Chapter 350 Sword of the Son of Heaven

Taiji Palace Wude Hall, the main hall.

The civil and military officials lined up and filed in. Everyone looked at their nose and nose and did not squint, and the atmosphere at the scene was depressing and depressing.

Everyone knows that today's meeting is a historical watershed of the Tang Dynasty, and it will be a watershed for many people's lives and lives. At present, there is no sword and halberd, but the cold gun and hidden arrows have been buried everywhere.

Prince Li Chengqian and King Li Tai, walking in front of the two rows of courtiers, glanced at each other with very tacit understanding, and quickly separated.

Whoever is successful, who is defeated; whoever is king and who is a bandit, is only today.

In contrast, Li Tai, who is not forced into a desperate situation, seems to be more relaxed and comfortable. Today, even if the emperor announced that it was not him who supervised the country, it would not mean that he was completely doomed. Because according to the name, it is not his turn to supervise the national director. That is to say, his starting point is low and he can afford to lose. In this battle, no matter whether he wins or loses, Li Tai is doomed not to suffer any big losses. However, Li Tai is 60% sure that he should be the winner today. Li Yuanchang's bad behavior is exposed, and it is inevitable to involve the prince. It is reasonable that his prince is already a mud bodhisattva crossing the river at this time, not to mention the director of the superintendent.

The emperor is sick, and the prince is going to fall. Looking all over the world, who else can be competent in this position of superintendent besides the king of Wei?

Li Tai, Zhizhu is looking forward to it.

And Li Chengqian is different. If he hadn't hosted today's court, it would have meant that he, the prince, would have come to the head. He has reached a desperate situation and can't afford to lose at all. At this moment, he still has a last glimmer of fantasy in his heart. He does not believe that his father will abolish his position as prince at such a special time and in such an irresponsible form.

Even for the face of the late mother's eldest grandson, today's father has fallen ill, and he should always give him the eldest son the last chance to show himself and save his fate.

Li Chengqian didn't expect that in addition to blood inheritance and family affection, what else could he rely on?

Every time he stepped on the stone steps of the Dragon Tail Road of Wude Hall, Li Chengqian's heart hit hard, and his breathing became tense and rapid. He felt as if everyone was staring at him, and his eyes were like sharp arrows that could pierce him.

Li Chengqian, cold sweating, like a light on his back.

Zhong Wenwu silently walked into the main hall of Wude Hall. In the past, I don't know how many times these people have attended the morning meetings, and they have never been as worried as they are today. In the past, after they entered the court and stood left and right, the eunuchs dragged their voices and called the emperor to come, and then the emperor Li Shimin, who was in his prime, walked into the Jinluan Hall and sat on the golden dragon chair, sounding like a bell.

Today, Zhong Wenwu bowed his head and stood for a long time. Not to mention the emperor, even the eunuch did not appear.

Many people began to look left and right. At the same time, some people found that in addition to Chu Suiliang, the Chinese book waiter who had always accompanied the emperor, did not appear, there was also a big man who was supposed to appear and should have appeared.

Uncle Zhao Guogong, Situ, Shangshu left servant shot, and Changsun Wuji.

As the most trusted and trusted minister of the emperor and the most grand prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, why didn't he attend?

In everyone's minds, the suspicion is even greater.

After a long time, the Wude Hall was still silent. Occasionally, one or two coughs that can't be tolerated can also be heard to be suppressed. Some people find it a little difficult to breathe because of nervousness and depression.

Suddenly, he said, "His Royal Highness the King of Jin has arrived, the left servant shot the chief Sun Situ, and the servant Chu Suiliang has arrived!"

Everyone sounded like a dream, shivering neatly, and looked at Longting Jinluan in surprise.

Changsun Wuji E Guanbo held his head high and his beard fluttered. He led Li Zhi, a half-sized son in a purple deer dragon robe, followed by Chu Suiliang, who was holding the jade seal, and walked to the dragon chair step by step.

"Ah!!!"

Everyone couldn't help but be surprised and made a neat exclamation.

