Commander Lu, Your Majesty has come to see you." In front of Lu Qingyun's cell, Wang Jia opened the cell door, walked in, pushed Lu Qingyun and said.

"Your Majesty? Your Majesty, long live your Majesty." Lu Qingyun woke up with a start, looked at Lu Zhaoci at the cell door, his eyes suddenly turned red, he fell to the ground and burst into tears.

"You all stand down! Let's talk to him." Lu Zhaoci glanced at Lu Qingyun who was kneeling on the ground, and then sighed and waved his hand.

"Yes!" Qin Jiudao and others did not dare to neglect, and retreated gently, closing the cell door. In an instant, there were only two people in the entire prison, Lu Zhaoci and Lu Qingyun.

Lu Zhaoci glanced around, not afraid of the filth in the prison, and sat down on the thatched wooden bed on the side, while Lu Qingyun knelt on the ground again.

"When Lian had just regained his sanity, he was ordered by his ancestors to rectify the Golden Eagle Hall. At that time, you followed Lian. After Lian entered the pass, he formed the Jin Yi Guard. You were the first commander of the Jin Yi Guard. Because of the Jin Yi Guard, Lian

You, Lu Qingyun, are indispensable for your ability to rise to the rank of emperor so easily. That’s why Lian Lian ignored the objections of the ministers and granted you a title. But what Lian doesn’t understand is why you have reached this point. Jin Yiwei

It's an official weapon of the imperial court, but you used it privately and raided the whole city. Didn't you think of the consequences of this?" Lu Zhaoci asked softly.

"Woo hoo, I'm guilty, I'm guilty." Lu Qingyun kept kowtowing, and there were bursts of banging sounds in the prison.

"I want to ask you, what benefits did Master Cui Ren give you to take the blame for him?" Lu Zhaoci frowned and snorted coldly: "Could it be that he can make you reach a higher level?"

"Your Majesty, the Imperial Guard is your Majesty's private weapon. Your Majesty is kind. No matter how big a mistake I make, Your Majesty will let me die well. But what will happen after Your Majesty? I am worried that I will be the heir of others, and I will be poisoned by others in the future. I have no choice but to do so.

After that, he asked Mr. Cui for protection." Lu Qingyun prostrated and said: "Your Majesty, the Jin Yiwei is very powerful in the court and the public, but, Your Majesty, the Jin Yiwei also makes the ministers tremble with fear. For the person who leads the Jin Yiwei, those courtiers have already

Even if I have resentment in my heart, once I lose power, not only will I be the unlucky one, but my descendants will also be affected, so I have no choice but to do so!"

"It's a last resort, it's a last resort." Lu Zhaoci's face was cold, with a trace of disdain on the corner of his mouth, and he snorted coldly: "What is the last resort for you? You are simply obsessed with power. Do you think Lian doesn't know that? You

Are you worried that after the next emperor comes to power, he will clean up the Jin Yiwei and you will no longer be able to control the Jin Yiwei? You are worried that Lian will one day feel that you know too much and will kill you to silence you. Lu Qingyun, do you think Lian is right?

Humph, you are worried about your life and your wealth, why worry about anything else."

"I'm guilty, I'm guilty. Lu Qingyun was lying on the ground and didn't dare to move. Apparently he was convinced by Lu Zhaoci.

"But what makes Lian very strange is why you want to take the blame for Master Cui Ren. You must know that the leak of secrets was not done by you. Why do you have to admit it?" Lu Zhaoci asked again: "This is what Lian is doing."

I came here this time and wanted to know the answer.”

"I did it." Lu Qingyun's face showed a complicated look, but he soon returned to a calm expression without any abnormalities.

"You are so stupid!" Lu Zhaoci shook his head and said: "Master Cui Ren did not spread the secret leak. Why should you take the blame for him? Although he is stupid, he has been following Lian for many years and will not know how to do it.

You are so stupid that you want those low-level officers to threaten the Union, and you say you will take the blame for him. In fact, it is just a redundant move, so why do you do it?"

"Your Majesty, you?" Lu Qingyun's expression changed after hearing this. "Who are these people who can enter the Xuande Palace? They are all cunning and cunning. Although you are in charge of the Jin Yiwei, in fact, they are not in the officialdom.

