Six hundred and twelfth round showdown
"Mr. Ge, I'm afraid I have other things to do when I come here today." Lu Chengtai sat down, looked at Xu Jingzong and said quietly: "I don't understand why Mr. Ge did this? Can Mr. Ge please explain it clearly?" Lu Chengtai said.
He pointed at the Imperial Guard guard next to him and said. The implication was very clear.
"Di Huaiying has already closed the net in Chang'an. Wei Shi, a wealthy family in Guanzhong, was related to the Hongnong case. Wei Shouguang, on the orders of Wei Ting, poisoned Liu Hui, his son and Wu Neng to death." Xu Jingzong said lightly: "
After today, the two cases in Luoyang and Chang'an will be over, and I, the imperial envoy, will be able to retire with success and continue to return to Chang'an to be my bachelor of Xuande Palace."
"Oh, congratulations to Mr. Ge, congratulations to Mr. Ge. I didn't expect that such a big case in the country would be committed by Wei. I really didn't expect that Wei Tingshen was trusted by his father and the prince, and he was the prince's minister, but he never thought
It's a pity to think that he is such a person." Lu Chengtai's expression changed, and a look of surprise suddenly appeared on his face.
Seeing that he still did not admit that he was the mastermind of the Luoyang case, Xu Jingzong shook his head, sighed deeply, and said: "Your Highness must not have understood that Wei Ting is related to the Chang'an case and the Hongnong case, but
It has little to do with the Luoyang case, and he is not the person in charge of the Luoyang case."
"What does Mr. Ge mean?" Lu Chengtai's expression suddenly changed, and he looked at Xu Jingzong in surprise and said.
"Why does Your Highness pretend to be confused in front of others?" Xu Jingzong shook his head and said: "Don't Your Highness know who is behind Zheng Renji? Tell the truth to Your Highness, Zheng Renji said everything. Why don't Your Highness deny it?"
"Admit what? Mr. Xu doesn't think that Gu is related to this matter or that Gu is the person behind Zheng Renji?" Lu Chengtai stood up fiercely, looked at Xu Jingzong and snorted: "Master Xu, you have to know that Gu is the person behind Zheng Renji?"
You are the prince, but your words have offended the prince. Can you bear the charge? Humph, it’s really funny. Zheng Renji can judge Gu’s crime in just one sentence? Gu is a royal prince and the direct bloodline of the emperor. How can it be?
Anyone can slander. Mr. Ge, you believe a minister who has committed corruption charges, but you don’t want to believe King Gu. Mr. Ge has good intentions. Haha, I almost forgot. Mr. Ge can become Mr. Di Renjie.
Today, you have a relationship with His Highness the Crown Prince. You don’t want to throw dirty water on Gu Gu, just to please His Highness the Crown Prince. Humph, Xu Jingzong, let me tell you, it’s you who said it, Father.
Even the wise and powerful ones will not believe you."
"I don't know whether Your Majesty believes it or not, but I believe it." Xu Jingzong said lightly: "I forgot to tell Your Highness that Zheng Renji's daughter Zheng Liwan has been canonized as a talented person by His Majesty."
"Oh. Really? That's very good." Lu Chengtai had an unnatural look on his face, and there was a hint of uneasiness in his eyes. Everything in front of him was out of his control. This Xu Jingzong was the one who came.
Those who are not good and good will not come. Lu Chengtai was thinking about how to solve the problem in front of him.
"Your Highness, the position of the East Palace has been decided for a long time. Your Highness, the Crown Prince, has been benevolent and filial. He has supervised the country several times and managed the affairs of the country in an orderly manner. His Majesty is very fond of him. Although he is a prince, he has deep imperial aspirations. How can your Majesty accept such a prince?
Easily abolished?" Xu Jingzong shook his head and said: "If Your Majesty doesn't like the Crown Prince, how can you let Master Cen's daughter marry His Highness the Crown Prince? Haha, I have just been a noble scholar these years, far away from the center of the imperial court, but you can see
But he knows it better than His Highness. Your Majesty's thoughts about the Crown Prince are as far back as those of Prince Zhang Huai. You can see that by letting the current Crown Prince worship General Li Jing as his disciple. Your Majesty is cultivating His Royal Highness's cronies in the military.
