Datang Nongwang

Chapter 540
There are good reasons.

And it was so embarrassing that even Li Shimin had nothing to say.

No wonder Li Chongyuan wanted to pretend to be pitiful, and also to cry.

What Li Chongyuan wanted was to use today's events to let the Fang family know that the Li family was not that easy to bully, and he, Li Chongyuan, was not that easy to bully either.

Why not collect some interest first?

But just based on the punishment that the emperor Li Shimin said, let alone Li Chongyuan disagreed, it is estimated that even the injured people in the West City would not agree if they thought about it.

If today is really as Li Shimin said, let's just expose it.

Li Chongyuan would definitely cause trouble, and put the crime of the West Market Rebellion directly on the Fang family, so that the Fang family could be instructed by the people, or let those people come to complain.

Li Chongyuan's last sentence, if His Majesty really wants to make such a conclusion, Li Chongyuan has nothing to say.

This is to throw today's matter back to Li Shimin, and let him make a good judgment on how to solve today's matter.

Li Shimin's ability to say the same thing, it can be seen how much Li Shimin relies on Fang Xuanling.

Li Shimin was embarrassed.

At this moment, he really didn't know how to calm down the West Market incident today.

Li Chongyuan threw the matter back to him, although he was not happy in his heart, but after hearing Li Chongyuan talk about Liangshui, he also hesitated.

Undecided, he had no choice but to cast a look at Fang Xuanling.

Fang Xuanling, who had been thinking about how to calm down the West City incident, felt Li Shimin's gaze on him, and knew Li Shimin well, immediately stood up tremblingly from his chair, and saluted Li Shimin He said: "Your Majesty, since my son did what happened to the West Market, and I dare not protect him, then I can make a crime according to the law of my court."

Okay.

Fang Xuanling is going to leave the matter to the law.

And he, who is most familiar with Tang law, didn't know that if he followed Tang law, his son would have to be exiled.

Those old foxes standing aside were immediately surprised when they heard Fang Xuanling's words.

Even Li Chongyuan was surprised.

'The old man is crazy.You don't want your life for money, even your own son dares to play like this.But looking at his appearance, it seems that he is acting, so I will see how you continue to act. Li Chongyuan looked at Fang Xuanling's calm face, and he couldn't help but curse in his heart.

Immediately, Li Chongyuan, who was calculating in his heart, looked at Li Shimin, bowed his head and said: "My lord, according to the law of our dynasty, those who make trouble in the West Market should be sentenced to one year in prison and exiled for a thousand miles."

Huh.

When Li Chongyuan spoke, he was so reckless about the consequences, and even said the words without looking at the situation, which made everyone say that Li Chongyuan was ignorant.

Even Li Chongyuan's uncle was very anxious.

"Chong Yuan, how to punish should be decided by the Holy Majesty, how can you, a junior, cross the line." Seeing that Li Chong Yuan didn't know the seriousness, Li Xiaogong also bluntly said that he would be sentenced to imprisonment according to the laws of Tang Dynasty, and he would be exiled for a thousand miles.

in their eyes.

Today's matter is so small that it can be ignored.

After all, Fang Xuanling, the order of Zhongshu, was mixed in. No matter how big or small, everything should be decided by Li Shimin.

And Li Chongyuan's words are obviously like a shit-stirring stick. If it goes on like this, it will easily cause a rift between the monarch and his ministers.

Li Xiaogong's words can't do anything to Li Chongyuan, and they can't stop Li Chongyuan.

Li Chongyuan concluded at this time that Fang Xuanling was acting a bitter drama, so that Li Shimin could speak up and settle this so-called trivial matter, "Uncle, what you said is wrong. I am the one who suffers, and I have the right to Appeal. Besides, governing the country according to the law and controlling the people according to the law is the foundation of our Tang Dynasty. The Holy Majesty once said that the prince's crime is the same as that of the common people. Is it possible that the punishment according to the law is still a crime?"

This is just great.

Everyone was roasted on the fire by Li Chongyuan's words.

Even Li Shimin, who had some minor opinions, was put on the fire.

As Li Chongyuan said.

Li Shimin once indeed said that the prince's crime is the same as that of the common people, and no matter how big or small the crime is, as long as he violates the laws of the Tang Dynasty, he must be punished according to the law.

Seeing Li Chongyuan say this, Fang Xuanling rolled his eyes, feeling that things must not be violated, and the hateful light projected from his eyes seemed to shoot Li Chongyuan on the spot.

