Datang: Empress mother-in-law sent Li Er to test me

Check it out.

There's always someone to give him a clue.

The bottom man is still the emperor!

Not to mention all the officials, even Tang Jian himself did not believe that there was such an imperial decree.

But Li Er said that there must be.

Even if not, wouldn't it be enough to write a copy in the next dynasty?

At this moment, Zhang Dun was also a little surprised. Did Li Er cooperate so much?

No matter how simple it is in the emperor's heart.

In such a matter, it is impossible to be sheltered by the emperor.

Then there is only one possibility...

The old man helped!

Zhang Dun thought about it, he must have said something to Li Er, that's why he let Li Er help him behind his back.

"Even so, it is true that Yu Shaoqing died in the prison of Jingzhao Mansion."

A censor stuck his neck and said, "Even if there are tens of thousands of reasons and excuses, if the imperial court orders an official to die because of Ping Kangbo, Ping Kangbo cannot escape the blame!"

Who is this person?Why are you so stubborn and can't see that His Majesty is also on my side?Dare to bump up?

Zhang Dun took a look at the censor servant, saw him with a long beard, secretly noted his appearance, and said solemnly: "Benbo is to blame, but can Duke Zhang be spared?"

In an instant, Zhang Liang looked at the censor with sharp eyes, and shouted: "Li Yue, what do you mean?!"

"I don't mean what you mean, sir."

Shi Yushi Li Yue trembled all over. Zhang Liang is a mad dog in the court. If he offends him at this time, he may not even have a foothold in the court in the future.

"How can this matter be blamed on Mr. Zhang?"

Changsun Wuji suddenly said:

"There are chivalrous men in this world. When a chivalrous man sees injustice, he draws his sword to help and kills the villain. Is it necessary to blame the person who taught this chivalrous man? There is no such reason!"

After finishing speaking, he glanced at Zhang Dun first, then bowed slightly to Li Er who was behind the screen, and said in a deep voice:

"Kill people to pay for their lives, and debts to pay back money. Your Majesty, Zhou Ming, the jailer of the Jingzhao Mansion, killed the imperial court official. This person should be severely punished to serve as an example to others."

"Tang Mansion Governor Ping Kangbo, one is the Governor of Jingzhao Mansion, and the other is the Shaoyin of Jingzhao Mansion, who are in charge of all the government affairs of Jingzhao Mansion."

"Such a horrific murder happened in the prison. These two people cannot escape the responsibility. I think they should be severely punished."

With a quick swipe, all civil and military officials looked at Li Er.

Li Er was silent for a few seconds, then slowly said: "Designation, Zhou Ming will be sentenced to beheaded immediately, and at noon tomorrow, he will be taken to the West Market to be beheaded."

"Slave obeys the order." The eunuch standing aside hastily bowed.

Li Er's eyes were deep through the screen, staring at Changsun Wuji, and said: "Zhang Aiqing, and Tang Aiqing, before they acted, there was an imperial decree. It was I who asked them to secretly investigate the crimes committed by the officials of Chang'an and Wannian counties. Things."

"They are guilty, should I be guilty too?"

Changsun Wuji said without hesitation: "Your Majesty is doing it for the sake of the country, for the sake of the country, out of good intentions, how can he be guilty?"

Li Er said indifferently: "Zhang Aiqing and Tang Aiqing are contributing to my affairs, and they are also planning for the country, the society, the country and the people. How can you let me have the heart to condemn them?"

"Furthermore, the two of them have made great contributions to the Tang Dynasty, so I can't convict them."

Did they contribute to Datang?

Hearing this, the civil and military officials suddenly turned their heads and looked at Zhang Dun and Tang Jian in astonishment. When did they contribute to Datang?Why don't we know?

"Come on, bring things up!"

Soon, Li Er's shouting sound resounded in the Tai Chi Hall.

Chapter 405 Abandon the car to save the handsome man!Tang Jian collapsed, it's all because I don't have a backstage

Soon, two young eunuchs in eunuch robes walked into the hall holding a brightly colored tray.

What is this?

The civil and military officials looked at the things on the tray in confusion.

It was a palm-sized brown bump.

All civil and military officials looked at each other, and asked each other with their eyes if they knew what it was, but all the responses they got were shaking their heads.

"Do you know what this is?"

Li Er's voice came from behind the screen and rang in everyone's ears.

Seeing that all civil and military officials were silent, Li Er burst out word by word:

"This is a potato."

"It's a fetish that Mu Qingcang brought back from overseas."

Fetish?The princes in the court opened their eyes wide, this word is too piercing!

Changsun Wuji couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty, what is a god?"

Li Er said lightly: "Shangsun Shangshu, I ask you, how much rice can be produced from one mu of fertile land?"

"In a good year, the rice output is about 250 catties, and in a poor year, the rice output is about 150 catties."

Changsun Wuji said without hesitation.

Although he was the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, when the Li family raised troops, he had been managing the grain and grass in the army, and he had long been familiar with the matter of grain and grass.

