Longqing's temperament is true, but now it has been the fifth year of Longqing and has been in the most powerful position in the world for more than four years.

It was impossible that the timid King Yu was still the one who could not listen to Li Chunfang's remarks that advised him to admit his mistakes, and naturally felt unhappy in his heart.

Zhang Fu is an old man from Prince Yu's mansion, so he naturally knows Long Qing's intentions at this moment. He just thought about the experiences of Meng Chong, Teng Xiang and others, and he did not dare to interfere in political affairs in front of the five cabinet ministers, so he silently lowered his head and did not dare to

Stand out and support Longqing.

Longqing turned his head and looked at Zhang Juzheng who was standing on the far right. Zhang Juzheng knew Longqing's expectation, but he actually avoided Longqing's gaze.

Although he knew that betting on Longqing was the only way to stand out, the teacher who had been in charge of the court for decades was defeated. How could he, the last-time cabinet master, with no foundation, bear Lin Yanran's anger?

"Emperor, I have said in Qiandi: I will examine myself three times a day, and I should do this even more for the emperor. Please reflect on yourself and punish Li Tao for his crimes lightly!" Chen Yiqin saw Long Qing's facial expression in his eyes, but it was

Said again.

Chen Yiqin was the imperial tutor of the ninth year of Longqing in Prince Yu's Mansion. His qualifications were not weaker than Gao Gong, but his personality was too serious and upright. Not to mention that he could not compare with Gao Gong, he was inferior to Zhang Juzheng who had been in the third year later.

However, although this kind of person is not likable, it is more principled. He still hopes that Longqing will recognize his mistakes instead of just punishing Li Tao severely.

Guo Pu and Lin Qingran's attitude naturally supported Li Chunfang, but they were no longer able to express their opinions. After all, the voices of the five of them were too unified may trigger Long Qing's boycott.

That's right, it depends on whether Long Qing realized his mistakes and corrected them, or he still insisted on dealing with Li Tao.

"Master Li Ge, Master Chen, Li Tao scolded me for being drunk, sex, money and energy, but this fact was deliberately slandering me!" Long Qing felt aggrieved and immediately began to defend himself: "I have made a turtle mountain lamp in Xiyuan

It's true, but isn't this for the sake of being brighter at night? Li Tao said that I'm so greedy, but who doesn't drink alcohol in the world? Who doesn't enjoy the joy of fish and water with his own women? As for his saying that I'm greedy for money, this is even more nonsense

Talk! I only asked the Ministry of Revenue for property several times, but the money I asked for was not much, and the Ministry of Revenue repeatedly rejected me. How could I say that I was greedy for money and consumed money?"

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but grit his teeth, thinking that Ma Sen, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, always finds reasons to refuse his request, which makes him wish he could be thrown into pieces.

Longqing did not end the topic, but continued to defend himself: "Li Sui said that I am still angry, but no one has any temper. It was indeed inappropriate for the father to punish all officials at Zuoshun's Sect, but since I ascended the throne,

There are very few officials dealing with them. For example, the search of the Xu family is because of his son Xu Ying doing many evil deeds. However, now seeing that the Xu family's wealth has accumulated as much as a mountain, and after scrutinizing Xu Jie's guilt, I have no mistake at all!"

However, regardless of Xu Jie's previous title as a "virtuous prime minister", the fact that the Xu family's wealth was searched has indirectly confirmed that Xu Jie's hands and feet were not clean.

What's more, Xu Jie's fall of the situation lost its deterrence, and many old past events were revealed. Longqing's search for the Xu family was undoubtedly a just move.

Lin Qingran and Guo Pu exchanged glances. Although Long Qing's self-dispute sounded quite reasonable, it was actually just a change of concepts.

This is true that people in the world are good at drinking, lust, greedy and wealth, but Longqing obviously cannot grasp that degree and has never fulfilled his duties. On the contrary, the wine, lust, wealth and energy that Li Tao accused of is not aimless, but Longqing's wine and wealth are both affected by wealth and energy.

.

As for the search of the Xu family, it deliberately brought out this reasonable and well-founded exception, but it directly ignored the fact that it deliberately retaliated against Lin Xuan and other officials.

"Emperor, I have just made it clear that Li Tao's words are indeed exaggerated. He mistakenly listened to the words of the road and reported frivolously, and he should be punished. But Li Tao directly advised the emperor in hope that the emperor would be more self-disciplined and be a follower.

The wise and wise king like the Ming Chengzu was a loyal king. Although he had the truth of being a rash man, he was based on loyalty to the emperor and patriotism. He also asked the emperor to punish Li Tao for his crimes and discipline himself strictly! "Li Chunfang did not expect that Longqing was

He could speak so well that he would reiterate it again.

Long Qing felt anger in his heart, but he expressed his attitude and said, "Gei Li, Li Tao is not loyal to me! In my opinion, Li Tao clearly wants to borrow my reputation, how can I forgive him easily this time

?”

When Guo Pu and others saw that Long Qing still insisted on punishing Li Tao severely, they couldn't help but sigh, but they knew that Li Chunfang's efforts would be wasted.

If Longqing did not make concessions and did not realize his mistakes, then the confrontation between the monarch and the ministers would form, and Li Chunfang would probably have no room for maneuver.

"Emperor, Li Tao is not a person who seeks fame and reputation. This matter can be proved. If the emperor is tolerant and unrestrained, he will see the great virtue of the saints, and he can also defeat the accusations of Li Tao of Shangqi. Please think twice!"

Li Chunfang also felt that Longqing was not convinced by him, but he still made the final effort.

The cabinet ministers who summoned the cabinet in Longqing wanted to severely punish Li Tao for venting his anger and calm the storm. However, they found that Li Chunfang had gone around a long circle and wanted to favor his student Li Tao, and he couldn't help but coldly throw out his killer weapon and said: "Li Ge."

Old, if Li Tao was not for fame, I had already left his memorial, why did he leak the content of the memorial so that everyone knew about it? Li Tao's move was not for fame, but what was his intention?

for?"

this……

Guo Pu and others heard Long Qing's logical and meticulous analysis. While secretly amazementing Long Qing's smartness, they couldn't help but turn their heads silently and look at Li Chunfang.

This is indeed the case. The content of Li Tao’s memorial is said to be a secret. If Li Tao only tried to persuade Yu Longqing, then his purpose should be to express his ideas to Longqing, and the memorial has reached its goal after it is delivered.

However, Li Tao still wanted to make the content of the memorial public, so this was an extra measure, and Li Tao's judgment of admonition out of loyalty was simply untrue.

Zhang Fu's mouth raised slightly, looking very proud of his logical analysis ability. He raised his chin and looked proudly at Li Chunfang and others.

"Your Majesty, the matter of the memorial leak has nothing to do with Li Tao, but it was actually the work of the minister!" Li Chunfang hesitated for a moment, and immediately said in a surprisingly authentic way.

ah?

The people present heard the memorial that Li Chunfang deliberately exposed it. They looked at Li Chunfang in disbelief, but they never expected that Li Chunfang would have such a "big rebellious" behavior.
