Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

"Huh?" His Majesty Li Er's face darkened, and he said, "Could it be that you also feel that this case is full of doubts?"

"That's not true! However, I thought that Luo Ersuopo's plot to assassinate His Majesty must not be his idea alone, there must be someone behind the scenes! If he is not caught, how will he know who his accomplice is?" After finishing speaking, Guo Ye knelt down on the ground and said: "I beg you to be responsible for thoroughly investigating the Luo Er Sa Po case!"

"I object!" Kong Yingda stood up tremblingly again, and said, "Duke Qin was in Ding You's time, how could he hold an official position in the court? This is not in line with the original intention of my Tang court to rule the world with filial piety!"

His Majesty Li Er said: "What's so difficult about this? Saints have scriptures and powers! Now that the imperial court has launched such a big case of treason, it is urgent for an important official like Guo Aiqing to step forward! I will decree to win over Guo Aiqing! Could it be that Kong Shangshu thought that my safety was not as good as Guo Aiqing's filial piety?"

"I dare not!"

"Guo Aiqing, I'm going to make an order..."

"Slow down!" Guo Ye stopped suddenly and said, "Your Majesty, I still have something to say!"

"You speak!"

"The minister's official position was originally the minister of the Ministry of Rites and the leader of the army and the general of the Weifu. It is said that this official is not a small one! But the case of Luoer Sapo involves many things. I am afraid that I will not be able to suppress the situation. I hope your majesty will investigate clearly!"

His Majesty Li Er said with a smile: "You boy, I want you to be promoted!"

"It's okay to be promoted or not, but in order to handle this big treason case, the minister's power is too small to succeed!"

His Majesty Li Er said: "You are too young, and you are not a relative of the emperor. If you go higher, it may not be the way to protect yourself!"

"Then you can't be promoted, at least give the minister some other powers! For example, being a minister of the Ministry of War or something..." Guo Ye said with a playful smile!

It's not that he is really obsessed with officials, but that the relationship between him and His Majesty Li Er has cracked because of the previous incident.Now that His Majesty Li Er has something to ask of him, he can still be generous.It's hard to say when the time has passed!

Asking for an official from His Majesty Li Er now is also an expression of getting closer to His Majesty Li Er!It proves that he has absolutely no grudge against His Majesty Li Er!

His Majesty Li Er was also very satisfied with his performance, and said: "Then I will give you three thousand households in Shiyi!"

Guo Ye's salary increased tenfold, and he was about to catch up with Yu Chigong!However, he still couldn't agree too easily, and said: "Jiashi Township is good, but can the minister's power be increased a little..."

"Hmph! If you agree to marry Gao Yang, I will make you a prince!"

"Then... that's fine!"

Seeing that Guo Ye still looked reluctant, His Majesty Li Er comforted him: "The case of Luo Er Sa Po has involved a lot! God has the virtue of good life, and I don't want to kill people! When you investigate this case , some people who are not deeply involved in the case, you can make the decision and give leniency! I said that, can you understand?"

This is true, not only Guo Ye understands, but also the ministers of the court and China!His Majesty Li Er immediately said that when investigating this case, Guo Ye could accept bribes and bend the law for personal gain!

His Majesty Li Er's move can be said to kill three birds with one stone. On the one hand, using the bribes of the officials to buy Guo Ye can be called a gift of flowers to Buddha, which is beneficial without cost!On the other hand, it also pointed out a clear path for those ministers who were not deeply involved in the case!As long as you serve Guo Ye well, I will not pursue it!On the other hand, it shows that His Majesty Li Er has no intention of cleaning the court!Win over the majority and attack the very few!

"Your Majesty is holy! This is the way it should be done!"

"Your Majesty's move is very similar to Cao Mengde of the Three Kingdoms! It will be passed down through the ages!"

"Just pull it down! Can Cao Cao compare to His Majesty? If you want me to say that Your Majesty is really comparable to Yao, Shun and Yu, don't let the Three Emperors and Five Emperors!"

"Qin Guogong, why don't you hurry up and thank you, are you really proud of being favored?"

"Qin Guogong has received such a great favor from His Majesty, if he refuses to agree, is he still a person?"

"Qin Guogong, if you agree, you will really become the living Buddha of ten thousand families. Don't come again when you don't miss this opportunity!"

