The rain is still falling, but it's much lighter. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

On this morning, when Li Shimin discussed a few issues with the ministers, Zhang Liang suddenly stood up and said: "Holy Lord, under the heavy rain, many people's houses in the capital have collapsed, and even people have died. ”

As soon as Zhang Liang opened his mouth, Wei Zheng suddenly stood up and said: "Holy Lord, the minister wants to impeach the Ministry of Works, Miao Feng, these things were all in his responsibility at the beginning, and now this kind of thing has appeared, which shows how unfavorable he was at that time." ”

Wei Zheng opened his mouth and saw who bites whom, although sometimes he also accounts for more interests, but more often no one is afraid.

As soon as Wei Zheng opened his mouth like this, Li Tai, the king of Wei next to him, couldn't help but smile slightly at the corner of his mouth, if Wei Zheng got involved in this matter, then the crown prince Li Chengqian was afraid that he would not even have a chance to retreat with his whole body.

Li Shimin heard that the people's houses were collapsing again, his expression tightened, he looked at the Ministry of Industry Shangshu Miaofeng, and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Before Miao Feng could speak, a speech official suddenly stood up and said: "Holy Lord, the minister knows a little, the person who built the house for the people at that time was not my Tang Dynasty craftsman at all, but the Ministry of Industry hired some people from the people's houses. ”

In Datang, many occupations are naturalized to be continued from generation to generation, such as military registration, such as music registration, work registration, etc., craftsmen are clearly stipulated, and if the imperial court generally wants to build, it is to select people from here.

But the person who built the house for the people at that time was not a craftsman from the Tang Dynasty, what was going on?

Li Shimin set his eyes on Miao Feng, and he asked Miao Feng to give a reasonable explanation.

Miao Feng trembled, and then suddenly pounced and knelt down: "The saint spares his life, the minister knows the crime, and the minister knows the crime." ”

"Say, what's the matter, why don't you use the people instead of the craftsmen?"

Miao Feng glanced at the prince Li Chengqian, the prince Li Chengqian stood aside and looked light, Miao Feng sighed lightly, and said: "Back to the saint, the minister is also confused for a while, and wants to be greedy for the silver taels allocated by the imperial court, but the craftsman is too expensive to use, so the minister spent money to hire some people from the people, thinking that it is just to build a house for the people, and nothing should happen." ”

Miao Feng took all the blame for it, and Li Tai, the king of Wei, was a little surprised, but he soon understood that the crown prince Li Chengqian finally moved eastward, and he let Miao Feng take everything in order to make himself have nothing to do with this matter.

King Li Tai of Wei frowned, secretly thinking that things were so simple.

After Miao Feng finished speaking, Li Shimin was very angry and was about to reprimand Miao Feng, when an official suddenly stood up again: "Master Miao, if this official is not mistaken, you were in charge of the construction of Lingyan Pavilion at that time, and it was completed in the shortest possible time, could it be that in order to speed up the progress of the construction of Lingyan Pavilion, you found someone to replace those craftsmen to build houses for the people?" ”

After this person said it, the ministers in the court suddenly had a feeling of sudden realization, but many of them were heroes of Lingyan Pavilion, if Miao Feng was really like this, they would not be able to accuse, so many people remained silent.

Everyone is not crazy about this matter with the crown prince Li Chengqian, it can be said that this situation is beyond the expectations of Li Tai, the king of Wei, but he is not in a hurry, since Miao Feng has already taken care of the matter, it means that the prince Li Chengqian has already made countermeasures, and it seems unlikely that the prince Li Chengqian will be planted with him.

And the reason why he asked people to mention this matter was just to let the ministers and his father Li Shimin understand that this matter was actually related to the crown prince Li Chengqian.

As long as this goal is achieved, Li Tai, the king of Wei, is already very satisfied.

Sure enough, although the ministers did not accuse the crown prince Li Chengqian, many people, including Li Shimin, looked at Li Chengqian, and they already knew at this time that this matter had nothing to do with Li Chengqian.

But at this time, Miao Feng said again: "At that time, the household department was responsible for the construction of Lingyan Pavilion and the people at the same time, and the minister was confused at the time, thinking that if Lingyan Pavilion was built well, the minister would definitely be able to make meritorious contributions, so he sent some more craftsmen to Lingyan Pavilion. ”

Miao Feng knew that this was difficult to bypass, so he didn't mean to deny it, but he still pulled all the blame on himself, and people couldn't see many flaws.

After all, when he was faced with such a choice, it was normal for him to choose to build the Lingyan Pavilion first, if it wasn't for the heavy rain that destroyed the house again, he could have enjoyed the fruits of his choice at that time.

Li Shimin looked at Miao Feng and sighed in his heart, this matter has nothing to do with his son, but Li Chengqian is the prince after all, if he loses the support of the people because of this matter, it is really a bit serious.

Even if he is an emperor, he has made a lot of mistakes, so the mistakes made by the crown prince Li Chengqian, he wanted to help him cover up the past, and moreover, at that time, Li Chengqian at most let more craftsmen be in charge of Lingyan Pavilion, and most of the things that were built by ordinary people were done by Miao Feng.

Therefore, Li Shimin can forgive the crown prince Li Chengqian, but he can't forgive Miao Feng because of a murder.

"Come here, Miao Feng is hungry for profit, regardless of the life and death of the people, he only cares about filling his own pockets, dragging him into prison, and beheading him after the autumn."

After Li Shimin said this, everyone immediately felt very relieved, but Miao Feng surprisingly did not beg for mercy, he just glanced at the crown prince Li Chengqian, with a trace of indescribable things in his eyes, as if he was thirsty and expected.

At the end of the early dynasty, the rain was heavy again, and the prince Li Chengqian's expression was very relaxed, it was a very serious matter, but it was solved, he returned to the East Palace very happily, and then told Du He about the matter of the early dynasty.

Du He nodded after listening, and then asked, "His Royal Highness the Prince, what should Miao Feng's family do?" ”

The corners of the crown prince Li Chengqian's eyes tightened slightly, and a murderous aura burst out: "Find a way to make Miao Feng commit suicide in the prison, as for what to do after he commits suicide, this prince thinks you should understand clearly, right?" ”

When the crown prince Li Chengqian said this, Du He's heart shook slightly, and then he nodded, he naturally understood what the prince Li Chengqian meant, if Miao Feng was dead, then his family would lose the value of being used, and if they had no value of use, then there would be no need to exist.

For the crown prince Li Chengqian, the grass must be cut to the roots.

And just after the crown prince Li Chengqian discussed these things with Du He, a person suddenly came to the palace in a hurry, it was a eunuch, and after this eunuch came to the East Palace, he read out Li Shimin's dictation.

"There is a decree in the Holy Order, the Ministry of Works' squire Miao Feng has no virtue and lost his heart, causing the people's houses to collapse and hurting their lives, the prince, as the prince, should be sympathetic to the people, appease the people, and order the prince to be responsible for the rebuilding of the houses of the people in the capital, as well as the care of the injured people, and the compensation of the dead people."
