Chapter 1099: Are You Satisfied with This Explanation?
"Your Highness the Crown Prince!" Kong Yingda came to the East Palace with a face full of hurt.
Li Tai looked at the injuries on Kong Yingda's face, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
He poured out a cup of tea from the teapot in his hand, handed it to the table, and said, "Mr. Yingda is suffering, sit down and have a cup of tea."
Kong Yingda was filled with grievances. .??.
Although Wei Zheng was called a civil servant, he was also very skilled.
The meal just now had left him unable to find his way.
At this moment, there were injuries everywhere on his face and body.
But as for Wei Zheng, nothing happened.
Li Tai sent someone over and drove Wei Zheng back home.
"Your Highness, what do you plan to do with Wei Zheng?" Kong Yingda had no intention of drinking tea now.
He just wanted to take revenge on Wei Zheng as soon as possible.
The dignified head of the Kong family was beaten down by Wei Zheng at the gate of the city, with hundreds of people watching.
How can Kong Yingda hold his head high in the future?
Kong Yingda thought about it now, as if Zhao Chen had his legs broken in front of all the officials that day, as humiliating as it was.
"Wei Zheng is the minister appointed by the emperor to supervise the country. Although he dealt with you today, I cannot do anything to him."
"But with today's incident, I have reason to confine him at home."
"He can't get involved in the affairs in the court. This saves me a lot of worry." Li Tai said lightly and took a sip of the tea in the cup.
The art of making tea was learned from the restaurant Zhao Chen opened before.
The bitterness in the mouth and the sweetness in the aftertaste made Li Tai enjoy it very much.
He felt that this tea was just like his own experience. After many struggles, he finally won the sweetness.
Kong Yingda was not very interested.
He was humiliated by Wei Zheng, and Wei Zheng was just imprisoned, so in the future Kong Yingda would walk down Chang'an Street as a joke?
"Don't worry, Mr. Yingda, I will not forget your contribution. When this matter subsides and Zhao Chen is brought to justice, I will definitely report your contribution to the emperor."
"It just so happens that old guy Wei Zheng is determined to fight Zhao Chen to the death. His servant shooting position
I will recommend you, Mr. Yingda, to my father. Li Tai looked at Kong Yingda and said with a smile.
As soon as he heard that Li Tai was going to recommend him to the emperor as a minister, Kong Yingda's sad look disappeared instantly.
Compared to the position of Minister Pushe, any humiliation is not a problem.
"I would like to thank His Highness the Crown Prince for your kindness." Kong Yingda beamed with joy and deeply held hands with Li Tai.
He picked up the tea that Li Tai had placed on the table and drank it in one gulp.
…
"What?"
"Brother Xuancheng beat Kong Yingda at the city gate and was imprisoned in the palace by the prince?"
When Fang Xuanling heard the news, he was a little confused.
Why did this nice guy get into a fight with Kong Yingda?
"Fang Xuanling, this is how it is..." The visitor briefly explained the matter to Fang Xuanling.
After hearing this, Fang Xuanling realized that this was something Li Tai had done deliberately.
Why has he never heard about Goguryeo spies before?
As soon as Li Ruoshuang came back, this happened suddenly?
There was also a fight between Kong Yingda and Wei Zheng at the city gate, which didn't look like an accident.
"You handle matters here first, and wait until I come back." Fang Xuanling told the visitor, turned around and left the Zhongshu Provincial Government Office.
Fang Xuanling didn't go anywhere else, but went straight to the East Palace.
He needed to see what Li Tai wanted to do.
Not long after, Fang Xuanling saw Li Tai and Kong Yingda, who was beaten and covered with injuries.
Fang Xuanling was also shocked that Kong Yingda, who had been beaten like this by Wei Zheng, still had the strength to come here.
"Is Fang Xiang here here about Wei Pushe?"
"If it's because of this, then don't say anything."
"Mr. Yingda is the head of the Kong family. The Kong family's literary name has been passed down for thousands of years, but today he was replaced by Wei servant
She was beaten like this in front of the people. "
"If I don't capture him, I won't be able to explain to the people, nor will I be able to explain to the scholars in the world."
"Of course, Wei Pushe was appointed by the Emperor Father. Before the Emperor Father comes, I will not make any substantial punishment."
"I just hope that he can stay in his house and reflect on his mistakes." Li Tai said to Fang Xuanling.
It can be regarded as blocking Fang Xuanling's mouth to plead for mercy.
After hearing what Li Tai said, Fang Xuanling naturally knew that Wei Zheng could not plead for mercy.
Naturally, I stopped talking about it now.
"I'm not here today for this matter." Wei Zheng changed the subject and slightly held his hand.
"I heard that the city gate was suddenly closed today and no troops were allowed to leave the city. I heard that there were Goguryeo spies."
"I want to know why I haven't heard about this before."
"Also, if there are spies, why can't the army leave the city?" Fang Xuanling looked at Li Tai.
Li Tai looked indifferent. He had long expected Fang Xuanling to ask such a question.
He smiled slightly and said: "The matter of Goguryeo spies is of great importance. I am worried about leaking the news, so I did not tell others."
"As for the army not being allowed to leave the city, that's because after I caught the spies and interrogated them, I learned that there were also their people in the army."
"But before I could ask any more questions, the spy committed suicide."
"So now we don't know which army or which person is the Goguryeo spy."
"Is this explanation satisfactory to the prime minister?"
After saying that, Li Tai looked at Fang Xuanling with a smile.
Fang Xuanling raised her head and looked at Li Tai in front of her, feeling a little strange.
What Li Tai said today did not allow him to find any loopholes.
Fang Xuanling would not be stupid enough to read the confessions of Goguryeo spies.
Since Li Tai dared to say these things, he must have been prepared a long time ago.
What's more, Li Tai finally returned
Ask yourself whether you are satisfied with his explanation.
If it's so full of ridicule, why do you still need to look for trouble on your own?
"If Wei Pushe is imprisoned in the house, I may not be able to handle the affairs of the court." Fang Xuanling knew that if he didn't talk about it, Li Tai would mention it later.
Fang Xuanling regretted at this moment that she had promised to let Li Tai help handle political affairs.
Otherwise, it wouldn’t be what it is today.
"If the Prime Minister is too busy, I happen to have a good candidate."
"Mr. Yingda is knowledgeable and well-connected in the DPRK. He can help handle political affairs."
"How does Fang Xiang feel?" Li Tai asked Fang Xuanling again.
Of course Fang Xuanling wanted to refuse.
But did you refuse it yourself?
Wei Zheng had already been imprisoned by Li Tai's design. He objected, but Li Tai found an excuse to imprison him?
Kong Yingda on the side just heard that Li Tai promised him to be a minister, but he didn't expect it to happen so soon.
I felt indescribable excitement in my heart at the moment.
His eyes were fixed on Fang Xuanling.
"Why, the prime minister thinks Mr. Yingda is not suitable?" Li Tai took a sip of tea and asked.
Fang Xuanling sighed secretly.
At this point, he had no other choice but to obey Li Tai's words.
"No, I am thinking about what aspects of government affairs should be handed over to Mr. Yingda if he helps with government affairs."
"That's it, that's just right. Let Mr. Yingda do Wei Pushe's duties."
"Mr. Yingda, what do you think?" Li Tai smiled and looked at Kong Yingda, who was already a little scared and impatient.
"I would like to thank His Highness the Crown Prince." Kong Yingda walked forward and held hands with Li Tai deeply.
The look on his face was extremely excited.
Fang Xuanling looked at the scene in front of him and knew that he was alone in the court at this moment and was very weak.
A layer of gloom fell over my heart.