Seeing Fang Xuanling looking at him, Li Chongyuan showed a slight smile, and said: "Fang Gong is for the country and the people, and I, Tang people, remember. Fang Gong is the initiator of my Tang laws. I want to come to Fang Gong You should know, what crime should the first culprit be convicted of in the West Market incident? Dare I ask Mr. Fang, is what I said just now correct?"

correct.

So true.

Fang Xuanling's heart was bleeding.

Of course, he knows best the laws that he took the lead in enacting.

He even knew that what Li Chongyuan said was only part of it.

If it is really decided according to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, the title of lord attached to his son, as well as the loose officials, etc. will be demoted, and may even be removed.

although.

Although the West Market incident is not serious, it has already committed a felony in Tang law.

Li Chongyuan's rhetorical question immediately put Fang Xuanling on top of the fire again, which made him sit up and down again.

"My minister is guilty, and my minister is incompetent in teaching me, so I ask the Holy Majesty to judge." Fang Xuanling lost her temper, and finally had to bow down and plead guilty to Li Shimin.

But at this time Li Shimin was staring at Li Chongyuan with puzzlement in his eyes.

Such a small matter, and there has been no death, why did Li Chongyuan chase after Fang Yiyi.

but.

When he thought of the gap between the Li family and the Fang family, he felt sad, "It seems that if this matter is not dealt with reasonably, the cousin will be unhappy if Li Chongyuan refuses to accept it." '

Of course, Li Shimin knew about the grievances between Li Fang and his family.

It's just that he didn't think of it for a while, but when he thought of it, he already understood why Li Chongyuan was holding onto him.

I have a headache.

Li Shimin really had a headache.

On the one hand is the important minister whom I rely on very much, and on the other is the Ben Zong family.

If it was really handled according to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin could have imagined that Fang Xuanling would definitely have resentment, and would even make trouble for the Li family from time to time.

On the other hand, Changsun Wuji and others kept their heads down and remained silent, like outsiders.

They are indeed outsiders.

There is a saying that it is none of your business, just keep it high.

After a long time, Li Shimin realized that Su Dingfang said: "Bring Fang Yiyi and others here."

After waiting for a long time, Li Chongyuan finally waited for such a sentence, and his heart was also helplessly tight.

But that's fine too.

Li Chongyuan really wanted to see how the Fang family father and son would deal with each other after meeting for a while, and see what kind of drama they would play in a while.

"Yes." After Su Dingfang got the words, he ran out.

Not long after, Fang Yiyi and others were brought over.

When Fang Yiyi was brought over, he saw many people in the hall, including his own father, and saw Li Shimin's eyes glaring with anger. He was so frightened that he knelt on the ground, "My lord, please forgive me. I didn't know there would be riots. Your Majesty, please forgive me."

Fang Yiyi knelt down, Fang Xuanling went straight to his son uncharacteristically, and slapped him with his palm.

With a 'snap', the sound of heavy slaps resounded throughout the hall.

Pretty.

It was beautifully played.

Li Chongyuan almost clapped his hands and rewarded him.

Slap down.

The corner of Fang Yiyi's mouth was bleeding, and a heavy palm print on his face appeared in an instant.

Seeing this, Li Shimin coughed softly, "Fang Yiyi, since you have accepted the West Market matter, everything will be easy. But I think you are young, so I won't punish you according to the law of the court. , but the death penalty can be avoided and the living penalty cannot be escaped."

wipe.

Li Chongyuan felt very sad when he heard Li Shimin's words.

From Li Shimin's words, it can already be seen that Li Shimin does not intend to deal with Fang Yiyi.

After listening to Li Shimin's words, Li Chongyuan heaved a long sigh, knowing that it was impossible for him to take advantage of the West Market incident to attack Fang's family today.

As for this so-called living crime.

As usual, pay some money for soup and medicine, then admit your mistake, get a fine and ground yourself, and you're done.

"Your Fang family will be responsible for the soup and medicine money for common people's injuries. In addition, your fault will be announced to Xishi. In addition, if you are seriously injured and cannot be cured, you will be paid [-] pennies. You will be fined for one year and forty sticks." Li Shimin Looking at the Fang family father and son, they said again.

Wipe again.

Li Chongyuan really lost his temper.

This kind of punishment can be said to be light to a certain extent.

This is really a good time for someone in the court to take advantage of the coolness. With this kind of punishment alone, the matter of Xishi is settled.

but.

Just when Li Chongyuan really lost his temper, Li Shimin looked at Li Chongyuan and said: "Fang Yiyi, and you and others, what they did in West Market caused a lot of losses to others, so the goods they lost, You pay the market price."

come alive.

