The first rebel of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 394 Exiled Elder Sun Chong (Sixth)
The appearance of Wei Zheng changed Changsun Wuji's face instantly.

He stared at Wei Zheng firmly.

Because of the things he was responsible for, he made himself unhappy.

But Wei Zheng didn't look at him, and directly saluted Li Shimin.

"Meet Your Majesty!"

"How's it going? How's the case of assassinating Lizhi going?"

Li Shimin asked.

It turned out that Li Shimin had been asking Wei Zheng to handle this matter.

Heard that some big progress has been made recently.

And Changsun Wuji also knew that that incident had a great relationship with Changsun Chong, and it could be said that Changsun Chong planned it all by himself.

Therefore, when Wei Zheng arrived, Changsun Wuji was very upset.

"Return to Your Majesty, it has been found out!"

Changsun Wuji was shocked when he heard this!

"Oh? Is it really Chong'er's fault?"

Li Shimin asked directly.

"Yes! It was the eldest grandson who stabbed and killed Her Highness the Princess and the sixth prince! These are the two brothers of the Zheng family and some members of the Zheng family who participated in the testimony!"

As soon as Wei Zheng's words came out.

Li Shimin's face became extremely ugly.

If it was someone else's words, it would be easier to say something, but this eldest sun Chong is the nephew of the eldest sun empress!
At this time, the more this is the case, the less he can do favoritism. Once he does something unfair, he will definitely not be supported.

As for Changsun Wuji, he said: "Wei Zheng, this depends on the evidence. Do you have any evidence? Don't talk nonsense without evidence!"

At the same time, Changsun Wuji was itching with hatred, how dare the Zheng family do such a thing?Are you courting death?

Wei Zheng said bluntly: "There are witnesses and physical evidence! Otherwise, I would not dare to tell the truth to His Majesty! Please don't question me?"

"Where is the evidence?"

Changsun Wuji might not admit it.

"During the interrogation, all the ministers were present, and Chang Sun Chong also pleaded guilty. Now we are waiting for your Majesty's decree! Isn't that enough?"

Wei Zheng's words were undoubtedly a huge blow to Changsun Wuji.

"I don't believe it! It must be Li Yin who made trouble!"

"Wuji, Chong'er made a mistake, so he has to be punished. How can it be said that Li Yin made trouble? Besides, he is also a victim!"

Li Shimin couldn't listen anymore.

"So, the eldest grandson must be punished, otherwise he will not be able to convince the crowd!"

At this time, Fang Xuanling came forward and said: "The one who assassinates the princess, according to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, he should be punished!"

As soon as these words came out, Changsun Wuji was in despair.

That is to kill Chang Sun Chong.

He is his only son.

He glared at Fang Xuanling fiercely, what are you talking about?
But even if Fang Xuanling didn't say anything, Chang Sun Chong would not end well!

"Your Majesty, Chong'er must have been persecuted before being forced to admit it!"

"Duke Qi, don't open your eyes and talk nonsense. I interrogated Chang Sun Chong together with all the military ministers, and no punishment was used during the interrogation. Otherwise, let him enter the palace to have a look!"

Wei Zheng was furious.

How could this grandson Wuji do this?
"Wei Zheng, I'm not talking about you, but the Zheng family!"

"If you have an opinion, you can re-examine it and ask your Majesty to preside over it! Don't make random guesses. I have both physical and personal evidence."

After finishing, Wei Zheng said to Li Shimin again: "Your Majesty, I can present physical and personal evidence, please make a decision!"

"Your Majesty, please retrial!"

Li Shimin waved his hand.

"Wuji, Li Zhi has also said about the good deeds that Changsun Chong did, and she is very sure that he did it. I just want to give him a chance to confess, but you have always been partial. Your actions have made me very disappointed. !"

In fact, Li Shimin was a little surprised. It should be said that the Zheng family was also involved.

Why did Chang Sun Chong take care of this matter alone.

He wanted to attack the Zheng family, but now it seems that he can only punish Changsun Chong.

At this time, a eunuch came to report.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness, please see me!"

"Why is he here?"

Li Shimin wondered.What are you doing here at this juncture?
Then another eunuch said: "His Royal Highness is here!"

The two mothers and sons came together.

"Let them in!"

Li Shimin said.

With a pockmarked face, Li Chengqian entered the palace with Empress Changsun.

"Queen, save your nephew!"

Changsun Wuji said as soon as he came.

The Empress Changsun thought for a while, and then said: "Your Majesty, I have heard about Chong'er, let's see if I can be punished lightly? After all, he is my brother's only flesh and blood!"

Li Chengqian said:

"That's right! Father, Chang Sun Chong must have been bewitched by something to do that stupid thing! Or it must have been ordered by Li Yin!"

Cheng Yaojin didn't want to talk at first, but now he must.

"Who would instruct an opponent to kill him?"

This made Li Chengqian unable to reply a word.

Yeah, who would do such a stupid thing?
"Your Majesty! Chong'er is still a child, and there are still many things to do in the future, such as heavy punishment..."

"Duke Qi's meritorious service is high, can he use his meritorious service to offset the crime of Changsun Chong!"

Li Chengqian said again.

Changsun Wuji looked at the two gratefully.

As for Cheng Yaojin, Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng, they did not speak.

At this time, both the queen and the prince had spoken, so it all depended on Li Shimin's decision.

Li Shimin remained silent.

"His Majesty!"

Empress Changsun came over.

Long before, she was entrusted by the eldest grandson Wuji.

Tell her to help Changsun Chong, no matter what, Changsun Chong is also a single descendant of the Changsun family!

It's the future of the eldest grandson's family, so he can't just die like this!
Even if Changsun Chong was going to be unfavorable to Li Lizhi that day, and then, he even persuaded Empress Changsun.

She also said that this is the last appearance.

As for what to do, it depends on Chang Sun Chong's fortune.

That eldest Sun Chong should have died.

In the end, Li Shimin couldn't resist the persuasion of Empress Changsun.

He had no choice but to say: "Okay, don't talk about it, Chang Sun Chong's crime has been confirmed, the death penalty can be exempted, but the living crime cannot be escaped!"

Having said that, Changsun Wuji heaved a sigh of relief.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

He cried, and finally saved Chang Sun Chong's life!
"Then how will His Majesty punish him?"

Wei Zheng asked.

This matter is under his control.

He should have been the judge, but Li Shimin spoke.

He could only obey Li Shimin's words.

"Then let him be exiled in Liangzhou for three years!"

As soon as Li Shimin's words fell, he was considered kind, and Changsun Wuji was relieved.

It's not permanent exile, that is, after three years, Chang Sun Chong can still come back.There will be a chance to come back in the future!

"Thank you, Your Majesty! Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Changsun Wuji wept with joy.

"Go on, I don't want to talk anymore!"

Li Shimin waved his hand and turned around.

He didn't want to see Changsun Wuji anymore.

Rather than not wanting to speak.

Changsun Wuji understood very well, so he quickly left the palace and headed for the prison.

This good news must be let him know!

He didn't know that his visit directly killed many people and gave Li Yin the upper hand.

And the eldest grandson's family will have nothing!
ps. Let’s go here first today!
