The King of Zhao impeached the Emperor in front of all the officials.
This made the officials 'eyelids twitch. Could it be that they wanted to reverse the verdict of the incident at the Black Tortoise Sect a few months ago?
The King of Zhao wanted to seek justice for the dead Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji???
Who let him in?
If you want to die, don't bring us along.
A moment ago, they thought that Li Yuanjing's future was limitless, but now, they thought that he would not live past today.
Li Shi Min's bright smile froze, and he gave off a cold aura without saying a word.
"Nonsense!"
"After His Majesty ascended the throne, he reorganized the three provinces and six ministries, dismissed officials, and punished corrupt officials. He changed the atmosphere of the officialdom and made the people sing praises of him. His Majesty can be said to be a wise king.”
Zhangsun Wuji stood up and proudly said to Li Yuanjing. Then, he cupped his hands and asked Li Shimin,"Your Majesty, please drag King Zhao out and punish him severely.”
"Imperial Brother just pardoned me of my crimes. Is Lord Zhangsun going to defy the emperor's orders?”
Li Yuanjing showed no fear at all, leaving Zhangsun Wuji speechless.
He did not waver in the slightest in the face of the criticism of the officials.
Wei Zheng, Xue Wanche, and the others who had just submitted to Li Shiming wiped their sweat for Li Yuanjing.
Awesome!
"Tell me, King Zhao. What crime have I committed?"
Li Shimin was not only a man of his word, but he was also broad-minded, which made Fang Xuanling and the others admire him for being a wise ruler.
"Your Majesty has committed three crimes!"
Li Yuanjing imitated the lord's salute. The crowd saw a cute boy impeaching the emperor, and it was very funny. They felt that this impeachment was not so serious.
"Speak!"
"The first crime is that His Majesty imprisoned the Retired Emperor in Daxing Palace. Not only did he send people to monitor him, but he also restricted his freedom. I have never seen a child treat his father like this.”
After saying that, the officials heaved a sigh of relief. As long as it was not about the Black Tortoise Sect.
Li Shi Min's expression softened.
Kong Yingda and the other ministers looked at the King of Zhao with admiration.
The King of Zhao impeached the Emperor for his father's sake. His courage was commendable.
Li Yuan's old partner, Prime Minister Pei Ji, was also happy for Li Yuan for having such a good son.
"The second crime is that His Majesty mistreated the Retired Emperor and the Imperial Concubines, deducting their salaries, reducing their expenses, and letting them live in the cold and damp Daxing Palace. The children of the people would rather sleep in the haystack than let their parents sleep on the couch. However, it was the opposite for the Emperor.”
After the Retired Emperor moved into Daxing Palace, the King of Zhao and his mother Mo Lifang also moved into the harsh environment of Daxing Palace.
Whoosh!
The officials immediately understood that this King Zhao was using the Retired Emperor's name to secretly stand up for them and Concubine Mo.
They all sighed with emotion at how this kid was using the tiger skin as a big flag.
Zhangsun Wuji stood out again and retorted loudly,
"After His Majesty ascended the throne, in order to put an end to extravagance, he ordered the harem to tighten their clothes and go on a diet. Not only Daxing Palace where the Retired Emperor lived, but Taiji Palace where the Empress lived had also reduced the number of palace maids and expenses. This was not because the Emperor was abusing or targeting anyone. The Emperor had always been fair and just.”
He then shouted at Li Shi Min," Your Majesty, this King of Zhao is so young, yet he's already using his petty heart to judge a gentleman's belly. He's truly detestable. He's disgracing the royal family."”
Who was he trying to fool?
This king has already obtained evidence, just afraid that you will quibble.
Li Yuanjing puffed up his face and looked extremely cute, which made Li Shimin hate him.
Zhangsun Wuji saw that the other party was ruining the emperor's reputation and was disappointed that he did not live up to his expectations. He said with tears in his eyes,"I implore you to pull this person down so that this brat won't spread rumors in the imperial court.”
This old and young duo echoed each other in the imperial court. It did not seem like they were attacking political enemies, but rather like they were acting in the main hall.
Li Shimin suddenly felt that Yuan Jing and the auxiliary machine were very interesting. He said in a deep voice,
"King Zhao, if you have nothing to say, I will punish you heavily. You can impeach me, but if you don't have any evidence, it's slander!”
As soon as these words were said, all the civil and military officials in the court sighed at the fact that the Emperor's chest was like an ocean that could accommodate hundreds of rivers, and that he was particular about handling affairs with reason and evidence.
"Of course there is evidence. Before Chen Younger Brother went to court, he went to the Empress 'sister-in-law and found out about the harem's expenses. When the Empress 'sister-in-law heard that Daxing Palace was so unbearable, she said that she would have a good chat with her Imperial Brother tonight.”
"There are seventeen imperial concubines in Daxing Palace, and each of them is paid three strings of money per month. As for the concubines in the imperial harem, each of them is paid ten strings of money per month.”
Li Yuanjing revealed his pearly white teeth, and his cheeks even had dimples as he smiled, as if he had won a battle.
Zhangsun Wuji didn't expect Li Yuanjing to not only have a sharp tongue but also go to the harem to collect evidence. He was instantly dumbfounded.
Li Shiming immediately held his forehead. Thinking that the Guanyin maid would come to talk to him tonight, he gritted his teeth and looked at the little boy who had won.
You win!
He even found a powerful helper.
Li Shi Min saw that Zhangsun Wuji still wanted to retort, so he coughed to stop him, hoping that Wuji would stop causing trouble.
Zhangsun Wuji was like a defeated rooster as he retreated back into the court. He felt blood dripping from his face and was extremely ashamed.
Li Shimin wanted to end this farce, but he couldn't lose his image of being humble and accepting advice. He suppressed his anger and asked,
"What about the third sect?"
Li Yuanjing continued to impeach and severely criticized,
"As an emperor, you don't respect your parents. What role model do the people of the world have? This is the third crime."
"Imperial Brother, you are gravely mistaken!"
Swoosh!
Li Shi Min suddenly stood up, his hands trembling. He wished he could do as Zhangsun Wuji had said and drag this little bastard out and give him twenty strokes, then throw him into a saltwater tank for half a day, and finally throw him back to Daxing Palace.
However, this would ruin her character.
Chu Suiliang, the historian, had already raised his pen and was staring at Li Shimin's every word and action. It was obvious that he wanted to record his next words and actions in the annals of history.
Seeing this, Li Shi Min tried to comfort himself.
Endure, endure!
I bear the humiliation.
I humbly accept advice.
I'll take in all rivers.
I am a wise king.
If I don't make some achievements and wash away the stain of Black Tortoise Sect, I will be nailed to the pillar of shame in history.
I've already killed Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji. Not only can I not torture Li Yuanjing, but I also have to treat him like an ancestor.
However, everyone felt that this kid was too bold.
Not only did he want to impeach His Majesty, but he also wanted to slap His Majesty in the face in the main hall.
Everyone trembled as they waited for His Majesty's thunderous rage. Unexpectedly, His Majesty sat back on the dragon throne. After a while, he said,
"I was wrong!"
Li Yuanjing made a " yeah " gesture in his heart as he felt the stunned gazes around him.
Heavens!
The entire court was shocked. What was wrong with this world?!!
A little brat could impeach His Majesty, and His Majesty even took the initiative to admit his mistake.
As expected, His Majesty was too wise.
The officials shouted in unison,"
"Your Majesty is wise!"
Li Shimin didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He suddenly felt that Yuan Jing wasn't so hateful anymore.
Looking at the cute little boy, she didn't know why she had the thought of getting close to him.
