I, the military god of the Tang Dynasty, have risen since I destroyed the Turks

Chapter 236 Li Shimin pleads for mercy

"What King Lujiang said is very interesting."

"Didn't you admit it so generously when we were in your house just now?"

"He also said that it would be fine if the emperor knew about it. You are the emperor's younger brother and a relative of the emperor, and you still support me with merit."

"The laws of the Tang Dynasty can't do anything to you."

Wang Hao sneered and mocked.

Li Yuan's face turned pale and he immediately cursed at Wang Hao: "Shut up, you mad dog."

"Old Eleven, I have tolerated you again and again, and forgive you again and again."

"But what about you?"

"How dare you do this."

"When he was in a fiefdom, he killed innocent people indiscriminately, and he killed his servants if he was a little angry."

"Your behavior is truly a heinous person."

"I can't bear with you any longer."

Li Shimin said indifferently, with strong disappointment in his tone.

"Brother Royal."

"Brother I know I was wrong."

"Brother Chen really knows that he was wrong."

"This matter is my own decision. It has nothing to do with the princess. If the emperor wants to punish me, I will punish me alone."

"Brother, please forgive me."

Li Yuan knelt on the ground and begged for mercy in fear.

The domineering and arrogance just now disappeared.

When Li Zheng on the side saw Li Zheng like this, his eyes were full of indifference.

"Li Zheng."

"What do you think we should do with him?"

Li Shimin looked directly at Li Zheng.

All the civil and military officials in the court looked at him.

"Bastard thing."

"I don't believe you dare to do anything to me."

Lujiang King Li Yuan also raised his head and looked at Li Zheng, his eyes full of threats.

"If the emperor wants to hand this person over to me, I will kill him directly."

Li Zheng raised his head and said very calmly.

Hear this.

All the civil and military officials in the court also changed their expressions.

If it were them.

Due to Li Yuan's status as a royal family and his special relationship with the emperor, he would inevitably be given a lighter sentence. After all, he was the younger brother of the current emperor and a prince, so he could not go too far, but Li Zheng did not act according to common sense.

"Bastard thing."

"You actually want to kill me?"

"Who do you think you are? Do you deserve it?"

Li Yuan stood up suddenly and rushed towards Li Zheng very violently.

But Li Zheng would not spoil him.

The moment he rushed over.

Just raise your hand and slap him.

There was a snap.

Li Yuan was whipped away directly.

Bah!

Li Yuan was thrown to the ground hard, and his face instantly swelled after being slapped by Li Zheng.

"You...you dare to hit me?"

Li Yuan covered his painful cheek and looked at Li Zheng with bursting anger.

"If it weren't for the emperor and the laws of the Tang Dynasty, I would even kill you."

Li Zheng said coldly.

Li Yuan is indeed violent.

But there was a terrifying murderous aura about Li Zheng, and there seemed to be an oppressive sense of murderous aura in the entire hall.

See this scene.

All the ministers in the court could not help but frown when they looked at Li Zheng. They did not expect that Li Zheng would be so bold and dare to hit Li Yuan in front of the emperor.

And he also made it clear that he wanted to kill him.

From the corner of their eyes, they looked at Li Shimin who was sitting on the dragon throne. Although his face was livid, he did not show any anger towards Li Zheng.

"I go into battle to kill the enemy for the country."

"To kill the rival of the Tang Dynasty, Yugu Changdu, the Turkic Khan, you, a vassal king of the Tang Dynasty, actually sent people to assassinate you for an enemy." "It's ridiculous, it's really ridiculous."

"If this matter spreads to the world, then the Tang Dynasty will really laugh at it."

Li Zheng stared at Li Yuan and mocked coldly.

"you you…"

Li Yuan pointed at Li Zheng and felt Li Zheng's undisguised murderous intent.

For the first time in my life.

Apart from facing the imperial brother, he felt scared for the first time.

In the past, he had the status of a royal family and the power of a vassal king. No matter who he was, he would stay away and not dare to offend. However, the Li Zheng in front of him was not afraid at all and could not be treated with common sense.

Just as Li Shimin said that day.

Li Zheng had something to rely on, and he didn't have that high awe of the imperial power.

It's like being in the palace now, but if he wants, he can use his strength to get out of the palace.

And he can drag the entire court to his death.

This is the strength of his master.

"Ugh!"

Li Shimin sighed, with a look of helplessness on his old face.

Then, Li Shimin looked at Li Zheng with a helpless expression: "For my sake, can you spare his life?"

Hear this.

All the civil and military officials in the court widened their eyes and looked at Li Shimin in disbelief.

"This, is this a joke?"

"The emperor is actually discussing with Li Zheng and begging Li Zheng to spare King Lujiang's life?"

"When did such a domineering emperor even want to discuss it?"

"Did I hear wrongly?"

All the ministers looked on in shock, shaking in their hearts.

Li Zheng, with an indifferent expression, replied calmly: "This world belongs to the emperor. How the emperor wants to deal with it will naturally be watched by the emperor. The words of a foreign minister are not counted."

Listen to this tone.

Anyone could hear the coldness and the estrangement towards Li Shimin.

This made all the officials in the court feel numb.

"Li Zheng."

"He really dares."

"How dare you speak to the emperor like this."

"This has to be said to be extremely audacious!"

The ministers thought to themselves and were all shocked.

Listening to Li Zheng’s words,

There was also a sadness on Li Shimin's face: "After all, he is my younger brother, and he supported me with merit before. If you really ask me to kill him, I really can't do it."

Listen to this.

Li Zheng was not surprised.

Li Shimin had experienced the Xuanwu Sect Incident before, and he had killed his brother to get the throne, which made him feel guilty in his heart. After that, in order to whitewash the world, he always treated the royal family well. On the one hand, he saved his reputation, and on the other hand, he also treated Li Shimin. own salvation.

So if Li Yuan was killed just because of this incident, he would have to bear the infamy again.

Li Shimin couldn't do this.

But Li Zheng couldn't accept it.

Because this Li Yuan really wanted his life.

If he hadn't had martial arts strength, if he hadn't been escorted by personal guards, if he hadn't really died.

What should I do with my own family?

What should I do with my wife? What should I do with my own son?

Li Shimin can protect his reputation and whitewash peace, but Li Zheng cannot easily erase the blood debt that happened to him. That's the kind of person he is.

Can't change.

Seeing Li Shimin looking like he wanted to take it easy, Li Zheng couldn't help it anymore.

"Your Majesty's holy judgment is enough."

"Everything is left to His Majesty's disposal."

"I have resigned."

Li Zheng bowed to Li Shimin.

Then he turned around and left the hall.

Seeing this, Zhao Ming and Wu Yuanlong beside them also bowed to Li Shimin, then turned and left.

Their real allegiance is to Li Zheng.

By the way.

Li Zheng took off his official third-grade robe again and folded it at the entrance of the hall.
