Chapter 124: Use a monk to be a relative?

At the same time, Li Chengqian also received news that Li Tai committed suicide. Originally, Li Chengqian wanted to let Li Tai live, but after all, Li Tai's imperial path had been completely cut off.

Li Chengqian forgot that Li Tai, who has always regarded himself, lost his life goal and his legs were broken. How could he survive again?

However, in Li Chengqian's opinion, Li Tai died, so he didn't take it seriously. He just thought about what to do after history has been changed into chaos by him. He was full of confidence and a little confused...

Li Yifu looked at Li Chengqian sitting on it and said in a daze, and said, "Your Highness the Crown Prince's commoner Yan is six months pregnant."

Li Tai's wife Yan Wan is the daughter of Yan Lide, the young craftsman, and Yan Lide is the elder brother of the famous painter Yan Liben.

Yan Wan married Li Tai at the age of 11 and was two years younger than Li Tai. This is her first pregnancy at the age of 19.

The Yan clan's ancestors lived in Yongzhou and was a relative of the foreign country since the Northern Zhou Dynasty. Although no one served in the army during the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty, Yan Lide and Yan Liben were both trusted by Li Shimin and were one of the best architects and painters in the Tang Dynasty at that time.

"The common people rebelled against the Yan clan and did not participate, which also shows that the Yan clan did not know about the common people. Let her handle the funeral for the common people first!"

Li Chengqian thought that his subordinates were playing a more positive role as a Guanzhong clan. The Yan family was undoubtedly the most suitable. They were not outstanding in both the political and military circles, so there was no need to worry that they would become enemies with themselves one day.

Li Chengqian lowered his head and thought that Yan's family should not stay in the Eastern Palace, and they could not be allowed to join forces with Li Zhi. He turned to the old ghost and said, "Send to call the third brother, and then tell him that Yan Lide and Yan Liben will enter the Eastern Palace to paint for the orphan king."

"Abide by the order!" The old ghost went to make arrangements.

Li Chengqian didn't know that Li Tai met Li Zhi before his death, and he didn't care about Li Tai's death at all.

"Since Li Tai is dead, then you can arrest those two as soon as possible. You must not let these thieves get away with the law." Li Chengqian directly ordered.

"I obey the order!"

When Li Yi's mansion withdrew from Chongjiao Hall, he personally led the two thousand guards from the Eastern Palace and rushed straight to Yu Zhining's cousin Yu Baoning's house.

After Yu Zhining was the top Guanlong military aristocratic group in the Western Wei Eight Pillar Kingdom, Yu Jin had more than a dozen sons and dozens of grandsons. In Yu Zhining's generation, there were more people, but fewer officials than the previous two generations, and there were only a few local governors.

Just like Yu Zhining is the most outstanding person who has been an official in the court. Yu Zhining's cousin Yu Yongning is a person who has no other ability except doing evil.

Because he didn't become an official, he managed the Yu family's property at home, and then bullied the people with his family's power. He was also a little bully in Chang'an.

Yu Yongning's house is behind Zhining's mansion, and Li Yi's mansion has long sent to investigate it.

Two thousand Eastern Palace Guards surrounded Yu Yongning, and then found Yu Yongning to announce his involvement in Li Tai's rebellion, and immediately arrested him and his family.

Yu Yongning was scared, and even Yu Zhining's family living in front and other Yu family members nearby were scared.

Li Yi's mansion confiscated Yu Yongning's home and led people to kill Changsun Shunde's home in a mighty way.

Changsun Shunde was Changsun Ji's clan uncle and one of the twenty-four heroes of Lingyan Pavilion. He died in the early years of Zhenguan. Now his son Changsun Jiaqing is in charge of his family.

Changsun Jiaqing was the second goal chosen by Li Yifu. One is that he is worth a lot of weight, and the other is that his father Changsun Shunde was greedy during his lifetime and was prone to finding problems.

After Li Yifu confiscated Changsun Shunde's house, he asked the two families to go directly to the criminal jail, and he went to Dongshi to see Qiu Shenji's public trial of the Wei Shanfu case.

Li Yifu went to Dongshi to find Qiu Shenji's public trial place. He saw a high platform on the street of Dongshi, and sat in front of a Dali Temple minister sent by Dali Temple.

On the right hand of Dali Temple Cheng, was a Zhou Jin who was less than four feet tall. Zhou Jin is now a famous figure in the Eastern Palace, so Li Yi can certainly recognize him at a glance.

On the left side of the high platform was a group of complaining people, and Wei Shanfu knelt in the middle.

The Gaotai is surrounded by guards sent by the East Palace and Dali, and further out there are crowds of people.

