Chapter 37: Demoted to common people and exiled for three thousand miles!
really!
Just as Li Shimin expected!
As soon as Li Shimin sat down and Li You walked to the middle of the hall, Wei Zheng came out holding the wat board!
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty Wei Zheng has something to report!"
Li Shimin smiled and asked: "Ai Qing, what do you want to report?"
Wei Zheng pointed at Li You and said angrily: "Your Majesty, I want to join Li You, King of Yan!"
?
Li You happened to be standing with Wei Zheng at this moment, and was a little surprised to hear someone playing in front of him.
However, he was surprised for a moment and just glanced at Wei Zheng before walking towards the front position.
!!!
This made Wei Zheng so angry that he puffed his beard and glared. Li You's behavior was completely ignoring him. How could this happen?
"Wei Aiqing, tell me what you want to study for King Yan!" Li Shimin also had a flash of surprise in his eyes. You must know that even he was a little scared when faced with Wei Zheng's proposal, but Li You actually acted so calmly. At this moment, he didn't know whether to praise Li You for his unusual calmness or to say that he despised the court's laws and ignored the important officials of the court.
Li You initially walked toward the line of civil servants. After all, Prince Li Chengqian, King of Han Li Ke, and King of Wei Li Tai all stood in front of a certain kind of civil servants. It should be correct for him to stand on that side.
However, except for the Han King Li Ke, whose face was slightly better, the Crown Prince Li Chengqian and the Wei King Li Tai didn't look at me very friendly, and behind them there was Changsun Wuji staring at him, which made him a little unhappy. After a pause, he turned and turned towards the general. The queue goes.
Stand directly with Li Jing.
And as Li You stood up, Li Jing took a step back slightly, directly letting Li You become the first person on the general's side!
See this scene.
Prince Li Chengqian looked disdainful, King Wei Li Tai looked disdainful, and other civil servants such as Sun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and others looked on with cold eyes.
They are not in a hurry.
After all, Wei Zheng had already taken the lead in standing up and clearly stated that he wanted to join Li You, King of Yan.
They just want to watch the show!
If the time is right, add another cut and everything will be perfect.
"Haha, you dare to be so arrogant when you first enter the court. You are really fearless if you don't know. You don't even know how you will die."
"Wei Zheng is not only the censor, but he is also famous for his eloquence. Even His Majesty is worried about his advice, let alone the mere King of Yan."
"Now let's see how Wei Zheng takes care of King Yan. In front of the civil and military ministers, even if your Majesty wants to protect King Yan, it will be difficult."
"The show is about to begin!"
In the main hall, the ministers all had similar thoughts, they all planned to watch the show. Even if someone wanted to speak for Li You, they could not stand up at this moment.
Wei Zheng sorted out his thoughts in his mind, bowed to Li Shimin, and said: "Your Majesty! I, King Yan, was late for the first time I attended the court meeting. I was so contemptuous of the court laws. According to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, I should have ten battles and a fine of three months. !”
Just when the officials thought that was enough, Wei Zheng spoke again.
"In addition, when King Yan went to court, he acted recklessly and ignored His Majesty, which was really a crime of treason! According to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, if he is a courtier, he should be removed from his official position and sent to death row; if he is a prince, he should be demoted to a commoner and exiled for three thousand miles!"
As soon as Wei Zheng said these words.
There was silence above the court!
The ministers even took a breath of air.
I secretly thought that Wei Zheng was really brave!
This is to press Li You directly to death!
If it were just an ordinary prince, Wei Zheng would be too problematic to do this, but the current King of Yan Li You is obviously very popular with His Majesty. He will directly beat the King of Yan to the end and exile him for three thousand miles. This is not only to send the King of Yan to It offends you to death, and you don’t even give His Majesty the face!
After listening to Wei Zheng's words, Li Shimin sat on the dragon chair and said nothing.
The ministers below did not dare to speak carelessly at this moment.
"Your Majesty, I think this is the first time King Yan goes to court. He doesn't understand the rules of the court very well. Mistakes are inevitable and should be dealt with lightly!"
In the queue of civil servants, Quan Wanji, who was standing at the back, quickly came out to speak for Li You.
"If there is a mistake, it is also my fault as a teacher. I did not teach His Highness King Yan well. I am willing to be punished for King Yan!"
Quan Wanji knelt on the ground and said loudly.
???
If Wei Zheng's speech only surprised the officials, Quan Wanji's speech was completely shocking.
Everyone knows that although Quan Wanji was appointed as the teacher of King Yan Li You, he hated King Yan very much and even threatened to participate in King Yan's performance. However, today he was the first to stand up to protect King Yan.
Did they hear wrongly? Or were their ears hallucinating?
But judging from the shocked expressions of the ministers, they heard correctly. Quan Wanji, who was also the imperial censor like Wei Zheng, actually spoke for Yan Wang Li You!
Although Quan Wanji is only the censor holding the book, and Wei Zheng is the censor, they are both censors and have the power to supervise the officials and make suggestions to the emperor. In this way, the decision-making power returns to His Majesty. On hand.
Li Shimin still said nothing.
The entire court fell into silence again.
At this moment, Prince Li Chengqian scolded Li You directly: "I haven't gone to court for several days in a row and have caused such a big trouble. Why don't you quickly admit your mistake to your father and seek a lighter punishment?" "
Hearing Li Chengqian's words, Li You rolled his eyes.
On the surface, this sentence is to help yourself, but in fact, it is a way to make yourself admit guilt. Once you admit guilt... haha.
[Your sister, I didn’t offend you, did you? Are you so anxious to kill us? 】
[Do you think I want to go to court this morning? If you have the guts, go tell Li Er and tell me not to go to court!]
【A crazy person!】
[Forget it, think about it, Li Chengqian, you are quite pitiful. Not to mention that you are a lame, but you are still worried that you will be abolished, which makes you crazy. In the end, your rebellion failed, so why bother. 】
【The throne is not as fragrant as you think.】
Li You complained speechlessly in his heart.
And these complaints, without exception, all reached Li Shimin's ears.
What the hell?
Li Chengqian wants to rebel?
This is impossible... right!
You must know that Li Chengqian is the eldest son of Li Shimin and Empress Changsun. He was named Chengqian, and you know that Li Shimin has high hopes for him. Li Shimin also likes his son very much. He has always been cultivating Li Chengqian as the next emperor of the Tang Dynasty, but I never thought I would rebel against myself!
Subconsciously.
Li Shimin's eyes fell on Li Chengqian.
The imperial pressure suddenly fell on Li Chengqian like an overwhelming mountain, which made him tremble all over, his face looked panicked, and his heart was even more trembling.
Could it be that my father has seen through my little thoughts?
I'm really stupid. I still do this little trick at this time. My father hates brothers killing each other. Isn't this looking for death?
The more Li Chengqian thought about it, the more frightened he became. If Changsun Wuji hadn't quietly helped him up behind him, he would have collapsed immediately.