, and it is especially true to be in charge of martial arts, and to be the deputy mountain commander. This is also a preparation for His Royal Highness to take charge of the army. Did Prince Zhanghuai at that time serve as the deputy mountain commander? It can be seen that His Majesty has already identified the candidate for the prince.
, Your Highness, why do you need to create extraneous problems?”….
"Mr. Ge, what does this mean?" Lu Chengtai said disdainfully: "The person who can ascend the throne must be the best son of the father. If the throne is simply passed down like this, how can the empire be guaranteed?
Nian Changsheng? Look at former Li, why did Li Yuan take notice of Li Shimin and others' fight for the throne, but did not stop it? Isn't it because he wanted to choose the best heir to the throne among his many sons? I
The same is true for the Tang Dynasty. It is not possible for ordinary people to inherit the country of the Tang Dynasty. There is definitely a struggle for the throne. This was the case for Prince Zhang Huai back then, and it is the same for Lu Chenglie today."
"So you created the Luoyang case?" Xu Jingzong said coldly: "His Royal Highness the King of Wei, you are a courtesy corporal in Chang'an City and have a better reputation than His Highness the King of Shu back then. But what I didn't expect is that in the
Your Highness, there is such a thought behind His Highness’s back. Your Highness, the Luoyang case involved hundreds of officials. How did these officials die? Your Highness, do you know that there are also wives and elders in the homes of these hundreds of officials?
The little one was wiped out by you in one fell swoop. Your Highness, haven't you ever thought about this? Your Highness, those who built the Luoyang Palace are all poor people. Your Highness, if you don't have a heart of kindness, how can you govern the world.
"
"The fight for the world has been like this since ancient times. Mr. Ge has experienced three dynasties, doesn't he know the secrets behind it?" Lu Chengtai said disdainfully: "Didn't my father do the same thing back then? Why do you care so much about fighting for the throne? Ge?
Old, how can you understand everything between princes if you are not from the royal family? Haha, you see, even if my father knew everything about Gu, he would only acquiesce. Otherwise, my eldest brother and second brother would have fought with Prince Zhang Huai.
When he was the crown prince, didn't his father know about it? No, he knew all this, but he didn't stop it, which shows the problem. Mr. Ge, my father supports the fight of us princes, because
Every emperor hopes to have a son who is the strongest, who can inherit his country, make him rich and prosperous, and bring all the nations to come to court. Mr. Ge, you don’t understand these."
"On the contrary. Your Highness, I know exactly what you are thinking." Xu Jingzong sneered: "Your Highness, do you know where your Majesty is at this time?".
"Where?" Lu Chengtai sneered.
"Just in Guanzhong." Xu Jingzong said lightly: "At this time, His Majesty has returned to Guanzhong. Hum, I'm afraid His Highness will never think that everything His Highness did was in His Majesty's eyes, but His Majesty used this
We have this opportunity to deal with two aristocratic families. At this time, Your Highness is getting involved in this matter. Your Highness, you are really too courageous."
"Father is in Guanzhong?" Lu Chengtai was stunned for a moment. He did not expect that Emperor Zhenguan was actually in Guanzhong, and he did not know that everything about him was actually planned by Emperor Zhenguan.
"Your Highness, it is impossible for you to become the prince. Because your relationship with the aristocratic family is too close. Your Majesty will not allow a person who is very close to the aristocratic family to become the prince. Because your majesty has been fighting against the aristocratic family all his life.
How can His Highness be allowed to interact with aristocratic families? Whether it is a Guanzhong aristocratic family or a Guandong aristocratic family, they are all targets that His Majesty wants to eradicate. Do you think His Majesty will allow you to be the crown prince? Just by virtue of your making such a fuss in Luoyang, several
Hundreds of officials died unexpectedly. If such a vicious person becomes the prince, it will be a great misfortune for our Tang Dynasty. If His Highness becomes the prince, all the officials of the Tang Dynasty will live in terror, and they will always worry about when His Highness will become the prince.
These people were poisoned to death. Your Highness is proficient in the art of heresy. These are not the tricks of the emperor. Look at His Highness the Crown Prince. He is upright and upright, and he does not fight with others. His Highness has his own sense of proportion. Do you have these, Your Highness?"...
