Crown Tang emperor

Seeing Pei Shouzhen's staunch posture, Li Tong pointed at him and said to Li Yuansu with a smile.

Li Yuanyuan hadn't had time to answer after hearing the words, but Pei Shouzhen's face suddenly changed when he heard this, and he was no longer as strong and tough as before. , Shihe Guoen, this body promises, even if you die, you will have no regrets! Your Highness believes in this, and it is even worse to take my life! I have been circumcised, my soul has been tortured, and I will never be framed by this crime!"

Hearing Pei Shouzhen's stern answer, Li Tong still sneered at the beginning, but when Pei Shouzhen finished speaking, he stood up from the table, kicked the table in front of the table, and walked straight in front of Pei Shouzhen with his sword, the sword point went straight to his throat and screamed angrily. Said: "Your father and son both eat Tang Lu, so they are called loyal? I and the saint are not related to five clothes, and we are in trouble. Tang Ye joins hands to rebuild, and the kindness exceeds that of father and son! The madman hides in my office. You dare to block my way, invite me to use the magic sword, and give you all your loyalty? Come and tell me, what kind of festival are you asking for?"

When Pei Shouzhen heard these reprimands, he was stunned for a moment, completely intimidated by King Yong's aura.After being so silent for a while, the upright body shrank slightly, and said in a shy voice, "If you don't ask to stay overnight in a lowly position, if you don't report it, it is indeed a violation of the imperial order. But only the body is urged by the emperor's order, and this body is no longer suitable. Freedom, but if you can fulfill your mission, and execute the punishment on the platform, I hope to accept it all!"

"The Tang industry was rebuilt, and His Royal Highness also contributed a lot to it. Although the love of the court has a state of sternness, it is extremely difficult to use things. His Highness is famous in the world, and he is named as a treasure of the clan. Useful. The power of the platform is great, which has never been seen since Zhenguan. To the west of Tongguan, the king's teachings are running smoothly, and the emperor's order is more benevolent, which is unprecedented in the Guandong states."

Although Pei Shou's true spirit was intimidated by King Yong's aura, he had considered these words in his heart for a long time, and now he finally got the opportunity to make a statement in person, so he naturally refused to miss it, and continued: "Since I traveled westward in my humble position, the scenery of the states and counties I have seen It can be said that, especially in Xijing, all kinds of industries are prosperous, and the people's sentiments are happy. It is enough to know that His Highness is lenient and benevolent to the herdsmen.

However, since last autumn, the tributes from the Kansai states have not been cleared, and the rent transfers have disappeared, which is really confusing.The administration of the dynasty, the income and expenditure, are orderly.Only the states of Shaanxi are not included in the Duzhi, so the court situation is in trouble.Construction is not going well, all industries are in depression, and all officials are in a hurry because of this, and cooking and drinking are almost unsustainable.

I implore His Highness to do not be hindered by Guanshan, and to be sympathetic to all the officials and people in the capital of the gods, so that Shaanxi will not be outside the border, and His Highness will be free from the disturbance of overflowing!It is against the law to keep the truth, sincerity is not enough, and to seek progress on a dangerous path, but if you can be considerate of all these emotions, life and death will not be in the way. "

Speaking of this, Pei Shouzhen deeply bowed to the ground, and no longer confronted each other like before, showing resentment.

Li Tong looked down at Pei Shouzhen who was prostrate at his feet, his brows were still slightly frowned, but he said with a sneer: "Words and deeds are in line with morality, and courage is naturally majestic. So Pei has no fear of life and death, and offends me. This is the case It is rewarding, but this intention..."

He didn't finish his speech, but turned around and returned to the mat table that he kicked over just now, picked up some scattered books and scrolls to Pei Shouzhen with his sword, and said coldly: "This is Xingtaidu Pei Cheng might as well take a look at the account book. What the human eye sees may not be true, and what is moral may not be general."

After hearing the words, Pei Shouzhen shook his head and said: "The Xingtai case is the key to the governance mechanism. I dare not take a peek at it in a lowly position. Only the emperor's order makes me implore Your Highness to give a face-to-face reply."

"Let's take a look, even if you want to die, you have to die to understand. If you keep the name and keep the truth, why don't you seek the truth until you die?"

Li Tong returned to his seat, took back his sword, and spoke without any emotion.

