Chapter 72 Ming Contest
The sun sets, and when the last ray of sunset disappears from the horizon, the chaotic day finally comes to an end. Chang'an is extremely quiet under the night, but there is an undercurrent surging inside the Wang family in the city.
This undercurrent is quietly brewing within the Wang family, unknown to outsiders. Perhaps it will not reveal its power until it breaks out.
At this time, Li Chengqian had already gone to bed. He worked hard for half a night last night and did nothing. He had been struggling for another day today and was really tired. Besides, I am afraid that tomorrow's morning court will not be better, so how can I not be able to maintain my energy?
The long night passed slowly, and when the day was dim, Li Chengqian was woken up from his dream. After sorting it out, he cheered up his spirit and left the Lanruo Temple with high fighting spirit.
This is the second time in half a year that Li Chengqian is full of expectations for the court. The last time this state is probably going back to the first time he went to court a few months ago.
After a night of fermentation, almost the entire Chang'an knew about Li Chengqian's confrontation with the Wang family. Now the entire court seems to be optimistic about Li Chengqian, so from the beginning, the atmosphere in the court was particularly strange.
Even the censors who used to be looking for trouble were quiet, until the eunuch shouted: Report early if you have something to do, and leave the court without anything to do, an official from the Wang family finally stood up.
"Your Majesty, I impeach the prince to bully Liang, to commit 18 crimes, including slandering soldiers and destroying agriculture and sericulture." After Li Er's permission, the minister who stood up stammered his head and kept counting Li Chengqian's eighteen major crimes. Finally, he glanced at Li Chengqian, his eyes full of provocation.
"Crown Prince, are you arguing about Lord Wang's impeachment?" Li Er asked with a slight squinted at his eldest son and asked with a sarcasm.
"Father, my son also has a memorial, but there is only one charge. Impeachment from Lord Wang to participate in the rebellion." Li Chengqian had been impatient for a long time. When he saw his father asking, he jumped out.
I have been holding this in my mouth for several days, and it feels so good to say it "crack".
"Hu, Hu said, my Wang family has always passed on poetry and books to pass on their families. How could it mean to be rebellious? Your Majesty, I impeach the crown prince and slander the court officials." How could the minister surnamed Wang take the title of treason? He immediately refuted.
However, in front of his father, he said that his son bullied him. Such a strange thing is also awesome. Lao Cheng, who was kneeling aside, has never liked these civil servants. His black booze bounced over, which made Lord Wang glar.
"Don't say so noble, let me ask you, Wang Huaili is a member of your Wang family?" Li Chengqian now understands the impeachment. As long as he doesn't believe it, the old man named Wang will be useless to play ten thousand pieces.
He could not make sense without saying anything, and he could not tell the truth. Li Chengqian had been from later generations and had much less respect for imperial power. He was afraid that Lao Li would be more afraid of being beaten.
He was prepared for today's things and communicated with Lao Li in advance. Now he didn't speak, so he was clearly giving him a chance to speak.
With my own support, what else is Li Chengqian afraid of?
When the author was a child, he smashed someone's glass and was found at home. Seeing that his son was 1.9 meters tall and more than one head higher than his neighbor, the neighbor had to raise his head when he spoke. His mood should be similar to that of Li Chengqian. This is his sense of superiority in his heart. Of course, if he gives him a sense of oppression, he can only ask the other party.
"Wang Huaili is my Wang family branch, but what does this have to do with the rebellion mentioned by Your Highness?" This old man Wang, who has been a big family for hundreds of thousands of years, could not deny the relationship between Wang Huaili and the Wang family in any case, mainly because he could not afford to lose that person.
Moreover, Wang Huaili is still locked up in the Right Martial Guard. The Wang family received the news that the person was arrested. I really don’t know why he was arrested.
In their opinion, Li Chengqian must have been angry that he was blocked by the mine, so he sent troops to arrest people in anger.
"Since it's your Wang family, then you can't get rid of the matter of his men taking over the mine and attacking the court office, right?" Li Chengqian asked with a smile on his face.
Originally, Li Chengqian was afraid that the old man Wang would deny his relationship with Wang Huaili, so the hat would be difficult to deduct. Now that this guy admitted it, the next thing would be much easier.
"No, he just blocked His Highness's mine because the prince's mine affected Chunfen, and in anger he blocked His Highness's mine. Instead, His Highness turned black and white, and sent troops to commit crimes, and what was his intention to arrest our good-natured son of the Wang family in prison?" The consequences of the asymmetry of the news made Old Man Wang lose his first move without knowing it, and was still working hard for his plan.
"Mr. Wang can really avoid the important things. Occupying the mine has become a blockade. He openly clamored that he is a man of the king's law and has become a good person in the mouth of Lord Wang. This ability to turn black and white is indeed amazing." Without waiting for Li Chengqian to speak, Yuchi Gong, who had learned about the incident last night, mocked with a dark face.
"You, you're talking nonsense." Lord Wang's face changed at that time. If what Yuchi Gong said was true, Li Erzhen would pursue it and be afraid that the Wang family would lose their skin.
"The hundreds of miners on the mine yesterday proved that Wang Huaili openly clamored that the mine in the court belonged to the Wang family, and then shouted that he was Wang Fa in front of our court soldiers. I'm afraid that Lord Wang doesn't know about this?" After giving Yuchi Gong a grateful look, Li Chengqian asked leisurely.
"This..." Lord Wang had nothing to say for a moment, and hated Wang Huaili, that idiot.
It was clear that he could just block the mine. Who knew that this bastard actually took over the mine by himself.
Although the news from the main house is required like this, things have to be taken step by step.
How could Old Man Wang, an important minister in the court, not understand the consequences of openly occupying the court office? What he now thinks is not to impeach Li Chengqian or to protect Wang Huaili, but how to protect himself.
"Mr. Wang has nothing to say? Even though his family occupied the court office and openly resisted the court's troops, he later falsely accused the crown prince of the country. Lord Wang thought the charge of rebellion was correct?" Faced with the speechless old man Wang, Li Chengqian began to advance step by step.
"Your Majesty, the old minister is wronged. The old minister is deceived by the thief in his family and has no intention of rebellion. I hope your master will tell you clearly!" At this point, Old Man Wang has no idea of impeaching Li Chengqian. Although he secretly hated Wang Huaili for ruining good things, the most urgent task is how to protect the Wang family.
Li Chengqian was still waiting for it, but was interrupted by Lao Li's light cough. He turned his head to look at his father, but the old man looked back at his seat.
After glaring back at Li Chengqian, Li Er hesitated for a while, finally took two deep breaths, slapped his palm on the table, and said, "Wang Tong was deceived by the thief, demoted his official position to three levels, and thought about it behind closed doors for half a year. Retreat the court!"
