It was not his beloved minister who caused trouble, and Li Shimin breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing the two provocateurs in the hall who had their heads shrunk, Li Shimin frowned and said in a cold voice.
"Wang Aiqing, Cui Aiqing, what explanation do you have?"
Wang Gui and Cui Yixuan were stunned, their faces as black as the bottom of a pot.
When they saw their son being beaten so badly yesterday, they were so overwhelmed with anger that they forgot to ask the reason for it.
After hearing Li Shimin's ambiguous words, their hearts had already become cold.
How can they explain it?
Whether they took advantage of their power to take their son home privately, or whether his son violated the laws of the Tang Dynasty, it is an ironclad fact.
This cheating son should have beaten them half to death yesterday.
Wang Gui and Cui Yixuan looked at each other and bowed to Li Shimin with sad expressions.
"I await your Majesty's decision."
Li Shimin turned his attention to Wei Zheng.
This guy always likes to get involved with others, but these days he behaves like he's not interested in anything that has anything to do with him.
"Wei Zheng, what do you think should be done about this matter?" Li Shimin wanted to hear what this old venomous tongue thought.
Wei Zheng shook his head without interest.
"Your Majesty, I only give advice on major matters related to the country, and have little interest in such trivial matters." Wei Zheng had no expression on his face.
He is very smart and very active in admonishing His Majesty without getting involved in the disputes of his colleagues.
Li Shimin was not angry at Wei Zheng's rejection.
Then he turned his attention to Xiao Yu, the imperial censor.
"Xiao Yu, how should you, the imperial censor, judge?"
Upon hearing Li Shimin's words, Xiao Yu showed a trace of embarrassment on his face.
Recently he has become closer to Wang Gui, Cui Yixuan and other aristocratic families.
Moreover, his son Xiao Rui also hangs out with Cui Shenji and Wang Jingzhi every day.
Xiao Yu weighed the pros and cons, and then left the class to start the performance without blinking. < /p>
"Sun Fuga, the young minister of Dali Temple, neglected his duties and was fined half a month's salary."
Li Shimin nodded and then faced the ministers.
"Do you have any objections to this verdict?"
After more than ten breaths, no one stood up to express their opinion.
Including king scissors.
What Cui Shenji and Wang Jingzhi committed was not a serious crime according to the current laws of the Tang Dynasty.
By Cheng DepartmentMo and others have been punished for a while.
He was dismissed from his official position and imprisoned in Dali Temple for 5 days. The punishment was in place.
"Okay, since everyone has no objections, the matter is settled." Li Shimin made the decision immediately.
"Your Majesty is wise."
Under the flattery of hundreds of officials, today's court meeting ends here.
Sun Fujia also wiped the sweat from his forehead thankfully.
Fortunately, it did not affect his official position. The penalty of half a month's salary would not have much impact on him. Wang Gui and Cui Yixuan would make up for it by doubling it.
When going to court, Fang Xuanling stopped Wang Jian.
The two of them were riding in a carriage.
"As soon as you arrived in Chang'an, you made enemies everywhere." Fang Xuanling looked at Wang Jian with a headache, and then shook his head, "I don't know whether bringing you to Chang'an is a blessing or a curse."
p>Before Wang Jian came to Chang'an, the court was basically calm.
Except for Wei Zheng who occasionally criticizes His Majesty or ministers who do nothing.
Unexpectedly, just three or four days after Wang Jian arrived, the court was as lively as the Chinese New Year.
Moreover, as soon as Wang Jian arrived, he faced Wang Gui and Cui Yixuan, two troublesome old guys.
Regardless of their official positions or the super aristocratic families behind them, these two people are giants.
Even he would not take the initiative to offend the two of them.
Wang Jian said with a serious face, "Prime Minister, they and I have been enemies for a long time, but now the conflict has only intensified."
Under Fang Xuanling's puzzled eyes, Wang Jian continued. explain.
"Prime Minister, you should know about the attack on Majiazhuang."
This chapter is not finished, click on the next page to continue reading.
"I know." Fang Xuanling nodded.
Gao Shiliannian, the governor of Jiangzhou, specifically told His Majesty about this matter before debriefing his duties at the end of the year.