When Pei Shouzhen heard this, he simply turned his heart away, picked up the scroll that King Yong had brought to him, and read it.With this glance, his face immediately changed, he was shocked by the huge amount of money and food involved in this volume.

He is the Prime Minister of the Taifu, and he is also responsible for spending money and food. He has a relatively comprehensive understanding of the financial situation of the imperial court.But even the imperial court is far inferior to Xingtai in terms of money and food expenditure.

"What Pei Cheng said is that Shaanxi is not a foreign country. This is an honest and moral argument. But since I traveled westward, the imperial court has not sent anything to Guanxi. Although the current state of affairs is not talking about the hardships of the road, it is definitely not exaggerating. Praise is to enjoy. When I entered this time, all karma was sluggish, and all husbands were on the edge. If I made a careless move, I would not have a good head. What I thought at that time was vaguely similar to Pei Cheng's current one. Since the emperor ordered me, I would Just don’t care about this body, it’s all about getting merit.”

When Li Tong spoke up to this point, his irritability calmed down a bit, and he looked at Pei Shouzhen with a hint of admiration in his eyes: "There is no need to talk about the sympathy here. Since Pei Cheng is in charge of financial planning, he also sees me doing it right now." The Taiwan secret is important, so let me ask you, where is the place guarded by the Shaanxi Taoist priest, where can we chop and chop, and provide food and drink for the hundreds of bureaucrats in the capital of God? Ask yourself, but if you can follow the emperor's order, Pei Cheng can ignore the punishment Why should I be afraid of the chaos and heated discussions? Pei Cheng persuaded me with this, does it mean that I owe you a little bit of strength?"

When Pei Shouzhen heard this, he didn't answer immediately. He just picked up the travel and budget books scattered on the ground one after another, read them carefully several times, and then suddenly covered his face and sighed: "It's ridiculous that Pei Shouzhen's knowledge is superficial and he speaks wildly. For disobedience. His Royal Highness King Yong is guarding Shaanxi, and it is truly a blessing for the country. It is despicable and despicable. The emperor's order is right and wrong, and he dare not speak. Since he invites the sword of law, he is willing to lead his neck to be punished."

When he was talking about this, Pei Shouzhen no longer had the heroic spirit he had before. Instead, he felt a sense of desolation permeating his whole body, and there was even a bit of relief between his brows and eyes.

"Your Highness..."

Seeing Pei Shouzhen's willingness to die, and thinking of the scene where His Royal Highness King Yong was so enraged by him that he drew his sword to face each other just now, Li Yuansu couldn't help but want to speak, but as soon as he opened his mouth, King Yong raised his hand interrupt.

"Under the sword of law, there are only treacherous and evil. Since Pei wants to die, he still wants to leave you with a crime. Tell the world, I will not kill indiscriminately."

Chapter 0694

Hearing what His Royal Highness King Yong said, Pei Shouzhen was stunned for a moment, and then bowed his head and said: "The lowly official violated the order, stayed in the imperial city, and invaded to disturb His Royal Highness. The evidence of the crime is conclusive..."

"Not enough, it's not enough."

Li Tong sneered, turned to Li Yuansu and said, "Li Shangshu, tell him, how many crimes he has confessed, and what punishment he should receive in the execution of the punishment."

At this moment, Li Yuanyuan was also a little confused about what His Royal Highness wanted to do. When he heard this question, he hesitated for a while, and then he answered: "The establishment of Xingtai punishment is not only for killing to establish prestige. Violations of various prohibitions, there is no such thing as prying into the secrets of Taiwan before, and there is no conspiracy to hide rape and assassinate him later, and the severity of his crimes shall be judged, and he shall be sentenced to long or short term imprisonment, and shall not lose money in lieu of punishment."

Although Xingtai law enforcement has a strict side, except for the fact that King Yong first entered the customs and needed to kill to establish his prestige, as the situation in the customs gradually stabilized, except for the heinous crimes, he did not indiscriminately kill and punish.

But this does not mean that the laws of Taiwan do not have the effect of shocking people's hearts. Although the death penalty is applied cautiously, various punishments of imprisonment can also make people change their faces.The territory controlled by Xingtai now reaches as far as the Western Regions and reaches as wide as the vast sea. Once it is sent to the bitter and cold frontier, the taste will not be much better than death at that time.

