Xu Wenhan's advice is indeed very thoughtful, not only the reasons are explained in detail, but also the corresponding countermeasures proposed are also very thorough and concrete, which is impeccable. For each admonition, the emperor praised one and allowed one.

Wang Yunong was a well-educated Confucian, and he had been acting on the emperor's side for decades. Just when Chen Wenyuan and King Fu interjected, several holy decrees had already been written without adding a few words.

Xu Wenhan was originally in a calm mood, and after entering the court as an official, he has never quarreled with others. The emperor is right, time is pressing, he does not need to scruple about paying attention to obscurity, nor does he need to be modest and courteous: "Third, it is to deal with several main criminals of the prince's party before they are put on trial." ”

"First of all, Zhao Tianyang, the former general of the Imperial Guard, resisted Tianwei and tried in vain to rebel and cause chaos, and he was already ambushed. The time is approaching the early dynasty, and now the corpse is still hanging above the gate tower of the palace, such a bloody tragedy is inevitably shocking, so that the emperor's benevolence and virtue are misunderstood, and there is also the solemnity and peace of the imperial city. Someone must be dispatched to collect the body as soon as possible and clean the blood stains from the gatehouse. ”

"Shocking?" The emperor interrupted with a few dry laughs: "A traitor like Zhao Tianyang who doesn't know death, I originally wanted to let him expose his corpse on the palace gatehouse, so that the civil and military officials, many court guards and forbidden soldiers could take a few more looks, it would only be good for them." If there is no stability, where will benevolence and harmony come from? What's the use of whitewashing the peace in vain? I don't care about these nonsense, don't let that stinky skin stain my place, it's real. Anyway, that guy has the same clan as me, otherwise, he will definitely be whipped and abandoned in the city! ”

"Also, maybe the three of you all have a similar opinion to Wen Han, thinking that Zhao Tianyang is rebellious and causing trouble, but Zhi'er disagrees with Er and the others. Zhi'er decided that the guy was the first evil who hijacked the prince to rebel, so he immediately shot him with an arrow. This matter is a matter of opinion, and I just said it casually. Don't talk about it today, let's discuss it another day. ”

Turning his head to King Fu, he smiled sympathetically and said, "The matter of collecting the corpse, let's work hard for the second brother!" The death of the person is gone, and I am not so small that I can't even let go of the dead. I left a whole corpse for Zhao Tianyang. You dragged him out of the city and buried him in a random mass grave. The confiscation of family property, the seizure of the mansion, and the arrest of his family members in prison are all left to you. ”

"That traitor is still my distant cousin uncle, I can't let the royal clan be too chilled. Second brother, you are the only royal prince of my generation. It would be better for you to do so. You must explain the heinous sin of the traitor, and you must also appease the emotions of the clan appropriately. I have been brothers with you for decades, and I know that you have always cared about national affairs and are bent on sharing my worries. Your talent is clear, so I don't need me to teach you how to do it, right? ”

The emperor said that he cared about the emotions of the clan. But it was clearly an opportunity to kill the chicken to show the monkey, and for King Fu, it was tantamount to a blatant warning. Everyone couldn't help but get goosebumps when they heard this, not to mention King Fu, who blushed and bowed his head in response: "Brother obeys the order." ”

At the same time, everyone was muttering in their hearts: Didn't you just let us interrupt? Say that casually? Who the believes it?

The emperor's "casual remarks" are very interesting. Yang Zhi had already thought of something, and the other four people were reminded by the emperor, of course, they also thought of it immediately. They all looked at Yang Zhi together, and did not hide the admiration in their eyes.

Wang Yunong had previously extended the security situation around Daxia to the situation in the government and the opposition, and only then did he shyly answer on the need for "verification." And Yang Zhi directly labeled Zhao Tianyang as "holding the prince hostage and plotting rebellion". The dead man could not open his mouth to plead, and since he became the "chief evil", the prince became an "accomplice". One master at a time, it is a world of difference!

This young man, who is not more than a weak crown, seems to be ruthless and has no taboos, but in fact, he is in a clear state of mind and far-reaching. Decisively framing Zhao Tianyang to death is really a supreme merit of great mercy and compassion!

In this way, although the prince's crime is unforgivable, it is excusable, whether to kill or release. The emperor then had plenty of room to maneuver. What has to be admired is that if Zhao Tianyang is designated as the first evil of rebellion, the emperor is destined to not be able to kill him widely: Zhao Tianyang is already too dead to die, and if he is sentenced to be in the street according to the laws of Great Xia. Not only did the emperor betray the name of cruelty and tyranny, but it also had no practical significance. If it is said that the nine clans of Zhulian, Zhao Tianyang is originally a relative of the royal family, is it possible that the emperor will kill the royal family surnamed Zhao, including his old man himself? But the whole family can't run away no matter what, it's a pity that Zhao Tianyang has this black pot on his back, and the family will inevitably die too unjustly! In front of the super fig leaf of the emperor's "everything for Great Xia". What is the value of a few dozen lives? Putting everything else aside, it's better than destroying your own son!

Yang Zhi could only smile silently in return. He didn't think about it so much at that time, he only knew that this matter would definitely not be good, and the emperor had to give himself and the people of the world a reasonable explanation. The reason why he brazenly shot Zhao Tianyang was to try to avoid Wei Su being put on the "throne" of rebellion. Now that the emperor needs a scapegoat, Wei Feiyang, the only son of Wei Su, has 100,000 heavy troops in his hands to defend Jinling, which is thousands of miles away, and Wei Su has made great contributions to the country in resisting the Turks for many years, and is quite influential in the military, which makes the emperor jealous. The emperor's sentence of "casually said" means that Wei Su's poor old life is preserved.

