Chapter 255: Evidence of Guilt (2)
"Sage, this is a "Stone Treatise" written by Changshang Guoyi Deng, and I also ask the sage to look at it!"
Ximen Yang presented a thousand-word paper to Li Jing.
"Why are you showing me this?"
Li Jing looked at Ximenyang like a fool, I asked you to investigate Li Dezhao's crimes, why are you showing me other people's articles?
Is it sick, shouldn't you show me the evidence of Li Dezhao's crime? Who has the effort to read the articles written by others.
"No, no! After reading it, the saint will naturally understand that there is the answer that the saint wants. ”
Ximen Yang hurriedly explained that although this "Stone Treatise" is only a few thousand words, it completely discloses all of Li Dezhao's crimes, and writes how he is dictatorial and domineering.
"Nonsense! How did I have the answer I wanted? ”
Li Jing was stunned for a moment, his tone was quite unkind, if he hadn't read a book, who would write the article exposing the crime of being punished directly, wouldn't he be afraid of Li Dezhao's revenge?
"What the old slave said is true, and he doesn't dare to hide it in the slightest, as long as the saint reads it, he will understand the truth."
Seeing that his master didn't believe it, Ximenyang had to simply analyze it for him.
"If you dare to deceive me, don't blame me for ignoring my old feelings, you must understand the consequences of cheating me!"
Li Jing nodded slightly, although he believed what Ximen Yang said, he still had to remind him, lest he rely on his trust in him to do something that he shouldn't do!
"Don't worry, the old slave, even if the old slave has a hundred guts, the old slave doesn't dare to deceive the saint, isn't it, the saint should hurry up and see what Changshang Guoyi Deng Zhu wrote?"
Li Jing nodded, and then began to read this article by Deng Note, which really revealed how Li Dezhao was authoritarian and domineering, and Li Dezhao had a lot of privileges since he received the holy favor.
He did not want to serve the Son of Heaven and be loyal, but he tried to control power, and at the same time used it to control many fertile lands.
used his power to not only seek personal interests for himself and damage the interests of Datang, but even used his power to benefit his relatives and friends.
This kind of behavior that harms the interests of the imperial court, but fattens his own selfish interests is really hateful, and the plan that was originally discussed by everyone was overturned because of his dislike, and many plans that were beneficial to the imperial court eventually went bankrupt.
This article made Li Jing dumbfounded, he didn't have any rumors about such a thing, this Li Dezhao deceived him so hard!
When he was promoted to be prime minister, he mainly valued his ability, didn't want to bury talents, and hoped that he could make more contributions to Datang.
But now it seems that it is not what he thought at all, Li Jing's face was as ugly as a footcloth in an instant, and he was really sloppy.
I knew that it would become like this, so before promoting Li Dezhao, I should have conducted an investigation on him first, and then decided whether Li Dezhao was suitable to become the prime minister.
"What does this article mean?"
Li Jing glanced at Ximenyang, until now Li Jing is still a dead duck with a hard mouth, but he is unwilling to admit that he has no eyes and cannot see people, in order to save his poor face.
"Yes, this article really can't say anything, here is a piece of music played by the Chinese scholar Yu Hongmin."
Ximen Yang smiled evilly, and immediately took out a book of music and handed it to the dumbfounded Li Jing.
Li Jing took the chapter and looked at it, it was all about Li Dezhao's crimes, is such a person still suitable to become the prime minister?
The answer is no!
"Go and call Yao Xuan to me, and let him enter the palace immediately!"
The corners of Li Jing's mouth kept twitching, and he decided to call Yao Xuan to discuss and see how to treat Li Dezhao's crime?
Soon, Yao Xuan came to Daming Palace, and after saluting, he sat aside, looked at Li Jing sitting on the dragon chair, and wondered what he wanted to do when he was called into the palace so late?
Yao Xuan was a little unsteady in his heart, always feeling that something would happen, but he didn't know what would happen?
"Aiqing take a look, and then tell me what you think?"
Just when Yao Xuan didn't know what to do, Li Jing threw Deng Zhu's article and the recital of the Zhongshu Sheren to Yao Xuan for a look, and asked him to read it and give some advice.
The more Yao Xuan looked, the more frightened he became!
Yao Xuan also saw Li Dezhao's behavior with his own eyes, and kept thinking about the benefits and losses here, as well as figuring out Li Jing's inner thoughts.
Whether he wanted to protect Li Dezhao or solve Li Dezhao's trouble, Yao Xuan took a closer look and probably understood what Li Jing meant.
The content in this seems to revolve around Li Dezhao's dictatorship, but in fact it is written around imperial power, if Li Dezhao is just domineering, the saint cannot have a bad face.
On the contrary, as long as Li Dezhao is obedient enough and can be reused, even if he offends everyone to death, the saint will not hesitate to protect Li Dezhao.
But once this matter is related to the imperial power, if it threatens the imperial power, Li Dezhao is definitely a dead end, and no emperor will allow anyone to threaten his imperial power.
"Aiqing, have you figured out what to say? I want to know, what will you do with this? ”
Li Jing slowly raised his head, looked at Yao Xuan with bright eyes, and asked him to give advice.
"Sage, the minister thinks that Li Dezhao has committed an unforgivable crime, and according to my Tang law, he should be ambushed, and the minister kneels and begs to bring Li Dezhao to justice to calm the hearts of the people!"
Yao Xuan hurriedly stated that a person like Li Dezhao who caused a lot of complaints from the world and shook the foundation of the Tang Dynasty was a heinous sinner and should be connected to the nine clans.
There can be no appeasement, once Li Dezhao becomes powerful, it will only bring unexpected disasters to Datang.
Not killing him is not enough to make the people angry!
"If things are really as impeached by the ministers, Li Zhaode is really a failure to the country."
Li Jing opened his mouth and said, things have really come to this point, and there is nothing to say!
However, Li Jing still doesn't plan to dispose of Li Dezhao so soon, tomorrow is his birthday, and he will wait until after his birthday to deal with Li Dezhao.
Li Dezhao betrayed his trust, ashamed of the Tang Dynasty, and ashamed of the people of the world, but no matter what, he was also the prime minister he promoted, Li Dezhao was guilty, and he was also to blame!
Li Jing and Yao Xuan talked about military affairs again, without mentioning how to deal with Li Dezhao, which made Yao Xuan begin to mumble in his heart.
Could it be that the Son of Heaven called him in the middle of the night just to ask casually and say something inconsequential?
If that's the case, then wouldn't what he just said in vain?
Li Jing saw that it was not early and he was indeed resting, so he sent Yao Xuan out of the palace.
Some people died, but not completely......
