The Human Emperor Chapter 5: The first battle!
On the other side, Li Taiyi raised his eyebrows, but looked as usual.
The scene in front of him did not surprise him, he had just left the Royal Racecourse with his forefoot, and the four princes had informed Second Imperial Prince Li Chengyi.
With Li Chengyi's character, this is an opportunity that is difficult to sew for thousands of years. Will he let it go easily.
But if he thought he would be put to death, he was wrong.
Li Taiyi turned his eyes and ignored the big brother Li Chengyi, who was the "generous speech" in the hall, but turned his head to look at the Father Emperor on the hall, the golden lacquered dragon throne.
In this hall, only one person can really determine his destiny.
"Inverse son, what else can you say?"
The Emperor Tang's face was like frost, and his expression did not relax at all.
"Father Emperor, Erchen did kill Huo Yuan, but everything Erren did was not only a private complaint, but also for Great Tang!"
Li Taiyi bowed his head with a graceful expression Luoluo, and the sound was even louder. Even when facing the blade edge-like gaze of Manchu Wenwu, he calmly and calmly did not panic.
As soon as this sentence came out, all the palace ministers looked stunned. Even the Emperor Tang on the golden lacquered dragon throne, his expression fluctuated slightly.
Xuan Geer today seems completely different from usual.
At least, he can say this in front of the group of officials, which is beyond everyone's expectations.
However, in just a moment, everyone reacted.
"Third Imperial Prince, you dare to discern! The facts are there, in the presence of your majesty, you dare to be arrogant, nonsense, and hopeless!"
"For Great Tang? Are you also killing for Great Tang? Your majesty, this matter must not be tolerated!"
"The prince commits the same crime as the common people. The prince slaughtered the Royal Court commander. This kind of evil acts must be severely punished. Otherwise, what is the majesty of the country's laws? How can it serve the public?"
"Third Imperial Prince, you can think about it, deceive His Majesty, this is a crime plus one grade!"
......
In a short time, the group officials were indignant. Great Tang governed Qingming with officials, and Tang law was up to the Tang Emperor, and the people of the group officials must abide by it. The behavior of Third Imperial Prince has obviously committed public anger.
In the main hall, seeing this scene, Li Chengyi's face did not change color, but there was a slight smile in the corner of his mouth, only looking at today's situation, his third brother, fearing that he would definitely die.
On the other side, Li Taiyi looked as usual, and slowly glanced over the ministers, then smiled, and he was confident:
"Father Emperor, I don’t know if you remember, in January of 14 years, Quzhou floods, I am greedy for that disaster relief silver coin?"
"This matter has already fallen to the ground, what do you mention about this?"
Tang Huang frowned, gravely says.
"Third Imperial Prince, things have passed so long, don't tell me you still need to quibble?"
In the main hall, the group ministers also have a bad face. This Third Imperial Prince is really hopeless.
"Father Emperor, the thing that year, it is not the children who really greedy the disaster relief silver coin, but Huo Yuan!"
Li Taiyi Langlang Road.
"!!!"
The voice just fell, and there was silence in the hall. Then it fell like a huge stone.
Li Taiyi's words were not expected by anyone.
Even Li Chengyi in the main hall was shocked, and there was a trace of surprise in the steep.
For some reason, he suddenly felt awkward.
"Shiro, do you have evidence?"
On the golden lacquered dragon throne, the Emperor Tang's expression is also more dignified.
"Father Emperor, the son-in-law intercepted a batch of account books earlier, which detailed the whereabouts of the disaster-stricken officer’s silver, and everything was inseparable from Huo Yuan, and then the son-in-law conducted a private investigation. , And it turned out to be very involved."
Li Taiyi lowered his head, gravely says.
"Because this matter is of great importance, the son-in-law submitted all the collected information to Ministry of Justice seven days ago. Why? Didn’t don't tell me Brother receive it?"
Speaking of the last sentence, Li Taiyi turned to look at Li Chengyi in the hall.
In just one sentence, Li Chengyi jumped in his heart, and the whole person changed his face.
He was trusted by the Tang Emperor and had just been able to participate in politics, and Ministry of Justice is currently responsible for precisely.
Regarding the issue of Zhenzhen, he was investigated by him before.
More importantly, not long ago, Ministry of Justice did receive an account book and a letterhead, but little is known about it, and Huo Yuan turned to him again, already in his camp , So Li Chengyi made people detain to keep Huo Yuan.
