The strongest emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

Chapter 277 Li Tai Pleads for Pei Ji

Wei Zheng said to Li Shimin in the Jinluan Hall: "Report to the Emperor, I have followed His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the King of Wei, and we have indeed found a secret room in Pei Ji's mansion."

"Have you ever found the fake Shangfang mace that Li Tai said?" Li Shimin asked Wei Zheng.

"I found it, not only the fake Shangfang mace, but also countless rare treasures." Wei Zheng said to Li Shimin.

"Father, my son has already asked Yuchi Baolin and Yuchi Baoqing to bring those rare treasures to the palace. Father will see them soon." Li Tai said to Li Shimin.

"Pei Ji, this is the end of the matter, do you have anything else to say?" Li Shimin said to Pei Ji angrily.

"Your Majesty, I was infatuated with ghosts for a while, so please forgive me this time." Pei Ji kowtowed to Li Shimin as if smashing garlic.

"According to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, what you have done is already enough to kill everyone. But I think you have the merits of being a dragon, so I will spare you the death penalty. Go back to your hometown and live your life." Li Shimin said after waving his hands.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for not killing me." Pei Ji immediately thanked him.In fact, Pei Ji also knew that this ending is definitely the best.

At this time, the official of Huangmen came to report.It is said that Yuchi Baolin and Yuchi Baoqing are waiting outside the hall with a carriage.

"Let them come in, I also want to see what good things Pei Ji has kept." Li Shimin said.

Not long after, Yuchi Baolin and Yuchi Baoqing walked in, and after paying respects to Li Shimin, they said: "My Majesty, I am under the orders of King Wei to transport the rare treasures found in Pei Ji's mansion to the Imperial Palace. Now the carriage is parked outside the palace gate."

"Since what is brought here is a rare treasure, let's bring it up and open my eyes." Li Shimin said to Yuchi and Baolin brothers.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid the Emperor needs to move around to watch it. After all, the number is too large. If it is displayed one by one in the Golden Luan Hall, I am afraid that there will be no time to complete it." Yuchi Baolin said to Li Shimin.

Hearing Yuchi Baolin's words, Li Shimin couldn't help being stunned, could it be that Pei Ji really took away such a huge number of rare treasures?

So Li Shimin walked out of the Jinluan Hall with all the civil and military officials.And asked Yuchi Baolin to drive the carriage to the outside of the Jinluan Hall.

Not long after, a carriage appeared in front of everyone, and several huge wooden boxes were mounted on the carriage.

Li Shimin ordered people to open the wooden box, and rare treasures appeared in front of everyone.After Li Shimin walked over, he casually picked up a few pieces.

After reading it, Li Shimin suddenly said angrily to Pei Ji: "I think you have the merit of being a dragon, and I am going to let you go. But I didn't expect that you would be so corrupt and perverted that you dared to store the things of the previous dynasty in your at home."

It turned out that the few things Li Shimin picked up were all treasures belonging to the Sui Palace.It can be said that this time Pei Ji completely violated the taboo.

"Come here, let me put Pei Ji in prison. Dali Temple will torture him severely. After the guilt is verified, he will be investigated and prosecuted according to the law." Li Shimin said angrily.

"Father, please calm down. My son has something to say to Father." Li Tai said to Li Shimin.

"Speak to me if you have anything to say." Li Shimin said coldly.It can be seen from Li Shimin's tone that he is in a rage at this time.

"Father, I feel that the original sentence should be maintained against Pei Ji. As the saying goes, there is no joke. Just now, Father has pardoned Pei Ji."

"If the Dali Temple is to be thoroughly investigated now, some people may say that the father has turned his back on what he said. He also said that the father killed the donkey and killed the founding heroes indiscriminately." Li Tai said to Li Shimin.

"What he did is not a heinous crime. How can I spare him like this. If other ministers do the same, then the Tang Dynasty is in chaos." Li Shimin scolded Li Tai angrily.

Li Tai came to Li Chengqian's side, and said to Li Chengqian in a low voice: "Brother Huang, don't you want to plead with Emperor Father for Pei Ji's sake?"

Although Li Tai's voice was not loud, others could still hear him.So everyone looked at Li Chengqian.

To say that Li Chengqian's reaction was quite quick, he immediately said to Li Shimin: "Father, my brother is right, father can't go back on what he says. But father also said, we can't set a precedent for this matter."

"But father can confiscate all of Pei Ji's assets and let his whole family leave Chang'an City cleanly. Then no one will say anything."

"Father, Brother Huang is right. I also ask Father to forgive Pei Ji." Li Tai said.

At the same time, other ministers also began to intercede for Pei Ji, but at first Li Shimin couldn't let go.Later, Li Shimin's personal eunuch whispered something in Li Shimin's ear.

Only then did Li Shimin speak: "Pei Ji, today, for the sake of the Supreme Emperor, I will spare you your life. Just follow the prince's wishes."

After hearing Li Shimin's words, Pei Ji hurriedly knelt on the ground to thank Li Shimin.At the same time, I did not forget to thank the Supreme Emperor Li Yuan.

The matter finally came to a conclusion, and Li Shimin returned to the harem angrily.The original joy of getting the Akasaka Sword disappeared, of course there is nothing left.

All civil and military officials looked at Pei Ji with pitiful eyes, and then left the palace one after another.And Pei Ji was escorted back to the prime minister's mansion.

……

Prime Minister's Mansion.

"Prime Minister Pei, do you regret it now?" Li Tai said while pouring wine for Pei Ji.

"The king of Wei came to see the old man's joke, and he came to practice it for the old man. If he came to see the old man's joke, you can leave now. If he came to see the old man's practice, then the old man really can't bear it .” Pei Ji said with his back to Li Tai.

"Today, this king is indeed here to practice for Prime Minister Pei. This king will not ask Prime Minister Pei why he is against this king everywhere. Because this king is as clear as Prime Minister Pei in his heart. So Prime Minister Pei can do it." Drink with peace of mind." Li Tai said with a smile.

"I didn't expect that the person who came to practice for the old man today would be the deadly enemy of the old man, King Wei Li Tai." Pei Ji said self-deprecatingly.

"However, I really have one thing to ask Prime Minister Pei. It is the people who built the secret room for you. Can you still find them now?" Li Tai said to Pei Ji.

"Why, does King Wei also want to build a secret room? As far as I know, King Wei's Palace of King Wei has been built like a wall of iron." Pei Ji said to Li Tai.

"What the king wants to do, you don't need to worry about it. You just need to tell the king whether you can find it or not. Let it be the king's farewell gift for you." Li Tai said to Pei Ji.

"Indeed, if the King of Wei hadn't been the first to intercede for the old man, it is estimated that the old man is decapitated by now. Now with this feeling of practice, there is no reason for the old man not to speak." After Pei Ji smiled wryly twice , said to Li Tai.

"This king will never take advantage of people for no reason. As long as Prime Minister Pei said the other party, this king can find Jing's family. This king will protect Prime Minister Pei's food and clothing for the rest of his life." Li Tai said to Pei Ji.
