Li Er of the Tang Dynasty: Ancestor Xie is here!

Chapter 64 Punishing Traitors and Eliminating Evil
Yuan Cong bowed to the ground and couldn't control his tears.

The grievances of being ignored by Li Xian were swept away. At this moment, he felt that the world was extremely broad.

"Become the King Li Qianli," Li Shimin looked at his eldest grandson, felt a little sentimental for a moment, and then added the title: "Li Qianli has made great contributions to the country, and he is named King of Wu."

Li Qianli choked and couldn't control himself. King Wu was the title of his father Li Ke when he was still alive.Being able to inherit his father's title meant that Emperor Taizong recognized him. How could he not be excited?
Except for Yuan Congyi and Li Qianli, all the remaining heroes and loyal ministers who were still alive were praised and bestowed with titles. There was a prosperous atmosphere inside and outside the court.

"After talking about loyal ministers, naturally I want to talk about treacherous ministers." Li Shimin glanced at him, "I have also heard something about Song Zhiwen and Song Zhisun brothers. I heard that these two brothers were demoted to Lingnan for flattering the Zhang brothers. Sneaking back to Luoyang secretly, Wang Tongjiao, the prince of Anyang County, took pity on them and took them in his home."

"However, in order to covet glory and wealth, the Second Song Dynasty actually repaid kindness with hatred and secretly recorded the daily words and deeds of Prince Anyang in a book, and then delivered it to Wu Sansi in a secret letter..."

"The people once told me that the scarlet robes on these two people were dyed with the blood of Prince Anyang, and I deeply believe it!"

In the Tang Dynasty, officials of the third rank and above wore purple, and officials of the fifth rank and above wore scarlet robes.After killing Wang Tongjiao, Wu Sansi promoted brothers Song Zhiwen and Song Zhisun to the fifth rank of Beijing officials, so they wore scarlet robes.

"Come on!"

Li Shimin shouted, and guards immediately entered the palace, waiting for instructions.

"Take off these two people's robes and take them to the prison to be executed on a certain day!"

"Yes!"

The guards immediately took off the official robes of the Song brothers who had already collapsed on the ground, lifted them up and headed towards the prison.

"Cui Shi, a member of Zhongshushe, was an old friend of Fuyang County Prince Huan Yanfan. In the past, the county king had many supports for him. However, he unexpectedly betrayed his friends to seek glory and took refuge with Wu Sansi. He joined forces with Zheng Yin and Luo Zhi to accuse Zhang, Cambodia and other five kings. Think twice about murder...someone is coming!"

"Take these two people to the sky prison and kill them on another day!"

Speaking of this, I have to mention Zheng Min.

This man... has some of Lu's characteristics. He thought that when he took refuge with the cruel official Lai Junchen, Lai Junchen was killed; later he took refuge with brothers Zhang Changzong and Zhang Yizhi, and the two brothers were killed; and then he took refuge with Wu Sansi, and the prince Li Chongjun was killed. When the Jinglong coup was launched, according to the original history, Wu Sansi was also killed.

If nothing unexpected happens, he will seek refuge with Princess Taiping in the future... As for Princess Taiping's ending...

Obviously, this man does have something to say.

The last one like this was the master and servant of Lu and Liu Bei from the Three Kingdoms.

The next person to be so lucky will be a man named Sanada from Japan.

After the guards captured the two men, Li Shimin opened his mouth and asked: "Where is Zhou Lizhen, the censor?"

There was a splash, and everyone immediately dispersed. Among them, the one kneeling on the ground and trembling uncontrollably was Zhou Lizhen.

The courtiers also sneered at this person. No matter which faction they belonged to, they actually didn't like him very much.However, he surrendered to Wu Sansi, and Wu Sansi was the favorite of the current emperor, so no one could do anything to him.

Now that Emperor Taizong is in charge, Zhou Lizhen has no protective umbrella. Therefore, the officials no longer hide their disgust for Zhou Lizhen, and draw a hollow circle with Zhou Lizhen as the center, as if they are hiding from the plague.

"Zhou Lizhen is such a bastard...ah, he flatters and flatters and kills loyal ministers. What he does makes even me feel cold!"

"I have a very new way of dealing with you."

Having said this, Li Shimin glanced at Li Qing, who was sitting on a small horse, and asked in a low voice: "Brother, is there a way for people to be tortured and not die?" "Of course there is, how many days will it take?" Li Qing replied with a smile. He was also extremely unhappy with Zhou Lizhen.

He definitely couldn't die so happily, otherwise wouldn't it make the loyal ministers in the world feel cold?

After receiving the answer, Li Shimin turned to Zhou Lizhen, his eyes full of disgust: "I will allow you to live for ten days, but in these ten days, the torture you inflicted on Huan Yanfan, Jinghui and Yuan Shuji will happen to you every day. Apply it several times!”

Zhou Lizhen didn't hold back and peed on the hall on the spot.

He knew the three loyal ministers who were killed by him

"Go, give this to him." Li Shimin took the medicine from Li Qing and handed it to Li Chongjun who was standing next to him.

Li Chongjun took the pill, walked down and handed it to the guards. He watched them stuff the pill into Zhou Lizhen's mouth before returning to the top.

"Pull it off!" Li Shimin waved his hands in disgust. He didn't want to see Zhou Lizhen for a moment.

"As for Wu Sansi, his treatment is the same as that of Zhou Lizhen." Li Shimin added again: "In addition, a kneeling statue of Wu Sansi must be placed in front of the tomb of every loyal minister he killed. I will make him infamy for thousands of years! "

"Queen Weishi is a filthy and chaotic palace. She formed a clique with her daughter for personal gain to spy on the artifact. From now on, Queen Weishi will be deposed as a commoner of Wei, and Princess Anle will be a commoner of Anle!"

"Princess Changning and Princess Ding'an, as children of the Tian family, do not know how to care for the people, and do many illegal things. They even allow the servants to kidnap the children of common people and make them slaves. I am very heartbroken, and I will depose them as common people!"

"In addition, post a notice that I will put these traitors on trial in Chang'an in three days! Dismiss the court!"

After the ministers left, Li Zhi asked worriedly: "Father, it's enough to put Wu Sansi and others on trial in public. If members of the royal family like Wei Shuren and Anle Shuren are tried in public in front of the people, you are not afraid that the royal majesty will be ruined." ?"

Li Shimin glanced at Li Zhi: "Your uncle brought up this matter, so what if we drag that bastard Li Xian to a public trial? As long as your uncle is happy, I will be happy!"

Li Qing:  …

Why did you make me look like Bao Si?

So weird.

"Besides, do you think the royal family of the Tang Dynasty still has any majesty under the corruption of these people?" Li Shimin sighed: "The majesty of the royal family cannot be based on fear, and it will not last long."

"The most important thing is to rely on the love and support of the people. I always tell you, the king is the boat; the people are the water; water can carry the boat, but it can also overturn it."

Indeed, it can not only carry and capsize boats, but also row boats.

"As long as the people of the world respect and love the royal family, I don't believe that any child can cause chaos."

When Li Qing heard this, he gave Li Shimin a thumbs up.

Look, how else could he be my good brother, Li Qing? Brother Li’s awareness has always been remarkable.

"I also want to clearly tell those lawbreakers in the clan, as well as the children of high-ranking officials. If the prince breaks the law, he is as guilty as the common people, let alone them!"
