"Your Majesty, it was all an accident and a misunderstanding."
Hou Junji pushed 265 and said it was all an accident.
Su Lie couldn't help but shouted, "Hou Junji, you straight bastard, you don't know the identity of Su Wang's forbidden army? Do you dare to say that Su Wang deliberately collided with your honor guard?"
It all happened because your entourage was too arrogant and domineering. When your prime minister went out and the people gave way, and some people couldn't avoid it, your entourage whipped them wantonly. The people were whipped and had to swallow their anger. But the horse was frightened and ran around in pain, but
Almost trampling the people to death,
Su Wang was in a hurry to save someone, but you wanted to beat him up. I personally came forward to plead for mercy. Not only did you ignore the friendship of the same family, but you scolded me and said that I was deliberately relying on the power of Li Pushe and Wu Linggong to suppress you.
He also said that he wanted to flog Su Wang with a cane, and said that he had to wait to be killed with a cane."
"Your Majesty, I have pity that Su Wang was a refugee orphan at the age of ten. He did not die in the troubled times of Emperor Sui Yang. Now he has made great achievements in the Northern Expedition, went to Beijing to meet the saints, and was transferred to the Imperial Guard. He is waiting to be rewarded for his merits, awarded honors and promotions, but the result is...
On Chang'an Avenue, he was deliberately beaten to death by Hou Junji. He hit the back of the head with a stick so hard that his bones were shattered and his brains were knocked out.
I ask your Majesty to make the decision for Su Wang!"
Su Lie got emotional and yelled at Hou Junji, calling him a straight mother and a thief, and a thief and your mother. He spat out all kinds of unsavory words, but the emperor did not stop him.
Finally, when Su Lie wanted to beat Hou Junji, the emperor slapped the table.
"Presumptuous, what kind of place do you think this is?"
"Isn't it enough for generals to fight each other on the streets of Chang'an? They also have to duel in my Wude Palace?"
Hou Junji's face turned gloomy,
When he was on the street, he did point at Su Lie and scold him. Not only did he not give Su Lie face, he even scolded Li Jing and Wu Huaiyu by name.
I was really happy at that time,
And he seemed to have indeed said that he would kill Su Wang with a stick.
At that time, he really didn't know that Su Wang was Su Lie's adopted son, nor did he know that he was the commander of the imperial army who was transferred to the capital at the same time as the Eighth Grade Youtun Guard. He only thought that he was just one of Su Lie's servants.
I regret it now, but I can only refuse to admit it.
Qin Qiong shouted and asked Hou Junji, "Even if someone rushes into the honor guard, do you dare to kill him?"
"Qin Pingzhang, I just wanted to punish him with a stick, and I didn't want to kill him."
"You said in public that you wanted to be killed with a stick, and you still dared to quibble? Do you really think that you can cover up the sky with one hand, and those onlookers at that time didn't dare to tell the truth?"
······
The matter is very clear. No matter how Hou Junji tried to quibble, he did indiscriminately beat Su Wang with a stick. He even directly said he wanted to kill him with a stick. In front of Su Lie, he also scolded Li Jing, Wu Huaiyu, etc.
He insulted the prime minister, killed the captain of the imperial army with a stick, and even had a fight with the general in the street.
"I am wronged. I did not fight with Su Dingfang. It was Su Dingfang who pounced on me like a mad dog and beat me, but I did not fight back."
Su Lie pointed at his face to show everyone that there were several bruises on it.
"Do you still dare to tell lies with your eyes open in front of the saints and the public? Hou Junji, you are deceiving me!"
"That was touched by my guards when they dragged you away, not by me." Hou Junji argued.
In the palace.
Everyone looked at Hou Junji as if they were stupid.
He's already a fucking prime minister, and he doesn't even have a decent government. Even if you're dissatisfied with Wu Huaiyu, you can't do such stupid things.
Even Wei Zheng, who had always strongly recommended him and even accepted him as his student, couldn't help but shake his head and sigh when he saw his current state.
