Daming Super Dimension Company, President Zhu Yuanzhang!

Chapter 129 Li Shimin: What’s wrong?
Li Shimin glanced at Li Xuan and said, "Do you know you were wrong?"

Li Xuan was stunned. Although he didn't know what was going on, he still knelt down and said, "I know I was wrong."

Xiao Ran suddenly became embarrassed and said, "What's wrong?"

Li Xuan was completely confused. What was wrong? How does he know where he went wrong?

Li Shimin, who originally saw Li Xuan's good attitude and wanted him to get up, also asked: "Yes, tell me, what do you think you did wrong?"

Li Zhen thought to himself for a long time and said hesitantly: "I don't care about political affairs, just eat, drink and have fun every day?"

Li Shimin said: "Suanyou still has some ideas in mind, but what else?"

Li Xuan was confused, "What else? This."

Xiao Ran kindly reminded from the side: "What is your relationship with Tian Lingzi?"

Li Zhan was stunned, what kind of relationship could this have? He is the emperor and Tian Lingzi is the eunuch?

Oh, no, apart from this, he still calls Tian Lingzi "father".

Although this title was only because Tian Lingzi was the only one around him since he was a child. Tian Lingzi was equivalent to his adoptive father, so he respectfully called Tian Lingzi "father". No one dared to say this before.

After all, you choose what you want to call, and Tian Lingzi is unmatched even if he can control the sky with one hand. Who dares to object to this?

But it's different now. The person sitting on it is Li Shimin.

Li Xuan obviously thought of this, so he quickly explained: "Tian Lingzi has been with me for many years, and I have been taken care of by him since I was a child, so..."

Tian Lingzi also wiped his tears behind him and said: "Your Majesty is kind, but this is all the responsibility of the old slave. He still remembers it so clearly. This is what a slave should do!"

Li Xuan was moved to tears after hearing this, but before he could say anything, Li Shimin said, "Really? Then why don't you respect Li Xuan so much, how dare you recognize this title?"

Just as Tian Lingzi was about to defend himself, Li Shimin said: "Don't say that Li Xuan had to do this. If you insisted, Li Xuan wouldn't do it. What's more, you are relying on Li Xuan's feelings for you to dominate and dominate. The imperial court has become your one-stop shop!"

As he said this, Li Shimin banged the table and said 'bang'! A sound.

This time, Tian Lingzi didn't seem to be doing anything good, and Lu Xie shivered again in fright.

Xiao Ran looked at Lu Xie and said, "You are so brave and you still need to practice it."

Lu Xie tugged at the corner of his mouth as if he was about to cry, raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead, and said, "Hey, yes, yes, I still have to practice, I still have to practice."

Li Shimin returned his attention to Li Xuan and Tian Lingzi, and said, "Tian Lingzi, do you need me to ask someone to tell you what good things you have done?!"

Tian Lingzi felt guilty. He knew best what he had done.

However, he could not tolerate his refusal, so he only heard Li Shimin say: "Xiao Ran, come and tell Li Zhan what his good 'father' has done."

Xiao Ran smiled and said: "Then we really need to talk about it carefully. I won't talk about what happened yet. Let's talk about what's going on now."

Under Li Xuan's puzzled eyes, Xiao Ran said: "Tian Lingzi, during the Xiantong period, he followed his adoptive father to serve as an eunuch in the Ministry of Internal Affairs. At first he was just a very humble eunuch, and later he served as the envoy of Xiaomafang, responsible for managing the contributions of state and county officials. A good horse for the emperor."

"When Li Xuan was still King Pu, he was very close to Li Xuan. The two often played together, and Tian Lingzi even slept with Li Xuan. Am I right?"

Li Zhen blushed a little, not because of anything else, but because Xiao Ran said that he needed someone else to accompany him to sleep, and felt a little embarrassed.

Tian Lingzi raised his eyes slightly and glanced at Xiao Ran, but said nothing.

Xiao Ran said: "Tian Lingzi is actually not willing to just be a little eunuch. After all, you have read a lot of books since you were a child, and you are quite resourceful. You must be unhappy if you are asked to be a lowly eunuch, right?"

Tian Lingzi didn't say anything, and Xiao Ran continued: "Furthermore, it was you who made great efforts for Li Xuan to succeed to the throne. So, is it because you are close to Li Xuan because you really sympathize with Li Xuan? Or is it because of something else?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at Tian Lingzi instantly. Tian Lingzi was shocked and cried quickly and said to Li Zhang: "Your Majesty! I am loyal to you!"

