People in Datang have been expelled from school

Chapter 499

The team headed towards Chengtianmen, Li Tai was still asking questions all the way, "You came up with the question, Li Zheng, you must know the answer, right?"

Li Zheng sighed: "Actually, this question is quite simple, just don't fall into the trap of thinking."

"In the trap of thinking?"

Li Tai was thinking, a very simple sentence, a very short question.

After careful analysis, such a short question is indeed full of various twists and turns, and it is easy to fall into a maze of indistinguishable relationships.

When they came to Chengtian Gate, Qin Qiong and Yu Chigong were standing here.

Li Zheng stepped forward and said, "I have seen General Qin Qiong and General Yuchi Gong."

Qin Qiong nodded and said: "It's been so many years, and you have grown up, so don't be out of tune in the future."

Li Zheng nodded repeatedly and said, "Kid keep it in mind."

Yu Chigong and Qin Qiong stepped aside, "Go in, you will go in alone."

Li Tai also said, "We are waiting for you here."

Stepping forward, Li Zheng walked into the Chengtian Gate.

This is the first time entering the palace.

Enter Chengtian Gate and move forward all the way, and it suddenly becomes clear that this is the building complex of the Imperial Palace.

It's different from what I thought, and it's much more spectacular than the TV dramas of later generations.

Sure enough, TV shows are all lies.

At a glance, it is about 2000 meters away from Tai Chi Hall.

He took another step towards Tai Chi Hall.

Li Shimin was also sitting in the Tai Chi Hall. From the inside of the hall, he could see a figure approaching step by step from a distance.

The officials of all ministries in the Taiji Hall are here.

Until Li Zheng's figure disappeared from sight, Li Shimin knew that he was very close to the steps of the main hall.

The Tai Chi Hall is very quiet, so quiet that you can hear a needle drop.

The sound of footsteps gradually came, and after walking for nearly an hour, Li Zheng appeared in front of the hall.

Li Shimin stared at Li Zheng who was dressed in red, and said softly, "Come in."

Three steps at a time, Li Zheng walked into the Taiji Hall. All the officials standing here were dressed in official uniforms, only Li Zheng was wearing a red dress.

It's like a little red in an ink painting, which is particularly eye-catching.

Before stepping forward, Li Zheng saluted slightly and said, "Meet Your Majesty."

Cheng Yaojin on the side winked vigorously, as if saying that etiquette is wrong.

Li Zheng also noticed Cheng Yaojin's eyes and asked curiously: "Huh? General Cheng, what's wrong with your eyes?"

Withdrawing his eyes, seeing Li Shimin's displeased expression, Cheng Yaojin immediately stood still, closed his eyes without moving, and immediately entered into a state of trance, like a wood carving.

The atmosphere at the scene was a bit strange. Li Zheng glanced around and was about to say something.

A speech officer walked out of the court.

"Your Majesty! I report to Li Zheng, Duke of Jingyang County."

The voice fell, which made people feel refreshed.

Li Shimin said: "Speak."

The speaker said: "Li Zheng, the Duke of Jingyang County, harvested grain before the arrival of envoys from various countries."

Hearing what the speaker said, Li Zheng became more and more uncomfortable, and quickly said, "Your words are wrong."

The speaker in front of him turned to look at Li Zheng and said, "What's wrong?"

"The food is what people are willing to sell to me, and the price is fair, even His Majesty today..."

"Cough cough..."

Li Shimin coughed, and Li Zheng said again: "I even collected the old grain for the court. I wasted some old grain for the court. What's wrong?"

The speaker said, "Your Majesty, I haven't finished my sentence yet."

Li Shimin nodded and continued.

The officer said again: "Jingyang County Lord first harvested a lot of grain, and when the envoys from various countries arrived in Chang'an, he sold the grain wantonly to seek benefits from it."

Li Zheng smiled and said, "This old man has a good name."

"My surname is Lu."

"People with five surnames from the Lu family?"

Li Zheng asked again in a low voice.

As soon as this remark came out, the atmosphere in the Tai Chi Hall immediately became a little weird. Everyone knew that the relationship between Li Zheng and the five surnames was not good.

Many people understand in their hearts that the relationship between Li Zheng and the five surnames has always been incompatible.

This started when Li Zheng refused the solicitation of the five surnames.

People of the five surnames wished they could swallow Li Zhengsheng alive.

The speaker stood upright and said: "The old man's background has nothing to do with you, Li Zheng. Your majesty's official position is handpicked by your majesty. What you say and do is for the sake of the country and the country of the Tang Dynasty."

He went on to say: "Your Majesty, the Great Tang is based in the Central Plains. When the countries came to court, it was time to make friends with all nations, but Li Zheng did business from it and made personal gains in it. Such actions will make the countries and nations treat our Great Tang people. Your Majesty, please take Li Zheng into Dali Temple, thoroughly investigate Li Zheng's family property, and make friends with other countries again to show the great Tang's wishes."

Cheng Yaojin was still standing motionless, with his eyes closed as if he had fallen asleep.

The hall is very quiet, there is no excuse for any crimes to be committed.

People with five surnames want to punish Li Zheng to death.

Li Shimin nodded and said, "Li Zheng, do you have anything to say?"

Li Zheng took a step forward, "Brother Lu, you keep saying that I am seeking personal gain from it. This is what they are willing to buy and I am willing to sell. Maybe I am forced to buy and sell."

The officer said: "As far as I know, Li Zheng's ten-dollar old grain was sold to the Tubo people for sixty dollars a bushel. Is there such a thing?"

Li Zheng also said: "The price of grain goes up and down. I have limited grain. If they bid like this, I can only raise the price. The Tibetans are also generous."

The officer stared at Li Zheng's expression and said, "The Duke of the county meant that he admitted to seeking personal gain from it."

"Don't put your hat on it so quickly." Li Zheng continued, "You said that I was seeking personal gain from it. Dare I ask that in the future, foreign people will not be able to collect money when they come to my Tang Dynasty to buy things? Will they all be given to them for free?" ? Free food if you want it? Free people if you want it?”

"You speak too much!"

Li Zheng said with a sneer: "I'm arguing, it's only natural to give money for meals! According to you, all the businessmen in Chang'an, how many of them sold to the Turkic people, then they also seek personal gain from it, right or wrong!"

"How can it be compared with you!"

"A penny is money, and money is always money! Turkic people don't have to pay for meals, and we Central Plains people have to pay for meals according to the rules. Could it be that Turkic people are superior to us Central Plains people?"

The officer quickly turned to Li Shimin and said, "Your Majesty, I have never had such an idea."

Li Zheng also said to Li Shimin: "Your Majesty, I think this old brother thinks this way. This speech officer can support those Turkic barbarians as his own parents, but I can't do it, because it makes me feel like that." nausea."

puff...

I don't know who couldn't help laughing.

Li Zheng looked for the sound, but he didn't know which one in the class was laughing. The voice came from Cheng Yaojin's direction, and Cheng Yaojin's posture was still like a wood carving.

The officer said in a panic, "Your Majesty! I have never had such an idea. Everything I say is for the sake of the Tang Dynasty."
