Chapter 404: Li Er's Decision

Two days later.

All kinds of rumors are flying in Chang'an City, and the prince's rebellion is already in an uproar, but the prince kidnaps the concubine of the protector, and this concubine is still pregnant, and she has been imprisoned in the prince's mansion for several months, living a dark life, and the news instantly detonates the people of the city.

How unfair is it that the woman of the hero of the rebellion was kidnapped by the prince and imprisoned in the prince's mansion?

The common people didn't know that the prince was sentenced to death, so they were all angry, and spontaneously went to the street and moved closer to the imperial city, no one spoke, but their eyes were cold, and an uneasy atmosphere permeated the entire Chang'an City.

The forbidden army was already very fond of Qin Huaidao, and after learning about the merits of the military department, he proposed to reward the king of the county, but he was temporarily detained by the saint, and he was a little chilled in his heart.

Silence, invisible silence!

An eerie force is brewing.

The news soon spread to the palace, Li Er, who was reviewing the recital, heard the news and his face changed greatly, he has always attached importance to public opinion, and also cleared the harm of public opinion, Zeng got up, pushed the recital all over the ground, stared at the door with sharp eyes, and breathed rapidly, like a lion who would go crazy at any time.

Li Er, who was killed in countless storms, of course understood that it was not simple behind this, and he thought of Qin Huaidao for the first time, but after thinking about it, it was too obvious and unwise, could it be Qin Huaidao's enemies who provoked and calculated behind his back, so that he could get rid of Qin Huaidao and cause greater turmoil and turmoil?

Gradually, Li Er calmed down, his thinking became clearer and more agile, thinking that with Qin Huaidao's talent, it was impossible to use such low-level means, just follow the vine, and waste some time to find the source of the rumors, which is self-defeating, and nine times out of ten there are others behind the calculations.

However, now that the matter is exposed to the world, it is difficult to hide it, the matter of the prince cannot be delayed, and an explanation must be given to the people, otherwise the court will be turbulent and the future will be endless.

Wrong......

Someone wants to get rid of the prince!

Thinking of this, Li Ertong shrank suddenly, thinking of Li Tai, the king of Wei, only he has enough motivation and strength, this is a thief's heart is not dead, provoking public opinion to force the palace, one to kill the prince's family, two to get rid of his sworn enemy Qin Huaidao, three to hit his own prestige, three birds with one stone, good calculation.

The more he thought about it, the more Li Er felt that it made sense.

"Someone!" The roar shook the hall.

Wang De hurriedly ran in.

"Decree, the crown prince Li Chengqian rebelled, the evidence is true, the crime is unforgivable, it humiliates the royal identity, violates the laws of the imperial court, disappoints the high expectations of the people, demotes him to the common people, and escorts him to the monument ......" Li Er wanted to say beheading, but after all, it was his own flesh and blood, and he felt a pain in his heart, and continued: "Poisoned wine is given to death, and the crown princess imprisons the concubine of the protector of the country, and is punished according to the crime, in order to thank the world." ”

"Old slave...... Obey! Wang De hesitated, wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything, seeing Li Er's expression darkened after he finished speaking, and he instantly aged a little, and his heart ached.

"Pass the decree, let Fang Xiang, Wei Guogong, and Wei Zheng be beheaded, so that Cheng Bites Jin to calm down the people's anger, there must be no mistake." After speaking, Li Er sat down on the dragon collapse, his eyes looked at the portrait hanging on the wall in front of him, and a line of tears slipped down.

Tiger poison does not eat children, but for the sake of the country and the imperial power, it has to be done.

At this moment, Li Er hated the person behind the calculation.

Without waiting for Wang De to walk out, Li Er said coldly: "Spread the decree, the prince rebelled, Li Tai, the king of Wei, did not act, dismissed the governor of Xiangzhou, and no longer led the military of the seven states of Xiangzhou, Wei, Li, Wei, Wei, Xing, and Bei, and demoted the king of Shunyang County and placed it in Yunxiang County, Junzhou. ”

"Old slave, command."

Wang De didn't know what happened to Li Er today, and he didn't expect that Li Tai, the king of Wei, had suffered an unwarranted disaster, so he hurriedly agreed, worried that there were other orders and did not go immediately, and after waiting for a while, he saw Li Er looking at the portrait fixedly and silently, with a sad and indignant expression, and after making sure that there would be no other will, he stepped back lightly, came to the door and told the guards to guard, not to go in and disturb, and hurriedly ran to deliver the decree.

Fang Xuanling was handling official business in the yafang, and was a little surprised when he received the edict, but he quickly stabilized his mind and immediately drafted the holy decree and sealed, Wang De also had an identity, the eunuch with the palm seal, took out the jade seal and stamped it, and a legal holy decree was completed, and Wang De rushed back to restore his life.

