Time Travel: I am the idle king Li Shen and Li Shimin in the Tang Dynasty
Chapter 963 Complain in front of the palace
Entering the main hall, everyone's eyes turned to Li Shen. Today is the small court meeting.
They are the brains behind each department.
Yesterday, the news that King Ji sent Zhao Guogong's son Changsun Huan to the Ministry of Punishment was quickly known to them.
Unexpectedly, King Ji would get into trouble with Zhao Guogong this time. Not long ago, he reported that the officials of the Changsun family were corrupt.
Two important officials were dismissed from office. Unexpectedly, the matter was not over yet. This time it was even more cruel. Even Zhao Guogong's son was sent to the Ministry of Punishment.
I heard that it was still a serious crime to betray the country through Tongfan, which made everyone feel strange and even more afraid of King Ji.
"I have seen Aye. Aye will enjoy immortal blessings forever and live as long as heaven." Li Shen saluted and said, this was a flattery that he thought about for a long time.
Sure enough, Li Shimin was very helpful after hearing it.
"Prince Ji, tell me, what brings you here today?" Li Shimin asked knowingly.
"Aye, I impeached Zhao Guogong for his incompetence in educating his son. His second son, Sun Huan, was a traitor to the country. He secretly met with the Goguryeo envoy, disobeyed the imperial edict, and sold contraband.
During the discussion, he was captured on the spot by Er, who heard with his own ears that he was discussing the purchase and sale of grain with the Goguryeo envoy.
Now Changsun Huanyi was escorted to the Ministry of Punishment by his son, asking Aye to investigate and eradicate this rebellion. "
Li Shen said as if claiming credit, Li Shimin frowned, attacking Goguryeo was his lifelong wish.
It was also his decree to prohibit the sale of a grain of grain to Goguryeo. To this end, a pirate group was formed to intercept it at sea.
It was indeed audacious for Changsun Huan to dare to defy the order and sell grain to Goguryeo.
He did not doubt what Li Shen said. Li Shen was the prince, was caught on the spot by Li Shen, and heard the conversation between them. It should be true.
Li Shen is always cautious in doing things, and he will not say anything without evidence.
"Come here, go to the prison of the Ministry of Punishments and bring Chang Sun Huan over." Li Shimin did not answer the call, but ordered someone to bring Chang Sun Huan over.
Regardless of whether what Li Shen said is true or false, since Li Shen said it in the court, as the emperor, he cannot ignore it and must give an explanation to the people below.
"Aye, this is a serious crime of collaborating with the enemy and treason. According to the law, it is to destroy..."
Li Shen was about to add fuel to the fire, but was interrupted by his father before he could finish speaking.
"Shut up, I don't want to hear what you say now." Li Shimin said with an angry look on his face.
Last time it was a serious crime of beheading, this time it was a serious crime of confiscating the house and exterminating the family. The older his son got, the more courageous he became.
Li Chengqian secretly laughed in his heart. This younger brother was really ruthless, and Aye was the only one who could control him.
Soon Changsun Huan was brought up.
"See Your Majesty." Changsun Huan stepped forward and bowed deeply.
"Changsun Huan, King Ji is suing you for betraying the country. King Ji, please say it again."
"Yes, Aye, Changsun Huan, you secretly met with the Goguryeo envoy, disobeyed the will, and sold prohibited items secretly.
You were captured on the spot by me, and both the people and the stolen goods were captured. I personally heard all the conversations you had with the Goguryeo envoy.
Do you think this is betraying the country and betraying the Tang Dynasty for personal gain? "
Li Shen repeated what he just said without changing his expression.
"His Royal Highness Prince Ji, some of your words are not nonsense. Your Majesty is here, and my eldest grandson family is loyal to Your Majesty. How could we do such a thing.
If you framed a meritorious official like this, then I will sue you for framing a minister. "
Duke Zhao's face turned dark immediately. Did King Ji want his eldest grandson's family to be wiped out?
Treason and treason are both serious crimes and cannot be admitted under any circumstances.
"Hey~~ Duke Zhao, don't say this in a hurry. You should ask Changsun Huan first.
Ask clearly if this is a frame-up by this king. "
Li Shen was smiling and not nervous at all.
"Huan'er, what King Ji said is the truth. You don't have to be afraid that your father will decide everything. Just tell the truth."
Although he knew the answer, Changsun Wuji still wanted to argue, because it was just King Ji's one-sided words.
"Son..." Changsun Huan was about to speak when Li Shen suddenly said:
"Changsun Huan, please think carefully. This is the Taiji Hall. Your Majesty and the ministers are here. I will record what you say and use it as evidence before the court.
If you lie, you will not only be guilty of betraying the country, but also guilty of deceiving the emperor, and deceiving the emperor is also a capital crime.
You need to think clearly. "
Changsun Huan was stunned by Li Shen's words, and then hesitated. Seeing this situation, Changsun Wuji felt disappointed.
The other ministers also shook their heads secretly. Changsun Huan's psychological quality was too poor.
Li Shen was frightened back by his words. No one could tell that what King Ji said was true.
Changsun Wuji knew it was over. Although his son really wanted to sell grain to Goguryeo privately, he hadn't sold it yet?
As long as Changsun Huan refuses to admit it, he will still think of ways to defend Changsun Huan, but now...sigh~~~~, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
However, he still saluted Li Shimin and said:
"Your Majesty, since His Highness Prince Ji has said it, then please ask Prince Ji to provide substantial evidence. Don't rely solely on His Highness Prince Ji's words in everything."
"Yes, that makes sense. Li Shen, do you have any evidence?"
Li Shimin nodded. He also saw Chang Sun Huan's hesitation and knew that this matter could not go away.
He couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He knew in his heart that Changsun Huan must have fallen into his son's trap.
He didn't know exactly how to operate it, but how could he have the courage based on Changsun Huan alone.
"Yes, Aye, please see, this is the conversation he had with the Goguryeo envoy at that time, and it was written down word for word.
There is also Changsun Huan's own signature and seal. "
Li Shen took out the piece of paper and handed it over.
Wang De came down and took it, opened it and handed it to Li Shimin.
Li Shimin read it carefully, and then motioned to Wang De to hand it to Changsun Wuji to read.
After Changsun Wuji took it, he read it word for word, trying to see if there were any loopholes.
When he finally saw Chang Sun Huan's signature, his hands trembled with anger, and he secretly cursed his son's stupidity.
Even if you commit such a serious crime as decapitation, you cannot admit it easily.
"Snapped!!"
Changsun Wuji rounded his arms and slapped Changsun Huan hard, making Li Shen who was standing next to him tremble in fear.
Damn it~! I thought they were going to hit me, Li Shen thought to himself.
"Treason, you actually did such a treasonous thing. How did I usually teach you to be loyal to the emperor, patriotism, and loyal to His Majesty? Have you forgotten?"
Changsun Huan's mouth bled from the slap and he collapsed to the ground. The five clearly visible finger prints on his face slowly swelled up.
"Aye, King Ji forced me to sign this, otherwise he would take off my clothes and parade me through the streets."
Changsun Huan wailed on the ground.
"Your Highness Prince Ji, I don't know if this is true." Changsun Wuji turned around with a serious face.
"Why, are you suspecting that it was me who forced you? Haha, don't worry, I still have evidence." Li Shen had already thought of this.