Li Zhi, who was young and raised in the deep palace all year round and had never seen anything in the world, was stunned by this exclamation and stopped. Changsun Wuji looked back and frowned deeply and dragged with a little dark force on his hands. Li Zhi almost stabbed and walked to the dragon chair in a hurry, with his buttocks facing the chair seat.

The whole audience opened their eyes neatly and uniformly, and held the three people in the Jinluan Hall straight. Li Chengqian was even more exaggerated, and his body trembled and his lips were a little blue. He couldn't help muttering, "Auncle, ninth brother... Why, why is it like this?"

Li Tai also looked at the stage in consternation, and his inner shock and indignation were almost difficult to suppress. However, when he saw the prince's gaffe and panic, he immediately changed his face and hurriedly stood with his hands down, just like his father standing on the Jinluan Hall today, which was no different from the past.

"Your Majesty's Oracle." Chu Suiliang's voice sounded almost emotionless, and the people who would be petrochemical at the scene woke up from amazing. He said, "Ming, Changsun Wuji assists the prince Jin Wangzhi and supervises the director of the country."

Li Chengqian's body shook and almost fell down.

The young Li Zhi was scared when he saw the expression of the nearest prince brother. He hurriedly ran down to Li Chengqian and grabbed his sleeve: "Brother Prince, it's up to you to supervise the director of the country!" The ninth brother is still young and doesn't know anything about state affairs.

"Wow..." There was an exclamation in the court.

"In the position of superintendent, Li Zhi actually gave him to his eldest brother as a childhood toy!" Many people can't help but be shocked!

"No, no, I don't want it. Your father ordered you to supervise the country, and you will supervise the country. Li Chengqian almost collapsed, and even his brain seemed to have lost the ability to think, he said dullly. He didn't feel anything after saying anything.

"Your Highness, please come back." Changsun Wuji, who had not said anything after entering the hall, spoke.

Li Zhi was stunned. He looked back at Changsun Wuji and Chu Suiliang, and looked up at the prince who was pale and trembling. He pulled Li Chengqian's sleeves tightly in his hand and refused to let go.

Li Chengqian's temples are already overflowing with cold sweat. He lowered his head and looked at his ninth brother Li Zhi, who was half short of his head. He gritted his teeth and grabbed his hand cruelly, and threw it hard: "I want you to go back! As the prince of the superintendent, how can he lighten Jinluan and become a style?

"Big brother..." Li Zhi was thrown back a few steps by Li Chengqian. He stood on the spot, and his eyes were wet.

This "big brother" is quite sad. The Chinese martial arts officials couldn't help trembling and sighed several times.

"Big brother, I don't want to supervise the country, little brother..."

"Shut up! Don't say it!" Li Chengqian suddenly shouted, "Go back, I'll tell you to go back!"

Li Zhi's tears gushed out of his eyes. He bit his lips, nodded, and walked back to the dragon chair of Jinluan Hall. Then, he was almost pressed by Changsun Wuji, and his rather thin body sat on the cold dragon chair that was not in proportion to his figure.

After sitting on the dragon chair, Li Zhi pressed his hands on the armrest of the faucet and kept looking at his eldest brother and his fourth brother, King Wei, with a blank, fearful and sad expression. Looking at that situation, instead of having the majesty and honor of the director of the country, it is very sad.

From beginning to end, Li Tai was like an outsider, with low eyebrows and a solemn look. From his face, he could not see any emotional fluctuations, just like the Bodhisattva in the temple.

"Recent, there have been many things going on in the middle of China. Your Majesty fell ill, and Prime Minister Fang Xuanling fell ill, and he couldn't be a director. Changsun Wuji's voice seemed plain, and he was not in a hurry to talk, which could suppress the tone and speed of the scene. He said, "Changsun Wuji was ordered by the emperor to assist His Royal Highness the King of Jin to supervise the country. But there are big and small things, His Royal Highness the King of Jin can order on behalf of the emperor. Things in the middle of the dynasty should not be wasted for a day. Next, I would like to invite His Royal Highness the King of Jin to announce two important things.

