Prince of the Tang Dynasty: Signing in began with harming Li Shimin

Chapter 296

"Report!!!"

"Your Highness!

More than three hundred Confucian scholars are coming to the palace, wanting to see the empress. "

Tongyou trail.

A personal guard rushed to report.

Su Jing was stunned when he heard the words, and asked suspiciously: "Why does this person ask to see the queen mother?"

"This……"

The personal guard concluded for a while.

Taking a cautious look at Su Jing, he boldly replied: "His Royal Highness.

Early this morning, there were people spreading rumors in the city.

It is said that Cui Inspector Cui's search of Yangzhou brothels is to capture divas and prostitutes for His Royal Highness to enjoy.

so...

Is it..."

"So these literati who have nothing to do all day want to sue this palace to gain their name?!

snort!

They are so brave!

It's impossible to really think that this palace is the king of the Zhao family! "

Su Jing scolded angrily, waved his hand and said: "Call the guards to go with me to have a look.

I want to see today, who dares to break ground on Tai Sui's head! "

"promise!"

……

"His Royal Highness is so stubborn, I will beg to see the empress!"

"right!

His Highness plundered the prostitutes of a state to enjoy them, which is really an act of obscenity!

I also ask the empress to give justice to the people of Yangzhou! "

"If you don't punish severely this time, where is the law of the Tang Dynasty?

I have followed the teachings of the saints for decades, and I have no regrets even though I die! "

"right!

I wait to die without regret! "

"..."

The crowd outside the palace was passionate.

Confucius said to achieve benevolence, and Mencius said to obtain righteousness.

The literati who used to be gentle and elegant, now all have ferocious expressions on their heads.

In the eyes of a group of Confucian scholars, they are complaining for the people of the world.

Just relying on today's act of sacrificing his life for righteousness, he will be famous in the world and history in the future.

It's just that the Tang Dynasty is not the Later Song Dynasty, and there is no talk of ruling the world with the scholar-bureaucrats.

Therefore, it is not normal for hundreds of Confucian scholars to gather together like today to sue the current crown prince.

There is obviously another conspiracy in this!

"Xiao Guizi, does the queen mother have any orders from Yi?"

Inside the palace gatehouse.

Su Jing frowned and asked in a low voice.

Xiao Guizi stepped forward when she heard the words, and bowed in response: "Return to Your Highness. Your Majesty is going boating on the lake with Miss Louise, and she doesn't want to be disturbed by outsiders.

But the empress has something to say:

The imperial court treated literati sons kindly, and promoted the imperial examinations to select scholars for the benefit of the royal family of Li and Tang Dynasties.

If the scholars in the world do not respect the Sacred Heart and commit crimes below, the imperial examination will not be held. "

"hiss!"

Su Jing took a breath, and only then did he understand the danger.

What Yangzhou scholars have done today is tantamount to committing a crime of forcing the palace.

Once this matter is reported back to the capital, the officials of the aristocratic family will definitely rise up and attack it.

Even if His Majesty Li Er was unwilling, he had no choice but to comply with the request of the officials.

And once the imperial examination system is abolished, how will the Li Tang royal family prevent the family from eroding the imperial power in the future.

Could this be the family's counterattack?

But if this is the case, why did the aristocratic family abandon this method in Chang'an?

What's more, the human wax incident just happened last night, and hundreds of people knocked on the door today, which is really too coincidental.

"Come on!

Let me arrest all these people.

But if there are rebels, they will be killed without mercy! "

"promise!"

……

"Squeak..."

The closed palace gate was slowly opened, and the literati were excited when they saw it.

Just when everyone was overjoyed, they saw more than a hundred guards of the Eastern Palace wearing armor and riding out quickly.

"This is……"

"Snapped!!!"

"what!!!"

"The officers and soldiers beat people!

Officers and soldiers beat people! "

"Run!

Officers and soldiers killed! "

"Dad!

Come and save me! "

More than a hundred guards skillfully surrounded the people in the middle, brandishing their horsewhips and beating them as soon as they saw them.

But the hundreds of scholars who originally shouted to sacrifice their lives for righteousness scattered and fled like scattered sand in an instant.

They came this time for the sake of fame, how could they really lay down their lives for the prostitutes in the brothel!

"His Majesty has said:

The imperial court will never punish people for their words!

Could it be that His Highness's move today is to resist the edict and not obey it? "

Cui Zhong was hit with whips several times, and his skin was ripped apart.