Hou Junji might be jealous of Wu Huaiyu, but unfortunately he was also angry with Wu Huaiyu. When he encountered this incident on the street yesterday, he might have thought of taking the opportunity to humiliate Su Lie and get sullen, but there was no way he could do anything like this.
"I'm very disappointed!"
"Hou Junji, as the prime minister, you are so good at killing, whether it is the commander of the imperial army who made great achievements in the Northern Expedition, or an ordinary citizen, or even a slave, you should not be like this."
"Su Dingfang, you also disappoint me. We have just achieved great success in the Northern Expedition, and the celebration banquet has just ended, and you dare to beat the prime minister in the street,"
"You have a prime minister and a general who are lawless. Do you still have the laws of the court? Do you still have a saint like me?"
Li Shimin, who became more and more angry as he talked, looked at those two people and was extremely disappointed, especially for Hou Junji.
Hou Junji was his confidant, his childhood playmate, and they had fought side by side for more than ten years since they started the army. He had high hopes for Hou Junji. Not only was he as capable of fighting and daring as Yuchi Gong, but he also dared to imitate him.
, unlike Yuchi Gong who was so domineering, he could offend all the old and new ministers in the court in a short period of time.
Hou Junji could understand the holy will, obey the arrangements, and dare to attack and fight. Therefore, Li Shimin has been vigorously importanting Hou Junji in recent years. He asked him to study the art of war under Li Jing first. Later, he wanted to study with Wei Zheng, and Li Shimin also went out of his way to help him.
Opened up a conversation with Wei Zheng.
Not to mention, let him go all the way to prime minister.
But this guy now actually has the same bad habits as Yu Chigong.
Yuchi Gong is better at fighting and rushing than Hou Junji, but he is also more likely to make mistakes and cannot be reused at all. I thought Hou Junji could be trained.
"Hou Junji and Su Dingfang are generals and ministers, but their words and deeds are out of character, and their eyes, law, and discipline are all guilty of being disrespectful to the emperor.
Remove all official positions at the same time and go home to think about your mistakes behind closed doors!"
Remove from office, retain the title, and go home.
This punishment is very severe, but it is somewhat troubling, and there is no intention to pursue the case to the end.
This matter ends everywhere.
For Su Wang, Li Shimin ordered him to be buried in a dignified manner, and even ordered him to be given a posthumous title of a fifth-rank official to give generous support to Su Wang's wife and children.
The two men of Hou Junji who beat people to death by beating them on the back of the head with canes were sentenced to Chang'an in Lingnan, and their wives and children were also exiled together. Their property was confiscated and given to the Su Wang family.
Hou Junji knelt down to receive the order,
"I am willing to compensate Su Wang's wife and children with a thousand pieces of silk."
Li Shimin didn't want to see him again and waved him to get out.
"Su Lie, you should do some self-reflection at home. When something goes wrong, there is still the court and the king's law. Since you have just made great achievements in the Northern Expedition, I will not go into further details and step back."
The emperor angrily threw away his sleeves and left,
The royal case in the palace fell to the ground,
The results of today's joint trial by the three agencies are somewhat unexpected, but also seem to be reasonable.
"Hou Junji!"
Li Jing and Wu Huaiyu simultaneously stopped the guy who was about to leave in despair.
Li Jing glanced at Wu Huaiyu and walked straight to Hou Junji.
"Shoot, right servant!" Hou Junji crossed his arms at Li Jing with an ugly look on his face.
"Hmph, the teacher doesn't even want to shout?"
"teacher."
Li Jing waved his hand and looked at this tall and burly guy, "I know that you were not really willing to become my master to learn the art of war from the beginning. You have been my disciple for several years and you have never really regarded me as your master.
Your behavior on Chang'an Street yesterday, insulting the master and beating the senior brother, is an act of bullying the master and destroying the ancestors,"
Hou Junji still wants to make excuses.
Li Jing suddenly raised his right hand and slapped him hard.
The applause was crisp.
