Datang: Empress mother-in-law sent Li Er to test me

If it doesn't work out, people will be gone!

How long has it been since the matter of Xuanwumen?

"What Your Majesty said." Changsun Wuji coughed lightly. Although he was reluctant in his heart, he still wanted to say the flattery that should be said.

Li Er looked at him, and continued: "Of course, there is indeed one thing I want to discuss with you when I come here this time."

Changsun Wuji heaved a sigh of relief, finally got down to business, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, it's okay to say."

Li Er's expression became serious, he looked at him and said, "Have you heard about Wannian Ling Zhang Dun?"

"I haven't heard of it." Changsun Wuji shook his head like a rattle.

"..." Li Er felt a toothache. He didn't take the bait, but acted like a loach, so slippery!

do not know?

If others say they don't know, I can still believe it. Your eldest grandson Wuji says he doesn't know?Who are you kidding!

Li Er knew very well that in the entire city of Chang'an, if anyone cared about Zhang Dun the most, it was definitely Changsun Wuji.

He must have known that Zhang Dun had offended someone.

In addition, today's emperor was particularly optimistic about Zhang Dun, and now he was forced to run out of the palace by the nine princes, and came directly to his eldest grandson Wuji's mansion without going anywhere.

With Changsun Wuji's mind, if he can't figure out the connection, he will be a ghost.

All he said on purpose was that he didn't want to answer his own words.

This is up to you? !

Li Er sneered in his heart, I came to you this time, do you think you can fool me by being a loach?

"It doesn't matter if you don't know, I can tell you!"

Li Er's tone was firm, and then he told him exactly what happened in the Wannian County Government.

"This county magistrate Zhang is really courageous enough, even the nine princes dare to provoke him."

Changsun Wuji looked surprised, then stroked his beard and asked in confusion: "But Your Majesty, what does this have to do with the minister?"

Li Er stared at him for a few seconds, and said, "It does matter, after all, you two have a teacher-student friendship!"

Hearing this, Changsun Wuji almost pulled his beard off, looked at Li Er in shock, and couldn't help raising his voice a few decibels, "Who said that? How could it happen? This is nonsense!"

Chapter 187 Changsun Wuji's shock, this scapegoat, is this old man able to recite it?

Do you have a teacher-student friendship with him?

What a joke!

Who the hell wants to have anything to do with this unlucky thing like him!

Changsun Wuji has the heart to curse others.

He was unhappy with Zhang Dun, and even wanted to exclude him from the temple.

In the matter of the imperial examination, he was arranged by Chu Suiliang, so that Zhang Dun became the number one scholar in the new department smoothly, and he was awarded the five-rank ten thousand year order by the imperial court.

Changsun Wuji could only hold his nose to admit this matter.

But if he wanted to get involved with Zhang Dun, anyone else could, but his eldest grandson Wuji couldn't.

In addition to what Zhang Dun did, [-]% of what Zhang Dun did was because he was behind the fire, which made Zhang Dun do this.

Now Zhang Dun has provoked nine Dukes.

Seeing to be unlucky.

At this time, what are you doing with him?

Watching the fire from the other side, watching from the sidelines, isn't it fragrant?

Seeing that the elder Sun Wuji denied it, Li Er waved his hands and said, "Listen to me first."

"I ask you, did Zhang Dun take the imperial examination?"

"Yes." Changsun Wuji nodded, this cannot be denied.

Li Er continued: "The imperial examination that Zhang Dun participated in, are you a Zhigong Examination? Are you the chief examiner?"

Changsun Wuji felt uneasy, nodded his head and said: "Yes."

Li Er squinted his eyes and asked again: "Is Zhang Dun the new champion?"

"Yes."

Hearing Changsun Wuji's reply again, Li Er spread out his hands and said, "Isn't that the end? You are the chief examiner of the imperial examination, and he is the champion of the new subject. You have a teacher-student friendship, what is it?"

"..."

Changsun Wuji stared straight at Li Er, for a moment he was not sure what he meant by this.

Li Er continued: "So, Zhang Dun is in trouble now, you, a teacher, have to help out."

The old man help him?Changsun Wuji grinned, and the old man wanted to give him a knife!

Of course, one cannot easily say what is in one's heart, especially in front of Li Er.

Changsun Wuji sighed, and said with regret in his tone: "I understand that His Majesty loves talents very much, but it is true that County Magistrate Zhang did something wrong."

"He arrested the Duke of Changping, and he committed the crime above. He arrested Duke Hou in court, and then wounded Zhang Liang's son."

"Not long after, he also arrested the sons of nine Dukes in the name of patrolling the streets, and now there are nine Dukes who went to the palace to seek His Majesty's explanation."

"Zhang Dun made such a big fuss, if His Majesty wants to protect him, I have to say that His Majesty has a kind heart."