When Li Chongyuan heard that Li Shimin wanted Fang Yiyi and others to pay for the value of the goods, he knew that if he didn't touch Fang's family, he knew that the opportunity was lost and came again.

In the West Market, the items sold by other personnel are not of high value.

This amount of money, Fang Yiyi and others can still afford to pay.

But Li Chongyuan's goldfish, that's hard to say.

At this time, Li Shimin looked at Li Chongyuan, and when he wanted to ask, he turned to Cheng Chumo, "Cheng Chumo, do you have statistics on how many goldfish Li Chongyuan sells in West Market?"

Cheng Chumo, who had been standing still and watching the play, immediately cast a look at Li Chongyuan when he saw Li Shimin asking him, and then responded to Li Shimin: "I didn't count it in detail, but I counted it according to the wooden basin. Don't talk about it." There are also hundreds of wooden basins, and the number of dead goldfish on the ground may not be less than ten thousand."

Fang Xuanling, who was standing beside Fang Yiyi, heard that there were only ten thousand fish, and made a silent calculation in his mind, thinking that it was not much money.

He was about to ask his son to thank him quickly, but at this moment, Li Chongyuan said, "My lord, the goldfish sold in the West Market totals 120 pots, and there are two hundred goldfish in each pot."

Twenty-four thousand goldfish.

When everyone heard it, they didn't feel anything.

But Cheng Chumo secretly raised the corner of his eyes at Li Chongyuan.

Li Chongyuan received it and smiled back.

Both of them knew that Li Chongyuan didn't have that many goldfish, maybe less than half of them.

On the other hand, Su Dingfang frowned, and wanted to speak, but when he thought of the gift Li Chongyuan once brought to his door, he swallowed his saliva, and thought to himself, "Forget it, I'll stop talking."However, after today's matter is over, if Li Chongyuan doesn't give me a bottle of good wine, I will come to the door. '

Li Chongyuan said an accurate figure.

Everyone didn't doubt that there was a problem, even Li Shimin didn't think there was a problem.

Goldfish are small. As for whether two hundred goldfish can be placed in a wooden basin, Li Shimin intuitively thinks that it is possible.

"Well, if this is the case, Fang Yiyi will pay Li Chongyuan according to the number of [-] goldfish." Li Shimin said.

Li Chongyuan has been waiting for this sentence.

As soon as Li Shimin finished speaking, Fang's father and son immediately kowtowed and thanked each other.

But when Fang's father and son were happy, Li Chongyuan smiled indifferently, and said to Li Shimin: "My lord, half of the [-] goldfishes that I lost were quite valuable goldfish. I don't know the price." Yes, but if I want to come to the Holy Majesty, I have heard that Shemei once sold goldfish in the East Market. Dozens of goldfish, Shemei sold a total of [-] yuan. And the goldfish sold in the West Market this time. It doesn’t matter whether it’s the variety or not, it’s even better than what She Mei sold last time.”

wow.

When everyone heard this, they were dumbfounded.

Fang's father and son were also stupid.

Dozens of goldfish can be sold for [-] yuan.

Now the west market has been destroyed with [-] tails, and the quality is even better than last time.

How much does it cost?

Everyone was dumbfounded, Li Shimin's head grew bigger once he recalled the last time he heard about Wan'er selling goldfish in Dongshi.

If calculated according to the last price, the average price of each piece is more than three to five hundred guan.

Twenty-four thousand tails.

If each item is calculated at three to five hundred guan, the Fang family will have to pay Li Chongyuan, which is an astronomical figure.

Is the Fang family rich?
Of course there are.

There are lands, properties, and shops, and there are quite a few of them.

But even if they were all added up, it probably wouldn't be enough to compensate Li Chongyuan.

Li Shimin had a headache again.

It was the first time he heard of such a huge compensation, and it was the first time he saw it.

But if this matter is not resolved today, it is estimated that it will never end.

"Wang Li, ask someone to go to the West Market to find out how many goldfish there are." Li Shimin finally had to come up with a way to count the goldfish that Li Chongyuan lost in the West Market.

After Wang Li got the words, he confessed to a servant.

After the servant left, he came back within two quarters of an hour.

As soon as the servant came back, he came to Wang Li, said something in a low voice, and then automatically stepped aside.

Wang Li looked at Li Chongyuan, approached Li Shimin and said, "Your Majesty, the west market has also been cleaned up, and all the goldfish lost by Li Xianbo have been washed away with the underground sewer."

After Li Shimin heard the news, he looked helplessly at Li Chongyuan, and then at Fang's father and son.

The head is bigger.

No accurate data anymore.

You can't dig into the underground sewer to find the dead goldfish for such a little thing.