As soon as the voice fell, a neat "brushing sound" was actually made by the collar rubbing the neck - everyone looked at Li Zhi, the young prince who had just appeared in pink ink, Li Zhi, the king of Jin.

Li Zhi was obviously a little nervous. He took a fold handed over by Chu Suiliang and said in a trembling voice, "Recently, there have been several important memorials, which can't be approved because of my father's illness. Now, the order of the emperor is as follows!"

"The first is the case of the father-in-law Qin Mubai, who broke into the court and messed up the harem. It was found that Qin Mubai was framed. Today, there is an important witness, Fang Yuzhi, who sued his brother Fang Yuai for framing Qin Mubai because of his private hatred. After investigation, the evidence is true. Therefore, I declared Qin Mubai's innocence in public at the court meeting, the official was reinstated, and the wedding with Princess Gaoyang chose another day..."

"Slow!!" Suddenly, he shouted fiercely and interrupted the "reading" of Li Zhi's machinery. Li Zhi was shocked, and the fold in his hand almost fell to the ground.

Everyone looked sideways in surprise, and it was the prince who made this rebuke.

Li Chengqian seemed to carry a thousand catties of boulder on his back. He slowly moved out of the court class and walked to the middle. He arched his hand at the top of his head and said in a low voice, "Junior, I want to ask, the case of Qin Mubai, from the beginning of the case of the crime to now, has never been made public, and has never been filed by Yushitai, Zongzheng Temple or Dali Temple. How can torture be called 'the evidence is true'? Such human life is at the heart of heaven, and it is more about the honor and disgrace and dignity of the former emperor and our royal family. Ninth brother, have you so hastily decided the case and forgive him not guilty? Is it because Qin Mubai is your teacher that you use power for selfishness to make a crime? How can you convince the public if you are so gloomy, not incompatible with the ancestral system, and not in line with the law?

Everyone is in an uproar.

Li Zhi stared at Prince Li Chengqian with wide eyes and muttered, "Brother Prince, why do you suffer so? Qin Mubai has never offended you at all. He was obviously framed by the stolen goods.

"You shut up!" Li Chengqian scolded angrily, "How can you make the decision in the court? Where will the national law be put in this way? Ninth brother, since you are already in charge of the country, don't be emotional!"

"Big Brother..."

Li Zhi wanted to go on and was interrupted by Changsun Wuji raising his hand. Changsun Wuji stood beside Li Zhi, arched his hand to Li Chengqian, and said calmly, "Your Highness's doubts should also be. However, Qin Mubai's case is too much **, which is related to the royal family affairs and the dignity of the former emperor, so it was not heard in public. His Royal Highness is so openly shouting and provoking in the court. Isn't it to publicize the family's ugliness? What's his intention?

"Changsun Situ, since you have compiled the law, you should know that the law is strict and the law is not acceptable. Now that the case has been issued, it should be tried impartially. Nowadays, everyone knows that the harem crime has been committed, but without a fair trial and investigation, it hastily declared the denial of the crime. How can it convince the public? So, what else do I want the law to do in the Tang Dynasty? The ninth brother supervised the country and issued such a confused amnesty as soon as he came up. How can he talk about things impartially in the future? After Li Chengqian said that, he glanced behind him and shouted, "In this case, the chancellor of the cabinet needs to be strictly reviewed by the prime minister of the cabinet in conjunction with Zongzheng Temple, Yushitai and Dali Temple. Otherwise, the public will not accept it!"

This is like a piece of paper, which opens the curtain of cigarette sales.

At present, many princes and courtiers who supported the prince stood up together and joined the prince's court.

Looking at a group of people in the court who stood up and vowed not to retreat, Li Zhi was silent. At this moment, he is not afraid. He just looked at his eldest brother with a little sadness and couldn't help sighing leisurely that was not in line with his age.

"Brother Prince, you know better than anyone how the case is. In this situation, no one is forcing you, why do you have to find your own way to die?"

Li Zhi, who is young, is not amazing, and he will die!

Li Chengqian suddenly looked up in scorn and looked at the golden throne above his head.