As he said this, Tian Lingzi was about to burst into tears, but was interrupted by Xiao Ran: "No one says whether you are loyal or not, just listen to me and continue."

Tian Lingzi could only swallow what he wanted to say.

Li Shimin looked at Xiao Ran and said, "Speak quickly."

Xiao Ran nodded and said: "Because of the friendship between Tian Lingzi and Li Xuan, Tian Lingzi naturally rose to prominence after Li Xuan ascended the throne. This is actually nothing. After all, after so many years of relationship, it was still with Li Xuan that he was the best When you need help.”

Thinking of the days before he ascended the throne, Li Xuan looked at Tian Lingzi with a hint of admiration in his eyes.

As a result, before he could admire him for a while, he heard Xiao Ran say: "But things will be different after reaching the top of the world. Some people will be more grateful even if they have reached the top, but some people will start to make mistakes. It’s a blessing to be powerful.”

Xiao Ran looked at Tian Lingzi with a smile on his lips, "I'm talking about you, Tian Lingzi."

Tian Lingzi was startled and looked towards Xiao Ran.

Xiao Ran opened his lips slightly, and his words hit Tian Lingzi's heart like a chisel.

"As soon as Li Zhang came to the throne, he promoted Tian Lingzi to the rank of privy envoy. Tian Lingzi rose from a young eunuch to one of the Four Nobles. Li Xuan, who was only twelve years old at the time, naturally didn't understand political affairs. I'm afraid Li Xuan doesn't understand it now. Don’t quite understand?”

Li Zhen touched the back of his head with some embarrassment. He was indeed still young, and he did not really understand the major events in the court. Originally, there were assistant ministers in the court, but Naihe died early, and only Tian was left. Lingzi is alone.

Xiao Ran said: "It's okay to say that Tian Lingzi assists the government, but what he does is not to assist the government, but to make his own decisions!"

Li Xuan was young at that time, so he entrusted Tian Lingzi with political affairs.

This was exactly what Tian Lingzi wanted. Relying on his relationship with Li Xuan and possessing military power, Tian Lingzi became the central figure in the ruling group at that time.

Tian Lingzi held great power. If anyone wanted to be an official, he had to go through his back door and send him gifts or bribes. Even when Tian Lingzi appointed officials or bestowed titles, he did not need to report to Li Zhang and could make the decision himself.

Xiao Ran looked at Li Xuan and said, "Do you think that you don't know who should be promoted to a high official or how to reward and punish him, so you gave them all to Tian Lingzi?"

Li Xuan nodded and said, "That's true. I don't know what to do, and Atian Lingzi is much smarter than me, so..."

Xiao Ran smiled and said, "So you didn't expect that he would harbor evil intentions." At this time, Li Xuan also heard that something was wrong and did not dare to reply.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Xiao Ran continued: "Besides, Li Zhan, your extravagance and playfulness are really unsatisfactory! You even used the gold coins and rewards from Chang'an Zuozang and Qitian's treasury for this purpose. Tens of thousands of dollars were spent on work and craftsmanship, resulting in the depletion of national funds."

Li Zhen lowered his head and said nothing.

Li Shimin looked at Li Xuan and scolded: "Lift your head!"

Li Xuan quickly raised his head and said, "Your Majesty Emperor Taizong, I know I was wrong! I really know I was wrong!"

Li Shimin looked at Li Xuan and said, "Even if you are young, you shouldn't act like this! You don't understand government affairs, so you entrust it to Tian Lingzi. I can say that you trusted the wrong person, but look at it, the people in the world are not even eating." I can’t afford it! What are you doing?”

Li Xuan couldn't hold it back and burst into tears, "UuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuYour Majesty Emperor Taizong, I really don’t know."

Seeing Li Xuan crying and crying, Xiao Ran sighed.

In fact, it is understandable to say that Li Zhen didn't know. After all, he was young and had little experience, and the people around him would not tell him what the current world situation was like. This is the same as Sima Zhong's idea of ​​why not eat minced meat. Same.

Huang Chao also suddenly said: "Hey, it seems he is still a child."

Xiao Ran, who had long forgotten about Huang Chao, was startled by his sudden voice.

"Hey! You scared me." Xiao Ran patted his chest.

Huang Chao looked at Xiao Ran with squinting eyes, "Why, have you forgotten me? Mr. Xiao?"

As he said that, he looked at Li Shimin again, "Oh, and Mr. Li."

Li Shimin also coughed slightly in embarrassment. After all, they were the ones who deceived Huang Chao first, and they were the ones who were in the wrong.

Huang Chao snorted and turned his gaze to Li Xuan below, feeling a little surprised.

