Chapter 364: Changes in the East Palace
Wang Jundu is dead, and people like him will never be caught with their hands tied up, and they are willing to be prisoners.
When the night north led the people to follow the killer's footsteps, they had no time to transfer. Even if you can transfer, you can't go at all.
Today's Qizhou is a well-defended iron barrel, and the streets and alleys are full of patrolling soldiers, and it is impossible to escape. So when Yebei came, all he saw was a corpse that had taken poison, and the gangster Wang Jundu, who had been in trouble for many years, died under his own hands.
When Xie Yi saw the situation, he only sighed faintly, and after waiting for someone to confirm Wang Jundu's identity, he turned around and left.
Rebellion is all punished, this result is no better, and it can be regarded as an explanation to Li Shimin, and this trip to Qizhou can be regarded as a success. In addition, before leaving Qizhou, all these traitors will be eliminated, and Qizhou will be a bright and prosperous person, and the old father-in-law Xu Xiaode's assassination history can also be smoother, which can be regarded as a little filial piety!
As soon as this matter was delayed, there were only a few days left in the fifteenth year of Zhenguan, and Xie Yi immediately returned to Chang'an with Xu Hui non-stop, hoping to return home before the first day.
……
For the imperial court, it was undoubtedly a good thing to be able to put the rebellion to the top before the end of the year, and the officials from the prime minister to the six ministries were very happy about it. But Emperor Li Shimin's mood was somewhat heavy, after all, it was his son who rebelled, and now he was escorted back to Chang'an for trial, and his face as a father was really gloomy.
And what should he do with his son when he returns? Rebellion according to the law is certain to death, and it cannot be relentless. But after all, it is a biological father and son, and blood is thicker than water, even if Li You was not very favored in the past, but blood and family affection are facts that cannot be changed.
Can you really do it yourself? Thinking of the words that Concubine Yin said before she died, Li Shimin felt very uncomfortable......
At this time, something more disturbing appeared, and the crown prince Li Chengqian in the East Palace became more and more unscrupulous. The relationship with several Taifu is not harmonious.
It is said that in addition to feasting in the East Palace, the crown prince Li Chengqian even played Hu Opera, and the well-dressed nobles did not do it, and the Guangsha Palace did not live. He actually learned to be a grassland shepherd, set up a tent in the garden of the East Palace, and played the role of the leader of the grassland tribe.
In fact, this is not a big deal, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince occasionally plays some role-playing and experiences the life of the leader of the grassland. But in the eyes of the princes, it was a great event, and the prince did not do his job, but he pretended to be the leader of the grassland. Isn't this self-depravity?
Such an act is really detrimental to the dignity of the royal family, the majesty of the crown prince, and even more damaging to the imagination of the Chinese people.
Kong Yingda, Zhang Xuansu and others spoke righteously and fiercely exhorted for this, completely trying to pull His Royal Highness the Crown Prince back to the right path and admit their mistakes.
If Li Chengqian relents, this matter may be over. But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who was not in a very good mood, was obviously not very happy, and his attitude was not positive at all. So after going back and forth, the relationship between the two Taifu rose from exhortation to argument and then to quarrel.
Maybe Kong Yingda and Zhang Xuansu are too square and old-fashioned, or maybe it is influenced by the direct admonition atmosphere caused by the ministers led by Wei Zheng in the court. The two Taifu had no intention of backing down at all. Determined that he had a reason, he argued with reason, and his words and attitudes were extremely intense, completely forgetting the way of education. And even who is in front of you.
In other words, it may not be a big deal if it is the former Second Majesty Li Er, even if he is not happy in his heart. But for the sake of Mingjun's imagination, it is necessary to make some gestures and listen to advice. But in front of him is not the original Li Shimin, but the prince Li Chengqian, who is not as open-minded as him, and the situation is naturally different.
When the exhortation was too intense, Kong Yingda and Zhang Xuansu couldn't help but forget the etiquette of the monarch and the minister, the words were too intense, and the tone was much higher, and even foaming at the mouth. All this fell into Li Chengqian's eyes, and the taste changed, is it too much for you to shout at me like this?
Therefore, not only did the admonition have no effect, but it caused strong dissatisfaction and rebellion among His Royal Highness the Prince, and in the end, he was even a little angry. The three of them were arguing more and more loudly in the East Palace, Li Chengqian originally wanted to leave with his sleeves up, but Kong Yingda didn't seem to want His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to leave, so he had to argue clearly and make His Royal Highness the Crown Prince realize his mistake, so he stepped forward to stop him.
Li Chengqian was annoyed, he was walking a little fast, but when Kong Yingda stopped him, he subconsciously pushed him out. When people are angry and angry, their behavior often loses proportion, and Li Chengqian's push force is also relatively large, and the direct result is that Kong Yingda, the priest of the country, fell to the ground hard, and his head was bleeding.
There were many surprises in the matter, but when it has developed to this point, it means that it is completely different, and the nature of the problem is more serious.
The prince had a conflict with the prince in the East Palace because of the issue of advice, and as a result, his head was broken and bleeding, and it was such a sentence that spread throughout Chang'an, and then it was extended that the prince beat the teacher.
The ancients paid attention to the prince of heaven and earth, and he was the object of kneeling and bowing, and the status of the teacher was the same as that of his parents. Hitting the teacher is to deceive the teacher and destroy the ancestors, which is a great act of unfilial piety, and it is really a bit ...... for the prince to make such a move
This kind of behavior is really despicable, and it can even rise to the point of the prince's immorality.
Maybe it was just a misunderstanding, and the prince may have been unintentional, at least it can be explained in this way. But afterwards, Li Chengqian was angry and did not help the old and frail Kong Yingda, but went directly with his sleeves.
This move seems to have confirmed the charge of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince angrily pushing and beating the master, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince does not respect the teacher, and has no courtesy and benevolence! The Tang Dynasty is a big country, a state of etiquette, how can you be so formless, so rude and immoral?
If the monarch has no benevolence, the country will not be a country, so inside and outside Chang'an, the Tang Dynasty suddenly paid close attention to this matter. Coupled with the fact that some people deliberately added fuel to the fire, the image of the crown prince Li Chengqian, who was not very good, suddenly plummeted, was despised by others, and also aroused huge doubts.
The crown prince is the prince of the country, where the country is located, and the prince's virtue is greatly questioned, what this means is self-evident. Thinking about it a little more seriously, this is a big thing that will shake the East Palace.
The battle between the princes in Chang'an City was already fierce, and the rebellion of Li You, the king of Qi, was to some extent a fuse, which led to the intensification of this fight.
At this juncture, such a major event happened in the East Palace, which undoubtedly gave Li Shimin a headache. (To be continued.) )