When Li Yi's mansion came, Zhou Jin was loudly proclaiming Wei Shanfu's crime one by one. Everyone below listened to him seriously. Occasionally, one or two people were filled with anger and wanted to curse a few words, but as soon as they spoke, they were suppressed by the people next to them.

"Where are even worse things to listen to?"

...

...

Li Yifu stood at the outermost periphery and was fifty steps away from the platform. He could barely hear what Zhou Jin said. He saw the simple people in the audience listening to the evil done by Wei Shanfu and the Wei family, and they were filled with righteous indignation.

He sighed in his heart: His Royal Highness has a trick. As soon as Wei Shanfu's crime was announced, the people who were so angry that His Majesty really wanted to protect him may not be able to protect him.

Thinking of Changsun Jiaqing and Yu Yongning, if they have been tried in such a public manner, I still don’t know how many crimes can be found?

Who cares whether he or she is treasonable or not?

Moreover, if they are disclosed in this way, it will inevitably involve Changsun Wuji and Yu Zhining. Even if Changsun’s old fox is not easy to involve, the Changsun family has also attracted such great public anger and he would be embarrassed to go to Pingzhangyuan?

Li Yifu was completely relieved to see this, so he immediately sent someone to squeeze into the crowd and called Qiu Shenji out.

He asked Qiu Shenji to arrange for people to go to Changsun Shunde and Yu Yongning's house to collect other evidence of their crimes besides treason. Qiu Shenji agreed to arrange for them immediately, and Li Yifu returned to Pingzhangyuan with peace of mind.

In the upper room of Pingzhang Courtyard, Changsun Wuji and Xiao Yu sat on it separately. They each held a memorial approved by Li Chengqian. Below were Su Xun, the Minister of Personnel, and Cui Dunli, the Minister of War. The two were waiting for Changsun Wuji and Xiao Yu to give an explanation.

Changsun Wuji is now in charge of the government affairs of the three ranks of officials, civilians, and military officials, and Xiao Yu is in charge of the government affairs of the three ranks of rituals, punishments, and laborers. Originally, the affairs of these two people should have been handled by Changsun Wuji, but Cui Dunli wrote a letter to ask for the Tang Dynasty princess for Xue Yantuo Zhenzhu Khan. This matter belongs to the Ministry of Rites and Honglu Temple.

Originally, Li Shimin had to be submitted for comment on such a marriage kinship, but in order to train Li Chengqian, Li Shimin asked Li Chengqian to handle all the memorials first.

After Li Chengqian handled the important ones, he handed over to him for a review. As a result, Li Chengqian directly approved the memorial in Xiao Yu and sent it back to Cui Dunli.

If Li Chengqian approved the marriage proposal based on Zhu Suiliang and Xiao’s plan to agree to the marriage, it would be nothing to hand it over to Cui Dunli and report it to Li Shimin.

The problem is that Li Chengqian criticized the above: I rewarded the monk Xueyantuo with a thousand people preaching Buddhism in the desert and praying for Xueyantuo's blessings, and a hundred Taoist priests refining the elixir of immortality for Xueyantuo Khan.

This made Cui Dunli stunned. What he asked for was a princess. If you reward him with a monk, what the hell is a Taoist priest?

Su Xun's part was to scold Shi Quan Wanji, the chief of the Qi Palace, and to scold him without clarification, and to directly punish Feng Lu for ten thousand years.

Quan Wan wrote a letter to sue Li You for assassination. What is the reason why you didn’t punish the King of Qi Li You but scolded Quan Wanji?

Cui Dunli and Su Xun were both embarrassed when they received the memorials criticized by Li Chengqian. They did not dare to go directly to Li Shimin and worry that Li Chengqian would hold a grudge against them. Recently, it has been rumored that Li Chengqian was narrow-minded in the Chang'an officialdom.

However, it seemed impossible for them to follow the Li Chengqian approval, so they could only come to Pingzhangyuan to find Changsun Wuji and Xiao Yu.

When Changsun Wuji saw these two memorials, he was very happy. He really wanted to encounter such a thing when Li Tai gave Li Chengqian some eye drops when he died.

Changsun Wuji pretended to be pondered and said, "Your Majesty must be personally criticized by Your Majesty. Why don't we go directly to Your Majesty?"

When Xiao Yu saw that Li Chengqian wanted to send a thousand monks to the desert for no reason, he felt angry and resentful, and he naturally agreed when he heard this.

So Changsun Wuji, Xiao Yu, Su Xun and Cui Dunli went to Ganlu Palace to meet Li Shimin.
