Great Tang Southern Emperor

This kind of performance made many members of the anti-Li Zhen alliance more and more satisfied. Looking at others, and then looking at themselves, who the hell is the member of the anti-Li Zhen alliance?Fang Xuanling, your submission is too big, isn't it?

"What does Fang Qing say? Does Fang Qing insist that this matter was provoked by Zhen'er?" Li Shimin's voice clearly contained anger, which made some people's hearts jump.

"No, His Royal Highness the King of Yue has nothing to do with it, but he has made no mistakes." Fang Xuanling repeatedly shook his head in denial.

"What!" Everyone was even more confused, what did you say?It's neither Li Shimin's fault nor Li Zhen's fault, whose fault is that?Is it the fault of the stupid big wood?Is it the fault of the system?Is it society's fault?Is it the earth's fault?

"Then what does Ai Qing mean? Who is at fault?" Li Shimin also looked curious, and he wanted to see what Fang Xuanling was going to say.

Fang Xuanling suddenly knelt down, and in the astonished expressions of everyone, he said something even more shocking: "Your Majesty, don't forget, the battle report of His Royal Highness King Yue clearly stated that the people who captured Rili City The main general is actually not His Royal Highness the King of Yue, but the child's last love.

Your Majesty, you can't covet Moxia's children's merits just because the status of the King of Yue is aloof.

It is not acceptable for the children to make a contribution once, Your Majesty, if your Majesty really wants to erase the children's credit because of the children's mistakes, as a father, I might as well smash my head to death on this golden palace, and ask the ancestors of the Tang Dynasty for an explanation up. "

"Pooh……"

"shameless……"

This is what everyone thinks at the moment, peat is too shameless.

Goddamn Fang Yiai is the chief general, if Li Zhen hadn't been appointed, would your Fang Yiai be the chief general?

What the hell is the credit for greed, Li Shimin will be greedy for your credit for capturing a small city?

It's not easy to make meritorious deeds, just the ones we've seen, Fang Yiai's name has appeared no less than ten times, okay?

God damn it crashed to death in the Golden Luan Hall, but you did, why didn't you crash?

God damn it... what are you talking about?

"Er..." Li Shimin waterfall sweated: "Aiqing's words are just..."

"Your Majesty, please tell me clearly, is this credit the child's?" Fang Xuanling put on a posture of bumping into the pillar, which means that if you dare not admit it, I will dare to bump into death.

"Uh...of course it's Fang Jun's credit." Li Shimin wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, acting like a trap, and hurriedly said: "I have already acknowledged Fang Jun's credit, Ai Qing, you should hurry up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Fang Xuanling did not stand up as he said, but knelt down again: "It's just that the laws of my Tang Dynasty are strict, and those who make meritorious deeds must be rewarded, and those who have done wrong must be punished. The emperor has recognized Fang Jun's great contributions, but his The mistake is also very obvious, please ask the emperor to lower the punishment...

In addition, I think the emperor's words are very correct, it is the fault of not raising the father, and the laziness of the teacher...

This statement is very reasonable. As a father, the minister did not supervise his son's studies properly, which eventually led to the current catastrophe. I also ask the emperor not to care about the friendship between the monarch and his ministers, and to punish me so as to defend my strict laws. "

"...too shameless..." At this moment, everyone understood Fang Xuanling's meaning, who the hell wanted to surrender to the anti-Li Zhen alliance?He is just teasing you for fun, but his real purpose is to take the blame for Li Zhen.

"Pfft~" Li Zhengdao almost spat out a mouthful of blood, and died of anger on the spot, glaring at Fang Xuanling: "Fang Xuanling, what do you mean?"

Naturally, Fang Xuanling would not be afraid of him: "What do you mean? This official is naturally to maintain the strict laws of the Tang Dynasty. Those who make meritorious deeds must be rewarded, and those who have done wrong must be punished. This is one of the most basic laws of the Tang Dynasty. What? Does Master Li think that What did I do wrong? I have given up on all my sons. If the emperor is willing to admit that this sentence is just empty talk, then I have to thank the emperor for a few words. After all, my son doesn’t love much. One more person to die."

"I...Of course not. It is right to reward those who have made meritorious deeds and punish those who have done wrong." Li Shimin did not dare to admit this, so he gritted his teeth and gave Fang Xuanling a hard look. What the hell?

