During these days, memorials for the impeachment of Du He by the ministers of the DPRK and Central Government flew like snowflakes in front of Li Er's case.
However, out of his trust in Du He, Li Er ignored them all. As a result, the memorials for impeaching Du He had to be cleared out every three days in the royal study, otherwise they would not be able to be piled up.
Seeing that His Majesty Li Er ignored him, the ministers finally couldn't help it and took the lead in attacking this morning.
Seeing this, Li Er couldn't help but regret his decision to send Du He to Hu County.
He sat on the unique sofa and dragon chair in the world built by Du He, looked at the civil and military ministers, and suddenly said in surprise: "Isn't Wei Aiqing going to court today?"
Wei Zheng has been missing for several days.
Gao Shilian stood up and said: "Your Majesty, Mr. Wei has not been in a good mood recently!"
"Oh? What happened?" Li Er asked in surprise.
Gao Shilian said: "Your Majesty works hard every day. I'm afraid you don't know. Recently, there has been a lot of rumors in Chang'an City. Master Wei's second son Wei Shuyu went to Hu County to become the director of a pig farm, leading more than a thousand people in the city. Regarding pig farming, Master Wei’s third son Wei Shuwan also went to Hu County recently. He didn’t even say anything about his departure. He even sent a letter home saying that he was studying the nutritional mix of pigs..."
Li Er was surprised again: "...Wei Shuwan, but that Wei Shuwan who was known as a child prodigy at the age of eight in Chang'an?"
"That's right," Gao Aiqing said, "Your Majesty, Wei Shuwan has been familiar with poems, books, and ancient articles since he was a child. Therefore, when he was eight years old, he was called the little prodigy of Chang'an by Master Kong. He was extremely intelligent and unparalleled. As time went by, , will definitely become a talent of the Tang Dynasty and benefit the world... But within three days of going to Hu County, he was bewitched by Du He and went to study pig feeding. This matter has become the biggest laughing stock in Chang'an City. Alas, this Raising pigs is very harmful to people..."
Li Er: "..."
He immediately understood that it was not that Wei Zheng was in a bad mood, but that he did not dare to go out to meet people.
"Your Majesty," a supervisory censor said quickly, "Your Majesty, the current situation of raising pigs is causing endless harm. Your Majesty, think about it, since Du He started raising pigs, Wei Shuwan, Wei Shuyu, the censor Mr. Liu, and Mr. Dai My nephew Dai Jinyun, and even His Royal Highness the King of Shu... The Duke of Huyi County is crazy. Is he going to feed all the civil and military officials of the dynasty to pigs?"
"Your Majesty, you can no longer condone Du He!"
"Yes, Your Majesty, I heard that Du He is now planning to build a future city in Hu County. Isn't this a great achievement and a complete nonsense?"
"Your Majesty, please issue an order immediately to recall Du He to the court. He can no longer be allowed to serve as the county magistrate of Hu County. If your Majesty does not dislike it, I am willing to serve as the county magistrate of Hu County!"
Everyone said one after another.
Li Er looked at Du Ruhui at the front.
But he saw Lao Du standing there, looking drowsy, as if it had nothing to do with him.
He pondered for a long time and said: "My dear friends, I already know about this matter, but I don't know the truth. Seeing is believing and hearing is false. I can't favor Du He, but I can't favor everyone either. That's right. Therefore, I have decided to send the crown prince to Hu County to inspect Hu County for me, what do you all think?"
Send the prince to inspect Hu County?
After everyone heard this, they suddenly looked overjoyed.
Prince Li Chengqian has a kind heart, reads poetry and books, and has an honest personality.
Of course, the most important thing is that the prince was beaten by Du He, and there was a deep feud between the two.
If the prince comes to Hu County, will Du He's life be easier?
Du He is dead this time!
Changsun Wuji hurriedly said: "Your Majesty is wise!"
"Your Majesty is wise!" Gao Shilian also said.
"I second the proposal!"
"I request your Majesty to issue an order immediately, asking His Royal Highness to rush to Hu County!"
"Yes, we can't delay for a moment!"
The opinions of the ministers were surprisingly unified.
Li Er looked at Du Ruhui and asked, "Keming, what do you think?"
Du Ruhui seemed to have just woken up. He raised his eyes and looked at Changsun Wuji and others: "Oh!"
Everyone: "..."
In the past six months, Du Xiang has become less and less serious about Du He!
Li Er then said: "In that case, it has been decided. Chengqian, you will set off immediately and rush to Hu County. Come back in ten days and give an explanation to all your beloved ministers about what you saw during your inspection."
Li Chengqian hurriedly stood up and said happily: "My son, I will definitely live up to the expectations of my father and all the adults!"
…
East Palace.
Lakeside.
Prince Zhan Shi Zhang Xuansu stared at Li Chengqian seriously and said: "Your Majesty, this is the best opportunity to get rid of Du He... This is the intelligence I sent to Hu County to collect, piece by piece.
, are enough to put Du He into a situation of eternal doom. When I go to Hu County this time, I will have all the evidence and present it to His Majesty, and Your Majesty will make a decision by then."
With that said, he handed a thick booklet to Li Chengqian.
Li Chengqian looked at it and said in surprise: "Teacher, although Du He's crimes are extremely heinous, he is the son of Prime Minister Du after all. Isn't it a bit cruel for us to send him to a place of eternal destruction?"
Zhang Xuansun shook his head: "Your Highness, you really still can't make up your mind. As the saying goes, there is no husband without poison. You are the future emperor. In addition to kindness, you should also be decisive. I know that Your Majesty is kind-hearted, and I definitely don't want to completely destroy Du He.
After being beaten down, I decided to follow His Highness to Hu County. This time, I will personally demonstrate to His Highness how to drive Du He into a place of eternal destruction..."
"Teacher, you..."
"Your Majesty has agreed to this matter." Zhang Xuansu said proudly.
He has made complete preparations and even mobilized all his resources to eradicate Du He.
…
"Confirmed?" Du He looked at Ma Zhou and asked.
Ma Zhou nodded: "According to Zhang Jian's inquiry, His Royal Highness is about to arrive in Hu County tonight, and Prince Zhan will go with Zhang Xuansu. County Lord, this time the Crown Prince is coming very aggressively, I'm afraid it's not good, Zhang Xuansu
I had dealt with this man when I was in the court. He was ruthless and good at strategy. Although he studied sage books diligently and boasted of being a strategist, his favorite thing was studying the art of emperors. Many people in the court were unwilling to interact with him.
He deals with..."
"Zhang Xuansu..."
Du He muttered and his expression became serious.
Zhang Xuansu was considered a celebrity in the Tang Dynasty.
This guy used to be an official of the Sui Dynasty and served as a household officer in Jingcheng County. Dou Jiande happened to capture Jingcheng County and captured him. Dou Jiande was going to kill him, but the people in the county came out in large numbers to plead for him.
Dou Jiande was so shocked that instead of killing him, he treated him as a guest.
Therefore, it is now spread all over the world that Zhang Xuansu is a good official who has won the hearts of the people.
But Du He didn't think so.
As a person who has traveled through time in later generations, he has read about Zhang Xuansu's historical deeds. The truth about what happened in Jingcheng County that year is that the people did not voluntarily intercede for Zhang Xuansu. All of this was arranged by Zhang Xuansu in advance.
Yes, what this person is best at is strategy, especially inciting the people.
