Zhenguan Crown Prince Li Chengqian

Chapter 488 Wei Zheng vs Wang Yu
If Wei Zheng doesn't make a move, he will be astonishing, and if he makes a move, it will be amazing. The impeachment of high officials this time not only involves court officials such as Changsun Wuji and Wang Gui, but also includes the governor of the Bingzhou Metropolitan Government far away in the north. There were 43 officials, big and small, including Li Ji, Jinzhou Inspector Wang Cheng, and Sun Huan, chief executive of Bingzhou Mutual Market Department.

This old guy wiped out all the officials of the State Governor's Mansion in one go. In his words, Li Ji, Wang Cheng, and Changsun Huan are simply lawless, rude and immoral beasts in clothes, who don't care about the face of scholar-bureaucrats at all. After reading the books of the saints, it has reached the point where it is tolerable or unbearable.

They opened a large number of prostitutes and casinos in several places in the north to entertain business travelers and Turkic people, and they also sold a large amount of fine wine, gold, stone and jade, silk and satin, etc., to make huge profits and make the original Qingming The exchange market has become a place of filth and obscenity.But when the passing officials raised their opinions on this, the slaves they raised fought violently, which not only insulted the official system, but also ignored the court's law.

The worst thing was Li Ji, who not only failed to fulfill his duty of guarding the border and reassuring the people, but also allowed the army to provide him with a convenient door to connive at the men under Bingzhou's rule and those Turkic women who were bought wantonly.Is the army under his command soldiers or bandits? People say that robbers have their own way. They wear the robes of the officers and soldiers, are they still doing human affairs?Is someone like Li Ji worthy of being called a contemporary Confucian general?Pooh, with his character, he is simply not as good as Zhu Jie back then.

All in all, the prince please severely punish these officials who have colluded with the military and the government to cause disasters and wantonly amass money. How can people like this who have no character, no virtue, no king, no father, and no sense of shame deserve to be the imperial officials? If you let them go, sooner or later It is a great harm to the country.

And the reason why they have such courage, isn't it because they have the support of the eldest grandson's family and Taiyuan Wang family?If Changsun Wuji and Wang Gui didn't mediate for them in the court, how could they get through so many joints? You must know how difficult it is to get through all the channels for Goguryeo's female slaves and various goods.

After listening to Wei Zheng's words, Li Chengqian who was sitting on it couldn't help having a toothache. After looking back at the throne behind him, Li Chengqian really envied the emperor in his heart. Don't listen to Wei Zheng's nagging here.

It's not that Li Chengqian dared to do it, because he was afraid that people would know that he ordered it, but that there were many generals in the palace who had surrendered from the Turks, and a large number of corrupt civil servants. Mobei ministries.Not to mention the Turkic generals' renunciation and morality, if the literati and inkmen make such a publicity, not only their own reputation will be lost, but the prestige of the imperial court will also be severely hit.

Wei Zheng, Wei Zheng, you are also a highly resourceful scribe, don't you understand such an obvious way of exhausting the enemy?Are you really ignorant, or are you just pretending to be confused here with the understanding.

Look at the mess you caused, a dozen Qingliu officials followed you and yelled at you, and Kong Yingda and other Confucian leaders also started to say that a gentleman should not speak or look at injustice. How could such a morally corrupt thing happen in the I am in heaven.

Since someone challenged him, someone had to take over. Wang Gui was afraid of everything in his life, but he was not afraid of fighting against others. The Taiyuan Wang family and Donggong are now allies, with huge interests in front of them, and the past grievances are nothing. what happened.

The patriarch is right, the country belongs to their Li family, as long as it is beneficial to the Wang family, it is different to support the prince, not to mention that the prince is appointed by the emperor and is a legitimate successor.Just look at the dividends of the family in the past year, and you will know how much it is. Wang Gui still understands the truth of cannibalism.

Now that old fellow Wei Zheng has come to his door again, we must swear to the death to defend the interests of the Wang family, bah, no, it is the crown prince's national policy to stabilize the frontier and eliminate future troubles forever.

After saluting to Li Chengqian, Wang Gui turned to Wei Zheng, pinched his waist and chatted eloquently, "Wei Xiang, the purpose of the imperial court's establishment of the mutual market is to stabilize the frontiers and exchange what is needed, so it is only natural to promote merchants!"

Next, Wang Gui explained to everyone the many benefits obtained by the imperial court after opening up the mutual market. The use of salt, wine, tea and iron from the Tang Dynasty not only exchanged a large number of war horses, cattle and sheep, but also played a role in promoting the population of the border areas. Function, isn't this in line with the national policy of emphasizing life and people issued by His Majesty at the beginning of Zhenguan!
Besides, the Turkic people are willing to exchange women for fine wine and silk, which is the same as how we usually use silver. Who made them not have a complete currency system?You Wei Zheng is the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, not the prime minister of the Mobei tribes. The Turkic people didn't say anything, you are not a dog and a mouse, meddle in your own business!

Moreover, there is no law in the imperial court prohibiting the aristocratic family from engaging in business, and the Wang family voluntarily pays three times the tax, which is reasonable and legal. If the family in the upper echelon is jealous, they can come and invest money. This money is not earned by one person. Not a flower.

As for what Li Ji did, it was even more unreasonable. Those Turkic women were legally bought and sold, not robbed, and there was no place to cause trouble, so why should they control them.

Who are they willing to sleep with? Is it his long history that can manage it?This is the custom in Turkic. If you can't see it, then resign and go to the North to teach those women what is etiquette, righteousness and shame. If you can't do it, don't say it is useless.

"Wang Gui, the old man sees that you are blindfolded by money, and now you don't care about your face. In this way, it is a cover for the Wang family to pass on poems and ceremonies to the family, but it is actually a place for men to steal and prostitute. How can such a family be admired by the people?" , It’s really chilling.”

Seeing Wei Zheng's contemptuous expression, Wang Gui smiled: "Xuan Cheng, anyone can say big things, and everyone can flaunt this nobility, but how many people can really do it. Some people are positive, and some are willing to degenerate , It’s all a person’s own choice, you, you are too lenient. As long as you don’t break the law and don’t ruin the people of Tang Dynasty, it’s no big deal!”

"You, Wang Gui, you are shameless."

"The old man recognizes Tang Law, and everything else doesn't count."

"Have all the books of sages read to the dog's stomach?".
The two sides were talking back and forth, and Li Chengqian on the top smiled knowingly, chaos, the more chaos the better at this time, the more chaos the better for those in power, the emperor probably thought so when he was sitting here.

So, he pretended to be solemn and took pictures of the case, and said seriously: "Okay, don't quarrel anymore, they are all important ministers of the country, what's the proper way to be noisy, don't you care about the official status?
Although the problems in the exchange market do not violate the criminal law, my Tang Dynasty is a country of etiquette, so we still need to pay attention to the scale that should be paid attention to.Immediately, he ordered the imperial edict of Zhongshu Province to reprimand the officials who were impeached by Wei Xiang, and ordered them to rectify within a time limit, otherwise they would be dismissed and seized titles, and they would not be punished severely! " After finishing speaking, he snorted coldly, flicked his sleeves, Li Chengqian got up and walked towards the back hall.