How do you know these things? Lu Zhaoci sighed softly.

"Your Majesty, do you also think that Master Cui did not do this?" Lu Qingyun looked at Lu Zhaoci in surprise and said.

"You know it too, do you know who did it?" Lu Zhaoci's eyes flashed and he stared at Lu Qingyun and asked.

"I guess it's Wei Ting," Lu Qingyun said after thinking for a while.

"You finally said it," Lu Zhaoci sighed softly. He looked deeply at the minister kneeling on the ground. This villain had been following him for many years and made great contributions to him, but what he did was...

What makes him unbearable is the provocation to the imperial power. Based on this, he cannot keep him. In fact, his worry is correct, because an organization like Jinyiwei cannot be controlled by one person forever.

"Your Majesty, I know that I will die. Please forgive my two sons for the sake of my many years of service to the Tang Dynasty. I don't ask them to be high-ranking officials and rich salary, but I only want them to be able to work in peace and peace of mind.

Just the common people. Your Majesty, Xiao Lu Qingyun kept knocking his head and cried bitterly.

"Don't worry, Lian is not a tyrant, and what you have committed is not the crime of exterminating the nine tribes. Lian will not kill your two sons. Of course, the prerequisite is that they do not violate the court's laws." Lu Zhaoci said calmly: "And Lian will not kill your two sons."

I won't kill you, you will stay here from now on!" He stood up and walked out.

"Your Majesty?" Lu Qingyun was shocked when he heard this. He suddenly raised his head and looked at Lu Zhaoci's fleeing figure. He said, "It's a pity that Lu Zhaoci has left the army long ago."

His is just a long figure.

"Your Majesty." Outside the prison of the Ministry of Punishments, Wei Ting, the Minister of the Ministry of Punishments, and Wang Jia, the doctor of the Ministry of Punishments, etc., had been waiting for a long time. When they saw Lu Zhao resigned from the prison of the Ministry of Punishments, they quickly bowed down.

"Everyone, get up!" Lu Zhaoci glanced at Wei Ting and others, and said calmly: "That's it for now! The Lianhe will settle the case today! Lu Qingyun's crime is extremely heinous, but in the end he is also a hero. Although he has done it,

But because of his merits, Lian decided not to kill him, but to let him stay here for the rest of his life!"

"Your Majesty is kind." Wei Ting and others felt moved when they heard this, looked at each other, and said again.

"Go back to the palace." Lu Zhaoci glanced at everyone coldly and said to Qin Jiudao beside him. In an instant, Jianjia left the Criminal Department and headed towards the palace under Qin Jiudao's command.

"Hey! What's going on!" When the officials of the Ministry of Justice saw this, they were surprised. They looked at Jian Jia who was walking away, and then looked back at Wei Ting who was standing in front.

"Why is there not even a word of praise? Have we done something wrong to dissatisfy His Majesty?" Officials from the Ministry of Punishment all whispered to each other. Only Wei Ting in front showed an uncertain look on his face.

But Wang Gua remained silent and stood behind Wei Ting.

According to the trial of this case, the person who was promoted should be promoted. Even if he is not promoted, he can still get a praise. But now, it is better, there is not even a praise. This can't help but surprise people. What is going on?

? Could it be that the Punishment Department did something wrong somewhere, which is why this situation happened? Everyone was talking about it, and only Wei Ting and Wang Jia knew what was going on.

Lu Zhaoci's gaze was like a knife, sweeping over the two of them. Regardless of whether there was something wrong in their hearts, the two of them still heard a hint of coldness in Lu Zhaoci's voice. When they thought of this, the two of them couldn't help but shudder.

He shuddered, Lu Qingyun made a big mistake, but what kind of person is today, how could he be fooled by them so easily, maybe he has already guessed the trick in this.

"Brother Wang, tell Wei Ting, did you reveal that matter?" Wei Ting glanced at the people behind him and stared at Wang Jia with a cold look in his eyes. Ever since he learned the secrets of the imperial court

After the leak, he became uneasy. He is the minister of Xuande Hall. He naturally knows everything about Xuande Hall very clearly. He knows the personality characteristics of everyone in Xuande Hall in detail. Those who are in Xuande Hall

"How could the minister's mouth be so unpredictable? Some things can be revealed, but some things cannot be said nonsense." For example, this is the case, that cannot be said nonsense, otherwise it will be lost.