Li Er asked again: "Is this year a good year or a bad year?"

"It's an apology year."

Changsun Wuji continued to respond.

Li Er pointed to the potatoes on the tray in the hands of the two eunuchs through the screen, and said:

"When this thing was harvested, it weighed [-] catties."

bang!

The sound of wooden wats falling to the ground one after another in the hall.

At this moment, all the civil and military officials couldn't care less about picking up the decorations used in the court, and looked at the inconspicuous brown bump in disbelief.

Changsun Wuji's heart trembled even more.

How much do you gain?

One thousand two hundred catties? !

All the officials who came back to their senses gasped one after another.

Li Er snorted coldly: "There are so many crops in apologetic years. If the next year is a bumper year, wouldn't one mu of potatoes be more than [-] catties?"

"You say, is this object a divine object?"

"It's a god, it's definitely a god!!" Hubu Shilang suddenly walked to the middle of the hall, looked at the potatoes with burning eyes, and said excitedly: "This thing can produce several times more than five grains, what is it if it's not a god? "

The officials of the household department present were more and more excited.

They manage the money and food of the court.

On weekdays, everyone is like a miser. When they see the government officials who come to ask for money and food, they wish to fight him.

why?

Because the Datang treasury is very empty!

It's hard for a clever woman to cook without rice, and they can't wait to break a penny in half.

Now suddenly there is an extra crop in the court that can produce [-] catties per mu.

Doesn't it mean that the people planted in the ground, the more they reap, the more taxes the court gets?

Don't they have more money and food in their hands?

The civil and military officials were also very excited at the moment.

They think more, the country is based on the people, and the people depend on food. Only enough food can feed more troops.

With more troops, you will be able to expand your territory without fear of foreign enemies!

And more food also means that more people can be recruited to build bridges and pave roads!

The so-called prosperity is based on "grain"!

At this moment, a cold hum came from the screen.

It was like pouring cold water on the heads of civil and military officials, calming everyone down.

Now is not the time to talk about the "Golden Age".

At the moment, it is time to discuss what crimes should be charged to Zhang Dun and Tang Jian'an.

Changsun Wuji frowned, staring at Li Er standing behind the screen, his heart beating.

At this moment, Li Er suddenly took out the potatoes.

Obviously to exonerate Zhang Dun!

"You also know now that it is a fetish."

"Zhang Aiqing found such a fetish for me and the court, but you want me to punish him severely because of his dereliction of duty?"

As Changsun Wuji expected, Li Er's voice came from behind the screen to everyone's ears, and every sound was an excuse for Zhang Dun.

"How do you want me to punish him severely? By strangulation or beheading?"

Li Er said in a cold voice: "Kill him, who among you lovers has the vision to discover such a fetish?"

The civil and military officials lowered their heads and remained silent.

"Are you all dumb? Talk!"

Li Er didn't intend to let them go, and shouted violently.

"Your Majesty, rest your anger."

Feng Deyi made a slight bow, bowed his head and cupped his hands, and said: "I think that Ping Kangbo has the merit of offering potatoes, even if there is a crime of dereliction of duty, he should not be punished. Not only should he not be punished, but he should also be rewarded."

Li Er is now determined to protect Zhang Dun.

Plus the potatoes that Zhang Dun gave to the court.

It is impossible to move him!

Then you have to move others!

Feng Deyi glanced at Tang Jian out of the corner of his eye, and said in a deep voice: "However, Tang Jian, as the governor of Jingzhao Prefecture, cannot escape the blame! He should be punished severely!"

At this moment, Tang Jian was looking at Zhang Dun enviously. Look, what do you mean there are people above!

Hearing Feng Deyi's words, Tang Jian was taken aback, looked at him in astonishment, understood his words, and immediately flew into a rage.

Damn it, Zhang Dun arrested him, or Zhang Dun sent someone to prison, it's none of my business, you can't just catch me and bully me just because I have no background in the court!

Feng Deyi didn't even look at Tang Jian who was glaring at him, and continued with a loud voice:

"As the governor of Jingzhao Mansion, Tang Jian is the boss of Jingzhao Mansion Shaoyin and Ping Kangbo Zhang Dun! If a person dies in the prison of Jingzhao Mansion, Ping Kangbo can be exonerated, but Tang Jian can't! Your Majesty, please make a clear decision! "

After finishing speaking, Feng Deyi spoke righteously and spoke loudly.

"Your Majesty, this minister agrees!"

"Your Majesty, what Duke Feng Mi said is true, I second the proposal!"

"Tang Jian cannot escape the responsibility for Yu Shaoqing's death, please His Majesty punish him severely!"

All of a sudden, the officials came to their senses and bowed their heads in agreement.

They couldn't join Zhang Dun because Zhang Dun held too much weight in Li Er's heart.

Secondly, the potatoes were offered by him.

Since Li Er was determined to protect them, they couldn't twist their thighs with thin arms, so they had to settle for the next best thing.