Is this the emperor who will be driven out of Chang'an in the future?
No wonder he was able to win so easily in the beginning. The local officials did not report it to the police for one reason, and Li Xuan was young for another reason.

After all, what can you expect from a child like that? The government affairs at that time were all in Tian Lingzi's hands, and Tian Lingzi could only be blamed.

At the same time, Huang Chao was also thinking that according to the current situation of Li Shimin and Xiao Ran, Tian Lingzi would definitely not survive, and Li Zhan would not grow up suddenly overnight, so Huang Chao would be the one to take the position of assistant minister. Woolen cloth?

Huang Chao knew that he would not blind Li Xuan like Tian Lingzi. Everything was decided by himself. Don't say that he was not such a person. Even if he was, now that Li Shimin was here, even if he wanted to, he would have to Weigh and weigh how much your bones weigh.

Thinking of this, Huang Chao's eyes instantly became kind when he looked at Li Xuan. This was the ladder to his success.

Li Zhan shivered and felt a little fuzzy in his heart.

Huang Chao looked at Li Xuan, who was still kneeling and crying, and said to Li Shimin, "How about we let him get up first?"

Li Shimin looked at Li Xuan and saw Li Xuan looking at him pitifully. He could only sigh and said, "Okay, you get up first."

Li Zhen quickly got up and wiped his tears.

Xiao Ran looked at Li Xuan and deliberately teased: "Are you done crying?"

Li Zhen later realized that he felt a little embarrassed. In the hall, in front of so many people, he actually cried like this.

Xiao Ran smiled and said, "Now that you've finished crying, I'll continue talking."

"Li Xuan squandered the treasury, and in order to allow Li Xuan to continue squandering, Tian Lingzi registered the treasures of Chinese and foreign merchants in Chang'an and two cities and sent them all to the inner treasury for Li Xuan to squander. If any merchants were dissatisfied, they reported to the government. , he was sent to Jing Zhaoyin and beaten to death with a stick."

Li Shimin looked at Li Xuan and asked, "Do you know about this matter?"

Li Xuan, who had just stood up, knelt down again.

"I, I, I know." Li Xuan wanted to deny it, but looking at Li Shimin's sharp eyes, he finally lowered his head and admitted it.

Xiao Ran looked at Li Xuan and asked, "Is this Tian Lingzi's idea for you?"

Li Xuan nodded.

Xiao Ran asked again: "Then he didn't say what he would do if someone was dissatisfied, right? You didn't think of this?"

Li Zhang opened his mouth and said nonchalantly: "I am the emperor, and the world belongs to me. If anyone is dissatisfied, Tian Lingzi will help me."

Xiao Ran slapped his head, okay, this is totally being taught bad things!
Li Shimin looked at Tian Lingzi and sneered, "As a eunuch, you can deceive Li Xuan's trust, and even use Li Xuan's feelings for you to fulfill yourself. It seems that Xiao Ran said you are quite resourceful before, but you really have no idea. Wrong!"

Tian Lingzi lowered his head and did not dare to reply.

Xiao Ran asked aloud: "Actually, I don't understand something, Tian Lingzi, since the treasury has been squandered by Li Zhen, why do you take the initiative to collect money and let Li Zhen squander it? If you use this matter to squander those I can understand that you gave everything to yourself, but you gave it to Li Zhan, why? "

Tian Lingzi said: "My slave, I just want to share your Majesty's worries."

Xiao Ran said: "Whether it is to share Li Xuan's worries or to make Li Xuan value you more, you know it yourself."

Huang Chao suddenly said: "Want to hear my thoughts?"

Xiao Ran and Li Shimin looked at Huang Chao and heard Huang Chao say: "Actually, it is also because of plundering merchants in this way and then giving things to Li Xuan. If the merchants are dissatisfied, they will only face Li Xuan, not Tian Lingzi."

"On the contrary, he helped Li Xuan solve the problem and gained Li Xuan's respect. As for why he didn't accept it himself, he was still a eunuch after all. If he accepted it, he would have no place to hide, and if he let others You know, he is not doing anything to help Li Zhan, but to satisfy his own selfish desires."

Li Shimin thought for a while and nodded, "What you said makes sense."

After speaking, he looked at Tian Lingzi and said, "How is it? Is this what you think?"

Tian Lingzi shook his head repeatedly. He bit him to death just for Li Zhan. He had no selfish motives of his own and he was not a fool. If he admitted it, he would definitely not survive.

Although what he did now is unforgivable, as long as Li Zhen is here and Li Zhen still has feelings for him, he will not die.
