At that time, Li Kuanchu returned to Chang'an and was imprisoned in Dali Temple. The old officials of Xihai Road spoke up one after another, and Qibi Heli was one of them. When they helped him, they did not know his identity, and they did not ask for anything in return.

.

Now, he is in a difficult situation. No one dares to speak for him, and they are worried that he will be labeled as a "traitor". But Li Kuan is not afraid. To be honest, he knows Qibi. He is a real man who is loyal and values ​​friendship. He is willing to

Guaranteeing one's wealth and one's life is considered reciprocating love.

And Qibi Heli in the class was also moved by King Chu's righteousness. He was not a fool. Of course he knew that King Chu, who had just returned to the royal family, would keep silent and cause less trouble. I vouched for him.

If something happens, even as a prince, it will be difficult for him to escape unscathed.

Qibi Heli, whose eyes were red, immediately walked out of the class and kowtowed heavily to Li Shimin. He didn't stop until his forehead was covered with blood.

"Your Majesty, we are all made of flesh and blood. One person only has one. Who doesn't cherish his own life! But there are some things that are more important than life."

"When I and the King of Chu were trapped in a tight siege and on the verge of extinction, His Highness once said in front of the battle: Jade can be broken but its whiteness cannot be changed; bamboo can be burned but its joints cannot be destroyed; even if the body dies, the name can be hung on the bamboo and silk."

"Although His Highness is young, he is a generous man. I was once a general and was pardoned by Your Majesty to survive. How can I betray the Lord's kindness?"

"I also married my eldest daughter and became a relative. I will risk my life to repay your majesty's kindness. To prove my loyalty, I am willing to die to prove it. But your majesty, please don't put me and the association leader into the same party."<

/p>

The rabbit dies and the fox grieves, Qibi's words are profound, and Li Shimin is also quite moved. Just as he is about to wake up Qibi and comfort him, Wei Ting, the Minister of the Huangmen and the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, sighs.

His sigh was really loud. How could a general with such a fierce temper like Qi Bi be so provoked? Just as he was about to die to show his determination, Li Kuan stepped forward and held his shoulders.

His eyes signaled him not to move rashly, and then he turned to look at Wei Ting and said lightly: "If I want to lead the yellow dog with Ruofu, we will go out to Cai Dongmen to chase the cunning rabbit. How can we get it!"

As soon as these words came out, Wei Ting's face turned blue and white, which made him feel embarrassed. He thought to himself, this King of Chu is so powerful!

But once he had said it, he could not take it back, so Wei Ting could only bite the bullet and asked: "Is Your Highness threatening me?"

"Threat? Wei Shangshu, you are right, Xiao Wang is not as lawless as you think." As he spoke, he increased the strength of his hands and pressed the Qibi hard to prevent him from getting up.

Then he continued: "When Xiao Wang was young, he heard Prince Yin praising Shangshu as Jingzhao Weishi, the most talented scholar in Xiaoyao Gongfang, a scholar of heaven, and his childhood friend."

"When you became an official, Qi Bi was originally from Jieli, and they were both surrendered ministers. We are both destitute people from the end of the world, so why bother to force each other so hard?"

Li Kuan has moved out all the buildings built. What else can Wei Ting say? If he says that the old master is not good, he will inevitably be despised by others; if he says that the saint has returned to his destiny and obeys the righteousness, he will not be called a treacherous person.

Unable to linger any longer, Wei Ting could only wave his sleeves and retreat to the class. Li Kuan also smiled disdainfully, then raised his wat and said: "I second the proposal of the Prime Minister."

As soon as Li Kuan said this, Chu Suiliang, Yu Zhining, Zhang Xingcheng, Gao Jifu, Ma Zhou and other ministers and ministers who had the same opinion came out to echo him.

Among these people, there are people like Chu Suiliang and Ma Zhou who are fair-minded and upright ministers like Chu Suiliang and Ma Zhou, and there are also opportunistic people who are good at observing the situation and do not want to get too entangled in a situation that is destined to be useless.

