After Fang Xuanling received a few impeachment letters, he originally wanted to block these letters back.

The many gentlemen in Chang'an City not only involve a lot of officials, but also the factions of officials involved are also extremely complex.

There is nothing wrong with these gentlemen on weekdays, even if they sue the emperor, they will just cause trouble for him.

Except for asking the emperor to call those ministers over and criticize them, it will not have any other effect at all.

However, when he read all the names of the officials in the letters, he immediately frowned.

This involves Cheng Yanjin, Wei Zheng, Dai Guan, Duan Lun, and even Fang Xuanling himself.

Seeing these people, Fang Xuanling's brows immediately furrowed.

Judging from his many years of experience as an official, this incident was definitely secretly instigated by someone.

And the person who commanded it must have an ulterior secret.

Fang Xuanling pondered for a long time, and then felt that he must not suppress this matter privately.

Otherwise, a bad one is likely to be impeached immediately.

And the person who played the performance obviously thought of this, so he dared to offend so many officials at one time.

At this time, the only thing Fang Xuanling couldn't figure out was that there were few real illegal things about the impeachment content on these folds.

Even if there are a few of them, it is just a slap in the face for these gentlemen, and they will be put in prison for a few days at most.

Is it really worth offending a group of high-ranking officials in the court for these trivial things?

Fang Xuanling thought about it for a long time but still couldn't figure it out, and finally had to shake his head and give up thinking.

He put these letters into the pile of notes that were about to be presented to Li Shimin, and then returned home with a frown.

The letter that involved him told Fang Yuai.

The previous Fang Yiai was indeed a bit of a jerk, although he had never made a serious mistake, but he made a lot of small mistakes.

Unexpectedly, now that he has just made military exploits, he has been turned over by others.

At this time, Fang Xuanling's heart was not angry about this matter.

Fang Yiai's current changes have made him very satisfied.

He has also helped deal with a lot of the previous mistakes.

Come to think of it, even if there is a punishment for Fang Yiai, it is just a bit of flesh and skin.

Li Shimin really didn't care much about those twists and turns after seeing them.

Mo said that it was the second generation of these officials, even some children of the royal family did not cause trouble outside.

At this time, Li Shimin even complained that Fang Xuanling was making a big fuss.

Even if his children were involved, he shouldn't have dealt with it that way.

This kind of thing only needs to be told to a few ministers and told them to go home and punish themselves, so why should they report it to themselves?

However, just two days later, at the court meeting, Li Shimin immediately changed his previous mind.

At the court meeting, Li Shimin simply discussed the progress of various projects with the ministers, and wanted to announce the end.

But he didn't want to be at this moment, and Li Qianyou, the servant of the imperial history, suddenly stood up.

I only heard him speak: "Your Majesty, Weichen has reported a number of high-ranking officials and godsons two days ago, why did Your Majesty ignore it?" ”

After hearing his words, Li Shimin frowned and said, "I have ordered a few people to discipline them strictly. ”

Li Qianyou spoke again: "The children of several adults are habitual offenders, and their deceitful behavior has continued for a long time.

The ministers thought that this was deliberately connived at by a few adults, and they clearly did not take the laws of the court into account. ”

Li Shimin opened his mouth and said: "What you play is all children's nonsense, and what does it have to do with the laws of the imperial court?" ”

Li Qianyou said: "Your Majesty, several of the things performed by the ministers have already violated the law, and the other events add up to enough to convict.

The minister asked His Majesty to punish several adults severely, so as not to continue to connive at the children of the family and make the people of Chang'an suffer from bullying. ”

Li Shimin couldn't help but feel angry when he saw Li Qianyou bite so tightly.

This great court meeting is a place to discuss major national affairs, and you actually use these trivial matters to discuss with me?

Li Shimin took a deep breath and was about to open his mouth again and refuse to talk about it.

At this moment, Kong Yingda, the priest of the country who was standing in front, suddenly stood up.

I only heard him speak: "The minister also thinks that the issue of your lordship's tutoring should be taken seriously.

Nowadays, many children of officials in the capital do not study and do not want to make progress.

Most of the children fight cocks and dogs in the streets all day long, oppressing the people.

If this matter is not resolved as soon as possible, it will inevitably attract a lot of public resentment. ”

Kong Yingda stood up and spoke out of public considerations.

However, he did not know that his speech had given Li Chengqian the opportunity to speak.

I only heard him speak: "What the Lord of the Wine Priest said is reasonable, and the children of officials should be strict with themselves so as not to bring shame to their fathers."

Your lords should not blindly indulge and make the children of the family more and more presumptuous. ”

After his words were finished, Li Qianyou then spoke: "Weichen impeached Wei Zheng again, Dai Guan, Duan Lun, Fang Xuanling, Cheng Yanjin and others have no way to teach their children.

Please ask Your Majesty to severely punish a few people to set an example for hundreds of officials, and prevent the children of officials from causing greater public resentment. ”

The successive statements of Kong Yingda and Li Chengqian suddenly made Li Shimin fall into a dilemma.

The people impeached by Li Qianyou were all important ministers of the DPRK and the central government.

If they were to be punished for this trivial matter, it would inevitably cause displeasure among several people.

But if you ignore it, it will obviously be difficult to cross Kong Yingda's level.

This is the leader among the literati of the Tang Dynasty, if this matter can't pass his level, the literati in Chang'an City will have to make trouble.

At this moment, Li Zhi suddenly spoke: "Father, most of the children of these officials are still studying in the Guozijian or Taixue.

The so-called son does not teach the fault of the father, and the teacher is lazy if he does not teach strictly.

Although you adults have no way to teach their children, Taixue and the professors in the Guozi Prison are afraid that they will not escape the relationship.

If you want to be punished, it is better to punish them together, so as to save the adults from resentment. ”

After Li Zhi said this, Kong Yingda's old face suddenly turned red.

Although Li Zhi didn't know if it was his own summary or heard it from elsewhere, the truth he said was completely correct.

It is true that most of the children of these officials are now studying in the two academies.

And the mistakes they made are really inseparable from each other.

Thinking of this, Kong Yingda immediately didn't dare to speak.

Li Zhi continued to speak at this time: "Your Excellency is busy with state affairs all day, how many of you can stay at home from time to time?

The children of officials mostly stay in the academy every day.

If the two colleges can't teach these children well, how can the adults do it? ”

Speaking of this, Li Zhi turned his head to look at Li Qianyou.

I just heard him continue: "If there is actual evidence for what Lord Li did, why don't you go directly to the yamen to accuse?"

Although this king does not dare to say that he is selfless, he is not so bold as to cover up everyone and destroy the foundation of my royal governance. ”

After Li Zhi's words were finished, Li Qianyou's eyes suddenly widened.
