Chapter 229 Chapter 229 Please kill the nine tribes
However, Hou Junji seemed not satisfied with this result.
He laughed wildly and said: "Li Er, don't pretend to be fake. Do you think I don't know what kind of person you, Li Shimin, are?"
"In the Xuanwu Sect incident, it was obviously enough to kill the crown prince and the third prince, but you ordered us to secretly kill their entire family."
"You won't even let go of a swaddling baby!"
As soon as these words came out, Li Shimin's expression suddenly changed.
This matter is forever taboo to him and no one can mention it.
"Someone, drag him out and kill him in the afternoon!"
The guards quickly dragged Li Shimin away.
Hou Junji was still laughing crazily.
"Li Shimin, Li Shimin, the more you are afraid of something, the more it will come!"
"One day, everything you usurped will be in vain!"
Li Shimin's face was ashen, and his brows were so furrowed that they were almost twisted into knots.
Looking at all the ministers in the court, they all lowered their heads deeply and did not dare to make any sound.
Just kidding, there is no one in the Tang Dynasty who doesn't know what "feat" Li Shimin has accomplished.
But knowing it is one thing, if you dare to speak out, you are seeking death.
"The criminals and thieves are so rampant!"
Li Shimin couldn't bear it anymore and said angrily: "I have ordered that the Lord Hou has committed a heinous crime and will punish the nine tribes!"
"Your Majesty is wise!"
Wei Zheng was the first to stand up and express his agreement.
He originally did not want Li Shimin to do such an unfair thing.
Hou Junji is one of the main conspirators. If the nine tribes are not punished, then the law will be completely messed up.
Hearing this, Li Shimin cut Wei Zheng's eyes hard and said displeasedly: "Wei Zheng, since you are so active, you should be solely responsible for the execution."
"I accept the decree!"
Muchuan listened on the side, but couldn't help but mourned for Hou Junji.
Even if you die, you still have to be executed by the enemy. I'm afraid you won't be able to live in peace even if you die.
When leaving the court, Muchuan was stopped by Wang De.
Li Shimin wanted to meet Muchuan alone again.
Muchuan was already used to this.
Arriving at Li Shimin's palace, Li Shimin still looked angry.
It seemed that the nonsense words Hou Junji posted in the court had indeed offended Li Shimin.
"Your Majesty, Minister Mu is here."
Seeing Muchuan coming, Li Shimin took a deep breath and forced out a smile.
"Mu Aiqing, sit down."
"Thank you, please sit down!"
Li Shimin smiled and said: "Your medical skills are really good. Even the medicine king Sun Simiao couldn't cure the queen's disease, but you can actually cure it."
"It is truly a blessing from God to have a genius like you in our Tang Dynasty!"
Hearing this, Muchuan couldn't help but complain.
I didn't see you praising me like this when I helped you to quell the rebellion. Instead, I treated your wife's illness. Your attitude changed so much.
Of course, even though he was complaining in his heart, Muchuan quickly dismissed it with his mouth.
"I don't dare to take it. I just happen to be good at treating strange diseases and hypochondriasis. I can't compare with Sun Yaowang."
Of course this is just modesty, Muchuan has god-level medical skills.
Not to mention Sun Simiao, even Hua Tuo, Bian Que and others combined, their medical skills are not comparable to Muchuan's.
Li Shimin smiled and shook his head, and did not bother Muchuan about the matter.
"Mu Aiqing, tell me, whatever reward you want, I will grant it to you!"
Later, he had to ask Muchuan to treat the queen, so Li Shimin naturally wanted to give him some sweetness.
I thought that Muchuan would shirk as before, so Li Shimin's words were just a show of words. As for what reward he would give Muchuan, he had already thought about it.
It is time for Muchuan to take the position of Minister of the Ministry of Finance.
However, Muchuan's opening stunned Li Shimin.
Muchuan said sincerely: "Your Majesty, I have nothing to ask for, but I have been in love with Princess Changle for a long time, and I want to go to your Majesty to renew my engagement with Princess Changle."
"this"
This time, Li Shimin can no longer be punished.
You're not following the rules at all. I'm just trying to be polite, but you're really making a fool of yourself.
The most important thing is that Muchuan's request is not excessive at all.
After all, he had been engaged to Princess Changle as early as when Muchuan reached the top of the imperial examination.
Logically speaking, Princess Changle should marry Muchuan.
However, because of the queen, Li Shimin had to cancel the engagement between Princess Changle and Muchuan.
In short, Muchuan's request to resume the engagement was just a complaint.
Li Shimin said helplessly: "It's not that I don't want to, it's just that I have promised to marry Princess Changle to Tibet."
Hearing this, Muchuan narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Then did your Majesty ask the princess if she would like to marry far away from Tibet?"
"Absurd! How can any parents ask their children about the important matter of marriage?"
Li Shimin looked displeased and said: "Mu Aiqing, you are also the number one scholar of the Tang Dynasty, but you don't even understand these Confucian etiquette?"
Muchuan suppressed the indignation in his heart and just apologized with a smile.
"Changle cannot marry you. Since you are devoted to being the Prince Consort, let Wencheng marry you."
Li Shimin thought for a while and then made up his mind.
Muchuanren was almost dumbfounded. He was going for Li Lizhi. Why did you betroth Princess Wencheng to you?
However, Li Shimin seemed a little angry and did not want to waste time with Muchuan anymore, so he asked Wang De to drive Muchuan away.
Muchuan inexplicably got engaged to Princess Wencheng.
You must know that Princess Wencheng is not Li Shimin's daughter, but the daughter of Li Tangyuan's clan.
The reason why she was called Princess Wencheng was purely because Li Shimin gave her the title. The purpose was to fool the Tibetan people and make them really think that she was married to a princess.
However, because of Muchuan's intrusion, Li Shimin changed his mind and replaced Princess Wencheng who was supposed to marry Tubo with Princess Changle.
Although Li Shimin regretted a little now, after all, Jun Wuxi said that, especially in the international arena, even if he regretted deeply, he could only cruelly let Princess Changle marry her.
At worst, we will find a way to destroy Tubo in the future and then bring Changle back.
In short, Muchuan's trip not only failed to solve Princess Changle's problem, but instead caused him another peach blossom.
It sounds like it's a loss with blood, but in fact it's a loss to my grandma's family.
After leaving the palace, Muchuan planned to go directly to Qin Qiong's house.
Although the emperor chose his wife over his old subordinates, Muchuan still didn't want Qin Qiong to be treated as a consumable and decided to treat Qin Qiong to at least ensure that Qin Qiong could survive until she returned to the country.
As long as Qin Qiong can survive until she returns home, Muchuan will have a way to bring her back to life.
On the way, Muchuan noticed that the streets were crowded with people.
After careful inquiry, Muchuan realized that the common people were joining in the fun to watch the beheading.
Due to the extremely bad nature of the rebellion, the place of beheading was changed from the execution ground to the streets.
The purpose is to warn the world that as long as you rebel, you will end up like this.
Since he was on the way, Muchuan also planned to see if Hou Junji would die like this.
After all, he is a subordinate of the false emperor Li Chengdao.
