(Thanks to Fan_Hualuojin, 227264622, Saosaozhu, Yiqing for the monthly ticket, zuo3208 for the tip)

As soon as Fang Xuanling's words fell, Changsun Wuji snorted, "He has a good plan to use the dissatisfaction of the elites and nobles with Li Yin to benefit Li You, and he doesn't want Li You to be like Li Yin. Sit on the prince."

Changsun Wuji's analysis hit the nail on the head, and Wei Zheng also had to admire him. Changsun Wuji is indeed an expert in governing the country, and he has a thorough understanding of the court situation, "From the perspective of Changsun Pavilion, how should we deal with this time? However, Li Yin has indeed done a lot of practical things for the Tang Dynasty in the past year. First, he defeated Tuyuhun and solved the border troubles of the Tang Dynasty for more than ten years. Second, according to the statistics at the end of the year, it is only this Yizhou's taxes to the imperial court have reached three million guan a year, accounting for one-fifth of the total taxes, and with these two alone, no one can blame the sixth prince for anything."

Fang Xuanling also nodded, "Not only that, the imperial court also saved the expenses of Bashu, which is equivalent to only going in and out. It also saved money and food for the garrison, stabilized the southwest border, and more importantly, Li Yin obeyed His Majesty's words. , is also loyal to Datang, no one can say anything."

"Li Yin's ability depends on that Luo Anguo. His Majesty made him a vassal for this reason. This is a special situation. After all, your majesty is not ignorant of the dangers of a vassal. A loyal vassal is certainly right. The imperial court is beneficial, but it is hard to say for a vassal king who has a different heart. Of course, His Majesty knows it well, so, except for Li Yin, His Majesty will not confer any other vassal kings. Master Yin will only be busy. The two elders should also think about the Great Tang!" Changsun Wuji meant something, he said this for the sake of Great Tang, and to suppress Yin Shishi.

Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng nodded when they heard the words, and they agreed with what Changsun Wuji said. That is, Datang can no longer have a second vassal king.

In the past two days, Li Yin has been paying attention to the dynamics of the court. Today Li Shimin announced the early court, and Li Yin was notified to go.

Putting on his official uniform, Li Yin rode his horse towards the Tai Chi Hall, followed by a carriage behind him, and a dozen guards stood guard on both sides of the carriage, responsible for the safety of the carriage.

When Li Yin arrived at the Tai Chi Hall. Basically, all the ministers have arrived, and the atmosphere in the court hall is very strange. Li Yin glanced at it and clearly felt that these ministers have been divided into different camps. It seems that today's morning court will be very lively.

Found his own position, Li Yin just stopped. Li Shimin walked in from outside the hall, and before he was seated, he stood up alone, "Your Majesty, this old minister has something to play!"

This person is Yin Shishi, the servant of the household department, and the father of Concubine Yin. Uncle of the dynasty.

"Say!" Li Shimin was obviously not in a good mood.

"The old minister impeached the king of Shu, Li Yin, without the law, mobilized the army without reason, and beat the fifth prince without reason, causing the fifth prince to be seriously injured. The emperor broke the law and committed the same crime as the common people. The old minister implores His Highness to punish the sixth prince to rectify the law!" Yin Shishi said urgently.

When Yin Shishi said what he said, many ministers immediately began to discuss that the so-called emperor breaking the law and the common people are guilty of the same crime is just a slogan. The emperor killed someone and could lock him up. Li Yin is not only a prince, but also a vassal king. This law is even more indefinable to him.

Yin Shishi didn't finish his sentence, he continued: "And the old minister also feels wronged by the fifth prince. The sixth prince and the fifth prince are both princes who are away. Why can the sixth prince be a vassal king? But the fifth prince can't, the old minister hopes Your Highness treats everyone equally, so as not to chill the hearts of the princes."

Li Shimin frowned when he heard this. He summoned the courtiers today just to quell the fight between Li Yin and Li You. Stopping the rumors among the people has no other meaning. Whether Li Yin beat Li You for no reason, or Li You failed to assassinate Li Yin, this is the end of the matter. He thought that these old officials could guess what he meant. Unexpectedly, this Yin Shishi jumped out to call for Li You's injustice instead, it was really a thief calling for a thief.

Changsun Wuji had already figured out the move of the Yin Shishihui, so he said: "The fifth prince and the sixth prince have some minor conflicts, that is also the emperor's family business, we ministers should not get involved, the emperor will make a clear decision, let's talk about it." Regarding the matter of the vassal king, as the servant of the household department, Uncle Yin should also know how much tax the King of Shu has paid this year! Can the King of Qi do it? And does the King of Qi have a frontier to defend?"

Li Shimin thought that the eldest grandson Wuji knew him well, so he couldn't help but smiled, "The auxiliary machine is right, you don't care about the prince's dispute, as for the matter of the vassal king, it is also a special situation, and I will not set up another one." prince."

Yin Shishi contacted many officials, how could he just let it go, if Li You can become the vassal king, then the throne will be one step further away from Li You, "Your Majesty, the family affairs of the subjects are just family affairs, but the family affairs of the Emperor are state affairs. As for the matter of the vassal king, if the fifth prince can sit on the position of the king of Shu and own the land of Bashu, taxation and border guards will not be a problem."