Prison beheading is not a trivial matter, Fang Xuanling hurriedly sent someone to find Li Jing, Wei Zheng and Cheng Biting Jin, and circulated the holy decree to everyone, and the three of them were also secretly surprised by Li Er's courage and means.

Not long after, the crown prince Li Chengqian and the crown princess were escorted out of the prison, and under the escort of the forbidden army to the monument, Fang Xuanling read out the holy decree on the spot, and the onlookers heard the death, and the dissatisfaction in their hearts dissipated.

The crown prince Li Chengqian and the crown princess fell in front of the monument and made amends to the soldiers who died in the battle.

Dark clouds cover the sun, and cold winds sweep by, like the return of a heroic spirit.

Li Chengqian, the end!

……

Afterwards.

Fang Xuanling, Li Jing and Wei Zhenghur

Hurriedly came to the Ganlu Hall to pay the decree, and saw Li Er with a gloomy face, he suddenly became much older, after all, he was a comrade-in-arms who had come together in the eventful years, and he had deep feelings, and he could understand Li Er's mood, the three of them exchanged glances, and Fang Xuanling stepped forward and saluted: "Holy Lord!" ”

"Can you walk peacefully?"

"The prince is truly repentant, the people are considerate, and he walks peacefully."

"That's good, bury it with the gift of the Duke of Guo, posthumously present the Governor of Jingzhou and the King of Hengshan County, and be buried in Zhaoling, Xuanling, this matter will be handled by you." Li Er admonished in a painful voice.

It is said that if you are degraded to a common person, you can't be buried with the rites of the country, but the death of a person is great, Fang Xuanling didn't want to worry about Li Er because of this matter, causing turmoil in the court, so he agreed.

"In addition, Princess Wencheng will do it according to her will, so as not to chill the heart of the protector of the country, so let's go down." Li Er waved his hand as he spoke, his face gloomy and terrifying.

Princess Wencheng's wedding date was decreed, but it was ordered to be suspended by Li Er, the suspension is not canceled, but it is delayed, no one knows how long it will be delayed, and no one dares to ask, and now Li Er has brought it up again, which means that the suspension is canceled, and it can continue to be promoted according to the holy decree.

This is a compromise with Qin Huaidao, and it is also a gesture of goodwill.

However, there was still no will regarding Qin Huaidao's reward, and everyone couldn't guess Li Er's intentions, and they knew that now was not the time to ask, so they left one after another.

In addition to the main hall, when he walked to a place where there was no one, Fang Xuanling suddenly whispered: "Let's go to Qinjiazhuang to talk after we get off duty in the evening?" ”

Li Jing and Wei Zheng nodded knowingly, and the three of them stopped communicating and went to their own offices.

Not far away.

Seeing the three of them leaving, Li Zhi hesitated, and hurriedly came to the Ganlu Hall to ask for a meeting.

"Father, mourning!" Li Zhi bowed and saluted, his face sad.

"What are you coming from?" Li Er looked at Li Zhi with an indifferent expression.

"Back to my father, my brother's ministers are also very distressed, worried about my father, come and see, I don't know what I can do to share my father's worries?" Li Zhi looked sincere, thinking that even the crown prince Li Chengqian was given death, and then thinking of his ethereal future, his mood was a little complicated.

Whether it's empathy, or the sadness of the rabbit's death and fox's death, Li Zhi is really sad at this moment.

This sadness fell in Li Er's eyes, Li Er's mood improved inexplicably, and said: "Zhi'er, the floods in Jiangnan are getting more and more serious, you can take a trip." ”

"Son's Command!" Li Zhi secretly rejoices, this is a great opportunity to brush up on qualifications and experience, and he has done a great job, but if he can't do it well? Thinking of this, Li Zhi hesitated a little, and said stubbornly: "Father, the son needs some help, I don't know if it's okay?" ”

"Who do you want to help?" Li Er asked rhetorically.

"The eldest grandson Chong is a cousin, his own person, and talented, but he can go along, and he also needs a general to ensure the safety along the way, and it is all up to his father to decide."

Li Errao glanced at Li Zhi meaningfully, is this to pull the eldest grandson Wuji into his camp? However, Li Er did not resist this kind of behavior, but appreciated it very much, he didn't know how to manage his own forces, and he was not good at attracting talents, so he couldn't support it, as for the talent of Changsun Chong, Li Er didn't take it seriously.

However, the eldest grandson Wuji must be on the side of the successor, and it is time to lay out, so he said: "Accurate, let Cheng Chuliang and Wei Chi Baoqi go with you." ”

"Thank you, Father!"

Li Zhi was overjoyed, Cheng Yanjin and Wei Chigong were Li Er's henchmen, and letting the two sons follow was undoubtedly a signal that their opportunity had come.
