Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 752 Reversal
Some things, what should come will come after all, and they cannot be avoided.

Early the next morning, Cheng Chumo and Yuchi Baolin were called into the palace not long after they woke up.

At this time, the palace is already a little hot.

The cicadas kept singing, and the entire palace could only hear the sound of the cicadas, which made both Cheng Chumo and Yuchi Baolin suddenly feel an indescribable sense of trembling.

Entering the imperial study, they saw Gao Shilian and Li Shimin.

However, when the two of them saw Gao Shilian and Li Shimin, they suddenly couldn't help but want to laugh, because both Gao Shilian and Li Shimin wrapped their heads in white cloth, and the two looked very happy.

However, this is in the imperial study room after all, even if the two want to laugh, they can only hold back, and if they fart, they have to hold back.

"My lord, I don't know why you asked the two of us to enter the palace?"

As soon as Cheng Chumo opened his mouth, Gao Shilian burst into tears: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you have to decide for me. These two little dudes have completely forgotten about propriety, righteousness, and shame. They even dare to beat me. This minister, the order of the minister, is really a shame!" I can't do it anymore, the one who lost the court, my lord..."

Gao Shilian yelled, but the meaning in his words was very vicious. He didn't say what Cheng Chumo did to him when he beat him, but said that it hurt the face of the court. If so, Li Shimin might have to teach them a good lesson. up.

The face of the imperial court is greater than the sky, so they dare not humiliate casually.

After saying this, Li Shimin's face turned even more ugly, and even looked a little hideous because of the white cloth, but in the eyes of Cheng Chumo and Yuchi Baolin, he felt a little funny.

"The two of you are guilty. You are so bold. You even dare to hit Shang Shuling. Even if Gao Shilian is not Shang Shuling, he is still your elder. Did you think about the consequences?"

Li Shimin's voice was gloomy, making people feel goose bumps all over their bodies after hearing it.

Cheng Chumo suddenly plopped and knelt down: "My lord, how could we not know that we were wrong in beating Gao Shilian, but even if there was a mistake, we still have to fight. You don't know, my lord, that Lord Hou is fighting against King Yan. There is not enough food and grass. If we can't transport the food and grass as soon as possible, the matter of taking Youzhou City will be suspended. Master Tang of the Ministry of Households has prepared the food and grass for us, but this Gao Shilian just refuses to sign , If he doesn't sign, we won't be able to transport the grain and grass, there are tens of thousands of soldiers waiting to eat in Youzhou, how dare we take risks?"

Cheng Chumo was a little quick-witted, and when he knelt down and said such a call, he was very organized.

Li Shimin was taken aback when he heard this, Empress Changsun said to wait for a few days, but Cheng Chumo said that Gao Shilian would not approve, which of the two of them was right?
Li Shimin naturally had no doubts about Empress Changsun, but Empress Changsun also said that she was just repeating Gao Shilian's words. Gao Shilian was beaten, and what he said must be beneficial to him.

Cheng Chumo would definitely do the same.

And at this time, Yuchi Baolin also knelt down suddenly, and said: "My lord, if you don't believe this matter, you can ask Mr. Tang Jian, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, he knows this matter best. It's really Gao Shilian who refuses to Granted, we really had no choice but to beat him."

When the two said this, Li Shimin hesitated for a moment. Seeing this, Gao Shilian knew something was wrong, so he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, I didn't say no to approval, but just waited for a few days."

"Hmph, you didn't say to wait for a few days. Moreover, Lord Hou is in urgent need of food and grass. Can you wait for a few days? I don't know what your intentions are, Mr. Gao."

"you you……"

Gao Shilian was so angry that Li Shimin ordered Tang Jian to be called in after thinking for a while.

After Tang Jian came in, he saw the wound on Li Shimin's face, and immediately understood why he refused to go to the court to meet people, but he was as smart as him, so he pretended not to know at this time, and stepped forward and said: "The sage Xuan Weichen came, I don't know What's the matter?"

Li Shimin said: "Cheng Chumo and Yuchi Baolin said that you have prepared all the food and grass for Qin Tian?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, it was ready yesterday. It's just that Mr. Gao has not approved the ministerial decree, so so far, he has not dared to hand it over."

"Oh, no approval, did you say to wait a few days before granting approval?"

"That's not the case."

Tang Jian said it simply, but after he finished speaking, Li Shimin knew exactly what was going on.

Cheng Chumo did not lie to him, it was Gao Shilian who lied to him, he glared at Gao Shilian: "Gao Aiqing, why didn't you approve it?"

"Your Majesty, I really didn't say that I wouldn't approve it. I just have to wait a few days until there is enough food and grass to approve it."

"Hmph, the Ministry of Grain and Grass has already prepared, why didn't you approve it, Mr. Gao, what is your intention in doing this?" Cheng Chumo suddenly jumped up, and then he pointed at Gao Shilian and began to curse.

At this moment, a eunuch suddenly ran in: "Your Majesty, Mr. Han, Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, asked to see him, saying that he had captured a spy from Youzhou."

Li Shimin didn't want to meet too many people, but the Youzhou spy was probably not a small matter, so after he nodded, he ordered someone to bring Han Xiao in.

"Han Aiqing, have you caught a spy from Youzhou?"

"Your Majesty, yes, this spy is named Luo Shisan, Luo Yi's adopted son. After investigation and questioning, he came to Chang'an this time to prevent Cheng Chumo and others from preparing food and grass. However, how did he stop it? Let's join forces, ask whoever will help, no matter how I ask, he won't say anything."

When Han Xiao said this, he raised his head and glanced at Gao Shilian. Gao Shilian's eyebrows were slightly condensed, and his heart suddenly sank: "Look at me, I don't know that Luo Shisan."

Cheng Chu laughed silently: "Why do you need to know each other, as long as Na Luo Shisan gives you money, otherwise, why do you want to stop us from delivering food and grass?"

It is a bit poisonous to say this, it is simply saying that Gao Shilian is collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country.

Gao Shilian's heart was bleeding. He looked at Li Shimin and said, "Your Majesty, this is simply nonsense. They framed my minister..."

The Royal Study Room suddenly became like this. Cheng Chumo and Yuchi Baolin believed that Gao Shilian was in collusion with Luo Shisan. none of your business.

Li Shimin's eyebrows were frowned, and after a long time, he said: "Okay, I trust Gao Aiqing in this matter, now that the food and grass have been prepared, then Cheng Chumo, you two, hurry up and take the food and grass to Youzhou, don't delay matter."

Li Shimin didn't know exactly what was going on, but it was unlikely that Gao Shilian and Luo Yi colluded, all of this might just be a coincidence.

And when the incident was such a mess, Cheng Chumo and Yuchi Baolin's beatings could only be forgotten.
