Arriving outside the palace gate, according to the rules, Li Jun and others were required to leave their weapons behind before entering. This was the custom and everyone followed it without hesitation.
/p>
Emperor Yan Ping did not personally come to greet the army when they returned in triumph, which was understandable due to their normal relationship between father and son. However, Li Jun was able to resolve the country's crisis and defeat the enemy. This was a great victory that had not been achieved by the previous dynasty in a hundred years. Emperor Yan Ping actually followed the general etiquette and allowed everyone to enter the palace to see him. Understood, I'm afraid this is not just a simple suppression, maybe I really want to beat him to death with a stick.
"I'm afraid today's matter will not be simple. Don't be impulsive when you go to the palace later. Let's check the direction of the wind." Li Jun told Yang Zhuming.
The revenge for killing my father must be avenged. Li Jun knew what he was like, but he didn't persuade him to give up. But at the same time, Li Yan understood that Emperor Yan Ping had regarded those three people as pawns in his game, and it was impossible to convince Emperor Yan Ping to kill those three people by normal means. Everyone in the palace was surrounded by soldiers, and Emperor Yan Ping seemed determined to make things difficult for him.
Yang Zhuming seemed to be nodded, but it seemed that he didn't take it seriously. Emperor Yan Ping's thoughts were known to everyone on the road. Today he came with military power. If he couldn't kill those three people, how could Emperor Yan Ping take him seriously again once he handed over his military power.
After arriving at the palace, after everyone had finished saluting, Emperor Yan Ping gave a faint cry.
"You are all pillars of the country and loyal ministers. This time we failed in the attack and won a complete victory. I shall reward you based on your merits."
Prime Minister Lu Wen'an said : "If you have merit, you should be rewarded, and if you make mistakes, you will be punished. Only when rewards and punishments are clear can you convince the public."
Immediately afterwards, Liu Fei, a member of the Ministry of official affairs, stood up and said: "Your Majesty, we have found out that Zhenxi General Le Weisheng was the one who succeeded in treason against the former imperial guard commander. According to the law, he should be punished by the Holy Spirit."
"Oh, where is Le Weisheng? "
Le Weisheng glanced at Li Han at a loss, knelt on the ground obediently, and said, "I am here."
"Where are the Imperial Guards?"
p>After hearing the edict, the imperial guards stepped forward and waited for Emperor Yan Ping's order.
"First put this person on death row and let him die."
"Yes."

Seeing that the imperial guards were really about to take the person away, Li Jun said: "Wait a minute."
From the singing and singing of these people, Li Jun had already guessed that this was They had discussed the strategy in advance, and the purpose was still to frighten the three armies and the world. But what he didn't expect was that the general he picked up at random turned out to be the queen of success.
Cheng Chenggong was the commander of the Imperial Guard promoted by Emperor Taizong in his later years. He was an upright, loyal and brave man., quite respected by Taizong. Before Emperor Taizong's departure, he summoned the King of Qin's lineage, imperial censor Zeng Liangzuo, and Taiwei Yang Zhentian to meet him alone. What was said specifically is unknown. This made Emperor Yan Ping suspicious. Coincidentally, Emperor Taizong once pointed out a marriage for Emperor Yan Ping, and wanted to make Jiang the crown princess. However, the Jiang family was only from a family of military generals. Emperor Yan Ping looked down upon Jiang's family background. However, before he could tell Taizong to refuse, the fierce Jiang took the lead in rejecting Taizong's good intentions and married Le Cheng instead. I got Leweisheng. Originally, the matter was considered to have ended here, but now that Emperor Yan Ping came to power, he couldn't let go of the past when he thought about it. They actually joined forces with Prime Minister Lu Wen'an to make false accusations and massacred the whole family. Le Weisheng, the youngest son of Success, was hidden by his mother in a dry well. The officials responsible for the inspection did not find him and reported his life to Emperor Yan Ping. Although Emperor Yan Ping didn't ask for the information he wanted to know, he successfully got rid of the thorn in his side and stopped asking anyone to search for Le Weisheng's whereabouts. It was settled.
"Prince Jin, are you going to disobey the imperial edict?" Liu Fei sneered.
Li Gong raised his eyebrows and asked, "Who are you?"
"Liu Fei, a member of the Ministry of Civil Affairs and a member of the Ministry of Criminal Affairs, is temporarily acting as the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice."
"Yuanwailang? A fifth-rank official, a third-rank official from the Ministry of Punishment. You, a fifth-rank official, temporarily take over the position of a third-rank official, or you are from the Ministry of Personnel. Is there no one in the Ministry of Punishment?"
This The words instantly lit the fuse in the court.
This Liu Fei was just a fifth-grade Yuanwai Lang and had no qualifications to go to the palace. However, this man somehow managed to climb up to Emperor Yan Ping and was granted the unusual position of Minister of Punishment. But the ministers in the court disagreed. Liu Fei did not come from a famous family, and he did not make great contributions to the country. He was appointed to an official position at will just because he wanted to please the emperor. Naturally, these officials did not agree. But Emperor Yan Ping insisted on this, and finally the ministers had to compromise and let him temporarily take the position of Minister of Justice. However, Liu Fei has only proposed two things in the palace so far, one is to cut off Li Jun's food and grass; the other is to kill Lewei. At this point, everyone has completely understood why Liu Fei was favored by the emperor. He was just a knife in the hands of Emperor Yan Ping.
At this time, Zeng Liangzuo, the imperial censor, had been seriously ill and bedridden for several months. After several rounds of cleaning in the court, people from all departments clamped their tails tightly and did not dare to be as presumptuous as before.
Pei Lun, the Minister of Punishment, stood up with a bad expression and said: "I have never seen the case file, and I don't know where Lord Liu learned about it."
"Haha, this is This is interesting. The case has not yet passed the Ministry of Justice, but the words of this acting minister alone will determine the life and death of an army general. I wonder if I heard it wrong, or does Mr. Liu really think that men in the army are easy to bully?"
"The King of Jin is afraid that he has been deceived by this person. I have detailed files here for the King of Jin to check."
Li Jun took the file handed over by Liu Fei and looked at it all. Without looking, he threw it directly into the brazier. Emperor Yan Ping was startled and said angrily: "Li Han, what are you doing?"
LiJun saluted and said: "Father, I brought the soldiers on the front line here to let my father see with his own eyes what these soldiers who fought bloody battles on the front line and defended their families and country looked like." Let the soldiers come to the court to see who the king they are risking their lives to protect is. The soldiers are naive and loyal to their father. They don't understand the tactics and have never experienced the bloodshed in the court. The father says. They will only go forward bravely, even if they lose their lives. If you want to kill Wei Sheng, he will not even say a word to defend himself. Loyal ministers can be killed, and brave generals can be killed, but the father's heart cannot be deceived. It is in the heart of Han Tianxia's soldiers that you are not going to kill him alone. What you want to kill is the bravery and loyalty of the soldiers in the world. From now on, who is still willing to fight to the death with the enemy? Who is still willing to defend the world of my Li family? ? ”