Changsun Wuji shook his head and said, "But what Zhang Dun has done has exceeded the authority of the Wannian Order."

"Now he is openly trying to abolish the law of redemption of copper in my Tang law."

"The method of redeeming copper has existed since ancient times. It has been passed down to this day and has not been abolished. There is a reason for its existence."

Changsun Wuji said solemnly: "Zhang Dun doesn't understand, that's why he does stupid things. I don't understand, why does His Majesty still protect him? If it continues, this son has offended all civil and military officials. , to appear on His Majesty's court case!"

Li Er sighed, "So didn't I come to look for you? I thought, you will protect him!"

Changsun Wuji: "???"

Li Er continued: "In this way, civil and military officials will not be angry with me, and there will be no memorabilia that will appear in my imperial case. What do you think?"

I don't think so!

I still want to hit you!

Changsun Wuji's facial muscles twitched, and the fists in his sleeves were clenched.

If Li Er was not the emperor, but someone else, even if he was the Duke or Prime Minister, Changsun Wuji would dare to punch him.

Who is it? !

You are afraid of offending civil and military officials by protecting him, isn't this old man afraid?

I really want to protect Zhang Dun, the civil and military officials' memorials will indeed not appear in your Li Er's imperial case.

The whole thing is coming for the old man!

Maybe they can rush to the mansion and fight with themselves!

Thinking of that scene, Changsun Wuji couldn't help but shudder.

The most important thing is, why!

Changsun Wuji shook his head resolutely and said, "Your Majesty, I will never protect Zhang Dun!"

"As the Wannian Ling, he didn't do his job well, but instead wanted to fight against the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty. He wants to die, and I will not stop him!"

"If you don't throw stones into someone's well, you are already helping him!"

"If you want to help him again, I can't afford it."

Changsun Wuji raised his palm, pointed to his head, and said, "After all, I only have this head."

Li Eryu said gently: "Understood, I understand, you are my elder brother, why would I let you do sinful things?"

can not you do it?Why did you say it all!

Changsun Wuji looked at him quietly, full of disbelief in his heart.

"If you don't agree, how can I make things difficult for you?" Li Er said with a smile: "Furthermore, the real purpose of my coming to you this time is not this."

Hearing this, Changsun Wuji heaved a sigh of relief, cupped his hands and said, "What is Your Majesty's reason for coming to see me?"

Li Er didn't say a word, but stood up slowly, with his hands behind his back, looked at the straw figure in the distance, strode over, pulled an arrow from the straw figure, and picked up the longbow.

He bent his bow and shot an arrow.

call out!

The arrow hit the straw man's head in an instant.

Li Er nodded in satisfaction, then said while nodding his arrow:

"You mentioned the method of redeeming copper just now. I came here this time for this matter."

"You see it now too."

"Zhang Liang used the method of redeeming copper to absolve his son and wife."

"As the Ten Thousand Years Commander, Zhang Dun arrested nine sons of the dukes of the state, and he also used the method of redemption to get rid of the crime afterwards."

"This is also the reason why the nine princes came to me to ask for an explanation."

"Even if they come to me to ask for an explanation, what can I give them?"

"The method of redemption for copper is clearly written in my laws of the Tang Dynasty. It is no problem for Zhang Liang to use it, and it is no problem for Zhang Dun to use it."

"However, the nine princes feel that there is a problem, and I also feel that there is a problem."

"But Zhang Liang and Zhang Dun did nothing wrong."

Li Er shot another arrow and hit the straw man in the face again.

He put down the longbow in his hand, looked at Changsun Wuji solemnly, and said, "Then what's the problem?"

"I thought the problem was the method of redeeming copper!"

"If everyone in the court uses the method of redeeming copper to deal with each other, there will be no peace!"

"That's why I keep looking for you."

After finishing speaking, Li Er raised his palm and pointed at Changsun Wuji heavily.

"..."

Changsun Wuji looked at him in shock, and circled around, and you circled back again, didn't you?

And you said you didn't come for Zhang Dun?

The fox tail is exposed!

Have a problem with the method of redeeming copper?Why do you keep looking for this old man?What do you mean, you plan to let the old man propose in the court to abolish the law of redemption for copper?

So the civil and military officials didn't tear up the old man? !

Moreover, didn't this help Zhang Dun achieve his goal?

Chapter 188 Come, carry this pot for me obediently

But Zhang Dun is fine.

The spearhead is all aimed at himself.

Isn't the old man a scapegoat?

Changsun Wuji shook his head like a rattle, and said, "Your Majesty, I can't bear this blame!"

"What else do you say?"

Li Er frowned and said, "When did I let you take the blame? I'm talking about business with you!"

"..."

Changsun Wuji looked at him speechlessly, is this serious business?Isn't this just letting me take the blame? !