Hearing the two people's answer, Pei Shouzhen's face became bitter again, he pondered for a moment, and then said again: "The lowly position does not know how to carry out the great hardships of the stage, and recklessly admonishes Your Highness with false rumors. In terms of morality, the crime is really serious."

"You are not a member of the Xingtai, so naturally you don't know the whole picture of Xingtai's use of things. Besides, killing people because of your words, the benevolent will not do it, because your life will damage my voice, and it is not enough to demonstrate the justice and strictness of Xingtai."

Li Tong waved his hand again after hearing the words, indicating that this reason is not sufficient, but he still refused to let Pei Shouzhen go, but said solemnly: "Keep thinking, keep talking!"

Hearing His Royal Highness King Yong's continued questioning, Pei Shouzhen was filled with bitterness for a while.He was conceited in morality, took risks and forcibly visited King Yong, and his words were too respectful. This matter was seen by all eyes, and he knew that he had offended King Yong deeply.

Especially seeing the huge cost and great effort before and after the stage, it can be said that there is no disturbance of swords and soldiers in the territory of the Tang family, and they all rely on the merits of the stage.The imperial court didn't care about the heavy frontier affairs of Xingtai, and just blindly demanded money and food. To be honest, even Pei Shouzhen felt that this approach of the imperial court was immodest and unfair.

Now that Shaanxi is almost a country outside the country, the responsibility does not lie entirely with King Yong's arrogance and domineering, but more because of the lack of knowledge of the court itself.To put it bluntly, even if the imperial court bans the Xingtai and solves King Yong, if the territory of Shaanxi is well governed, and if the surrounding bandits are subdued, in today's world, how many people can boast that they can replace King Yong to take on this important task?The consumption of everything may be even more than before.

The reason why Pei Shouzhen was willing to die was that he knew that the offense of his behavior had offended King Yong severely.The second is that he feels ashamed. His previous attitude was more or less because he felt that King Yong was powerful and disobedient. This is naturally not tolerated by Wang Chen.

But the fact is that King Yong embraced this territory as the western wall, and the entire Shaanxi land has used manpower and material resources to the extreme. , General Xingtai is the enemy of tigers and wolves.

Of course, Shaanxi is not a foreign country, but under the scheming of people's minds, it has already judged whether it is an enemy or an enemy.This fact shakes the morality that Pei Shouzhen upholds, and even collapses. The imperial court can punish King Yong with patriarchal methods and urge him to be ordered by the emperor, but if King Yong really falls, can these old tricks also be able to deter him? Enemies?

This wavering of belief and change of mentality was due to Pei Shouzhen's own conscience, but at the same time, it was contrary to his past morality, which terrified him.At this moment, begging for death is really not a way of earning a living by boasting about loyalty.

King Yong repeatedly asked him what crime should be used to kill him, which was indeed a bit of a bitter question.Pei Shouzhen answered several times, but he was still timid to reveal the truest feelings in his heart, but King Yong was not perfunctory by him, and continued to ask questions.

After a long while of silence, Pei Shouzhen finally let out a long sigh, fell deeply on the ground, and replied in a shy voice: "Your Highness said before that Shouzhen was willing to accept the crime. What he did today is indeed to covet the thief's festival and seek false reputation."

"This time the imperial order was used to enter Beijing, and the root of the matter was not thoroughly investigated. It was just trapped in public opinion and vulgar schemes. Outside of the imperial order, it is illegal. Sneaking in to stay in Taiwan, pretending to be heroic, demanding integrity, and even falsely accusing His Royal Highness Harm the country, want to donate your life to the police. In terms of human feelings, this is to alienate relatives, making His Highness and saints incompatible. Generally speaking, it is a big traitor to destroy the pillars of our country by accusing meritorious deeds as thieves!"

When Pei Shouzhen spoke up to this point, tears welled up in his eyes: "The lowly position prides itself on the emperor's order, and the world depends on Tang Lu. The government cannot change the country's fortunes, so that the emperor's grace cannot be extremely tolerant and impartial. Foreign affairs cannot see the state." The predicament of the county is played above. I am only jealous of His Royal Highness's high achievements and powers, and use it to slander the national weapon and exaggerate. But I have one or two righteous thoughts in my heart, and I ask the people of Chang'an why they are so happy, but they are just paranoid. Evil schemes, stinginess in asking questions, and using my narrow minds to attack."

