Reborn Tang Emperor Li Chengqian

Chapter 16 The Verdict Against Wei Ting
"Your Majesty! The Imperial Guard is here!" Wang Quan led Wang Yuan to Li Chengqian.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs is the emperor's close servant organization, which manages the internal affairs of the court. During the Northern Qi Dynasty, the Ministry of Internal Affairs was established.

In the fourth year of Tang Wude, Emperor Gaozu Li Yuan of the Tang Dynasty changed Changqiu Supervisor to Internal Servant Supervisor, and it was only called Internal Servant Province during the period of Emperor Gaozong Li Zhi.

The internal servant supervisor is the head of the close servant officer of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs has two supervisors, from the third rank.

"Your Highness!" Wang Yuan saluted Li Chengqian.

"Why is the internal servant come to my East Palace when you have time?" Li Chengqian laughed.

Wang Yuan is Li Er's confidant and close servant, and he never leaves even an inch of it on weekdays. Li Er must have sent him to the East Palace. Just think about it casually, and you will know why he came.

"Your Highness! Everyone ordered the old servant to come and invite His Highness to go to Liangyi Hall." Wang Yuan said.

"Oh! Good! Let's go now!" Li Chengqian got up and walked out with Wang Yuan, while Wang Quan went to prepare the chariot first.

Li Chengqian sat on the chariot and was carried by the eunuch towards the Hall of Liangyi in Da Nei.

The walking chariot stopped outside the gate of Liangyi Hall, Li Chengqian stepped off the walking chariot, and entered the Liangyi Hall together with Wang Yuan.

As soon as he walked into the Liangyi Hall, he saw Li Er sitting on the throne, and Li Tai, the fat man beside him, was holding Li Er's hand, acting like a spoiled child.

Li Er had a doting look on his face, and held the little fat man's hand tightly.

Sitting on the left and right sides is Li Chengqian's uncle, Sun Wuji, the eldest son of Situ, and Sikong Fang Xuanling, who is known as Fang Conspirator.

Li Ji, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, Ma Zhou, a doctor of imperial history, Chu Suiliang, a doctor of advice, Yang Shidao, Ling of Zhongshu, and Sun Fujia, Qing of Dali.

Even Li Tai's confidant, Wei Wangfu Chief Shi, Ministry of Industry Shangshu Du Chuke was among them.

"See Father!" Li Chengqian saluted Li Er first, and then saluted all the ministers present.

"I've seen the prince!" All the officials hurriedly stood up and saluted Li Chengqian.

"Gao Ming is here! Give me a seat!" Li Er ordered his servant to bring Li Chengqian a chair.

"Great! This time I called you here because of your assassination case. The principal culprit, Wei Ting, has already been imprisoned. Wei Ting has not pleaded guilty. My brother (what father calls himself to his son in the Tang Dynasty) wants to hear your opinion."

"What do you think should be done in this case?" Li Er said.

Li Chengqian did not answer directly after hearing this. If he really followed Li Chengqian's thinking, it would be natural to go to trial to the end of the case.

It's best to involve Fat Little Four and get Fat Little Four down together. In this way, Li Chengqian can sit back and relax.

However, from Li Er's tone, it was obvious that he planned to end it at Wei Ting's place. After all, Fat Xiaosi was Li Er's sweetheart, and Li Er naturally didn't want this matter to have anything to do with Fat Xiaosi.

Wei Ting was responsible for all the crimes, and had nothing to do with his fat little four.

If Li Chengqian was not forgiving, his image in Li Er's heart would plummet, and the little goodwill he had just established would disappear.

More importantly, if it caused Li Er to think that Li Chengqian might be unfavorable to Li Tai in the future.

It is very likely that in order to preserve Li Tai, he was abolished and Li Zhi was made the prince. Then Li Chengqian would be tragic.

"Father! My son doesn't know much about this case, so don't judge rashly." Li Chengqian kicked the ball back to Li Er again.