Wei Ting regretted that he had revealed the matter to Wang Jia in the first place. Now that the matter was committed, he did not suspect Wang Jia at first, but now, he had to suspect Wang Jia because Wang Jia

Everything he does is so weird.

Did he really take refuge in Master Cui Ren? The old Guandong family and the old Guanzhong family were enemies in the officialdom. How could they get together? But Wang Jia did it, and even came to persuade Lu Qingyun to take the blame for Master Cui Ren. This

Why? I'm afraid it's not only to get credit, but also to settle this matter as soon as possible. In this way, not only can he win favor with Master Cui Ren, but he can also get a chance to be promoted. When Wei Ting thought of this,

He couldn't help but clenched his steel teeth angrily, wishing he could bite Wang Jia in front of him into pieces.

"The lower official doesn't understand what the Lord is talking about. Wang Gua's face was dull, but his expression was respectful, he bowed his hands towards Wei Ting and said...

"Hmph, I hope you didn't tell anyone. Otherwise, hey, hey, he teased the two important officials of Xuande Palace, and even let Mr. Cui Renshi be imprisoned in the heavenly prison. I'm afraid this kind of situation is not something you, Mr. Wang Jiawang, can bear.

Look, Cui Renshi Master Cui is still in prison and has not been released yet. Wei Ting's mouth showed a cold look. He just heard clearly that the case was over, but as the main character in the case

, Lu Qingyun was imprisoned in the prison forever, and if nothing unexpected happened, he could only spend the rest of his life in the prison; and the other main character, Cui Renshi, was also imprisoned in the prison, and the same was true.

It was not released, and what is even more surprising is that there is no idea. The mystery of this makes people suspicious. Wang Fa's heart trembled when he heard this, and his face changed slightly. Although on the surface, he

I don't care, but I still feel uneasy in my heart at this moment. No matter when it is, no matter what the matter is, I am afraid of being serious. Once I become serious, there will be no secrets in anything. The secret was leaked to him by Wei Ting,

As long as both parties make this matter clear, it will be Wang Fa who suffers in the end.

"My lord, you are joking. I, Wang Jia, am just a small doctor. As an lord, Master Cui is still in prison. I wonder if you can see it, sir. I am afraid that your Majesty will not only give you something powerful this time to fight Master Cui."

Look, it is more likely that we will take the opportunity to eliminate Master Cui's power. Sir, this is your opportunity!" Wang Jia showed a look of respect on his face, cupped his hands and said: "Now in Xuande Hall, your Excellency is at the end.

Hehe, if you don’t like it, your role as Minister of the Ministry is far greater than that of the important ministers of Xuande Hall! When one or two people entered Fude Hall, it was to balance the situation in Fude Hall.” At this moment, Master Cui Ren said:

Your Excellency is imprisoned, Your Majesty, this is your chance!"

Wei Ting was startled when he heard this, stopped talking, and then sighed deeply. He had never thought about this kind of thing before, because he knew that the important ministers in Xuande Hall all followed Lu Zhaoci.

Long Laochen's deep trust in Lu Zhaoci was not comparable to that of his Guanzhong family. The reason why he joined Xuande Hall was to balance the balance of Xuande Hall and support this text. He had never thought about it. In Xuande Hall

Be unique and establish your own clique, but this time it is different. Wang Fa is right, Cui Renshi has great power, not to mention that there is a Guandong family behind this person, and he is not trusted by Lu Zhaoci. This time I am afraid there is

This is a good opportunity to eliminate the suspicion of power in Master Cui Ren's hands! Wei Ting suddenly felt that the Grandma Wang in front of him was no longer so annoying.

"Let's go!" Wei Ting took a breath, nodded lightly, and said: "I will report your merits to the emperor. I think a minister of the Ministry of Justice can still take it down. Don't worry! There are some things that you just know.

That’s all right. There’s no need for others to know. And we can’t let others know.”