"Master Xu, do you think these are useful?" Lu Chengtai sneered: "You tell my father this and let him deal with me. I don't believe it."
"You." Xu Jingzong's expression changed. This is what makes Xu Jingzong very depressed. If this matter only involves Zheng Renji, Xu Jingzong can handle it in his own way, adhering to the emperor's will and arresting the entire Guandong family.
After returning to the case, with this Dongfeng, the affairs of the Guandong family can be completely solved. With the addition of Di Renjie from Guanzhong, the most difficult family in the world can be easily solved. But things are different now. Among the Guandong families, Wei actually appears.
Wang Lu Chengtai, this was beyond his imagination, and it was not unimaginable. Although it made sense to say that the royal family was guilty of the same crime as the common people, but in fact, it was just talk. It made sense in theory, but in fact
, but it didn't work. The emperor's bloodline would kill at will. So Xu Jingzong came in person.
"Why, Mr. Ge, are you in trouble?" Lu Chengtai sneered: "I am the son of my father. How could my father kill his son? Xu Jingzong, you are wrong. You should not continue to investigate this case.
.In the final analysis, this world is still my Lu family’s world and my father’s world. The so-called king wants his ministers to die, and the ministers have to die. And those officials who died, if they didn’t have a little bit of greed, how could they be pocketed by the orphans?
.To put it more completely, these people all want to follow the dragon's merits and deserve to die."
If these people weren't greedy, how could they be taken advantage of by Lu Chengtai. Lu Chengtai was right about this, but Lu Chengtai killed these hundreds of officials in one go, which shows his ruthlessness.
place.
"Your Highness, you can take care of yourself." Xu Jingzong stood up, took a deep breath, and sneered: "In your Majesty's reign, perhaps Your Majesty will not do anything to His Majesty, because Your Highness is His Majesty's son, but the Crown Prince succeeds to the throne.
What happens in the future? Will the Crown Prince spare you, Your Highness? If I were to apologize to Your Majesty at this time, your Majesty might still consider the relationship between father and son and spare His Highness's life, so as to avoid having to settle accounts with His Majesty the Crown Prince later." Xu Jingzong never said anything again.
Without saying anything, he stood up and walked out without looking back. Lu Chengtai was left sitting there, his face pale and his eyes not even turning.
Just when Xu Jingzong entered Meiyuan, in the distant city of Chang'an, many ministers gathered in front of the East Palace Gate, urging the prince to come out. At this moment, the shouts of killing were loud on Guanlong Road, and this news had already spread throughout the whole country.
Chang'an City. Which of these Guanzhong aristocratic families does not have a great relationship with the bandits on the Guanlong Road? Even if they are not related, everything on the Guanlong Road at the moment has stopped all trade from Guanzhong Chang'an to the Western Regions. Which one is still killing people?
Dare to walk on that road. According to the report from the bold businessmen, rivers of blood flowed from the people killed by Di Renjie on the entire Guanlong Road. One tribe after another was wiped out. The tribes composed of those aliens only had a few small tribes.
The tribes or the tribes hiding far away from Guanlong Road were not massacred, and the rest of the tribes were all killed. This was great. All of a sudden, the foreigners killed and some businessmen of the Guanlong family were frightened.
I thought that this enemy was so courageous and his methods were so vicious. Even though he was a scholar, I didn't expect that this guy could kill people without hesitation.
"The prince is missing, let's go to the city gate to see if the devil Di Renjie is qualified to hold the Cold Light Sword." Someone in the crowd shouted loudly.
"Yes, yes, since His Majesty the Crown Prince doesn't care about us, why don't we go see Di Renjie ourselves. The Cold Light Sword is the emperor's sword, not a killing sword. Di Renjie used the Cold Light Sword given by His Majesty to be so bloody and brutal. If at this time,
If he is allowed to return to Chang'an, the city of Chang'an will surely be a river of blood. By then, there will be no place for us to gain a foothold." From time to time, roars could be heard from the crowd, and these people were frightened by Di Renjie's death...
.
As a large group of people left the East Palace and headed towards Chunming Gate, Di Renjie would return from the Western Regions today and entered through Chunming Gate. These people obviously wanted to show Di Renjie a good look at the city gate.
