Prince of Tang Dynasty is too arrogant

Chapter 86
A very strange scene appeared in the court hall. The ministers were all blushing with anger, but no one dared to speak.

It's not that they didn't dare, and they were so stunned by Li Chengqian that they couldn't speak...

Wei Zheng hurriedly stood up, bowed and cupped his hands and said, "His Royal Highness! This is just your inference, how can you kill innocent people so indiscriminately!?"

Li Chengqian said indifferently: "Dare to ask Mr. Wei, but he has seen the criminal evidence of the prefect of Youzhou?"

"Of course I have already seen it!" Wei Zheng then said again: "What Zheng Wei, the prefect of Youzhou, has done is outrageous, and deserves to be killed!"

"However, the members of this aristocratic family have not yet been determined. Criminal responsibility! Is His Royal Highness killing innocent people indiscriminately?"

Li Chengqian looked at Wei Zheng with a smile and said, "Your Excellency Wei, you should be clear! There are mostly refugees in Youzhou City! The common people are starved of food, but the people in these shops are transporting food and other supplies to the Turkic direction at night! Isn't this... Is it collaborating with the enemy and treason?"

"The people in these shops transported food and other materials away, and the people fell into a situation of having money and no food! Besides, there was a riot on the border!"

"If there is no food in the city! How can the people of our Tang Dynasty survive? Is it possible that our soldiers of the Tang Dynasty will go hungry to defend their homes and defend the country?"

"If it weren't for the blood of our Tang soldiers to protect us! Why are you waiting for the cinnabar hat?"

Li Chengqian snorted coldly and said: "Hmph! The people in these shops transported away the food just to starve to death the people in the city, and my good man of Tang Dynasty! In order to make Youzhou City fall without attack! The people in these shops have their hearts Executionable!"

Cheng Yaojin hurriedly stood up, bowed and cupped his hands, and said, "Your Majesty, the people in these shops are no better than animals!"

He deliberately said people from the shop, but not people from the family. In this way, the prince can be exonerated, and secondly, he will not offend the people from the family in the court......

Yu Chigong also hurriedly stood up, bowed and cupped his hands and said: "The lamb knows the grace of kneeling! These people in the shops will wantonly collect money from the people whenever the country is in trouble, and now they are collaborating with the enemy and treason! They should be killed!"

Li Ji also stood up, bowed and cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty! I would like to ask for credit for His Highness the Crown Prince! His Highness the Crown Prince had insight into the opportunity and killed the ghosts in the Tang Dynasty, so that the Tang Dynasty survived! I think that the Crown Prince should be rewarded." Your Highness!"

Li Ergang wants to speak!

Wei Zheng suddenly jumped out again and said, "Report to Your Majesty! All the people killed by His Royal Highness are people from aristocratic shops!"

The officials of the aristocratic family were also very surprised. Unexpectedly, Wei Zheng actually spoke to them, "...

Immediately, they quickly seized this opportunity, stood up one by one, bowed and cupped their hands and said, "My Majesty! People in my family do business according to their duties! It is absolutely impossible to collude with the enemy and treason!"

"Report to Your Majesty! The members of my family are deeply attached to the Tang Dynasty, and there is absolutely no way they could collude with the enemy and treason!"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, there is a food shortage in Chang'an City recently, and the shopkeepers of my aristocratic family accepted our order to transport part of the food back to Chang'an City!"

Wang Gui, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, made the court quiet again...

Li Chengqian asked indifferently: "Then I will ask Mr. Wang! The four city gates of Youzhou are opened at the same time. It stands to reason that the east gate is the gate leading to the official road. Why do these people bring a large amount of supplies to the north?" The door went straight to the Turks?"

"Could it be that Mr. Wang deliberately arranged it? Or is Mr. Wang the mastermind behind this?"

"Impossible! His Royal Highness clearly only opened the north gate!..."" Wang Gui was frightened into a cold sweat, he knew that he had been tricked!

Once he admitted that he gave the order, wouldn't he directly admit the crime! _
What's more, the order to open the city gate was given by the prince, and now everyone is dead, there is no proof of death...

Immediately, he knelt on the ground and cupped his hands to Li Er and said, "Your Majesty, I have been wronged! I ordered it to be transported back to Chang'an, but did not allow it to transport the grain to Turkic! Your Majesty, please check!"

Li Chengqian saw that one of the aristocratic families had softened, but the other aristocratic families had not moved, so he said indifferently: "Could it be that the other aristocratic families have given the same order."

Lu Junyi, Minister of the Household Department, hurriedly stood up, bowed and cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I have never issued such an order, and those people must have made their own decisions!"

"Besides, there are so many branches in the Lu clan, there must be people who betray the clan!"

Li Chengqian let out a sneer, and then continued: "The prefect of Youzhou said that he was a member of the Zheng family before he died! He even threatened the palace! Could it be that Master Zheng ordered this?"

Zheng Jingming, Shangshu of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, scolded Zheng Wei thousands of times in his heart... This bastard who suffered a thousand knives even confessed his family before he died...

Immediately, he hurriedly knelt on the ground and cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty! I haven't been in touch with Zheng Wei, the prefect of Youzhou, for many years! The blood relationship has been broken long ago!"

All the ministers let out a sneer, will these aristocratic families break their blood and family?
Even if you are far away on the border, as long as you have an official status, you will definitely protect each other and search for people's wealth...

Li Chengqian turned to Wei Zheng and said, "I don't know if Mr. Wei still wants to seek justice for these damned people?"

"In other words, wait for these people to cooperate with the Turkic soldiers inside and out, break Liangzhou City and come to the Weishui River again! Master Wei can personally go to the army to fight?"

I saw that Wei Zheng's face remained unchanged, he stood up expressionlessly, bowed and cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, since the truth seems to be revealed, His Highness the Crown Prince has made another remarkable achievement!"

"Minister! Pray for His Highness the Crown Prince! His Majesty the Crown Prince has made such a remarkable achievement, His Majesty will reward you rationally!"

"My minister agrees!"

"My minister agrees!"

The ministers have seconded their proposals......

Li Er suddenly felt in a good mood. If it wasn't for the morning court at this moment, he couldn't help laughing out loud......

This rebellious son not only turned the accusation into success this time, but also created a rift within the aristocratic family...

I am afraid that within a period of time in the future, these aristocratic families will definitely not unite together for revenge...

This rebellious son is really brave and resourceful, it seems that he should have inherited my blood...

Then he waved his hand and said, "I don't know what kind of reward the prince wants for such a remarkable achievement?"

Li Chengqian didn't even think about it, and then he bowed and cupped his hands and said, "I want to report to my father! Since I want to reward my sons and ministers, naturally my father must be the master!"

The ministers all showed expressions of appreciation to the prince. Although they have meritorious service and are a bit arrogant on weekdays, it is really rare not to be proud of the credit...

But what Li Chengqian thought in his heart was, what else could be rewarded?No money, no food......
