Li Zhi has high blood pressure, but after taking Li Qinzai’s folk prescription, his health is now much better, and he rarely suffers from the old problem of dizziness again.
But Li Zhi, who should be taboo, is still very careful. He is not a person who is willing to die. He risked his own life just for the sake of food and food. He was finally reborn as an emperor. Who can explain to him if he died too early?
Li Zhi ate a lot of the beef cooked by Li Qinzai today, which was a bit excessive, but he didn't drink much wine, which was a pity for his life.
Today, the emperor and his ministers played against each other. Li Qinzai's words gave Li Zhi determination. Once he made up his mind, Li Zhi suddenly became very happy.
Li Qinzai saw that Cui Sheng had put down his writing to sort out the records of the memorial. It was obvious that the memorial between the emperor and his ministers was over, so he resigned to Li Zhi.
After walking out of the palace gate, the slightly chilly autumn wind blew, and Li Qinzai's mind suddenly sobered up a little.
After scratching his head, Li Qinzai murmured: "What did I do when I entered the palace today?"
Then Li Qinzai stamped his foot violently: "Damn it, you forgot about business!"
Then Li Qinzai turned around and entered Anren Hall again. Li Zhi was about to leave, and the two of them bumped into each other inside the hall door.
After a muffled sound of heads hitting each other, the monarch and his minister each squatted down with their heads in their hands.
Li Zhi covered his head and sighed: "If it weren't for you, the guards would be shouting to catch the assassin right now..."
Li Qinzai also covered his head and said: "It's a pity that Your Majesty is not a woman, otherwise there would have been a tragic love story..."
"What are you doing here again?"
Li Qinzai immediately ignored his head and said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, I want to express my grievance!"
"Why are you complaining? Who has wronged you?" Li Zhi said angrily.
"My cousin Li Jingye was framed and imprisoned for no reason. I ask your Majesty to make the decision."
Li Zhi sighed and said: "I have heard about Li Jingye. The British soldier has made brilliant achievements in military affairs throughout his life, and I don't want to see the Li family be humiliated."
"But Li Jingye's scandal has caused too much noise. In the past few days, there have been as many court officials as crucian carp crossing the river to impeach him. I have ordered Xu Youxiang to suppress the impeachment memorial, but there are still some people who will not let go at the court meeting.
he."
Li Qinzai asked: "Does your Majesty believe that my cousin is innocent?"
Li Zhi was silent for a moment and said: "The affair between Li Jingye and the prisoner's wife has been confirmed. As for whether he murdered the prisoner and his wife to silence them, the case has been handed over to the Dali Temple of the Ministry of Punishment for trial."
"I have never doubted the Li family's family style. Li Jingye might have loosened his belt, but he couldn't commit murder. Moreover, the biggest suspicion about this case is that the prisoner's wife actually wrote "Li Jingye" on the wall before she died.
A dedicated name, haha..."
"Not to mention whether the prisoner's wife is literate or not, even if she is literate, she happened to be able to finish writing Li Jingye's name in one breath before passing away. This is so artificial..."
Li Qinzai said happily: "Your Majesty has a keen eye, which I admire. It seems that Your Majesty also knows that Li Jingye has been wronged?"
Li Zhi nodded: "I believe that Li Jingye was wronged, but... there is no proof, and he can't defend himself. Li Jingye's situation is still very troublesome. The people in the court are angry and talking about it. I can't openly show favoritism, so Li Jingye is sent to the Dali Temple prison."
I promised it."
Li Qinzai heard the meaning of Li Zhi's words. Li Zhi also believed that Li Jingye was wronged. But the problem was that all kinds of evidence pointed to Li Jingye. Even if the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple held a joint trial, they could only speak with evidence, and Li Jingye
But he was unable to produce evidence in his own defense.
Li Qinzai couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. Could it be that he could only watch Li Jingye being convicted?
Li Zhi was silent for a moment and then said: "Not only Li Jingye, Baiqisi also reported another news to me yesterday, which is related to your grandfather."
Li Qinzai's heart tightened: "What's the news?"
"Baiqisi inquired about the rumors in the Chang'an market. In the 20th year of Zhenguan, General Li ordered General Li to appease Xue Yantuo Yinte Wushu Khan according to the order of the late emperor, and also recruited Dumozhi, the nephew of Zhenzhu Khan."
"However, there are rumors that in order to increase his military merits, General Li privately ordered his troops to massacre five thousand people and plunder countless properties from various tribes in Xueyantuo..."
Li Qinzai opened his eyes wide in shock.
Killing and surrendering is a serious crime, a very heinous crime, and no amount of great merit can offset it.
It is also disgraceful to use troops to plunder wealth. Both of these things are very fatal, because there are two negative teaching materials standing there clearly.
During the Zhenguan period, Hou Junji was ordered to pacify the Gaochang Kingdom. Even though the ruler of the country had surrendered, Hou Junji still boldly ordered the surrender and killed all the people in the capital of Gaochang Kingdom.
Also during the Zhenguan period, Li Jing, the god of war, attacked the Turks. After the war, some court officials exposed Li Jing for plundering money with his troops.
The fate of Hou Junji and Li Jing is well known. Hou Junji died in rebellion, and Li Jing closed his doors and refused to participate in any military affairs after the Pingdong Turks.
Now, someone in Chang'an City actually spread rumors about Li Ji's fault for the same reason. Although this matter was only spread among the people, it was only a matter of time before it was brought to court.
Li Qinzai suddenly felt angry. Grandpa's guess was correct. Sure enough, someone was targeting the British government. Li Jingye's eucalyptus was just an appetizer before the meal. The rumors related to Li Ji were the real killer move.
"Your Majesty, there must be someone with evil intentions and malicious intent to frame this matter." Li Qinzai said in a deep voice.
Li Zhi smiled: "I am not an ignorant person. Of course I know that some people want to harm General Li. Do you think I am stupid when you bring out what happened more than 20 years ago?"
Then Li Zhi sighed again and said: "But the words of the people are worth the money, and the words of the people are terrible. The old general has devoted his whole life for the Tang Dynasty. I don't want to see the old general's innocence being tainted by others when he is old, so I have issued an order."
, order Baiqisi detective to investigate and find out the culprit who spread the rumors."
"Two incidents in succession have implicated your Li family. Obviously there is someone behind the scenes. I cannot take sides openly. Jing Chu, there are some things that you have to investigate on your own."
Li Qinzai suddenly said: "If I take action to investigate, there will be many inconveniences, and my temper is a bit irritable when encountering trouble..."
Li Zhi glanced at him and said: "You are an arrogant and domineering dude, so your behavior is naturally different. You might as well say so."
"Ahem, yes, what I mean is that if I do something irrational, please show me your kindness..."
Li Zhi smiled: "Don't worry, I'm very sensible."
…………
After walking out of the Tai Chi Palace, Li Qinzai's face was gloomy. After chatting with Li Zhi, he finally determined that someone in Chang'an City had not only plotted against him, but also against the entire Duke's Mansion.
The enemy hiding in the dark is the most terrifying, Li Qinzai must become serious.
Fortunately, Li Zhi had just agreed to temporarily lend him Baiqisi, who could help him investigate suspicious persons and clear the British government's innocence as appropriate.
Liu Asi, Lao Wei and other tribes came up to him and were about to help Li Qin load into the carriage, but Li Qinzai reached out to stop him.
"Ah Si, please find Song Sen yourself and ask him to help me check a few people."
