Chapter 759: Disheartened (Finale)
As for how to deal with Li Muyun's matter, Li Er also has a headache, and the key problem is that he has done too much this time, and it is too desperate.
Ju Wentai was forced to kneel to death, and the cadres and generals who were also killed in the family didn't even have a girl.
Gaochang's defenders were also slaughtered cleanly, in order to avenge his men.
This is a very bad example, as the suzerainty of the Tang Dynasty, if such behavior is connived, other subject countries will inevitably rebound.
In addition, Li Muyun's guy acted without considering the consequences, and there were many people who offended in the court, although on the surface the relationship between them was quite harmonious, but when something like this happened, there were still people who fell into the ground.
……
Early the next morning, hundreds of officials gathered outside the Taiji Palace, and the crows were silent.
When the morning sun was rising, with a whip, the gate of the Taiji Hall slowly opened, and hundreds of officials rushed in, quietly waiting for Li Er's arrival.
The main purpose of today's court meeting is to discuss the handling of Li Muyun and, more importantly, to determine the Tang Dynasty's foreign policy in the future.
Li Shimin went to the court, hundreds of officials paid homage, and after the ceremony, the eunuch's shrill voice sounded: "Pass Li Muyun to the palace!" ”
"Spread Li Muyun to the ...... of the hall" The voice continued to pass.
At present, Li Muyun has left his post, and he can be regarded as a white body, so it is naturally impossible to wait outside the hall, so it was not until nearly half an hour before he was taken to the main hall.
"Li Muyun, you are guilty!" Li Shimin was high up, looking at Li Muyun, who was dressed in cloth below, and asked in a deep voice.
"Grass people Li Muyun see Your Majesty." Li Muyun first bowed to the worship, and after getting up, he said calmly: "The grass people don't know what crime they have committed, and the grass people are terrified!" ”
Panic fart, look at your light and breezy appearance, where do you seem to be panicked!
Li Shimin had a black line and continued: "How do you explain the matter of Gaochang? Ju Wentai, as the king of Gaochang country, you let him kneel and die in front of the spirits of a few soldiers, and for the sake of a few soldiers, you actually made a big move and slaughtered the Gaochang royal family, should you give me an explanation for these? ”
"Your Majesty, in the eyes of the grass people, there is only one monarch, Your Majesty." Li Muyun said eloquently: "As for slaughtering the Gaochang royal family, the grass people are just killing the traitors. ”
"Li Muyun, the matter has come to this point, do you think you can still rely on these rhetoric to fool the past? Isn't it a sin not to talk about the Gaochang royal family, but to say that you privately divided the Gaochang treasury and slaughtered more than 10,000 prisoners of war? Some of the courtiers couldn't look at Li Muyun's words and deeds, and sneered.
Li Muyun glanced at the man, and said indifferently: "Lord Chen, why do you want to add to his crimes?" The Li you said is at most the responsibility of His Majesty, how can he be guilty? ”
"......" Lord Chen was silent for a while, took a deep breath, glanced at Li Shimin, and saw that the emperor did not have any special expression, so he said: "Your Majesty is not strict?" It's so easy to say, but it's a deep samadhi that turns big things into small things and small things into small things. ”
Li Muyun didn't fight back, didn't even blink his eyes, and asked directly: "If it weren't for that, what does Master Chen think Li should be guilty of?" ”
"Ignoring people's lives, committing the following crimes, and perverting the law for bribes ......!"
"There are so many crimes, Lord Chen, I have to say that your ability to weave charges is the first in the DPRK." Li Muyun interrupted the other party with a sneer: "But if you want to treat Li to death, I'm afraid these charges you said are not enough." ”
The guy surnamed Chen didn't say anything, and another person stood up: "Why is it not enough, wrong is wrong, right is right, with so many sins, do you still have the face to live in the world?" ”
Then, one, two, and soon many more people came forward.
Li Muyun looked at it one by one, and suddenly laughed: "Hehe, I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect that there were so many people who wanted to treat Li to death, if there was no matter of Gaochang, Li really didn't find out." ”
"It's not too late to know now. Li Muyun, you have been perverse all these years, and it's time to repay your debts. ”
Although he knew that there would be this day, experiencing such a thing in person still made Li Muyun's heart feel slightly cold, sighed and turned to face Li Shimin and said, "Your Majesty ......"
"That's it!" Li Shimin waved his hand, his eyes swept over the people below, and he didn't give Li Muyun a chance to speak, and said directly: "Li Muyun can't be controlled, and the army plunders ......, for the sake of his meritorious service in pacifying Gaochang, he will be exempted from capital crimes, dismissed from all positions, and imprisoned for 3,000 miles." ”
"Your Majesty Shengming!"
"......" Li Muyun was speechless.
……
A few days later, Li Muyun and Su Wanqing, together with the three fat men, Wang Jie, and a number of carriages, appeared on the official road leading to Youzhou.
More than a month later, the group joined another team in Youzhou, turned around, and went straight to Shuozhou.
More than a year later, a holy decree went out of Chang'an, arrived in Shuozhou, and then returned in a hurry.
……
At the foot of Yin Mountain in Shuozhou, in a huge courtyard, a young woman held a sleeping baby in her arms: "Mu Yun, since your father summoned you back, you agreed, why go against his will." ”
"What can I do when I go back, I have already seen the ups and downs in the court, why bother to wade through the troubled waters again, and with my temper, I'm afraid it won't be long before the old man gets angry again."
"Then ......, then you won't never go back to Chang'an for the rest of your life, right?"
Li Muyun looked into the distance with his hands in his hands, with a faint decline and sorrow in his eyes: "I will go back, but ...... Not now! ”
"Why?" The woman asked softly.
"Alas......" The man sighed softly and said, "Lizhen, I heard that the daughter of the Wu family was selected to be a talented person in the palace, is there such a thing?" ”
"Basically, yes, but what does that have to do with whether we go back or not?"
"Some things are predestined, and you can never change them, just like the old man ......."
"By the way, what did Doctor Sun say, can Grandpa Huang's illness get better?" Hearing the 'old man', Lizhi asked with concern.
Li Muyun sighed: "What else, the old man Sangao has been for many years, and he didn't listen to it!" ”
Li Li's expression was gloomy, and when she thought of the seriously ill old Li Yuan, her mood suddenly became much heavier.
……
Half a year later, Li Yuan died of a serious illness, but the old man walked happily, and he went directly to the stomach with a jar of old wine, and drunk himself to death.
In the blink of an eye, a few years later, news came from Chang'an that the crown prince Chengqian had plotted a rebellion and had been deposed as a concubine.
A few years later, Goguryeo was unable to repay the huge debts owed to the Tang Dynasty, and was attacked by Li Shimin's army, and only lasted less than half a year, and the entire country became a dependency of the Tang Dynasty.
Four years later, Li Shimin died of a headache, and the crown prince Li Zhi ascended the throne as the emperor, and then recruited Li Muyun to enter Beijing, but was rejected again, and the eunuch sent to deliver the decree only brought back a letter, the content was extremely simple, only three words: the whole book is over!
