The God-Level Prodigal Son of the Tang Dynasty

Hearing Fang Xuanling say that he had something to discuss with them today, everyone couldn't help but look over.

Chu Suiliang's disappearance is already a very important matter.

Shouldn't the top priority now be to find Chu Suiliang?

Why are there still things to discuss with them?

Prime Minister, if you have anything to discuss, just ask. An official said to Fang Xuanling. .??.

The rest of the people said nothing, waiting for Fang Xuanling's next words.

Your Majesty has been in Qizhou for so long, and he doesn't know what the situation is like there.

The Qizhou riot has never been discussed in the court. Today, I would like to ask all my colleagues to discuss the matter together. Fang Xuanling said to everyone.

Many people frowned when they heard Fang Xuanling say that the matter to be discussed was about the Qizhou riot.

Originally, they were not clear about the Qizhou riot.

It was only later that the emperor said he was going to Qizhou, and they realized that such a big thing had happened in Qizhou.

And the even stranger thing is that when faced with the Qizhou riot, the emperor uncharacteristically did not deal with anyone.

It stands to reason that when people riot, local officials, big and small, must be held accountable.

It ranges from dismissal from office to serious consequences, including death.

But even so, the emperor still had no decision this time.

At that time, many ministers were wondering if there was something wrong with the emperor's mind.

Now that Fang Xuanling suddenly mentioned this matter again, what should they say?

Prime Minister, Your Majesty has not taken any action regarding the Qizhou riot before. Isn't it good for us to discuss the matter now? an official said.

What he meant was very obvious, that is, the emperor didn't speak before, and now they are talking about this matter. What if the emperor knows about it and accuses them of being nosy?

If they take on things that the emperor has not spoken about, isn't that just looking for trouble?

r\u003e Prime Minister, this is indeed what you said. Even if we discuss it now, will we issue an order to punish Qizhou officials later?

His Majesty is in Qizhou now. If our punishment is different from the local situation, or even goes against His Majesty's ideas, wouldn't we be disobeying the imperial order? Another official said.

I also don’t want to get involved in something that is unnecessary and can easily offend people.

Prime Minister, let's take another look at this matter. Other officials also advised.

Fang Xuanling smiled bitterly in her heart.

He and Wei Zheng wanted to test the ministers' views on the Qizhou riot.

I want to find out who in the court the emperor suspects is related to the Qizhou riot.

But now it's good. He was only halfway through his words when almost all the officials started to object.

Of course Fang Xuanling knew that none of these guys in front of him dared to take responsibility.

That's why there is such opposition.

Fang Xuanling looked at Wei Zheng aside.

Wei Zheng nodded, now it's time for him to play.

Everyone, regarding the Qizhou riots and the handling of Qizhou officials, you only need to discuss how to deal with them.

If Your Majesty pursues any further questions, I will bear the responsibility alone.

Your Majesty is so stupid that he forgot to severely punish Qizhou officials. I will never forget that.

Now, let's discuss it. Wei Zheng said to the officials, with a look of decisiveness on his face.

All the officials in Tai Chi Hall looked at Wei Zheng blankly.

Fortunately, the emperor was not here. Otherwise, if he heard Wei Zheng scolding him for being stupid, the emperor would probably have to spit out the overnight meal again.

Xiang Wei, in fact, there was a riot in Qizhou

It is also easy to deal with things.

In the county where the people are rioting, from the county magistrate on down, anyone who fails to perform well will be dismissed from their posts and investigated.

The county magistrate directly executed him to calm the people.

Qizhou Dudufu, Qizhou Dudu, Changshi, and Zhechongfu Duwei failed in their inspections and were either killed or dismissed from their posts. They were handed over to the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple for strict investigation and handling. An official from the Ministry of Punishment said.

The impact of the Qizhou riots is extremely bad, and the people of Qizhou have suffered greatly. The leaders of the thieves should be beheaded as well. ??

Qizhou was originally a state in the Tang Dynasty, but riots occurred inexplicably. It must be local officials oppressing the people. Dali Temple's suggestion is that all offending officials should be executed on the spot. The officials of Dali Temple also spoke.

Dali Temple has always advocated severe punishment for such important cases that concern the people and the country.

All the officials nodded.

With Wei Zheng in front, they naturally dared to express their opinions on the Qizhou riots.

Wei Zheng nodded with satisfaction, and then looked at Sun Wuji, the chief minister of the Ministry of Personnel, who had never spoken.

Changsun Shangshu, what do you think? Wei Zheng looked at Changsun Wuji and asked.

From the bottom of his heart, Wei Zheng felt that Changsun Wuji was very suspicious.

After all, Changsun Wuji had the strength to collude with Qizhou officialdom.

Moreover, Changsun Wuji was implicated in several court battles.

The emperor even drove him back to his hometown in Jinyang.

If Changsun Wuji said that he had no resentment in his heart, Wei Zheng would not believe it.

Today, Wei Zheng and Fang Xuanling mainly wanted to test Changsun Wuji.

Changsun Wuji was stunned for a moment, as if he was still wandering in the sky just now.

Looking at Wei Zheng, it took him a few breaths to come back to his senses and said with a smile: I don't care. Qizhou officials cannot escape the blame for the riot in Qizhou.

What does Wei Xiang think?

It is up to Prime Minister Wei to decide how to deal with them.

Changsun Wuji's indifference surprised Wei Zheng.

He originally thought that Changsun Wuji would deny his previous statement, and even use the emperor to pressure him.

But not...

But let me say something more. His Majesty is in Qizhou at the moment. If we suddenly send word that we will take action against Qizhou officials.

Maybe it will make those people jump over the wall, so let's think about it more. Changsun Wuji suddenly said too much.

Wei Zheng's brows furrowed even more.

He had already given up doubting Changsun Wuji, but what Changsun Wuji said just now made Wei Zheng unavoidably suspicious again.

Wei Zheng looked at Changsun Wuji, who had already retreated to his position.

Wei Zheng didn't know what he was thinking, and there was no expression on his face.

Xiang Wei, to be honest, I also feel that this is not a good time to do this.

Your Majesty is in Qixian County. We have to guard against those people who jump over the wall. If something happens to your Majesty, we ministers will be blamed. Li Xiaogong, the prince of Hejian County, also said.

Yes, His Majesty's safety is more important than anything else.

Xiang Wei, you are not afraid of His Majesty's punishment. Aren't you also worried that something might happen to His Majesty in Qizhou?

Prime Minister Wei, we still have to wait for His Majesty's return to discuss the order to deal with Qizhou officials.

Another sentence of persuasion.

No one would watch something happen to the emperor in Qizhou.

Wei Zheng frowned. With so many people at the moment, he couldn't tell for a moment who really wanted to protect the emperor and who was fishing in troubled waters.

Today’s temptation seems to yield no results at all.

Wei Zheng sighed secretly and looked at Fang Xuanling aside.
