Zhuangda Tang Juvenile Lang

Chapter 59 Believe it or not, I believe it anyway
In the early morning of the next day, the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs really debated the case of Qin Feng's assassination.With a pair of bloodshot eyes on his head, Wei Zheng was the first to attack: "Your Majesty, last night, Zuo Wuwei Qin Zhonglang was assassinated in the street. Based on the evidence, the ministers have found out that the mastermind behind the scenes is Zhao Guogong's eldest son, Chang Sun Chong. Chang Sun Chong hired It is a crime to assassinate Qin Feng by someone; it is a crime to steal Zhao Guogong's seal by taking advantage of family affection; Committed concurrently, the crime is serious and unforgivable, and should be severely punished to serve as an example. It is the father's fault that Zhao Guogong's eldest Sun Wuji is not strict in discipline, and it is his fault that he lost his seal. Please the emperor punish Zhao Guogong's eldest Sun Wuji for lax discipline, crime of neglect of duty.

Li Shimin rubbed his swollen forehead, and said helplessly, "Wei Qing's family is just a matter between children, so there's no need to be so laborious!"

Even the majestic Ninth Five-Year Supreme, facing the upright Wei Zheng, Li Shimin felt guilty.According to Chang Sun Chong's crime, execution is not too much.Just considering the friendship between Empress Changsun and Changsun Wuji, Li Shimin, who intends to pervert the law for himself, is most afraid of Wei Zheng's entanglement.

Wei Zheng said sharply: "The emperor's words are wrong! Whether it is a dispute between the younger generation or not, I have no control over it, and I have no right to control it, but Chang Sun Chong hired murderers to commit crimes in the street, and used the guards and city patrols as tools for personal grievances. It is the law of the country, and the law is not merciful. No matter what the reason is, it can't change the fact that Chang Sun Chong committed a crime."

"Let me think about it."

Li Shimin's heart was bitter. Wei Zheng's words were true, and he also wanted to safeguard the dignity of the national law. Many of his excuses were false and could not withstand scrutiny and refutation.

Wei Zheng said without changing his face: "Your Majesty, the prince's crime is the same as that of the common people. Changsun Chong knows that he broke the law, so he should be punished with a higher level of crime. This trend cannot last, and this crime cannot be pardoned. Once Chang Sun Chong is pardoned, there will be countless grandson Chong. , What do we use to maintain the dignity of the country's laws. For example, Qin Feng held a grudge, and he also assassinated Changsun Chong, how would the emperor punish Qin Feng's crime? The final result is that you kill me, I kill you, At that time, the whole world will be affected by this. I would like to ask the emperor, how do you govern such a country? How can you set an example in front of the people of the world? Now, the people of the world are staring at the emperor. Are you governing according to the law? Forgiveness is an example for people all over the world to learn from.”

"Wei Aiqing..." Li Shimin was even more annoyed, but this time the object of his anger was not Wei Zheng, but the chief culprit - Changsun Chong.

Wei Zheng obviously wanted to punish Changsun Chong to death. As a father, Changsun Wuji looked scorched, but he was helpless.As Wei Zheng said, he himself is also responsible!My ass is not clean, so how dare I touch Li Shimin's bad head at this critical moment
What's more, Wei Zheng's stubborn temper is unknown to all civil and military courts. If you are in a wrong situation, you are asking for a dead end if you are arrogant with him.

"My humble minister, Kong Yingda, please play."

"Zunzuo!" Even Wei Zheng couldn't greet him, and Ye Yingda, who was also unreasonable, made Li Shimin's head grow bigger.

"Elder Sun Chong committed multiple crimes and should be severely punished. Please don't give up personal interests because of meritorious service. Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, such a bad thing has never happened. If everyone can kill people in the street because of private affairs, what is the law of the country, Datang Where is the discipline?"

Wei Zheng still said aggressively: "Your Majesty, what is the meaning of the existence of the law? What is the purpose of the existence of the law?"

"Of course why educate and restrain the people!" Li Shimin replied without even thinking about it.

"Okay, let me ask again, does Chang Sun Chong commit a capital crime? Does he violate the law of the country?"

"This..." Li Shimin didn't know how to answer.It has to be said that Li Shimin's broad-mindedness has reached a limit. Let alone the emperor, even ordinary people will probably lose their temper under such persecution.But his majestic king made Wei Zheng and Kong Yingda feel like he was training his grandson, without any temper.

