Chapter 356: Causing Public Outrage
Tang Jimin and Lu Qi's opinions are all about helping each other, neither falling into the ground, nor helping Li Yuanba to speak, not seeking credit, but seeking no mistakes.
Eldest Sun Wuji lowered his head and thought about it, but suddenly his eyes rolled and said, "You guys have a point, but it's really a pity to let me give up such a good opportunity." In this case, we will do our best to let our subordinates spread the word about this matter, and the rest will be left to fate. This thing...... Jimin, you go and do it! ”
"Yes, sir!"
Tang Jimin's path is the widest, and he also knows who in the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military affairs has a close relationship with which merchants in the Tang Dynasty, and it is most appropriate to hand over this task of spreading news to Tang Jimin.
Tang Jimin naturally understood this truth, and immediately stood up and arched his hand towards the eldest grandson Wuji, and left the banquet.
Looking at Tang Jimin's back, the eldest grandson Wuji put his hands behind his back, his eyes flashed with excitement, and said: "Li Yuanba, Li Yuanba, this time it is the heavens that help me, if you want to blame it, blame you for why your head is hot to move those businessmen!" ”
After that, the eldest grandson Wuji turned to Lu Qi and said: "Lu Qi, you send someone to Dali Temple and the mansions of the adults of the three provinces to inquire about the news, it is estimated that they have already quarreled at this moment!" ”
Although Lu Qi is said to be a household servant, he is a person who is good at drilling camps, in this Chang'an City, in addition to a few princes and princes' mansions, there are his eyes and ears in the mansions of other princes and ministers, and no one is more suitable than him for listening to news.
So after listening to the words of the eldest grandson Wuji, Lu Qi bowed his head and said: "Although it is the same whether to go or not, because the relatives of those big businessmen will definitely not let go of this opportunity, after all, once this case is opened, the harm to the businessmen is too great!" Well, let's go check it out. ”
A middle-aged man who had been sitting at the end and had never spoken spoke: "My lord." This Li Yuanba is killing himself, if the adults are willing to add a fire......"
"Hou Hai, I know that you are complaining about your master, but this revenge cannot be achieved overnight, you have to wait for the opportunity!"
The eldest grandson Wuji looked at the middle-aged man, and said with a straight face: "Besides, this incident is quite strange, if this Li Yuanba did it on purpose, then ......"
The middle-aged man named Hou Hai was silent for a long time, and said, "In this way, it is a small matter!" My lord. My master still needs to take care of it, so the little one will retire first! ”
With that, the middle-aged man turned and left.
The eldest grandson Wuji looked at the back of the middle-aged man and was silent.
……
In Chang'an City, a group of soldiers dressed in bright silver armor frantically patted their horses and ran through the streets of Chang'an City. They were the soldiers of the Right Guard, and Li Chengqian was sent by Li Yuanba to take over the task of the Shenwu Guard and continue to blockade the shops in Chang'an City.
In fact. Not only did the Chang'an Mansion and the guards from all walks of life send troops out, but even some of the guards in the palace and the palace also moved.
Of course, the reason why everyone got the news so quickly. But it's all Lu Qi's handiwork, if it weren't for him, I'm afraid the news wouldn't have spread so quickly.
The Imperial Palace, the Imperial Palace.
"陛xià. The concubines heard from the young slaves that they all went to the fourth brother's new palace, and they didn't know if they had returned! ”
Empress Changsun wore a pale pink pleated skirt. Gently kneading Li Shimin's shoulder, he said.
Li Shimin smiled and said, "These children rarely have the opportunity to go out to play, and I have also heard that there are a lot of novelties in Yuanba's new palace, since the little ones have gone to him, they must not want to come back!" ”
"Chengqian and Su'er are okay, but Gao Yang and Qinghe, two girls play crazy with a few boys all day long, isn't it a little too pampered!"
Although Empress Changsun was a little worried in her tone, she also had a faint sense of schadenfreude when she talked about the back: "If these two girls are released into the wild, then their future husbands will be unlucky!" ”
Li Shimin patted Empress Changsun's jade hand lightly, and said: "For Qinghe, I am not worried, after all, Qinghe is still satisfied with the Cheng family's young descendant." It's Gao Yang, I'm afraid that I and Xuanling's in-laws can't do it! ”
Empress Eldest Sun also smiled bitterly, this matter has Li Yuanba's sideways intervention, naturally it is difficult to do it.
"Your Majesty, Wangshan Bocheng Boyong...... Liangshan Hou Li Boyuan, Shanping Gong Li Changshan...... Ask for a meeting outside the temple! ”
Just when the couple was relatively speechless, Liu Sanshui walked in with low eyebrows and said respectfully to Li Yuanba.
"What are they coming for?" Li Shimin was stunned for a moment, he thought about it and said to Liu Sanshui: "Tell them to go to the Liangyi Hall to wait for me!" ”
"No!"
Liu Sanshui responded and hurriedly walked towards the outside of the Lizheng Palace.
"Your Majesty, what's wrong with these princes and ministers? Why did you come to the palace together as if you had discussed it? ”
Empress Changsun was very puzzled, was it during the court meeting recently, why did these princes and ministers come in a hurry?
