It can be said that the chief judge of this trial is the most solemn since the founding of the Tang Dynasty.
Li Shimin was dressed in a black tassel suit, accompanied by the eunuch, and came to the main seat of Dali Temple, and the auxiliary seats sat on the side of Dali Temple, the servant of the Criminal Department, and the supervision of the imperial history.
Xu Ziling was also slowly escorted up by the soldiers.
Li Shimin did not interrogate Xu Ziling about the rebellion at the beginning, but first asked Xu Ziling about the matter in Hangzhou, and the investigation was clear.
After listening to this, Xu Ziling explained the things in Hanzhou one by one without hurry, and when he talked about Yu Longwei's behavior, Li Shimin's brows were obviously tightly wrinkled.
Zhang Lang had doubts about Li Shimin's behavior of not interrogating and plotting rebellion and interrogating the Hangzhou incident, and after hearing the behavior of the uncompetitive brigade commander at this moment, he couldn't wait to immediately tear up the brigade commander of Hangzhou Yulongwei.
He hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed: "The subordinate is guilty, the subordinate has not managed his subordinates well, and the selection of people is improper, please punish Your Majesty." ”
Li Shimin looked very kind, he smiled: "It's okay, it's been a long time, people's hearts will always swell, you are far away in Beijing, and it is normal that you can't control it." ”
Li Shimin's words were on the surface to comfort General Zhang Lang, but what he secretly meant was that even if you were in the center and your subordinates had problems, Yu Longwei's huge intelligence system didn't know the situation at all. It's just that Li Shimin didn't say it explicitly, and General Zhang Lang thought that Li Shimin was comforting himself.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your understanding." Zhang Lang bowed his head and felt wide, and unconsciously a cold sweat broke out on his back, he was obviously interrogating Xu Ziling today, how did he feel like he was interrogating himself.
"Since you have been mentioned, you personally investigated the rebellion of Xu Ziling, so that he can understand that I will never misjudge a good person, but I will never tolerate a rebel thief." Li Shimin looked at General Zhang Lang and said something in his words.
"This matter was discovered by the long history of my guard, can you please explain it?" Zhang Lang will say.
"If I'm not mistaken, it should be Yang He Yang Changshi recommended by General Zhang." Li Shimin seemed to remember something and asked.
"Exactly, Changshi is full of great talents, and he knows the subtleties, and it is some details he found that the subordinates will investigate, and they will know that this thief is so vicious." Zhang Lang pointed to Xu Ziling, who was kneeling on the ground, and inadvertently showed a triumphant smile.
"Indeed, Yang He is really condescending." Li Shimin didn't say anything about Xu Ziling, but was interrogating Yulong's internal guards.
Zhang Langjiang was in a hurry, why did Li Shimin keep talking here and there, but he didn't mention Xu Ziling even after saying half a salary.
"Your Majesty, look, do you want to invite Yang Changshi up and tell me the details of this anti-thief plot." Zhang Lang will try his best to pull the topic to Xu Ziling, and he is already sweating profusely at this moment.
"Well, bring Yang He here." Li Shimin said lightly.
Zhang Langjiang was finally relieved, and he talked to Li Shimin in general, and he felt that he could express the meaning of his words smoothly, which was already very good. The momentum on Li Shimin's body is like Mount Tai, he can't pass on his anger, this kind of momentum that has been in the top position for a long time may only be possessed by the supreme ruler of the Tang Empire, and he can have it, don't look at him is only in his thirties, but those eyes that seem to be perceptive to people's hearts seem to have lived for sixty years.
It didn't take long for Yang He to be slowly brought up, and he saluted Li Shimin respectfully, glancing at Li Shimin's familiar face in the afterglow, and when he admitted that he didn't pay attention, there was a trace of viciousness in his eyes.
How could he tell the Zhang family about the plan in his heart. All of this is his single-handedly arrangement, first control Zhang Erlang, and use his hatred of Xu to achieve his own goals, so Xiaolongwei all over the country began to have accidents constantly.
When the time was ripe, he deliberately chose Hangzhou City, and then a very big conflict broke out, so he transferred Xu Ziling over so that he could start arranging it on the side of Chang'an.
In fact, he knew that with his own small means, he couldn't bring down Xu Ziling at all, and this kind of lie could only deceive Zhang Erlang, but in Li Shimin's eyes, this trick was not credible at all.
He had studied the relationship between Xu Ziling and Li Shimin, and Li Shimin knew more about Xu Ziling than about himself, so he dared to rest assured that such a huge organization as Xiaolongwei would be handed over to him.
But none of this can stop his crazy plan to avenge his son, since Yang Wengan died, he has started to arrange, his target is not only Xu Ziling, but also Li Shimin.
The opportunity finally came, he used the crime of rebellion, and he was still Li Shimin's closest Xu Ziling to rebel, then he Li Shimin had to try the case in person, now Dali Temple has been controlled by all his dead soldiers, this side of the mutiny, as long as the news is blocked, all the guards in the Beijing division will be like blind people, at that time Li Shimin and Xu Ziling don't want to live.
"Yang He, Yang Changshi, tell me where you got the evidence of Xu Ziling's rebellion." Since Zhang Lang presented the evidence of Xu Ziling's rebellion, Li Shimin didn't ask a word, and immediately asked Yulongwei to take down Xu Ziling.
It wasn't until this moment that he asked, the meaning of which was self-evident, but Zhang Langjiang didn't come up with it.
"The python robe is in the north ya, and the weapon is in the Xu mansion." Yang Changshi is neither humble nor arrogant.
"He shouldn't be stupid enough to put the python robe in the yamen and wait for you to search for it." Li Shimin asked thoughtfully.
As soon as he said this, Zhang Lang suddenly opened the door, and Li Shimin was overturning the case for Xu Ziling. It's over, who's in whose trap in the end.
"This robe was found in an extremely secret place, and Xu Ziling controls the largest guard in the inner palace, and the soldiers under it are highly skilled and numerous, and the northern ya, which is close to Your Majesty's residence, is very reasonable." Yang Changshi analyzed, but there was no respect in his words like Zhang Langjiang, and his words did not carry a trace of emotion, as if this matter had nothing to do with him.
"Yes, yes, Yang Changshi's analysis is very reasonable." At this time, Zhang Lang could only stubbornly echo.
"Oh, that is, Zhang Lang will also know about this." Li Shimin asked.
"Back to Your Majesty, the ministers know." Zhang Lang will say.
