In the Taiji Hall, chaos suddenly broke out as the king fainted.
Li Er hurriedly ordered the imperial doctor to get Wang down.
However, this matter is not over yet.
Li Er looked at Du He and said with a headache: "Du He, Du He, Wang Situ is the founding father of the Tang Dynasty, and you actually fainted him out of anger. What do you want?"
Du He curled his lips: "What kind of elder is not an elder? Your Majesty, in my opinion, this person is relying on his old age to show off his old age. When he is old, he cannot stay at home to take care of his grandson, and insists on running to the main hall and yelling. This is not the same.
I don't care. If you don't believe me, go to the imperial doctor and ask. Wang Situ has high blood pressure and cannot be excited. He faints when he gets excited."
What is high blood pressure?
Everyone looked confused.
Li Er said angrily: "You are still making excuses. I'm here to ask you. It is true that Gongsong Zanbu was wrong in attacking the furniture factory. However, he has a special status. He is the prince of Tubo. If you kill him, Tubo might be defeated."
If you want to go to war with me, the Tang Dynasty, it will cost people and money, can you afford such a result?"
Du He shook his head: "Your Majesty, you are mistaken again. I just said that I was not the one who killed Gongsongzanbu. It was a sharp archer named Xu Zhengdao who shot him. If you don't believe me, just ask.
Mr. Hou and General Li were present at the time."
Du He suddenly felt grateful to Xu Zhengdao.
If that guy hadn't suddenly taken action, I'm afraid I would be in a lot of trouble now.
Li Er asked again: "Na Gongsong Zanbu, were you forced to leave the yard?"
"yes!"
"Has Gongsong Zanbu's body been snatched away by your people?"
"That's right!"
Du Hedu answered honestly.
Li Er nodded and sneered: "Okay, since you admit it, that's it. If you hadn't used some cannon to blow out Gongsong Zanbu, why would Gongsong Zanbu be shot and killed? Did you let people blow up Gongsong Zanbu?"
What do you want to do after taking Song Zanbu's body away?"
"No, no, Your Majesty, you can't say that. The death of Gongsong Zanbu has nothing to do with me. The delivery was purely a suicide attempt... I had no intention of killing Gongsong Zanbu in the first place.
It's just that he sent people to attack the furniture factory and caused immeasurable losses to me. Of course I will take people to ask him for an explanation. It's that simple. As for the rest, it can only be said to be an accident." Du He breathed out.
After speaking, his tone was extremely sincere.
Even Li Er had some doubts about whether Du He was telling the truth.
With the king's lesson learned, none of the civil and military ministers dared to stand up and scold Du He.
Li Er added: "In any case, Gongsong Zanbu's death is directly related to you."
"I think it's okay..."
After Du He finished speaking, he added: "Your Majesty, please listen to what I have to say. Gongsong Zanbu came to Chang'an City in the name of peace talks, but there were at least forty dead soldiers around him, all of whom were highly skilled in martial arts, and these
He usually spreads around Chang'an City and outside the city, oppressing good people and doing all kinds of evil. In fact, I have been paying attention to him for a long time."
Du He turned around, flicked his sleeves, and read loudly.
"At first, when I saw them oppressing the people, I didn't say anything because I am the son of Lantian County and I am not an ordinary citizen."
"Then I saw them bullying merchants in Chang'an. I didn't say anything because my furniture factory and study business were not that big yet."
"Then, they started to humiliate officials of the Tang Dynasty, relying on their status as Tubo princes. I didn't say anything because, although I was the county magistrate, I was not an official of the central government!"
"Later, they colluded with the Wang family and intended to steal the secrets of the Tang Dynasty. I chose to remain silent because those secrets had no value to me."
Everyone was shocked.
Although what Du He said was in plain language, it was full of rhythm and emotion, arousing everyone's emotions in an instant.
"Until the end, they raised their machetes and came at me aggressively... I couldn't bear it anymore, why, why didn't you leave me a way to survive... I, I just want to live a low-key life and get rich, but , they don’t allow it, they want my head, they want to seize my property, and I just want an explanation... but it’s so difficult!”
Du He looked distressed.
Du He walked up to Wei Zheng, grabbed Wei Zheng's hand, and asked loudly: "Master Wei, you are the most selfless person in our Tang Dynasty. You are here to judge. Do you think I should ask for an explanation?"
Wei Zheng was startled.
He nodded hurriedly: "That makes sense, that makes sense!"
Du He turned around again and walked towards Cheng Yaojin: "Uncle Cheng, what do you think?"
Cheng Yaojin stroked his beard and said loudly: "If it were me, old Cheng, I would have hacked him with two axes."
Du He grabbed Fang Xuanling again: "Master Fang, you said, I went to Gongsong Zanbu to ask for an explanation. Am I wrong?"
Fang Xuanling shook her head: "That's right, that's right..."
Du He turned around and looked at everyone. Everyone shook their heads and said they were right.
Li Er almost collapsed.
After Du He obtained the opinions of more than a dozen people, he turned around and said to Li Er: "Your Majesty, you see, everyone thinks that what I did is reasonable and legal. Why do you just think that what I did is wrong?"
Snapped.
Li Eryi slapped the table: "Retreat from the court, Du He stays!"
The situation has been beyond Li Er's control.
If he doesn't announce his resignation, he is afraid that these ministers will be bewitched by Du He and kneel down to plead for Du He.
Everyone rushed out of the hall.
Li Er waved his hand and asked all the palace maids and eunuchs around him to leave, and then walked down in person, staring at Du He unblinkingly.
Du He and Li Er looked at each other without giving in at all.
Li Er waited for a long time before he said: "Du He, you let me know you better. You call black people white, dead people you call alive. Is there anything else that you can't do with your mouth?" ?”
Du He chuckled: "An old Taoist once said to me that the reason why cows fly in the sky is because I am blowing on the ground. This is to praise my eloquence."
Li Er: "..."
I have never seen such a shameless person!
He stared at Du He and said coldly: "You can deceive others, but you can't deceive me. What's the point of asking for an explanation? Do you think I'm a fool? With your character, if someone stares at you, you can go up and give him a few Slap, Nagonson Zanbu attacked the furniture factory, can you easily let him go?"
Du He shook his head: "That's different. I, Du He, love peace the most. Fighting and killing people are so boring. Whether you believe it or not, I just went to Gongsong Zanbu to reason with him."
Anyway, everyone died, and the bodies were secretly hidden by Lu Bu. No matter what Du He said, there was no proof.
Li Er approached Du He and said, "I don't believe it. The war between Tubo and Tang Dynasty is inevitable. I can let you go, but you must hand over the cannon."
When Li Er got the news, he was attracted by the cannon.
Seeing Li Er's greedy expression, Du He said: "Your Majesty, I can give you the cannon, but I can't give it to you for free."
"Tell me, what conditions do you want?"
Du He: "I want to keep Xu Zhengdao alive!"
"That's right!"
"I want to marry the princess!"
Li Er was stunned: "Yuan Shu is your fiancée. I can choose an auspicious day to hold the wedding for you."
Du He shook his head: "No, Your Majesty, I want to marry Princess Changle."
Li Er was speechless for a long time, and finally roared: "Get out..."
