting the king of Liang, and the minister's heart for the king of Liang can be learned every day!"

"You thief, you really don't cry when you don't see the coffin! This king has come to ask you what you have been talking to your majesty all day! Zhu Wen angrily pointed at Li Ji behind him.

Faint gentleman, you have to pretend to be faint. Li Ji crossed Erlang's legs, lay on the dragon couch, and looked up at the beam with both eyes: "Jiang Aiqing, this is your mistake." You always tell me that King Liang should have died a long time ago, and as soon as this old thing dies, this Tang Dynasty will rely on you. I'm still young, and what can I do? However, King Liang has done his best for my Tang Dynasty and died, is it too much for you to scold him behind his back. ”

"You, you!" Jiang Xuanhui stood up abruptly and pointed at Li Ji: "Slander!" How dare you slander your ministers! ”

"Presumptuous!" Youwei beside Li Ji shouted, and then bowed down to Zhu Wen and said: "His Royal Highness King Liang, Lord Jiang is so disrespectful to His Majesty, and he is even more arrogant behind your back, and the little ones dare not speak out."

"Conspiracy, slander!" Jiang Xuanhui trembled angrily and pointed at Li Ji: "Okay, it turns out that all this was calculated by you, and the minister has never had any disrespect to His Royal Highness King Liang!"

Zhu Wen glanced back at Li Ji, only to see Li Ji's nostrils facing the sky, his eyes rolling up and swaying Erlang's legs, looking like a scoundrel. Expect such a little faint gentleman to slander Jiang Xuanhui? Moreover, those guards had seen it with their own eyes, and it was impossible for every guard to betray him.

"Look what this is!" Zhu Wen angrily took out the small notebook in his arms and threw it on the ground.

Jiang Xuanhui hurriedly picked it up, he opened it with trembling hands and looked at it, only to be frightened. Sweat trickled down his forehead and dripped on the floor.

I remember the time and place in the small notebook, and every word I said was clear. What's worse is that he really said these words, and it was the emperor who framed himself.

Jiang Xuanhui suddenly understood that the little faint monarch in front of him was the most insidious enemy. All the facts are in front of him, and Jiang Xuanhui is indisputable.

He only felt that the world was spinning, he knew how cruel Zhu Wen was, he raised his head to look at Zhu Wen's murderous face, and knelt down in front of Zhu Wen with weak legs.

"His Royal Highness King Liang spares his life, spares his life. The minister followed His Royal Highness to fight in the south and the north, and there was no merit and hard work. The minister didn't choose to say anything for a while, and the lard was blinded, and he asked His Royal Highness King Liang to spare the minister. In the end, my heart was shattered and my whole body trembled.

The ministers were all stunned, isn't this Jiang Xuanhui King Liang's hardcore doglegs, why did he want to betray King Liang?

How could you miss the stick beating the water dog, Pei Shu walked over and snatched the small notebook in Jiang Xuanhui's hand, he only glanced at it and threw it away: "Jiang Xuanhui, you are so bold!" You lost your conscience so much, and cursed King Liang viciously, what are your intentions? ”

How could the matter of adding oil and vinegar be without Kong Lin, Kong Lin looked at Pei Shu and said, "This, what is recorded in this book?"

Pei Shu became excited: "Phew! None of the characters in this book wanted to read or speak. Disgusting, phew! ”

The more he said this, the more curious everyone became, Kong Lin couldn't help but pick it up and read a few pages, and then his face changed greatly: "This, this, how can you say such a vicious language, this person can be punished!"

Other ministers, you take a look at it and give it to me, and I will give it to him. After reading it, everyone whispered, and even those Qingliu people in Dongwei said that Jiang Xuanhui was too unspeakable.

What made Zhu Wen happy was that this time, the courtiers of the West Tail and the East Tail all accused Jiang Xuanhui of using vicious words, and the court became a vegetable market for a while.

"Enough!" With Zhu Wen's angry shout, everyone quieted down: "Jiang Xuanhui, what else do you have to say!"

"His Royal Highness King Liang, the minister has not been with you for a day or two. Don't you know what kind of person the minister is, this is someone who wants to frame the minister. Jiang Xuanhui wept bitterly.

Zhu Wen was a little shaken, it stands to reason that Jiang Xuanhui would not be so brainless, could it really be that someone framed him? No way, those guards can't all betray themselves.

Li Ji took advantage of people's inattention and kicked Youwei next to him.

Youwei leaned over: "His Royal Highness King Liang, what else does Lord Jiang say about treating King Liang as his father." According to the slave maid, Lord Jiang's father died early, isn't this a curse for His Royal Highness King Liang. ”

regards King Liang as his father, Jiang Xuanhui has said this sentence to more than one person. Including the courtiers below, many people have heard Jiang Xuanhui say this.

Jiang Xuanhui fell, there was one less competitor, and he had a chance to climb up. A lot of people have this mentality.

So Li Zhen stood up: "His Royal Highness King Liang, regard King Liang as his father, Jiang Xuanhui also told his ministers."

Liu Can also followed: "The minister has also heard this sentence."