"All these crimes deserve death. Your Highness's family is close relatives, divided into important officials in Shanxi, and set up by Xingtai Jiyue. What is killed is the paranoia and greed of the humble, who do not take rectification as merit, but slander and slander. Your Excellency! I am so foolish and self-aware of the serious crime, but I just beg for a piece of white paper to leave here, and I am willing to be sentenced to death!"

It would be an extremely embarrassing thing for someone like Pei Shouzhen who felt he was dying to speak out the true feelings in his heart.He dared to do this deed, and he had a loyal and moral belief in his heart to inspire him. To let him disintegrate this belief, see clearly the little paranoia in his heart, and dissect it is tantamount to a thorough self-examination. negative.

So after speaking these words, Pei Shouzhen was already in tears, feeling a sense of remorse.

His behavior is to use the righteousness entrusted by the so-called emperor's order to cover up his selfishness.Nowadays, there is an atmosphere in the imperial court. They are wary of Daxingtai of Shaanxi Province and of King Yong.It is obvious that King Yong is arrogant and mad, and that he cannot obey the emperor's orders after receiving such great favor from the emperor.

The atmosphere created by such a way of thinking naturally made some loyal and moral officials feel aversion and hostility towards King Yong and Xingtai from the bottom of their hearts. Pei Shouzhen before him belonged to this group.

Encouraged by such beliefs, Pei Shouzhen naturally believed that King Yong's withholding of Shaanxi tributes was to store grain and raise troops, and to create his own power, with the hope that one day he would return to the east brazenly and aspire to the high position by force.

Therefore, Pei Shouzhen dared to violate Yan Qiang's remonstrance, thinking that even if he died because of this, he would not lose his integrity.

However, this way of thinking firstly denies King Yong's real contribution to the Tang Dynasty, and secondly exaggerates the greatness of the court.

The establishment of the Xingtai was originally set up by the imperial court when it was unable to look around. Even so far, the imperial court has not had a specific plan for managing border affairs.

In the peaceful atmosphere created by Xingtai's resistance to most foreign invaders, the courtiers boldly talked about resting with the people, and set up King Yong and Xingtai as a negative example of militarism and abuse of the people.All the acts of King Yong's defense against the border enemies are regarded as his private plans to consolidate his power.

Pei Shouzhen didn't think there was any problem with this line of thinking before, but when he saw the real secret affairs of Xingtai, he deeply understood what kind of responsibility Shaanxi Daoxingtai was taking on.

After listening to Pei Shouzhen's self-analysis, Li Yuanyuan couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Since His Royal Highness King Yong led the Xingtai, everything he has experienced is worthy of the reputation of the country. Kanxi is fine, how can the Xingtai go up and down?" Leisurely enjoyment? In the provinces of Shaanxi and Dao, the people have accumulated fatigue for a long time. Since the establishment of Taiwan, the power of the people has been cultivated and used.

All the members of the line, Jing Cong behind His Royal Highness, are busy with military and civil affairs all day long, which is indeed not as good as the dukes in Duji who have all day leisure and focus on speech.But if Shaanxi's politics is in order, and the king's teaching is not in short supply, everything will not be called nothingness.It is gratifying that Pei Cheng can realize this. "

In the last sentence, Li Yuanyuan said it to His Royal Highness King Yong, and it was also a plea for Pei Shouzhen.

Li Tong's face softened when he heard this.Pei Shouzhen's words and deeds really annoyed him, but they wouldn't kill the other party directly, and he also planned to use this matter to solve once and for all the problem of whether or not the tribute from Shaanxi Province should be handed over.

Of course, whether to kill Pei Shouzhen or not depends on the other party's understanding and disposition.So even asking Pei Shouzhen to do a self-criticism, it sounds like it is indeed a profound self-criticism.

Of course, what he showed to Pei Shouzhen was not all of the budget, it was just a part related to Shaanxi Road Rent Adjustment.In addition, Xingtai also has other income, such as the profit from Feiqian, the income from Longxi Quchang, and some smuggling in Hedong and Shannan, as well as the loss of Suwei salt and iron in Bingzhou.

Compared with these inputs, the proportion of rent adjustment and tribute taxes in Shaanxi Province and Taiwan's fiscal revenue is not high, but it is more stable.Especially with the in-depth development of various tasks such as the expansion of households and land reclamation, this part of the income is also rising rapidly.

