Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1872
When Li Shimin was reviewing the memorial in the imperial study, the palace servants came back from the Duke Qin's mansion.

When the palace man came back, his face was a bit ugly.

When I saw Li Shimin, I also felt a little hesitant to speak.

Seeing him like this, Li Shimin frowned slightly, and said, "Did something happen?"

The palace man hesitated again, Li Shimin was a little angry: "Say what you have."

At this time, the palace talent hastily told the matter.

"Your Majesty, this slave girl went to Duke Qin's mansion to announce his will, but... but Duke Qin said that he wants to be a rich man and want to be happy and happy, and he refuses to be the governor of Jingzhao Mansion."

After the palace man said this, his whole body was a little trembling and very scared.

Li Shimin was taken aback, what does Qin Tian mean by this, is he going to resist the edict?

Thinking of this, Li Shimin snorted immediately, and said: "This Qin Tian is so bold, he even dared to resist my will, you go to the Duke of Qin's mansion again, and ask Qin Tian to come into the palace, I would rather See how he rejects me."

In the entire Tang Dynasty, no one dared to reject him, Li Shimin. By doing this, Qin Tian simply did not give him the face of the emperor. So, how could he do it without teaching Qin Tian a lesson?

The palace servants looked bitter, Li Shimin couldn't afford to offend, and Qin Tian didn't want to offend either.

But in this situation, he has no choice but to leave the palace in a hurry.

After Qin Tian got the order, he didn't hesitate.

When he refused to accept the will, he thought of such a result, but he was not worried.

Just this matter, Li Shimin wouldn't do anything to him, would he?

After entering the palace, Qin Tian hurriedly saluted. His attitude was so good that he didn't mean to show Li Shimin any face.

This made Li Shimin, who wanted to get angry, not know how to get angry for a while.

Fists don't hit smiling faces.

Li Shimin cursed secretly, and then said: "I heard that you don't want to work in Jingzhao Mansion?"

Qin Tiandao: "Your Majesty, this Jingzhao Mansion is in charge of the capital, and I have the ability to do it well, but you also know that the rich and powerful in the capital are walking everywhere. If I offend that one, they will probably impeach me again." Well, if this is the case, if you dare to accept this, if you are idle at home, someone will impeach you, if you become Jingzhao Mansion, there will be more contacts with the dignitaries of Chang'an City."

There is no need for Qin Tian to say the following. As the Jingzhao Mansion, there must be many people who have offended him. If he, Qin Tian, ​​has offended someone, there will be as many memorials to impeach him as snowflakes?

Li Shimin originally wanted to teach Qin Tian a lesson, but after hearing Qin Tian's complaints, he couldn't say the lesson.

What Qin Tian said makes sense. It is not easy to be the governor of the Jingzhao Mansion, and Qin Tian's constitution, which is easy to be impeached, is naturally even more difficult to do.

It's just that no one else is willing to do it now, so if Qin Tian doesn't do it, who will he ask to do it?

After a while, Li Shimin said again: "Qin Aiqing, I understand your difficulties, but the Jingzhao Mansion is related to the safety of the capital, and I am really worried about handing it over to other people. I think it is appropriate for you to do it. , Of course, you have your worries, but as long as you are willing to do it, I will help you take care of what happens, so how about seeing who dares to impeach you?"

Li Shimin's words were like giving Qin Tian a life-saving talisman.

However, Qin Tian also knew that what the emperor said was like bullshit, if you let it go, let it go, if you take it seriously, you will lose.

Although Li Shimin was not as unruly as other emperors, sometimes his words were equivalent to farting.

Therefore, based on Li Shimin's words, Qin Tian didn't dare to believe them casually.

"My lord, I am also willing to do things for my Tang Dynasty, to be a stern and selfless governor, but the affairs of the capital are really complicated. Sometimes, just relying on the status of the governor of the humble minister, even the status of the Duke, can't calm some people. Human, so this job is not easy to do, this is definitely not something that the sage can let the minister do freely, so the minister... I am afraid I can't accept the order."

Hearing this, Li Shimin was faintly angry, but he is a wise king after all, even though Qin Tian was bargaining with him at this time, he still didn't explode, but his tone was a bit colder, and said: "Then what, you are willing to work in Jingzhao Mansion ?”

Qin Tian thought for a while, and said: "If the Holy Majesty doubts that I should serve in the Jingzhao Mansion, then the minister is determined to be a stern and selfless governor of the Jingzhao Mansion, and a stern and selfless person will inevitably offend many people, so I need the Holy Majesty's advice. The same thing that can make a minister stern and selfless."

For making this request, Qin Tian was naturally influenced by the fact that Bao Zheng in his time and space used three guillotines to handle cases in Kaifeng mansion. There are three guillotines, no matter if you are a relative of the emperor or an official in the court, as long as you break the law, you should beheaded. Head, the emperor and I can't stop it.

However, Qin Tian was embarrassed to ask for three guillotines directly. If he asked for it directly, wouldn't it mean that Qin Tian had planned it in advance?
So, he is going to go step by step.

After Li Shimin heard what he said, he hesitated for a moment, and what he gave Qin Tian was selfless, and what was hidden was to give Qin Tian some power, some power that could be cut first and played later.

This kind of power is usually not given by the emperor, but in this situation, if he doesn't give it, it will be difficult for Qin Tian to do things.

After hesitating for a while, Li Shimin still made a decision. He is the emperor of the Tang Dynasty. He wants the Jingzhao Mansion to be fair and honest. Let go of some power, so what?
"What Qin Aiqing said is somewhat reasonable. How about this, I will give you a Shangfang sword, which can let you cut first and then play, and also let you kill treacherous officials and corrupt officials, and can kill unruly people and bullies. What do you think?"

The sword of Shangfang is also something that many people are familiar with. Qin Tian often saw it in TV dramas in his previous life, and under normal circumstances, it was given to imperial envoys.

But he didn't expect that Li Shimin would give him such a sword here.

It stands to reason that such a royal sword has great power, seeing this sword is like seeing the emperor.

However, no matter how you look at it, Yujian kills people without the majesty and majesty of a guillotine.

Could it be that if a treacherous minister commits a crime, he wants to beheaded first and then played, so he has to kill with a sword?

That picture, no matter how you look at it, doesn't look very good.

Moreover, a sword does not have the prestige of a guillotine, so it cannot deter people.

After thinking for a while and holding back, Qin Tian said, "My lord, Shangfang's sword is not the sword of the minister. This thing should be the impartial and selfless sea-suppressing needle of the entire Jingzhao Mansion, so it's better to give it to the guillotine."

"Guillotine, what guillotine?" Li Shimin was a little confused.
