Emperor Zhenguan

Chapter 440 Phase Selection
The breeze caressed, and the footer of the document flipped.

"Li Xiaochang, Du Caiqian, the evidence of treason is solid, and they also colluded with the deposed prince. In the past few days, according to the letters I collected from Li Xiaochang, I found that many ministers in the court have contacts with Li Xiaochang.

Therefore, these two people have already decided to execute, and their family members will also be taken into the court. "

Having said that, Li Zhiyun paused slightly.Because Li Junxian once wrote a letter to intercede for Du Caiqian's wife, Lu Shi.

Out of curiosity, Li Zhiyun investigated this Lu family and found that she was born in the southern ancestral house of the Lu family in Fanyang.After thinking about it again and again, Li Zhiyun didn't hand her over to Jiaofang Secretary, but instead sent her to the court.

Hearing this, Princess Chu said: "If the husband is in trouble, I will reject the second sister-in-law."

Li Zhiyun shook his head and said: "No need, this time the elder Sun Shunde has been canceled all the titles of lords because of his frequent correspondence with Li Xiao. He is also the elder grandson. I decided to give the eldest grandson Anye a chance, which can be regarded as an expression to the people of Guanlong." state."

Suppression, to grasp a degree.

This time he killed so many people directly, many of them were related to Guan Long, so he decided to forgive one or two as appropriate.

This eldest grandson, Anye, might as well take it out as a show.

"So, my concubine thank you husband."

"You and I don't need to be like this." Li Zhiyun said: "Even if there is no such thing, if the second sister-in-law asks for mercy, I will consider it. Now there are several brothers and family members, only the second sister-in-law is left. Anyway, what should be taken care of is still the second sister-in-law." take care of."

Princess Chu smiled, "My husband is kind."

It doesn't count if he is benevolent, he just followed the trend.

"By the way, have you thought about how to deal with the aunt's matter?" Li Zhiyun couldn't help asking.

Speaking of this, Princess Chu's face froze, and she asked angrily, "Husband wants to intervene?"

"Don't dare, don't dare."

Li Zhiyun laughed with him and put his arms around his wife.

Seeing this, Princess Chu snorted softly.

Three days later, Li Xiaochang and Du Caiqian were executed in Xishi.The eldest grandson, Anye, was exiled in Yizhou.

Outside Chang'an City.

"Pinggao, I'm going to Danzhou now. I don't know when we will see you again. Let's have a glass of wine and respect our brotherhood."

Wang Changxie raised his wine glass.

Li Gaoqian and Zhang Ping raised their glasses to each other, and then the three of them drank it down in one gulp.

Zhang Pinggao smiled and said: "Although you stay in the capital, you should be more careful. Now that the King of Chu is in control of the government, he must not tolerate us veterans. The saint is in poor health and no one will take care of you. I hope you will be careful in everything."

The three of them, together with Qian Jiulong, Jiang Baoyi, Liu Shilong, Liu Zhenghui and others, are all Jinyang Yuancong. Now that King Chu is rising, they have to give way.

Otherwise, relegation is a minor matter, but loss of life is a major issue.

Li Gaoqian said frankly: "In a few days, I will hand in my resignation and leave the court. I have never offended the king of Chu, and he will not kill me if I think about it."

"This is also a way." Zhang Pinggao nodded.

Wang Changxie sighed: "It seems that I have to find an opportunity to submit my resignation to the King of Chu."

These people are all saints and have no contact with the King of Chu. Now that the King of Chu is in charge of the government, they will be taken away by the King of Chu sooner or later.

If they don't leave now, they will still leave when the King of Chu ascends the throne in the future.

There is no way, whoever told the sage to say no to it?

Zhang Pinggao cupped his fists and said: "If there is a chance in the future, we will swim together in the beautiful mountains and rivers."

"it is good!"

Qin Wangfu.

Changsun Shunde didn't expect that he refused Princess Qin's request for help a few days ago, but now it's his turn to ask her for help.

It would be impossible for the eldest grandson Anye to be exiled in Yizhou without the consent of the King of Chu.Du Caiqian and Li Xiaochang, who were also rebellious, died so hard that they couldn't die anymore, so why did the eldest grandson Anye escape the catastrophe.

Anyone with a discerning eye can understand that this probably has something to do with Princess Qin.

After all, the ruling and opposition parties also knew a thing or two about King Chu taking care of Prince Qin's mansion.