He, Changsun Wuji, and Du Ruhui were all present at that time.
Wang Jian said calmly, "The mastermind behind this incident is Wang Lishang, the legitimate son of the Wang family in Taiyuan."
Fang Xuanling's face was startled.
Gao Shilian did not tell this information.
"Tell me what happened." Fang Xuanling frowned tightly.
Wang Jian nodded and told the story in detail from beginning to end.
Fang Xuanling nodded while listening.
Except for the difference in the final mastermind, what Wang Jian said was the same as what Gao Shilian reported.
"You don't know what magic power you have, but you have provoked so many people for more than half a year." Fang Xuanling stroked his beard and smiled bitterly.
Wang Jian also looked helpless.
He doesn’t want enemies everywhere, he just wants to be honestMake money, then get promoted, get rich, marry a wife and have children.
But enemies would pop out one after another, just like smelling Tang Monk's meat.
And the origin and background are getting bigger and bigger.
"I know you want revenge, but you must not leave any clues, otherwise His Majesty will not be able to save you."
Fang Xuanling patted Wang Jian on the shoulder and spoke seriously. remind.
Among the many rookies in the court, Wang Jian is the one he is most optimistic about.
I don’t want to destroy this good seedling because of hatred.
"Thank you, Mr. Fang, for your advice. I won't make things difficult for Your Majesty." Wang Jian gratefully handed over his hand.
"Yes." Fang Xuanling stroked his beard and nodded with satisfaction, and then asked with concern, "Can you still adapt to taking office these two days?"
For a person who wears many hats, Being a young newcomer is a big challenge.
Although they are also responsible for many aspects of affairs, the people under them can already take charge of their own affairs.
They just need to arrange the work and see the results when it is due.
"It's quite easy. I'm currently mainly preparing for the breeding of sweet potatoes, and I haven't taken into account other matters yet." Wang Jian said easily.
Fang Xuanling nodded.
"It's good if you can adapt. High-yielding crops like sweet potatoes are a big deal. Do you understand what His Majesty means?"
"Yes, give the credit to the prince to enhance his reputation." Wang Shear nodded slightly.
"You have a good understanding." Fang Xuanling looked at Wang Jian with satisfaction, and then asked tentatively, "Are you aggrieved that the prince has robbed you of the opportunity to leave your name in history?"
"As soon as you enter the East Palace, the prince will be honored and the minister will be honored!" Wang Jian said in a sincere tone.
"Yes, that's the truth!" Fang Xuanling laughed heartily after hearing Wang Jian's answer.
He serves as Li Shimin's most important aide.
It is no exaggeration to say that more than 90% of the major things Li Shimin did were due to his planning.
But there is no word about his specific plan.
Because all the strategies he thought of were issued and executed in the name of Li Shimin.
He hopes Wang Jian can become such a person.
"Wang Jian, I want to accept you as my disciple, what do you think?" Fang Xuanling looked at Wang Jian seriously.
The first two times he saw Wang Jian, he started to love talents. It was only today that he officially accepted Wang Jian as his disciple.
This guy is so good, I will definitely surpass him in the future.
"Boy, yes!" Wang Jian said with joy on his face and agreed without hesitation.
Fang Xuanling had always been a mentor to him, but now there was an additional layer of master-disciple relationship, and the two of them were officially tied to the same ship.
"Teacher, apprentice, I will kowtow to you first."
"When I get back, prepare aThen, choose a good and auspicious day to bring the apprenticeship ceremony and go to the mansion in person to apprentice. "
Wang Jian said that he was going to kowtow to Fang Xuanling.
"You kid, don't play tricks. "Fang Xuanling quickly helped Wang Jian up and patted him on the shoulder, "There is no need to make a big show, frugality should be the priority at the moment. "
"March 22 is a good day. I will hold a banquet at home and invite some colleagues to eat and witness. Then you can just hand me the apprenticeship tea. "
After years of disasters, Queen Changsun is now taking the lead in frugality.
As Shangshu Zuopushe, Fang Xuanling should set an example.
"Disciple everything They all listen to their mentor. "Wang Jian bowed his hands towards Fang Xuanling.
