I am Li Shen and Li Shimin, the free kings of the Tang Dynasty

All the merchants on the street knew that what happened in the past few days was caused by Wang Jiabu Bank defrauding merchants.

The First Chamber of Commerce of the Tang Dynasty just wants compensation. Good things don't go out, and bad things spread thousands of miles.

In the days that followed, the dandies took turns to cause trouble, and the Eight Immortals showed their magical powers across the sea. The news that the Wang family defrauded vendors by selling fake goods slowly spread from this street to the surrounding areas.

Now the Wang family couldn't sit still. Losing a little money is a small thing, but losing reputation is a big deal. So Wang Weiqi found the magistrate of Wannian County and asked him to send yamen to help patrol the whole street of Wangjiabuhang. If he saw anyone causing trouble, Catch them if you can; drive them away if you can't.

However, this was not enough to withstand these scourges. Li Shen told them sixteen words: "When the enemy advances, we retreat; when the enemy is stationed, we harass; when the enemy is tired, we attack; when the enemy retreats, we pursue."

After hearing the explanations from the civil servants, the dandies were greatly impressed by Li Shen's combat policy and shouted "Ji Wang is a great talent".

King Ji was able to sum up such a classic combat method from bullying, which is really a role model for our generation.

One can imagine what happened next. They deeply understood and understood the sixteen-character mantra that Li Shen gave them. I will leave when you have someone, and I will come when you leave. The Wang family, which has been repeatedly disturbed, will never have peace.

Wang Weiqi impeached the two ministers every day in court for their incompetence in educating their sons. After Li Shimin severely criticized them every time, he grounded his son for a month.

But there is still an endless stream every day, with two people changing every day. Wannian County could only drive them away, but they did not dare to arrest them. The fathers of these people were at least fifth grade, and many of them were either dukes or marquises, or at least county officials.

In the end, after 20 days of continuous fighting, the Wang family chose to close its doors. This also made the dudes behind who didn't show their talents scold the Wang family for being spineless and why they couldn't persevere more.

----------------

Today is the Great Court Meeting, and all the officials from the fifth rank and above in Chang'an will participate. Li Shimin had just started to go to court when he heard rapid footsteps coming from far away, and finally saw a figure running in hurriedly. I didn't stop until I ran to the front, and I was still breathing heavily.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I...I got up late." The man said breathlessly.

Everyone took a closer look and saw that the person speaking turned out to be King Ji Li Shen. No wonder he was so unruly.

Many ministers are wondering, what day is it today? This guy has never gone to court, so why did he come to court today?

There are also some ministers who feel that something big will happen today, because based on past experience, this King Ji will not be able to afford it early, and something will happen every time he goes to court.

Li Shimin was also very surprised when he saw Li Shen running in from above, but he didn't show it. There was no investigation into Li Shen's lateness, and he just signaled that the meeting would continue.

After waiting for almost an hour, the meeting was over. According to the practice these days, Wang Wei should have come out to inform him, but the Wang family cloth shop was closed, so he should have omitted it.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, a voice echoed through the hall.

"I impeached Yushitai Yushi Zhongcheng Wang Weiqi for abusing his power, using power for personal gain, forming cliques for personal gain, disregarding the law, and intending to commit rebellion. I hope Aye will punish him severely."

wow~~~

There was an uproar in the main hall. Wang Wei took the position of Censor Zhongcheng, who was on the fifth rank. Zhenguan, the third rank, was already considered a high official.

And shouldn’t everyone be impeached by Wang Wei? Why are there still people impeaching Wang Wei, the second-in-command of the Yushitai? What kind of courage? This is a provocation to the censor. They usually bully others. Whenever someone bullies them.

If this fails, there will be so many censors in the entire censorship station impeaching you every day. The literati are the best in the world at making up lies.

When the time comes, you will tell me every day that you intend to rebel. After a long time, it will be either shit or shit.

This King Ji is indeed brave!

"Oh, do you have any evidence? Prince Ji, you are not the censor, so you can report the news. You have to come up with evidence." Li Shimin looked expressionless and had a business-like attitude.

"Your Majesty, if His Royal Highness Prince Ji has no evidence, I will impeach Prince Ji for falsely accusing the court official and frame Zhongliang. I am loyal to the Tang Dynasty and to His Majesty." Wang Weiqi was a little confused when he just heard that Li Shen was impeaching him. .

Is this King Ji going crazy today? He is being impeached for no reason.

"Qi Aye, of course there is evidence." After Li Shen finished speaking, he asked Wang Weitu

"Wang Yushi, I would like to ask you, did you go to the magistrate of Wannian County a few days ago and ask him to send an officer to patrol the street where your Wang family's business is done? And asked him to arrest anyone who makes trouble. Catch him, or drive him away if he can’t catch him. Is what this king said true?”

After hearing Li Shen's words, Wang Weiqiu was convinced that this trivial matter was nothing. There was no powerful official in Chang'an who had not asked Wannian County and Chang'an County to handle matters.

Besides, it’s useless if you say you don’t have this matter. It will be clear if you call Wannian County Magistrate for a confrontation.

So he said calmly: "This happened because someone from your Chamber of Commerce caused trouble in my Wang family cloth shop. That's why I did it."

Wang Weitu was not a vegetarian, and he brought down Li Shen's Chamber of Commerce with just one sentence.

"Wang Yushi, there have been a lot of things going on in my palace recently, so I don't know about the outside world. Since the people from our Chamber of Commerce are causing trouble.

Wang Yushi can report it to the official, but Wannian County dare not arrest him, so let Jinwu Guard arrest him. The Jinwu Guards dare not arrest you, but you can report it to me. I will never tolerate the death of relatives in my righteousness.

If it doesn't work, you can complain to Yongzhou Prefecture, Dali Temple, and the Ministry of Punishment. Catch all these troublemaking thieves. But why didn't you arrest anyone? Or are you simply accusing me falsely? "

"This..." Wang Weiqi was speechless. Li Shen was actually right. Since there are people in the chamber of commerce who are causing trouble and violating laws and disciplines, you can arrest them. But the problem is that no one dares to catch these dudes.

Moreover, this group of people ran faster than anyone else, and the government officials couldn't catch them at all.

"According to the law of the Tang Dynasty, those who are not directly subordinate cannot be transferred. Although you are the fifth rank, you are subordinate to Yushitai and have no right to order Wannian County. I am impeaching you for abusing your power. Do you agree?" Li Shen felt that he It's really like divine help.

"This... Your Majesty, I did not order Wannian County Magistrate. I just asked Wannian County for a favor. My Wang Family Cloth Shop is disrupted by people every day and cannot operate, so I asked Wannian County for help." Wang Wei It is a serious crime to take orders from Wannian County, which is the yamen of Chang'an City.

"In this case, I am not wrong in impeaching you for seeking personal gain with power. Is it considered that you mobilized the officials of Wannian County for your own benefit?"

"This..." Wang Weiqi was speechless for a moment.

"Your Majesty, this is also because some thieves in the capital are always causing trouble in the Wang family. Wang Yushi also asked Wannian County for help. It is reasonable and legal for the government officials to arrest the thieves."

(Note: In the early Tang Dynasty, Chang'an City was bounded by the middle line. The west side belonged to Chang'an County and the east side belonged to Wannian County. Jingzhao Yin was not established in the early Tang Dynasty. It was called Yongzhou Prefecture in the early Tang Dynasty and was later changed to Jingzhao Yin. So The author guesses that the word Jingzhao Weidu was spread only in the later period. So you don’t have to worry about it when reading a novel.)