"Excuse me, grandson, my concubine is not feeling well and cannot see guests, grandson, please come back in two days."

In front of the gate of the palace, the servant girl softly persuaded the elder Sun Shunde.

Changsun Shunde said impatiently: "Just say that I have something urgent, and you can pass it on."

The king of Chu pushed him to the end, the official position was gone, the lord was gone, and he has now become a commoner, how can he accept this.

Anyway, leave one for him to retire!

On the side of the King of Chu, he has no way to go, so he can't ask for anything, so he can only try his luck with the niece of this clan.

It's a pity that he didn't help out because of the eldest grandson Anye's affairs a few days ago, and now it's difficult to find the eldest grandson.

The maid couldn't resist him, so she could only turn around and go in to report.

inner room.

After hearing what the maid said, Changsun lowered her head and embroidered a pair of small shoes, and said softly, "I'm just a lonely widow, how can He De help him, tell him, I can't do anything."

For the sake of the eldest grandson Anye, she had put down her body to beg the princess of Chu, if she wanted to beg the concubine of Chu for the sake of the eldest grandson Shunde.

What has she become?

What would Princess Chu think of her?

How would the King of Chu treat her?
She is not stupid, so naturally she would not agree to help Changsun Shunde.

In her opinion, it was a surprise that the king of Chu could spare his eldest grandson Anye for his own sake, how could he be greedy.

After all, no matter how good the relationship between my husband and King Chu is, that's not how it works.My brother still knows how to settle accounts, and I ask for it again and again, isn't this the same as offending others?

What's more, this is still a major political event involving rebellion.

I don't know what it means to intervene once, how can I still make progress.

To be a human being, one must know how to be content.

"The slaves obey."

In the end, Changsun Shunde still didn't get help from the Changsun family, so he could only leave in despair.

He had thought about going to the palace to find the emperor, but the problem was that inside and outside the palace, they were all from the king of Chu.

Outside is the general under the command of King Chu, and inside is serving the emperor is Empress Wan, how could he see the emperor.

Shence Mansion.

Li Zhiyun sat cross-legged on a soft cushion, and there was a memorial on the case table.Below, several counselors knelt down one after another.

"What do you think of the candidate for Xiangguo?"

"Naturally, whoever His Highness trusts most will be able to go up." Wei Zheng said.

Li Zhiyun thought, he naturally wanted Du Ruhui and others to be prime ministers, but they lack qualifications, so it is not appropriate to promote rashly now.He also had to take into account the thoughts of Pei Ju, Yang Gongren and others.

When the old ministers of the East Palace and Li Yuan were eliminated, the three of them spared no effort to support themselves to replace them with civil and military officials from the Shence Mansion. It would be too much to promote Du Ruhui and others to become prime ministers now.

"How about Changping Wang Li Shuliang?"

Li Shuliang?
Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, are you serious, Your Highness, that King Changping is terrible enough to be a governor, let him be a prime minister?

Wei Zheng refused without hesitation: "Your Highness, it's not that I have any objections to King Changping, but King Changping, um, he's not suitable to be a prime minister."

He actually wanted to say that King Changping was not worthy of being a prime minister at all.

The position of Xiangguo is in the center, serving the king and governing the world. If it is because of lack of intelligence, it will be a disaster.

And what about King Changping?
Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, this person has never done anything impressive.

Even, lost many times.

Is it really appropriate for such a person to be a prime minister?

Du Ruhui thought a little deeper, and he tentatively asked: "Is Your Highness planning to appease the clan with King Changping?"

Li Zhiyun glanced at him approvingly, nodded and said: "That's right. Actually, I know what you are worried about, but now is not the time. This king needs a gentle and excessive government. King Changping is a good choice."

Having said that, everyone was stunned.

It seems that His Highness does not intend to really reuse King Changping, but to use him for a show.

Du Ruhui said: "Actually, it's harmless. There are Yang Xiang, Pei Xiang, Chen et al. in the Political Affairs Hall. Changping Wang's entry into the Political Affairs Hall will not cause much disturbance."

"Then there is another one?" Wei Zheng asked.

Li Zhiyun smiled and said: "Take your time, and consider the remaining one slowly."

The aspect has been dragged on for so long, and it is necessary to give an explanation, even if it is only half of the explanation, this can temporarily block the mouths of the officials.