"This subordinate knows." Wang Fa was secretly happy and said quickly: "After all, we are all Guanzhong aristocratic families, and we should take care of each other. Your Excellency has a high reputation in Guanzhong now, so you should raise the flag of Guanzhong!"

"I know about this." Wei Ting sighed and said: "Brother Wang, someone recently wrote to your Majesty to build a Yellow River channel and transport grain from the south of the Yangtze River to Chang'an. Your Majesty is considering this kind of thing. I always feel this

There is an article behind it.”

"Repair the Yellow River?" Wang Jia's face changed and he couldn't help but said: "The Yellow River is rebuilt every year. But it breaks almost every year. It's just a matter of whether the break is big or small. Your Majesty is kind and thinks of the people on both sides of the Yellow River. But these words

Then again, building the Yellow River every year costs a huge amount! The imperial court wants to set up a standing army again, can this be supported? "

"Yes." Wei Ting nodded and said: "You are right. This is a huge expenditure! Those people will not know that the finances of the imperial court are still relatively difficult now. Even if the Turks pay the first compensation

If it is shipped, it will probably be sent to the new army by Your Majesty to form a standing army. Where is the remaining money to use to overhaul the Yellow River?"

"Sir, I heard that the price of rice in Chang'an market has increased a lot recently." Wang Jia suddenly said in a low voice: "I heard that the cost of transporting this food from Jiangnan is very high!"

"What do you want to say?" Wei Ting said with a frown.

"Sir, I'm afraid there is something wrong with this. Master Cui was imprisoned, but for a few days, the Guandong aristocratic families just watched their leader being imprisoned. Now there are rumors in the Chang'an market that His Majesty is planning to depose the crown prince.

"My lord, the Guandong families are anxious. You know, these grains pass through Guandong!" Wang Gua lowered his head and said in a low voice.

"You mean the Guandong family is fighting back?" Wei Ting suddenly woke up and looked at Wang Jia in surprise.

"This is what the official guessed." Wang Jia raised his head, with a glint in his eyes, and sneered: "Your Majesty has unified the world, defeated the Turks, and has a high prestige. Now in the Tang Dynasty, officials are governing Qingming.

You have capable ministers and assistants in the court, and your majesty is wise and powerful, not like the former Sui Yan Emperor. Therefore, those people support your majesty, and those aristocratic families who want to confront your majesty openly and openly do not have the courage, so they can only

Take some crooked ways and force His Majesty from another angle. Perhaps, this matter has something to do with them."

"Yes, that makes sense." Wei Ting's eyes lit up and he sneered: "Yes, just as Brother Wang said, those people may have already taken action. But if His Majesty was so easy to deal with, he wouldn't have been able to force us to do so back then.

The Guanzhong family has taken the emperor's property from his hands." "Maybe, your Majesty already knows about it by this time." Wang Jia's mouth showed a cold look, and he snorted: "I'm afraid there are still people who can fight with your Majesty today.

He was not born. Those aristocratic families in Guandong are simply looking for death. How can His Majesty be so easy to deal with, and are here to threaten you as your emperor? These people really regard Your Majesty as the former Sui Yan Emperor. They simply don’t know whether to live or die."

"The price of food in Chang'an is soaring?" It is indeed what Wang Jia said. In the announcement room, Ben Wenwen and others gathered here, and a memorial was placed in front of Lu Zhaoci. It was exactly what the text was about.

"Your Majesty, with your Majesty's great victory over the Turks and the clear government, Chang'an has become the center of the Tang Dynasty. Guests from all over the world have served. Chang'an has become a gathering place for surrounding vassal states. The daily food consumption is also a huge amount, so this Chang'an food

Rising prices is also a normal thing. Although Chang'an is good, it is not easy to stay home. This has become a common saying.

The soaring food prices in Chang'an have also become an inevitable trend." This text said lightly: "As long as food can keep up with consumption, food prices will soon calm down, and your Majesty does not need to worry about this matter." Behind him, Changsun Wu

Ji and others also nodded repeatedly.

"Is this really the case?" Lu Zhaoci's eyes showed a hint of coldness, and Leng Huaheng asked. It seemed as if a cold wind was blowing through the hall, and everyone couldn't help but lower their heads even lower as they wanted to know what happened next.
