The Happy Prince of Tang Dynasty

Li Jiancheng's face suddenly turned serious, and he said loudly: "Xie Hui, Xie Yuanhuan, and Xie Lan stepped forward to obey orders."

"The guilty minister takes orders!"

Xie Hui, Xie Yuanhuan, and Xie Lan responded in unison, and then knelt side by side on the ground.They knew that this was Li Jiancheng's final arrangement for them, and the time had come that related to their fate, and the three of them were lying when they said they were not nervous.No, the faint sweat on his forehead said it all.

However, after all, he came from a big family like the Xie family, so he was quite calm.

"Xie Hui abused his power to obtain a military position for Xie Luoke, a son of the Xie family. According to his crimes, he should have been imprisoned in the prison and sent to the frontier. However, the prince thought that he had a good attitude of admitting his mistakes and reported the criminals in time. Therefore, the prince Today, he will be cut off from his position as the commander of the Ministry of War, and temporarily serve as a miscellaneous service in the Ministry of War. Xie Hui, do you have any objections?" [

"Uh…"

Xie Hui's eyes widened, as if he couldn't believe it.

Don't talk about Xie Hui, even the officials above the main hall showed a look of surprise.Li Jiancheng, who was still in a hurry before, why is he withered now?

This made them puzzled. Some sensitive ministers felt that the strange cloud was getting thicker and thicker.

"Xie Hui, are you dissatisfied with the handling of this crown prince?"

When Xie Hui was still in astonishment, Li Jiancheng's light but clear voice reached Xie Hui's ears, and Xie Hui, who was still in the fog, immediately reacted.

"The guilty minister dare not, the guilty minister has thanked His Highness the Crown Prince for his kindness!"

After reacting, Xie Hui would not hesitate, and immediately kowtowed, expressing great gratitude to Li Jiancheng for his tolerance.

Although he was cut off from the post of Ling Shi of the Ministry of War, he became a handyman.However, compared to his previous fate of being sent to jail, this is already an extremely merciful and lenient punishment.As long as he is honest and works hard, it is only a matter of time before he is restored to the post of Ling Shi of the Ministry of War.

This is what Li Jiancheng conveyed, and the prince will deal with it lightly.Presumably, others would not make things difficult for Xie Hui because he was a handyman.

At this moment, Xie Hui realized that this was the surprise that Li Jiancheng was talking about.

"Xie Yuanhuan. As the Imperial Academy, you do such a thing. Doesn't this behavior mean that you are bringing down the students and the talents of the Great Tang Empire?"

Li Jiancheng said every word, but the content of his words.But it made Xie Yuanhuan feel as if he was being crushed by a mountain.

Corrupting the students and the talents of the Great Tang Empire would not damage the foundation of the Great Tang Empire.Such behavior is equivalent to treason, or even worse.Lighten up.Just kill him as the leader; if it is taken seriously, the entire Xie family will be razed to the ground.

"The guilty minister is guilty. The guilty minister has lost his virtue. He is ashamed of his high expectations for His Majesty. He has failed His Highness the Crown Prince's expectations. He has dishonored the reputation of his ancestors. Please His Royal Highness punish the minister for his felony."

Xie Yuanhuan buried his head even lower, as if he had been awakened by Li Jiancheng's words.Speaking sincerely.

"However. This prince thinks that you are the first offender, and you pleaded guilty actively, so you can testify against the behind-the-scenes instigation. Therefore, this prince makes you a servant of the Imperial College, responsible for the daily life of the students. Feel their hardships, and don't exercise your privileges because of you. And Let the talents of these countries be disappointed and lost. This is how to deal with it. Are you satisfied with Xie Yuanhuan?"

"The guilty minister thanked the prince for his kindness. There is His Royal Highness in the Tang Dynasty. It is really God's favor." Xie Yuanhuan knelt on the ground, and couldn't help but flattered him.

Li Jiancheng smiled faintly, and ignored him, but turned to look at Xie Lan, who was about fifty years old. [

"Thank you, sir, are you guilty?"

