I am a thief in the Tang Dynasty

"I even suggested to Your Majesty that the Duke of Wei, who was loyal and had done great things in eliminating traitors, should be dismissed from office and even beheaded in public."

"I beg Your Majesty to conduct a thorough investigation."

"Give me back the clean court of Li Tang!"

As he spoke, Cheng Yaojin stared straight at Wang Gui.

He didn't mention anyone by name, but this action was no different from saying so.

Wang Gui cursed Cheng Yaojin in his heart.

But the next moment, he stood up, saluted Li Shimin, and said righteously:

"Your Majesty, Duke Su's words are full of pearls. I second your opinion."

"We should thoroughly investigate all officials and uncover those hidden remnants of the Sui Dynasty."

All the civil and military officials in the court looked at Wang Gui with strange expressions.

Li Shimin, who was sitting on the dragon throne, was almost defeated by Wang Gui's shameless behavior and could no longer maintain his majestic image.

Cheng Yaojin was silent for a few breaths, and said to Wang Gui sincerely:

"Sir Wang, when it comes to shamelessness, I, Old Cheng, am not as good as you!"

Chapter 632 Those People Are Too Shameless

There was nothing strange about Wang Gui's expression.

With decades of shrewdness, he remains calm in the face of praise or criticism.

He said to Cheng Yaojin with a serious face:

"General Cheng, I feel that Duke Wei has killed too many people, which is against the harmony of nature."

"I have reported him to the emperor, and His Majesty will at most give Duke Wei a small punishment or a severe warning."

"But I will never watch those treacherous officials disrupt the Tang Dynasty and harm the people."

"As a minister of remonstrance, I am loyal to my country and Your Majesty. Heaven and earth can bear witness to this."

At this point, Wang Gui's eyes seemed to be filled with thunder, he scanned the entire audience, and said loudly:

"I hope all the ministers present here will be loyal and good ministers."

"If anyone has the intention of disobeying me, I, Wang Gui, will be the first to kill him with my sword!"

The shocking remarks made by the patriarch of the Taiyuan Wang family, one of the five famous surnames and seven noble families in the world.

The expressions of everyone present tensed up and they were startled.

The officials from the aristocratic families looked at each other and made a decision.

They all took a step forward and echoed Wang Gui's words in unison.

The rest of the officials had happy expressions on their faces.

They understand.

The gentry in the world, headed by the Five Surnames and Seven Families, had no intention of overthrowing the Li Tang Dynasty for the time being.

It also supported Li Tang to consolidate his rule over the world.

And all the struggles for power were limited to the emperor and the nobles.

They are officials of the Li and Tang lineage.

The struggle with the gentry was pure.

There is no need to worry about using excessive language, causing excessive resentment among the nobles and resulting in unbearable costs.

On the Dragon Throne.

Li Shimin had a smile on his face.

I commend all the ministers for rallying around the Tang Dynasty and sharing the same hatred for the enemy.

But deep in his eyes, there was a murderous intent that was suppressed again and again.

As an emperor, his words were instantly responded to by the ministers.

Most people keep silent first and then analyze.

Some individuals would speak up, but most of them would deny or suggest how to make changes.

After Wang Gui's speech, all the ministers responded.

More popular than the emperor himself.

Really...

Damn it!!!

Li Shimin stood up, stared at Wang Gui and said:

"Mr. Wang is an upright gentleman and should be a role model for the other ministers!"

In one sentence, he recognized Wang Gui and these indignant nobles.

It also absolved Wang Gui of the crime of repeatedly impeaching Fang Xuanling and speaking for those rebellious nobles.

The power tactics of the emperor are nothing more than this.

Wang Gui was the first to salute, putting his hands together and bowing completely.

Other noble officials also saluted.

Li Shimin only performed such a solemn ceremony when he ascended the throne.

This was the second time that he received such a great gift from the officials of the aristocratic family.

But Li Shimin really couldn't be happy.

He continued with a relieved smile that didn't seem forced at all:

"I order the Minister of Remonstrance Wang Gui to take full charge of the case against the remnants of the previous dynasty!"

Wang Gui was stunned at first, and his heart trembled.

But the next moment, Wang Gui's face flushed, he suppressed his excitement, bowed and saluted, and said sincerely:

"I will definitely live up to your majesty's trust!"

"We must thoroughly investigate the remnants of the previous dynasty and purge the world!"

……

What followed was the arrest of three important officials.

One assistant minister of the Ministry of War and two fifth-rank officials.

Once the remnants of the previous dynasty are thoroughly investigated, all nine generations of their clan will be executed!

The whole government was shocked. No one could imagine that an important official might be a remnant of the previous dynasty.

Suddenly, everyone in Chang'an city felt in danger.

The Governor's Mansion in Songzhou City.

After reading it, Fang Yiyi stamped his seal on it, but he described it in great detail and without reservation.

Laughing with great joy.

He smiled at Fang Yiyi and said:

"Grandpa, my goodness, I didn't expect that old man Wang Gui would be so shameless."

Fang Xuanling stroked his beard and smiled:

"That's nothing, those people are so shameless!"

Chapter 633: Yiyang is completely different from what we expected

Fang Yiyi returned the letter to Fang Xuanling.

Without saying a word, the father and son looked at each other and understood each other's thoughts.

Fang Xuanling stepped forward and whispered in his ear:

"The three people that Changan caught should be the ones that the Yang family said they wanted to deal with."

"The letter from the Yang family arrived at the same time as your Majesty's."

"There is still a big fish in the Ministry of War. The Yang family's tactics are really powerful."

Fang Yiyi nodded in approval.

A woman, she forced Fang Xuanling to cooperate with her through conspiracy.

It also held up the banner of the former Sui Dynasty.

He laid out all kinds of hidden tricks.

This incident is just the tip of the iceberg.

Enough to see.

If Yang Anling really rebels, all the chess pieces will be out.

Let’s not talk about who will win or lose for now.

But the world will surely be in turmoil again.

Still a big one.

Fang Yiyi couldn't help but admire:

"She must be a wonderful woman!"

Fang Xuanling nodded and continued:

"She asked us to reach Yiyang within six days."

"There should be a big move over there."

Fang Yiyi frowned and said:

"Yiyang belongs to Huainan Road."

"Is it really okay for us to go there?"

"Besides, Yiyang isn't very big, what big moves can be made there?"

"And the Yiyang Song family was mentioned by that person deliberately. What is the connection between the two?"

Fang Xuanling has been thinking about Yiyang these days.

I already have a bold idea in my mind.

He looked at Fang Yiyi, who was in deep thought and confusion.

After thinking about it, I decided to tell my son what I was thinking.

After all, Fang Yiyi's performance during this period can be described as both brave and resourceful!

Hmm... a little too brave.

Other than that, there's nothing wrong with it.

He said aloud:

"I've been thinking about it these days and I think there's a possibility!"

Fang Yiyi listened seriously.

Fang Xuanling pointed in the direction of Yiyang and said:

"Yiyang is far away from Chang'an."

"The area under its jurisdiction is rich in mountains and rivers, and the land is fertile. It can be said to be a land of fish and rice."

"With many mountains, people can be hidden, and it is easy to defend but difficult to attack."

"With more water and fertile land, we can store food."