As soon as Yin Shishi finished speaking, the entire court fell silent. Now everyone understood what Yin Shishi meant. He wanted Li You to replace Li Yin.

"I think Uncle Yin is right. The sixth prince beat his elder brother openly and behaved badly. How can he be the king of Shu? I think the fifth prince has both benevolence and filial piety, so he is more qualified to be the king of Shu." A minister came out and said.

"I think so too!" Another seven or eight ministers stood up.

These dozen or so ministers are all from the big families of the nobles. They have been coveting the fat meat in Yizhou for a long time, and Yin Shishi accurately grasped this point, and promised them that if Li You became the king of Shu, They can share the wealth of Yizhou, people die for wealth, birds die for food, their family inheritance is only a word of profit, let alone come out to say a few words to help, fail, Li Shimin can't do anything to them.

Li Shimin's expression didn't change and he just watched the ministers who came out. He knew that if he didn't find out what happened to Li Yin and Li You, these people would have nothing to worry about, and they were going to turn black and white. Admitting that they wanted to vent their anger on Li You, the unauthorized action has nothing to do with Li You, which is not good for Li Yin. Thinking of this, he looked up at Li Yin, only to see Li Yin's expressionless face, not knowing what he was thinking.

"The matter of the vassal king is a child's play, and there is no basis. How could the king of Shu break into the king's residence to teach the king of Qi." Cui Shao said at this time.

"Yes, it is said that there are no waves without wind, and flies do not bite seamless eggs."

"What a joke!"

"..."

Many people began to agree with Cui Shao's words, Li Yin was a little proud, he was quite popular in court!

Changsun Wuji said in a mocking tone: "The king of Shu has misbehavior? The king of Qi is benevolent and filial? It is said that the king of Qi hunts excessively in Qizhou, favors those who are good at riding and shooting hunters, and neglects government affairs. How can this be explained?"

"The old minister has also heard a lot of rumors about King Qi. It is said that the long history Quan Wanji sent by the emperor has often criticized King Qi's misconduct." Fang Xuanling said.

On the way, the three of them had already discussed it. Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling wanted to suppress Yin Shishi, while Wei Zheng was purely out of justice, "Uncle Yin, the matter of the fifth and sixth princes has not been investigated clearly. How can you be so sure that the sixth prince beat the fifth prince for no reason?"

Three veterans and Cui Shao challenged him together, Yin Shishi was a little overwhelmed, Cui Shao still said the past, he did not expect that the eldest grandson Wuji, who had always been at odds with Li Yin, would also speak for Li Yin.

"Whether the sixth prince beat the fifth prince for no reason, you only need the emperor to bring the person who burned down the Shu king's residence that night to the hall to ask." Yin Shishi looked at Li Shimin.

Li Shimin was also a little impatient. During the Chinese New Year, he was still fighting back and forth. He felt annoyed when he didn't have a peaceful day, "I said, this matter ends here!"

"Father! My son thinks what Uncle Yin Guo said is right, and he should indeed confront the court. My son is not willing to suffer this unfair injustice." Li Yin said suddenly.

Li Shimin looked at Li Yin, who had been silent from the beginning, and didn't understand what kind of tricks Li Yin was playing. If we don't find out the matter between the two, it seems that this gang of ministers is going to be endless, and Li Yin is going to say this, and he doesn't need to cover him up, so he said: "Bring the guards of Prince Qi's mansion with you." Come up."

The guards who received the order left immediately, and soon brought Liang Mengbiao and others up.

Glancing at Liang Mengbiao and others who were lying on the ground like mud, Li Shimin asked, "I'll ask you, who ordered you to burn down the Shu King's Mansion."

Knowing that he must die, Liang Mengbiao became more courageous, he said: "Return to Your Majesty, no one ordered, the king of Shu and the king of Qi have always been at odds, we are the ones who wanted to please the king of Qi, so we decided to burn the mansion of the king of Shu, and Qi King has nothing to do with it."

Yin Shishi looked at the ministers at this time, and said: "Now you are listed as ministers and workers, you have heard it!"

Li Yin sneered again and again, he was waiting for this moment, "Father, my son captured two Qi Palace guards who tried to enter the bedroom to assassinate alive on the night the Shu King's Mansion was burned. Their opinions are different. Now they Outside the palace gate, Emperor Father can let them in to confront each other in court."

Shishi Yin's heart trembled, the secret channel was broken, he didn't expect Li Yin to be so scheming, and he didn't hand over everyone to Li Shimin.

"Uncle Yin, do you want them to confront each other in court?" Li Yin understood Li Shimin's thoughts, no matter who was right or who was wrong, the result would be the same, he just didn't want Master Yin to make a fuss about it.

Yin Shishi is also an old fox with a thick skin that can't be shot through with a gun. He immediately turned the rudder when he lost the wind. He didn't dare to take the risk, and said: "This is the emperor's family business. Let the emperor make the decision?"

There was a smile on Li Shimin's face. He loved and hated Li Yin at the same time. What he loved was that Li Yin helped him solve the problem again.

"The blue is better than the blue!" Li Shimin thought with satisfaction.
