Chapter 301 Useless Descendants

Lu Dongzan abandoned more than half of his people, escaped from this incident, and sacrificed their most important partner in the Tang Dynasty. Although Lu Dongzan felt uncomfortable in his heart, from the current situation It seems that it is quite difficult for him to get out on his own, and it is simply impossible to keep more.

According to Li Xiang's original idea, this guy should be kept, but Li Xiang also analyzed his importance in Tubo. If he was forced to keep this guy, then a war between the two countries would definitely be inevitable. , his status in the Tubo Kingdom is equivalent to that of Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling combined. Even if the Tubo people are no longer willing to go to war with the Tang Dynasty, their prime minister died in the Tang Dynasty. Is this war still far away?

"Does anyone in the Feng family have an explanation?"

It was Li Shimin who spoke, but when Lu Dongzan withdrew, more than 90% of the ministers also retreated. They each performed their duties and now they all need to go to their work stations to discuss the entire Tang Dynasty. , only a small number of people are enough.

Lu Xiugang, as the commander of the Imperial City Si Yamen, Li Xiang has handed over all the documents and evidence to him, and now it is up to him to report on this matter.

"Long live the Qi report, we have conducted surprise interrogations on some of them, and the conclusions obtained have been verified by us. Most of them are true. A small number of people will be confronted with the Boling Cui family."

Lu Xiugang said very helplessly, if other families were involved, the people from the Imperial City Si Yamen would have surrounded them and would come to arrest them, but when it came to the Bolingcui family, they had to get the emperor's order. Okay, otherwise this might be a civil strife, and it would be the largest civil strife in the history of the Tang Dynasty, even surpassing the Xuanwu Gate Incident.

After hearing this report from his subordinates, Li Shimin basically understood that we did not wrongly accuse the Boling Cui family, and they were indeed in secret collusion with the Tubo Kingdom.

"Father, I think this matter is all his fault. If there hadn't been such a big commotion last night, the court would not have been put here. If we take action, if we fail, then our Tang Dynasty will not be able to do anything at all. Stable, it can even cause other major families to follow suit, but if he doesn't take action, where is the majesty of the court? Therefore, I think he should be punished. He was the one who pushed the Tang Dynasty into such a dangerous situation and should be abolished. He is the great grandson."

Li Tai had been quiet for a while, but he couldn't be quiet anymore today. He hadn't spoken just now. After a period of analysis, he thought that today was an opportunity. If he could pull Li Xiang down, maybe he could still There is a chance to ascend to the throne, but if Li Xiang remains firmly seated in the East Palace, his future results will be worrying.

"Second brother is right. Li Xiang has a poor grasp of the current situation. If the Tang Dynasty is handed over to such a person, the entire foundation will soon be ruined, and the achievements of father and grandfather will be lost." ."

"My son, please reconsider."

"Brother, please reconsider..."

"Grandson's reconsideration..."

What surprised Li Shimin was that the original plan was to resolve the conflict with the Boling Cui family, which could not only take them down, but also ensure the stability of the Tang Dynasty. But he didn't expect that such a group of people suddenly appeared, and they actually let him After abolishing Li Xiang's position as grandson, do you people still have the Tang Dynasty in your hearts?

When Li Tai stepped out just now, Li Xiang saw many people eager to try. Some people Li Xiang didn't even know what they were doing. He didn't expect that they would now be on his opposite side. In fact, this was very... Normally, life would definitely be difficult for them after Li Xiang became the grandson. After all, they were opposed to Li Chengqian in the past. Except for King Wu Li Ke, almost all the princes and grandsons were on Li Xiang's opposite side.

The reason why these people stood at the innermost position of Li Xiang was that they were deceived by the Li Tai brothers. On the other hand, they themselves could feel that once Li Xiang ascended to the throne, he would never be able to keep their glory and wealth. position, because Li Xiang is a very pragmatic person. If the number of royal members increases, their benefits will definitely be reduced, and they will even be sent to poor places. Therefore, Li Xiang will never be allowed to ascend to the high position.

Seeing so many people opposing Li Xiang, Changsun Wuji's face relaxed. Now that he was on Li Xiang's side, he was originally thinking about how to plead for Li Xiang, but he didn't expect that this fool Li Tai would My nephew once again assisted me. You allowed Li Xiang to be on the opposite side of all the members of the royal family. Your father is the one who knows how to defeat the strong and support the weak.

There was a reason why Changsun Wuji was able to become the number one minister in the Zhenguan Dynasty. His understanding of Li Shimin could be said to be extremely proficient. When Li Shimin saw so many people opposing Li Xiang, he felt a little protective in his heart. Think about it, Li Xiang has done almost everything that is beneficial to the Tang Dynasty since he became an official. As for you people, you rest on your credit book every day and rest on your laurels. Moreover, this credit book belongs to me and has nothing to do with you.

"enough……"

There were other princes and grandsons who wanted to stand up, but after hearing the two words Li Shimin, these people stopped their steps abruptly, as if it was a little different from what Li Tai described.

According to what Li Tai described before, as long as they, the royal children, all stand up, then Li Xiang will definitely have no status with the emperor. Even if Li Xiang cannot be abolished today, it will still bring a lot of benefits to Li Xiang. It's a big trouble. We have achieved initial success, but looking at the emperor's expression now, it seems that we have done something wrong. It is us who the emperor hates.

"This matter will be discussed later."

More than 20 members of the royal family knelt down, and the emperor answered them directly in four words.

If he only had his own sons and grandsons, I'm afraid Li Shimin would be even more powerful, but there are also some brothers of Li Shimin and some side royal families, so Li Shimin can't go too far.

"Qingque, you have now become a responsible person for the imperial court. So tell me, how should we deal with the Boling Cui family? The evidence is there. Should we arrest them?"

The emperor changed the subject, walked down from the dragon chair, and then came to the side of Li Tai. He used to love Li Tai, but now he is so bored with Li Tai. After all, you are also a member of the royal family. When the court is in danger, You are still thinking about internal fighting. Can this throne be handed over to you?
