"Second brother is right, Gao Ming is indeed born smart, fearless in the face of danger, and has the air of an emperor! It's just a matter of training!"

"Guanyin maidservant, you think so too! That's excellent!"

This made Li Shimin very happy, and made all the ministers present very curious. In their eyes, what happened to His Majesty? This is impeaching the prince. Is he still in such a good mood?

But before people wondered, it was Zhang Liang who spoke at this time.

"Ministers! Please listen up!

His Royal Highness the five crimes:

Corruption and perverting the law are the number one; according to some time ago, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince built a big market in Anlefang, and built a road, which cost a total of [-] yuan!How much is the crown prince's annual salary?Five thousand coins, where did he come from? "

As soon as the first point came out, everyone was in an uproar, but Li Chengqian didn't intend to refute, but let him continue.

"To frame a good minister, it is second; everyone present must have been coerced and lured by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"

As soon as he said that, someone came out and said: "Yes! The prince has indeed done this!"

Xu Jingzong also came out and said: "My demotion is also because of the prince!"

……

Zhang Liang looked at Li Chengqian coldly, but he still had no voice to refute.

"Extreme extravagance is the third; the decoration of the entire East Palace is very grand, almost more luxurious than the Tai Chi Palace, and in summer, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince uses a lot of ice, you know ice is a very rare thing! He actually enjoys a large amount of ice all to himself, does this count as extravagance?!"

As soon as these words came out, there was indeed some reason, because people's reactions have already told everyone that this incident cannot be faked!

Li Chengqian still had an indifferent attitude.

Zhang Liang thought that Li Chengqian had nothing to say, and said, "Heartless and unrighteous, it is the fourth, His Royal Highness actually asked his younger brothers to do things they didn't want to do for his own selfishness!"

"Calling openly, ignoring the court! It is the fifth! Everyone has seen this, and I don't think I need to say more, everyone understands. You said that the five crimes are the same, shouldn't it be impeached!? "

As soon as these words came out, it really caused a sensation among people, because what Zhang Liang said seemed to be not wrong at all, and there was nothing wrong with it.

The ministers all wanted to see how Li Chengqian would react, so people all focused their attention on Li Chengqian.

However, he acted indifferent and unhurried, which made people very anxious.

Chapter 173 I'm going to refute (second more)

Zhang Liang shouted: "His Royal Highness, do you think what I said is right? You can refute, but every item here is enough to make you unable to explain clearly."

Xu Jingzong incited: "Ministers, how do you feel when you see the prince doing this? Are you not afraid that the Tang Dynasty will be destroyed in his hands? These five crimes are all directed at the hearts of the people! Xu Jingzong asks you to stand Come out and impeach the prince! We need a more enlightened prince, not like him!"

Wang Guifei sneered all the time, this was what she wanted to see.

Most of the ministers were smart people, so they chose to remain silent, after all, Li Chengqian hadn't spoken yet.

They were waiting for his rebuttal.

But some people couldn't bear it and stood up.

"I think what Zhang Liang said is right, we don't need a prince who behaves like this!"

"I also agree with the impeachment of the prince!"

Roughly one in five joined the ranks of impeachment.

But seeing Li Chengqian was still unmoved, feeling that he didn't care at all.

On the contrary, Fang Xuanling pointed at these ministers who joined the ranks of impeachment, and just cursed.

"You unreasonable ministers are really taking the salary of the Tang Dynasty in vain! Are you unable to restrain yourself before His Royal Highness has refuted it? Are you taking advantage of it?"

"Xing Guogong, we are just expressing our opinions, which is what a minister should do!"

Fang Xuanling wanted to say something.

Suddenly, Li Chengqian patted and shouted: "Okay! It's really wonderful, is there any more?"

This caused Wang Guifei to interrupt directly:

"Your Majesty! You see how the prince despises the court!"

Unexpectedly, Li Shimin said: "I don't think so!"

Li Chengqian has already figured out Li Shimin's temper, as long as he doesn't go too far, as long as he can say one, two, three, four, Li Shimin appreciates him.

If they are not father and son, it is probably okay to be brothers.

That's why he dared to behave like this again and again.

The ministers felt that they were so angry, but there was nothing they could do. After all, Li Shimin was against him, so they had to use evidence to bring him down. That's why Wang Guifei united Zhang Liang and Xu Jingzong, and the three of them jointly impeached the prince.

Li Shimin asked: "Gao Ming, what do you say about your testimony against them?"

"Your Majesty, now that they've finished talking, I have something important to say!"

Now is the beginning of Li Chengqian's counterattack. He wants to tell everyone that he is not a persimmon that can be pinched casually!

"Okay! You can tell!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

With his hands behind his back, Li Chengqian looked like an adult, he walked up to Concubine Wang, glanced at her, and saw that her heart was trembling, and then he walked towards Zhang Liang.

"Your Majesty, Your Highness the Queen and all the ministers, I will now defend myself against the testimony of Zhang Liang and Wang Guifei against the king!"

Everyone pricked up their ears and listened.

Li Chengqian cleared his throat to make his voice clearer.

"First, regarding the source of the [-] coins in the market, what I want to say is that the money is all innocent and not corrupt!

Five thousand is not fifty. Where can I be greedy for such a large amount?First, I am not a law enforcement officer, and second, I have nothing to do with the ministers!Who would be stupid enough to send me so much money?

Anyone who walks will leave traces, you can check it casually!

It's okay for me to tell you here, I made the money using my ingenuity!It is the money earned after cooperating with Fengtang Commercial Bank!

For all their products, I gave technical guidance there, no matter from Xianxiandrunk, Mailu, and now wine!They are all researched by this king through the records of ancient books!

Of course, part of the money came from Feng Tang Commercial Bank. You can ask the boss there about this.He understands better than I do.In return, the profits of the entire market for ten years will belong to him, and the market will also belong to me, Datang.

Speaking of which, do you know that my five thousand coins were invested in Anle Fang for free!You even questioned me for being corrupt and breaking the law!Doesn't your conscience ache? "
