Wei Yan smiled innocently, a little shy, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty and General Hou are comrades-in-arms, this special friendship of life and death, the minister doesn't know what to say, his mouth is too stupid." ”

"Comrade-in-arms?!" His Majesty Li Er sighed: "This title is appropriate, comrades-in-arms who have followed me for so many years, comrades-in-arms!" ”

His Majesty Li Er didn't continue, his eyes were wet, and he silently began to cry. Wei Yan silently accompanied him, hesitating and not knowing how to speak to comfort. This is not the first time he has seen His Majesty Li Er cry, for the sake of his subordinates, for the sake of his son, Wei Yan has seen the tears of His Majesty Li Er several times. Because of the identity of His Majesty Li Er, some people may think that tears are also a means, but as far as Wei Yan is concerned, he prefers to think that it is the love of love, and he can't help it, which can be regarded as a leader's personality charm, rather than the so-called means and stratagems. If all the actions of the emperor and the leader were the means, if they could be calculated, then there would not be so many failed emperors in the world. The emperor is also a human being, and he also has all the seven emotions and six desires of people, and he will also be sad and sad, and cry when he can't help himself, even if he has killed his brother and imprisoned his father in disguise, Li Shimin is just a person.

Wei Yan silently accompanied him, and quietly motioned to Xiao Huang's father-in-law to bring a basin of hot water, seeing that His Majesty Li Er was almost crying, he wrung a hot towel over, and said warmly: "Your Majesty, please use a hot towel." Spring is windy, easy to irritate the eyes, whether it is the wind blowing or the sand into the eyes, cover it with a hot towel, the eyes will be more comfortable, Your Majesty, please use. ”

His Majesty Li Er stared at a pair of red eyes, glanced at Wei Yan, didn't say anything, took the towel, and began to wipe his eyes. Wei Yan just smiled and didn't say much. When His Majesty Li Er handed over the towel, he handed over a washed hot towel again. After going back and forth like this a few times, His Majesty Li Er seemed to control his emotions, and walked down the steps taken by Wei Yan: "The wind is really too strong this spring. Blowing my eyes red, it's hateful. ”

Wei Yan continued without changing his face: "That's, it's really hateful." For the sake of His Majesty's dragon body, for the sake of my Datang's long-term future, is it better to take a break? Your Majesty, this is the advice of the minister as a doctor, please think carefully. ”

His Majesty Li Er glanced at Wei Yan again, with a slight appreciation in his eyes, and said, "Okay." You are my imperial doctor, and you have said that following the doctor's instructions is the most important thing to do as a patient, and I will listen to you this time and rest well. ”

Wei Yan grinned: "Your Majesty is wise. ”

His Majesty Li Er groaned for a moment and said, "You can retreat first." ”

"Yes. Your Majesty, Weichen retired. ”

After saluting, he left the palace and went home. The first thing he did when he got home was to pull Xie Jiu and start talking about today's court meeting, and the two of them got together and began to sum up. Xie Jiu suddenly realized: "Timing! ”

Wei Yan was stunned for a moment, then understood, clapped his palms, and said, "You mean that this is the timing of what my father-in-law said?" ”

Xie Jiu nodded. Said firmly: "Because of Wei Zheng's letter, the imperial court set off a storm of clean government, and Hou Junji fell into the handle at this time, isn't it a good time?" ”

Wei Yan pondered, "It's indeed a good time. It's just a coincidence, isn't it? I remember that in history, Hou Junji did have corruption and connived at his subordinates to loot in the first battle of Gaochang Kingdom, but later I don't know why, Emperor Taizong did not punish the crime, but just transferred Ya back to the capital to serve in the sixth department. Is it ......?"

Wei Yan couldn't laugh or cry, and he didn't know what to count. Xie Jiu smiled. Praise the puppy and pet Wei Yan's head. smiled: "It seems that you are really a lucky star, and you will be lucky in trouble." ”

Wei Yan: "Ma'am." It was the Rui Beast who died and became auspicious, and I was a human, not a divine beast. ”

Xie Jiu smiled: "The effect is almost the same, men don't worry too much about some small things." ”

Is this a trifle? Really? It's about to be changed to ancestors, is it still a trivial matter? Whoa! Wei Yan wiped his face, pounced on it, and decided to have a good discussion with Xie Jiu on this issue.

Hou Junji was imprisoned, the contradiction between Wei Yan and him is almost known to everyone, and there is no need to hide anything, Wei Yan is very single, he gets up early in the morning and goes to the morning court, always paying attention to the development and changes of things.