"Qin Aiqing, Qin Feng is your son, now the murderer has been discovered, Qin Aiqing, what do you think?" Li Shimin saw that Qin Qiong was indifferent, so he came up with a misfortune, hoping to burn the fire on Qin Qiong.

Qin Qiong said: "Your Majesty, the law is nothing more than human feelings. I think this is the impulse of children, and it is not worth making a fuss. We have also been young, so we naturally know what kind of mood people are at this age? As for Mr. Wei, he said that we should govern I think the crime of the eldest grandson is even more unnecessary. I have worked with the eldest grandson for decades, and I know how he behaves. Besides, the eldest grandson is the emperor's nephew, and the youngest son is the emperor's son-in-law. It is said that this is the emperor's family matter, and the humble minister has no control over it, and has no right to control it."

Li Shimin laughed loudly and said: "Wei Aiqing, did you hear that? This is my family matter, and it's just my nephew and son-in-law playing around. There's no need to mention this matter, let's leave it at that. But capital crimes can be avoided, life crimes are hard to forgive, and I will punish Chang Sun Chong After thinking behind closed doors for three years, what does Wei Aiqing think?"

Wei Zheng ignored Li Shimin's attitude at all, and said indifferently: "Please don't abolish the government for personal reasons. Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, such a bad thing has never happened. If everyone can kill people because of private affairs, what is the law of the country? Where is Tang's discipline?"

"Your Majesty, I agree with Master Wei's statement, please punish the murderer severely." The gray-haired Kong Yingda echoed.

"This..." Li Shimin didn't know how to answer.

"I beg your Majesty to rectify the laws of the country!"

"Please, Your Majesty, rectify the laws of the country!"

"The emperor upholds the laws of the country!"

"Rectify the law of the country!"

"National Law"

……

There is no shortage of loyal and upright ministers in the Tang Dynasty, and literati come out to ask for orders.

Seeing the darkness under the steps, Li Shimin's head grew dizzy.

These people are all his vassals, and what they did was really for Datang's sake, and he didn't even have the right to get angry.At this moment, he was even envious of Yang Guang, the eloquent and stupid king. Yang Guang said that one is one, and that two is two. His style of doing things has always been whoever agrees and whoever opposes!
Those who agree will get promoted and get rich, those who oppose will exterminate the nine clans!
Unable to advance or retreat, Li Shimin always had the urge to scold his mother, and at the same time, he wished to find out Chang Sun Chong and beat him up violently.

"Your Majesty, Qin Feng, the second son of Duke Yi, seeks to see you!" Just as Li Shimin was in a dilemma, a voice that was no less than the sound of nature to him came from outside the hall.

"Xuan!" Li Shimin announced impatiently as if he had met a savior.

The emperor Li Shimin is really pitiful. He wanted to play with a bird. He met Wei Zheng abruptly. He was suffocated to death in his arms. He wanted to have fun, but Wei Zheng took the lead and jumped out to pick thorns. An emperor still depends on his subordinates. Acting with winks and being blackmailed by them, such an emperor is truly unique in all ages.

Qin Feng, who had been waiting outside the hall, naturally listened to Wei Zheng's words, and he even had reason to doubt whether Wei Zheng, who was Li Jiancheng's former aide, was deliberately provoking Li Shimin.

"Wei Chen pays respects to the emperor."

Li Shimin said: "Little Qin Aiqing, little Qin Aiqing, I and all the ministers are discussing your assassination. Mr. Wei Zhengwei has found out that Chang Sun Chong is the mastermind behind the scenes. Now, we are discussing how to convict Chang Sun Chong. Regarding this matter, Xiao Qin Aiqing is the one in the game, you are the most qualified to speak, tell me what's going on."

Qin Feng said: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

After saluting, he walked up to Wei Zheng, saluted respectfully, and said, "Master Wei, thank you for being so caring about the boy."

Wei Zheng helped Qin Feng up, and said in a harmonious voice: "Nephew, I'm too worried, not to mention that you were the one who was assassinated, even if it's an ordinary person, I will use my life to defend the dignity of the law."

"Master Wei is loyal to the country, and my nephew admires him."

Facing Li Shimin, Qin Feng said: "Your Majesty, this matter is not as complicated as everyone imagined, and it can be explained clearly in one sentence. Lord Wei, have you found out the origin of the two murderers?"

Wei Zheng said: "It's clear, it's two Jiangyang thieves."

