Chapter 172 Li Shimin's Difficulty

After Shao Qiusheng falsely accused Li You, there was a voice of doubt about Li You in the court. There was no way, Li You's previous image was really not very good.

But... Li Shimin and several people in the court who knew Li You's talent had already shown bad eyes.

"Nonsense..."

At this time, Quan Wanji, the Minister of Personnel, walked out of his position and cursed, then slowly walked to Shao Qiusheng and asked sternly: "Say...who instructed you to frame His Highness King Qi?"

"This official... I, Shao Qiusheng, dares to swear to heaven, every word is true. If there is half a lie, it will kill the heaven and earth, and no one will instruct the students, and the students only need justice.

The King of Qi ignored the king's laws and oppressed students, so he asked His Majesty and all his friends to make the decision for the students."

"What a punishment for heaven and earth...!" Quan Wanji shook his head slightly and said, "This scholar, you will pay the price for what you just said...!" After saying that, Quan Wanji bowed to Li Shimin and said, "Your Majesty... This time the matter is actually easy to solve. As long as King Xuanqi comes to the palace, I can guarantee that the truth will be revealed without a cup of tea...!"

"Oh... Quan Aiqing has a way to prove that King Qi is not guilty?" Li Shimin asked.

"There is...!" Quan Wanji was very confident.

The confident Quan Wanji made Shao Qiusheng frown slightly. He didn't know why the official was so confident. Could there be any mistakes on his side? But the plagiarism was just a matter between the two. As long as he bit it tightly, there should be no mistakes.

Even if Quan Wanji brought in with his three other scholars at that time and proved that he had not written "Han Ju", as long as he insisted that all his friends were threatened by Li You to make perjury, he could take advantage of the situation. So why is Quan Wanji so confident?

But thinking at this time is meaningless.

Soon, Li Shimin issued an order: "Summon Li You into the palace..."

After issuing the order, Li Shimin announced a rest for a while, and then got out of the hall. The officials all came to the corridor outside the hall. Shao Qiusheng also followed him out, and Ma Zhou called Shao Qiusheng to his side.

"Master Ma..." Shao Qiusheng looked at Ma Zhou with a grievance.

Ma Zhou looked at Shao Qiusheng and asked, "Shao Qiusheng, tell me the truth, did you write that song "Han Ju"?"

"Master Ma, you have to believe me. I did write the song "Han Ju". After it was written, it happened to be seen by the King of Qi, so he found an excuse to bring it to the tent and gave me a hundred coins, asking me to give him "Han Ju". Although I was reluctant to leave, I dared not disobey the King of Qi.

I had to present the "Han Ju" with both hands."

"But it's wrong. I've read the poems you wrote. You must know that the poems you wrote before were not as good as "Cold Chrysanthemum" at all...!" Ma Zhou's eyes shone slightly.

"This...this..." Shao Qiusheng was a little panicked, but soon calmed down: "That's because I tried hard to change the previous writing style. This song "Han Ju" was exhausted and he accidentally wrote it...!"

Following Shao Qiusheng, he looked at Ma Zhou and said, "Master Ma, this King of Qi is ignorant, which is something that the whole of Chang'an knows. How could he have such a good literary talent to write such a poem?

By the way, I didn't understand why His Highness King Jin invited us to their tent that day. It turned out that all this was the trick of the King of Qi, and he just wanted to copy our poems."

"This...!" Ma Zhou was also confused. Although Ma Zhou heard that Li You's literary talent had improved, Ma Zhou had never seen it before. Therefore, Ma Zhou's impression of Li You was still ignorant, so he was a little shaken about Shao Qiusheng's words. Could it be that Li You was really plagiarized?

Seeing Ma Zhou being confused, Shao Qiusheng finally felt relieved. Even if Li You comes later, as long as he can make up the lies, which is more reasonable than Li You, then there will be people who believe in him. As long as there are people who believe in him enough, he should be able to pass this level.

As long as you pass this level, no matter who "Han Ju" belongs, Shao Qiusheng believes that he will be famous, and for a moment, Shao Qiusheng feels that he may have bet right.

................

"Well...!" Li Shimin took a sip of tea, then leaned on the chair and asked, "What do you think of the scholar saying that Li You copied."

"That's a false accusation..." Li Zhi was the first to jump out and shouted: "We all know that Brother Wu's poems are "Praise for the Farmers". My father praised him for a long time. My fifth brother has such a poem and will plagiarize his poems.

Father, I can be sure that this song "Han Ju" was definitely written by my fifth brother, because I am by my side. My fifth brother read out "Han Ju" and I held the pen... If my son has a lie, my son is willing to punish heaven and earth."

"Haha..." Li Zhi's words made Li Shimin smile faintly.

Then he looked at Prince Li Chengqian and King Li Tai of Wei.

At this time, Li Tai said first: "With Zhinu's promise, of course I believe in my fifth brother, and my fifth brother is really different from before. He is now abiding by the rules. This time, the scholar must have wanted to become famous, so he falsely accused his fifth brother."

"Father, my son is thinking so too..." Crown Prince Li Chengqian didn't say much, just said one sentence.

However, Li Shimin felt very pleased. It was rare that his three sons agreed this time, which really made Li Shimin happier than anything else. Haha... Li Shimin was the same as Li Yuan, who had been in the ninth year of Wude.

At that time, the more painful Li Yuan was, the more painful Li Shimin was at this time.

From the fifth year of Wude to the ninth year of Wude, the battle between the prince and the King of Qin reached a tense point. Emperor Gaozu of Tang, Li Yuan, was in great pain by the fight between the three sons. Li Yuan thought of many ways to calm the struggle between the prince, the King of Qi and the King of Qin, but the results were minimal.

Li Yuan wanted to depose Li Jiancheng and let Li Shimin be the crown prince. Li Yuan's idea was to let Li Jiancheng go to Sichuan to be the king of Shu. Li Yuan thought about it and felt that this method would not work. Once Li Jiancheng was deposed and Li Shimin became emperor, Li Jiancheng would become the second Yang Yong.

Li Yuan wanted Li Jiancheng to inherit the throne in Chang'an and let Li Shimin become a vassal king in Luoyang. The minister reminded Li Yuan that if Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin share the world equally, a war would break out in the future. Li Yuan thought about it again and again and cancelled this idea. Li Yuan thought of many ways, but there was no way to save his three sons.

Li Shimin is also... So at this time, as long as Li Shimin saw that the prince Li Chengqian and King Wei Li Tai were consistent in words and deeds, he would feel happy for no reason. This also shows that Li Shimin has too much love for his legitimate son.

"Very good...you and I think the same way. So today, the four of us father and son will work together to clear our grievances for our fifth brother and fifth brother. I want to see who gave this scholar so courage to deceive the emperor...!"
