Chapter 1,191 Everyone betrays and separates from relatives
Wei Yuancheng tapped his fingers subconsciously on the coffee table in front of him, closed his eyes slightly, and concentrated on his thoughts.
Wei Yuantong thought for a while and said: "Brother, although Changsun Chong is extremely dangerous... but in the final analysis, it is our interest to bring down Fang Jun. As long as we keep a distance from Changsun Chong, we don't want to be implicated by him. Come to think of it,
It’s okay.”
He is of the same generation as Wei Yuancheng, but is much younger. He has always been extremely respectful to Wei Yuancheng and obeys his advice.
Wei Yuancheng shook his head and sighed: "Does that mean you can keep the distance by keeping a distance? Since you are caught in it, you can't look forward or backward, you must move forward." At this point, he opened his eyes, his pupils shining brightly.
However, his thin face raised slightly, and he said proudly: "It is inevitable that Your Majesty will be dissatisfied, but the source of this dissatisfaction comes from the fact that we, Jingzhao Weishi, have always been wavering between the imperial power and the Guanlong Group, and have not been willing to do our best to surrender to Your Majesty.
. Even if we want to retreat now, His Majesty has already formed an opinion in his heart, and I'm afraid it won't help. In this case, it's better to use all our strength to bring Fang Jun down completely, and avoid that vengeful mallet from turning over to us.
Retaliation, that's the real trouble."
Who doesn't know that Fang Erlang will definitely take revenge?
Moreover, this son has a violent personality and acts without scruples. If he survives beating the snake, he will definitely suffer its consequences. And it is almost conceivable that Fang Jun's revenge will be thunderous and will catch people off guard!
Then we must first bring down Fang Jun completely. At least he must be convicted of dismissal from office, seizing a title, being exiled to the army, otherwise this kid may be able to make a comeback at any time...
When it comes to talent and ability, Fang Jun is definitely one of the best among the younger generation, and there are very few who can compare with him. How can we not be resented by such a person and not make people feel uneasy and sleepless?
Wei Yuancheng's opinion is very simple. Instead of giving up and changing the family halfway, it is better to use all his strength to go all the way to avoid betraying this one, offending that one, and becoming a stranger inside and outside...
His opinion is basically Jingzhao Wei's will, and Wei Yuantong and Wei Yijie will naturally not object.
*****
At the same time, the residence of Li Xiaogong, the prince of Hejian County.
Li Xiaogong, Prince of Hejian County, Li Daozong, Prince of Jiangxia County, Emperor Gaozu's sister-in-law, Prince Consort Tong'an Princess Wang Yu, and many other members of the clan were all present.
Wang Yu is already over seventy years old, but he is still in good spirits and becomes stronger with age.
Wang Yu had a son, Wang Renbiao, who was the former governor of Qizhou. Wang Renbiao had a son, Wang Fangyi, who was the governor of Xiazhou at that time. He was brave and good at fighting and proficient in the art of war.
Wang Yu had a queen, who was the concubine of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty. There were eight people in the harem of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, namely Empress Xiao, Concubine Xiao, Chen Ting, Mrs. Chen, Mrs. Xuanhua, Mrs. Ronghua, Mrs. Cui and Queen Wang Yuzhi
Shi……
Wang Yu's nephew Wang Renyou had a daughter who married King Li Zhi of Jin Dynasty and became his princess.
It can be seen that this branch of the Wang family from Taiyuan was actually a truly famous family in the Sui and Tang Dynasties. The father was a first-class Situ of the Sui Dynasty, his wife married a Tang Dynasty princess, the daughter married a Sui Dynasty emperor, and his son was a famous general of the Tang Dynasty.
The nephew is the Duke of the country, and the granddaughter is the Empress of the Tang Dynasty in history...
It's a pity that in the original history, because the queen and the queen were unable to have children, they brought military talents into the palace and were killed, and the Wang Yu family was tragically implicated...
Wang Yu is the oldest here and occupies the first seat. He is saying in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, you want to convict Fang Jun of murder, so that the officials who secretly colluded with the Guanlong Group will be exposed. But who is Fang Jun?"
Your Majesty's close minister is also your consort, so naturally you cannot be held too accountable, so I have called you here for a brief discussion to see how to proceed."
Li Xiaogong frowned slightly.
He was not interested in Wang Yu's words...
In other words, he did not agree with His Majesty's actions.
Others may not know Fang Jun's contribution, how could Li Xiaogong not know it? Not to mention anything else, the now extremely prosperous "Eastern Datang Company" and the invincible fleet across the seven seas were all created by Fang Jun.
How could such a person be discarded like a chess piece?
Li Xiaogong is very close to Fang Jun and understands Fang Jun's character. Under the dark face that seems carefree and frank, there is a huge ambition to manage the world and benefit the people!
To ascend the stage and rule the world is Fang Jun’s ambition!
Now, this ambitious young official is charged with murder... Doesn't it mean that Fang Jun's future has been cut off with a single blow?
