Great Tang Southern Emperor

There was once a person who expressed dissatisfaction in the face of Wei Zheng's impeachment, but his own ass was not clean, and he couldn't justify his crimes. So the next day, his deeds were all over Chang'an, and his reputation was completely stink. Every time I went out, I would be judged by people around me. After a while, I couldn't bear the eyes of others, so I hanged myself.

Today's Wei Zheng can be said to be the No. [-] ghost in the Tang Dynasty. He is afraid of others. Fortunately, he is fair and will not be like the unscrupulous media in the later generations, who will report some things that are not true. This is also Li Shimin. The main reason why you are so afraid of him, yet trust so many newspapers in his hands instead of splitting them up is to find someone who can be as fair, open and just as him in the whole Tang Dynasty. It is very rare, and among these few people, Wei Zheng is the only one who can occupy a high position.Therefore, no matter in terms of character or qualifications, Wei Zheng is the most suitable person to control the newspaper, and the rest, even Fang Du and his ilk, cannot do this.

So although Li Shimin was afraid that Wei Zheng would die, the rest of the people were even more afraid of avoiding him. Now that he has a clue in his hands, the best way to escape is to immediately admit his fault. Even if he helped the emperor lie and develop, there would be only one fate for him—that Wei Zheng would put all his secrets on tomorrow's headlines, and he would become a transparent person from then on, without any privacy at all.

Chapter 733 Wei Zheng's Power

Chapter 96 The Power of Wei Zheng

"This..." Li Jing saw that Li Shimin had transferred the firepower to himself, and immediately wanted to scold his mother, and what Li Shimin meant was that he wanted to lie to Wei Zheng with him?

However, deception also depends on the occasion. Now that the scene is so clear, the wine jars have not been put away. Wei Zheng is not a fool. How could he not see such an obvious lie?

Now in Datang, everyone knows what it will be like to cheat Wei Zheng, especially if you are being held by him...

Therefore, although it was the emperor who gave the order, Li Jing was more reluctant to have his name on the front page tomorrow than to disobey the emperor's order.

Therefore, under Wei Zheng's threatening eyes, he still chose to retreat: "Your Majesty, as the saying goes, you don't joke, and one person does something and one person is responsible. How can you lie? You dragged us to drink. The minister is dead, the minister has to die, how can we dare to disobey your majesty's order?"

"Ah? ... Pharmacist, I misunderstood you." Li Shimin was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood. He didn't expect that Li Jing, who has always been very low-key on weekdays, would say such words, and he was immediately angry. It was full of threats: "Do you think you will be safe if you escape today? You are too naive."

Between the lines, the threat is obvious, meaning that you can escape Wei Zheng's calamity by betraying me today, but in the days to come, I will have plenty of opportunities to get revenge.

An emperor actually said such words to his courtiers, which shows how terrifying Wei Zheng's deterrent power is.

"Um, that's what I want to say." Regarding Li Shimin's threat, Li Jing said that the pressure is not too great: "I have followed His Majesty for so many years, and I have been injured all over my body due to the southern and northern wars. Now the Tang Dynasty is developing more and more. Well, the younger generation has also been cultivated, and the minister is also feeling that it is time to abdicate to make up for the virtuous, and the minister is going to submit his resignation letter to His Majesty after this prisoner offering ceremony is over, and please His Majesty's permission."

threaten me?

Hehe, who is afraid of you?

I quit, let's see how you threaten me...

"I... Forget it, I'll talk about it later." Li Shimin was dumbfounded, this old bastard is too hateful, knowing that Datang can't do without you now, come with me...

However, Li Shimin did not dare to agree. Datang seems to be more and more prosperous now, but it is also facing endless crises. There are countless aliens peeping at the prosperity of Datang from the outside. Li Shimin or the royal family of the Li family was pulled down-it can be described as internal and external troubles.

In this case, there are three most indispensable people in the Tang Dynasty. The first person is Li Shimin, because he is the emperor, the master of the country, and the controller of the country. Looking at the Tang Dynasty from top to bottom, Anyone can be less, but he cannot be less.

The second thing that cannot be missing is Li Zhen, because he is the crown prince and the reserve master of this country. If something goes wrong with Li Shimin, he can immediately take over the throne and stabilize the court. At the same time, Li Zhen's folk prestige is also very high Yes, if something goes wrong with him, it will easily damage the national self-confidence.

And the third indispensable thing is Li Jing.Because he is the God of War of the Great Tang, and also a famous God of War in the world, as long as he is there, no matter what happens, the morale of the Great Tang can at least be kept above the standard line, and there will be no morale drop due to certain things.

As for civil servants like Fang Du, in fact, their role now is not as great as before.Because Datang has developed for so many years, the civil service system has already developed a complete set of procedures for handling affairs. Even if the chief officials of the three provinces are missing, the departments below can handle nearly [-]% of the affairs of Datang, stabilizing the court. Bureau is no problem.

