Back to Tang Dynasty to be Emperor

It was exactly noon when Li Ke returned to the mansion. After lunch with Yang En, Chen Qi, Zhu Tong and Wang Zhongchang, he told the three of them to go to the school yard in the backyard to practice martial arts when they had nothing to do, or go to the stables to help the grooms feed them. Ma, I just didn't want the three of them to go out of Hanwang's mansion to make publicity outside. Although the three of them didn't know why Li Ke suddenly arranged them like this, they still bowed down to accept the order.

After the meal, Li Ke locked himself in the room and began to look at the doctor Li Shimin left in the room.The purpose of Li Ke's visit to the doctor is obvious. He just wanted to understand the functions and special effects of the poisonous body in the queen's body. Today, he reminded himself of a sentence he said to Wei Zheng, that is, he wanted Wei Zheng to preserve the evidence and medicine residue.Therefore, he wanted to look through it, and wanted to learn more about the functions of the kidneys and sandalwood.However, to Li Ke's surprise, he found such a medicinal herb named Diyega in the records.According to medical records, during the Sui Dynasty, Fulin Kingdom was Daqin, and the Eastern Roman Empire sent an envoy to Xiandiyaka.Naturally, Li Ke found that Diyega was an ancient Western medicine, and its main ingredients were opium.

opium?poppy?These two words suddenly jumped into Li Ke's mind. According to medical records, there were medicines mixed with opium in the Sui Dynasty, so it would not be difficult for him to find opium seeds.If so... A crazy plan suddenly brewed in Li Ke's heart.At the same time, he had read the detailed records about the description of Diyega several times, and he was sure that the main ingredient in Diyega was opium. In the Sui Dynasty, the Fulin Kingdom paid tribute to Diyega as a drug.

Li Ke's face showed a yearning look, and it took a while for his expression to return to the original one. Then he looked at the name of the doctor's book, "Sutra", which is a manuscript, probably the only one Li Shimin found. .He carefully wrote down the content of the medicine about opium on a piece of paper, and kept the medicine in the cabinet of the table in his room, and then he gave up!And at this time, Ma Zhou, Liu Rengui, Deng Tongda, and Zuo Yi came to the Han Palace to meet Li Ke.Li Ke ordered Yang En to bring the four of them to the room, Yang En bowed to accept the order, and led the four of them to the room in a short time.

Ma Zhou, Liu Rengui, Deng Tongda, and Zuo Yi walked into the room to salute Li Ke. Li Ke told them to sit down. Yang En asked the Yingwei to serve tea. Before Li Ke asked them why they came to the palace, Liu Rengui suddenly knelt down with a "plop". "Your Highness, the General has let you down. Someone impeached the General today, saying that the General was formerly the rafter of the Han Palace, and now serves as the guard of the Qianniu Palace. Because the Queen's poisoning involved His Highness, the General will be the former head of the Han Palace. Avoid, so the prince has already decreed that the general should be relieved of his post, and stay at home to wait for the appointment of the Ministry of War."

"Really?" Li Ke suddenly got up from the couch and asked with joy after listening to Liu Rengui's narration.

"Your Highness, here is the official document from the Ministry of War. It is the last general who has failed His Highness' high expectations. He will no longer be able to complete the task His Highness entrusted to the last night. Please make amends." Liu Rengui said very sincerely, letting Liu Rengui resign. Li Ke, who was happy, suddenly blushed.

"Zhengzheng, my king is very happy for you!" Li Ke saw that everyone was staring at him with surprised eyes on why he was so happy after hearing Liu Rengui's resignation, so he explained in time, "There are too many gossip in the palace, it's not because you are so ambitious. Fighting on the battlefield is a place where people are treated, since the emperor has revoked his position this time, why don't you take the initiative to ask Ying to work at the border?"

After Li Ke finished speaking, the surprise in the hearts of everyone present was relieved, and at the same time they were all happy that Li Ke could consider Liu Rengui in every way.After all, the dismissal of Liu Rengui was a blow to Li Ke. At the critical moment in the poisoning case of the empress and noble concubine, Liu Rengui's appointment in the palace played a great role in Li Ke's life. How can Li Ke not know the consequences of Liu Rengui's dismissal for him if he shares his own strength.However, instead of blaming Liu Rengui, he was happy that he had left the palace, which is a place of right and wrong. Just imagine that all the people present here are Li Ke's subordinates.

"Your Highness! It doesn't matter if the general loses his official position, but he will be ashamed of His Highness for delaying the things His Highness ordered!" Liu Rengui still said guiltily.

Li Ke knew Liu Rengui's talent and his loyalty, so he helped Liu Rengui up and comforted him, "Zhengzheng, don't worry, what you have to do now is to tell Father to work at the border. I will definitely not object to your initiative to invite Ying. As for where do you want to go? Think about it..." Li Ke said here and began to ponder, and then he had another idea in his mind, "You can go to Youzhou."

"Youzhou?" Liu Rengui asked puzzled, "Why doesn't Your Highness let the general come to Taiyuan to help you?"

"You go to Youzhou first, and I still have important things for you to do in the future. I really don't feel at ease letting someone else be my king." Li Ke said, "And you go to Youzhou at this time, and I will let you do it later. When that matter happens, the mouths of some people in the court can be blocked, and they will no longer suspect that the king has ulterior motives."

