Datang: Activate the combat merit system at the beginning

The next day.

Morning above.

Li Er told the ministers that he was going to make Li Zhi the crown prince.

Hearing this news, all the ministers were surprised.

Even Changsun Wuji and other ministers who supported Li Zhi as the crown prince were surprised.

They thought that Li Zhi had no chance to establish a reserve, but they didn't expect a big change in the matter.

Headed by Changsun Wuji, the ministers who supported Li Zhi as the crown prince immediately handed over their hands and shouted that your majesty is wise.

The ministers who supported the establishment of Li Tai as the crown prince spoke one after another and expressed their opposition.

The ministers who supported Li Ke as the crown prince also opposed it.

In front of Li Er, the ministers of the three factions quarreled in the Hall of Liangyi.

Li Er seemed to have expected such a situation, but frowned slightly.

Seeing that they were arguing, Li Er roared and told everyone to quiet down.

The ministers gradually quieted down.

"I have considered this matter carefully, and I believe that King Jin is the best candidate to become the crown prince." Li Er said with a straight face.

Liu Ji started by playing:
"Your Majesty, I think it's more suitable for King Wei to be crown prince!"

Xiao Yu hurriedly said:
"Your Majesty, it is more appropriate to make King Wu the crown prince!"

The other ministers spoke out again, speaking for the prince they supported.

"Your Majesty, I have something to announce."

At this time, Sun Fujia, the Minister of Dali Temple, came out to play.

The eyes of Li Er and the others immediately shifted to Sun Fujia.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, yesterday the former prince suddenly wanted to see the minister and complained to the minister."

Sun Fujia said neither humble nor overbearing.

"The person the former crown prince wants to sue is King Wei.

The former prince sued the king of Wei for a long time to fight for the crown prince, so he forced the former prince to plot against him. "

"Master Dali, do you know what you are talking about?"

Li Er's tone sank.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the minister's statement is true. Your Majesty can summon the former prince in person and ask him clearly." Sun Fujia said firmly.

Li Er frowned.

There was a commotion among those ministers.

"Report to Your Majesty, General Wei Hao of Zuo Xiaowei has an audience!"

At this time, a servant came in to report.

Why did Wei Hao want to face the saint?
An hour ago, he left the palace and went home to rest.

Why did you come to see me again?

There must be something urgent.

However, now I am dealing with the establishment of the reserve, and there is no delay.

"General Wei, what do you want to see me for?"

Li Er asked the servant calmly.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, General Wei said that it is about King Wei."

Hearing that it was about King Wei, many ministers showed doubts.

"Announce him in!"

"promise!"

The ministers who supported Li Tai looked at each other.

Wei Hao's sudden meeting with Li Tai was probably related to Li Tai's affairs, which might be detrimental to Li Tai.

They all knew that the relationship between Wei Hao and Li Tai was not good.

Soon, Wei Hao strode into the hall.

He wasn't on duty today, and Li Er asked him to go home and rest after his shift in the morning.

Not long after returning home, Feng Shishi brought him a bamboo tube the size of a thumb.

Feng Shishi told Wei Hao that someone knocked on the door early in the morning and gave him a small bamboo tube and asked him to give it to Wei Hao.

Wei Hao poured out a note from the small bamboo tube.

What was written on the note was to invite Wei Hao to meet.

Wei Hao went to see that person according to the address written on the note, and then obtained evidence of Li Tai's crimes from that person.

After performing the ceremony of the monarch and ministers, Wei Hao didn't talk too much nonsense, and went straight to the topic:
"Reporting to Your Majesty, I just got the news that the King of Wei had secretly trained people from the underground world of Guihuafang in Xishi City to be loyal to him."

As soon as this remark came out, many ministers were in an uproar.

Especially those ministers who supported Li Tai changed their faces.

"The king of Wei once intended to use the dead soldiers in Guihuafang to assassinate the former prince. Later, because the minister and General Su hunted down Ye Pia, they broke into the so-called underground world of Guihuafang, and accidentally destroyed King Wei's plan."

"The palace dog who is in charge of managing Guihuafang's so-called underground world belongs to King Wei."

"The reason why Gonggou dared to dominate Guihuafang is precisely because he has a backer behind him.

And his backer is the king of Wei. "

"Through the so-called underground world of Guihuafang, the king of Wei not only secretly cultivated the dead, but also took advantage of it to make a fortune, providing him with manpower and financial resources to compete for the position of the crown prince."

After hearing this, Li Er frowned.

Wei Hao dared to say these words in front of all the ministers, it was definitely not just talking nonsense.

"General Wei, is there any real evidence for what you said? You know, if there is no real evidence, you are slandering King Wei."

Liu Jie gritted his teeth and couldn't help making a sound.

"If there is no real evidence, I will not report to His Majesty here!"

Wei Hao glanced at Liu Ji and said disapprovingly.

The corner of Liu Ji's mouth twitched, and he swallowed back the words that came to his mouth.

He realized that if he continued to speak for the king of Wei, he would definitely get into trouble.

Those ministers who were still supporting Li Tai just now kept their mouths shut, not daring to speak for Li Tai anymore.

At this time, it is the best policy to protect yourself wisely.

Cen Wenwen, Liu Ji and others also knew a lot about what Li Tai did in private.

Wei Hao's words hit their point, and they didn't dare to refute for Li Tai.

Li Tai's private raising of a dead man in Guihuafang can be punished as a crime of treason.

If they spoke for Li Tai at this time, it would be tantamount to trapping themselves in it.

Although the last time Wei Hao and Su Lie broke into Guihuafang, they destroyed the underground world of Guihuafang, almost killed all the dead soldiers secretly cultivated by Li Tai, and Gonggou was also silenced, there is no direct evidence to prove that Li Tai is associated with the underground world of Guihuafang.

However, if you are not afraid of ten thousand, you are afraid of just in case.

If Wei Hao really had the real evidence to prove that Li Tai was related to the underground world of Guihuafang, then these ministers who supported Li Tai would also be inseparable.

"Wei Hao, do you have any real evidence?"

Li Er thought for a while, and said slowly.

"Report to Your Majesty, I have evidence."

Wei Hao said without hesitation.

After hearing this, Li Er became silent.

"Report to Your Majesty, I request Your Majesty to issue an order to thoroughly investigate the matter between King Wei and Guihuafang! Bring King Wei to trial!"

Changsun Wuji took the opportunity to play.

"Seconded!"

Many ministers immediately seconded.

Those ministers who supported Li Ke also expressed their support for ordering a thorough investigation of Li Tai.

Anyway, let's take the opportunity to overthrow Li Tai first.

If Li Tai is brought down, there will be one less competitor, and he will be able to deal with Li Zhi with all his strength in the future.

Those ministers who supported Li Tai remained silent so as not to add fuel to the fire.

Seeing that most of the ministers demanded a thorough investigation of Li Tai, Li Er hesitated for a moment, and could only order:
"Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Xiao Yu, Li Ji, Su Fujia, and Cen Wenwen are ordered to thoroughly investigate this matter immediately!"

"promise!"

These ministers bowed to accept the order.

Among the ministers appointed by Li Er, they made good adjustments.

These ministers each represent their own supporters and at the same time remain neutral.

In doing so, they can restrain each other in the process of investigating and interrogating Li Tai, and they can't take the opportunity to bend the law for personal gain.