Similarly, the start-up funds he obtained by almost emptying the treasury of Shendu Mansion before heading west were not recorded in this budget book.Of course, it's not that Li Tong takes money and doesn't do things. With the same investment, no one else may be able to do better than him in these things he has done.

"Those who know me say that I am worried; those who do not know me say what I want."

Li Tong sighed, stood up from the table again, took off his brocade robe, put it on Pei Shouzhen, and helped him up: "Shouzhen's life is not a pity. But the fault of the gangsters is my fault." , It is very precious to get these one or two fair words. The most important thing in life is not only life and death, but fame and fortune. But I can make a little rectification of the people who are doing things for me, a little bit of hostility, and give spring breeze."

Chapter 0695 fortunately from His Royal Highness, no regrets in this life

Pei Shouzhen's commotion in the imperial city also caused quite a stir on the stage.

The imperial court's resistance and hostility towards Xingtai, everyone in Xingtai also has their own feelings, and they are quite concerned about the relationship between the imperial court and Xingtai.After all, each of them is not alone. Once Xingtai and the imperial court completely break up and become completely hostile, it will have a profound impact on their respective families.

As an envoy sent by the imperial court, Pei Shouzhen offended His Royal Highness King Yong in the imperial city and interrogated him face to face, which naturally angered the masses.His Royal Highness King Yong has made great achievements in Shaanxi, how can a subordinate official sent by the imperial court at will be able to offend!

Therefore, when King Yong tried Pei Shouzhen in the government office of the Ministry of Household, a large number of officials and assistants gathered outside the official office of the Ministry of Household.Each of them had mixed feelings. On the one hand, they hoped that King Yong would severely punish this madman, so as to show the majesty of Xingtai.On the other hand, he was worried that King Yong would really kill this beast under his anger, and the relationship with the court would be even worse.

During the interrogation in the yamen hall, although all the people on the platform could not see it face to face, King Yong did not order the hall to be closed, probably because he didn't mind the question and answer being circulated.Therefore, the development of the situation in the government office of the household department also has officials running outside to report.

When King Yong untied his robe and handed it to Pei Shouzhen and made that statement, someone naturally passed it on to the outside world.

Hearing that the situation in the yamen hall was like this, the members of the xingtai who gathered outside also had mixed feelings.Song Jing, who was also staying outside, suddenly fell to the ground and shouted after listening to the officer's report: "I am fortunate to follow Your Highness, and I will use my talents to make great achievements in Shaanxi! I have no regrets in this life, and evil love is difficult!"

"Fortunately, Your Highness, I have no regrets in this life!"

Song Jing hadn't finished speaking, all the members of the platform gathered outside the Hu Department's official residence also bowed and shouted one after another, the shouts not only spread into the yamen hall, but also spread out in the imperial city.

Many officials who had just returned to work in the imperial city from Fangju did not know what happened in the imperial city just now. Hearing the shouts one after another, they were a little confused for a while, thinking it was Xingtai today. Special team building activities.Who would be willing to lag behind in such a matter, so they all raised their arms and shouted: "Fortunately, Your Highness, I have no regrets in this life!"

In just a quarter of an hour, the sound wave was transmitted, and such shouts echoed everywhere in the huge imperial city.

In the yamen hall of Hubu, Pei Shouzhen was willing to die, but he had to wear a robe as a gift from the Palace of King Yong. Great feeling.

He backed away at a wrong step, and bowed at the feet of King Yong again: "Your Highness uses scholars with kindness, governs the people with benevolence, and defeats the enemy with prestige. Shaanxi Dao Xingzhi is like this. I am deeply touched by this humble position. The Tang family has benefited from Your Highness. Sincerely for the good fortune of the community! Bow down and worship again, not to beg for life, despicable people dare not represent the common people, only this body, this heart, surrender to the famous king!"

Li Tong did have some other thoughts brewing in his mind about Pei Shouzhen, but he never expected that his whole lineup would be so dramatic and his coordination so ingenious.

So he also ignored Pei Shouzhen, who was prostrate in front of him, but frowned and said to Li Yuanyuan: "The plan of the day is in the morning. Are all the members free from desks and making such idle noises in the morning light? Hurry up and return to your home. It's a waste of time to say what you want to do with your heart and mind!"

