Li Gang and Gonggong Chen came to the door of Emperor Gaozong's study together, Gonggong Chen went in first to report, and Li Gang stood outside waiting. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

When Gonggong Chen walked into the study, Emperor Gaozong saw Gonggong Chen coming back, and asked with some differences: "Why did you come back soon?" ”

"The emperor atoned for his sins, the emperor atonement," Chen Gonggong knelt on the ground, kowtowed and begged, and told him about meeting the prime minister at the gate of the commune.

"Why is the prime minister here late?" Emperor Gaozong muttered in his mouth, thought for a while and said, "Come in." ”

Prime Minister Li Gang entered the study and kowtowed to the emperor, Emperor Gaozong hurriedly walked out from behind the desk, picked up the prime minister, and said with concern: "Prime minister, it's important to recuperate!" If you have something to do, you can send someone to pass the word, so why bother to run it yourself? ”

"Your Majesty," Li Gang helped the emperor, reluctantly stood up, shook his body and said: "Although the old minister is recuperating at home, his mind is all in the court, and now there is a big thing in the court, Lao Chen came rashly, and hoped that the emperor would atone for his sins." ”

As soon as Emperor Gaozong heard this, he thought of Song Anping's matter, and suddenly his face was ugly, and he sat down behind the desk again, and said gloomily: "The prime minister came here to intercede for Song Anping?" ”

"The minister is not here for Song Anping's affairs, the minister is here for the emperor's country," Li Gang stood reluctantly, his body trembled slightly, but the expectation was still so gentle and continued: "I hope the emperor can understand Lao Chen's hard work." ”

"Oh," Gaozong groaned disapprovingly, and said with a gloomy face, "What does the prime minister have to say, even if it is?" ”

"The old minister heard that the emperor wanted to establish a queen but was opposed by some courtiers," Li Gang coughed lightly twice, and continued: "The old minister thinks that there were Jin people who had been around early in the past, so there was a chance to establish a queen, but now Marshal Yue has blocked the attack of the Jin people, and now is the time to establish a queen." ”

"It's still the prime minister's thoughtfulness!" Emperor Gaozong received the support of the prime minister, there was a trace of joy on his face, he looked up at the prime minister's pale face, and felt a little unbearable, so he said: "Prime minister, sit down and talk first." ”

After Li Gang thanked the emperor for his kindness, with the support of Gonggong Chen, he found a chair to sit down and said: "The old minister heard that the emperor wants to make Xiangfei Niangniang the queen, and the old minister also thinks that Xiangfei Niangniang is virtuous and virtuous, and she is the best choice for the queen!" ”

Hearing this, Emperor Gaozong's heart was very happy, he knew that with the support of the prime minister, then the matter of the future would be completed, and at this time, Taibao Zhang Bangchang came to ask to see the emperor.

With the permission of the emperor, as soon as Zhang Bangchang walked into the study, he knelt on the ground and cried.

"The emperor wants to be the master of the old ministers!" Zhang Bangchang kowtowed and said: "Your Majesty, I am a little unwell today, recuperating at home, the emperor takes pity on the old minister, so he asked Concubine Xiang to visit the minister, but Song Anping, a thief, actually used the excuse of seeing a doctor to tease Concubine Xiang, and hoped that the emperor would make the decision for the old minister!" ”

Seeing this, Emperor Gaozong couldn't bear it, so he opened his mouth to comfort: "Aiqing is flat, as for the grievances you said, I will definitely make decisions for you." ”

As soon as Emperor Gaozong's words fell, Gao Wenyuan, the secretary of the Criminal Department, asked to be summoned outside the door,

After Gao Wenyuan got the emperor's permission, he walked into the study, and while asking the emperor to press it, he saw Prime Minister Li Gang and was obviously stunned for a moment.

"Your Majesty, Song Anping's case has been interrogated," Gao Wenyuan handed over Song Anping's confession to Emperor Gaozong, and said: "This is Song Anping's confession, and I ask the emperor to decide." ”

At this time, Emperor Gaozong was on the rise, he glanced at the confession, and his face gradually became solemn, "Song Anping beheaded, and the other Song Mansion personnel were assigned to the frontier." ”

As soon as he heard such a verdict, Li Gang gasped, stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I just heard Song Anping flirting with Concubine Xiang, right?" ”

"Hmm," Emperor Gaozong groaned, unwilling to talk about this matter, and casually handed the confession to Li Gang.

"Alas..."Li Gang finished reading the confession, handed it back to the emperor, and said with a long sigh: "It seems that the matter in the future will have to be delayed!" ”

When Emperor Gaozong heard this, he asked a little uncertainly: "Prime Minister, how do you say this?" ”

"Your Majesty, don't you want to make Concubine Xiang the queen?" Li Gang sat on the chair, stroked his beard, and continued to analyze: "It's unfortunate, Song Anping's case came out today, once this case is made public, won't it damage Concubine Xiang's innocence?" If Concubine Lixiang is the queen at that time, I am afraid that there will be objections from all over the country! ”

Li Gang's words hit the weakness of Gaozong and Zhang Bangchang at once, Emperor Gaozong looked at Zhang Bangchang with embarrassment, Zhang Bangchang lowered his head and thought for a while and said: "Your Majesty, we will not disclose Song Anping's crimes, and it will be okay to execute him secretly." ”

"By all means, Your Majesty, Song Anping is a minister of the DPRK and China, if we execute Song Anping for no reason, then how will the ministers of the DPRK and China feel?" Li Gang snatched the words before the emperor could speak, and continued: "What's more, Song Anping's mentor, Marshal Yue Feiyue, is fighting on the front line, if we kill his protΓ©gΓ© here without any reason, then will the soldiers on the front line be cold!" ”

"Hmph," Zhang Bangchang interrupted Li Gang's words, and said angrily: "What if the soldiers are cold, do they still dare to rebel?" ”

As soon as this statement came out of Emperor Gaozong's heart, he didn't care about whether the soldiers were cold or not, but the word rebellion really frightened him, so after thinking for a while, he said: "I must execute Song Anping, and it is a justifiable execution, there can be no dissent, and it can't hurt Concubine Xiang's reputation." ”

Emperor Gaozong threw out a difficult question, and the entire study fell into silence, and after a while, Gao Wenyuan, the secretary of the Criminal Department, first broke the silence.

"Your Majesty," Gao Wenyuan looked back at Li Gang and said to the emperor: "Since the prime minister has raised the seriousness of this problem, then I think the prime minister must have some way to solve this problem." ”

"What does the prime minister think!" The emperor looked at Li Gang and asked lukewarmly.

"Your Majesty, it's not difficult to come up with a way to get the best of both worlds," Li Gang continued: "As long as the emperor can trust the old minister and hand over this case to Lao Chen to deal with, the old minister will definitely handle it properly." ”

Hearing that Zhang Bangchang wanted to say something, Emperor Gaozong waved his hand to interrupt Zhang Bangchang, looked at Li Gang and thought for a moment, stood up and said solemnly: "Since the old prime minister is so worried about the country, I will hand over all the matters of Song Anping's case to you to deal with, I hope Aiqing will not disappoint me." ”

"Emperor Xie Longen," Li Gang hurriedly got up and thanked him: "Minister, you will not fail in your mission." ”