The crowd was raging, and if Guo Ye didn't immediately agree with that posture, he would simply cut himself off from the people and commit a crime more serious than treason!

"My minister obeys the order!" Guo Ye bowed and accepted the order!

After solving this matter, His Majesty Li Er let out a sigh of relief. Suddenly he remembered something and said, "That's right! Gao Yang, why did you come here today?"

Princess Gaoyang is ice and snow smart, how could she not know the current situation?But when His Majesty Li Er asked, he couldn't help but say, "Father, I want to impeach Duke Qin! Duke Qin wanted to avenge himself, and insisted on killing Monk Bianji, who led his family. He is so reckless about human life, you have to take it seriously." Punish him!"

"If there is such a thing?"

"How can I lie to you?"

His Majesty Li Er smiled slightly, and said: "Mr. Qin, I think it was my fault that I was deceived by Luoer Sapo and ordered to besiege Da Ci'en Temple! However, it can be regarded as obeying the order! You will forgive me Him!"

"Father, Emperor Shengming!" Princess Gao Yang said happily!

However, His Majesty Li Er's next sentence made her feel down, and said: "However... Although Bian Ji's move may be because of my imperial decree, there is another possibility, that is, he is Luo Er. An accomplice of Saha! This is a big case of treason, so you must be careful... Qin Guogong!"

"Chen is here!"

"You take Monk Bianji back, torture him severely, don't let him go in vain, and let me find out the truth! Hmm... Be careful not to avenge yourself!"

"The minister obeys the order!"

Chapter 1502 Pain and happiness

Would it be good to hand over the Bianji monk to Guo Ye?

Princess Gao Yang became anxious immediately, and said: "Father, please think again! Bian Ji has enmity with Qin Guogong, even if you suspect him of treason, you should hand it over to others for interrogation! Qin Guogong has to avoid suspicion!"

But His Majesty Li Er's face darkened, and said: "I don't need you to teach me how to deal with major national affairs! Gao Yang, because you almost killed Guo Yeqing's whole family by mistake! Now you have to intercede for a monk who is suspected of treason! What on earth do you want?" What is the intention? Still not retreating!"

"But……"

"Get out!"

Princess Gao Yang saw that things must not be violated, she gave Guo Ye a hard look, and said: "Guo Ye, if Monk Bianji has any troubles, I will never end with you!"

After finishing speaking, he stomped his little feet and left!

His Majesty Li Er gave a wry smile, and said: "I have no way to teach my daughters, and I made all the ministers laugh at me!"

Guo Ye said: "Then monk Bianji?"

"Didn't I say that you are in charge of the Luo Er Sa Po case? From high officials to nobles, down to traffickers and pawns, it's all up to Aiqing to kill or release you! Let alone such a small monk?"

"Then Princess Gaoyang will pursue it..."

"Forget it!" His Majesty Li Er nodded and wrote an imperial decree, saying: "From today onwards, you will be my imperial envoy, representing me to investigate the case of Luoer Sapo, and wherever you go, you will feel like I am here in person! Next, you are not afraid of Gao Yang's revenge, are you?"

This power is too great, it is simply the second little emperor!Luo Er Sapo has such a wide range of contacts, which officials in the court and China have not been involved with him?With this decree, Guo Ye can justifiably arrest and interrogate any officials at will!

Li Daozong said: "Your Majesty, there must be a time limit for this imperial decree, right?"

His Majesty Li Er said bitterly: "There is no time limit! As long as Luo Er Sapo is not brought to justice for a day, this imperial decree will be valid forever! I remembered that it was you who introduced Luo Er Sapo to me. What is the relationship between you and him?" ?”

"My humble minister... my humble minister..."

"Forget it! I don't want to hear your explanation. If you have anything to say, go and explain it to Guo Aiqing! King Jiang Xia, you have to take care of yourself!"

His Majesty Li Er was actually very happy in his heart. If it wasn't for Guo Ye today, he would be completely disgraced!This decree, on the one hand, is to support Guo Ye, and on the other hand, it is also to vent the truth in my heart!

All the ministers also understood his thoughts. Since His Majesty Li Er had already made a huge concession, he could only admit this extremely unruly imperial decree with a pinch of his nose!