Although His Highness reprimanded him, there was a hint of joy between his eyebrows and eyes, so Li Yuanyuan also smiled and cupped his hands and said: "The group of officials has a pure heart, which is beyond words. absurdity."

Saying this in his mouth, Li Yuanyuan also walked out of the yamen hall, laughing and retreating from the officials who surrounded the household office.

Although the shouting stopped here, there were still slogans one after another in the farther area of ​​the imperial city. Li Yuanyuan listened attentively to these shouts, the corners of his mouth curled up, and a hint of pride appeared on his face.It is also a blessing for him to have a place in such a united and progressive group.

In the yamen hall, Li Tong looked down at Pei Shouzhen again, and his tone became more relaxed: "Pei Cheng, please excuse me, the so-called killing punishment was just a moment of anger. You can be diligent in the emperor's order, not afraid of power, and act Although you are engaged in the execution of Taiwan orders, you are not an employee of the Xingtai, so there is no point in adjudicating by Xingtai. As for the matter you appealed to, I will give you an explanation today, and follow me to another hall for discussion."

"It's difficult to use the platform, and the humble position has already seen it. The imperial court did not consider it comprehensively. Although the task is to urge the payment, it is also responsible for the investigation and visit. Knowing that the use of life is wrong, dare not be stubborn The old order. The only thing to do here is to record all the events here, play them in the court, and then wait for the court to discuss and revise the sentence, so as to achieve both internal and external."

At this moment, Pei Shouzhen no longer had the stern and threatening manner before, but only said in a sincere tone.

After Li Tong heard this, he laughed: "Could it be that Pei Cheng thought that the table knife and pen were idle, and he was just silent here? The court knows a lot more about Shaanxi than you, so the reason why you are still entangled based on this is that The reason, Fei Ercao can ask."

Hearing what King Yong said, Pei Shouzhen shut up wisely. Of course, he also felt the delicate atmosphere between Xingtai and the court.Neizhong Quyin has far exceeded the range that a mere Taifu Cheng can interfere with.

But Pei Shouzhen still couldn't help but said: "The difficulty of going to Taiwan, or the fact that many military planes were involved, can't be announced to the public. But if we can selectively disclose the superficial details involved, I hope it can greatly solve the troubles of material discussions."

Li Tong smiled slightly after hearing the words, which was a response to Pei Shouzhen's kind release.

Knowing that King Yong was going to personally resolve the court's urging to pay the autumn tax, all relevant officials of Xingtai gathered in the provincial government affairs hall, and the envoys from the capital of God, including Li Qianli, the hands-off shopkeeper, also gathered together. Was invited into the stage.

Li Qianli was shocked to hear that Pei Shouzhen was making noise in the platform, and he was already panicked, fearing that His Royal Highness King Yong would be angry with him because of this.After logging into the Political Affairs Hall, he gave Pei Shouzhen a slap in the face.

Naturally, Li Tong didn't bother to get involved in the internal disputes of the imperial mission, and just ordered all the staff to check and calculate the money and food matters in Taiwan.

In fact, there is no result of this calculation. The cost of running the platform is huge, and any amount of money and grain is a radish and a hole. Last autumn, the Fu has already been spent, and this year is far from the season of collection.As for other aspects of Xingtai's progress, there is naturally no reason to confuse it with this matter.

So the final calculation result is that there is simply not enough money and food in the treasury of Xingtai to make up for last autumn's Fu, and on the contrary, it still has a huge deficit.

Originally, the envoys of the imperial court, including Li Qianli, saw that Xingtai finally faced up to this matter, and they had some expectations in their hearts. After all, if the task was not completed, they would be held accountable even if they returned to God.

But faced with such a result, they were naturally disappointed. Since they went west, they saw that the politics of Shaanxi provinces were orderly, but they did not expect that the Xingtai government treasury was already in a high deficit.

Some people naturally didn't want to believe it, so they raised their hands and asked, "Is there an error in the budget?"

This question is naturally very impolite, after hearing the words, all the people on the stage were angry.But without waiting for these people to speak out, Pei Shouzhen, who was a member of the emissary, had already said: "The profit and loss of the Xingtai treasury is the truth. I dared to offend you in the morning, but His Royal Highness King Yong not only did not take the crime, but also kept Xingtai's secret records. Pass the case for reading. From what I have seen, I can be sure."

