Super Hero Monk: Hormones Journey to the West

Chapter 44 Long Yan is furious

The sun is at noon and the world is bright.

In the tall and majestic Taiji Hall, Emperor Taizong of Tang sat high on the dragon throne, his face ashen, looking at the ministers below without saying a word.

Just as the five-star general said -

“People always overestimate the strong who are out of reach and over-glorify the beautiful women who are out of reach. Once you get to know them, you will find that their shit stinks too.”

Good guy~
The court, which was so majestic in the eyes of the people, now looked like a bustling vegetable market.

And those ministers and officials were all like primary school students who ran to the office to complain to their teacher, except that they were at the movie star level, and each of them had eight hundred ideas in their minds.

Some looked serious, some were heartbroken, and some were arguing with their faces red. They all thought that what happened last night was a deliberate rebellion and an offense to the gods.

He also took advantage of the situation to dig up a lot of old accounts, listing all the crimes committed by his "brother" in the past two and a half years, and strongly suggested that the emperor at least sentence him to... beheading.

Of course, there were people who defended Tang Xuanci, but not many.

Apart from the Yin Group, there was only the Crown Prince Li Chengqian's party. Seeing this situation, ordinary officials did not dare to stand up.

Chen Guangrui, who had become the director of the Imperial College, turned pale. He wanted to speak up for his eldest son, but he really didn't know how to argue.

Suddenly, a eunuch came from outside the hall to announce that today's protagonist had arrived!

Upon hearing this, several ministers who were arguing with Yin Kaishan snorted coldly, straightened their clothes and stopped talking temporarily, creating the calm before the storm in the hall.

"Tell him to get in!" Li Shimin said angrily.

Soon, a 191-centimeter figure appeared at the entrance of the hall against the light.

That beauty, that figure, that aura, coupled with the exquisitely embroidered purple robe, she was truly extraordinary and noble.

If Li Shimin did not sit on the dragon throne, any common people who came to see him would probably think that he was the true dragon emperor.

Tang Xuanci looked up to the emperor and walked straight to the seat just behind the crown prince and the princes. He saluted the emperor and asked:

"Second brother, what's the matter? Why are you calling me here so urgently?"

"I've told you so many times, when you're in court, you should address each other as king and minister!"

Li Shimin's tone was filled with anger. He grabbed a few memorials from the table beside him and threw them down, saying:
"Someone accused you of gathering over 200 musketeers last night, storming into a county marquis's residence and killing 48 people, including a newly appointed Jinshi!
"Do you have anything to explain?"

Hearing the emperor's questioning, the Bo Ling Cui group, headed by the Prince's Tutor and the Minister of Rites, became extremely alert, waiting for Tang Xuanci to make excuses and then refute him.

They put all the evidence they could find in place last night.

Moreover, as the highest-ranking players in the court, they knew very well what Li Shimin cared about most.

They thought that Tang Xuanci's action of destroying the body and cleaning up the scene so cleanly last night seemed smart but was actually stupid, which gave them room to make a fuss.

When Tang Xuanci deliberately concealed the truth and lied and argued, they could give full play to the art of language, step by step luring him into a trap and causing the emperor to have great suspicion of this arrogant person.

In addition, Cui also designed a very insidious move, which was to reach a tactical cooperation with the Prince's Party, letting them deliberately go against their norm and help Tang Xuanci speak, completely detonating the chain of suspicion in the emperor's heart.

At that time, it would be strange if the emperor did not take the opportunity to severely suppress Tang Xuanci.

Tang Xuanci had a hot temper and might even dare to contradict the emperor when he got angry. It was not impossible that he would be killed in the end.

Hasn't this kind of thing happened rarely throughout history?

"I have nothing to explain."

Tang Xuanci replied confidently:
"That bitch surnamed Cui dared to hit my girlfriend. I made her kneel down and take thirty slaps. It was all because of my second brother's face. Otherwise, I would have shot her to death.

"And that Jinshi who was raised by a maid, he was the one who started this whole thing, he deserves to die."

Ah this?

Everyone in the Cui Group of Boling was stunned. They didn't expect Tang Xuanci to be so reckless that he couldn't even make excuses.

Other clan alliances, foreign relatives groups, the prince's party, the Qingliu party, and the neutral faction were also stunned. They had served in the court for decades and had never seen such an arrogant and domineering person.

The chairman of the Yin Group was speechless, thinking that this grandson was a little too arrogant. I just argued for so long, but you just admitted it right away. Do you really think that the emperor treats you as his brother?
Even if it was, wouldn't he still kill him?

"Since Attendant Tang has admitted it, please let the Saint make the judgment."

After a brief moment of surprise, an old man in purple clothes standing in the front was the first to react, but he could only change his attack strategy.

Tang Xuanci turned his head and looked at him, frowning, "Who are you? Where did you come from? Why haven't I seen you before?"