Later, Li Chengyi even sent someone to check the tail left by Huo Yuan, who actually submitted the account information, and where was the information collected from.
It's just that no matter how he investigates, he doesn't find the other party's clue.
He didn’t expect that he was the third brother he hadn’t kept in mind!
"I--"
All eyes were on the eyes, so many ministers were watching, and even Li Chengyi couldn't help but stunned for a while, and there was no response.
However, before he was able to explain him, Li Taiyi immediately said:
"No, the elder brother has always been fair, and even the courtiers have always admired it. This matter cannot be related to the elder brother. don't tell me Someone has worked under the eyes of the elder brother to detain the submitted information? Is this? Great disrespect!"
When I turned the words, Li Chengyi, Second Imperial Prince, looked ugly.
Li Taiyi's words are like swords and arrows.
If he says he doesn’t know, he is incompetent and has negative Father Emperor expectations. If he knows, it means that he has no prince and knows the law and breaks the law. This is the crime of bullying the king.
Regardless of whether they admit it or deny it, Li Taiyi is already in front of the group officials, especially Father Emperor, and will be pushed into the water, falling into an extremely passive position.
This is extremely bad for him.
Sure enough, when he heard Li Taiyi's words, Tang Emperor's eyes were cold, and the cold eyes were like the cold wind in winter swept toward His Highness Li Chengyi.
"Shengyi, did this happen?"
The Emperor Tang's voice thundered like thunder, and came into everyone's ears.
Feeling Tang Huang’s eyes, Li Chengyi stiffened, but his reaction was quick, immediately bowed his head and saluted Tang Tang, solemnly:
"Father Emperor, children have not received such account book!"
Li Chengyi lowered his head, everyone could not see his expression, but only he knew how shocked he was at the moment.
Today’s Xuan Ge'er felt too wrong for him. When did he become so sharp?
Do you still know your third brother?
What's more terrible is that because of his previous coquettish image, everyone looks down on him, and if he doesn't put him in his eyes, how can he guard against him.
Who can think of doing so much in private!
don't tell me said that he has been playing the role of a pig and a tiger, and that is what he really is.
If this is the case, then this kid's astuteness is too deep and terrible.
However, if he thought that he could upset himself, he would have thought it too simple.
"Father Emperor, officials of Ministry of Justice, conscientious, loyal and honest, this is known to Father Emperor and all the ministers, even if they did not show up, then it must have a reason, or the book itself is not enough I believe that it is too much play, so I will not post it. After all, Ministry of Justice receives a lot of account book every year, and almost all of them are piled up."
Li Chengyi gravely says.
In the hall, all the ministers nodded. Ministry of Justice does have a lot of affairs. It manages nearly ten million square kilometers of land in the entire Central Divine Continent, involving tens of thousands of people. There are indeed many account book.
And, in fact, regardless of the private enmity of some communiques, the account book and Ministry of Justice of other people are intentionally arranged, and it is impossible to check everything.
"Of course, if Ministry of Justice did not make mistakes, there is a possibility that the third brother did not send it at all, or the third brother wanted to do this, but the people under his hands did not do anything well, and did not send it to other places, or to other places. Now."
"After all... this is not the first time that the third brother knows someone unknown."
At the end, Li Chengyi stared at Li Taiyi and coldly smiled.
Huo Yuan killed by Li Taiyi, in the final analysis, didn't he serve him at first?
This point, other people don’t know, will Father Emperor not know?
More importantly, as long as he hasn’t received Ministry of Justice, he can do nothing about him?
"Sanlang?"
Hearing here, Emperor Tang's expression suddenly became serious, and said coldly.
"Hum!"
Li Taiyi stared at Li Chengyi with a sneer and smiled. His Second Imperial Prince could not help but think of him as too simple. Really thought he could be confused by three or two sentences?
If he is really unprepared, how can he be in broad daylight, with all eyes on him, shoot Huo Yuan?
"Father Emperor, the sons dare not deceive, but fortunately, in order to prevent the loss, the sons submit only a copy."
Li Taiyi immediately bowed:
"The real originals are still in the hands of the children, and the children have ordered people to take the originals outside the palace."
As soon as the voice fell, I only heard Li Taiyi's hands "slap", and the sound of a wheel turning sounded from outside the hall. the next moment, I saw three eunuchs appearing outside Hall of Supreme Harmony with three small carts.
"This, this..."
Seeing three small carts and books stacked on top of the mountain, the hall was buzzing.
