"Exactly!"

Wang Qi frowned slightly and said in a deep voice.

He didn't see the change in Li Shimin's expression, otherwise he wouldn't have answered so quickly.

"Does Wang Xiang really understand the situation in Liaozhou?"

"They don't know, so you, as a servant, came to me without checking?"

Li Shimin was suddenly furious.

Throw out the fold you just shot.

With a few snaps, the secret music fell to the ground and landed at the feet of Wang Qi and the others.

"Your Majesty, the people of Liaozhou are miserable!"

Wang Qi and Pei Lin glanced at each other, and Pei Lin also stepped forward.

Now the two are not talking about Fang Yuan's incriminating evidence, but about Fang Yuan's management in Liaozhou.

Liaozhou is so big, no matter how good the policies Fang Yuan does, there will always be some people's interests infringed.

Among them, the families in Liaozhou were the most affected, and they were about to become the deprived part, and they had to curry favor with those untouchables.

"It's so miserable, but what I see is that some families in Liaozhou are doing nonsense and want to rebel!"

"I really tolerate Hedong too much, so that some evil forces dare to rebel, and dare to kill the current assassin to pretend to be themselves!"

"I'm the new emperor, so the evil forces in the place don't take me seriously, do they? Do you think my knife isn't sharp enough? ”

Li Shimin's voice was even louder.

The momentum has also become more turbulent.

It's like an angry tiger, roaring out of the air of a king.

Similarly, Li Shimin has already learned about what happened in Liaozhou.

The father and son of the Liaoshan Wang family dared to take advantage of the absence of the assassin to launch a coup d'état and unite with the family to seek his assassination position.

If it weren't for Fang Yuan's precautions, then now it reached his ears, it would have become Fang Yuan's poisoning of the people, and Wang Chengzhe's county order turned the tide and saved Liaozhou from danger.

As a result, he was concealed, and the history of Liaozhou assassination was also recommended by many families, and it was logical that he became the new assassin of Liaozhou!

Damn, really hateful, totally intolerable!

"Your Majesty is angry!"

"That's Fang Yuan's trick!"

Pei Lian's face changed, and he said in a deep voice.

There is no doubt that Li Shimin is referring to Sang and scolding Huai.

scolded the Pei family, also scolded the Wang family, and scolded the two families for being the culprits.

At the same time, he also secretly scolded himself and Wang Qi for having no eyes and not being able to see the truth clearly.

"Pei Xiang is really old."

"I thought it was time for Pei Xiang to pay tribute."

Li Shimin's eyes were cold, staring at Pei Lian, and said in a deep voice.

"Your Majesty doesn't believe in the old ministers, but let the old ministers do it, isn't Your Majesty afraid of hurting the hearts of the courtiers?"

"The old minister has done his best for the Tang Dynasty, and he has worked hard for the founding of the Tang Dynasty, and he has no merit and hard work!"

Pei Lian's eyes were cold, and he said in a deep voice.

Today, he wants to ease the relationship with the emperor.

Otherwise, Pei Lin would go directly to the Emperor Taishang to complain when he encountered a problem.

However, he took the initiative to show weakness, and in exchange for Li Shimin's request for Zhishi.

This made Pei Lin very angry, and at the same time very unwilling, and very dissatisfied with Li Shimin.

"Pei Xiang has made mistakes repeatedly, and I am afraid that the outstanding talents of the Tang Dynasty will be destroyed in the hands of Pei Xiang."

"For the sake of Pei Xiang, for the sake of me, and for the good of the Tang Dynasty, please Pei Xiangzhishi!"

Li Shimin said with a calm face.

It seemed polite, but his eyes full of anger stared at Pei Lian.

Pei Lin had a dark face and was about to fight back, but suddenly, the sound of reading aloud came from outside the imperial study.

"According to the Liaozhou City Report: Liaoshan Wang's father and son, together with Pei Yinghua and others, poisoned the workers of major factories in Liaozhou, resulting in the poisoning of more than 3,000 people."

"The father and son of the Liaoshan Wang family took the opportunity to seize control of the Liaozhou Assassin Mansion, led three hundred clan soldiers to besiege the Fang Mansion, and tried to forcibly convict Fang Yuan, the Liaozhou Assassin Mansion, but Fang Yuan, who faked out, found through and counterattacked."

"Liaoshan Wang's father and son admitted the crime, and at the same time, Zhou Kaile, the county commander of Yushe County, exposed a lot of evidence of Wang Chengzhe's crime, and the father and son's guilt are conclusive, and they have pleaded guilty and are waiting to be beheaded."

"Pei Yinghua cooperated with the father and son of the Liaoshan Wang family to stir up Liaozhou City, so that the people of Liaozhou City were in a panic, according to Qin Liangcai's evidence, Pei Yinghua was a behind-the-scenes supporter of the Taiyuan bandits, and participated in the death of the previous Liaozhou assassins, the evidence is conclusive, and he committed suicide and pleaded guilty!"

Du Ruhui walked in.

With it, there are also Fang Xuanling and the eldest grandson Wuji.

