Zhenguan Crown Prince Li Chengqian

Chapter 17: You Can't Die If You Don't Die

Hou Junji's Youwei army quickly disarmed the soldiers in the Youwuwei camp. Li Chengqian sat on the commander's seat, playing with the arrow in his hand.

Hou Junji shouted loudly: "Rebels, if you still don't kneel down, don't you know that the laws of the country are strict?"

The eldest grandson Anye didn't care about those things, he kicked Liu Deyu and Yuan Hongshan to the ground when he went up, and cursed: "Things that don't know how to die, dare to be arrogant like the prince."

Liu Deyu and the others are tied tightly now, otherwise they would definitely come up and bite the eldest grandson Anye a few times, cursing: "Traitor, I am really blind to trust a villain like you."

The eldest grandson Anye's face turned red, and he was about to hit Liu Deyu, but was stopped by Li Chengqian.

"The matter has come to this, I wonder how the two generals will face my father?" Li Chengqian put down the command arrow, walked in front of the two, and personally untied them.

Liu Deyu: "The winner is the king and the loser, there is nothing to say."

"Li Xiaochang will not succeed, just wait, I believe that you will meet him in Chang'an soon."

"General Hou will send them to the prison of the Ministry of Justice and tell King Rencheng to keep them under strict supervision."

Chengqing Hall

Li Chengqian reported to Li Shimin on the handling of the rebellion case.

Li Shimin put down the memorial in his hand and asked Li Chengqian: "What do you plan to do with Changsun Anye?"

"Eldest grandson Anye has made meritorious deeds in exposing the crime. Please be promoted to doctor Yinqing Guanglu and conferred the title of marquis. Let him go home to retire!"

"Well, you can explain to your mother, and the auxiliary machine Zhen has also told you. I heard that you played a game of chess with Cen Wenwen today." Li Shimin asked with interest.

"Cen Jingren is worthy of being the leader of the gentry, everyone is demeanor, and this close minister of the emperor is really reasonable." Li Chengqian signaled Gan Yun to serve tea.

Gan Yun was also thinking in his heart: Even if you are the prince, you can't do this in front of His Majesty. Have you ever seen anyone who dares to point fingers at our family in front of His Majesty.

Li Shimin saw the silent communication between the two, and said with a smile: "Go and show the prince some tea, if you don't go, I don't care if he comes back and cleans you up."

"It seems that Cen Wenwen, you have made sense, and the rest depends on your performance tomorrow."

"Father, we can't afford to offend scholars. As for those people, I haven't paid attention to them."

Li Shimin was quite satisfied with Li Chengqian's performance in this anti-case: "Li Xiaochang has already turned against Lizhou, you see who to send."

"I don't avoid relatives in internal affairs. Duke Yi Qin Qiong has been with his father for many years and has experienced wars for a long time. He can be the commander in chief. Xie Yingdeng, who has won the three armies bravely and is familiar with the army, can be the deputy commander. I don't know what the father thinks?"

After hearing Li Chengqian's words, Li Shimin laughed: "You are welcome, this is not the style of the ancients recommending virtuous people, but this time it is my reward for you."

"The minister over there thanked the royal father." The father and son smiled at each other.

Tai Chi Palace

Xiao Yu came out of the class and said, "Your Majesty, I heard yesterday that Youwuwei General Liu Deyu and Commander Yuan Hongshan conspired with Li Xiaochang to rebel.

"Yes, I ordered the crown prince and Hou Junji to lead the right guards to put down the rebellion Liu Deyu and Yuan Hongshan."

"Your Majesty, I heard that Sun Anye, the head of the Right Prison Gate General, was also involved, so why didn't he be detained?" Yu Shi Han Fang also came out of the class and said.

"Han Yushi, are you questioning Your Majesty?" Li Chengqian pouted, knowing that these people would not be idle, so the father and son made an appointment that Li Chengqian would deal with them today.

