Chapter 206: This person should be beheaded!
The next day, Hanyuan Palace.
When the sun was rising, a group of civil and military ministers came to the palace gate early, and when the palace gate was wide open, the civil and military divisions entered.
The Tang Dynasty has a court meeting every three days, which can be regarded as relatively frequent, and the ministers of civil and military affairs are also used to getting up early every three days, but the atmosphere of today's court meeting is a little strange.
And the source of the weirdness is none other than Li Yifu, who was supposed to be in the palace to wait for trial.
Li Zhongshu was dressed in a purple robe, his face was gloomy, his face was without his signature smile, and there was a smell of people not entering.
Holding the wat board in his hand, he stood quietly at the forefront of Wenchen, making everyone a little puzzled and a little frightened at the same time, could it be that Li Zhongshu's case has been concluded?
Is the Li Yifu who calls for wind and rain back?
And those who know the inside story, such as Xu Jingzong, Liu Renliang and others, are calm, although the news of the death of the old lady of the Li family has not spread in a large area, but these people know, so after today, I am afraid that for a long time, Li Yifu will withdraw from the political center of the Tang Dynasty......
The most special thing is the crown prince Li Hong, who has a toothache from the moment he came in, and he glanced at the end of the courtiers from time to time, and he didn't know what he was looking at.
As everyone knows, Li Hong's heart has already exploded at this moment.
This unknown Wang Yifang really took his warning as a deaf ear!
and also gave a good lecture to the people he sent, which really made Li Hong helpless.
"Go to court!"
With Wu Liangfu's slightly sharp voice, today's court meeting officially began.
However, some people with a heart found that although the emperor and queen on the throne looked no different from usual, there was a coldness in their expressions.
After several prime ministers of the political hall stepped forward to report the backlog of several government affairs in the past few days, the emperor drew a copy from the music in front of him and handed it out.
"Xuan!"
With Wu Liangfu's unchanging voice for thousands of years, he slowly read out the chapter. The faces of the people present changed, and they all turned their eyes to a middle-aged man in imperial history.
"The Imperial Minister's History, the King's Righteous Performance!"
As soon as Wu Liangfu's voice fell, the hall was quiet, and the atmosphere became a little depressed inexplicably.
"Wang Yifang! Who instructed you in this movement? ”
Immediately after, the emperor's angry voice sounded.
And in the words, he didn't ask about Wang Yifang's impeachment at all. Just say that he was instructed by someone!
"Back to Your Majesty, as a royal history, the minister has the responsibility of picketing the courtiers, no one instructed this twist and turn, the Chinese book ordered Li Yifu to kill the Wupin Temple without permission, and regarded the national law as nothing, and dismissed the official according to the law! Your Majesty, please be wise! ”
It's a pity that this Wang Yifang is also a hard bone, and he doesn't pay attention to the emperor's anger at all.
The words calmly pushed back, which immediately made Li Zhi choke.
"Hmph. I have given you the responsibility of supervision, is it that you are so indistinguishable from right and wrong that you contradict the king? ”
After a while, Li Zhi eased up and said coldly.
"Your Majesty, the minister's impeachment of lawlessness is within its bounds, so how can you contradict the king? What's more, it is now when Chun Yu's case is pending. The two witnesses of the crime both died violently, making the case unsolved. Among them, Your Majesty must not ignore it, so disrupting the law of the country, acting recklessly, if the minister sits idly by, it is the real indistinguishable right from wrong! ”
Wang Yifang always speaks unhurriedly. But it can always make the popularity half dead.
But what he said was reasonable, which made it difficult for Li Zhi to refute.
After a pause, Li Zhi suppressed his anger and asked lightly at Li Yifu.
"Li Zhongshu, Wang Aiqing accused you of killing Wupin Temple without permission. How can you explain this? ”
A smile appeared on Li Yifu's face, and he arched his hand to Li Zhi and said.
"Your Majesty, the ministers are conscientious, self-denying, and never dare to do anything illegal, but I don't know why Wang Yushi is so framed by the ministers? What's more, although the minister is not sensitive, he knows that the conviction of the Dali Temple is also based on evidence, and now Wang Yushi only guesses, how can he do it accurately? ”
After saying that, he turned to Wang Yifang and smiled sarcastically.
"Hmph, clever words!"
Unexpectedly, Wang Yifang didn't care about Li Yifu's rebuttal at all, and said disdainfully.
"Li Zhongshu, let me ask you, who has delayed the trial time of this case? Who is it, who is rampant, wantonly accumulating wealth, and selling official positions? Imperial historian Zhou Yunyuan has a very personal relationship with you, he saw Bi Zhengyi on the night, Bi Zhengyi died violently, do you dare to say that this matter was not instructed by you? The facts of Chun Yu's case have long been clear, but now it is inexplicably tyrannical in prison, do you dare to say that this matter has nothing to do with you? ”
Wang Yifang's voice became louder and louder, and his eyes looked directly into the eyes of Li Yifu, not afraid at all, and even more pressing step by step.
"This ......"
A trace of panic flashed on Li Yifu's face, and he was speechless for a while.
"Li Zhongshu, there is a god three feet above your head! Aren't you afraid that those whom you have killed will come to you at night and ask for your life? ”
Wang Yifang's voice was like spring thunder on his tongue, which suddenly made Li Yifu break out in a cold sweat.
"Enough!"
At this moment, Li Zhi's angry voice sounded.
"Wang Yifang, as the imperial history, slandered the minister, his words were not inferior, and he contradicted the ...... of the king"
"Father!"
Before Li Zhi's words were finished, Li Hong interrupted him.
All of a sudden, all the eyes in the hall focused on Li Hong's body, which made him suddenly a little nervous.
Of course, Li Hong knew that this was not a good time to speak out, but who would have thought that this Wang Yifang would be so able to pull hatred!
In such a short period of time, Li Zhi was angered like this.
If Li Hong doesn't say anything again, I'm afraid that Wang Yifang will be thrown to Lingnan by the angry emperor in the next moment to be accompanied by snakes, insects, rats and ants.
When the time comes, everything will be too late, and the so-called king will not joke!
Li Zhi said that there is no possibility of retracting what he said on such an occasion!
It's just that in this way, Li Zhi's anger was all transferred to him Li Hong, and this level was not so easy......
"What do you have to say?"
Li Zhi's voice suddenly became very calm, but Li Hong knew that this was a sign that Li Zhi was very angry.
Taking a deep breath, Li Hong said in a deep voice.
"Father, the son thinks that Wang Yifang is really a great crime, as a royal history, he does not want to repay the grace of heaven, and has repeatedly impeached indiscriminately, and last time he had no chance to impeach Liu Fu, the queen mother was magnanimous and did not pursue it! This time, he was so bold that he caught the wind and caught the shadows, framed Li Zhongshu, contradicted his father, and had no courtiers, which is really the disaster of my Tang Dynasty!
If this goes on for a long time, the courtiers will be restless! This person impeached the minister in vain, if he did not get rid of it for a day, the court would be restless for a day, and the son of the minister implored his father to use thunderous means to remove Wang Yifang from his position as the imperial historian, and directly put him in the prison of the Criminal Department, and Ling Chi was executed to correct the court! ”
As soon as Li Hong's words fell, there was silence in the hall.
Everyone seemed to be stuck in their throats, and their eyes looking at Li Hong were a little more indescribable.
Even Li Zhi on the throne fell silent! (To be continued.) )
