Reborn Tang Emperor Li Chengqian

Chapter 516 Stalking
"Your Majesty! I don't know what crime Duke Qing committed to make His Majesty so angry?" Di Renjie asked.

He had never seen Li Chengqian in this court, so furious.

"Someone sued Duke Qing for forcibly annexing the land, even burning, killing, looting and committing all kinds of crimes, and even conniving at his subordinates to commit crimes."

"He even made friends with people from all walks of life. What exactly does he want to do? Just relying on these is enough to kill his nine clans." Li Chengqian said.

"Your Majesty! I don't know if there is any evidence to prove whether everything said on the pleadings is true or not. Duke Qing is a honest man, and he absolutely cannot do such a thing of killing people and extorting goods, let alone conniving at his subordinates to commit murder. Please tell your Majesty." Check." A minister came out to salute.

Li Chengqian felt that what the minister said was reasonable, and he could not arbitrarily judge a person's crime based on a piece of paper.

In that case, I don't know how many unjust, false and wrong cases will be brought up.

"Li Aiqing, you submitted this pleading paper, but is there any evidence to prove that everything said on it is true?" Li Chengqian looked at Li Jingxuan and asked.

"This minister doesn't know. The person here is only here to sue Duke Qing. Apart from the pleadings, there is nothing else that can be used as evidence." Li Jingxuan said.

"Your Majesty! Since there is no evidence to prove it, the case of Duke Qing still needs to be investigated, and Duke Qing's crime cannot be concluded from this." Di Renjie said.

"Di Aiqing is right. Who should be in charge of the trial? Which Aiqing can go to Binzhou to thoroughly investigate this matter?" Li Chengqian said.

Li Jingxuan and the others didn't say anything, they secretly observed Li Xiang's movements, to see if Li Xiang would stand up and show something.

But what disappointed them was that Li Xiang was still indifferent, as if he hadn't heard anything, which was totally different from what they expected.

While they were keeping an eye on Li Xiang, Liu Rengui and the others were also keeping an eye on Li Jingxuan and the others. Once they made any moves, they would stand up immediately.

"Your Majesty! This matter should be handed over to the presiding judge of Dali Temple." Di Renjie said.

He didn't care about any tricks in it, he just wanted to investigate the matter thoroughly, clear up the government of the Tang Dynasty, and clear up the black sheep.

"Your Majesty! Duke Qing is the Duke of the Tang Dynasty after all. It would be inappropriate to only hand it over to Dali Temple for trial. I think a prince should be appointed to preside over the matter." Under Li Jingxuan's instruction, a minister stood came out and said.

As long as Li Chengqian agrees, he will push Li Xiang out and suggest that Li Chengqian let Li Xiang go to Binzhou.

"Your Majesty! All major cases in the world are tried by Dali Temple and the Ministry of Criminal Justice. There has never been a case for the prince to try the case. If Dali Temple cannot handle it alone, it can be handed over to the three divisions for joint trial." The ministers of Liu Rengui stood up and said.

Seeing this, Li Jingxuan was so angry that his teeth itched. At this time, Liu Rengui, an old man, dared to stand up and make trouble with him. If he hadn't been in court and had to pay attention to his manners, he would have yelled at him long ago.

Naturally not to be outdone, Li Jingxuan's group launched counterattacks one after another, and the two sides started a fierce verbal war again.

"Presumptuous!" Li Chengqian was furious. These guys were noisy, regardless of time and place, and they would argue endlessly whenever they had the opportunity.

The emperor was furious, and no one dared to say another word.

"The matter will be handed over to Di Renjie to preside over the case, and Di Renjie will be ordered to rush to Binzhou to try the case and retire!" Li Chengqian said.

"Your Majesty will be sent off respectfully!" The ministers hastily saluted and sent Li Chengqian away.

When Li Chengqian left the hall, these people got up and left.

After Li Xiang left the Xuanzheng Hall, he went straight back to his residence without staying for a moment.

East Palace.

"Judging from Li Xiang's performance in the morning court today, he shouldn't pose any threat to us. It seems that we made a false alarm!" Li Jue laughed.

"Your Highness! It's too early to say so. We still need to be more cautious. As long as Li Xiang stays in Chang'an for a day, anything can happen. We shouldn't take it lightly now." Li Jingxuan said, he didn't Li Jue is so optimistic.

"Is Mr. Li worrying too much? Judging from Li Xiang's performance in the early court, there is nothing to worry about. The court envoy will naturally return to his place after the court gathering in Chang'an."

"As long as the time comes to return to his fief, isn't it all right? Why is Mr. Li so worrying?" Zhao Daosheng laughed.

They felt that Li Jingxuan was too careful, and there was no need for it at all. Judging from Li Xiang's performance, he would not threaten the status of the crown prince at all.

As far as Li Xiang's performance is concerned, he may not be able to compete with the prince, nor can he compete with the prince. Li Xiang has no foundation in Chang'an.

"In short, there is nothing wrong with being careful, don't wait until it causes a catastrophe, and it will be too late to regret it!" Li Jingxuan said.

"Then what do you think we should do now?" Li Jue asked.

"Send someone to keep an eye on Li Xiang. His every move, what does he do every day? It must be recorded in detail."

"Especially keep an eye on whether he has any contact with Liu Rengui's group. If they get together, it will be bad for us." Li Jingxuan said.

A Li Xiang has nothing to be afraid of. After all, Li Xiang has no fundamental power in Chang'an, so there is nothing to worry about.

What Li Jingxuan was worried about was whether Liu Rengui and the others would unite with Li Xiang, which would be the biggest disadvantage to them.

"Everything has to be recorded in every detail. Is it possible that King Wei has to record what he eats, drinks, and even pays tribute every day? Is this necessary?" Prince Dian Shancheng Gao Zheng asked.

He felt that Li Jingxuan was too careful, there was no need for it.

"Of course it is necessary. If there is even the slightest mistake, it may be a disaster for us." Li Jingxuan said.

"Okay, just do what the Grand Tutor said, Zhao Daosheng, I will leave the matter of monitoring people to you, don't let the widow down." Li Jue said.

"Don't worry, Your Highness, I will definitely handle this matter properly, and there will never be any omissions. I will personally select the candidates to monitor King Wei." Zhao Daosheng said.

"I'm afraid it's not appropriate for Your Highness to entrust this matter to this person. I suggest that it is better to change someone." Li Jingxuan said.

It's not a child's play to entrust such an important matter to a male favorite!

"There's nothing wrong with it. Zhao Daosheng is my confidant. Don't worry about his work. You don't have to worry!" Li Jue said.

"Yes! Don't worry, Mr. Li, I will not disappoint His Highness." Zhao Daosheng said.

"But Your Highness..." Li Jingxuan said hastily.

"Okay, that's the decision! I'm exhausted, you all stand down." Before Li Jingxuan finished speaking, he was interrupted by Li Jue, who even issued an order to expel the guests.

Li Jingxuan and the others had no choice but to salute and retreat. After Li Jingxuan returned, he arranged for another person to watch over Li Xiang, Liu Rengui and the others. He was worried about the people Li Jue sent.