Li Zhi, full of sadness and disappointment, and a desperate look; Chu Suiliang, even when the emperor roared at him, he could be expressionless, and at this moment he was still as silent as water; Changsun Wuji, his eyes narrowed slightly, his eyes were like a knife like fire, and he mourned his misfortune and anger.

"Prince! If you insist on it, today, you will call the several people involved in this case to the court and confront them, which will convince you! It's just that to publicize the ugliness of the royal insiders in this way, you are also the children and grandchildren of the Li family. How can I see how you feel!" Changsun Wuji broke out, raised his hand and pointed to the prince Li Chengqian angrily, and then shouted, "Come on, Xuanfang Yuzhi, Su Lianqing, and Shantai sisters!"

"Xuan - Fang Yuzhi, Su Lianqing, and Taitai sisters!" The eunuch of Sili announced loudly and spread it from the inside and outside of the hall.

Hearing the names of Su Lianqing and the Taitai sisters, Li Chengqian was desperate.

The final struggle and effort can basically be said to be a waste. Not only was he abrant, but he also pushed himself against the royal family of the Li family. Now, I'm afraid that even if the emperor comes out, he will not be spared as a fool who is determined to make a fool out his family.

"Where is Li Yuanchang, the king of Han?" Changsun Wuji asked in the morning.

An official named Si Bo came out and said that the King of Han could not go out of the court when he was sick.

Changsun Wuji sneered and said, "It's obviously a thief who is guilty and absconded in fear of crime!" Your Highness, until now, I advise you not to be dragged down by human disasters, otherwise, no one can save you!"

As he spoke, Fang Yuzhi, Su Lianqing and the Tai sisters had already walked to the door of the main hall of Wude Hall.

Li Chengqian was almost in a cold sweat. He turned around and looked at these people. Suddenly, he shouted hysterically, "Don't force me! Don't force me!!!"

Everyone was shocked - Prince, what does this mean?

Changsun Wuji's eyes narrowed and his eyes were exposed. He shouted, "Li Chengqian, what do you want to do!"

"Don't force me, don't force me!!" Li Chengqian gasped in a cold sweat, and his steps were scattered and moved in panic.

"No one is forcing you. Everything is up to you. Suddenly, a sound like a bell sounded on the side of the gate of the court.

Everyone turned their heads in surprise and looked at the king of Jiangxia, Li Daozong!

Li Daozong cut his hands behind his back and walked into the court under the gaze of everyone. A pair of eyes, like a tiger-eyed torch, stared at Li Chengqian until he almost squatted down.

"Prince, from beginning to end, everyone is giving you a chance, always retaining you and helping you." Li Daozong's cut hands slowly came to him, and Li Chengqian was stunned.

"This... This is my father's, the emperor's sword, how to do it in your hands!" Li Chengqian screamed, "How dare you kill me? Do you dare to kill me? I'm the prince! Do you dare to kill the orphan?!"

"No one dares to kill you, and no one wants to kill you. Chengqian, you put yourself in a prison of imagination, lies, stupidity and depravity, and no one can save you. After saying that, Li Daozong suddenly raised his sword and shouted, "The sword of the emperor is here, just like me bowing!"

"Hangtow, long live my emperor, long live!" All the people in the dynasty knelt down, except for Li Chengqian, who was about to collapse.

"His Royal Highness the King of Jin, the eldest grandson Situ. Today's second amnesty for the government, please hand it over to me to read!" Li Daozong said.

"There is an uncle." Li Zhi took the folded book and raised his head respectfully. Li Daozong was not polite. He walked to the Jinluan Longting with a sword in his hand and said in a loud voice: "The second amnesty of the prince of the country, give the emperor's sword and Qin Mubai, and point out all the imperial troops of Baiqi, Jinwuwei, Qianniuwei, and prison guard, defend the imperial city, and eliminate evil spirits!"

......

At this moment, Qin Mubai, under the escort of a team of hundred riders, walked into the Xuanwu Gate of Taiji Palace, passed the Chengxiang Hall, Yanjia Hall and Ganlu Hall in turn. After passing the Rihua Gate, he could see the tall and towering Wude Hall at a glance.

