Chapter 129 Removal together

"Doctor, call the doctor!"

Qin Lang shouted loudly.

He stepped forward to help Li Daozong up, and found that the young county king had passed out at this time, Li Shimin strode forward and pulled Qin Lang away, "Daozong!"

Li Daozong didn't respond even after shouting a few times.

The imperial doctor arrived soon, and immediately took medicine after some examination.

"How?" Li Shimin asked sullenly.

The gray-bearded imperial doctor replied anxiously, "King Jiang Xia's left eye was hit hard, and the injury was serious, and he might lose his sight."

As soon as these words came out, not only Li Shimin was furious, but also Yu Chigong and others were all panicked.

"No matter what method you use, you must keep Daozong's eye, you must!" Li Shimin shouted angrily.

The imperial doctor complained incessantly, but he could only listen to the order, "Your Majesty, please immediately send guards to send King Jiangxia to a quiet place for treatment, medicine and rest. I will do my best to find a way to keep King Jiangxia's eyes."

The guards of Qianniu carried King Jiang Xia away.

In Xiande Hall, the atmosphere was stagnant.

Li Shimin glanced at the group of people who were fighting just now.

"Who is it, who injured Daozong just now?"

Yu Chigong stood up, "It seems to be a minister."

Li Shimin let out a long breath, his face full of unconcealable anger, his eyes swept over Yu Chigong's face, and then fell on the faces of Cheng Yaojin, Li Shentong, Li Xiaogong, Qin Lang, Hou Junji and others.

These guys got into a fight, and all of them were a bit disheveled, especially Li Shentong's hair was loose and his face was bruised, even Li Xiaogong's clothes were torn and his jade belt was broken.

Shentong's eight sons, some even lost some of their teeth.

Looking at this appearance, Li Shimin's heart burst into flames.

"Why did it start, why are you fighting here?"

Qin Lang stepped forward.

"Your Majesty, this matter is caused by the minister." Qin Lang took the initiative to tell the story truthfully, very fair and objective.

Li Shimin listened quietly.

"Just because of such a little shit?"

Li Shimin shouted and asked Li Shentong, "Uncle was dissatisfied with this reward in the palace earlier, and Gu has already explained it. Why do you still insist on it? Qin Lang was conferred by me, and I wanted him to take the position of uncle just now." , Uncle must make trouble today, in front of so many officials and foreign guests?"

After finishing speaking, he asked Yu Chigong directly, "You are a hero of the country, but now you don't look like a minister?"

Li Shimin stared directly at Yuchi, so that he dared not look up.

The young emperor glanced at the crowd, and said a word coldly, "I read history books, and found that there were very few heroes of Han Gaozu who could be preserved, and privately felt that Han Gaozu was too ruthless. But now I am enthroned. One day, I realized that the killing of Han Xin and Peng Yue was not entirely the fault of Emperor Gaozu of Han Dynasty. As heroes, I have treated you well, rewarded nobles with rich salary, and appointed high-ranking officials and important positions, but this is how you repay me Is it?"

"I hope that you will be strict with yourself in the future, don't get carried away, let alone do things that you regret!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.

Even Qin Lang couldn't help but secretly startled, the emperor brought out Liu Bang's murder of heroes, this is really the most severe warning.

Don't say that you are unpredictable.

"My minister, Qin Lang, is guilty, and today's affairs are all caused by my minister, my minister pleads guilty!" Qin Lang bowed down and pleaded guilty.

Although Yu Chigong was dissatisfied in his heart, he also knew that he had offended the emperor today, so he knelt down and pleaded guilty.

Cheng Yaojin and Hou Junji pleaded guilty.

Li Shentong is now deeply regretful and panicked, so he also knelt down and pleaded guilty.

Li Xiaogong knelt down to plead guilty with a cold face.

Li Shentong's brothers and sons also knelt down to plead guilty.

Li Shimin flicked his sleeves and returned to the throne.

"In the second year of Wude, I led an army across the Yellow River from Longmen Pass, stationed troops at Baibi, conquered Liu Wuzhou, and confronted Song Jingang's army. Daozong was seventeen years old at the time. The army ran out of supplies, and Daozong led the cavalry in pursuit, and won the battle! After that, I led the army to recapture Hedong, which is crucial to the consolidation of Guanzhong and the subsequent struggle for the Central Plains."

"From the third to fourth year of Wude, Daozong followed me in Luoyang and Hulao, and led his troops to defeat Wang Shichong, Dou Jiande, etc., and won the Central Plains War, making great contributions to the unification of the Tang Dynasty."

"From the fifth to ninth year of Wude, Daozong was appointed as the governor of Lingzhou, guarding the front line of Lingwu, repeatedly defeating the invasions of Liang Shidu and Turkic Yushe, and made great contributions to Pingfan Guanzhong."

"Now Daozong is the governor of Yongzhou, who is in charge of guarding Chang'an. At such a critical juncture, you have injured my general at this palace banquet, and you may even blind him. You say, how bad it is! Behavior!"

"Don't think that you are the only ones who deserve credit!"

"The subject is guilty!" It was the first time Qin Lang and others saw Li Shimin so angry.

The more Li Shimin talked, the more angry he was, he kicked the imperial case over with his last kick, and walked away, and the originally happy palace banquet ended.

After a while, the **** made a decree.

