Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1851 Impeaching the Prince
The first batch of refugees went to the porridge tent. Although they had to walk a little longer, they finally had food and a place to live. Relatively speaking, they were a bit peaceful.

After all, being able to live is a very happy thing for them.

However, the refugees were resettled, and the news that Li Chengqian ordered to shoot a hungry person was spread in Chang'an City.

After the news spread, the common people admired Li Chengqian very much.

"Okay, His Royal Highness has helped us a lot. If those hungry people are allowed to enter Chang'an City, they will have to rob shops and food. Those people will starve to death. Horrible, the scene will definitely be It's going to be scary."

"Who says it's not? Fortunately, His Royal Highness didn't let them in, so those of us were able to survive."

"Extremely, extremely true."

The common people appreciate Li Chengqian's behavior, but the officials have other ideas about this behavior.

This morning, soon, a speech officer stood up and impeached Li Chengqian.

"Your Majesty, His Highness the Crown Prince helped the disaster, but he killed a hungry person yesterday. Now those hungry people are complaining to His Highness the Crown Prince. We are here to provide disaster relief, not to kill them. This is contrary to our original intention. I think that His Highness the Crown Prince will If things are not done well, you should send other people to do it.”

After the spokesperson stood up and said such a sentence, other officials immediately followed suit.

"Your Majesty, it is indeed inappropriate for His Highness the Crown Prince to do this. I ask Your Majesty to send other people to do this."

"Yes, please replace His Highness the Crown Prince and send someone else to do this."

"If those hungry people hold grudges against the imperial court because of this, things will not be worth the candle."

"Please make a clear judgment, Your Majesty."

"Please make a clear judgment, Your Majesty."

"........."

Everyone kept talking, Li Chengqian stood on the main hall, his eyes narrowed, obviously, these people didn't want him to continue to be responsible for this matter, otherwise, after he finished the disaster relief, it would be a credit, and his behavior , but got the approval of many people in Chang'an City.

However, if his father really changed him, it would be tantamount to telling the world that he, Li Chengqian, could not do this. In this way, it would be easy for the people to lose confidence and admiration for him.

For the sake of his crown prince, he must not be robbed of this matter.

Therefore, Li Chengqian quickly stood up: "Father, the situation was very urgent at that time, and those hungry people were crazy. After they came in, they could only rob those shops. If this is the case, the city of Chang'an will be in chaos. The loss is also very serious, you all probably have shops in Chang'an City, if those refugees rob your shops, are you willing to suffer the loss?"

After Li Chengqian said this, those people in the court immediately fell silent. If refugees came in and really robbed their shops, what would they do?
Of course, refugees may not necessarily rob their shops, after all, their luck can't be that bad, but what if they rob them?
They knew a little bit about Li Chengqian, and knew that Li Chengqian had become a little cunning now. If Li Chengqian specially guided those refugees to rob their shops, it would be a bit unreasonable for them to impeach Li Chengqian now.

However, this silence did not last long.

Soon, someone stood up and said, "Your Majesty, those refugees really shouldn't have just entered Chang'an City like this, but His Highness the Crown Prince can't frighten them by killing them. There are many ways, why kill? This is gone, my lord, a human life."

The official said it heartbroken, as if a human life was of great importance, and soon after he finished speaking, other people in the court kept yelling.

"Your Majesty, a human life, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince actually took a human life like this, he has no compassion at all."

"That's right, that's right, it's really inappropriate for His Royal Highness to do this, it's not appropriate."

"Your Majesty still cherishes the lives of those common people, but the Crown Prince does. Your Majesty, please replace the Crown Prince and assign someone else to take charge of this matter."

"Your Majesty, I also ask you to replace His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"........."

These people pointed the finger at Li Chengqian's improper use of methods, which were too violent.

But Li Chengqian's complexion became a little ugly when the ministers continued to yell like this. In that situation, what else could he do if he didn't kill people to deter him?
Is it useful to reason with a group of hungry people?

But he killed someone after all, so it's hard for him to say anything to justify himself now.

But at this time, Tang Jian stood up and said, "Your Majesty, it is indeed a bit wrong for the prince to kill people, but at that time, if the methods were not tougher, those hungry people might not leave. As the prince of the Tang Dynasty, It is kindness for His Royal Highness to help those hungry people, but sometimes, some tough measures are needed, I think that what His Royal Highness did is not at fault, this is the attitude that a prince should have."

Tang Jian opened his mouth, and soon other people stood up and echoed.

"That's right, as the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, the prince's words should have some effect, but those refugees don't take it seriously, how can they do it if they don't frighten them, should the prince beg them? In that case, my darling Where is Tang's face?"

"Extremely, extremely yes, as the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, there seems to be nothing wrong with doing this. His Royal Highness should do such a thing at this height."

"........."

People at a certain height and doing certain things will not make people feel unreasonable.

For example, if someone is very rich, if he buys a luxury item, it will not make people feel that there is anything, because it is within the range he can afford.

But if a person has no money and he borrows money to buy a luxury item, it will make people think that this person is doing something wrong and very problematic.

The prince is the prince of the Tang Dynasty, and his words are orders. If someone refuses to listen, it is normal to kill him. This is the privilege that the prince should have.

The officials in the court kept talking, and Li Shimin listened to the different opinions of the officials in the court, and he also weighed it in his heart. What Li Chengqian did was right, and it was not good to kill people more or less. , and absolutely inviolable,

After these two points were superimposed, Li Shimin felt that the prince's killing of a person was a trivial matter, a very small matter.

Therefore, when everyone was talking like this, Li Shimin just waved his hand and said: "Okay, there is no need to mention this matter again, those refugees, the crown prince must settle down well, and it is best not to have such a thing happen again .”
