Chapter 429 Suddenly, the old monk who made a big mistake

The monk Pharaoh felt that the Buddha should let the demon-subduing Wei Tuo take action and use the demon-subduing pestle to kill the group of "city management pickets" outside like hooligans.

It has been ten days since these guys were blocking outside under the banner of the government and not allowing anyone to come in. At the same time, they also posted notices on the temple gate, saying that the temple would take half a month to check the "four defenses" work.

Damn the "four defenses", only a genius knows what the "four defenses" are to prevent. Go to Jingzhao Mansion to inquire, but the answer is: go to the relevant regulations to find it!

‘Related Regulations’ What is this? When did the Tang Dynasty have ‘Related Regulations’?

In ten days, all the information related to the Tang Dynasty laws in the temple was broken. I don’t know which book is the ‘relevant regulations’. I went to Jingzhao Prefecture to ask, but the result was the same sentence.

Pufa feels that he is going crazy. Isn’t it just that he has lost 48,000 guan of money? He won’t be able to do such a big battle? As for the temples in Chang’an that have been sealed?

If you want money, you can discuss it. The temple is not without money, but what if you want 100,000 yuan to come up? You can't make a profit like this. Even the prince of the Tang Dynasty should make some sense.

There are a lot of complaints, but there is no place to tell me. I can only hope that the information sent yesterday will come in handy. I hope that the Tang Dynasty censors who received the letter of report can impeach that ungrateful little bastard.

I have to say that he had good luck in promoting the law. His prayers seemed to have been received by the Buddha. During the morning court, Li Chengqian was indeed called to the court as a "defendant".

"Crown Prince, several censors impeach you like several temples in Chang'an to extort money and property. Is this a matter?" His Majesty Li Er, who was arrogant, pretended to be confused. He knew what Li Chengqian had done, but he insisted on asking questions clearly.

"Return to Father, there is no such thing!" Li Chengqian shook his head firmly. He just went to ask for his own money, which has nothing to do with blackmail.

Wei Heizi walked out of the court, first gave Li Chengqian a courteous ceremony, and then asked: "Your Highness, the Pharaoh Son claimed that you had gone to his temple to ask for 100,000 chunks of money. I wonder if this is the case?"

"Uh, why? I can't ask for my own money?" Li Chengqian looked at Wei Heizi's serious old face and couldn't help but feel that the old monk Pufa was really powerful and could find him on his head.

"Your Highness, the Pharaoh Monk claimed that he only owed the Prince of Hejian for 48,000 guan, why did he become 100,000 guan when he arrived here? I wonder if Your Highness explained this matter like this?" After Wei Zheng, Wang Tong jumped out again.

This guy is also persistent enough. As long as he has the chance, he will definitely be among the people who impeach Li Chengqian, and he will never be absent from work.

"Explanation?" Li Chengqian turned a blind eye to the Fairy Cheng who was winking at him. He only looked at Wang Tong for a while before saying, "Chief Wang, are you wrong to say that I am a victim, I'm going to ask for money?"

"This..." Wang Tong was stunned for a moment, but he quickly realized: "But your Highness, you want more."

"What if it's not much? Should the old monk give me the money?"

"Your Highness, you are asking for more money now. According to Tang Dynasty law, it is blackmail." Wei Zheng interrupted again.

"Doctor Wei, I am not a prisoner now, right?" Li Chengqian's face was slightly dark and turned his head to ask Wei Zheng.

"Your Highness, forgive me! The old minister has made a mistake!" Wei Zheng reacted quickly, and first admitted his mistake before the matter was irreversible, and then said: "Your Highness can explain why you must ask for 100,000 jin of silver with the Pharaoh Monk?"

"I also want Doctor Wei to say, if I ask for money, what will you do when you wait? Will you arrest the pharaoh monk and put it in prison?" Li Chengqian asked Wei Zheng back, but his eyes were looking at Wang Tong.

Obviously, if Wei Zheng came out to ask himself that it was out of public interest, then Wang Tong would definitely be here to take advantage of the situation, so Li Chengqian would never be polite to such a person.

But Wang Tong was very smart and directly avoided answering Li Chengqian's questions. He asked Xu Shu to join Cao's camp without saying a word.

"Your Highness, just say anything if you have. You have to believe Wei Heizi's character, and you will definitely seek justice for Your Highness!" During the stalemate, since the Turks returned, and had enough rest at home, Cheng Yaojing who came to court jumped out, hit the east and west with his big fingers, and guided the north.

"Since Uncle Cheng said that..." Li Chengqian reached into his arms, took out a piece of stuff from it, glanced around the hall, and finally walked to Du Ruhui, handed the things in his hand to Lao Du and said, "How about Uncle Du for me?"

"Here!" Du Ruhui nodded after asking Old Li with his eyes and agreed to Li Chengqian's request.

Then, a contract that was thousands of words was read by Lao Du, and it was full of emotion. When he read: "If the debt cannot be settled in the same year, half of the total fee will be paid every year as a liquidated damages (late payment fees).', everyone in the hall said again, and Wei Zheng and Wang Tong also returned.

"Hey, according to the date on this contract, it seems that the prince needs 100,000 guan, which seems to be a little less. It should cost 150,000 guan." Cheng Yaojing jumped out again, fearing that the world would not be in chaos, and said to Wei Zheng and Wang Tong: "I say you two, don't you ignore this matter, right?"

"Thank you, Uncle Cheng, for being frank." Li Chengqian first bowed to the old Chenggong, then turned to Wei Zheng and said, "Doctor Wei, since the pharaoh monk made the matter to the court, can I also sue him for not paying back the debt and falsely accusing others of his crime?"

Wei Zheng's old face turned green and red, secretly hated that he had just listened and believed, and he could only bow his hands and felt ashamed. As for Wang Tong, Li Chengqianli ignored him and said that if he had trouble with him, he would probably have gone to Yazhou long ago.

After letting Old Wei go, Li Chengqian came to the middle of the hall and said to the smiling old man opposite: "Father, my son-in-law, I want to ask my father to forgive Sun Fujia, the former young minister of Dali Temple, for his dereliction of duty, and restore him to his post, so that he can be responsible for the trial of this important case involving a total amount of 150,000 yuan."

Old Li just finished listening to the contract that Du Ruhui read and was sighing that tens of thousands of silver were going to be deposited again, when Li Chengqian mentioned it, he remembered that the Dali Temple Minister was now empty and the only Shaoqing was locked up by himself.

"This..." Li Er pondered, it was a little difficult to step down. After all, he was imprisoned in the Ministry of Justice. If he was released like this, he always felt a little embarrassed.

"Father, please forgive me for being fined by Uncle Yuanchang." Seeing that the old man seemed unable to step down, Li Chengqian couldn't help but plead for help again, and at the same time, he asked for help from Du Ruhui and his uncle Changsun Wuji.

With the relationship between Changsun Wuji and Li Er, he had known that Li Er would definitely be attracted by the 150,000 yuan of silver coins, but he was a little embarrassed and released Sun Fujia and asked him to investigate the case. So with Li Chengqian's prompt eyes, he reported at the same time as Du Ruhui: "Your Majesty, I want to forgive him for his own talent."
