When Li Ning'er saw Li Su, she told Li Shimin about calling her over.

She said depressedly: "Brother Liang Wang, I don't know any of the words on that painting, my father asked me, but I couldn't answer." I feel that my father may be suspicious of my identity as a Taoist aunt. ”

Li Su asked, "You mean you met Chu Suiliang at your father's place?" ”

Li Ning'er said: "Yes, it seems that the painting was given to his father." ”

"No, the officers and soldiers patrolling the city picked up this painting and handed it in step by step, and it should be handed over to the Armed Police Headquarters. How did Chu Suiliang know that the armed police had picked up this painting, could it be that he already knew that the armed police would pick up this painting? Li Su said.

Soon, he received news that Li Shimin, accompanied by Chu Suiliang, went to Beiye Court and met Ding Shenming and Yuan Tiangang.

Such a situation aroused Li Su's vigilance.

He called Yang Kang and explained that he went to find Li Xiaogong and others to raise their vigilance. Send Haitang back to find Hou Junji and ask him to go to the Armed Police Headquarters to investigate the "hanged ghost" incident.

After explaining these things, he suddenly remembered an important person - Li Zhi, the king of Changsha.

Soon, the person sent to find Li Zhi came back and told him bad news - Li Zhi was called away by Li Shimin.

It's going to be bad!

Li had a premonition that a storm was coming.

The next day, the early dynasty, the main hall of the Taiji Palace.

Wei Zheng said: "Your Majesty, regarding the case of refining fake pills, Zhongshu Province has drafted a handling plan, and I ask the emperor to show it. ”

Li Shimin said: "Let's talk about your handling opinions. ”

Wei Zheng said: "Ding Shenming and Yuan Tiangang pretended to be the disciples of Taishang Laojun, refined fake pills, deceived and poisoned the emperor, and committed the crime of bullying and killing the king.

Li Tai, the king of Wei, was in charge of managing alchemy matters, and he did not know anyone and had negligence, so he suggested that his title be lowered and he would go to the fief according to the new title.

Please let the emperor decide. ”

These were discussed in advance, and they had been approved by Li Shimin, and they were announced in the main hall, but they were just going through the motions.

Li Shimin said with a gloomy face: "There is evidence that there are discrepancies in the facts in the previous investigation of this case, so the handling is suspended."

Li Tai, the king of Wei, was at very little fault and was released. Ding Shenming and Yuan Tiangang are temporarily detained, and they will be disposed of after the trial of the case is completed.

I now announce that the case will be further heard, and Chu Suiliang will still be in charge. ”

After Li Shimin finished speaking, the ministers who knew the inside story were very disappointed with the disposition of the original trial result. The other ministers, seeing that Li Tai, the king of Wei, were treated like this, and they didn't feel good in their hearts, and the hall fell silent again.

Li Shimin's face was expressionless and announced his retirement from the dynasty.

East Palace.

It was normal for important ministers of the imperial court to come in and out, but at this time, it caused Li Shimin's unhappiness. He sensed that these people were clearly at odds with him, and they were probably discussing how to deal with him.

Li Shimin guessed correctly, Wei Zheng and the others were indeed discussing and taking countermeasures against Li Shimin's change of fortune today.

Wei Zheng said: "Your Highness, the minister heard yesterday that there was a strange incident in Chang'an City, saying that there was a hanging ghost, and there were rumors that someone had offended Taishang Laojun, and Taishang Laojun sent impermanence to warn. What do you think about this? ”

Li Su smiled: "It's pure." Let me ask you, if you don't know the truth, then Li Zhi and their Flying Immortals are more mysterious than what hanged ghosts? ”

Hou Junji said with a smile: "Even if the minister already knew the truth in advance, he was shocked when he saw the balloon in the sky." ”

Li Jing nodded and said, "Chen understands, what kind of trick is this such as flying birds." ”

Du He said: "That's all they have to do, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can play them to death if he makes anything at will." Back then, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince took us to put two kicks in the Tiele Department, and people thought it was thundering on a sunny day, haha. ”

Fang Xuanling pondered for a long time and said: "The reason why the emperor changed the hexagram must be the picture that fell from the so-called hanging ghost, that is, the words on something similar to the book of flying birds, and the emperor asked Ding Shenming and others to explain."

This matter is obvious, someone is colluding with Li Tai, the king of Wei, and others, taking advantage of the emperor's superstitious psychology, and trying to make trouble. ”

Fang Xuanling is good at planning, quick thinking and experience, he can see the essence of things at a glance.

Li Dan has been involved in political struggles for so many years, and his political sense is also very keen, he said: "I'm afraid this matter is not so simple, we used stratagem last time to expose the conspiracy of Li Tai and others!"

However, it also left a big flaw - our things are also fake, and they can't stand scrutiny, and the emperor is wise and martial, and he will probably see the flaw.

In this case, it will inevitably arouse his suspicion. ”

Li Dan's words were to the point, and this incident really aroused Li Shimin's suspicion.

As soon as Li Dan's words fell, Li Zhi, the king of Changsha, came, and he said in a panic: "Sixth brother, it's not good, the matter has been revealed." Randomly, he told what happened.

It turned out that yesterday Li Shimin called him and sternly asked him about the situation of flying immortals outside the sky, Li Zhi had been afraid of Li Shimin since he was a child, and in front of Li Shimin, he was stunned for a while, and then he honestly confessed.

Li Shimin was furious, and detained Li Zhi in the Taiji Hall on the spot, preventing her from coming to inform Li Su and others.

Li Zhi is now like a child who has done something wrong, he is very ashamed, he said, I'm sorry Sixth Brother, I didn't keep our secret. ”

This is a crime of deception! The ministers all have some worries,

Li Su patted Li Zhi on the shoulder and said with a smile: "It's not a big deal, we didn't want to deceive our father in the first place, and sooner or later we have to let him know about this matter."

Don't worry, haven't we already taken countermeasures? At the beginning, we filled out a memorandum with Empress Changsun, wasn't it just to prepare for today? ”

"That's right, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has thought thoughtfully, and the memo that I asked Lord Cen to write at the beginning can be used now," Ma Zhou said.

Li Zhi saw that everyone didn't blame themselves, and his mood was a lot better, and everyone was also relaxed.

Everyone discussed and decided to find an opportunity to have a showdown with Li Shimin and tell the truth thoroughly.

However, everyone wants to keep things simple.

What happened next was a surprise to everyone.

Li Shimin didn't give everyone a chance to explain at all, and in the following morning, Li Shimin announced several appointments.

Li Jing was so old that he took a back seat and served as an adviser to the General Staff. The post of chief of general staff was taken over by Li Ji, the governor of the Yinshan Prefecture.

Hou Junji was appointed as the deputy secretary of the order, and was removed from the post of secretary of the ministry, and the secretary of the ministry was replaced by the eldest grandson Wuji.

Chu Suiliang was promoted to the left waiter of the Criminal Department.

Li Ninger was unable to work full-time because she had given birth, and was dismissed from her post as deputy director of the State Administration of Taxation.

Li Tai was innocent and continued to participate in political affairs and direct the work of the household department. It is equivalent to giving him the right to be in charge of the household department.

Ding Shenming and Yuan Tiangang were sentenced to death by hanging and serving in prison.

The court was shocked - the sky has changed!