Unlike Li Qianli, the hands-off shopkeeper, Pei Shouzhen was quite prestigious among the crowd. If he hadn't taken risks, they wouldn't even have had such a chance to negotiate with Xingtai face-to-face.

Hearing what Pei Shouzhen said at this time, everyone dared not question it casually.

Seeing the different expressions of these court envoys, Li Tong sneered in his heart.There are always more solutions than difficulties. Since being rude and disgusting, then cry poorly.

Originally, I wanted to get along with you as a rich person, but what I got in exchange was suspicion, jealousy, relentless pursuit, pressing every step of the way, and I must clean up the details of the platform.Forget it, stop pretending, it's a showdown, Xingtai is poor, eating enough food, waiting for the rice to cook!

This is the situation. The reason why the stage was secretive before was to sing the empty city plan to deter Hu Yi.Now that the underpants of Xingtai have been opened by you, and the surrounding people have also understood the fact that the outsiders of Xingtai are strong and middle-aged, and if they lead their troops to beat the pass, you can discuss who will take the blame!

The courtiers present did not think so far, and were still a little unwilling. Some people knelt down in the court and begged: "Your Highness respects Shaanxi, and the power is in the hands of the government. I beg you to be sympathetic to the low-ranking people. It is not easy. If you come here under orders, if Returning to the capital with an empty car, I am afraid it will be difficult to return to life..."

Hearing this, before Li Tong could speak, Yao Yuanchong couldn't help but said, "It's not easy for Ercao to move around. Could it be that the burden of all the people on the platform is idle work? Strong shock inside and outside. Now that the truth is revealed, who can guarantee that it will still be fully protected? If the rebirth of the various borders is not stable, let alone the accumulation of last year, even if it is new this autumn, it may not be enough to make use of it!"

Li Tong gave Yao Yuanchong a compliment in his heart, but he still sighed: "No matter how much money is spent on the platform, don't use it as a prestige to force Cao to go. The tribute collection, all the land in the land, is bound by the emperor's order. It is imperative. Only the Shaanxi road is dangerous and difficult, and there is no delay in the matter, and there is no right to follow in the use of materials. When Ercao Consul enters Beijing, especially Taifu Cheng Pei Shouzhen is loyal and diligent, and rewards you for your loyalty and diligence. I should not let you wait Going back to the capital with an empty car, I was wrongly accused of not being able to do anything."

"Your Highness, Xingtai Duzhi is in danger..."

Hearing what His Royal Highness King Yong said, all the people on the platform in the hall shouted for advice, but Li Tong raised his hand and stopped.

"There is no expediency in public funds and military affairs, but I was born as a close relative in heaven, and I have a little savings in private courts. Since the appointment of the emperor, my whereabouts have been wandering, and I have been in a hurry. The husband and wife affairs are simple, there is no interest in the court, and the daily life is free. Needless to hoard.

It is a great pity that a family's private troubles make up for the country, because it is not easy for the masses to work hard. It would be a pity if they were deposed because of this.It is not to say that Dianshu is a personal favor. I live in Shaanxi, and I am trapped in a critical border situation. I have not followed the way of rest and recuperation, so that the treasury is empty, and my merits are not enough to make up for my mistakes. I also deserve this criminal responsibility! "

Li Tong's words were expressed with sincerity and emotion.

Fourth Uncle, you are not a human being. I am running around for the sake of the Tang family, and my personal life is not harmonious. You still have to care about me. You have to force me to go bankrupt before you are satisfied?You win, in order to avoid implicating the innocent, I would rather be blackmailed by you, and ask you if the money is hot!

Chapter 0696 Kansai elders, crimes with the king

Hearing King Yong's words, the expressions of all the people in the hall, no matter they were the officials on the platform or the court envoys, changed drastically.Among them, a few of the Xingtai officials who were still inexperienced couldn't help but glared at Li Qianli and the imperial envoys.In particular, the court envoy who begged King Yong for his sympathy received even more attention. His cold gazes were like knives, and he almost wanted to pierce him.

Li Yuansu got up at the right time, clasped his fists and said in a deep voice: "Since your Highness's westward march, his achievements have been manifested, which can be seen by all eyes. The Jin'ou has been completed and the people of the Li people have been able to live in peace. Your Highness has done a great job!