Moreover, although the evidence in this case is conclusive, Fang Jun never confessed and confessed. There were many doubts during the period, so it may not be without some foul play.
Your Majesty's decision was not rash...
Li Daozong looked at Li Xiaogong's gloomy face, thought for a moment, and said: "It is easy to convict Fang Jun, but if you want to reduce the guilt, it may be as difficult as climbing to the sky... Now that the Guanlong Group is operating at full strength, Fang Jun must be punished.
Even if we, the descendants of the clan, have a place in the Three Law Divisions and are dismissed from office and sent into the army, we may not be able to compete."
The "Three Law Division" was not originally the territory of the clan, and its influence was insufficient.
Wang Yu's white beard curled up and he said angrily: "So what? The world belongs to Li Tang. Is it possible that the Li family still has a say?"
Li Daozong was speechless.
Don't think it's still the pre-Sui Dynasty, okay?
If His Majesty could forcibly intervene in the judiciary by virtue of his supreme status as the emperor, how could the current situation be formed? The emperor ordered Fang Jun to be acquitted in one sentence, and those who disobeyed would be executed, and those who continued to disobey would have the nine tribes killed...
The world is different now!
The emperor repeatedly issued edicts to enhance the supervisory power of Yushitai, and the administrative power of Zhengshitang was to balance the imperial power with the power of the prime minister and the supervisory power, so that the empire's political power was in a delicate state of mutual checks and balances...
You are so old that you can't even understand the political situation. Why don't you just stay at home and wait for death? Why are you out here jumping around?
The hall was silent for a moment, no one spoke.
Wang Yu was very dissatisfied and glared at Li Xiaogong and said, "What do you mean?"
He relies on his elders and sells his elders. Naturally, he is Li Xiaogong's elder, and his words are very rude.
Li Xiaogong looked gloomy and said calmly: "It's not interesting. You can do whatever you want."
After saying that, he stood up and left.
He is the first commander-in-chief of the Tang Dynasty. He has experienced countless battles in his life. He has conquered such a great empire by following His Majesty Li Er. His pride is enough to reach the sky. How could he be willing to allow this old man who relies on his status to rely on his old age in front of him?
Wang Yu was stunned for a moment, then became furious, slapping the table and shouting: "Okay, okay, are you, Prince of Hejian County, relying on military merit and disrespecting your elders? We are all descendants of the clan, don't we care about the superiority of elders and younger ones?
?”
After hearing this, Li Xiaogong, who was walking to the door, looked back at Wang Yu who was angry and embarrassed, and said with a smile: "You also know that everyone here is a descendant of Li Tang's clan... Let me ask, which clan do you think you are?
You actually want to come and dominate us?"
When Wang Yu heard this, he almost poked his head in anger...
Isn’t the Prince Consort no longer a member of the clan?
Isn’t the Prince Consort not from the Li family?
"This is simply unreasonable. I will go and sue Li Xiaogong in front of His Majesty, and you can all serve as witnesses!"
Wang Yu yelled with a white grin.
Li Daozong curled his lips: "Well... I suddenly remembered that there are still important matters to be dealt with at Shenji Camp... You can discuss it on your own. No matter what the result is, I will comply with it."
After getting up and dusting the sleeves of his robe, Shi Shiran followed Li Xiaogong out of the lobby.
"Ahem... I suddenly remembered that there are still a lot of official duties in the yamen, so I had to take my leave now. I'm rude to you all..."
King Li Yuanjia of Han, who had been silent all this time, stood up, said something, and left.
You are here discussing how to deceive my brother-in-law. Is it possible that I have to offer suggestions?
Although the blood relatives of the clan are one family, the brother-in-law is not an outsider either...
Since His Majesty has a decree and we, as brother-in-law, can't help, we can't add insult to injury, right?
"Oh, I also remembered that I have something to deal with..."
"The Prince Consort is joking, what kind of evidence do you want us to do? We didn't see anything, we didn't hear anything..."
"It's just that the concubine of a certain family is about to give birth, and she has to go back and take care of her. Everyone, I'm sorry..."
Hurrah la la, all the descendants of Li Tang's clan left in the hall all of a sudden. Wang Yu was so angry that his face turned green and white, and his nose started to smoke!
But who told him to compete with Li Xiaogong for nothing?
Most of the clan members who followed His Majesty Li Er and fought side by side under Li Xiaogong in the past made up the majority. Do you want these people to follow you and testify against Li Xiaogong? If they don’t rush to give you a big mouth, it’s just respecting the old and loving the young.
Bar……
No one responded to Wang Yu, but no one dared to disobey His Majesty's will. Fang Jun's conviction has become a recognized matter, but the sentencing must be considered in the long run. This also depends on whether His Majesty communicates with the Guanlong Group and other powerful groups.
, it also depends on the outcome of the multi-party game between the "three judges" in the court.
Anyway, Fang Jun is now considered a traitor, and almost all forces agree to convict him...
