Traveling through the Gaowu Tang Dynasty, Li Kuan and Li Shimin became the second sons of the Prince

Chang'an in July is like a furnace.

When Dang Renhong's confession was delivered to Emperor Li Er, His Majesty Li Er was completely furious!

"This bastard! This bastard!" In the Taiji Hall, His Majesty Li II threw down the memorial in his hand and stood up from the dragon throne: "Someone come! Someone come!"

"Your Majesty..." Zhang Nan, who was guarding outside the palace, hurried into the palace and said respectfully, "I'm here."

"Go and call Zhangsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Du Ru and Wei Zheng to me!" At this moment, Emperor Li II's desire to kill someone had reached its peak - Dang Renhong, this bastard, actually embezzled nearly one million yuan while in office. What's even more ironic is that the number one hero who made him confess his guilt and surrender to him was actually his own eldest son.

Ah……

His Majesty Li II could almost imagine the arrogance and mockery on that boy's face after he dealt with the matter: Stupid emperor, is that all? Is this how you judge people?

It's so funny!

Thinking of this, Emperor Li II became even more angry!

But the most important thing right now is to find a way to clean up the mess - the position of the governor of Guangzhou cannot be left vacant, because Feng Ang has never been very honest, and I will never give Feng Ang a chance. Lingnan must not let the Feng family have the final say! "

Stop gossiping.

Half an incense stick later, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Zhangsun Wuji and Wei Zheng appeared in the Taiji Hall. After learning what happened in Lingnan from Emperor Li II, everyone fell silent.

how to say……

Your Highness the King of Chu... This gentleman does have something to say...

He actually saw through Feng Ang's conspiracy, and more importantly, he saved the lives of Dang Renhong and Dang Lingfei.

"Your Majesty, I think there are three urgent matters at the moment." As the prime minister, Fang Xuanling's method of handling situations has always been sophisticated: "First, we must immediately send reinforcements to Hongzhou to warn the Feng family not to act rashly; second, you must quickly decide on the candidate for the new governor of Guangzhou - and this person must leave as soon as possible, preferably before the departure time mentioned by Dang Renhong in the memorial - that is, arrive in Guangzhou within two months; as for the third..." Fang Xuanling said this, with a slightly hesitant tone: "I think, should you issue an edict to reward His Royal Highness the King of Chu? After all, he does have merits..."

"..."If there was anything that made His Majesty Li Er more uncomfortable than Dang Renhong's betrayal - it might be King Chu's wisdom and decisiveness.

Looking at the four ministers waiting for him, His Majesty Li II thought for a moment and felt that what Fang Xuanling said was not unreasonable: "Well, let's do as you say, but... Dang Renhong... he surrendered himself and was able to voluntarily hand over the stolen money, so I... I want to spare his life."

"Ha..." Hearing what His Majesty Li Er said, Wei Zheng suddenly sneered: "Your Majesty, is this the reason why you asked us to come here?"

"Dang Renhong is one of my old subordinates after all..." Emperor Li II felt that he was once again offended by Wei Zheng, this presumptuous fellow: "I must always remember our old friendship."

"Ah..." Suddenly, Du Ruhui, who had been silent, seemed to suddenly wake up: "Your Majesty, considering our old friendship... it seems... it deserves to be written about in the history books! Wei Zheng! Don't make such a fuss! Didn't Dang Renhong confess his crime and surrender himself? Moreover, he is still holding on to his position as the governor of Guangzhou, making meritorious contributions while serving his sentence, and has also handed over all the stolen money--"

"——How could he have collected all the stolen money?" Wei Zheng began to cooperate with Du Ruhui tacitly: "After he embezzled the money, didn't he squander it? Did he really not spend a penny? Did he keep it all?!"

"According to Tang law, if he embezzled money and then voluntarily handed it over, his sentence can indeed be reduced appropriately." Fang Xuanling saw that Duke Wei and Duke Du had already started to play a combination of skills, so he naturally wanted to get involved: "But if the amount of money he handed over does not match the actual amount of embezzlement... Your Majesty, this is a crime of deceiving the emperor!"

Well, after the cooperation of Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and Wei Zheng, Dang Renhong, who could have barely managed to survive, might now have to face the "Nine Clans Defense War".

“Your Majesty, I don’t think Dang Renhong would lie…” Changsun Wuji saw that His Majesty Li Er was now isolated and helpless, so he made a prompt decision and began to help: “Perhaps… His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu would help with the stolen money for the sake of the overall situation. As everyone knows, the family business left to him by Empress Taimu is huge, so…”

"Duke Zhao, do you have evidence to prove that His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu gave Dang Renhong the stolen money?" The person Wei Zheng hated the most now was Zhangsun Wuji: "If not, what is your intention in framing the prince of the dynasty?!"

“What if there is?!” Changsun Wuji is also a man with a bad temper. What? You can fight together but I am not allowed to fight alone?

"If there is, you have to provide solid evidence before you can say such a thing." Du Ruhui said at this time: "So, Duke Zhao framed His Royal Highness the King of Chu when there was absolutely no evidence. Such behavior is truly despicable and unacceptable by the law!"

"I am his uncle after all!" Zhang Sun Wuji was so angry at Du Ruhui's scolding that his eyes turned red: "As an uncle--"

"Yes, no." Fang Xuanling felt that Zhangsun Wuji seemed to be really arrogant now: "His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu is not only your Zhangsun Wuji's nephew, he is also the wise king of our Tang Dynasty! His achievements in expanding the territory cannot be erased by sycophants!"

Ok!

As soon as Mr. Fang said this, the already tense atmosphere in the hall was completely ignited.

"Fang Xuanling! You are talking nonsense!" Changsun Wuji always boasted that his Qi-cultivation skills were top-notch in the world, but he could not withstand Fang Xuanling's final personal attack: "I will not allow flatterers to erase me."

"That's enough!" Seeing Fang Xuanling about to fight back after hearing what Changsun Wuji said, Emperor Li II immediately frowned and shouted coldly, "I called you here to solve the problem, not to have a quarrel!"

"Your Majesty, I have already given you a solution to the problem. If you think it is reasonable, please make a decision as soon as possible, and we can execute it immediately." Fang Xuanling saw that His Majesty Li II was going to rescue Zhangsun Wuji, so he didn't want to continue to pressure the narrow-minded Duke.

However, at this moment, his contempt for someone in his heart once again rose to a new level.
