Chapter 140 Celebrities, Dogs Are Worse
When Li Wenbin said this, he deliberately slowed down, looked at Wang Ruiyang with malicious eyes, and continued.
"The celebrity's father burst into tears: Erdier, why did I send you to be a bird celebrity? It turned out that it was not as good as other people's eggs!"
"puff!"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
The hall of Xiande burst into laughter, Cheng Yaojin, Yu Chigong and others were already out of breath from laughing.
Although Li Shimin knew that he shouldn't laugh, he couldn't help it, his face turned into a bun.
"Cough cough cough...His Royal Highness Qin Wang, please don't be so rude in front of His Majesty."
Fang Xuanling's old face turned red, but as a prime minister, he still reluctantly spoke.
"Yes, what Fang Xiang said is true."
Li Wenbin was as good as he was, so he kept his mouth shut.
"puff!"
At this moment, there was a muffled noise from the hall. Li Wenbin turned his head and saw that it was Wang Ruiyang who was so angry that he vomited blood.
Heh, this mouthful of blood is quite like piercing the intestines of the king of kings.
"It's not good, Master Wang vomited blood, quickly take him to the imperial hospital and hand him over to the imperial physician for diagnosis and treatment."
Several guards in the hall quickly came to carry Wang Ruiyang, but when they remembered what Li Wenbin had just said about Wang Ruiyang, they couldn't help laughing, and almost threw Wang Ruiyang to the ground.
After Li Wenbin made such a fuss, the criticisms against him naturally came to nothing.
One was stripped of his past, removed from all official positions and sent to Yazhou; the other was so angry that he vomited blood.
Looking at the behavior of old Wang Mingshi, it is estimated that there is more danger than good luck. In such a situation, who would dare to live or die?
A few censors from the powerful family retreated, even if the proprietors gave winks, they just lowered their heads and pretended not to see it.
The Cui family of Boling stepped forward at this time - they and Li Wenbin have a deep blood feud, and they will not back down no matter what.
"Report to Your Majesty, I have a copy."
It was Cui Yu, the doctor of the Ministry of Officials, who spoke: "Your Majesty, I impeached Li Wenbin, King of Qin, and carried out mass killings in Youzhou. He beheaded 420 eight people at one time, which is contrary to Your Majesty's policy of governing the country with benevolence."
"Your Majesty, please punish Qin Wang Li Wenbin severely."
"The minister seconded the proposal."
"The minister seconded the proposal."
"The minister seconded the proposal."
……
More than 20 people stood up at once, all of whom were officials of the Boling Cui family in the court.
The biggest one is Cui Tongjian, the servant of the Ministry of Rites at the fourth rank, and the youngest is Wailang, a member of the Ministry of Industry at the lower rank.
These more than 20 people stood up together, which created a great momentum and brought courage to the officials of several other powerful families.
"The minister also seconded the proposal."
Another dozen people stood up and demanded that Li Shimin severely punish Li Wenbin.
Is there any problem with what Li Wenbin did?
In fact, there are. Although he is the chief military officer of the Hedong and Hebei provinces, he can be arrested by the military and the government, but he killed more than 400 people at once, which is really a bit of an overreach.
It would be fine if he had the Son of Heaven Sword or fake Jieyue given by Li Shimin in advance, but Li Shimin was away on an expedition, and the crusade against Li Ai was Li Wenbin's own decision.
So the Boling Cui family deliberately put this impeachment at this time, and it can be said that it was ruthless and accurate.
Before Li Wenbin could answer, a messenger from Hongling rushed in from the outside: "Locust plagues are happening everywhere in Guanzhong, and it has spread to more than forty prefectures!"
This is a first-class event. Guanzhong is the essence of the Tang Dynasty. There are more than half of the population here. If something goes wrong, the country will be shaken.
Cui Yu was taken aback for a moment, and then overjoyed: "Your Majesty, this is God's warning. It is clear that there are traitors in the court!"
"Your Majesty, please find out who this treacherous minister is, and the plague of locusts will naturally subside after Ming Zhengdian's punishment!"
"Your Majesty, please find out the traitors, so as to appease the wrath of heaven!"
Beginning with Dong Zhongshu in the Han Dynasty, he came up with a theory of the interaction between heaven and man.
If the emperor in the world did something wrong, or there were treacherous ministers in the court, the heaven would send disasters as a warning.
In this situation, at the beginning, the emperor was required to issue an imperial edict, but later it was changed to let Sangong take the blame.
Whenever there is any disaster, the three men will take turns to resign, and tell the sky, I was wrong, I resigned, please stop making trouble.
At this time, the locust plague in Guanzhong is a timely rain for Cui Yu: God has said, Your Majesty, you have a big treacherous minister by your side!
As for who the treacherous officials are, do you need to say more?
Hmph, Li Wenbin, this is God's plan to destroy you, let's see how you struggle!
What he didn't know was that the matter of Hong Ling's messenger going to the palace to report the locust plague at this time was decided by Li Shimin and Li Wenbin.
Li Wenbin has been waiting for this day for a long time, waiting for the locust plague to break out, so that he can use this excuse to clean up the remaining families.
"Your Majesty, I beg you to help Tang Dynasty to deal with the locust plague in Guanzhong! Your Majesty please agree."
"Nonsense, this plague of locusts is a disaster from heaven, unless the treacherous ministers are eliminated, it cannot be wiped out!"
It was Cui Tongjian who spoke, and it was perfectly appropriate for him to say this as the minister of the Ministry of Rites. He seemed to force Li Shimin to abolish Li Wenbin's title now and demote him to a commoner.
"It's funny, the locust plague is caused by treacherous ministers? Who was the treacherous minister who caused the two locust plagues in the first year of Takede and the fourth year of Takede?"
"Also, who were the traitors during the locust plague during the period of Emperor Wen of the former Sui Dynasty?"
"I've seen through you people, and if you encounter something big, you'll talk to God."
"Please, God is very busy and doesn't have time to care about so much."
"Shut up, disrespect to God is disrespect!"
"Hmph, this king is not disrespectful to God, Cui Shilang, please don't label this king, this king is just discussing the facts."
"As long as there are natural disasters, it must be because there are traitors in the court. This is what the sage Dong Zhongshu said in the theory of induction between heaven and man."
"Oh? Dong Zhongshu? Then I want to ask Cui Shilang, what happened to the locust plague before Dong Zhongshu researched the induction between heaven and man?"
"Could it be that as soon as this theory emerged, what was originally a natural disaster suddenly became a man-made disaster?"
"I don't want to think about how to solve the locust plague, but here I say boldly that there are treacherous officials in the court. This king sees you as lazy and slack in politics!"
Li Wenbin's words were very blunt, and he scolded Cui Tongjian and other high-ranking officials bloody, until Cui Shilang almost fainted out of anger.
"King Qin, you said you could solve the locust plague, but is it true?"
"Of course, this king will not lie if he says he can do it. Doesn't Mr. Cui believe what this king says?"
"This... this is a big matter. For the sake of the common people, the officials really can't believe it just based on King Qin's words."
"The celebrity's father burst into tears: Erdier, why did I send you to be a bird celebrity? It turned out that it was not as good as other people's eggs!"
"puff!"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
The hall of Xiande burst into laughter, Cheng Yaojin, Yu Chigong and others were already out of breath from laughing.
