The officials with five surnames and seven wangs stood there in a daze, unable to believe that Li Shimin had drawn up the imperial decree in advance and the letter of war against the aristocratic family.
Li Shimin slapped the copy angrily, and said angrily, "Hmph! How dare you wrong me!"
"Look at what you've done!"
"You are in vain for the Han people, you are in vain for the courtiers of the Tang Dynasty!"
"Bring it up!"
at the same time.
A team of Tiance troops walked in, carrying stacks of criminal evidence.
"Take a good look. This criminal evidence needs to be filled in a basket. I can't count it. I can't read it all!"
"Do you think it's that clean when you stand on the shore!"
"I advise some of you, don't think that the Tang Dynasty is weak and there are many powerful enemies, and you will think that I will not dare to move you!"
"Tiance Army!"
"exist!"
Tiance's army sounded like a bell, waking up the dizzy ministers in the court hall.
At this moment, Li Shimin really felt the authority of the emperor.At this moment, Li Shimin could really see the panic in the eyes of the officials with five surnames and seven wangs.
He himself can't remember how many years, he has gradually changed from a bloody Qin king to an indecisive emperor.
With the improvement of his status, as his status rose, he became more and more afraid.
Since Li Chengqian did many great things that shook the world, Li Shimin was gradually impressed by his freedom, free and easy, fearlessness, bravery, perseverance, and integrity.
It wasn't until today that he really realized that Li Chengqian was the child who most resembled him, and that Li Chengqian was the hope of the entire Tang Dynasty.
He has asked himself countless times, are internal and external troubles really the reason for his cowardice?
He now owns the entire Tang Dynasty, but what did King Qin own back then?It's nothing more than a heart full of blood.
"Put these rebellious officials and thieves! Detain me!"
"Yes!"
"His Majesty……"
"Your Majesty, you are wronged..."
The screams of the Lu officials were like basins of bone-chilling cold water, pouring on these officials who had admonished the crown prince.
Chapter 44 Your Majesty, Your Majesty
Soon...
Li Shimin turned around and sat back on the dragon chair, "Is there anyone else who wants to play? I, I will listen carefully."
immediately……
Zheng Chenghong, the servant of the Ministry of Punishment, stood up, "Chen, I have a book to play!"
heard...
In the court hall, there was an uproar.
The Zheng family of Xingyang is really not afraid of death.
The Lu family has just been prosecuted and the accomplices have been arrested. The evidence of this crime is almost piled up, and they dare to talk about it.
I don't know if Zheng Chenghong is really stupid or fake.
Li Shimin looked gloomy, and looked at Zheng Chenghong coldly, "Zheng Shilang, what do you want to play!"
Between the words, he wished to kill him immediately.
Isn't the imperial decree enough to overwhelm them?
"Your Majesty thinks that although His Royal Highness the crown prince lives in the temple and is the crown prince, he can defend against the Turks outside the city of Liangzhou and quell the rebellion in Fanyang city. A crown prince who is so concerned about the country and the people, and a prince who is so benevolent and righteous, is it your majesty's commendation?" It's too light."
"Chen, I implore Your Majesty to increase the rewards of His Highness the Crown Prince, so as not to chill the hearts of the people of the world."
Zheng Chenghong fell to his knees with a plop, and sincerely complained for Li Chengqian.
"My lord, please Your Majesty..."
"My lord, please Your Majesty..."
"My lord, please..."
As Zheng Chenghong fell to his knees, all the officials of the Zheng family with five surnames and Qiwang all stood up and asked for a reward for Li Chengqian.
now……
Including Li Shimin, everyone in the court hall looked bewildered.
They envisioned countless pictures and countless results.
But what they never thought of was that the Zheng family, who had five surnames and seven favorites, actually bowed to the imperial power.
A thousand-year-old family and a dynasty of flowing water are not casually talked about.
The five surnames and Qiwang look down on the royal family and Li Shimin in their bones.
Even the Li family of Longxi and the Li family of Zhaojun disdain to intermarry with the royal family.
Li Shimin's position in our hearts can be imagined.
But today, Mrs. Zheng knelt down in front of the royal family, lowered her proud head, and asked for credit for Li Chengqian.
It was the first time they had seen such a humble attitude from the five surnames and Qiwang.
Gradually……
The ministers finally saw the clues. Among the officials headed by Wang Mingyuan who impeached the prince just now, there was no one from the Zheng family.
Hear this.
Li Shimin's mouth was about to burst into joy, "Haha, Zheng Shilang is right."
"I want to reward the prince heavily."
"Chen Lin, drafting the decree, Li Chengqian, the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, has contributed a lot to the extermination of the Lu family's rebels and the investigation of the case of embezzling ink pensions... Reward a hundred taels of gold, ten dendrobiums of pearls, and brocade..."
