Chapter 538: The Heroic Monarch is a Capable Minister

Things are not surprising, Princess Honghua asked for help not only to ask Li Jingheng's family, but also to the royal family who had a little friendship back then.

Casting nets to fish, one counts as one, Princess Honghua has a scumbag physique.

So from the morning, the royal family members seemed to have entered a dungeon, some in a single row, some in a team, one by one into the palace to brush the boss.

Li Zhi summoned them one by one, and being able to talk to them calmly and separately all the time was really amazing.

However, the more he listened to what the clan relatives said, the clearer Li Zhi's thinking became.

There is a demon when things are unusual, and it is not an accident that the clan relatives entered the palace today, there must be someone behind the force.

"Who asked you to enter the palace to impeach Li Qinzai? Jing Heng, you tell me the truth. Li Zhi asked, staring into his eyes.

Li Jingheng hesitated for a long time before he said in a low voice: "The minister received a letter from Princess Honghua last night, and the letter included many charges against Li Qin, and the minister and Princess Honghua have benefited each other since childhood, and I really can't bear to refuse......"

Li Zhi nodded: "This morning, I also received a letter and a note, which are from the Tubo Prime Minister Lu Dongzan and Princess Honghua, and their statements in the letter and note are consistent with what you said today, and they are all impeaching Li Qinzai. ”

Saying that, Li Zhi suddenly smiled: "I don't know what Li Jingchu did in Liangzhou City, and the two countries of Tubo and Tuyuhun both complained to me about impeachment, and what Li Jingchu did must not be simple......"

Listening to Li Zhi's intimate tone, Li Jingheng felt more and more that his decision to enter the palace today was very unwise.

The Son of Heaven has no more favor for Li Qinzai, and he actually came to complain, which seems to be a bit boring for himself.

Seeing Li Jingheng's hesitant expression, Li Zhi said lightly: "Jingheng, you have been in Chang'an, what happened in Liangzhou City, thousands of miles away, what did Li Qinzai do, how did you know?" Just based on the words of Princess Honghua alone, she entered the palace to impeach Li Qinzai, don't you think it's too reckless? ”

Li Jingheng suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, lowered his head and said, "Your Majesty, the minister knows that he is wrong. Ministers should not only care about feelings and ignore the facts. ”

Li Zhi's tone was a little heavier, and he said: "You are indeed wrong, Li Qinzai is an envoy sent by me to mediate the war between the two countries, and everything he does in Liangzhou City is out of loyalty to the Tang Dynasty. ”

"We are thousands of miles away, so we can't help him, don't stab him in the back, won't this move make the loyal ministers feel cold?"

Li Jingheng became more and more cold sweat, and kept prostrating himself on the ground to plead guilty.

Li Zhi leaned forward slightly and said, "Do you know what Li Qinzai did in Liangzhou City?" ”

"I don't know."

Li Zhi took a book from his desk and said: "This is a note sent by Li Qinzai to me, he was assassinated by the Tubo faction on the way to Liangzhou, and this is the act of slaughtering the Tubo mission, which is to take revenge on the Tubo and establish the prestige of our country." ”

"Later, whether it was sending troops to loot Tuyuhun, whether it was teaching the Tubo army a lesson in Jishi Mountain, or fighting for tat with the envoys of the two countries, it was all for the sake of the Tang Dynasty, it can be said that everything Li Qinzai did was justified and deserved, and there was nothing wrong with it, and if I were him, I would do the same."

Saying that, Li Zhi smiled and said: "Li Qinzai has done this, in the battle between Tubo and Tuyuhun, my Datang has intervened strongly, and has established a strong authority between the two countries, and now Tubo and Tuyuhun have to be afraid of the intervention of the Tang Dynasty, and they are even more in awe and jealous of Li Qinzai, the envoy of the Tang Dynasty." ”

"That's why the envoys of the two countries joined together to impeach Li Qinzai, and asked me to change the envoy's plea."

"Haha, the more this is the case, the more necessary it is for Li Qinzai's existence, I just want him to stand on his feet and seek a land for eternity for the Tang Dynasty, who is this envoy of the Son of Heaven?"

Staring at Li Jingheng's sweaty face, Li Zhi said slowly: "Li Qinzai is in the border city and he is desperate for me and the Tang Dynasty to be born and die, how can Jing Heng endure to be constrained behind his back, and make the relatives painful and the enemies happy?" ”

"Go back, I will not only tell you these words today, but also to those clan relatives, I hope you are the last person to enter the palace to impeach Li Qinzai."

"Princess Honghua, her heart has been deviated, which is more important than family affection and social relations, Jing Heng should have a choice."

Seeing Li Jingheng leave in fear, Li Zhi's brows tightened again.

It is now winter, and the consequences of the drought in the north are gradually emerging, and most of the grain from the official warehouses of many prefectures and counties in the south has been shipped to the north for relief.

It is actually very difficult for Datang to raise all the food used in a war under such circumstances.

Li Zhi didn't know how hard Li Qinzai worked in Liangzhou City, but he knew that Li Qinzai had to continue to hold on and buy more time to raise grain and grass.

…………

The news of Chang'an was first sent by the Hundred Cavalry Division.

In terms of transmitting news, the ways and means of the Baiqi Division are one step faster than those of Tubo and Tuyuhun. After all, people are professionals.

After getting the news, Song Sen hurriedly entered the Assassin's Mansion to ask to see Li Qinzai.

After Li Qinzai saw the few words on the paper, he suddenly became angry.

"Impeaching me? Are these two embarrassed to impeach me? Li Qinzai was so angry that he kept pacing in the room.

Song Sen hurriedly reassured: "Uncle Li is angry, Your Majesty is wise, and he has not listened to slander, and the trust between Uncle Li and His Majesty really makes the lower officials envious." ”

Li Qinzai snorted: "I still wish Your Majesty would listen to the rumors and transfer me back to Chang'an, do you think I'm willing to stay in this broken city?" Isn't it fragrant to beat a child with your mother-in-law around your mother-in-law at home? ”

Saying that, Li Qinzai sighed gloomily: "Old Song, how can you say that people's hearts can be so bad, I am polite enough to Zhongcong and Princess Honghua, right?" I didn't dig up their ancestral graves, and I didn't take advantage of them. ”

"But what about them? This head talked with me hypocritically, turned his face and sent a letter to Chang'an to impeach me, asking the Son of Heaven to change the envoy, and fabricating so many crimes, you say, am I so evil? ”

Song Sen hesitated for a moment in embarrassment, and finally decided to be honest, so he said in a low voice: "Uh, Uncle Li Xian, the envoys of the two countries said that you slaughtered the Tubo Mission, looted the Tuyuhun tribe, sold Tuyuhun girls, etc., these things...... You did. ”

Li Qinzai was stunned for a moment, and looked at Song Sen's eyes gradually becoming unkind: "Old Song, I'm afraid you haven't tasted the arrogance of Chang'an City for a long time." ”

Song Sen was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Uncle Li Xian misunderstood, what Xia Guan means is that no matter what you do to the two countries, it is out of loyalty to the Tang Dynasty and the Son of Heaven. ”

Li Qinzai took out a paper bag from his arms and handed it to Song Sen.

"Didn't the Hundred Riders arrange eyeliner in the pavilion? Put this thing in the meals of the two missions. ”

Song Sen took it and subconsciously said, "This is ......"

Li Qinzai said: "I think the envoys of the two countries are not right, this package is called 'Righteous Heart and Evil Medicine', to help them heal their diseases, and by the way, add a state." ”