As soon as Hou Junji was imprisoned for two days, Cen Wenwen handed a note to His Majesty Li Er, saying that the meritorious generals should not be humiliated, quoting the "Book of Zhou" as saying, "Remember people's merits, forget people's mistakes, and should be a monarch." "The name of the place persuaded His Majesty Li Er, citing the deeds of many famous generals in the past dynasties, in short, it is a sentence, the emperor should remember the merits of the heroes, forget the sins of the heroes and generals, and punish them lightly.

Wei Yan wanted to greet Cen Wenwen's father when he heard it, and asked Ya if he had taught his son well, and he actually said such a bastard thing. Wei Zheng was secretly scolding and scolding, and Wei Zheng, who had been quietly listening to Cen Wen's sparse performance, said: "Your Majesty, the minister does not agree with Lord Cen's statement. ”

Wei Yan immediately looked at Wei Zheng with a blank eye, hoping that he could say a great truth, refute Cen Wenwen, and ask His Majesty Li Er to punish Hou Junji severely, so as not to jump out and trouble him again. His Majesty Li Er said, "Wei Zheng, what do you have to say?" Go ahead. ”

Wei Zheng said: "Your Majesty, the minister opposes Lord Cen's sparse performance. To administer the army, we rely on military law, orders and prohibitions, and if there is a law, we must follow and act according to the law, so that we can achieve the heart of the world and deter the three armies. I have Tang law and military law, Hou Junji, as a general of the dynasty, went to the Marshal of Gaochang Country, exercising the mission and power given by His Majesty, representing the monarchy and national prestige of my Tang Dynasty, every word and deed, every move, all represent my Datang. Gaochang is far away in the Western Regions, and the countries of the Western Regions have not established diplomatic relations with our Tang Dynasty outside of Gaochang, and the Gaochang Rebellion has the reason why the Turkic remnants are troubled, and it is necessary to establish the wisdom and benevolence of His Majesty of the Tang Dynasty, and the time when the grace and power are equally important, if Hou Junji can do a good job this time, it can achieve the effect of surrendering the army without a fight, and give me time for the Tang Dynasty to clean up Tubo and Goguryeo first, and then turn around to deal with the Turkic remnants. Hou Junji's trip not only failed to achieve results, but even greatly ruined the image of my Datang land, which is also a crime. ”

Wei Yan was dumbfounded when he heard this, this was the first time he had seen Wei Zheng Fawei, it turned out that he could say so. Wei Zheng paused, and then said: "The second crime is greed for ink and war profits. I have only been in the world for decades, and it is the time for construction. His Majesty once adopted the advice of his ministers to be prepared for danger in times of peace, set an example, be thrifty and self-denying, and Hou Jun set himself as a courtier. If you don't go up and down, you will go against Your Majesty and should be punished. The third sin is that the ministers make the monarchy and have ill intentions, and their actions can be punished. ”

As soon as Wei Zheng's "third sin" came out, there was an uproar in the Taiji Palace, and His Majesty Li Er also changed his face and said to Wei Zheng: "Wei Zheng is cautious. ”

Wei Zheng hurriedly responded. Without changing the color on his face, he said: "Your Majesty, it is not that the minister has wronged Lord Hou, but that there is conclusive evidence." As a courtier, Hou Junji appointed local officials in Gaochang State without authorization, and the ministers exercised the monarchy. The evidence is conclusive, please see it clearly. ”

Wei Zheng's words fell, and there was silence in the Taiji Hall, and the needles could be heard. Wei Yan looked at Wei Zheng with admiration in his eyes, powerful, too powerful, corruption can be involved in the intention of rebellion. The ability to buckle the hat, Wei Zheng said second, no one dares to admit the first, and the loss girl also has a simple and honest face. So insidious. However, as soon as Wei Zheng's "ill-intentioned" charge was thrown out, for a while, no one dared to refute Hou Junji. This crime is too big, in all dynasties and dynasties, no matter how wise and martial the emperor is, what he hates most is rebellion. Let's see what His Majesty Li Er did.

His Majesty Li Er has not yet spoken. Cen Wenwen then said, "Your Majesty." Wei Zheng said that the minister could not agree. ”

His Majesty Li Er said calmly: "Cen Wenwen." You said. ”

Cen Wenwen said: "Gaochang is far away from my Tang Dynasty, and it is an exaggeration to say that there are thousands of mountains and rivers, and it takes a long time to come and go. Hou Junji's division is not a local, after the fight, stability is the first priority, whether it is out of the situation or for the interests of my Tang Dynasty, it is the first priority to quickly arrange the candidates for the governance of Gaochang State, and the appointment of officials without authorization, the ministers think that it is a last resort, Wei Zheng's words are exaggerated, and the wind and words are the same way, it really should not be. ”

As soon as Cen Wenwen's words came out, Wei Zheng was not happy, and the two of them actually had a war of words. The two old men, both of whom are full of poetry and books, quarrel with Si Swen, quote scriptures, and are also confused, and secretly sigh that there is no culture, and they can't even understand people's quarrels, pitiful.

