Datang: Only by resisting the decree can we become stronger

That night, Li Qiu lived in Changsun Wuji's residence.

Accompanying the eldest grandson Wuji and two people, they ate a big meal.

In addition to hot pot, there is also roasted whole lamb that Li Qiu wants to eat.

After eating this meal for an hour, Shooting Sirius drank nearly two altars.

A jar of wine at this time in the Tang Dynasty weighed about four catties.

Even if the degree is low, it must be around 31 or 32.

At the end of the drink, Li Qiu was drunk even with Lu Bu's tyrannical physique.

And at the wine table of Li Qiu and Changsun Wuji, the sleepy Changsun Chong was in charge of pouring the wine and chatting with him.

"Father, please drink less, you will have to go to court in less than two hours."

"My lord, drink more, anyway, you don't have to go to court tomorrow morning."

At this time, Changsun Wuji, who was slightly drunk, slapped Changsun Chong on the head.

"Bastard, what prince, that's your brother!"

Maybe it was because he could see that his father had drunk too much, so Chang Sun Chong could only smile wryly and nod, "Mm, um, yes, yes..."

Seeing him like this, Changsun Wuji, who was already drunk, couldn't help getting angry, and slapped him hard on the back again, then pointed at Li Qiu and said:

"Remember, kid, this is your own brother!"

"Do you understand?"

At this time, Chang Sun Chong could only smile apologetically at Li Qiu, and then persuade his father not to drink anymore...

Changsun Chong was a bit of a follower of his aunt, Empress Changsun.

Personality is very docile, easy-going, high emotional intelligence, and quite talented.

And without the slightest bit of ambition.

With his background and status, he never acted arrogantly.

It can be called the son-in-law with the best personality in Datang at that time.

Of course, at this time Changsun Chong had not yet married Princess Changle.

This night, they drank and enjoyed themselves.

But I don't know how many courtiers, after returning to the mansion, they lay down on the bed and told the maids and wives to quickly apply medicine and hot compresses to their knees.

Then, screaming for pain, scolding Li Qiu, and that stinky fish, Quan Wanji.

By the morning of the next day, almost everyone was yawning and extremely exhausted.

Most of the courtiers inside gritted their teeth and came up to the court.

As for Changsun Wuji?

Then there is no need to ask!

He smelled of alcohol all over his body, it was troublesome to walk in a straight line, his eyelids almost couldn't be opened...

Chapter 331 The Duo of Li Shimin and Changsun Wuji

Unsurprisingly, when Li Shimin arrived and went to court, the courtiers welcomed Li Qiu's memorabilia like a tsunami.

The words are called intense, and the reasons are called sufficient.

It can be seen that in order to be able to impeach and severely punish Li Qiu, these ministers worked hard last night.

After hearing their playbooks one by one, Li Shimin was also "longyan furious".

With a bang, it landed on the dragon case.

"What a Li Qiu!"

"How dare he be so nonsense and rude?!"

"Then Tai Chi Hall, is it a place where he wantonly makes noise and cooks hot pot?!"

"If something happened to Xiao Yu and other important ministers in the court, he can take the responsibility?!"

"And you, Changsun Wuji!"

"I've told you several times, find a stable old minister, and comfort these ministers."

"But you are lucky, why did you send Li Qiu there?"

"The most hateful thing is that you didn't even tell me..."

Afterwards, Li Shimin reprimanded Changsun Wuji.

Seeing that the eldest son, Sun Wuji, was such a big name, he lowered his head silently, and was reprimanded shamelessly, and the other ministers naturally fell silent.

If you stand up and speak out at this time, isn't that just disrespecting your parents, Mr. Sun?

Perhaps in the entire Tang Dynasty, only Li Shimin dared to do this to Changsun Wuji.

That is the current leader of the Guanlong noble group, the elder brother of Empress Changsun, who has the best relationship with Li Shimin and the most trusted court official.

The most important thing is that Changsun Wuji is indeed a very talented, very capable person.

I can't accept it.

After reprimanding Changsun Wuji, Li Shimin immediately took the opportunity to make a decision.

"According to my decree, Li Qiu will be resigned from the position of Minister of the Ministry of War, and he will be fined for three months."

"From now on, he is not allowed to be an official in Chang'an!"

"In addition, Na Quan Wanji committed a crime openly in front of the Taiji Hall, and was rude to the imperial court king."

"It's abominable, it's really detrimental to decency, demoted from Chang'an, and served as governor of Li Prefecture."

"Changsun Wuji also made mistakes due to improper use of others. The same fine is given for one month to show the effect."

The officials were naturally dissatisfied with Li Shimin's verdict.

