Zhenguan Xiaoxian Wang Li Shen Li Shimin
Chapter 1303 Li Shen is very conflicted
In the hall, Wang De did not expect that the young prince, who had just been beaten, would still be so arrogant, and he could not help but look at Li Shimin.
Li Shimin just snorted and said nothing more.
Wang De then smiled and agreed:
"This old servant will pour tea for His Royal Highness Prince Ji."
As he said this, he poured himself a cup of tea and ran down to hand it to Li Shen.
Li Shen took the tea and glanced at Wang De. It was this old man who grabbed him and beat him several times just now.
He drank a cup of tea and said loudly:
"Aye, I'm reporting that Wang De has received a lot of benefits, privately accepted bribes, and committed corruption and abuse of power."
"Uh......"
Wang De was a little confused. This young prince still held a grudge and turned against someone without warning.
“Okay, let’s get down to business. Why did you target those two Wang family officials?
Do you have a grudge against Wang Clan of Langya?"
Li Shimin waved his hand and Wang De retreated.
Wang De had already made the matter clear to Li Shimin, and Li Shimin knew everything.
The two had been master and servant for many years, so trust was not a problem, otherwise why would Li Shimin entrust his beloved life to Wang De.
Li Shen filed the complaint on a whim.
“Your Highness, I have no grudge against Wang Clan of Langya. It’s just that their daughter beat up a retired guard of Prince Ji’s mansion.
I just want to seek justice for them.”
At that moment, Li Shen told Li Shimin everything that Ma Wei had told him.
Why was he beaten? How arrogant and domineering he was? Heizi was seriously injured until the government made a small matter.
There are causes and consequences.
Li Shimin frowned when he heard this.
This was beyond Li Shimin's expectation. He originally thought that Li Shen had some feud with Wang Shi of Langya, but he didn't expect that it was just for a guard, and a guard who had retreated.
In Li Shimin's view, this matter was just a trivial matter.
He didn't understand why Li Shen had to make such a big fuss and implicate the court officials.
Is it because this guard is from Prince Ji’s Mansion?
"Father, this is what happened. The eldest daughter of the Wang family was too arrogant. I think she is used to bullying others in the local area.
She has powerful forces behind her that allow her to act recklessly, and even the government offices seek her protection.
I think this is definitely not the first time for this woman. Judging from his style of doing things, he must have done a lot of bad things in the past.
So I just wanted to teach her a lesson.”
After Li Shen finished speaking, he waited quietly for his father's reaction.
"You beat up two imperial officials just for a retired guard?"
Li Shimin looked at Li Shen and asked seriously.
"Yes!"
Li Shen nodded firmly.
"Nonsense!"
Li Shimin shouted angrily.
“If you want justice for this matter, you can send someone to inform Wang Clan of Langya. With your current strength, the Wang Clan will definitely come to apologize.
But why did you involve the imperial court and beat up an imperial official? "
"Why? For justice, of course!"
Li Shen put away his flattering smile and looked serious.
Li Shimin was stunned. It was the first time that Li Shen spoke to him so seriously.
"I know that Aye thinks this is just a trivial matter. Compared with the stability of the Tang Dynasty and the face of the court, it is completely insignificant.
But it’s different for me. Heizi is a retired guard from Prince Ji’s Mansion. He has been a source of misunderstanding to me for five years.
He has risked his life several times to protect me.
Although he has retired now, his contributions remain.
This matter was indeed handled in accordance with the law, but I am not satisfied. I cannot let Heizi suffer this injustice in vain.
Since the imperial court doesn't care, I'll take care of it myself, and by the way, punish these arrogant and domineering nobles.
Let them know that our Tang Dynasty not only has laws, but also virtues."
Li Shen's expression was serious and his tone was firm, without any trace of the cowardice he had just shown.
His eyes were full of determination.
It was the first time that Wang De had seen Prince Ji like this. In his impression, Prince Ji was always laughing and making unreasonable demands in front of His Majesty.
Even if I am unwilling, I will nod and agree to what His Majesty says.
But this time, Prince Ji actually refuted Your Majesty, and his attitude was so tough.
Li Shimin stared at Li Shen, and he could hear anger in Li Shen's words.
He didn't quite understand why Li Shen would take revenge on the Wang family when it was just a guard who was beaten and no one was killed.
Is it to win people's hearts?
"Old Ten, do you have any thoughts about the court's laws? Do you think the laws are unfair?"
Li Shimin also asked with a familiar look, the Zhenguan Code was compiled based on the Wude Code.
He had read every clause and found nothing wrong with them.
When Li Shen heard Li Shimin's question, he shook his head without hesitation;
"I don't have any thoughts, and I don't feel it's unfair."
Unless you are crazy, you have the idea that you are the beneficiary of the law and the largest privileged class in the Tang Dynasty.
Unless I am mentally ill, I would never do such a thing.
"So what are you complaining about?"
After hearing Li Shen's answer, Li Shimin asked unhappily.
Since you think the law is fair, why are you still complaining here?
"Oh~~~"
Li Shen sighed deeply. In fact, he didn’t know why he was doing this.
He felt that it was unfair for Heizi to be beaten and that the law should not rule like this, but since he was a beneficiary of the law, he was unwilling to change it.
Li Shen's current mental state was to be in a dilemma.
"I just feel that this matter is very unfair to Heizi, perhaps because Heizi is my bodyguard,
Or maybe only when people stand at the highest point will they point fingers at things below.
Aye, I don't have any idea, I just want to seek justice for Heizi and teach the daughter of the Wang family a lesson.
Tell them not to be too arrogant, this Tang Dynasty is my Li family's Tang Dynasty."
To be honest, Li Shen himself is also very conflicted, just like the videos he watched in his previous life, all of which were full of hatred towards the rich, hatred towards officials, hatred towards the police, and even hatred towards security guards.
Whenever you see a video like this, even before you finish watching it, no matter whose reason is, you should stand on the moral high ground and criticize these people.
Never consider rules, laws, or morals.
But when I encounter such a thing, I feel that I am doing the right thing.
Li Shen is like this now. He enjoys privileges, but feels that these privileges are unfair.
"Okay, I know what you mean, but what you did this time was a bit extreme.
Even if you encounter injustice, if you intervene with your status as a prince, you will get the results you want.
You have indeed won in the court today, which also means that my royal family has won a round of the game with all the officials.
But have you ever thought that your behavior today will make all the officials fearful?
If things go wrong, they may very well demand changes to the law to reduce the power of the royal family.
By then, my royal status will be affected."
Speaking of this, Li Shimin was somewhat worried.
(This article is not targeted, it is just my own feeling, for example, when you go to a place to do business and queue up, you see VIP first.
I felt uncomfortable at the time and cursed very harshly. What was the right for them to do things?
It wasn’t until I became a VIP that I felt it wasn’t unfair.)