"Returning to Your Highness, Your Majesty always encourages his subjects to speak up. I don't know what is wrong. Since the eldest grandson Anye has participated, he cannot escape responsibility. I wonder what Your Highness thinks?" Han Fang said to Li Chengqian, poking his neck.

"General Changsun committed himself to serving the thief in order to obtain evidence of the traitor's rebellion. According to this palace, such a loyal minister should be rewarded. How can he be detained?"

"Your Highness, how do you know that the eldest grandson Anye is committed to serving the thief? Who knows if the eldest grandson's family wants to get some benefits from it, right, eldest grandson Pushe." Zheng Yuan also ran out to join in the fun.

Changsun Wuji said coldly with a frosty face: "Zheng Yuan, you have evidence. You need to know what crime it is to accuse the prime minister of false accusations."

"Why does the eldest grandson Pushe want to use his status as a royal relative to suppress people?" Zheng Yuan retorted.

"The courtiers in my court can gossip, don't use power to overwhelm others." Xiao Yu walked up to Changsun Wuji to support Zheng Yuan.

"Zhao Guogong, the Qing is self-clearing, I should come and tell all the lovers." After hearing Li Chengqian's words, the eldest grandson Wuji stood back in the class.

"Song Guogong, if the eldest grandson Anye hadn't exposed it, how could the palace have followed the order to suppress the rebellion."

"Besides, whether it is Li Xiaochang or Liu Deyu, what can they give to the eldest grandson Anye, can they be as much as my father rewarded him?"

Xiao Yu: "If His Highness says so, then the old minister has nothing to say."

Li Chengqian walked down the jade steps: "Zheng Qing, the common people often say that taking stolen goods from others, catching traitors and doubles, you have no evidence in your hand, slandering the prime minister, mirroring the mother of the country, and alienating the empress, what crime should you say?"

Li Shimin held the hands hidden under his sleeves tightly. He knew that the aristocratic family had no bottom line in doing things, but he couldn't bear to challenge the imperial power again and again.This also strengthened his determination to get rid of the family and strengthen the imperial power.

Zheng Yuan was trembling all over, this is really rude to argue three points, who knows what's going on with such a big movement, he is not willing to let his eldest grandson Wuji go, after all, it was their nephew and uncle who killed him in Huazhou his nephew,

Zheng Yuan gritted his teeth and made up his mind to pull Li Chengqian and Changsun Wuji down no matter what: "Your Highness, you are spitting blood, it is clear that you are protecting the mother clan."

"Presumptuous, Zheng Yuan, you still dare to separate the father and son of the Tian family, and you still haven't apologized to His Majesty and the crown prince. Don't you want to rebel like Liu Deyu?" Fang Xuanling's words were like pouring cold water on Zheng Yuan's head. Yuan also didn't care about face,
Quickly knelt down: "Your Majesty, minister, I was just confused for a moment and mistrusted others' words, please forgive me, Your Majesty." After finishing speaking, he kowtowed again and again.

Li Shimin gave him a hand: "Zheng Qing was just deceived by a villain, and I and the crown prince will not argue with him, but the country's laws are strict, so we still need to be punished for minor punishments, so he will be dismissed from office and go back to Xingyang to retire. As for the grandson Anye, after the chaos in Lizhou is settled, he will be rewarded."

At this time, Li Chengqian came to Han Fang, knocked Han Fang down with one kick, and turned around to ask Wei Zheng, "For Shizhong, do you think I'm right?"

Wei Zheng glanced at Han Fang: "Your Highness is magnanimous, I think there is nothing wrong with it."

Du Ruhui got out of work and brought the topic back: "Your Majesty, please show me what should be done about the expedition."

"Pass down the decree to order Qin Qiong, the general of Zuowuwei, to be the chief of the Lizhou Road March, and Xie Yingdeng to be the deputy chief, commanding [-] troops to fight against the rebels."