"So the prince's case has yet to be tried." Xu Wenhan smiled faintly and said on the original topic: "Secondly, since the founding of the country, the laws of Great Xia have been good, and the court has strict laws. The prince's status is still there, and if he is arrested and imprisoned together with his henchmen, it will lose the prestige of the imperial court, so it is best to imprison him in the prince's mansion in the East Palace. Wei Su, Li Sanhou and other rebellious backbone criminals need to be immediately arrested and detained in the prison of the Criminal Department awaiting trial. The confiscation of family property and the seizure of the mansion can be suspended, and the servants of his family can order the Yin of Chang'an Mansion to send capable personnel to strictly restrain them, and it is not too late to deal with them after the trial. ”

Wei Su clearly has a son who commands the army, and there are military forces who have a reverent and sympathetic attitude towards him, and behind the three marquis of the Li family is supported by the wealthy old scholar chaebol forces in Jincheng and Guanzhong. Although Xu Wenhan did not say it explicitly, the emperor knew in his heart that if it was uprooted overnight, I am afraid that there would be more headaches in the future. He nodded slowly and said, "It should be so." ”

Wang Yunong interjected: "Your Majesty, what Wen Han just said, there are still two details that need to be paid attention to. First, in order to prevent the backbone of the prince's party from committing suicide in anger and fear, or from plotting to rob the prison by whimsical people, or from falling into the grave by people with ill intentions, the prince should be imprisoned alone and guarded by the internal guards selected by the strict side. The concubines, attendants, horses, chamberlains, and maidservants of the former East Palace were all driven to the courtyard for temporary imprisonment. Although Wei Su, Li Sanhou and others were arrested and sent to the prison of the Criminal Department, the prison officials of the original Criminal Department were not used, and Wang Wenguang selected and sent foreign guards to guard them. ”

"Second, the daily life of the prince, Wei Su, the three marquis of the Li family and others during this period needs to be taken care of by a special person, and the meals must be taken care of by a special person, and recorded in detail for future reference."

Wang Yunong's added words were very thorough. The center of power is not a turbulent undercurrent for a moment, and there will be no lack of conspirators with different minds above the sanctimonious court. The so-called wall fell down and everyone pushed it, and there were many people who wished that the prince and Wei Su would immediately finish their lives. In case someone secretly hacks in prison, even if it is not killed by the emperor, it is also killed by the emperor!

The emperor said: "It makes sense, I am accurate. Wen Han, do you have anything else to play? ”

Xu Wenhan said: "Weichen still has one last recital. Fourth, it is the constitution of today's emperor's early dynasty. Although the emperor is in good spirits after the dragon body is healed, he did not sleep all night yesterday, and he is inevitably tired and tired. Weichen thought that the court should stop all the deliberations this morning, and the emperor only needed to do two things to go back to the palace to rest. ”

"First, today is the first early dynasty of the emperor in the twenty-sixth year of Wucheng, and it is also the first early dynasty after the emperor's triumphant expedition. Second, the emperor issued a clear decree to the world, announcing that the Southern Tang Dynasty had been included in the territory of Great Xia, and all the meritorious soldiers who conquered the Tang Dynasty would be rewarded with grace, so as to bless the subjects of the world on the occasion of the New Year. ”

The emperor smiled bitterly and said, "I listen to you." I can't wait to sleep for three days and three nights right now, and I can't do it today, and I don't want to do anything else. I'm not iron-clad, I'm also a young man, even if there are big things, I have to wait for me to breathe a sigh of relief. Oh, Wen Yuan, you are still in charge of the position of Captain from today onwards. When I figure it out, I'll let you go back and enjoy your old age. ”

"Tomorrow is the Lantern Festival again, and it just so happens that several of you are here today, so I won't issue another summons. Early tomorrow morning, you will be waiting outside the palace gate at the beginning of the hour, accompany me to the temple to worship incense, and then take a walk and take a look at the street with me. ”

Speaking of which, it is nothing more than covering up the ears and stealing the bell to whitewash the peace and divert attention, all in order to stabilize people's hearts. Yang Zhi couldn't help but secretly complain: Even if I accompany you to the Taimiao Temple to worship incense, why do I have to accompany you to go shopping? People know that your precious son has just rebelled, and at this time, don't forget to play a hand of "having fun with the people", will the people eat your set?

The emperor resolutely stood up and said, "Ma Cheng, beat the drum and ring the bell!" Summoning hundreds of officials to the early dynasty! ”

After Ma Cheng complied with the order, he smiled and said: "Your Majesty, Yan Fang has been waiting outside the imperial study for a long time, saying that Pei Xianzhong, the former attendant of the East Palace, insisted that the prince was bewitched by him, and he was willing to take responsibility for the prince, and Yan Fang must be acting for Chen Zuo." ”

The emperor snorted disdainfully: "Pei Xianzhong? At this time, I think of abandoning the pawn to protect the car? Is he worthy of it? He will not let himself plead guilty, and I will not spare him! You go and tell Yan Fang, I don't have time to listen to Pei Xianzhong's! ”

Just wanted to step out of the door, but suddenly called Ma Cheng again: "Wait!" ”

Not only Pei Xianzhong, but even everyone never expected that the emperor would specially cook a jaw-dropping and surprising dish for that unlucky guy. I saw the emperor sneer: "This waiter is quite loyal to that rebel!" Now I admire faithfulness the most, and since he was so willing to sacrifice for the rebellious son, he has fulfilled him today. Ma Cheng, you go in person, and immediately take him to the Inner Court Mansion to cleanse himself and castrate! Let's just say that I miss him for his loyalty, and reward him for being a personal servant for the rest of his life!
