I directed the Xuanwumen Incident

Chapter 549 In order to release one person, release all condemned prisoners? !

Li Shimin's entire face turned dark all of a sudden.

"I knew you were going to mention him."

Li Er said unhappily,
"In the world of Great Tang, is it the person surnamed Xu who has the final say, or the person surnamed Li who has the final say? Hmm?"

"If he has an opinion, then I will be unable to move an inch?"

"joke!"

Snapped!
The cigarette butt in his hand was thrown to the ground, and Li Shimin stepped on it several times, from three-dimensional to two-dimensional.

"Return to Your Majesty, that's not the case."

Fang Xuanling said seriously,

"At the beginning when Hou Junji was sent to the prison, he committed a serious crime. He was supposed to be executed, but His Majesty lenient and delayed his death."

"At that time, you also made a tacit agreement with the Grand Master...Although I don't know what the specific content is, I guess, it should be that the Grand Master no longer asks Hou Junji to be executed, but his people must sit in prison for as long as possible. die."

"Your Majesty...should have agreed, right?"

Li Shimin snorted coldly, noncommittal.

But it is also the default.

"After reaching a tacit agreement, both parties should abide by it."

Fang Xuanling said again,
"If you release Hou Junji, wouldn't that break the tacit understanding? What will the Grand Master think then?"

"If you can give him a day off today, wouldn't you be able to give him a day off in the future? Then what's the point of this punishment?"

"Your Majesty, don't start with this... otherwise the Grand Master will be disappointed."

Li Shimin frowned.

He knew that he was testing Xu Fenglei's bottom line, and he shouldn't do this.

But Hou Junji's appearance just now was really moving and distressing...

As a monarch full of empathy, he really wanted Hou Junji to reunite with his family, even if it was only for one day.

"This...how should I go about it?"

Li Shimin rubbed his forehead and said in confusion,

"Ugh!"

"I really... I knew I wouldn't be here today!"

It's okay if I don't see you, seeing... I can't hold back my emotions!
"Auxiliary machine, you have always been resourceful, so you can think of a way to get the best of both worlds!"

Li Shimin looked at Changsun Wuji and ordered,
"Hou Junji must be reunited with his family, and it must be at his home!"

"But at the same time...you can't let Xu Fenglei cause too many problems! He resigns every now and then, and I also have a headache..."

Changsun Wuji: "..."

Good guy!
You can't think of a way to do this yourself, so I have a way?
"Your Majesty, you can just forgive me. How can I have any good ideas?"

Changsun Wuji smiled wryly,
"You can't have your cake and eat it at the same time... But, after all, this is not about releasing Hou Junji directly, and the Grand Master will not turn his face directly."

"It's just that no matter what, if you let Hou Junji go out for even a day, he will have emotions. I can only say, try to make him less emotional!"

Li Shimin's eyes lit up.

"Yes, yes, that's what it means."

He continued,
"As long as you don't feel too emotional, you can coax her again when the time comes."

"I'm going to be self-willed for once, and I will never do this again in the future!"

"Hurry up and help me find a way!"

"Xuanling, you come too! If you can come up with a good idea, I will reward you!"

Fang Xuanling: "..."

Changsun Wuji: "..."

The two looked at each other, seeing the helplessness in each other's eyes.

Your Majesty, Your Majesty, this is really tossing.

"Okay. Since His Majesty insists on this... I think about it."

Fang Xuanling sighed lightly and said,
"First of all, it is definitely not acceptable to release Hou Junji alone. This will not only cause dissatisfaction with the grand master, but also criticism from the government and the public."

"To do this, you have to find a reason, and then..."

Snapped!
Li Shimin clapped his hands and said hastily:

"Yes, yes! Find a reason! Then mix Hou Junji in, and get away with it..."

"Well... how about releasing all the condemned prisoners! Let them go home for a day and reunite with their parents, wives and children! See... how about this?"

Fang Xuanling: "￥%...&*@#"

In order to release one person, all the death row prisoners were released?
Isn't this pure and sick!
How could this be something a normal, mature king could do?

"Do not……"

Fang Xuanling shook his head repeatedly, and was about to refute, but heard Changsun Wuji say:

"Not to mention, it might work."

"But...Your Majesty, we are speaking on our own. To put it bluntly, we have to operate this matter under the banner of exercising benevolent governance."

Li Shimin raised his eyes and stared at Changsun Wuji.

"Details!" he urged,
"Death prisoner is also a human being. As a human being, he will make mistakes. If he makes a mistake, he should be given a chance to repent. Even if he repents, he will still be executed. After he is executed, he can become a good ghost."

"There is a saying that knowing a mistake can make a big difference. If it can awaken the conscience of the prisoners on death row, that would be a good thing."

The eldest grandson Wuji said,
"Among those death row prisoners, there are actually quite a few who want to go home and meet their families, even if they want to say their last words."

"If His Majesty let them out and go home for a day, then they must be very grateful, thank you Lord Ron."

"This can also reflect His Majesty's benevolence."

Li Shimin nodded slightly.

"Then what if they escape after returning home? Where will they be arrested then?"

Fang Xuanling frowned and said,

"There are quite a few of them here, all of whom are extremely vicious!"

"If he escapes, it will definitely bring disaster to the people! This...isn't this nonsense!"

Changsun Wuji shook his head.

"Don't be in a hurry."

He said again,
"Before we release them, we naturally have to make an agreement with them for three chapters."

"If they run away after being released, then the court will not only hunt them down, but also implicate their family members to death! Because this has failed His Majesty's benevolence, they should die! I believe that no one will say anything No word."

"But if after release, everyone can return to the prison on their own initiative as scheduled, some rewards can be given."

"For example...all death row inmates are postponed for one year to be beheaded. In this way, as long as they are not fools, they will definitely come back!"

"At the same time, Your Majesty also has a reason to defer Hou Junji's death sentence for another year. After all, it is... a year of reprieve is a year! Next year, think about the reason for next year. Anyway, this year will not be able to kill him."

"Besides, if this matter is done well and all the condemned prisoners come back, it will definitely be a beautiful story. The monarch is merciful to release, and the prisoners awaken their conscience and return with integrity. This is a great achievement of enlightenment! It is inevitable! It can shine in the annals of history to spread the reputation of His Majesty!"

After Li Shimin heard these words, the corners of Li Shimin's mouth rose wildly.

"Auxiliary machine, auxiliary machine, it has to be you, it has to be you!"

"Hahahaha... good good!"

Li Er laughed heartily, waved his hand, and said,
"Ai Qing's words won my heart! I will do as you say!"
