Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1233
The weather in summer is a bit hot.

The smell in the prison is a bit unpleasant, making people feel a little out of breath.

Any prison in any place seems to be the same in summer.

Few people think about the human rights of prisoners, and naturally they don't think about whether they live comfortably.

Prisoner, it's good to be alive.

Dead just fine.

In the ancient prisons, many prisoners were not beheaded at the entrance of the vegetable market and died. A large part of them actually died of illness in the prison.

For such prisoners, many jailers are also happy to see this situation.

Although Wei Zheng used to be a doctor of imperial history, after he was imprisoned, his treatment was not special.

His cell was a little messy, and the smell was pervasive, making people feel like vomiting.

Wei Zheng has endured here for several days.

He couldn't take it.

But in the face of the current situation, he has nothing to do.

He was a little regretful, regretting why he had done such a thing.

In the past few years, he has gained greater confidence in Li Shimin, and he feels that Li Shimin will definitely be able to create a prosperous age of Zhenguan.

His loyalty to Li Shimin is beyond doubt.

The reason why Li Jiancheng's memorial tablet was erected was because he felt ashamed of Li Jiancheng, and felt that Li Jiancheng died like this and was wronged by Li Shimin, which was too innocent.

Now Li Jiancheng has no tablet, so he wanted to set up one for Li Jiancheng.

First, to repay Li Jiancheng's kindness to him, and second, to make myself feel at ease.

He did something he was guilty of.

It's just that this incident was discovered by others, so that he is now in prison.

And he still knows Li Shimin very well, Li Shimin is a benevolent person, but this kindness is for the people, and for the enemy, he will be crueler than anyone else.

If he decided that he was treason, he would definitely not spare himself.

Uneasy, uneasy.

Uneasy emotions spread, coupled with the sultry weather in the prison, Wei Zheng felt a little out of breath.

He wanted to shout loudly, but in such a cell, he didn't even have the slightest courage to shout.

Sweltering, hopeless...

But at this moment, footsteps suddenly came from outside, and Wei Zheng's heart suddenly sank again. Maybe, his days are over, and Li Shimin is finally going to do something to him.

Soon, he saw someone coming.

It was a eunuch, the eunuch next to Li Shimin.

"Master Wei, the Holy Majesty declares you to enter the palace, follow me."

The eunuch's attitude was average, neither good nor bad. After he said this, he waved his hand and ordered people to open the cell, and then walked straight ahead.

Wei Zheng's heart was pounding, but after he walked out of the cell, his face became resolute again.

This is the attitude he should have.

People can be cowardly in the dark, and they can have their own weak side, but once they come out, they must have the determination to bravely face any difficulties in the world, or not be afraid of death.

The imperial palace was still the same imperial palace, Wei Zheng followed the palace servants into the imperial study.

Li Shimin was not reviewing the memorial, he was waiting for Wei Zheng.

"Criminal Minister Wei Zheng, pay homage to the Holy Majesty."

Wei Zheng prostrated himself on the ground and bowed to Li Shimin. Li Shimin looked at Wei Zheng and remained silent for a long time, but Wei Zheng didn't speak either.

The two of them looked like this, one sat on the dragon chair and looked at the other, while the other knelt down on the ground without looking up.

The atmosphere in the imperial study room was a bit dignified and a bit weird.

After a long, long time, Wei Zheng spoke again: "Wei Zheng, the guilty minister, pay homage to the Holy Majesty."

And just after Wei Zheng said this, Li Shimin immediately cursed: "Wei Zheng, I have treated you badly, why did you treat me like this, do you know that you made me very sad..."

Li Shimin cursed and questioned under his breath.

When Li Shimin scolded, Wei Zheng didn't open his mouth, until Li Shimin had almost scolded, Wei Zheng finally spoke: "My lord, I'm guilty."

Li Shimin glared at Wei Zheng, and said, "You know the crime, what crime do you know?"

Wei Zhengdao: "Your Majesty, I am a sinner. During the Xuanwumen incident, I should have died. It was Your Majesty who gave me a chance to live on. This life of your Majesty has already belonged to His Majesty, for His Majesty's sake." , I have long been vain about life and death, and I only hope that the Holy One can become a generation of Mingjun, and our Tang Dynasty can create a prosperous situation, and the minister is wholehearted, only for the Holy One, only for the Great Tang."

"Hmph, it's only for me and Tang Dynasty, but what have you done? Are you doing it for me and Tang Dynasty?"

After hearing Wei Zheng's words, Li Shimin was even more furious. He originally wanted to spare Wei Zheng's life, but now he became murderous again.

Because what Wei Zheng did was to treat Li Shimin as a fool.

But he, Li Shimin, is not a fool.

Wei Zheng looked calm, and said: "It is indeed my fault that I set up a memorial tablet for Li Jiancheng. However, I have no other intentions in doing so. I just hope that the Holy Majesty can feel at ease."

When these words came out, Li Shimin's face suddenly became ferocious.

He naturally understood what Wei Zheng's words meant.

Li Shimin did something like killing his brother and forcing his father, he must be uneasy, he must not be able to sleep at night, right?

In this way, setting up a memorial tablet for Li Jian can make people feel more at ease.

Wei Zheng felt uneasy about betraying Li Jiancheng. He knew that Li Shimin must be more uneasy than him.

The atmosphere in the imperial study suddenly became solemn again, as if in an instant, the place was filled with murderous aura.

Li Shimin's eyes were fixed, he just looked at Wei Zheng like this, but Wei Zheng puffed up his chest even more.

Time passed like this.

After a long time, Li Shimin finally said: "I will honor Li Jiancheng, and I will also let his tablet enter the ancestral hall."

Although he was very angry with Wei Zheng's situation, he still made this choice.

First, Empress Changsun asked him to show kindness and tolerance, and to do something for Li Jiancheng so that the people would love him more was what he had already planned to do.

Furthermore, he already understood what Wei Zheng meant. Although he set up a memorial tablet for Li Jian and made some high-sounding excuses, he is now loyal to himself.

As long as you are loyal, you can use it if you are loyal.

Governing the country is like this sometimes. No matter how annoying a person is, as long as he has the ability to make Datang more prosperous, then what does Li Shimin's likes and dislikes mean?
Wei Zheng froze for a moment, he didn't seem to expect such a result, he even thought about dying calmly.

But since Li Shimin has made such a decision, it is obvious that he will not kill him.