Li Jiancheng did not tell the result of Xie Lan's trial, but looked at him lightly, and said something casually.Looking at Li Jiancheng's kind face, it's hard to think that it was him who killed a court general just now.Moreover, he was strangled to death.

"Wei Chen is guilty."

"So, Mr. Xie, do you know where your crime is?" Li Jiancheng continued to look at the other party and asked.

Xie Lan knelt down on the ground, as if thinking.However, Xie Lan also knew that he didn't have much time to think, but he gave the answer after a while.

"The crime of a humble official is that he should not rely on his own power to obtain positions for his nephews. Disregarding the laws of the country makes the selection of talents a trifling matter."

Li Jiancheng nodded in satisfaction, and then continued to ask: "Then, Mr. Xie, how do you think you should be punished?"

When Li Jiancheng said this, not only Xie Lan was taken aback.The officials above the main hall were a little stunned. Could it be that they can choose what crime they are convicted of these years?

In their hearts, the officials subconsciously believed that Xie Lan would choose the lightest sentence for him.

"I would like to resign from the position of Minister of Dali Temple and reflect at home." However, to the surprise of the ministers, Xie Lan chose an obviously serious sentence.

You know, even Xie Lan used his power to arrange positions for his nephews.The crime would not be so great that he would resign from Dali Temple. After all, he was a third-rank official, and he was already considered an important minister of the country.After all, how many officials in the entire Tang Dynasty are higher than Cong Sanpin?

If a high-ranking official from the third rank was dismissed because of such a trivial matter, it would indeed be a bit serious.

"My lords, do you feel that Mr. Xie's punishment is a bit serious?" Li Jiancheng narrowed his eyes slightly, and his eyes swept over the ministers.However, because Li Jiancheng's eyes showed only a small slit, the ministers did not know what Li Jiancheng was really thinking.

However, they were still shocked. They didn't expect Li Jiancheng to be able to guess what they were thinking.However, they naturally won't show it like a fool.

Although no one answered, the reaction of everyone showed their true thoughts.

Suddenly, Li Jiancheng's face became serious: "The prince is here to tell you, don't take this matter so simply. It is because some ministers abused their power to obtain positions for their own children. Then, the consequences Do you think it is a small matter to let some talents who are originally qualified for such positions be lost?"

Looking at Li Jiancheng's appearance, he was obviously in a state of rage, and no one knew whether he would explode in the next moment.

Because, two blood lessons told them that keeping quiet is the best way.So, no one talks.However, thinking about it in their hearts, this is indeed a trivial matter, and Li Jiancheng's actions are obviously a bit of a trivial matter.

"The prince knows. You think so in your heart, so let the prince give you an example."

"At the end of the Qin Dynasty, Liu Bang and Xiang Yu fought for hegemony in the world. Presumably all the adults know about it?" Li Jiancheng looked at a group of ministers and asked indifferently.

Seeing that Li Jiancheng's face showed no signs of getting angry, the ministers nodded.

"Han Xin is a man. I think everyone knows the same." Li Jiancheng continued to ask, and then without waiting for the ministers to answer, he continued: "Everyone knows the outcome of the conflict between Chu and Han. Han Xin also played a role in this war. This is an important role, if there is no Han Xin, the probability of Liu Bang winning the world is basically zero. But don’t you think that Han Xin served under Liu Bang before? No, Han Xin served under Xiang Yu before, as a halberd Langzhong, but finally ran to Liu Bang's camp, why all this?"[

Some ministers' eyes flashed, as if they had some insight; while some ministers frowned, thinking why Han Xin ran to Liu Bang's camp.

want to come.Such people do not understand what Li Jiancheng means.

then.Li Jiancheng continued to explain.

"The reason is that Xiang Yu is basically surrounded by his subordinates from Chu. For example, Zhong Limei, Ying Bu, Ji Bu, Peng Yue, etc. Few newcomers can join their camp."

"However, Liu Bang is different. Although when he came out of Pei County, he brought people like Cao Shen and Fan Kui with him. However, Zhang Liang, Chen Ping, and even crazy scholars like Li Shiqi who joined later could make good use of them. .In the end, he won the world and achieved the 400-year history of the Han Dynasty. You said, if Liu Bang hired all his friends who came from Pei County with him, but he had to reuse the new talents, then dare I ask, the result will be how?"