Vibrations appeared in the eyes of all the group officials, especially the unmoved Grand Preceptor and Grand Tutor in the main hall, and a subconscious glance at Li Taiyi. The look was quite unexpected.
As for Li Chengyi, although he still tries his best to keep calm, his heart is already ugly.
Everything in front of him is totally beyond his expectations.
He did not expect that Li Taiyi was fully prepared to this point.
On the other side, the chief **** beside Tang Huang was instructed, and immediately walked quickly towards the three small carts, took a book respectively, and returned to the Zhu Qi square platform, with both hands. To Tang Huang.
Tang Emperor took it, just turned his eyes, and his face suddenly became extremely green, snapped, threw the book on the ground, and said angrily:
"Gu Lianqing, Liu Shiming, Fei Qi..., you are so brave! I think you are so valued. You even stole the treasury and misappropriated public food!"
"Your Majesty spares your life, Your Majesty spares your life!"
Without speaking, several middle-aged officials dressed in purple robes looked as if they were standing on their knees, kowtowing and begging for mercy.
If you look closely, half of the officials in Hall of Supreme Harmony actually kneeled out. Obviously, with so many account books, the content is too detailed, which they can’t resist.
In a flash, Tang Huang’s face was even more gloomy.
"Your Majesty, corruption is a felony, and since the Royal Court appropriation continues, the time involved, the officials involved in this matter must be at least two years, of which the size of the officials has changed, and this is more than the name!"
"Your Majesty, this matter is very important, and it concerns the face of the royal family. It must be thoroughly investigated!"
At this time, Grand Preceptor Grand Tutor standing next to the Tang Emperor opened.
They thought that this Imperial Court was about the review of the imperial prince, but they never thought that in the end, they even involved a serious case of corruption.
Corruption is silver coin of the country, and silver coin of the people is corrupt, they will never appease!
"Your Majesty, the minister suggested that you thoroughly investigate this matter! All officials involved in the case will be severely punished and will never be tolerated!"
"Secondary Minister!"
"Secondary Minister!"
......
After hearing the words of Grand Preceptor Grand Tutor, many officials went out and said in a voice.
"Dan Imperial Censor, this matter will be handled by you! Be sure to get all these people out!"
After Tang Tang pondered for a moment, his voice thundered, resounding throughout Hall of Supreme Harmony.
Emperor's fury is like dragon fury!
In the face of so much evidence, Emperor Tang was furious, and that kind of pressure was unbearable for all of them.
"Xuan'er, no matter what your reason is, you can't kill Royal Court officials. Although according to the Great Tang calendar, it should have been cut, but it is because of what happened to you, solved the serious case of corruption, and saved the country for the time being. Death penalty!"
"However, this kind of bad, must not be opened without permission, death sin is exempt, live sin is inevitable. Starting today, you confine Yulong Palace. Within three months, without my order, you are strictly forbidden to step out of the hall. "
"Thank you Father Emperor!"
Li Taiyi heard the words and immediately knelt down to thank her.
Everything today is as he expected. In March of confinement, it is already the smallest influence.
On the other side, watching the official dragged out by Jinwu Guard, an official named Zi or Zipao or Feipao or Lupao, Second Imperial Prince Li Chengyi was stunned on the spot.
He grabbed Li Taiyi's handle deliberately and summoned it. It was okay to be raked by him. The camp that he finally pulled up was even beaten by Li Taiyi.
Moreover, what he did not expect was that he paid such a big price that Li Taiyi was just being imprisoned.
In an instant, Li Chengyi felt extremely resentful.
Looking at Li Taiyi’s back, Li Chengyi gritted his teeth:
"Li Sanlang, you will pay the price, this is not over yet!"
......
Take the palace bus, leave from Hall of Supreme Harmony, and return to the Jade Dragon Palace, the night is cold and the depth is more serious.
Li Taiyi sat on the bed of golden sandalwood inlaid with gold panlong, closed her eyes slightly, and looked carefully. In the void, a spiritual force from the outside to the inside, with the naked eye Speed, quickly rushed into Li Taiyi's body.
cultivation!
Li Taiyi knows that his current body is too weak. If he wants to change Great Tang and lead Great Tang to reverse the world, in addition to changing everyone’s impression of him and gaining a position on Imperial Court, he must improve his physique and get higher. Realm.
His current cultivation base only has True Martial Realm, while Great Tang generals are at least Profound Martial Realm, he must first find a way to enter Profound Martial Realm!
"Boom boom!"
While Li Taiyi was thinking, a soft and rhythmic knock on the door rang.
