At the court meeting the next day, Li You, who had been demoted to a commoner and executed, was still left with some dignity after his death by Li Shimin, who ordered him to be buried according to the rites of a duke.
It can also be regarded as a way to show Li Shimin's kindness...
As for Li Yuanchang, the king of Han Dynasty who still refused to admit his mistake after being captured. Instead, he scolded and ridiculed Li Shimin. Like Li You, his family was demoted to common people. Li Yuanchang and his two adult sons were ordered to die, and their bodies were thrown to each of them.
's widow.
Moreover, at the same time, he ordered Li Yuanchang's family to be sent to Lingnan and ordered to leave Beijing in half a month.
When it came time to deal with Hou Junji's family, before Li Shimin could speak, Li Chengqian, Fang Yiai, and Yuchi Baolin, who had just returned to the capital, came out to ask Li Shimin to remember Hou Zanjun's past achievements and to return in compliance with the emperor's order.
Beijing, and was neither involved nor aware of Hou Junji's rebellion, please ask Li Shimin to be extra kind and forgive Hou Zanjun.
Seeing that the princes had all come out, Qin Qiong, who was the minister of the Ministry of War, weighed Hou Zanjun's ability and also came out to say some pertinent words of intercession.
But then, Fang Yiai finally understood what differential treatment was.
Li Chengqian's plea for mercy was considered to be polite and virtuous, but Li Shimin only said a few words of indifference and dismissed him.
Qin Qiong came out to plead for mercy, but Li Shimin thought that he was loyal and dedicated, and could distinguish talents for the country. He praised him lukewarmly and sent him to the ranks.
Yuchi Baolin begged for mercy, but Li Shimin thought that he cared about Pao Ze's feelings and was a man of justice, so he simply said a few words and asked him to return to the team.
However, when it was Fang Yiai's turn, Li Shimin seemed to have found an upright punching bag, and severely reprimanded Fang Yiai. He also criticized Fang Yiai's earlier exchange of military service for Li You's return to Qidi.
He turned it out and scolded Fang Yiai like a storm.
Fang Yiai was really wronged and didn't want to think about what happened back then. However, he, the emperor, agreed and it was because he had this intention that he did it. It's good now that he doesn't recognize this business anymore. It was all wrong.
I have become a widower and love myself.
His emotions and his unfinished anger were all vented on Fang Yiai.
The scolding didn't count. He was also ordered to go home and be grounded to reflect on his mistakes, and was even fined Fang Yiai's salary for three months.
Fang Yiai couldn't help but curse in her heart and punished him with home confinement. Is it because she was afraid that he would not be able to hand in the painting on time? The punishment was not because she felt sorry for the piece of high-quality Wada mutton fat that he gave to her before.
A jade pendant?
In order to be depressed, you can't just be depressed about yourself. After Li Shimin finished his words and sat back on the throne in a comfortable mood, Fang Yiai blinked his eyes and asked seriously, "Your Majesty, in the next three months
"I don't have a salary to buy rice for cooking, can I live by pawning things?" The implication is, I want to pawn the jade pendant, and don't expect me to return it, because the emperor is really going too far today, and his wife's legacy is
There is grievance in love.
Li Shimin, who had just felt relieved, almost choked on his saliva due to Fang Yiai's words, and looked at Fang Yiai fiercely. His expression kept changing.
"Gaoyang's salary can't support you! Huh?" Li Shimin almost forgot that this was the imperial court, and looked at Fang Yiai, who was careless, and said through gritted teeth.
"I'm a man! It's my responsibility to support my family! How can I use my wife's private room!" Fang Yiai straightened his back, his expression was extremely serious, he spoke sternly and solemnly.
"If you dare to pawn, I will transfer everything in your house to the national treasury tomorrow! You think I don't know your kid's net worth! Ah! You don't have rice to cook with! If you don't have rice to cook with, the people in the capital will be a long time ago
Four to five out of ten will starve to death! Get lost! Get lost! You are not allowed to leave the house without my summons! Don't be an eyesore in front of me! Get back!" Li Shimin roared angrily, holding Fang Yiai in his hand.
Hou Zanjun's plea for mercy was thrown at Fang Yiai, but unfortunately it was a bit far away and missed the target.
"I obey the order." Seeing that Li Shimin was almost angry, and his own anger was a little bit better, Fang Yiai took it easy, thanked him, rubbed oil on his feet, and ran away.
Most of the ministers who came to the court lowered their heads, saying that they heard and saw nothing just now. In fact, they had suppressed their laughter for a long time, but they couldn't laugh in front of Li Shimin who was choked by Fang Yiai.
Since the emperor was able to get so angry and knew that Fang Yiai was not harmed by mercy, it seems that the impact of the previous successive rebellions should have been basically overcome by the emperor, leaving nothing bad behind.
sequelae.
Fang Xuanling had a headache and wanted to hold up her forehead. She really didn't know whether her son's courage was big in front of Li Shimin? Or was it big? Or was it really big?
You know clearly that the emperor is just looking for an excuse to vent the anger in your heart. Are you okay soon after you let the emperor vent his anger? But he doesn't. When the emperor is unreasonably angry, he will always find a solution after the emperor vents his anger.