At the invitation of Li Shimin, the three of them had been waiting outside the hall for a long time, when they heard a roar from inside, and then came in.

"Can Du Xiang be sure that the evidence in this is true?"

Pei Lin took a deep breath and said in a deep voice.

He has exchanged letters with Pei Yinghua many times.

But I have never heard that the Taiyuan bandits are secretly supported by Pei Yinghua.

Wang Jue on the side lowered his head, his eyes flashed with worry, and he felt that he had broken into a whirlpool: the emperor wanted to use this problem to get Pei Xiangge out.

A person who is too emperor cannot be in such a high position.

There are few ministers of the DPRK and China who do not know about the contradictions between the two.

"If Pei Xiang doesn't believe it, he can check it himself."

Du Ruhui said softly.

At this moment, he was not as aggressive as last time.

After today, Pei Lin will most likely be demoted out to give some face to his colleagues.

"Your Majesty, the minister farewell!"

Pei Lin darkened his face and said in a deep voice.

He turned around and walked towards the outside of the Taiji Palace.

"Pei Xiang, I hope to receive your resignation in seven days!"

Li Shimin said expressionlessly.

As an old minister and the founder of the country, he has repeatedly given Pei Lin a good face.

If Pei Lin is still not interested, then don't blame yourself for not giving him face as an old minister.

Pei Lin stopped, and everyone looked at him, but Pei Lin did not respond to Li Shimin's words.

There was only a slight pause, and then he walked in the direction of the gate, but the figure became quite over.

Out of the imperial study, Pei Lin stood at the door for a while, and did not return directly to Pei's mansion, but went to Tai'an Palace.

"Your Majesty, the minister will retire first."

Wang Qi whispered.

I want to take the opportunity to leave the palace.

He wanted to save face for the Wang family.

He was also very dissatisfied with Fang Yuan and wanted to take this opportunity to teach Fang Yuan a lesson.

But obviously, he came at the wrong time, Du Ruhui and the three of them were all henchmen of the emperor, and they followed the world to fight the world.

Now is not the time to save face.

"Wang Xiang is in a hurry, I just have something to discuss with Wang Xiang."

Li Shimin stopped Wang Qi with an expressionless face.

Wang Qi's ability to serve is a little insufficient.

However, considering that Wang Jue may have mastered the property left by Prince Yin, Li Shimin forcibly promoted him.

Because Wang Qi had a relationship with the Taiyuan Wang family, there were very few people who opposed it in the court, so Wang Qi became a servant without resistance.

"Your Majesty, please speak clearly."

Wang Qi said.

Thinking about what Li Shimin was going to say.

"I want to attach importance to the imperial examination and fully implement the imperial examination, I don't know what Wang Xiang's opinion is?"

Li Shimin said in a deep voice.

Since the last time he talked to Fang Yuan, he had been thinking about the imperial examination.

It is determined that the implementation of the imperial examination and the importance of the imperial examination will be able to dismantle the family's control over the locality.

For example, what happened in Liaozhou this time, if there was no Fang Yuan, if others did the assassination, they might have been succeeded by the Wang family father and son.

Because they are all local families, the county orders of the three counties are not just their own counties, and they are all members of Liaozhou.

But at this time, if there are more officials who are not local, and they are not officials from various families, then they will not agree to this happening, and the family will help.

In order to get the family's control over the local area as soon as possible, Li Shimin decided to carry out the imperial examination from now on.

It just so happened that the trend of retreating from Pei was used to reduce the opposition of more people.

"Your Majesty, the imperial examination is a relic of the previous dynasty, so don't you pay too much attention to it?"

"History may say that we have no one in the Tang Dynasty, and we will only copy the things of the previous dynasty."

Wang Jue pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice.

"Your Majesty, the minister suggests careful consideration!"

Du Ruhui stood up and said.

He did not know in advance that the imperial court should attach importance to the imperial examination.

"Your Majesty, please be careful!"

The eldest grandson Wuji and Fang Xuanling also spoke.

Obviously, it was also the first time that the four ministers present knew that Li Shimin had the idea of attaching importance to the imperial examination.

"The tyranny of the Sui Dynasty, the whole world attacked it, this is the will of the people of the world."

"However, the Sui Dynasty also has things that are worth learning from the Tang Dynasty, and there are also things that we are worth learning."

"We don't deny the good of a thing, nor do we cover up the bad of a thing, as long as there is something worth learning from this thing, we can learn from it."

"I want to attach importance to the imperial examination, and to carry out the imperial examination, starting from all provinces, states and counties, I ordered the imperial court to vigorously publicize it, at least so that the villagers also know that the imperial court attaches great importance to the imperial examination."

Li Shimin said in a deep voice.

The eyes slowly sharpened.

In addition to Wang Qi in front of him, Du Ruhui and the others can be said to be the most trustworthy group.

But even the most trustworthy group is the one who opposes the importance and implementation of the imperial examination.

Because they are essentially from major families, and there are thousands of interests behind them, etc.

"Your Majesty, now that the imperial court is about to start a war against the Eastern Turks, is the matter of the imperial examination slowly being planned?"

Wang Qi pondered for a moment, still not wanting to agree.