"Li Shentong, King of Huai'an, Li Xiaogong, King of Hejian, Li Shenfu, King of Xiangyi...Wu Guogong Wei Chigong, Yiguo Gong Qin Lang, Luguo Gonghou Junji, Suguogong Cheng Zhijie, Fanguo Gong Duan Zhixuan, Xiangwujungong Liu Shili wait, "

"All the ministers are in high positions, but their speech and behavior are inappropriate. They are all guilty of being disrespectful to the emperor. They will be dismissed from all official positions and ordered to go home and think about their mistakes behind closed doors!"

"The princes of Huai'an King were young and had not made great achievements in the country. Now they have behaved badly in front of the imperial court, and they are all demoted to county lords."

·······

The emperor dealt with the two groups of people who were fighting severely. First, they all took off their posts and went home to reflect. Then, the eight princes of Li Shentong who were crowned kings by Li Yuan took the opportunity to demote them all to county marquis, down four ranks in a row.

A good banquet broke up badly.

Although Li Daozong was not deprived of office and demoted, he still doesn't know whether that eye will be saved or not.

Qin Lang was also removed from the positions of Sanqi Changshi and Zhenfu Sicheng because of this, and the ranks of Yi Guogong, Shangzhu Guo and Doctor Jin Ziguanglu were not affected.

Walking out of the palace gate, Qin Lang and Yuchi Gong Cheng Yaojin looked at each other and smiled.

Everyone smiled bitterly.

Yu Chigong scratched his head, "Damn it, what's the matter."

Qin Lang cupped his hands, "It's my nephew who implicated Uncle Yuchi."

Lao Hei waved his hand, "Come on, I can't get used to that old **** Huai'an Wang. He was besieged by Liu Heitai back then, and I personally led the troops to break through the siege to rescue him. It's good enough to put on a show in front of Lao Tzu, bah."

The King of Huai'an prides himself on his clan, the successor of the Eight Pillars Kingdom, so although he is usually called the idiot king in private, who doesn't know how to fight and lead troops, he looks down on generals like Yu Chigong who come from grassroots backgrounds, and always demeaning generals when he seizes the opportunity. Fan.

In the past, Yuchi Gong was just a general of the Qin Palace, with a low status. Of course, he was incomparable with the favorite minister of the Wude emperor like King Huai'an, but now Yu Chigong is the most meritorious official of the new dynasty. Li Shentong still dares to despise him. Of course I can bear it.

I just didn't expect this brawl to get out of control.

Yuchi Gong was born in the northern ironworker, but in the Sui Dynasty he had already joined the army to beg for thieves and was awarded the fifth rank. He was also a general after Liu Wuzhou. Eyebrow raised, who would have expected such a fart to happen.

"Let's go, this matter has nothing to do with you, Qin Sanlang." Yuchi waved his hand and strode home.

Duan Zhixuan, Hou Junji, and Liu Shili were also dismissed this time, but everyone didn't take it seriously. The emperor was furious and convicted him for a while, but he will definitely be reinstated in a short time, especially at the moment of the Turkic invasion.

"Sanlang, don't blame yourself. We really don't blame us for this matter. It's mainly that old man who provoked trouble. What are we afraid of? Water floods the soil and soldiers come to block us. We are all heroes of the dragon. What?" Hou Junji said with a chuckle.

"gone!"

In the end, Cheng Yaojin and Qin Lang were left.

Old Cheng patted Qin Lang on the shoulder, "Your ability to make trouble is second to none."

"Uncle Cheng, don't talk nonsense, you can't blame me for this."

"Anyway, now Li Shentong must hate you to death. It is estimated that even Li Xiaogong and Li Daozong will write down this Liangzi. You say how many people you have offended now."

"Hey, we are not troublemakers either, but we are not afraid of trouble." Qin Lang said.

"Go home and have a good rest for two days. I think it won't be long before you'll be fine." Old Cheng patted Qin Lang on the shoulder, "Damn, you really can make troubles, but you really have skills. It's been a year, and now it's not as good as your boy."

"Don't say that, Uncle Cheng, how can I compare with you, you are now General Youwuwei!"

"My mother's rank is only from General Yunhui of the third rank!" Old Cheng was heartbroken that he could not compare with his old brother Qin Qiong, but now even Qin Qiong's son can't keep up.

"Aren't we all dismissed from office now, and go home to deal with crimes?"

"I hope that Li Daozong will not be blind, otherwise we will definitely not be able to escape the heavy punishment. If we are only injured, as long as we are not blind, we will be able to escape this disaster."

Out of the palace gate, Qin Lang and Cheng Yaojin bid farewell to each other, went back to their respective houses, and went to find their respective wives.

Riding a horse on the street, Qin Lang also noticed that the atmosphere in Chang'an City seemed to be a bit different. Originally, the entire Chang'an City was supposed to be noisy and festive at Li Shimin's enthronement ceremony today, but the fact is that it is a little deserted now, and there are not many people to see on the street. people.

Li Cunxiao, who was leading the horse, told Qin Lang, "Chang'an City is under martial law, and Turkic cavalry have frequently appeared on the north bank of the Weihe River. Now the people in the entire Gyeonggi area know that the Turkic people are coming. Now the governments everywhere let the people bring their families, livestock, food, etc. After moving into the city, many people rushed to the big city, and many more flocked to Chang'an, the guards on the left and right have ordered the nine gates of Chang'an to be closed to prevent outsiders from entering the city."

The gates in the north of Chang’an City are guarded by the Beiya Forbidden Army. Except for the gates in the north, there are three gates on each of the other three sides. Therefore, there are nine gates, all of which are guarded by left and right guards.

The guards on the left and right have started to block the city gates. It seems that the situation is indeed very tense.
