Li You's Tang Dynasty

Chapter 744
"Your Majesty!" Li You bowed slightly and looked at Li Zhi.

"Fifth Brother, please say...!" Li Zhi still directly called Li You Fifth Brother.

Li You pointed to Xue Wanche and others on the side and said: "Fang Yiai's treason case has too many doubts, so I suggest that the three divisions should have a joint trial, and His Majesty will personally interrogate the rebels. However, some people dare to use their power to frame the minister. , then Your Majesty needn’t be relentless.”

"Elder Changsun Ge, what do you think?" Li Zhi asked Changsun Wuji. You must know that Changsun Wuji was helpless at this time, because he went too far this time.

This time Changsun Wuji wanted too much to wipe out all his enemies at once, so all the charges used were framed, and they were completely untenable.

You say that the other party is rebelling, but if the other party is rebelling, then he must have the strength to rebel, but if you look around, who has the strength to rebel among the people listed by Changsun Wuji.

Xue Wanche was dismissed from office by Li Shimin and exiled to Xiangzhou. After being amnesty, he returned his military power and his military power was confiscated. Tell me, what did he use to plot rebellion, just because he uttered big words after drinking a little wine?

Li Daozong. In the 21st year of Zhenguan Zhenguan, he asked to stay idle due to physical discomfort, and became Taichangqing. The military power was handed over long ago. There was an old grudge between him and Chu Suiliang, because Chu Suiliang was not a good person.

Li Shimin likes calligraphy, and he writes well in Feibai style.Li Shimin not only likes to write, but also likes to collect calligraphy works.Wei Zheng appreciated Chu Suiliang's calligraphy, so he recommended Chu Suiliang to calligraphy enthusiast Li Shimin.Chu Suiliang was able to get Li Shimin's attention, relying on calligraphy.

After Chu Suiliang became prosperous, he hugged Changsun Wuji's thigh tightly and became an important member of Changsun Wuji's group.In the process of Li Shimin abolishing the crown prince, Changsun Wuji and Chu Suiliang supported Jin Wang Li Zhi.Prime Ministers Cen Wenwen and Liu Sidao supported Wei Wang Li Tai.This battle ended with the victory of Jin Wang Li Zhi.

After Li Shimin canonized Li Zhi as the prince, he intended to bridge the conflict between the Wei Wang faction and the Jin Wang faction, so he appointed Changsun Wuji as the prince and Taishi, and Fang Xuanling as the prince and Taifu.Liu Sidao, Cen Wenwen, Chu Suiliang, Ma Zhou and other prime ministers were also asked to take turns teaching Li Zhi.

Chu Suiliang believed that the prince was supported by his eldest grandson Wuji and himself, and he was unwilling to share the glory of the future emperor with Fang Xuanling, Cen Wenwen, Liu Sidao, and Ma Zhou, so he was looking for clues to kill Liu Sidao and Cen Wenwen.Cen Wenwen knew that Chu Suiliang couldn't tolerate him, so he died of depression, really died.

After Cen Wenwen's death, Chu Suiliang targeted Liu Sidao again.Li Shimin was seriously ill, and Liu Sidao went to visit Shenggong.After Liu Sidao came out, he cried and said to Ma Zhou and Chu Suiliang, "A carbuncle in the upper body is something to be afraid of!"

Chu Suiliang seized the opportunity and falsely accused Liu Sidao.Chu Suiliang said to Li Shimin: "Ji said that the country is not enough to worry about, and it is right to assist the young master in Iraq and Huo's affairs. If the ministers have differences, they will be punished."

After Li Shimin heard about it, he was furious, and immediately questioned Liu Sidao.Liu Sidao denied saying that and asked Ma Zhou to testify.Ma Zhou's testimony is beneficial to Liu Sidao.Chu Suiliang falsely accused Ma Zhou of being Liu Sidao's accomplice. Ma Zhou was afraid of getting burned, so he had to keep silent.Under Chu Suiliang's aggressive false accusation, Liu Sidao was bestowed dead by Li Shimin.

Seeing Liu Sidao's tragic death, Fang Xuanling also knew that Changsun Wuji and Chu Suiliang couldn't tolerate her, so he had to apply for resignation from office.In Li Shimin's later years, Chu Suiliang acted as the pawn of Changsun Wuji, killed Liu Sidao, forced Fang Xuanling to leave, and became Li Shimin's second prime minister in his later years.When Li Shimin was dying, he listed Changsun Wuji and Chu Suiliang as ministers of Tuogu.

But Li Daozong couldn't understand the arrogance of Changsun Wuji and Chu Suiliang, and he had a bad relationship with them, and Chu Suiliang's family forcibly occupied other people's fields and houses, which was directly reported by Li Daozong. The enmity between the two is not small.

It's just that Changsun Wuji was too capable, and soon got Chu Suiliang back. Of course, he would take revenge after getting Chu Suiliang back. This time, Fang Yiai's treason case directly brought Li Daozong in.

Li Yuanjing was the worst, because there was a daughter who married Xuanling's son, Fang Yi, who later dreamed of holding the sun and the moon. This big mouth actually said it by himself. And his final result is that the country will be exterminated without heirs, and all his descendants will die.

Chai Lingwu, hey, the son of Chai Shao and Princess Pingyang, once had a feud with Li You, but now Chai Lingwu is out of work and has only one official position, the son-in-law superintendent.

If you say that the son-in-law is really the worst official position in the Tang Dynasty, just because he has no soldiers and no power, how can he rebel? None of these people have a brain, what do they rely on to rebel, relying on their servants and servants.

To put it bluntly, Changsun Wuji played too much this time, didn't leave any room for himself, and was too confident, so only Li You asked a little question, Changsun Wuji had nothing to say.

After Li Zhi asked Changsun Wuji, Changsun Wuji could only lower his head and said, "Your Majesty, I think it is feasible. The three divisions will conduct a joint trial, and His Majesty will be the presiding judge. The truth will definitely come to light."

Li Zhi looked at his eldest grandson Wuji bowing his head, and felt extremely happy. This should be the first time Li Zhi bowed his head to him. After so many years of being aggrieved, Li Zhi finally found some joy in being an emperor.

"Okay!" Li Zhi was slightly happy: "Okay, since this is the case, then I will decree that Fang Yiai's treason case will be tried again. This time, I will be the presiding judge for the joint trial of the three divisions. Fifth brother... oh. Deputy Judge!"

"I obey the order!" Li You bowed.

In this way, Fang Yiai's treason case was retried. Among them, Li You was the deputy judge, and the three divisions were Dali Temple, the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and Yushitai. The case took seven days to collect various evidences.

But what was surprising was that all the evidence showed that none of the people involved had any obvious evidence to prove that they were suspected of treason, and all the suspicion of treason was actually mentioned by Fang Yiai.

But Fang Yiai also said that what he said was all because of torture. It was Xue Cheng who made him have to say a name. If he didn't say this name, then he would be tortured. In order not to be tortured, Fang Yiai must not Not calling out one name after another.

In the end, according to Li Zhi's personal trial, the so-called Fang Yiai's treason case was nothing at all.

In the end, Xue Cheng was directly beheaded, and everyone in the Ministry of Punishment was also dismissed from office on a large scale. Following the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, he also directly submitted his resignation. At this time, another position in charge of the six departments came out, and all eyes were on him. The Ministry of Punishment is a very important department after taking the position of Minister of the Ministry of Punishment in charge of the six departments.