The imperial examination is a matter of great importance and has triggered the interests of too many families.

The reason for the demise of the previous dynasty is also partly due to the implementation of the imperial examination.

"Yes, Your Majesty, please be careful!"

Du Ruhui and several people seconded the proposal.

"War and imperial examinations are two different things."

"The imperial court only needs soldiers to fight, and it doesn't need everyone to fight."

"If the court doesn't have to do anything because of the war, then what's the use of keeping the princes of the Manchu Dynasty, just follow Pei Lianzhishi?"

Li Shimin said in a deep voice.

We still insist on attaching importance to the imperial examination and implementing it.

Fang Yuan's words, what had just happened in Liaozhou, made him pay attention to the imperial examination completely and firmly.

If the imperial court has sufficient money, he will also support the entanglement of students to travel according to Fang Yuan's intentions.

"Your Majesty is wise, and the minister supports!"

Wang Qi sighed in his heart and said respectfully.

Obviously, Li Shimin is warning not to forget what he has just committed.

Pei Lin is the end, he hasn't investigated his own problems yet, so he has to agree with his policy.

As a last resort, Wang Jue agreed to Li Shimin's policy.

"Du Xiang, what about you?"

Li Shimin looked at Du Ruhui and was aggressive.

"Minister's support!"

Du Ruhui sighed in his heart and said respectfully.

Li Shimin pressed the eldest grandson Wuji and Fang Xuanling again, and finally the two agreed.

"Very good, tomorrow morning, the court will attach importance to the imperial examination and reconsider the implementation of the imperial examination."

Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction.

Send Wang Jue, Du Ruhui and others away.

Although the idea was initially realized, Li Shimin could not be happy.

In the end, the family is still too rampant, and it is okay in the imperial capital, but the place is not easy to manage.

It would be nice if there were more officials like Fang Yuan, and his imperial power would be more concentrated.

Thinking of Fang Yuan, Li Shimin began to worry that although Fang Yuan only did something to the Pei family and the Wang family this time, it made the world's wang clan dissatisfied, and it was estimated that there would be many families targeting Fang Yuan in the future.

When Li Shimin was worried about Fang Yuan.

Fang Yuan and his party have really left Liaozhou City and set off for Langzhou.

On this departure, Fang Yuan and Zhang San also brought Hongxu and Qing Yuan, as well as the Xue family sisters and brothers.

Fang Yuan needed Xue Bowu's protection, and Xue Jiaoyan didn't want to stay alone in Fang Mansion, so she went along.

For four days in a row, everyone was on the bumpy official road, and it was better to enter the Langzhou area.

At present, in addition to Wuling County and Liaozhou, there is also one cement road in Langzhou, which was built by Fang Yuan when he built Wuling County.

There is only one, and you can only reach Langzhou City.

But because of this road, there is a lot of traffic in Langzhou City.

Many caravans doing business in Wuling County may pass through Langzhou City, driving the local economy.

At this time, although Langzhou City was located in the remote south, it was not backward than the current Liaozhou.

"Ouch, it's finally in Langzhou City, but it exhausts me."

Xue Jiaoyan got out of the carriage with a white face.

She hadn't worked so hard to get over the road, and she even threw up several times on the way.

"Sister, are you okay?"

Xue Bowu patted her on the back with concern behind her back.

But Xue Bo's force was not serious, and this shot almost made Xue Jiaoyan angry.

"You want to murder your sister?!"

Xue Jiaoyan coughed again and again, jumped up and rewarded Xue Bowu with a chestnut.

With a bang, it hurt so much that Xue Bowu covered his head and pushed it aside, looking at Xue Jiaoyan pitifully.

"Jiaoyan, you always work so hard, aren't you afraid of knocking Bo Wu's brain?"

Fang Yuan frowned slightly.

He had wanted to say this for a long time.

Normal people who are knocked on the brain like this are prone to concussion.

Moreover, Xue Bowu's brain itself is not good, and he wonders if it is Xue Jiaoyan's credit.

"You have to take care of it."

Xue Jiaoyan glared at Fang Yuan.

Then he muttered: You think I want to, I want to knock his brain.

But Fang Yuan didn't hear the next words, and after a blank glance, he didn't mention this matter anymore.

In the matter between the two sisters and brothers, Fang Yuan felt that he should not interfere too much and save him from being unhappy.

Soon, Zhang San and Hongxu Qingyu bought a lot of fruits and so on in Langzhou City and set off for Zhaofu.

The Zhao family is also quite prestigious in Langzhou City, not from a cold family, but from the Nanyang Zhao family, which is a branch of it.

Therefore, the Zhao family's mansion is solemn and luxurious, not like Fang Yuan's Fang Mansion in Liaozhou.

After the briefing, someone soon came out to greet them.

At the head was a yellow-robed girl, about fifteen or sixteen years old, who trotted out like a yellow bird, accompanied by the laughter of silver bells.

When she was running close to Fang Yuan and the others, she suddenly slowed down, walked towards Fang Yuan with brisk steps like a small jasper, and shouted shyly:

"Brother Yuan!"