After Li Jiancheng finished his speech, the officials realized the importance of brain drain, and cold sweat dripped from their foreheads.

If Li Jiancheng tells the story of a scientific madman with an IQ over [-] in a certain era in the future, maybe these people will repent aloud!

That madman is none other than the inventor and main participant of the atom: Albert Einstein.

You know, Albert Einstein belonged to the most wealth-creating race in the world: the Jewish race.However, it was also this race that suffered inhuman treatment during World War II.The encounter with the Huaxia nation is a difficult brother.

And Albert Einstein was also a Jewish living in Germany, so he was persecuted by the German Nazi Party.

Thus, the Albert Einstein family came to the United States of America.

Then, he proposed the principle of the atom, and proposed to the American government to develop the atom, all for the purpose of ending the war.The facts are not bad, one atom accelerated the entire process of World War II by nearly a decade.

And the power of atoms shocked the whole world.

However, let's look back, if the German Nazis did not persecute the Jews.Under the proposal of Albert Einstein, the German Nazis created powerful atoms, and the consequences were unimaginable.

"Listen to the prince's words, let the minister wait for Mao Sai to understand!"

Understanding what Li Jiancheng said, a group of ministers knelt down habitually, and the shouts like waves suddenly rang out again.

Li Jiancheng ignored this flattering behavior and turned to look at Xie Lan.

"Master Xie is able to think about his own faults and has the courage to bear mistakes. The prince is very pleased. Since you are a first-time offender and have a good attitude of admitting mistakes, I will temporarily cut off your position as the Minister of Dali Temple and temporarily assume the position of Young Minister of Dali Temple. And Dali Temple Minister will be temporarily replaced by Dali Temple Shaoqing, and everything will be handled by the Ministry of Officials, and the Crown Prince will not care about such trivial matters."

Li Jiancheng is right, this is indeed a trivial matter.

However, Xie Lan was relegated from the position of Minister of Dali Temple to Shaoqing of Dali Temple. Compared with Xie Yuanhuan and Xie Hui, two children of the Xie family who went to work as handymen, he was already very lucky.Moreover, Li Jiancheng clearly pointed out that this is only a temporary replacement.Come to think of it, it won't be long before the job is restored.

The interim Shaoqing of Dali Temple would not be really high-spirited, and he would definitely ask Xie Lan for instructions on everything.Therefore, in Dali Temple, the identity of the boss is still Xie Lan.

In fact, this is a big or small matter, it depends on how Li Jiancheng handles him.

From a big point of view, the Xie family's crimes are naturally forgiven; from a small point of view, the result of such a settlement is naturally a happy one.However, the truth that "some people are happy and others are sad" remains unchanged.

This is not.Zheng Kaixian, the minister of punishment, Yang Jianhe, a doctor of Taizhong, and Liu Haoming, a doctor of Zhengyi.General Zhige Wang Delu had an ugly look on his face.If they knew that Li Jiancheng was being dealt with so lightly, they would have stood up and pleaded guilty a long time ago, so how could they have foolishly resisted.

The hussar general Wang Detian was even more tragic, and was killed by Li Jiancheng in the blink of an eye.

"Okay. Lord Xie Lan, please stand aside. The positions of Xie Yuanhuan and Xie Hui are no longer suitable for the court. Go back to the place where you should go, and do your job well. Don't let the prince down. .”

"The minister obeys the order!"

Xie Yuanhuan and Xie Hui responded with a relaxed expression, Li Jiancheng's handling result.It really made them feel relieved.Naturally, there would be no complaints in his heart, and he happily left the hall after accepting the order.

"Okay, now think about how you guys should deal with it."

Li Jiancheng squinted his eyes, only a slit was exposed, and his sharp eyes swept over the four of them, immediately making them feel a little uncomfortable.

After sweeping his gaze over the four of them, Li Jiancheng said to the servant standing beside Li Yuan, "General Yi Jun, He Bin, goes to the palace."