"It was the series of incidents triggered by these two Jiangyang thieves. Generally speaking, this incident was a victory of my sincere cooperation with Chang Sun Chong. The two of us had no intention of knowing that these two Jiangyang thieves had sneaked into Chang'an, out of young aggressiveness. In our hearts, we didn't inform the elders, and the eldest grandson rushed forward and they came to kill me, and I thought I was good at martial arts, so I acted as the target to be assassinated. The person who caused harm to the country and the people was killed, so I still have credit for Chang Sun Chong and I. As for the team of patrolling soldiers who didn't know the young nephew, it is understandable that they misjudged the target. All in all, everyone thought things out It's too complicated, but it ignores the aggressiveness and impulsiveness of young people. As for the patrolling army, they mistakenly thought I was a murderer, and seeing that I had a murder weapon, they naturally showed no mercy."

To the old guys like Wei Zheng, Qin Feng's explanation was undoubtedly full of loopholes, but Qin Feng did it on purpose, he was not big enough to defend his enemies, he was just giving Li Shimin an excuse.And Li Shimin also needs an excuse, whether he is clumsy or not.

Wei Zheng heard black lines all over his head. He would believe this kind of explanation. He said dumbfoundedly: "Nephew, do you believe this statement?"

Qin Feng blinked his eyes, put on a cute expression and looked at Wei Zheng, who was staring wide-eyed, and shrugged his shoulders very Westernized: "The fact is that, whether you believe it or not, Uncle Wei, I believe it anyway. "

Silence... Silence never before...

All eyes in the hall were fixed on Qin Feng's face.

Li Shimin also looked at Qin Feng with a strange face, and laughed loudly: "Everyone heard the words of the sufferer! This case is closed, Changsun Chong is exempt from death, but life is hard to forgive. Although the intention is good, the law of the country is ruthless and cannot be tolerated." Just kidding, it was wrong for him to steal the seal privately, so the punishment remains the same, that is, after three years of contemplation behind closed doors, the grandson Wuji was negligent, and he was fined for one year of salary. Since Qin Feng is also a person in the case, but he killed two Jiangyang thieves after all , and he is still a child, I will punish him to compose a poem on the spot."

Li Shimin looked at Qin Feng happily and said, "Qin Feng, can you accept the punishment?"

"The grassroots accept the punishment!"

Qin Feng looked at Li Shimin's shameless appearance, and said: "Your Majesty, come up with a theme!"

"Oh? Are you sure?" Seeing Qin Feng's confident look, Li Shimin regained his interest. Once the theme is set, he has much less room to play.

Qin Feng patted his chest, and said proudly: "If a man speaks a word, it's hard to chase him!"

This time, everyone became interested.

Qin Shubao also watched his son's performance with a smile on his face.

"Young people are the future of the empire and the spring of the country. You can use the scenery of spring as the theme and give you a stick of incense time to compose a song on the spot."

"Your majesty, you are too contemptuous of people! It takes so long for such a simple poem?"

"Oh? Then tell me." Li Shimin slowly picked up the teacup, ready to serve tea with poems.

"Please listen up, gentlemen, and let the boy speak."

Li Shimin nodded, put the teacup to his mouth, and took a sip enjoying it.

"Chun Mian didn't wake up, mosquito bites everywhere, with a slap, I don't know how many people died."

"Fight!" Li Shimin spit out the tea in his mouth in one breath, and said angrily: "Stinky boy, what kind of nonsense poetry are you talking about!"

"Ha ha"

In an instant, the entire hall became a sea of ​​joy.

The generals laughed even more exaggeratedly.

Qin Feng said: "Slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue, I think the atmosphere is too serious! I deliberately made everyone laugh, well, the real poem is here: Spring sleep does not wake up, I hear birds singing everywhere, the sound of wind and rain at night, flowers fall and know How many."

"Okay, great poem!"

As the eldest disciple of the Qin Clan, Kong Yingda was naturally the first to praise his master.I only heard his comment: "Mr. This poem exaggerates an intoxicating artistic conception of spring, which highlights the vitality of the spring morning." When I want to wake up, I think back to the sound of the wind and rain last night, so I think that there must be many falling flowers in the past. The auditory image "Sound of Wind and Rain" here is by no means a sad "heart-breaking sound", but a rich "heart-breaking sound" "Renewal song". This poem is ordinary in language, but it contains endless art, and it is a poem that has been recited through the ages."

"Mr. Kong is right!"

"Mr. Qin's poems are concise and far-reaching, and they are really rare masterpieces in a century."

The poem "Spring Dawn" has won endless praise from literati.