Seeing that there was no way to escape, he had no choice but to yell loudly.

"stop!"

Su Jing smiled slightly when he heard the words.

Standing on the gate tower of the palace with hands behind his back, he looked down at hundreds of Confucian scholars from a high position.

"Cui Zhong!

I just spared your life last night, I never thought that you would lead people to besiege the empress camp today.

It seems that your Cui family is really rebellious! "

Cui Zhong's complexion suddenly changed when he heard the words, and he argued anxiously: "Your Highness, how can you believe nonsense!

I am waiting for this trip to ask the empress to uphold justice, why do I say that the camp should be besieged? "

"Oh~

Ben Gong said yes, and no.

When was it your turn to defend yourself in vain! "

"you……"

"What are you?

Go away and stay!

After I finish my business, I will come to have fun with you!

If you dare to say a word, you will be beheaded on the spot to show the public! "

Cui Zhong was extremely ashamed and indignant when he heard the words, but he really didn't dare to argue a word.

Seeing this, Su Jing smiled in satisfaction, and waved loudly: "Xiao Guizi!"

"The servant is here."

"Write down the names of the rebels, and immediately send troops to raid their homes!"

"promise!"

"Your Highness!

I am wronged! "

"Yes, Your Highness!

I'm only waiting to see the empress, and I have no resentment! "

"Don't catch me, I'm not a traitor!

Your Highness, please forgive me! "

"..."

"His Royal Highness calm down!

Your Highness calm down! "

Just as hundreds of scholars were wailing for their lives.

A group of Yangzhou officials came in a hurry.

Seeing this, the guards of the Eastern Palace rode forward with a sullen face, firmly blocking him from the palace gate.

Seeing this, Cui Liang froze, suppressed his anger and cupped his hands and shouted: "His Royal Highness!

My Yangzhou scholars are all loyal to the emperor and patriotic, and there is absolutely no one who is planning to do anything wrong.

I must have been bewitched by others when I came here this time, and I beg your Highness to have a lot of them, so please forgive them once! "

"Hehe~

Master Cui, I haven't reached the crown yet, so why did you say that? "

Su Jing sneered with disdain.

Looking at the hundreds of scholars with strange faces below, he ordered loudly: "Zhao Quan!

Take down these rogue thieves immediately!

After I invite my mother, I will search the house and get someone! "

"The last general takes orders!"

Zhao Quan went away in response.

The faces of everyone outside the palace changed drastically in an instant.

If this matter is really pursued.

Not only the lives of those who participated today will be lost, but all Yangzhou officials will also be held accountable by Li Er.

And everyone's hard work over the past ten years will be wiped out in an instant.

Seeing that, Cui Liang was really helpless, so he had to persuade again with a shy face: "His Royal Highness!

Scholars are ignorant and ignorant, so they are bewitched by villains.

I must try my best to find out who is behind this, and please forgive them once, Your Highness. "

"Oh?

Master Cui means..."

Su Jing's heart moved when he heard this.

Cui Liang gritted his teeth, bit the bullet and said: "Report to Your Highness.

The minister thought that what happened today was very suspicious!

I, a scholar in Yangzhou, have always been cautious.

If there were no thieves behind the scenes to instigate them, how could they gather crowds.

In my opinion, this matter must be related to what happened last night.

Presumably the thieves were worried that His Highness would carry out a strict investigation, so they resorted to this shady trick of delaying. "

"is it?

I don't know why Master Cui is so determined?

Don't you have evidence? "

Su Jing waved his hand, preventing the guards from immediately retreating to the sides.

Seeing this, Cui Liang adjusted his official robes and walked to the gate of the palace. "Your Highness.

After Weichen returned to the mansion last night, he specifically told the dog not to step out of the door, let alone be disrespectful to His Royal Highness.

Quanzi has always been well-behaved and obedient, and he would never dare to disobey the teachings of this humble minister unless provoked by others.

Thinking about it this time, the culprit must be targeting the humble minister.

Moreover, Wei Chen was ordered to track down Ren Wa, and it was indeed a bit too coincidental to be plotted by someone at this time. "

Su Jing didn't comment when he heard the words.

Looking up at the distant sky and thinking for a moment, he frowned and asked, "Do you know who did it?"

"Return to Your Highness. According to the yamen servant, this was done by the son of Wei Xuan."

"Oh~

The Yangzhou government is really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger! "

"Come on!

See you in the front hall of Xuanyang state officials! "

"promise!"