What's more, within the Tang Dynasty, there is a strict succession system. Even if something happens to Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and others, there will be backup candidates to replace them—this is not easy to achieve in the generals group.Because to put it bluntly in the military, the big fist is the truth, and the prestige is big, and you will be respected.If Li Jing, Li Ji, or Qin Qiong and Yu Chigong had problems, even if Li Shimin forcibly promoted someone to take their place, I am afraid that the people in the army would not be convinced.

Therefore, Li Jing's status should be ranked third in Datang, and now the third God of War wants to abdicate to protect himself, Li Shimin immediately succumbed.

"I said, have you guys had enough trouble?" Seeing the farce between Li Shimin and Li Jing, Wei Zheng's face, which was not pale at first, became even darker: "Your Majesty, now is the critical period for the ceremony of presenting prisoners. You don't go to the Taimiao to pray, but hide here to drink and eat meat...you...After this matter is over, I must take part in the performance of Your Majesty."

"Xuan Cheng, it's not what you think... I'm just... I'm just too happy... Yes, speaking of it, if you want trouble, you have to find trouble with Zhen Er." Li Shimin was terrified, Wei Zheng said to him But if he really dared to announce this matter in the newspaper, his image as a Mingjun would be completely ruined by then, so Li Shimin, who was in a hurry, directly threw the blame on Li Zhen: "If it wasn't for Zhen The grand military parade arranged by my son was too exciting, it showed the majesty of my Tang Dynasty fiercely, which made me so happy, why would I hide here to drink and celebrate? So if you want to blame me, don't blame me, blame me Let the culprit go."

"Pfft~Father, you can't say such nonsense." Li Zhen sprayed directly, what she said...wasn't it too shameless?Co-authored me to complete the task, or is it not mine?If that's what you mean, who will dare to do things with all their heart in the future?

In fact, this is also the reason why Li Shimin's drunkenness is still not completely sober. If it were his normal time, he would definitely not be able to say such rascal words, but now he has just recovered from drunkenness, and he is still scared by life. Sober, my brain didn't react for a while.

"Your Majesty, how can you say such a thing?" Sure enough, everyone's expressions changed when they heard this. Although everyone knew that Li Shimin had slipped his tongue when he was drunk, how could he say something?

Tell the truth after drinking.

Although I don't understand if Li Shimin's mantra after drinking.

But this kind of thing is usually rather credible than credible.

There is another saying called knowing people, knowing the face but not knowing the heart.

Who can guarantee that Li Shimin's magnanimity is just his appearance, but deep down in his heart, he is actually a jealous person?

Although this possibility is unlikely, it has to be guarded against.

Chapter 734

Chapter 97 Prisoner Presentation Ceremony: Da Zongzheng

"Your Majesty, please be careful with your words." Seeing everyone's faces, Wei Zheng immediately understood their thoughts, and quickly changed the subject to save the situation: "Your Majesty, you have committed a serious mistake this time, but tomorrow will be the ceremony of presenting prisoners. The accountant will write it down for His Majesty first, and leave it for later calculation...You guys, hurry up and send Your Majesty to the Taimiao, if there is any problem in worshiping the ancestors, even if you have ten heads, it is not enough to chop off."

"Yes." Immediately, there were several young eunuchs supporting Li Shimin to go out, and for a while, only Li Zhen and others were left staring at him.

"That... Xuan Cheng... You said that we are all victims, His Majesty called us here, it's not that we are dishonest... Look..." Reflected by Wei Zheng's black-faced godlike face, Everyone is sweating coldly behind their backs. This is the real King of Hades in Datang. If anyone offends him, you will be ruined in minutes. Believe it or not?

"Forget it, the prisoner offering ceremony will be held tomorrow, everyone should go back to rest early." Wei Zheng waved his hand, didn't say much, sighed, and was the first to go out.

"..."

what's the situation?

Everyone looked at each other.

I thought that I and the others would have to be reprimanded by Wei Zheng, but who knew that they were lightly exposed—could it be that Wei Zheng had changed his nature?

It shouldn't be, with this character who can't rub the sand in his eyes, he would let him go so easily?

Think about it and know that this is impossible.

Could it be that he is considering that he will worship the ancestors tomorrow, and the scale of offering captives is unprecedentedly large, so that outsiders cannot see the joke, so he keeps this account in his heart and prepares to settle the accounts later?

Well, at present, this is the only explanation that is more reasonable.

After all, tomorrow's affairs are too important to tolerate any mistakes. Whoever makes mistakes will be waiting to die.

Wei Zheng is also a person who takes care of the general situation and will not make troubles on such joints.

It seemed that he was thinking too much. With Wei Zheng's character, how could he let him go?

Didn't you see that His Majesty's account was written down by him?

The so-called master humiliated his ministers to death.

The monarch is about to be punished, and his subjects will naturally be punished accordingly.

This is as it should be, and no one said anything.

Not to mention what these people thought, anyway, after experiencing the Li Shimin incident, Li Zhen went back to sleep.

When he was woken up, it was already dawn.

After dressing up, when Li Zhen and Wu Meiniang came to the Taimiao with their two cute babies, the Taimiao was surrounded by people who watched the excitement. Fortunately, Li Zhen had a special passage, otherwise it would not be so sure Can squeeze in.
