Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 2024 The Real Situation
The heavy snow was still falling, and the atmosphere above the palace hall was a bit dignified.

It was supposed to be joyous and peaceful, but now it has become a little depressing.

Qin Tian stood on the main hall with a calm expression, Li Shimin didn't intend to let him sit down, no matter what, he beat his son and wanted him to give Qin Tian a seat, how could it be so easy in the world?

As for Li Zhi, he was still lying down at this time, feeling very wronged and moaning non-stop.

Jin Yiwei was very fast, about half an hour later, Yuan Lou hurried over.

"Your Majesty, the investigation has been done."

Li Shimin nodded: "What's the situation?"

"Then Zhao Qing was persuaded by His Highness King Jin to kidnap Qin Xiaodie and Princess Gu Meng, and wanted to take their bodies, but His Highness King Jin's purpose was to force Qin Tian to kill people, so he would not be able to go Xiliang is crowned king."

Yuan Lou just said it briefly, but as long as what Qin Tian said is true, everyone can figure out what happened.

Everything is aimed at Qin Tian.

After Yuan Lou finished speaking, there was an uproar in the hall.

"What, this matter was really done by His Royal Highness King Jin?"

"Hmph, as a prince, His Royal Highness King Jin actually did such a thing, it's really embarrassing."

"He has completely disgraced our royal family."

"His Royal Highness King Jin, really... really can do anything."

This kind of thing happened to Jin Wang Li Zhi, it will not be easy if he wants to fight for the crown prince in the future, right?
So taking advantage of this opportunity, they definitely want to take advantage of King Jin Li Zhi. As long as he doesn't have a chance, everything will be fine.

Especially Li Tai and Li Ke, they will not let go of this opportunity.

At this time, Li Zhi's face was ugly, and he couldn't believe it.

This Yuan Lou is really brave, dare to offend him Jin Wang Li Zhi, isn't he afraid of death?

What he didn't know was that Yuan Lou was naturally afraid of death, but after being instructed by Qin Tian, ​​he knew what to do as the commander of Jinyiwei. As long as he was loyal to Li Shimin, then he could continue in this position. , so, even if offending anyone else, there is no problem.

The more loyal he is, the more power he has, and the more power he has, who can resist him?
Even Jin Wang Li Zhi is useless.

Li Shimin didn't care much about Yuan Lou's loyalty or not at this moment, he was just a little tangled up by the answer.

When this happened, Li Shimin had already started to think, if what Qin Tian said was true, how should he solve this matter, and if what Li Zhi said was true, how should he solve this matter?

What Qin Tian said is true, can he execute his own son?

Li Zhi, he still likes him very much.

But if he is not executed, how will Qin Tian explain it?
A gust of cold wind blew in from the outside, and everyone shivered suddenly. Li Shimin felt much calmer when he was hit by a gust of cold wind.

When everyone was discussing like this, Li Shimin snorted: "Prince Jin, what else do you have to say now?"

Li Shimin's tone was very cold, obviously not kind. After everyone noticed it, they were stunned. Could it be that Li Shimin was going to do something to King Jin, but he was his own son?

For a Qin Tian, ​​is it worth it?
And if Li Shimin really did this, how great is Qin Tian's holy favor, will they dare to offend Qin Tian in the future?

Li Zhi burst into tears again: "Father is clear, wronged, this is wronged to my son, it must be Yuan Lou who deceived the holy father, he deceived the father."

Li Zhi pointed his head at Yuan Lou, but Yuan Lou looked calm at this time and did not give any explanation, because what he said was the truth, and Li Shimin sent anyone to investigate, and what he got was still the truth.

So, he doesn't need to worry.

At this time, Li Shimin suddenly realized Yuan Lou's loyalty. What he said just now completely offended Jin Wang Li Zhi. If Li Zhi gains power in the future, shouldn't he be killed?

But even so, Yuan Lou still said that this kind of loyalty does not come with everything.

Li Shimin thinks Jin Yiwei is really nice.

But soon, Li Shimin put the focus on Jin Wang Li Zhi again.

"Jin Yiwei will not deceive me. It is you who have done such a thing, but you are still lying to your father. It is really unreasonable. Come and escort Jin Wang Li Zhi back to his palace. Without my order, no Let him go out of the house, and, without my order, no one is allowed to visit, and those who disobey the order will be executed."

After saying this, Li Zhi couldn't help shouting again: "Father, you are wronged, you are wronged..."

Li Zhi was very wronged. When he dealt with Qin Tian, ​​he wanted Qin Tian to get all his wealth out. He was the one who came up with the idea. Without him, would his father have so much money at once?
But he made such a great contribution, but he didn't get any reward at all.

But now, his father actually wants to punish him, it is really unreasonable, too unreasonable.

However, it was useless for Li Zhi to be wronged, and soon someone carried him away.

At this time, Li Shimin continued: "Although that Zhao Qing was instigated by others, what he did is really unbearable. Put him in prison. His father, Zhao Bu, was demoted to a commoner. The children of Zhao's family will be punished within 20 years. , are not allowed to take the imperial examination.”

20 years is not a long time, but it is not short enough, enough to make a decent family lose their wealth all at once.

For 20 years, no one has been an official in the court, can they still rise?

In such an era, only being an official can make a family prosperous, no matter what other things you are engaged in, you can't.

Li Shimin's punishment is already very harsh.

And after he continued to give orders like this, Qin Tian stood up and said: "The emperor is holy, and I thank you on behalf of my sister and princess."

Li Shimin glanced at Qin Tian, ​​always felt that Qin Tian deserved a beating, thank you, why did he replace Qin Xiaodie and Gu Meng, it seems that he made such a punishment not because of Qin Tian, It was because of Gu Meng and Qin Xiaodie, because things were always like this, and Li Shimin said that he seemed to have no kindness at all.

"In this matter, King Jin and Zhao Qing were at fault. Qin Aiqing's cruelty to Zhao Qing was justifiable. After all, he was still in Zhao Qing's hands at the time, but you can use another method to attack King Jin. Yes, it's a bit inappropriate."

"Please punish me, Your Majesty."

At this time, Qin Tian would not be stubborn, but Li Shimin smiled wryly, and said: "Forget it, after the New Year, you should leave Chang'an City as soon as possible and go to the fiefdom. You are still needed for everything in the fiefdom. "

"Emperor Shengming."
