Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1232 Tang Rong enters the palace
A few days after the rain stopped, the weather in Chang'an City became a little hotter.

It's an uncomfortable day.

Some big families can only feel some coolness when they come out of the rain house.

And under such weather, Tang Rong, who hadn't entered the palace for a long time, suddenly entered the palace.

After entering the palace, he went directly to the queen's bedroom.

Empress Changsun didn't have many people to play in the harem on weekdays. Seeing Tang Rong coming, she was a little surprised and also a little happy.

The two were chatting in the palace, and Tang Rong brought all the fun things Qin Tian made to Empress Changsun.

But more, there are still some small toys for Li Zhi.

Today's Li Zhi is very young, just the age he likes to play. Qin Tian's toys are very interesting and fun. After Li Zhi got them, he liked them very much.

Although he is young, he has already begun to receive a relatively strict education.

It's so rare to have something to play with, so I'm naturally excited.

The two of them were talking like this, and before they knew it, the topic came to Wei Zheng.

Of course, Tang Rong came here for Wei Zheng's affairs, even if Empress Changsun didn't mention it, he would slowly bring it up.

"Queen, I really don't know what happened to Wei Zheng, why he did such a thing, and now the Holy Majesty puts him in a prison, which is enough for him."

It was just a simple comment. Empress Changsun didn't think much about it after listening to it. She nodded, obviously agreeing with Tang Rong's words. Wei Zheng really felt a little courting death for setting up Li Jiancheng's tablet in his own house.

She also felt that Wei Zheng deserved to die, because he had the tendency of treason.

At this time, Tang Rong pretended not to have any intentions and said, "I heard that Wei Zheng smothered the holy starling to death before. Now that he has today, it is also retribution. Even the holy starling dared to suffocate to death."

After saying this, Tang Rong changed the topic again, but Empress Changsun suddenly frowned slightly, and did not pay attention to what Tang Rong said next.

She suddenly thought of many things.

Now in the harem, the most favored is gentleness.

And Li Shimin's starling was given by Wenrou, Wei Zheng let Li Shimin suffocate that starling, which was tantamount to offending Wenrou, and with Wei Zheng around, Li Shimin would not be too addicted to beauty.

Li Shimin is not obsessed with beauty, and it is impossible for her to seduce Li Shimin gently. In this way, she, the queen, has a better chance to remain the master of the harem.

But if Wei Zheng is dead, who has the guts to supervise Li Shimin?

Suddenly, Empress Changsun felt that Wei Zheng could not die.

At least Wei Zheng can't die if Ruan Rou continues to favor the harem.

This person who is not afraid of death is still useful.

And as long as a person is useful, he has the value of living.

Empress Changsun thought through a lot of things, and after thinking it through, he felt that he might have to do something.

Tang Rong left around noon, and during the whole process, he only chatted with Wei Zheng for a while, which did not arouse anyone's suspicion.

After Tang Rong left the palace, Empress Changsun came directly to the imperial study.

In the imperial study room, there is the sound of water flowing outside the window, but the inside is quite refreshing.

Li Shimin was reviewing the memorial in the Imperial Study Room. Although he had been with Rou Rou for a long time, the current him is not particularly neglected in government affairs.

Seeing Empress Changsun coming, Li Shimin was a little surprised, and then suddenly realized that since Ruan Wen entered the palace, he seemed to have never been to the empress' bedroom.

Involuntarily, a trace of guilt arose in his heart.

Even though he is very pampering and gentle now, he just likes gentle beauty, and when it comes to feelings, the relationship between him and Empress Changsun is the deepest.

"Why is the queen here?"

Empress Changsun smiled and said, "Your Majesty, my concubine is here because I want to ask you something."

"Oh, what's the matter?"

Li Shimin was a little curious, he didn't know what Empress Changsun had to ask himself.

Empress Changsun said: "Your Majesty, my concubine would like to ask, what are you going to do with Wei Zheng?"

Hearing that Empress Changsun came here for Wei Zheng, Li Shimin's expression moved slightly.

As for Wei Zheng, he was indeed very angry that morning at the court, but later he thought about it again, and felt that although this Wei Zheng had done that kind of thing, it was still impossible to say that he had the intention of treason.

In this way, he was not in a hurry to deal with Wei Zheng.

However, as to whether to release Wei Zheng or how to deal with him, he has not yet considered it clearly.

You know, if Wei Zheng is released, it means that everyone else will miss Li Jiancheng and set up a memorial tablet for Li Jiancheng. This will be very detrimental to his rule, and he must set an example.

But how to deal with Wei Zheng is the most appropriate, and it is not easy to decide, so the only way is to put Wei Zheng in the prison first.

"Why did the queen suddenly ask this?"

Li Shimin looked up at Empress Changsun and asked curiously. Empress Changsun looked calm and said, "Your Majesty, you are a wise emperor through the ages, and you want to be broad-minded. My concubine feels that although Wei Zheng is guilty, he is not guilty of death. Your Majesty If you want to punish him, it's better not to hurt his life."

Speaking of this, Empress Changsun said again: "The Holy Majesty has endured Wei Zheng for so long before, if he can't hold back at this time, wouldn't it be a failure, and everyone will think that the Holy Majesty took this opportunity to get rid of Wei Zheng because he hates Wei Zheng." .”

Empress Changsun spoke in a leisurely manner, and Li Shimin didn't make a statement after listening.

At this time, Empress Changsun continued: "Also, Your Majesty, it has been many years since the Xuanwumen Incident, and the abolished prince Li Jiancheng is still a rebel, a pariah, and a commoner, but he is my Tang Dynasty's son." A child of the royal family, with his appearance, it will make people feel that the Holy One has no family affection, no kindness, and a generous heart, so the concubine thinks that the Holy One might as well use this opportunity to posthumously title Li Jiancheng, and let the world see To the bosom of the Holy One..."

Empress Changsun said so, she knew Li Shimin very well, she knew what Li Shimin was most worried about, and she also knew what kind of situation Li Shimin wanted to see the most. As the emperor, it was inevitable that he would have some vanity.

In order to have a good reputation in future history books, he will do many things.

Wei Zheng endured it like this, so it must be another good story in the history books from now on, right?

Li Shimin didn't think about letting Wei Zheng go, but now after hearing what Empress Changsun said, he felt that he could think about it, let Wei Zheng go, and pursue Li Jiancheng and the others.

But before that, he needs to meet Wei Zheng and listen to him talk.

He didn't want to let go of someone who was still unfaithful to him.