Li Jing's palm was very big, and his hands were still covered with calluses from martial arts training. The force of this palm was also very strong.
Snapped!
Hou Junzhang's face was burning with pain. Even though he was thick-skinned and thick-skinned, he was so slapped that stars appeared in his eyes.
He widened his eyes and looked at Li Jing in disbelief.
This is the Wude Hall of Tai Chi Palace,
The prime ministers and officials from the Three Law Departments were all there.
Li Jing slapped him in public?
Li Jing's eyes were as bright as a torch, and he looked directly at Hou Junji, "This slap is for you who deceived your teacher and destroyed your ancestors. After this slap, the friendship between you and my teacher and student will be severed from today on. From now on, I will no longer have you as my student."
, you don’t have me as your teacher anymore, we are just strangers,”
Hou Junji touched the slapped face,
Gritting his teeth and trying his best to endure it,
After a long while, he gritted his teeth and uttered a few good words, "Okay, okay, okay, I'll treat this slap as all repaid."
Hou Junji turned to leave.
"Hou, please wait a moment."
It was Wu Huaiyu who stopped him.
Wu Huaiyu stepped forward,
Hou Junji took two steps back alertly, "What are you going to do? This is above the palace!"
Wu Huaiyu took a few steps forward and stood in front of him.
The two were about the same height, but Hou Junji was stronger and taller, with a body like a wrestler and a bear-like belly under his jade belt.
With his full beard and beard, Hou Junji, who is in his early thirties, still looks quite imposing.
Wu Huaiyu is also very tall, but his figure is relatively toned. He has a lot of muscles on his body, but he is not so protruding, especially his belly, which has several abdominal muscles. This makes Wu Huaiyu look awkward standing in front of Hou Junji.
Like a handsome scholar and husband.
But he looked directly at Hou Junji, but Hou Junji did not dare to look at him.
"You, please don't mess around."
Hou Junji regretted it very much. Now he offended the emperor and dismissed all his official positions. Now he is neither the prime minister, nor the minister of the Ministry of War, nor the general of the right guard.
He is just a Duke of Lu,
He didn't want to mess around with Wu Huaiyu anymore, and he couldn't afford to anger the emperor again at this time.
But it was obvious that Wu Huaiyu had no intention of letting him go.
"You scolded me in the street yesterday, and you scolded me again in front of me."
Wei Zheng came over at this time,
"Erlang, be patient."
Hou Junji was his student. Although he now felt that Hou Junji was a big idiot, he was the emperor and he could not let them cause trouble anymore. This was not only to save Hou Junji, the idiot, but also to protect Wu Huaiyu.
"It was my fault yesterday, and I will apologize to the Duke of Jin."
Hou Junji took a few steps back and said, "I am willing to offer an 800-acre village in Xianyang to make amends to the Duke of Jin." After saying this, Hou Junji gritted his teeth and held back, bowing his head to Wu Huaiyu to admit his mistake.
.
To show his sincerity, he bent down very low.
A real man must be able to bend and stretch. He was even prepared. Even if Wu Huaiyu slapped him, he would admit it and never fight back. He even half expected Wu Huaiyu to slap him. In this way, Wu Huaiyu would immediately become a fool. He also
Can win some sympathy from the emperor.
But the next moment,
Wu Huaiyu did not slap him with a big slap,
Instead, he quickly stepped forward, then pressed his head hard, with his knees on his head,
Because he wanted Wu Huaiyu to slap him, Hou Junji bowed his head seriously and admitted his mistake without any defense.
It's worth a slap.
Asking for a slap.
Unexpectedly, Wu Huaiyu didn't slap him, but hit his head and knees.
It was fast and fierce, just like yesterday when Su Lie pounced on Hou Junji and beat him violently.
Snapped.
Wei Zheng was standing nearby, watching from close range as Wu Huaiyu rushed forward and slammed his knee into Hou Junji's chin, making an astonishing sound.
Then Wu Huaiyu hooked left and right, followed by a straight punch, followed by an elbow strike, and then a knee strike.