"Okay, okay, the court, you two quarrel like this, what kind of system do you have." His Majesty Li Er seemed a little impatient and interrupted them. Wei Zheng and Cen Wenwen glanced at each other, answered in unison, and retreated to their respective positions. His Majesty Li Er said: "Hou Junji overstepped his authority to appoint officials of Gao Changguo, and I know it in my heart. Junji has followed me for many years, and I know what kind of person he is. Similarly, Wei Zheng and Cen Wenwen also know the character of the two of you, so this matter will be stopped, and we will have to discuss it again. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The quarrel between the two ended. His Majesty Li Er pondered for a moment and said, "I think what Wei Zheng said is reasonable, and what Cen Wenwen said is also reasonable. Hou Junji has followed me for many years and made great contributions, and I have always rewarded and punished clearly. This time, Hou Junji should be punished for his guilt, and his merits should be rewarded, and his merits and demerits should be offset. ”

"Your Majesty is benevolent, righteous and wise, and the ministers are also fortunate."

Cen Wenwen was the first to answer. His Majesty Li Er touched his beard and chin and said earnestly: "The princes in the palace, most of them are heroes who fought with me from the battle of swords and guns, I remember your merits, and I will not forget the hard work and blood and sweat of the year, cherish this hard-won stability and prosperity with me, and build the future of the Tang Dynasty together with me." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Considering that it is a storm of clean government at this time, it is not appropriate to deal with it too leniently, the death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime cannot be escaped. Hou Junji's military power was cut, he was demoted three grades in a row, he was sealed with a false position, and he was suspended from the Ministry of Rites, which can be regarded as a disguised removal of armor and return to the field, and he no longer has real power.

Wei Yan is quite satisfied, with Hou Junji's status and merits, if he hadn't happened to be unlucky enough to encounter the clean government storm set off by Wei Zheng, he was afraid that he would still be able to serve as the secretary of the ministry and hold great power like in the previous history. Now that it has come to such an end, Wei Yan is satisfied.

After the court, Wei Yan was just about to leave the palace, and Xiao Huang's father-in-law was already waiting outside the Taiji Palace, beckoning to Wei Yan, and said with a smile: "Lord Wei, Your Majesty is invited." ”

Wei Yan followed Xiao Huang's father-in-law to the Lizheng Palace, and His Majesty Li Er had just changed into his court clothes, and when he saw Wei Yan coming, he said, "Sit down." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Wei Yan was not polite, and sat down. His Majesty Li Er said: "Your entanglement with Hou Junji is over here, and you are not allowed to mention it again in the future, you know?" ”

Wei Yan showed an aggrieved look and said, "Your Majesty, the minister has never been interested in dealing with Lord Hou, it seems that he has been aggressively planning with his ministers. ”

His Majesty Li Er glanced at Wei Yan and said, "Yes, you don't have to come forward to deal with Hou Junji, you have your father-in-law Qin Shubao, and Li Ji and others will stand out for you." ”

Wei Yan smirked, knowing that he couldn't hide it from His Majesty Li Er. His Majesty Li Er sighed: "I also know that for the sake of Cheng Qian, you have been wronged. ”

Wei Yan scratched his head and said: "Your Majesty, you and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince have all kinds of courtiers, like the minister, who is uneducated and resourceful, can only help one or two in these places, if you can share the worries between Your Majesty and His Royal Highness the Prince, the minister will be very happy and will not be wronged." ”

His Majesty Li Er glared at him with a smile and said, "Really? I will listen to the truth, not to these lies. ”

Wei Yan smiled and said: "To tell the truth, occasionally I will be a little aggrieved, but just like Your Majesty said, the minister not only has the support of his father-in-law and Uncle Li, but also His Majesty's care, Lord Hou is a fierce wolf, and in the face of the hedgehog who is well protected, I can't say anything!" ”

"Hedgehog? Well, that's true, interesting. His Majesty Li Er actually bowed his head to admit Wei Yan's words. Wei Yan secretly glanced at His Majesty Li Er, and saw that people seemed to be in a good mood, and he also smirked, he didn't want a lot of unrealistic things, he just wanted to live a peaceful life. I was in a hurry when I updated last night.,I accidentally made a mistake.,To hit the third and I don't know why it's magically played into the fourth change.,It's not that I want to deceive people.,It's really a mistake.,The chapter name has a way to be modified.,The evidence of the crime is**naked droplets left!