"I am the Junior Tutor of the Eastern Palace, my surname is Cui, and my courtesy name is Baiji. Attendant Tang has always been arrogant, so it's no surprise he hasn't met me."

The so-called Donggong Shaofu was nominally a teacher who taught the prince the moral principles of life. (In some dynasties, they also taught martial arts.)

Cui Baiji, in addition to holding the title of Shaofu, was also a highly prestigious Confucian scholar. His disciples were spread throughout the court, and several of his daughters and granddaughters were wives of noble and powerful officials.

It can be said that he is currently the person in charge of the Chang'an branch of the Cui Group.

"So your last name is Cui, Master... Bai Ji~" Tang Xuanci suddenly smiled strangely, "Why the hell isn't your name Bai Jie?" "That's nonsense~" The Master scorned him and continued to advise Li Shimin, "Sage, court officials who break the law are subject to the same punishment as common people. Only by following the law can we win the hearts of the people."

When the ministers behind him heard this, they all agreed and listed Tang Xuanci's crimes again.

Chen Guangrui was almost crying with anxiety. He immediately knelt down to apologize and begged the emperor to show mercy.

Yin Kaishan didn't care about much else and had to speak up for his grandson. He forcibly defined what happened last night as a "mutual fight" and said that among the dead black people was Tang Xuanci's adopted son. Since both sides suffered losses, the worst that could happen was to pay some medical expenses.

However, the Yin family had little education, so how could they compete in debates with the aristocratic families who had monopolized education for thousands of years?

Shaofu Baiji, a great Confucian scholar, was even more sharp-tongued and spoke in a resounding tone, and he criticized Yin Kaishan to death without using a single dirty word.

He also criticized Chen Guangrui for being the director of the Imperial College but having a poor way of educating his children, which was truly ridiculous.

When Tang Xuanci heard this, he glanced at the cowardly Chen Guangrui and immediately pointed at the Master and started cursing:

"Fuck, you old bitch, come to me if you have anything to say. If you curse my dad again, I'll beat you up too."

The young master cast a contemptuous look at him and said:

"What a rebellious fellow! As the saying goes, if a son is not well-disciplined, it is the fault of his father. How dare you be so rude in front of a saint? If he is not a bad parent, what is he?"

"I'm a bastard!"

A wild roar suddenly exploded, drowning out all the sounds in the hall.

The young master only felt his eyes blurry, and saw a figure that was a head taller than him already in front of him. He had no idea how he got there.

Frightened, only one thought came to my mind:
"I am the prince's young wife, holding the second rank. He...wouldn't really dare to hit me in front of the saint, would he?"

"Snapped".

Tang Xuanci slapped him in the face with a big slap.

Shaofu Baiji fell asleep immediately.

Ah this?

Ah this! ?
Ah this!!?

All the civil and military officials in the court were stunned, just like the black dog in the classic emoticon package.

Even the Imperial Censor, who had been kicked by Tang Xuanci before, was shocked.

After all, that kick was given by Tang Xuanci when he was blocking the way to the morning court, but now it happened in the Taiji Hall, in front of Li Shimin.

Li Shimin, sitting on the dragon throne, was stunned for 2.5 seconds. Then he became furious and pointed at Tang Xuanci and shouted:
"How dare you! Capture this beast for me!"

With a "clang" sound, Gao Huitong appeared from nowhere, with his Mo Dao unsheathed and placed on Tang Xuanci's neck.

At the same time, armor rustled, and thirty-six Qianniu Guards rushed up from behind the pillars, drove away the ministers, raised the flintlock rifles with the rarest black iron bullets, and surrounded Tang Xuanci.

"Second brother, it was this old man first~"

Tang Xuanci wanted to say something, but Li Shimin didn't listen at all. He waved his hand and ordered his men to take him away and lock him up to await his fate.

All the officials were in chaos.

Yin Kaishan felt that the pillar of the group was about to collapse. His high blood pressure kicked in, and he felt dizzy and unable to speak.

The people of Cui's group quickly came to their senses. Half of them rushed to Mr. Cui and cried out in pain, while the other half seized the opportunity to ask Li Shimin to punish them.

But just as they opened their mouths, Li Shimin suddenly stood up and overturned the table beside his chair with great force. The frightened eunuchs shouted, "Your Majesty, calm down."

"How outrageous, you bastard... this is outrageous!"

Li Shimin scolded angrily, pointing to the direction of the palace gate and said:

"Is there something wrong with his brain? Is he crazy?

"what!?"

"Come here, call the imperial physician over and check his brain first!"

After saying that, he sat back on the chair.

"Saint, please calm down~"

Several officials from the Cui Group looked at each other and opened their mouths to speak again.

Unexpectedly, Li Shimin stood up again, rushed to the commander of the imperial guards, drew his sword and held it in his hand, and walked to the back of the palace without saying anything.

Ah...this?

All the officials in the hall were confused and didn't understand what this meant. They didn't know whether they should "stay where they are" or "excuse themselves first"?