But Fang Xuanling gave Li Shimin a look of peace and calmness, and said calmly: "It seems that the emperor also admits that this sentence is correct. Just now, I saw that Master Li objected. Could it be said that Master Li has something to say about this?" A different opinion?"

"When...of course not." Li Shimin didn't dare to deny it, and Li Zhengdao was nothing, how could he dare to doubt this sentence?I could only admit it by pinching my nose.

If he didn't dare, he was still reconciled, and continued to talk about his relationship with Li Zhen: "But as we all know, Young Master Ling went to attack Lin Yi with His Highness King Yue. city?"

It's a pity that his opponent is Fang Xuanling, who is known for his resourcefulness, and he easily turned back when he heard the words: "Of course, this was ordered by His Royal Highness King Yue. But you also said that King Yue just ordered the dog to attack Linyi, but Did not instruct the dog to massacre the city.

The massacre of the city was actually Gouzi's own intention, that is to say, it was his unauthorized action, and it has nothing to do with the King of Yue. At most, His Highness the King of Yue is guilty of ignorance. If you dare to ask Mr. Zhang, I don't know if you don't know people. What crime? "

Chapter 450 What kind of crime is it? (No.20 eighth update)

Chapter 223 What kind of crime is it? (No.20 eighth update)

"Ah?" Zhang Liang (Zhang Liang is the Secretary of the Ministry of Justice) was excited to watch the excitement. He didn't expect the fire to burn on his head, and he fell into a dilemma. He wanted to offend both sides, but the emperor was watching. , I am not good and muddy.After thinking about it, Li Shimin's power is still great enough, so he could only think about it in his heart, shook his head with a wry smile, and said, "Master Fang, you are embarrassing me. The conviction of knowing someone unknown is too vague. There is no clear regulation in the "Zhenguan Law" to punish according to the losses caused by the recommended person. The subordinate just thought about it. In history, there are not many incidents similar to His Royal Highness the King of Yue. Punishment The most serious thing is that in the Han Dynasty, a person recommended a general to lead the army, but the general was defeated and suffered heavy losses. The general was dismissed directly, but the person who recommended him was only fined It's only been three years, but this is a bit similar to what happened to His Royal Highness the King of Yue this time."

"That's it." Li Shimin was lost in thought on the surface, but he was happy in his heart, gave Zhang Liang a look of approval, and said loudly: "In that case, then follow this... But Zhen Er is a prince after all. , and the loss caused is relatively large, then double the penalty...then the salary will be fined for six years...I wonder what you think, my loves?"

Can we say we disagree?Everyone had wry smiles on their faces. Although they were upset, they still accepted the punishment on the surface.

After all, in the final analysis, it was just ignorance, not to mention the previous cases as a comparison, Li Shimin doubled the penalty on this basis, which is really heavy enough, and no one can say anything.

Besides, in all fairness, this punishment is indeed serious enough.

How much is the salary of a first-rank official in the Tang Dynasty: Among them, the salary alone is 816 taels (as mentioned before, the price of goods in the Tang Dynasty was very cheap, a bucket of rice was only three to five cents, and more than 80 taels of silver was enough to support a large family.) , in addition to salary silver, there is also a salary of 650 shi (stone was a unit of weight and volume in ancient times. If calculated by weight, according to the Han system: one stone is four jun, one jun is thirty catties, one stone is 120 Jin, 120x650=78000, seventy-eight thousand catties. If calculated according to the volume unit: one stone is ten buckets, one bucket of rice weighs about 125 catties, ten buckets is 125 catties, 125x650=81250, eighty-one thousand two hundred and fifty Jin, the two are almost the same, but no matter which one is, it is enough to support a family), in addition to the salary and salary, there are 1000 acres of land, and 1200 taels of servant subsidies. RMB 240 million, these are considered normal income, in addition to these income, the emperor will reward some silk cloth, seasonal fruits and vegetables from time to time, if you add these, there will be more.

Six years of salary was fined at one time, which means that this official has to work for Datang for six years without getting a penny, and most people can't bear it at all.What's more, Li Zhen is not a pure official, he is a prince, and the income from the fief has to be recovered. If he has no one else to make a living, then he can only eat dirt these years.

The question is that although Li Zhen is not an ordinary official, is he an ordinary prince?Who has seen that the annual income of a prince can equal the income of the entire Datang treasury?