Li Shimin had some guesses, after all, when he knew that the Shenhuang Wei Xuanzi was about to rebel, he had already investigated all the people or families related to the shops under the name of the Xuanzihao.
As far as the dukes, marquis, and uncles reported by Liu Sanshui are all related to the shops under the names of these Xuanzi brands.
"It's not a big deal, just wait for me to go over and see!"
Li Shimin shook his head, he didn't want Empress Changsun to worry about these things, so he didn't sue Empress Changsun.
……
As soon as he entered the Liangyi Palace, Li Shimin didn't even have time to sit down, and a large group of dukes, marquis, and uncles began to cry and cry bitterly.
It is nothing more than suing Li Yuanba for innocently mobilizing the army, sealing the shops opened by their relatives, and killing many shopkeepers and subordinates, they want to turn the sky upside down!
Immediately afterwards, the recital of the imperial history platform was also handed in at this time, and many imperial envoys impeached Li Yuanba, the king of martial arts, and Li Tai, the king of Yue, and asked Li Yuanba to uphold justice and discuss Jia Yi's notarization.
Since Li Yuanba woke up, there is no good impression left by these imperial histories and businessmen, at this time, the trees are falling and scattered, the walls are falling and everyone is pushing, you Li Yuanba has made a big mistake, no one can help you this time.
Subsequently, the three provinces and six ministries also began to hand over excerpts one after another, of course, these guys were kept in the dark, they were all ministers, and they could still distinguish between right and wrong.
In the Liangyi Palace, a discussion revolved around the incident of Shenwuwei's ban on shops in Chang'an City.
The attitude of these princes, marquis, and uncles was the most resolute, and among them, Li Changshan, the prince of Shanping, was elected to represent these classes and nobles.
Speaking of Li Changshan, the prince of this mountain, it is not a simple role, when Li Yuan raised troops against Sui, this Li Changshan was a great helper, almost using his family wealth to purchase weapons and horses to support Li Yuan, and later saved Li Yuan's life on the battlefield.
After Li Yuan ascended the throne and became the emperor, because he was grateful for Li Changshan's contribution to the Tang Dynasty and his own kindness, he gave this Li Changshan an official position as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and was also named the Duke of Changshan County, with 1,200 households, and the descendants of the hereditary descendants of the food and the knighthood, and the eternal prosperity.
Of course, this old guy is also a bit of a politician. To cure the sense of smell, Li Shimin launched the Xuanwumen Incident to ascend the throne, and reorganized the entire Tang Dynasty, three provinces, six ministries and state officials, which Li Changshan took the initiative to retire, and took the initiative to persuade many colleagues to give up their official positions and return to their hometowns for retirement.
Li Shimin was very satisfied with Li Changshan's style of affairs, so he raised the titles of these old ministers who took the initiative to retire, and these old guys all started to be rich lords at home.
Therefore, this Li Changshan can be said to be the head of these old ministers, and it can be said that he will take the lead in today's affairs, which can also be said to be a matter of course.
Li Changshan looked like he was about to be in the middle of a sixtieth birthday, his long gray hair was folded up and hung upright, and his ruddy and smooth forehead did not have a trace of wrinkles, smooth as a baby.
Brushing his half-foot-long goatee under his chin, Li Changshan said: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Nawu actually banned nearly half of the shops in Chang'an City for no reason in just two hours at dusk yesterday, and also connived at the slaughter of the shopkeepers and the small people in the shops. His Majesty, calling the army without permission is no different from rebellion, and now he is killing people in public, and his behavior is simply eye-catching to the world! ”
Speaking of this, Li Changshan deliberately paused for a moment, and then continued: "For An Yunei, please also ask Your Majesty to immediately issue an order to arrest the martial king Li Yuanba, so as to calm the hearts of the people!" ”
"The ministers thought it should be so."
Li Changshan's voice landed, and the princes and ministers who came with him did not make any moves, but those imperial historians and speech officials immediately seconded the proposal.
However, these officials are not the same as Li Changshan, and the officials are only thinking that Li Changshan is reasonable, not that there is any entanglement of interests between them.
After all, except for the Shenwuwei and the soldiers of the guards who moved with it, no one knew in what name Li Yuanba banned the shops, captured and even killed those shopkeepers and the little guys.
If these officials know that Li Yuanba's action is to arrest the rebellious party, I am afraid that the first to jump out to support Li Yuanba are these imperial historians.
Compared with the excitement of the crowd, Wei Zheng, who has always been known as the head of the officials, was silent, and he didn't know what this guy was thinking.
In the face of the angry ministers, Li Yuanba didn't bother to deal with them, but looked at Wei Zheng and said in a flat tone: "Xuan Cheng, what is your opinion?" ”
In this case, if the opinions of the courtiers are relatively unanimous, then the saint will either agree with the opinions of the people or reject them with one vote.
And as it is today, the saint directly asked the people who had not spoken, and it was clear that he was not optimistic about the opinions of these fellows. (To be continued......)
