Chapter 104

Sure enough, as Cheng Tieniu and his wife expected, when they left early the next morning.The grain has been replaced with good grain, and there is not a grain of moldy grain.

Cheng Tieniu and Xue Rengui thanked Li Xiaochang and the squires of Lizhou City again and again.Only then did he lead the team away.Watching the team slowly going away, Li Xiaochang's fists were clenched and rattled.

"Damn Li Tai, you actually let this king suffer several times in a row. The king has recorded this account, and sooner or later he will settle it with him." Li Xiaochang said angrily.

"My lord, what happened last night was just that the sky didn't follow people's wishes. But this also created a better opportunity for my lord, and I can ruthlessly tell the emperor about Li Tai." The red shadow Li Xiaochang beside him said.

After hearing Jiying's words, Li Xiaochang couldn't help but nodded.After all, it wasn't him who lost this time, but the aristocratic families in the city.Those grains were not exchanged by him, Li Xiaochang, but the blood of those aristocratic families.

Afterwards, Li Xiaochang immediately ordered people to write down all the actions of Li Tai's imperial army of the king of Wei on the memorial.He ordered people to send it to Chang'an City at an expedited speed of [-] miles and hand it over to Li Shimin for a preview.

……

On the Jinluan Hall of the Tai Chi Palace in Chang'an City, Li Shimin sits on a dragon chair.The eunuch next to him said to everyone: "If there is something to do, go to work and play early, and if there is nothing to do, roll the curtain and retreat."

At this moment, Pei Ji came out of the shift and said: "My Majesty, last night I received a memorial from the governor of Lizhou. The memorial said that the imperial army of the king of Wei was lax in military discipline and caused a lot of trouble in Lizhou city."

After hearing Pei Ji's words, Li Shimin said, "I don't know what happened to Wei Wang's imperial army in Lizhou City."

"Reporting to the emperor, the vanguard of King Wei's imperial army arrived in Lizhou City first, but at night they thought the food in the barracks was not good..." Then Pei Ji read out the memorial in public.

The memorial shows how Luo Huan and Luo Tong made a big fuss in the casino restaurant, how Li Tai indulged his subordinates, and covered up the mistakes made by his subordinates who did not recognize his vanguard.And how to use Wei Wang's status to make those who suffered the loss angry and dare not speak.

Then he talked about how the supply troops of the imperial army of the king of Wei, after entering the city, forcibly demanded military food from the aristocratic family.After asking for the rations, he got drunk again, causing the rations to be almost burned.If he hadn't sent someone to protect the general food, it would have been a big mistake by now.

Hearing these clauses, Li Shimin couldn't help being furious.He yelled directly at the Golden Luan Hall: "Unfilial bastard, I thought he could do his best for the country this time. I didn't expect to cause so many things."

Seeing that Li Shimin was furious, Wang Yushi came out and said, "Your Majesty, I feel that King Wei is not suitable for this bandit suppression operation. I also ask the emperor to issue an order to recall him. Li Xiaochang, the governor of Lizhou, will send troops to suppress the bandits instead."

As soon as Wang Yushi finished speaking, several people came forward to speak to Li Shimin.I hope that Li Shimin can exchange Li Xiaochang, the governor of Lizhou, for the king of Wei.

After hearing what everyone said, Li Shimin looked at Prime Minister Pei Ji, and then asked, "I don't know how the Prime Minister thinks this matter should be handled."

"Your Majesty, the King of Wei is not far from the land of Bashu now. If the King of Wei is transferred back at this time, I am afraid that too much time will be wasted. It is better for the Emperor to order Li Xiaochang, the governor of Lizhou, to be ready to meet the King of Wei at any time." Pei Ji said. To Li Shimin.

Hearing Pei Ji's words, Li Shimin couldn't help but nodded.Then the decree said: "Order Li Xiaochang, the governor of Lizhou, to rectify the army and horses, and prepare to send troops to meet the king of Wei at any time. Order Li Tai, the king of Wei, to return to Beijing quickly after suppressing the bandits, and not to stay in the place privately."

After Li Shimin issued the imperial edict, he flung his sleeves and left the Jinluan Hall.You don't need to ask to know that Li Shimin at this time is already very angry.

After Li Shimin left, everyone also left the Golden Luan Hall in twos and threes.Wang Yushi came to Pei Ji's side in two or three steps, and whispered to Pei Ji, "Prime Minister Pei doesn't know why he wants to speak for Li Tai today."

"The old man didn't speak for Tai." Pei Ji said to Wang Yushi with a smile on his face.

"Originally, this incident allowed the emperor to transfer Li Tai back to the capital. But Prime Minister Pei, you support Li Tai to continue suppressing the bandits. Isn't this a disguised support for Li Tai?" Wang Yushi asked Pei Ji.

"Based on Li Tai's Imperial Army of the King of Wei, he still wants to suppress the bandits in Bashu. It is estimated that the entire army will be wiped out before reaching their lair." After Pei Ji finished speaking, he laughed and left.

At this time, Wang Yushi also understood what Pei Ji meant.That is to use the thieves from Bashu to wipe out the King Wei's imperial army in Li Tai's hands.It was even possible for Li Tai to stay there too.

……

Li Shimin, who returned to the harem, still did not calm down.His angry expression remained on his face.Even the maids serving on the side were very cautious.I was afraid that I would accidentally become Li Shimin's punching bag.

But at this moment, Changsun Wugou walked in.Seeing Li Shimin's angry expression, he waved to those court ladies and eunuchs.Those court ladies and eunuchs quickly left Li Shimin's study room as if they were being pardoned.

"Second brother, I don't know what happened in the court. You are so angry." Changsun Wugou asked Li Shimin while taking off the dragon robe for Li Shimin.

"It's not that bastard Qingque, who doesn't make people calm down when he isn't by my side." Li Shimin said angrily to his elder grandson Wugou.

"Did he cause some trouble again? Someone brought a lawsuit to you." Changsun Wugou asked Li Shimin with a smile.

After changing the dragon robe, Li Shimin told his eldest grandson Wugou about the incident in the Golden Luan Hall in detail.While talking, he kept scolding Li Tai, he was just a troublemaker.

"Second brother, don't listen to those people's one-sided words. Maybe there is something unknown about it. It's not too late to make a decision after Qingque comes back and asks." Changsun Wugou said to Li Shimin.

"You know that you are protecting this brat. You don't need to ask, I also know that these things definitely happened. And that brat did it on purpose." Li Shimin looked at his grandson Wugou and said.

Before Changsun Wugou could say anything, a eunuch came in and said to Li Shimin, "Report to the Emperor, the crown prince is here."

Hearing the arrival of the crown prince Li Chengqian, Li Shimin said, "Let the crown prince come in."

Not long after, Li Chengqian walked into Li Shimin's study, first gave Li Shimin and his eldest grandson Wugou, and then performed the grand ceremony of the emperor and his ministers.Standing up, he said to Li Shimin: "Father, there is a sentence in the court this morning that I didn't say. I don't know if I should say it or not."

Although he didn't know what Li Chengqian was going to say, Li Shimin felt that it must have something to do with Li Tai.It's just that I don't know whether Li Chengqian came to add insult to injury, or to say good things for Li Tai.But you don't need to ask to know that the former is more likely.