"Your Highness, do you think these people are too nervous?" In the East Palace Mansion, Cen Wenwen and others were gathered together, including Changsun Wuji and others. Changsun Wuji looked at Lu Chenglie with a smile and said.
Cen Wenwen glanced at Changsun Wuji, with a smile on his face. He didn't say anything, and there was no need to say anything. On the surface, Changsun Wuji was talking about these people, but in fact, he was talking about Di Renjie, the person Di Renjie killed.
There were so many that they killed even Cen Wenwen was surprised. Although he vaguely knew something, he was still stunned by everything in front of him. How many foreigners were there on the Guanlong Road, at least hundreds of thousands.
Now that they have been swept away by Di Renjie, there is no telling how many are left. The entire foreign race on the Guanlong Road suffered a big loss this time.
"Humph, I really don't know where this Di Renjie's courage comes from. This is a bit too murderous. It's true that the Cold Light Sword has some privileges, but it can't kill like this," Wei Zheng said dissatisfied.
"Haha, if these people hadn't committed murder and looting, Di Renjie wouldn't have raised the Cold Light Sword." Chen Guangrui said with a smile, "Although the number of people killed was a bit more. Haha."
"Humph, I see that this Di Renjie is a premeditated murderer." Changsun Wuji sneered: "Are these foreigners all deserving of death? I have heard that Di Renjie kills people regardless of whether they are women, young, old or weak. These foreigners
Children with high stirrups will be killed. The accompanying army also has no military discipline, and bullying of women occurs from time to time. This Di Renjie is also a scholar after all, how come he can be so cruel when killing people."
"Your Highness, I also think that this Di Renjie is too cruel to kill people and is not in the interests of the Tang Dynasty." Wang Gui glanced at Changsun Wuji and said: "Even if these foreigners have some faults, you cannot treat them like this. I want your Majesty to conquer them.
The Turks of the steppe defeated them. In order to divide the Turks, they moved these aliens to various parts of Guanlong in order to use time to wear down the will of these people and allow them to completely integrate into our Chinese nation. How many people are there now?
In the year, Di Renjie ignored the court's decision and massacred these people. Once word of this spreads to the grasslands, I am afraid that the Turks will cause trouble again. At that time, a large army will be dispatched to pacify these guys. This Di Renjie,
He is a troublemaker. Your Highness, the old minister thinks that this kind of person should not stay in the capital. Di Renjie is still young, so I am not weak and let him go down below to train for a few years before he is transferred back to assist His Highness the Crown Prince. By then, I think he will be mature.
It has been strengthened a lot, enough to take on heavy responsibilities. What do you think, His Highness? I want him to mobilize more than 10,000 troops to sweep across the entire Guanlong Road. Where did these soldiers and horses come from? They were the troops used by His Majesty to protect Guanzhong, and they were transferred away by him at this time.
.What if there is another rebellion in Guanzhong? This Di Renjie has not considered things thoroughly." Wang Gui said quietly. Although these were all for Di Renjie's consideration, everyone could hear them clearly.
, this is denying everything Di Renjie said, and by transferring Di Renjie out of the capital, I am afraid that Di Renjie’s punishment will be deepened soon. Wang Gui is just slowly dealing with Di Renjie. His methods are even more sinister.
"Elder Ge, where did the soldiers and horses in Di Renjie's hands come from?" Lu Chenglie suddenly said softly. The Elder Ge he mentioned, in the entire East Palace, there is only one person who is so special, and that is Cen Wenwen.
"His Royal Highness the King of Liang returned from the south half a month ago, and a hundred thousand troops also entered the Lantian camp. The soldiers and horses in Di Renjie's hands were sent by the King of Liang." Cen Wenwen said calmly.
"What? Prince Liang?" The expressions of everyone in the hall suddenly changed. Changsun Wuji and Wang Gui turned even pale, and their lips trembled. These two people did not expect that Prince Lu Zhaoying of Liang would actually appear in Lantian, and even more so.
What they didn't expect was that it had been half a month since King Liang entered Guanzhong, and it was only now that he came out of Cen Wenwen's mouth. The news was so late that they were surprised.
"Oh, it turns out that Uncle Liang is back." Lu Chenglie nodded and said, "In that case, Di Huaiying didn't do anything wrong."
