Datang: An eight-year-old master of the bar, he gave everyone a blow at the beginning

Chapter 439 Yuchihuan was fined and confiscated half a year's salary by Li Er again

Seeing Wei Zheng coming out, Li Er said solemnly, "Wei Zheng, are you going to impeach Xiao Yuchi?"

As the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Li Er guessed Wei Zheng's mind in an instant.

Wei Zheng cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty guessed right, the person I want to impeach today is Zhongshuling Yuchihuan!"

Following Wei Zheng's words, all civil and military officials were stunned.

Yu Chihuan is the one who goes crazy and beats up people, Wei Zheng deserves to be beaten up!
Cheng Yaojin snickered secretly: "I have a good show to watch today!"

Although Yuchihuan is Cheng Yaojin's nephew, Cheng Yaojin has suffered from Yuchihuan's losses, so he also wants to see Yuchihuan's deflated appearance!

Xu Jingzong is a retainer of Yuchi's family, and he is the only official among all civil and military officials who is worried about Yuchihuan.

The official censor, Wei Zheng, was famous for his poisonous tongue in Tang Dynasty, and the officials impeached by him often did not end well!

Xu Jingzong's worries were not groundless!

Minister of Industry Yan Lide and Minister of Household Affairs Liu Zhenghui are neutral and will not help anyone.

Although Li Er is usually partial to Yuchi Huan, but today he also wanted to take the opportunity to beat Yuchi Huan, so he decided to make use of it!

"Wei Zheng, why are you impeaching Xiao Weichi today?"

Li Erming knew why and asked, because this is the correct procedure for the monarch and his ministers, and it cannot be neglected.

Wei Zheng raised his hand and said: "Your Majesty, today I impeached Zhongshu to order Yu Chihuan to break the rules of the court!"

Li Er nodded in approval and said: "No rules, no rules, Wei Zheng, keep talking!"

Seeing Li Er's provocative expression, Wei Zheng immediately added fuel and jealousy: "Your Majesty, Yu Chihuan didn't come to court today and he didn't ask His Majesty for leave. This is disloyalty and injustice..."

Li Er interrupted Wei Zheng and said, "Wei Zheng, little Yuchi is loyal to me, you can impeach him for other reasons!"

When the civil and military officials heard that Wei Zheng impeached Yuchi Huan for being unfaithful and unrighteous, their expressions changed drastically, because it was big or small!

If Li Er pursues the case, it would be frivolous for Yuchi Huan to be dismissed from office, and he might even be killed!

Cheng Yaojin said angrily: "Wei Zheng, this old fellow, is avenging his own private revenge!"

Li Jing, Qin Qiong, Chai Shao and the others also stared at Wei Zheng angrily.

Datang's military general Xungui is basically one, so they don't want Yuchihuan to have an accident.

Li Er just wanted to punish Yuchihuan a little, not to kill Yuchihuan, so he dare not agree with Wei Zheng's reason for impeachment!
"Eh...Your Majesty, since I can't impeach Yuchihuan for being unfaithful and unrighteous, then I can't see anyone impeaching him!"

Wei Zheng is old and cunning, so he changed his words wisely.

All civil and military officials were relieved to hear that Wei Zheng had changed his excuse for impeaching Yuchihuan!

Although Yu Chihuan was mischievous, he hadn't fallen to the point where everyone shouted and beat him.

Li Er nodded appreciatively and said, "Wei Zheng, you're right, I also think Xiao Yuchi is a bit arrogant!"

Wei Zheng said while the iron was hot: "Your Majesty, Yu Chihuan didn't go to court today, nor did he ask for leave. I suggest that Your Majesty dismiss him and investigate him!"

Li Er frowned and said, "Wei Zheng, Xiaowei is late in coming to court, is it so serious that he needs to be dismissed?"

Cheng Yaojin came out and said: "Your Majesty, Yu Chihuan is just a brat. He may have played too much today. Your Majesty has no need to dismiss him!"

Qin Qiong also echoed: "Your Majesty, I feel that Wei Zheng's reasons for impeaching Yuchi Huan are a bit exaggerated!"

Even the eldest Sun Shunde, who had always been at loggerheads with Yuchihuan, came forward and said, "Your Majesty, Yuchihuan may have gone to Changshan today, so that's why he didn't come to court!"

Wei Zheng was shocked to see so many princes and princes who helped Yu Chihuan say good things.

"When did Yuchihuan become so popular?"

Wei Zheng felt that he needed to re-evaluate Yuchihuan's popularity!
Li Er didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Wei Zheng, although little Yuchi didn't come to court, but there is no need to dismiss him for investigation, how about I punish him with half a year's salary?"

Wei Zheng thought for a while, then sighed, "Your Majesty, I have no objections!"

"Your Majesty is wise!"

Cheng Yaojin flattered Li Er immediately.