Li Shimin hadn't been this happy for a long time. The last time Li Chengqian led his army to defeat the Turks outside the city of Liangzhou.
This time, it was Li Chengqian who led the army to destroy the Lu family, shocking the five surnames and Qiwang.
Although, Li Shimin still can't see whether the Zheng family is really willing to join the royal family.
But in the battle with the aristocratic family, they have already established an advantage.
Wang Mingyuan turned around and looked at Zheng Chenghong, who was kneeling on the ground with a sincere face, his eyes were red and he was furious.
The Zheng family actually betrayed the century-old covenant of five surnames and seven wangs.
Among them, they intermarried with each other, and a close relationship network had already tightly bound the five surnames and seven Wangs together.
The Zheng family will pay a huge price for openly taking refuge in the royal family.
He really couldn't figure it out, would the Zheng family really give up the millennium inheritance?
"Your Majesty Shengming..."
As soon as the decree came out, all the ministers stood up and flattered Li Shimin.
The early morning ended in an ending that was beyond everyone's expectations.
now……
Li Chengqian has already returned to Chang'an City, to the prince's other courtyard.
"His Royal Highness, this is all that happened in the early court."
"You are now a man of the Tang Dynasty. They call you the God of War in the Tang Dynasty, the nemesis of the family, and the death god of the Turks."
Beside Li Chengqian, Qin Feng, Zhan Shi of the Prince's Mansion, told him everything that happened in the early court.
By the way, Xiao Xiao patted his ass.
Li Chengqian was lying on the rocking chair, drinking tea, "Hehe, according to what you said, the Zheng family of Xingyang intends to join the royal family?"
Qin Fengdao: "According to what I know, the Zheng family meant this. After the court retreated early, they still sent someone to the Prince's Courtyard, saying that they would come to pay their respects to His Highness in the afternoon. I hope His Highness will give them a chance."
"His Royal Highness, look, see or not."
moment……
Li Chengqian thought for a while and said: "See, why didn't you see me. I'm not a lady of everyone, so are you still afraid of meeting people?"
Since the Zheng family intends to seek refuge, Li Chengqian couldn't be happier.
Civil wars will always consume Datang's national power.
And as the prince of the Tang Dynasty, he couldn't do many things by himself.
If Zheng Shi is willing to join him, he can indeed save himself a lot of trouble.
But most importantly, he wanted to see Zheng's sincerity and attitude.
If their attitude is not humble enough, their surrender is not sincere enough.
He didn't mind, and led the white-robed army to Xingyang for a walk.
Qin Feng said: "Then Weichen sent people to report, and asked them to come over to pay his respects to His Highness."
Li Chengqian said lightly: "Well, go, I am waiting for them here."
Afternoon...
Zheng Chenghong, the servant of the Ministry of punishment, led an old man in black robes through the palace to the prince's courtyard.
Zheng Chenghong said to the guards at the entrance of the Prince's Courtyard: "Please tell me that Zheng Chenghong, the servant of the Ministry of Punishment, is here to visit His Royal Highness the Prince."
a little while...
Qin Feng came out, "Zheng Shilang, His Royal Highness is here to invite you."
The two followed Qin Feng and entered the prince's courtyard.
In the main hall of the Prince's Courtyard.
Li Chengqian sat at the top seat, sipping tea.
As soon as Zheng Chenghong and two entered the door, they knelt down on the ground.
In the Tang Dynasty, there was no strict ritual of kneeling and worshiping between the monarch and his ministers, let alone between the minister and the prince.
It can be seen that Zheng Chenghong has begun to lower his identity.
Beside Zheng Chenghong, the old man in black robe took off his hat, and spoke first, "Caomin, the patriarch of the Zheng clan, Zheng Yingjie greets His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
"My minister, Zheng Chenghong, Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, is meeting His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
As soon as these words came out, even Li Chengqian was shocked.
The Zheng family actually sent the patriarch to come here in person?
Li Chengqian didn't change his face, and said lightly: "You two, get up and talk, and give me a seat."
"Thank you, His Royal Highness."
The two said and stood up.
Zheng Yingjie said: "His Royal Highness, this time, the old man came to visit suddenly and failed to report in time. Please don't blame him, Your Highness."
The words were full of humbleness, which gave Li Chengqian enough face.
Li Chengqian waved his hand, "No problem! If you have anything to say, just tell me."
After entering the Prince's Court, Li Chengqian was very grateful for Zheng Yingjie's actions.
His attitude made Li Chengqian very comfortable.
This is what surrender should look like, unlike Lu Qingtian, the patriarch of the Lu clan, who looks like he's under attack.
Besides, Li Chengqian is not an unreasonable person, as long as he sincerely takes refuge in himself, he will treat each other with courtesy.
Zheng Yingjie said: "Yes, His Royal Highness, the grassroots will just say it straight."