Although he was a little puzzled about Li Jiancheng's announcement of He Bin going to the palace, the servant also knew it.Prince Li Jiancheng is not something he can provoke.after all.Li Jiancheng was the only person the servant had ever seen who dared to speak to Li Yuan in such words, not even the humerus ministers, perhaps because he had the courage to speak to Li Yuan.

And He Bin was originally just a leader in Li Jiancheng's base. At that time, he led Li Jiancheng's [Xunlei] cavalry team in the battle against Tubo.Extraordinary results were achieved.Although Li Jiancheng was not cited, the Ministry of War naturally credited him for his contributions.

Also because of Li Jiancheng.Therefore, He Bin, who had no official position, was able to survive this war.The duty of being General Yijun.

How to put it, the sixth grade is not an official position that can be obtained so easily.

"Kick, kick, kick..."

There was a sound of hurried footsteps, and then a young general walked in under the leadership of the servant.Needless to say, this young general was naturally He Bin.

He Bin, who is no more than 25 years old now, has a smooth official career, exuding a high-spirited momentum when walking.

He Bin is He Qing's younger brother and Qin Yao's uncle, so he is also Li Jiancheng's uncle.Now that I am young and energetic, it is inevitable to have such a mentality.After all, no one is like Li Jiancheng, in this youthful appearance hides a mature heart.

Li Jiancheng will not think like other people, because he is a relative so he doesn't need it.As long as he has the ability, no matter who he is, he will appoint him. Whoever has something to say, let him say it in front of him. Who is he, Li Jiancheng, afraid of?

"Wow, wow, wow..."

While walking, the crisp friction sound of the armor fluttered in the hall.And under the sunshine, the icy cold light stimulated the hearts of many civil servants in the hall.They didn't expect that a general of the sixth rank could exude the aura that only a commander of an army can have.

Perhaps, in the future, he will be a pillar of the Tang Empire again.

But the generals looked at the suit of armor on He Bin with envy. After all, even if they were first-rank generals present, they did not have this set of armor that looked so cool on He Bin.

It's not that Li Tang has no money, but that the technology is not up to scratch.

This set of armor is made of fine iron, and it is made by a hundred refining methods.

There is no such high-tech in the future today, it is purely made by hand, and it took two months for such a piece.Accumulated over the years, Li Jiancheng has no more than a hundred pieces of armor of this quality.

Of course, it would be a different matter if the blacksmiths at Li Jiancheng's base only made this armor, but this is obviously impossible.

Therefore, the quality of this set of armor is not generally good.

In terms of defense, if there is no such weapon as in Li Jiancheng's base, not to mention hurting people, it may be their own weapon that is cut up and broken; even if it is a weapon made of steel in Li Jiancheng's base, it is not easy. It can cut through the armor, which shows the high defense of this armor.

Of course, it is not very rare in terms of defensive power, but more importantly, its weight.

This set of armor weighs no more than twenty catties, which seems like a lot.However, it is obvious how much weight it has when it is distributed to various parts of the body.You must know that the standard armor of the imperial court today, except for some generals, weighs about [-] catties, and the others basically weigh [-] to [-] catties, and some even weigh a hundred catties.

Think about it, on the battlefield, one is fighting with people behind his back, and the other is equivalent to fighting without burden. Isn't the result self-evident?

Therefore, it is inevitable that the generals above the hall are jealous.

He Bin didn't rely on his actions, but relied on his own efforts to become General Yijun. In addition to the previous contributions, this armor can be regarded as Li Jiancheng's reward for him.

And even in the entire base, there are no more than ten leaders who can have such armor.

"The last general, He Bin, greets His Majesty, Your Highness the Crown Prince..."

The young man is full of vigor, and He Bin's voice is loud and clear.

"General He is flat, you stand aside, I will have a word with the prince first."

Li Yuan said, and then fixed his eyes on Li Jiancheng, with a dangerous light shining deep in his eyes, which made Li Jiancheng feel a little bad.

Then, Li Yuan really said something that gave Li Jiancheng a headache and made all the officials collapse. (To be continued..)