Didn't you look at Wei Zheng, who was always nitpicking, and didn't say anything? Your Majesty and Fang Xuanling have already talked about this, why should you insist on it anymore!

Of course, Li Shimin had always "conquered people with virtue." Even though it was the general trend, he still asked the officials again if they had any other opinions.

Changsun Wuji held the wat board in his arms and said seriously: "Your Majesty, the ten and the fingers are not evenly aligned, let alone others."

After hearing this, Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction. The expulsion order seemed to be settled once and for all, and it could also put an end to the rebellion of the alien races. In the heat of the moment, and unable to control his emotions, Li Shimin might accept this advice.

But after calming down, Li Shimin felt that there was no need to abandon the "Han and Hu family" policy just because of the association rate.

Li Shimin asked those ministers and ministers who submitted the book to read Li Si's "Order of Remonstrance and Expulsion of Guests" and appreciate the last two paragraphs.

The article says: Now the head of Guizhou has been abandoned to support the enemy's country, but the guests have been invited to join the princes, so that the people of the world will retreat and dare not go westward, and will not be able to enter the Qin Dynasty. This is what is called "borrowing the invaders to steal grain".

The husband's goods were not produced in Qin, but there are many treasures; the scholars were not produced in Qin, but there are many loyal ones. Now we drive away guests to benefit the enemy's country, and harm the people to benefit the country.

Dangerous and unavailable.

"The Qi Bi is like a stone in my heart and will never betray me."

"If I employ people, in terms of the Hu and Han Dynasties, wouldn't I become the master of bias? Our Tang Dynasty is open to all rivers and can accommodate loyal ministers and generals such as Qibi. Don't mention such words again."

"In addition, I will release Ashina Simo and Ashina Zhong. I will reward you with two thousand gold coins and five hundred bolts of silk. Qibi, She'er and other generals will be rewarded with a thousand gold coins."

The emperor's kindness moved Qibi, She'er and other generals so much that they bowed to the ground and swore to heaven that they would be loyal to His Majesty to the death and would rather die than change.

Li Shimin was also very conciliatory and asked the Hu generals to return to work without courtesy. Then he asked the ministers: "The prime minister is right, people can only be divided into loyal and traitors, not clans."

"In recent years, life has become better, and some officials have begun to slack off, and some even regard the king's law as child's play. I have warned you so many times, but no one can listen."

"Okay, I'd like to see if it's their necks that are tough, or my sword that's sharp!" After speaking, Li Shimin waved his hand, and Wang De, the chamberlain's chief chamberlain, asked for another imperial edict.

The edict said: I started in the army, relying on the hard work of all my ministers, and the blessing of fate. Since then, I have been working hard day and night, lest I accidentally miss a step and bring down the people of the world.

Today, when the country was first established, the monarch and his ministers were united in their efforts to safeguard the world. However, at this time, extravagant behavior appeared and corruption gradually emerged. If this continues, wouldn't it be like repeating the mistakes of the Sui Dynasty!

I know that I am responsible for neglecting inspection, but the world is too big and small to be investigated by one person. Now I have Baiqisi and Zuowuhou Youyi Mansion, and set up Baiqisi Guards with the same rank as all the guards. I have given the power of Suzhi Guards to patrol and arrest. Xu Ju found out his misdeeds, impeached hundreds of officials, and ordered them to be imprisoned.

The King of Chu, Li Kuan, was appointed as the General of Hundred Cavalry Guards, and Zhai Changsun was appointed as the General of Hundred Cavalry Guards. He led the left Qian Niu Guard General to command the Hundred Cavalry Guards and cleanse the officialdom.

"Your Majesty Li Kuan/Zhai Changsun accepted the decree and thanked His Majesty for your kindness!"

As soon as this imperial edict came out, the ministers in the palace understood that the emperor was trying to rectify the officialdom because of the chaos caused by the ruthless generals! Moreover, the chief officials were mainly cruel officials, and the three law ministers were supplementary. This was going to cause trouble!

As soon as Wei Zheng raised the wat tablet, Li Shimin immediately added: "I know that you want to tell the story of Yi Zong and Ning Cheng. But I am not in the mood to listen to the story today."
