God-level prince of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 987
In the palace, Li Shimin, Empress Changsun, Li Chengqian, Wu Zetian and Zheng Liwan were having breakfast.

Beside them are Xue Rengui, Fang Xuanling, Cheng Yaojin, Cheng Chumo, Du Gou, Fang Yizhi, Yuchi Baolin and others.

They stood on the left and right. As for the other civil and military officials, they had never arrived. Today, after welcoming Li Chengqian, they performed their respective duties, because daily affairs cannot be neglected.

Otherwise, if the entire Tang Dynasty is to operate, there may be mistakes, which is not good.

At the same time, a group of people waited to eat.

After finishing, Cheng Yaojin pulled Cheng Chumo and stood up.

Let him kneel directly in front of everyone.

Faced with such a situation, Li Shimin was puzzled.

"Zhijie, why are you doing this?"

After Cheng Yaojin arranged for an army of 30, he returned early.After he came back, he learned about Cheng Chumo. He also knew that his child had caused a disaster and caused too many casualties in the army.It's a big deal, and it needs to be punished.

As for Li Chengqian who stayed in Tubo for several days, during this period of time, no one was punished in the whole palace.

And Cheng Yaojin's purpose of doing so is very obvious.

That was the mistake Cheng Chumo made in Tubo some time ago, and now he has to settle it.

"Your Majesty, my son Chumo didn't make any great achievements in the past, but he made a lot of mistakes. His Highness the Crown Prince has never punished him. Just when His Highness the Crown Prince returns, he should be punished as well, so as to correct the morale of the army!"

Regarding the morale of the army, Cheng Yaojin knew very well that this was an absolute fairness, if Cheng Chumo had not been punished, it might cause dissatisfaction.

Once disobedient, the morale of the army will be unstable and the combat power will be defeated.

Why should the people below be punished for making mistakes, but you, as Cheng Yaojin's child, should be exempted from punishment?
All this is so unreasonable!
The emperor made a mistake, and Shang and the common people were guilty of the same crime.

How could he, Cheng Chumohed, be exempted from punishment?

"Your Majesty, I am willing to be punished!"

Cheng Chumo didn't escape in any way, he took this punishment squarely.

Li Shimin didn't understand what was going on.

"Gao Ming, it's up to you to decide! After all, you brought out the army. And you know what Chu Mo committed, so I won't be involved in it."

Li Shimin really knows how to behave, so he handed over the matter to Li Chengqian.

"Yes! Father!"

Li Chengqian stood up.

It took so long to start the punishment that was not completed before. It was because the enemy did not punish him in particular. Now it seems necessary to count it.

"In view of Chu Mo's previous mistakes, this king has decided..."

Li Chengqian paused for a while, thinking about how to punish him.Although there are ideas, the sentencing should be reasonable, not too heavy, let alone not too light, that is not good!

Cheng Yaojin said, "Your Highness, you don't have to be polite, just do whatever you want! You're welcome!"

Cheng Chu gave his father a silent look, what else?The prince naturally knows how to punish, so you won't be quiet?
But now in front of Li Shimin again, he had to bow his head, and he couldn't show his sharpness too much, otherwise he would implicate others.

So he chose to remain silent, waiting for Li Chengqian's punishment.

"Uncle Cheng, don't worry, you can do whatever you want. This king will not forgive lightly, let alone be too harsh. This king will deal with it fairly!"

After finishing, he said again: "This king has decided to punish Cheng Chumo. He will stay at home to learn the art of war, and he will be beaten fifty times with a cane. Cheng Yaojin will handle the cane with a stick, and he will stay for probation. He will not be able to go out until he is qualified!"

Long before, Li Chengqian had demoted Cheng Chumo, so this time, there was no need for him to demote again.

Fifty sticks, ordinary people can't bear it, but Cheng Chumo has practiced martial arts, it is possible, but he may not be able to go out for more than ten days, if this is the case, if Li Chengqian wants to go out, he can't keep up, this is also a punishment A sort of.

On the contrary, Cheng Yaojin spoke slightly.

"Your Highness, you are wrong."

"Oh? Zhijie, what's wrong with Gao Ming?"

Li Shimin asked curiously.

"This punishment should come from the army, what is it for me to do?"

He refused in his heart, why?Because he is Cheng Chumo's father, this Li Chengqian is really cruel, why let a father execute his child?He doesn't want to punish!

Li Shimin was silent.Empress Changsun didn't speak either.

They also want to know why?
Why did Li Chengqian let Cheng Yaojin do this.

But Li Chengqian said: "The so-called son does not teach, it is the father's fault! The reason why Chu Mo has today's punishment, Uncle Cheng has an unshirkable responsibility, the so-called beating the child, the pain lies in the father's heart, the punishment lies in Chu Mo, In fact, Uncle Cheng also needs to be punished, and letting him hold the stick is also a punishment for him."

Having said that, Cheng Yaojin was speechless.

Because what he said is not wrong, all this is because he did not teach well, and if he taught well, this situation would not happen.

Therefore, the [-] boards must come from him!

Li Shimin laughed.

"Gao Ming is right, Zhi Jie, it's up to you! Others are not good enough."

"This is!"

Cheng Yaojin had no choice but to make up his mind about this stick.

"Is there anything else you want to say?"

Li Shimin asked again.

"No, no, His Royal Highness did a great job, I have nothing to say!"

Then Li Chengqian said again: "Father, as for Su Lie and Wang Xuance who are traveling together?"

Although the contribution of the two people is great this time, it is still not very big.

The two of them, together with Xue Rengui, are the champion generals, and it is not time to be reappointed. Because of insufficient military exploits, Cheng Yaojin has worked hard for a long time to get to his current position.

And the two of them couldn't have climbed up so quickly.

So Li Shimin has his own ideas.

Therefore, he said: "As for the merits of the two, it should be determined by Gao Ming!"

Li Chengqian glanced at Li Shimin, wanting to curse.

I thought that the entire high-ranking position would be given to the two, but now, Li Shimin kicked the ball towards him.

He doesn't have a particularly great power to appoint officials, but rewards are okay.

In this case, Li Chengqian can only reward them with money, or some other material.

After accumulating military exploits next time, no matter what, you have to discuss it with Li Shimin.

You can't lose the two of them, and you have to raise their grades even more.

He has more power to speak in the court.

From now on, he will recruit his own people, otherwise, when he controls the power by himself in the future, it will cause some unnecessary troubles. Although the world is peaceful now, no one can guarantee whether some people will make trouble in the future.

So he said: "Yes, father, my son will definitely reward the two of you!"

Li Shimin laughed.

Then he asked: "As for the specific system and rules in Tubo, Gao Ming, please tell me."

In this way, the topic will be changed.

Li Chengqian said that Li Shimin is still very shrewd.

Impatient, so I had to change the topic to Tubo.

He still has some people to use, so he opened his mouth.