Li Jing, Qin Qiong, and Changsun Shunde also breathed a sigh of relief.

If Yu Chihuan was dismissed by Li Er and investigated, Yu Chigong would definitely use his favor to call Cheng Yaojin and his brothers to speak nice words in front of Li Er!
This is not what Cheng Yaojin and Li Jing want to see.

Because Cheng Yaojin and the others' favor in front of Li Er is less!
The friendship between the monarch and his ministers is also limited!
Li Er also didn't want to dismiss Yuchihuan and investigate, he immediately issued an order: "I pass on my order, Yuchihuan will be absent from the court meeting once without reason, and half a year's salary will be fined, I respect it!"

"Slaves follow orders!"

The prince secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then immediately drew up an order.

Soon Yuchihuan's punishment decree was written.

Li Er stamped the jade seal and ribbon, and the imperial decree took effect instantly.

"Well, Xiao Yuchi has already been fined by me for a year's salary this year haha!"

Li Er didn't know whether to laugh or cry, because this little guy Yuchihuan was so capable!
The prince then handed over the imperial decree to the eunuch who delivered the decree!

The eunuch who delivered the decree sent the imperial decree directly to Yuchi's home.

"Your Majesty, Zhongshu ordered Yuchihuan to ask for an audience outside the hall!"

At this moment, a Royal Forest Army hurriedly ran into the Xuanzheng Hall to report to Li Er!
Li Er snorted coldly and said: "Come here, bring Xiao Yuchi to me!"

"Here!"

The Imperial Forest Army did not dare to neglect, and immediately ran out of the Xuanzheng Hall.

When Wei Zheng learned that Yu Chihuan had returned to court, he was panicked and said, "Your Majesty, can I step down?"

Li Er waved his hand and said, "Wei Zheng, step back!"

"The minister obeys the order!"

Wei Zheng immediately returned to his original position.

Seeing Wei Zheng's frightened look, Cheng Yaojin cast a contemptuous glance at Wei Zheng and said, "Wei Zheng finally knows how to be afraid now? Where did that arrogant aura just now go?"

Li Jing, Qin Qiong, Chai Shao and others also sneered at the trembling Wei Zheng.

Changsun Shunde couldn't laugh or cry, he thought Wei Zheng was too funny!

Just now Wei Zheng impeached Yuchihuan, but as soon as Yuchihuan came back to court, he was scared!

"The old man is ashamed to be with Wei Zheng!"

Changsun Shunde secretly looked at Wei Zheng with contempt.

Even the censors at Yushitai were speechless, they never imagined that the upright Wei Zheng would be afraid sometimes.

When Yuchihuan came back to court, some people were happy, others were sad.

Now the happiest person in Xuanzheng Hall is Wang Gonggong.

Wang Gonggong said with a smile on his face: "Yu Chihuan is just late for court today, it's a trivial matter!"

In a moment, Yuchi Huan was taken to the Xuanzheng Hall by the imperial guards!

The eyes of civil and military officials fixed on Yuchihuan for an instant.

All of a sudden, Yuchihuan became the focus of everyone's attention.

"Wei Chen sees His Majesty!"

Yu Chihuan was a little guilty because it was the first time he encountered such a ridiculous thing as being late for the court, and he didn't dare to look Li Er's angry eyes directly!

Li Erju looked down at Yuchi Huan from a high position, and said, "Little Yuchi, why are you late for court today by an incense stick?"

Yu Chihuan cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I just went to Hongwenguan Academy to supervise the students to read Chinese aloud!"

The elder Sun Shunde came out and said: "Your Majesty, Yu Chihuan is a bachelor of Hongwenguan. It is not at fault for him to go to Hongwenguan Academy to supervise the students!"

Li Ersong said in a low voice: "Eldest Sun Shunde, you are right, Xiao Yuchi's fault is not that he went to Hongwenguan Academy, but that he was late for the court!"

"Your Majesty is aware of the details, and my minister is convinced!"

The eldest Sun Shunde immediately put a high hat on Li Er.

Nobody doesn't like being praised, and Li Er is no exception.

Li Er heard Changsun Shunde's flattering words, and Longyan said happily: "Changsun Shunde, how do you think I will punish Xiaowei for being late for court today?"

"Your Majesty, you have confiscated Yuchihuan's half-year salary just now!"

Changsun Shunde immediately corrected Li Er's question.

Yu Chihuan was dumbfounded, he never thought that he didn't come to the court for an incense stick of time, and unexpectedly lost half a year's salary again!
Although Yuchi's family was not short of money, Li Er frequently fined him half a year's salary, and not many officials in Chang'an City could bear it.

At present, officials below the third grade in Chang'an City basically rely on their salaries to support their families!
Li Er wanted to punish Yuchihuan more today, which instantly aroused many officials' sympathy for Yuchihuan.