Around the Wude Hall, the armor is shining. A short distance of hundreds of steps from Rihua Gate to Wude Hall, with no less than 3,000 armor, three steps, one post, five steps and one pavilion, solemn and solemn.

It rains heavily, the sky and the earth are gloomy, the wind blows the flags for hunting, and the underground water is not shallow. Qin Mubai and this team of hundred riders walked along the road, and there was no dry place all over his body.

"Third brother, it's almost here. For my brother, I'm going to offend you." Qin Tong stopped his feet, looked at Qin Mubai with thick eyebrows and said, "Tie it up first!" This is the rule anyway. After a while, there will be a big brother with you.

"Brother, just do it. Don't say much." Qin Mubai smiled slightly and cut his hands behind him. Qin Tong sighed, took a rope to tie up Qin Mubai, and went to the dragon tail of Wude Hall.

Hundreds of thousands of iron armor along the way, Qin Mubai looked sideways.

Looking up at the high Wude Hall and the seemingly endless Longwei Road ladder, Qin Mubai took a deep breath, straightened his chest, raised his head, and stepped out.

As soon as the first foot stepped on the dragon's tail road, suddenly there was a shout from the top of his head: "Xuan - the hundred cavalry envoys of the school, the governor of Lanzhou, Qin Mubai, the son-in-law, enter the hall!"

When Qin Tong heard this, he almost jumped up in surprise. He immediately cut off the rope on Qin Mubai's body with a knife and shouted, "Third brother! Third brother, do you hear me? The announcement is the history of the governor of the Hundred Horses, the governor of Lanzhou, and the son-in-law, not the prisoner! Third brother, you're all right. You're all right!"

"Hahaha! Brother, I'm not guilty! I'm not guilty!" The two brothers hugged each other tightly, and Qin Tong cried with joy.

At this time, a great figure appeared at the end of the dragon tail road. He cut his hand and stood. He said loudly in the wind and rain, and his voice was as loud as a bell: "Qin Mubai, you are so bold that you are too late to announce you! - Come on, catch him!"

"King of Jiangxia!" Qin Mubai shouted in surprise and let go with Qin Tong. It's true that several hundred riders came forward to take Qin Mubai, and they were kicked away one by Qin Mubai.

Qin Mubai quickly ran to the Dragon Tail Road, stood in front of Li Daozong breathlessly, and smiled at him: "Your Majesty!"

"Bad boy!" Li Daozong patted Qin Mubai on the shoulder heavily, then held up the sword with both hands and presented it to Qin Mubai, saying, "The sword of the emperor, and the imperial army of the full imperial city are yours for the time being. The Tongxunmen, Changlemen and other places connected to the Taiji Palace and the East Palace may all have changes. Go ahead and do something you want to do.

"Thank you, Emperor! Thank you, Lord!" Qin Mubai took the sword, wiped the rain on his face vigorously, pulled the sword out of its sheath, and roared sharply--

"Where are the hundred riders!"

"Listen to the order!" Qin Tong, who was close at hand, and hundreds of horsemen knelt down in the rain and roared in the rain.

"Where are the generals of Jin Wuwei, Qian Niuwei and the prison guard?"

The generals in the court ran out together and bowed to Qin Mubai, who stood with his sword, on one knee.

"Listen to my order and mobilization all the imperial troops to defend the imperial city. The left and right prison guards blocked the palace gates and government offices everywhere under martial law. Zuo Qianniuwei Town guarded Wude Hall. Right Qianniuwei specially protected your majesty's safety. Jinwuwei guarded Tongxunmen and Changlemen. If there are rebels to attack, they will be killed without mercy!"

"No!" The generals will listen to the order.

"Hundreds of riders." Qin Mubai took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "All the horses go out together, half led by Qin Tong to guard the harem; half, follow the general into the East Palace, and capture the traitor Li Yuanchang!" If there is obstruction, resistance, escape and no surrender, there is no mercy to kill!"

"No!"

"Except for Li Yuanchang." Qin Mubai took his sword back to the sheath and said in a cold voice, "Catch it alive."