You must know that Li Zhen has the nickname of Little God of Wealth in the folks. He is also the master behind the largest commercial firm in the Tang Empire. Even Li Zhen himself does not know how much property he owns. To fight for money, this is the real wealth that is incomparable to the enemy.

Being fined for six years' salary is a terrible punishment for others, but what is it to Li Zhen?To him, such a small amount of money might not even compare to a single hair, and even the time he spent in a few breaths earned him much more money than such a small amount of money.

"The ministers are convinced..." Helpless, everyone had no choice but to grit their teeth and admit Li Shimin's punishment.

"Well, let's do this." Li Shimin also nodded in satisfaction, looked around, and said: "If you have nothing else to do, then retreat."

"Wait a minute." Just as Wang Tingchu was about to call back, he was interrupted loudly, so frightened that he almost got a mouthful of saliva stuck in his throat, almost choking him to death, and finally recovered.

"Is there anything else that Fang Aiqing wants to do?" It was still Fang Xuanling who spoke, Li Shimin couldn't help frowning, what are you guys doing?I'm already ready to retreat, this is obviously helping you, why don't you know what's good or bad?This is to save your son. Your son has committed a serious crime of massacring the city, but you want... eh?

Fang Xuanling didn't look at Li Shimin's expression, but just bowed and said, "My Majesty, the matter of His Highness King Yue has been settled, but the matter of the child's bereavement has not been resolved yet?"

"What's wrong with this?" Before Li Shimin opened his mouth, Li Zhengdao said first: "Fang Yiai massacred the people of Linyi and destroyed the city of Linyi. He committed a heinous crime. The world will not tolerate it. He should be taken back to Chang'an and beheaded for public display."

Hmph, aren't you going to take the blame for Li Zhen?Then I will fulfill your wish and let you watch how your son died with your own eyes?If I can't kill Li Zhen, can I still not kill your son?

Regarding Li Zhengdao's clown-like behavior, Fang Xuanling didn't react at all, but said coldly: "It is a fact that my son massacred the city. I don't deny this. But what crime is the massacre of the city, and how should it be punished? You said it." It doesn’t count, it doesn’t count if I say it, it doesn’t even count if the emperor says it, it’s only counted if the law says it. Dare I ask Mr. Zhang, what is the crime of massacring the city? And how should it be punished?”

"I..." Zhang Liang didn't expect that Fang Xuanling would set the fire on his own head again, and he felt a great hatred in his heart, but when he thought of the approving eyes that the emperor looked at him just now, the dissatisfaction in Zhang Liang's heart immediately dissipated. It's Fang Xiang who is trying to give me a chance to show my face.

Having figured this out, he quickly closed his eyes and thought about it for a while. After a long while, Zhang Liang opened his eyes with a wry smile, looked at Fang Xuanling and shook his head and said, "Fang Xiang, Fang Xiang, you will really cause trouble for your subordinates. Just now, my subordinates thought about it carefully in their minds and found that the "Zhenguan Law" also did not record the method of dealing with the massacre. I recalled the history and found no similar cases... This is really impossible to judge. "

"Impossible, you are lying." Li Zhengdao jumped three feet high: "How is this possible? So many cities have been slaughtered in history, how could the culprit not be punished?"

Chapter 451 What you said makes sense (No.20 Ninth Update)

Chapter 224 makes sense

For Li Zhengdao, Zhang Liang is not afraid of him. Hearing this, he just glanced at him and said coldly: "Master Li, is this doubting my professionalism? There are indeed many massacres in history, but please think about it, Mr. Li." , so many cases of massacres, how many of them were massacred by our own people?"

"I..." Li Zhengdao was dumbfounded for a moment. What he said was correct. Things like massacres are usually carried out against the enemy. For example, the famous Ten Days of Yangzhou, the Three Massacres of Jiading and the Nanjing Massacre were all aimed at China by foreigners. There are very few examples of people using their own people to perform surgery on their own people - there were some during the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom period, but now it is the Tang Dynasty, there is a fart Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

But when you think about it, massacres are generally a show of prestige, and they are usually aimed at the enemy. Who would eat and hold on to their own people for fun?

Cao Cao massacred Xuzhou. At that time, Xuzhou was not his territory, and it was also hostile. Even so, he did it in the name of avenging his father.