"Okay!" Liu Rengui replied bluntly, "When the general returns, the emperor will go to Youzhou."

"En." Li Ke nodded in satisfaction.

Li Ke suddenly arranged Liu Rengui to Youzhou. Everyone present was puzzled, especially Ma Zhou, who was always extremely smart, was also puzzled. However, seeing Li Ke's solemnity to Liu Rengui, he dismissed the question of asking Li Ke. idea.

"Your Highness, I have organized the censors of Yushitai to impeach Liu Zhenghui today according to your wishes. The content of the impeachment is that he deliberately accused you of poisoning the queen during the public trial today." Ma Zhou said.

"En!" Li Ke said very satisfied, "Bin Wang, you did the right thing. Liu Zhenghui deliberately hinted several times in court today that this king is the mastermind behind the poisoning of the empress and noble concubine, and he kept encouraging Zhang Zhong to give false testimony, hum He thinks it is great to have someone backing him, but this king doesn't believe that the people behind him are more powerful than Yushitai's power."

"Your Highness, Yushitai is indeed very powerful. It is not a problem to deliberately impeach officials, even Changsun Wuji, but in the end it depends on the emperor's will!" Ma Zhou said with emotion, "Your arrangements for the three interrogators now It's very ingenious, there is Liu Zhenghui on the side of the prince, there is the king on the side of the king of Yue, and there is the minister of Dali Temple who is inclined to His Royal Highness. Therefore, it is very difficult to disqualify Liu Zhenghui from being a jury through the impeachment method of Yushitai."

"Bin Wang, this king has already thought of this, so I didn't think about disqualifying him as a juror. I just want him to restrain his arrogance." Li Ke said with a smile, "If Liu Zhenghui's jury qualification is disqualified, I will Wang is really worried that the person who will replace him will be another person like Changsun Wuji?"

"What Your Highness said is what His Highness said, so I will follow His Highness's wishes." Ma Zhou also echoed with a smile. The smiles of the two made Deng Tongda beside him look like normal people's smiles, and felt a little embarrassed.

"Well," Li Ke turned his gaze to Deng Tongda and Zuo Yi, "Have you gained anything?"

"Your Highness, I don't have any clues yet..." Deng Tongda spoke in a low voice, and compared with Ma Zhou and Liu Rengui, he seemed less confident, for fear that Li Ke would blame him.

"You really shouldn't be too hasty in this matter, lest there will be omissions, and your Chang'an county government still has its own official business to deal with, I am not good to you." Li Ke said empathetically, "But I don't know what the county government has done recently. Is there a big case?"

"Your Highness, the county government has not had any major cases recently, and what they deal with every day are disputes between merchants and property in Chang'an City." Zuo Yi replied, "But please rest assured, Your Highness, the minister has ordered the guards for twelve hours as His Highness ordered. The Tuguhu envoys monitoring the posthouse will report back to His Highness as soon as they have any news, and will not disappoint His Highness."

"Well, Zuo Wing! Don't worry about your work." Li Ke praised Zuo Wing, and asked at the same time, "Then Feng, the secretary of your county government, has nothing to do recently?"

Deng Tongda and Zuo Yi didn't know why Li Ke suddenly asked Wu Zuo Feng, but they knew that Wu Zuo Feng accompanied Li Ke's autopsy on the case of Qian Ning in the ninth year of Wude. Let Li Ke teach him his experience. It can be said that Li Ke is no stranger to Wu Zuo Feng, so today Li Ke suddenly mentioned Wu Zuo Feng, Deng Tongda and Zuo Yi were not very surprised. As for studying the autopsy, the county government hasn't had any major affairs recently, and he is very free."

"Well, that's good, then you recommend him to Dali Temple today! Let him go to Dali Temple to examine Xianglan's body and verify the cause of his death. I am sure he will gain a lot." Li Ke said with certainty, "Also, you have to recommend Wu Zuofeng to Dai Zhou, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, and also vaguely tell him that Zhang Zhong's life in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice is very dangerous. You don't need to say anything else. What, Dai Zhou is a smart man, he knows what he should do."

Feng Li Ke is no stranger to Feng Li Ke. The case of Qian Ning in the nine years of Wude left a deep influence on Li Ke. However, he saw that his autopsy was novel and effective against the law, so he asked himself for the records and materials of the autopsy regardless of his identity and life. Just because of this, Li Ke would not forget him.Moreover, Li Ke deliberately wrote to him after the fact that he knew that it was a lot of content about the examination of the corpse in the "Winning Injustice Collection".Therefore, Li Ke had great expectations for Feng at this time, and hoped that his two years would not be in vain, and that what he wrote to him would not be in vain.As for Dai Zhou, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, Li Ke analyzed his personality and talents after he served as the Shaoqing of Dali Temple. He himself was a former soldier of the Qin Palace, with an upright personality and a good knowledge of laws, regulations and rules.If Feng is recommended to him, Feng will investigate some clues from Xianglan that the imperial doctor did not find, and with Deng Tongda's reminder, with Dai Zhou's character ability, he will not fail to notice the strangeness of this case.

"Don't worry, Your Highness, I will handle this matter later." Seeing Li Ke's seriousness and affirmation, Deng Tongda agreed without daring to neglect.

"En! In this case, do you have anything to repay?" Li Ke
