Chapter 188: The battle for imperial power, the mystery of the treasure

The dispute between the third prince and the prince is no longer a matter of one or two days.

The two often have opposing views on certain things, and this time is no exception.

But most of the time, the opinions between the third prince and the prince will only be supported by a few ministers.

Most humerus ministers are neutral!

But today, not only did the two ministers Xiao Yu and Pei Ji support the third prince, but Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling also supported the prince.

This was the first time that this phenomenon happened, and all the ministers were shocked.

A newly appointed Chang'an order actually intensified the competition among the princes.

Li Shimin also didn't expect that Fang Yuan would almost make all the ministers in the court excited.

All the ministers looked at Li Shimin on the throne, waiting for Li Shimin to confirm his opinions on the third prince and the prince.

"What the prince said is deeply appreciated by me."

"I believe that the people are the water and the king is the boat. Water can carry the boat and also capsize it. Princes, you should understand this clearly!"

Li Shimin said slowly.

Among the three princes and the prince, he felt that what the prince said was more reasonable.

But that doesn’t mean that what the third prince said is useless, it’s just that it’s used at the wrong time.

A power and a benevolent government. At this time, the Tang Dynasty needs benevolent government, not power.

"My son obeys the decree!"

Prince Li Chengqian was overjoyed and saluted immediately.

The third prince Li Ke and other princes also saluted one after another to express their respect.

"In addition, I already know that Liaozhou City shot and killed people!"

"Those people are no longer our people of the Tang Dynasty, but traitors bribed by the Eastern Turks!"

Li Shimin continued.

He had already thought about the outcome since he received Fang Yuan's memorial.

A group of common people who succumbed to the lustful power of the Eastern Turks and attacked the city were no longer worthy of becoming common people of the Tang Dynasty.

Between the tens of thousands of people in the city and the hundreds of people attacking the city, there is no doubt that they chose the former and killed the latter.

But the reason cannot be that if you choose one of the two, you will be impeached by some corrupt scholars. It is better to say that they have been bribed by the East Turks to save trouble.

"Your Majesty is wise!"

Fang Yuan immediately agreed.

It is up to Li Shimin to make a final decision on this matter, and no one will use this matter to attack him in the future.

When the third prince Li Ke heard this, his eyes flashed with anger, but he hesitated for a moment and ultimately did not refute Li Shimin's conclusion.

The same was true for Xiao Yu and Pei Ji. They hesitated for a moment and did not continue talking about the matter because they knew that the emperor had known about it in advance, so the problem had been solved.

"Okay, what I just said will take effect immediately."

"As for the matter of Bishamon's military division, it will be left to the Minister of Dali Temple to take full responsibility, and Chang'an will cooperate with the investigation."

Li Shimin continued.

Sharp eyes scanned the ministers below.

The minister who wanted to protest ultimately did not.

After all, the emperor and the prince have the same opinion, so there is no need to refute.

"Your Majesty is wise!"

"I obey the order!"

Fang Yuan continued to agree.

A minister among the ministers seconded the proposal.

"Fang Yuan, please step aside for now."

"You have just taken over Chang'an. Go back early to familiarize yourself with government affairs."

Li Shimin waved his hand to send Fang Yuan away.

If Fang Yuan stays here, he might be impeached by other ministers.

It's better to drive him away, so as not to become the target of attack, and you don't have to worry about him not being able to handle it.

"I resign!"

Fang Yuan meets, bows and leaves.

Many ministers looked at Fang Yuan with different expressions.

Some people lamented, some were hostile, and some wanted to kill Fang Yuan.

The impeachment of a prince and two princes turned out to be this.

At this moment, Fang Yuan, the Chang'an Order, officially entered the hearts of all the ministers and no longer underestimated him.

After walking out of Tai Chi Palace.

Fang Yuan immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

The pressure just now was quite high.

The first time I went to court, the first time I was besieged and impeached by so many ministers.

If the prince Li Chengqian hadn't opposed the third prince Li Ke, today might not have ended so quickly.

Judging from today’s initial impressions, the crown prince Li Chengqian and the third prince Li Ke are both the best among people, and both are very good.

But unfortunately, according to historical records, both of them failed to reach the 95th level in the end, and Li Zhi was still a kid.

Therefore, whether it was the solicitation from the Crown Prince Li Chengqian or the Third Prince Li Ke, Fang Yuan could only refuse to avoid being liquidated by the new emperor in the future.

As for hugging Li Zhi's thigh in advance, Fang Yuan has no such idea yet. Li Zhi is too young now, and he still has a long way to go.

In deep thought, Fang Yuan walked out of the palace and returned to Chang'an County Government Office to familiarize himself with the current government affairs.

About half an hour later, a government official reported that Li Daozong, the minister of Dali Temple, had arrived and took over the case of Bishamon Military Advisor.

"Welcome!"

Fang Yuan put down what he was doing.

He took the county magistrate and the chief registrar to greet him.

Li Daozong, the minister of Dali Temple, not only has a higher official rank than Fang Yuan, but he is also a prince.

"I'm going to the official source to pay my respects to King Rencheng."

Fang Yuan led the county government officials to welcome Li Daozong.

This is a middle-aged man about the same age as Li Shimin.

His appearance is a bit fierce, and his eyes are slightly sunken, making him intimidating.

“I’ve seen Fang Ling!”

"I am here to hand over the situation!"

Li Daozong said politely.

At the same time, he looked Fang Yuan up and down.

He was also in the court just now, witnessing Fang Yuan's impeachment.

He was very curious about a person who had been impeached by both the former prime minister and the current prime minister without any problems.

Moreover, before coming to hand over, Emperor Li Shimin had communicated with him in advance, expressing openly and secretly that Fang Yuan was a talent.

"King Rencheng, please come this way."

Fang Yuan made an invitation.

Soon, Fang Yuan welcomed people into the hall.

The layout of the hall has been slightly changed. A coffee table has been placed beside it, and someone is making tea.

Not long after, Sha Shishi, a water carrier from Song Guogong's mansion, and three other men in black who were captured alive were brought.

There were more than forty corpses, and Fang Yuan also brought them together and handed them over to Li Daozong, the minister of Dali Temple.

"Caught so many people alive?"

Li Daozong was a little surprised.

I thought I only caught one person, but I didn’t expect that it turned out to be four people.

You know, the power of Bishamon is almost unknown to the court now.
