The first rebel of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 193 Punish Cheng Fang and Two?

With the imperial decree, it quickly spread to the Tai Chi Palace.

After many people found out, they were panic-stricken.

After a long time, Cheng Yaojin and Fang Xuanling entered the palace feeling puzzled.

What are you doing to let yourself into the palace?
They are busy with the West Market.

As soon as the two of them entered the palace, they heard Li Shimin shout: "Knowing the festival and Xuanling! Do you two know your mistake?"

All of a sudden, the two were confused.

"Your Majesty, did I do something to make you unhappy?"

Cheng Yaojin asked.

Fang Xuanling also said: "Your Majesty, is it not the minister's achievements? You can raise it, and ask us if we know what is wrong. The minister is very at a loss."

The two of them never expected that they would be murdered by Li Shimin.

Where did they go wrong?
This is comparable to a conversation between lovers. The woman asks the man because he knows something is wrong, but the man does not know what is wrong.That was very embarrassing.

Anyway, they are also the founding heroes.

And Li Shimin was born and died.

Even if he made a mistake, Li Shimin would not be as fierce as he is today.

"Hmph! Shujie, tell me!"

Li Shimin suddenly changed his mind.

It went directly to Wang Gui.

Sure enough, someone who can become an emperor must have two or three tricks.

Judging from Li Shimin's behavior, it is to transfer the contradiction.

It means that I didn't want to do it at first, but Wang Gui requested it and even made a petition.

In Li Shimin's opinion, this kind of thing is not a big deal compared to the merits of the two, and they want to make money because the treasury has no money.

Wang Gui felt cheated.

But what I said just now, there is no reason not to punish them.

That is to say: "General Cheng, Wei Guogong, I have a petition from a hundred private merchants here, which says a petition, asking His Majesty to strictly control the phenomenon of officials acting as merchants."

That is also very obvious.

But Cheng Yaojin has a thick skin.

Ask directly: "Then what does it matter to us?"

Wang Gui was in a hurry.

"Is the store you two opened together with the Sixth Prince in West Market counted as a business?"

With that said, the faces of the two changed.

Li Shimin said at this time: "You have to give me a reasonable explanation! Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"

Wang Gui laughed, as long as the two were punished, Li Yin would be half finished.

It can't be hit from the front, but it can make him uncomfortable from the side.

Without the sellers in West Market, Sheng Tang Group's sales will definitely not increase.

Wei Zheng knew it was not easy.

So he said: "Your Majesty, there may be some difficulties in this. General Cheng and the two are people with great achievements. They must be thinking about Tang Qiang with all their heart. They have thought about doing such a thing!"

This is tantamount to whitewashing them.

But Wang Gui said: "No matter what, the rules are like this. If you make a mistake, you should be punished!"

It seems that he is following closely.

Both Cheng Yaojin and Fang Xuanling knew that the Wang family where Wang Gui lived had irreconcilable conflicts with Li Yin.

Wang Gui's move this time must have been because he wanted to contain Li Yin.

So they couldn't hold back Li Yin's legs, and if necessary, they had to break his legs.

Fang Xuanling is always a smart person, he knows how to make such a choice.

So he said: "Your Majesty, the minister and Zhijie have no intention of doing business!"

As far as the facts are concerned, this is not the case. They spent tens of thousands of taels, and they have almost recovered it now.

"That's how it is explained?"

Li Shimin was very passive.

"I want to expand the income through the six princes' group to help the victims in Shandong. During this period of time, there is exactly 3 taels of profit! I am going to propose to send it to the victims in Shandong. In the future, whenever there is a need in the Tang Dynasty, I will do it." Where to go for help!"

This is also a last resort.

If you don't do this, it must be a huge blow to the two of them.

Will follow Wang Gui's way.

It also made it very difficult for Li Shimin to be a human being.

That's why he said that.

After Cheng Yaojin heard this, although he was a little unwilling, he also echoed: "Yes, Your Majesty, I don't want to hide this from you, and we are also low-key people, there is no reason to make the battle too big!"

In this way, it seems very reasonable.

After hearing this, Li Shimin breathed a sigh of relief.

Fang Xuanling did not disappoint him.

But Wang Gui was upset.

After finally messing with them once, they were resolved.

In the next thing, Li Shimin will definitely face them and cheat them.

"I didn't expect Xuanling to have a profit of 3 taels in just a few days. What about Zhijie?"

When Li Shimin asked, everyone felt that it was not good.

This seems to be the appearance of meddling.

"It's also 3 taels!"

In just a few days, the profit has reached [-].

How much is true is unknown.

Li Shimin would not investigate either.

"It's hard for the good intentions of the two of you! But officials are not businessmen, I have reiterated this point again and again! In the future, the two of you should not go to the West Market. As for the shares there, let the imperial court take over! Do these things well , I won’t punish you anymore, don’t do similar things in the future!”

It seemed that Li Shimin would not punish the two of them. Although Wang Gui was a bit unwilling, he had achieved his goal and weakened Li Min's power. That was his main goal, and he didn't want to recruit Ruo Chengfang.

But Cheng Yaojin was the first to quit.

"Your Majesty, the imperial court is also an official. If it takes over, it is still an official and a business. How about this, let's go out and withdraw our shares, and we will no longer be involved in such incidents!"

Cheng Yaojin thought to himself, if the imperial court intervenes, they may lose all their money, but if they withdraw by themselves, they can sell some shares to Li Yin.

Now I can get some money back, the best of both worlds.

Wei Zheng was straightforward.

He said directly: "Yes, I think General Cheng is right, and the court cannot intervene, so it is better to withdraw the shares!"

Naturally, Wang Gui did not want the court to intervene.

After all, the imperial court really has shares.

Then Li Yin's momentum will be even greater.

He also stood up and said: "Your Majesty, the imperial court cannot participate in this matter. Otherwise, it will arouse public anger!"

Fang Xuanling also said: "Yes, Your Majesty, this is impossible!"

Li Shimin was at a loss. Originally, the four seemed to be divided into two factions, but now it seemed that they were working together to stop him.

This is interesting.

Is your decision wrong?
In the end, I had to say: "Okay, you go to withdraw the shares now, and the money you get will be accepted by the household department for disaster relief on your behalf!"

The four of them can't play with one Li Shimin.

In the end, although his decision was not good, it was not bad for Cheng Yaojin and Fang Xuanling.

For Wang Gui, he achieved his goal.

Let the forces behind Li Yin disintegrate.

I am even more delighted.

"But there are other things?"

Li Shimin asked again.

Wang Gui said: "I have other things to do, please leave first!"

Cheng Yaojin and Fang Xuanling also said: "Let's go to withdraw the shares!"

The three of them went out.

Now there is only one Wei Zheng left.

"Why are you looking for me?"