Li Er is such a fine person, how could he not understand Li Chengqian's purpose.

"Master of Dali Temple, come and explain this case to the prince." Li Er looked at Sun Fujia and said.

"No!" Sun Fujia got up and came to the middle, first saluted Li Er on the throne, and then saluted Li Chengqian: "Your Highness! After the trial by me and all the princes present, it has been confirmed that the assassination of His Highness was done by Wei Ting. Because, among them..."

After listening to what Sun Fujia said about the case, Li Chengqian can be sure that the mastermind behind sending assassins to assassinate him this time is very likely to be Li Tai, and even if it is not Li Tai, he must have an inseparable relationship with him.

However, judging from Li Er's attitude, he didn't want Li Tai to be involved at all, so what to say next was a crucial matter.

Since there is no way to overthrow Li Tai, why not settle for the next best thing and just help Li Tai, so as to make Li Er happy, and maybe increase his position in Li Er's heart.

"Father! I just heard what Dali Qing said, and I thought that Wei Ting did it alone, and it has nothing to do with Qingque..."

Li Chengqian eloquently said a lot, all of which pointed out that Zheng Wei Ting was the mastermind behind the scenes, and had nothing to do with Li Tai, the fat little four.

In fact, Li Tai, the fat boy, was just a victim, and Wei Ting did everything by himself. Li Chengqian vividly portrayed Li Tai's innocent image.

Since Li Tai can't be brought down, let's kill Wei Ting first.

After Li Chengqian finished speaking, tears filled Li Erzao's eyes. What did he most want to see?
Isn't it just that he hopes that the children born to him and Guanyin's maid can live in harmony, and Li Chengqian and his brothers can be brothers and sisters.

Now that Li Chengqian is so sensible, how can he not make him happy.

Li Tai and Changsun Wuji stood there blankly, they thought that Li Chengqian would take the opportunity to make trouble.

But they didn't expect that Li Chengqian would actually excuse Li Tai. If they hadn't known Li Chengqian already, they might have been persuaded by Li Chengqian.

Everyone had different thoughts, Li Tai didn't believe that Li Chengqian would have such good intentions even if he killed him, and he didn't know what evil intentions were hidden in his stomach.

Changsun Wuji, Chu Suiliang and the others looked at each other, and at Li Chengqian, they knew the truth of retreating instead of advancing.

After a long time, Li Er sneaked a handful of tears, but Changsun Wuji and others pretended not to see it.

"Gao Ming is right! The whole case was committed by Wei Ting alone. As an important minister of the court, Wei Ting did such a rebellious thing."

"If you do such a thing, you should be executed according to the law, even the nine clans. If you think of him, you have devoted yourself to the court for many years, and you can be regarded as an outstanding feat. I can't bear to kill him."

"The Zhongshu Provincial Zhongshu ordered Yang Shidao to draw up an edict to confiscate Wei Ting's family property. Wei Ting and all the men in his family were exiled to Xiangzhou, and the female family members of Wei Ting's family were assigned as slaves." Li Er announced the disposition of Wei Ting on the spot.

Li Er also knew in his heart that Wei Ting did this so that his family's Qing Que'er could win the heir apparent!
Now that Li Chengqian didn't go into the details, in order to keep Li Tai, he had to wrong Wei Ting's family, which could be regarded as an explanation for the crown prince Li Chengqian.

This way of handling also meant beating Li Tai and the people around Li Tai. I hope Li Tai can learn from it and stop any troubles from happening again.

As for the grievances between their brothers, he will naturally find a way to resolve them, and in any case will not repeat the mistakes of the Xuanwu Sect in the past.

"I obey the imperial edict!" Yang Shidao stood up and responded.

On the same day, Wei Ting and the men in his family were exiled to Xiangzhou to be exiled into the army, and the women in the family were fined and sent to Yeting as slaves.