Why don't you push it back?
Sometimes when the emperor is depressed and wants to get angry, he always likes to come to him. Whenever Li Shimin is angry and hurts his body, or he hurts his body due to other extreme mood swings, he is the one who can persuade the emperor to be obedient, check his pulse and see the doctor.
, and it’s always Fang Yiai.
Fang Xuanling sincerely said that she couldn't understand the way these two people got along.
The corner of Li Chengqian's mouth twitched, he raised his eyes and looked at Li Shimin, thinking that his father was treating Fang Yiai so differently and clearly wanted to make Fang Yiai feel angry.
No, that time Fang Yiai was obedient and just took the lead. There was no time when he didn't give it back at the end and choked his father for a few words. Why didn't his father have a long memory?
In the past, it was just in the palace, but now it is in court, and all the officials are listening and watching.
Fang Yiai ran out of the court hall, with a proud smile on her lips, looking back at the majestic Chao, flicking off the non-existent dust on the hem of her body jacket, saying hello to the small forest outside the hall, and returned relaxedly
Go home.
Strictly abide by the emperor's will, go home and stay in confinement.
Hahaha, since the emperor said that he was not allowed to leave the palace without his order, until Li Shimin issued an edict to lift the ban, he no longer had to run to the military camp at home and could spend time with his wife and children at home.
Thinking of the leisurely days ahead, Fang Yiai became more and more relaxed, and even hummed a ditty happily. Regardless of the sideways glances of the palace guards along the way, she leisurely led the horse and returned to Fang Mansion to fight with Mrs. Fang.
He greeted me and returned to his mansion without any worries.
"Mom, the second uncle just said that he was punished by the emperor and ordered to be banned from the mansion. He cannot leave the mansion without the emperor's summons. Is it true or false? I look at the second uncle's appearance. He doesn't want to be punished by the emperor at all?" Niu Saihua
Some people who couldn't react looked at the direction in which Fang Yiai disappeared, and asked Mrs. Fang who also had twitching eyes.
"It should be true. I just got scolded, was fined some salary, grounded at home, and didn't get beaten. It's not a big loss. It just allowed their family to reunite at home relaxedly. Yi Ai is a tolerant person, so it's okay."
Mrs. Fang rubbed her aching head and said helplessly. Even answering Niu Saihua's question could be regarded as convincing herself.
Looking at Fang Yiai, he seemed to be fine. Mrs. Fang was not worried about him, but she was a little worried about Fang Xuanling. She wondered if Li Shimin would call him to scold him. Before Yiai fell into the eyes of the emperor, the emperor was in a bad mood.
When things go well, Fang Xuanling is always the one who gets in trouble.
I heard Fang Xuanling mention it before that Fang Yiai choked Li Shimin, but it was all in private. Li Shimin did not lose any face, so he never asked Fang Xuanling to vent his anger.
This time it was different. Fang Yiai choked back her words directly in front of the civil and military officials of the court. It was impossible for the emperor to lose his temper and scold Fang Xuanling again. Then Fang Xuanling would deal with Fang Yiai again. Then
Fang Yiai was a bit miserable.
Although there was a commotion in court, Li Shimin still pardoned Hou Zanjun and his wife, concubines and children as planned. However, because Hou Junji's crime was too serious, he had to bear with regret and demoted Hou Zanjun to a commoner.
people.
Yes, he was just demoted to a commoner. This made many people who had been bullied by Hou Junji become suspicious. Did the emperor forget to add the words "never hire" at the end?
Has Li Shimin really forgotten?
Of course not. Although he was angry with what Hou Junji did, he also cherished Hou Zanjun's ability to lead the army on the water. However, due to the things Hou Junji caused, he had not mentioned Hou Zanjun again in recent years, but he did not want to let him
My son will miss such a good water general in the future.
Hou Zanjun's skills were actually acquired through hard work in the Jiangnan navy. Even if Li Shimin was killed, he would not admit that Fang Yiai's training contributed to Hou Zanjun's skills.
To prevent Fang Yiai from getting proud of herself.
Of course, when he issued the decree to pardon Hou Zanjun and his wife and concubines, Li Shimin would attribute the credit to Li Xiaogong, the prince of Hejian County who had been loyal and diligent with him through life and death.
All the property of the Hou family was transferred to the national treasury. Although Hou Zanjun and his family were pardoned, they basically left the prison of the Ministry of Punishment.
Fang Yiai sent someone to negotiate with Yuchi Baolin to buy the house where Hou Zanjun's family temporarily settled. Of course, when letting Hou Zanjun move in, he did not forget to mention Li Chengqian's kindness in front of him, which was regarded as an advance preparation for Li Chengqian to use him again in the future.
, a great and solid foundation.
Just hearing the negative and decadent look of Hou Zanjun described by Fang Qi when he came back made Fang Yiai somewhat sad and angry, but more of a helpless feeling.
Seven days later, except for the pardoned Hou Zanjun family, all the involved Hou family members, including Xiao Yang Fan, as well as the half-dead Helan Chushi couple and their children, were all taken to the vegetable market and immediately executed.