Then Li Qiu, the title of King of Peking is higher than Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and others.

At the same time, he is also the governor of Youzhou, supervising the military and political power of the thirteen states, and these thirteen states are all his own fiefdoms.

To put it bluntly, it is not an exaggeration to be a local emperor.

Isn't it just tickling for you to dismiss him as a small fourth-rank servant of the military department?

And the three-month salary.

As far as Li Qiu's current net worth is concerned, the one-month profit of Furong Restaurant is probably much more than the three-month salary, right?

But just when the officials were dissatisfied and wanted to continue to accuse Li Qiu of being lightly punished, Li Shimin stared.

"Then Li Qiu was just assigned by someone to return to the Tai Chi Hall."

"He was just lying and being rude."

"Nothing worse."

"Now that the official position has been cut and the salary has been fined, what else do you want?"

"If you still have complaints, then go to Changsun Wuji. After all, Changsun Wuji sent Li Qiu there privately."

Seeing that Li Shimin took the attitude he should have, he pushed all the responsibility on Changsun Wuji's head.

Then their monarchs and ministers performed such a double reed together, what can all the ministers do?

……

On the other hand, after Li Qiu woke up in the morning, he said goodbye to the people in the mansion very politely.

Straight back to the Furong Garden.

Then he told Luo Kexin and Wu Jue what happened yesterday.

At this time, the division of inner house, middle house and outer house in Furong Garden has been done.

The tall brick wall has also been finished.

It looks magnificent and magnificent, much better than the rammed earth walls of the past.

It has to be said that without reaching that era, it is impossible to imagine the appearance of the buildings in Chang'an City at that time.

Both the city walls and the houses are made of yellow rammed earth.

Although the surface of the rammed earth is smooth and flat, no matter how it is done, it is still a yellow earth wall that cannot be seen at a glance.

Very LOW, not beautiful.

Still, the brick wall in Furong Garden looks comfortable today, and it is closer to the aesthetics of later generations.

So Li Qiu also planned to gradually replace all the palaces in the Furong Garden with brick walls in the future.

On the other hand, after retiring from the court, these ministers naturally refused to swallow this breath.

So, just as Fang Xuanling worried, he sent various people, as well as students and children from various noble families, to all corners and surrounding areas of Chang'an City.

Then began to further incite those people.

So much so that since noon, more and more people gathered at the gate of the imperial city.

They shouted that Fan Xing should be executed, and that people like Fan Xing, who are greedy for life and afraid of death, can't be allowed to continue to live.

For such a large group of people, it is impossible to drive them away, to reason with them, to tell Fan Xing's merits and demerits, but there is no way to explain it.

It wasn't until ten minutes before the curfew that all the people retreated one after another.

But early the next morning, countless people gathered at the entrance of the imperial city.

After a night of fermentation, the number of people going out was several times higher than yesterday.

Looking around, it is densely packed without seeing the edge.

Even many officials couldn't get out of the gate of the imperial city.

The commotion on this side was raging, and Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Wang Gui and others naturally knew about it.

But I can only worry secretly, no one has any good solution.

On the contrary, those gentry ministers who incited this group of people were quite proud of themselves.

This is called the inviolability of the will of the people.

In order to appease public opinion, I am afraid that Fan Xing must die if he does not die!

All the previous efforts of Li Qiu and others will be in vain.

On the third day, the number of people gathered at the gate of the imperial city also reached its peak.

Even many surrounding people rushed over to cheer.

Seeing that things have come to this, I'm afraid it's Fan Xing who can't deal with it.

But at noon, Li Qiu appeared on the high platform at the gate of the imperial city with Fan Xing, who was dressed in prison clothes, bound and haggard.

As soon as they saw Fan Xing, the people in the audience were furious and shouted to kill him and execute him.

It was seeing that Prince Li Qiu, who they respected the most and was the most popular in Chang'an City, was also on the stage, so they could not throw away rotten leaves and rotten eggs.

"My lord Li Qiu, a scoundrel like Fan Xing can't keep him!"

"Yes, Lord Li Qiu, killed Fan Xing to avenge the people of Suizhou City who were killed by him."

"Kill him, don't let him live!"

Chapter 332 Li Qiu, Swear

Just when tens of thousands of people gathered outside the imperial city shouted that Fan Xing was about to be executed.

There are also many descendants of the gentry, mixed in this crowd.

They followed the instructions and only waited for Li Qiu to speak up to defend Fan Xing.

At that time, they had already prepared in their stomachs, and the sonorous and powerful rebuttals they had rehearsed several times could come in handy.

I believe that with the instigation of so many of them, even if Li Qiu has a hundred mouths, no matter how high his prestige among the common people is, it is useless.
