Reborn Tang Emperor Li Chengqian

Chapter 161

"It's not that I don't want to deal with it, it's just that I can't bear it! Hou Junji has committed suicide and apologized! Why do you want to embarrass his family?"

"Although he was guilty, he realized his mistake before he started to act. He felt ashamed to face me, so he committed suicide in fear of crime."

"He already has a heart of awakening, why can't he give a deceased who has made great achievements in the Tang Dynasty a chance to come back." Li Er said.

Even if Hou Junji really had the heart to repent, he could only go to the Nine Springs to repent.

"Then what do you mean, Your Majesty? Let Hou Junji's family stay in Chang'an? Has Your Majesty ever thought about whether it would be appropriate for them to stay in Chang'an since they are family members of sinners?" Changsun Wuji said.

From Changsun Wuji's point of view, Li Er is indeed old, he is no longer as fierce and courageous as he was back then, and he always looks forward and backward a lot of the time.

"Exile them all to Lingnan and never allow them to return to Chang'an. No matter what, it can be regarded as leaving some incense for Hou Junji."

As Li Er spoke, his eyes began to get wet, and then the tears couldn't stop flowing down.

Changsun Wuji sighed helplessly. If he followed his will, he should cut the grass and root out the roots. No one can guarantee that Hou Junji's descendants will have a day of rebellion.

But Li Er has already talked about this!He had no other choice but to obey, his eldest grandson Wuji had already done what a courtier should do.

However, the emperor refused to listen, and he had no choice but to let him be the emperor. This Tang Dynasty is the dynasty of the Li family.

"The minister is going to draft an imperial edict for you!" Changsun Wuji said.

Since coming to Goguryeo, his eldest grandson Wuji drafted every imperial edict for Li Er, and then showed it to Li Er for review, before issuing it.

"No need! I personally drafted the edict and sent it back to Chang'an directly." Li Er didn't go through Changsun Wuji's hand this time, and this time he planned to do it himself, and he didn't intend to let Changsun Wuji read it.

"Resignation!" Changsun Wuji stood up and saluted, then took two steps back, turned around and left the big tent.

Li Er wrote an imperial edict on the disposal of Hou Junji's family, ordering Li Chengqian to send Hou Junji's wives, concubines and children to Lingnan.

After writing the imperial edict, Li Er wrote another letter to his family asking about the recent situation of Li Zhi and his brothers, as well as his own worries about Li Zhi!
Li Er received a personal letter from Li Zhi last night, and he planned to reply immediately to his son in Chang'an, but something happened to delay him at that time.

I had no choice but to send it back to Chang'an after finishing writing.

After writing it, Li Er didn't show it to anyone. He directly put wax on it to seal it, and ordered people to send it back to Chang'an immediately.

The post station Pegasus rode fast, traveled all the way across the state and across the government, and arrived in Chang'an within a few days, and delivered Li Er's edict and family letter to Li Chengqian.

"Lang Jun! Your Majesty's edict and family letter have arrived!" Wang Quan bowed and reported to Li Chengqian.

"Oh! I don't know how the father will deal with Hou Junji's family members? Let me have a look." Li Chengqian stretched out his hand and said.

Historically, Hou Junji was beheaded because of Li Chengqian's rebellion. Hou Junji begged Li Erkan to pardon his wife and children because of his great military exploits for the Tang Dynasty.

Someone collected his body and kept the funeral for him. In fact, he begged Li Er to leave some incense for his Hou family, so as not to cut off the queen.

Li Er finally agreed to Hou Junji's request and exiled his wife and children to Lingnan.

But now, Hou Junji was forced to death by the crown prince, and the crime was still treason, and he had changed from an accomplice to a mastermind.

Everything has changed from what it was in history. Li Chengqian really doesn't know how Li Er will deal with these family members of Hou Junji.

Wang Quan immediately handed over the bamboo tube containing the edict and a letter from home to Li Chengqian.

After Li Chengqian got it, he put the family letter aside, first uncovered the wax seal, and poured out Li Er's edict from it to read.

Li Chengqian quickly read Li Er's edict, he did not expect that Li Er's edict still moved Hou Junji's family to Lingnan.

It's just that it didn't say where it was moved to Lingnan?
Is this going to test me?Li Chengqian thought in his heart, after thinking for a moment, Li Chengqian had an idea, picked up a pen and wrote down a place on a piece of paper.

Where is the best place in Lingnan, since he promised to treat Hou Junji's family kindly, he must do it, he can't even deceive a dead person.

It would be too unkind to do so, and he, Li Chengqian, would not break his promise to this extent.

"Give this article and the edict to Fang Xiang and Zhong Shuling." Li Chengqian put down the brush in his hand, and handed the note and edict just written to Wang Quandao.

"Promise!" Wang Quan took the order, stepped forward to take the edict and note from Li Chengqian's hand, and retreated.

After finishing these, Li Chengqian reached out to pick up the family letter that was put aside and opened it to read.

There were two family letters inside, one for him and one for Li Zhi.

Li Chengqian first read the letter from his family.

Li Er said some words of concern to him in his home letter, and also talked about the recent situation in Liaodong. When he was done, he didn't forget to tell him to put his energy on government affairs.

Li Chengqian put down the family letter, and opened Li Zhi's one to read. In addition to the private letter to Li Zhi, there was also a battle report about Liaodong.

Li Er's letter to Li Chengqian's family only casually mentioned a few words about the battle situation in Goguryeo, but this battle report clearly recorded the battle victory.

Li Chengqian knew in his heart that Li Er's conquest of Goguryeo this time was just a small victory, and it would not take long for Li Er to know that Goguryeo was a difficult nut to crack.

It is tasteless, tasteless to eat, and a pity to discard!

The family letter wrote: "Twice I got the big internal letter, but I didn't see the slave watch. Yeye was afraid of dying forever. When I was young, I suddenly got the slave's handwriting to report my wife's troubles. The anxiety was relieved for a while, and I wanted to be reborn as if dead. Today is the end of the day." , But the head is hot, the letter will be reported immediately. If Yeye has few diseases, it will be reported one by one. Now I got the news from Liaodong, recorded it and sent it. I recalled that the slave was about to die. I don’t know how to return it. "

Li Chengqian did not expect that this was actually a famous post written by Li Er to Li Zhi twice.

The lines in his heart fully express Li Er's deep affection for licking the calf, showing the most delicate side of a generation of great emperors as fathers.

Compared to Li Chengqian's strictness and earnest teaching!
Li Er dotes on Li Zhi a little more, perhaps because Li Zhi was brought up by Li Er himself since he was a child.

After Li Chengqian visited the post twice, he read the Liaodong battle report again. It directly stated how the Tang army won the battle, and did not mention the casualties of the two armies, which had been damaged in battle, etc.

"Give this letter to the King of Jin!" Li Chengqian stuffed the battle report into a book at home, sealed it and handed it to the servant beside him.

"Promise!" The servant stepped forward to take the letter, bowed and retreated, and went to Youchunfang after leaving the hall. At this time, Li Zhi should be working in Youchunfang.
