Chapter 263 Impeachment Again
"His Royal Highness King Wei, this way please!" The prison chief said flatteringly.
Li Tai nodded and said, "You hand over all the people inside, and you are not allowed to come in without my king's order."
"Yes, yes, yes!" The cell boss nodded repeatedly, and called out all the jailers inside.
Li Tai nodded in satisfaction and walked in.
"Vote, this is?" a jailer asked curiously.
The prison chief glared at him, and scolded: "Don't ask if you shouldn't ask, keep your mouths tight, and keep today's matter in your stomach."
"Yes, head, don't worry, we haven't encountered this kind of thing before, and we certainly won't talk nonsense." The jailers said quickly.
Chang'an is at the foot of the emperor, and there are many high-ranking officials and nobles. This is not the first time they have seen such a thing.
The unpleasant smell in the prison made Li Tai frowned.
According to the location told to him by the cell boss, Li Tai came outside Hou Junji's cell.
When Hou Junji heard footsteps, he thought it was Hou De who was coming, and when he looked up, he was slightly taken aback.
"Mr. Lu, how are you doing?" Li Tai smiled.
Hou Junji came back to his senses, and hastily cupped his hands in a salute: "I have seen His Royal Highness King Wei!"
Li Tai waved his hand and said, "Duke Lu is so polite."
Hou Junji didn't know Li Tai's reason for coming for a while, so he exchanged pleasantries with Li Tai, trying to find out Li Tai's reason for coming.
Li Tai chatted with Hou Junji for a few words, and said: "Duke Lu has made a great contribution this time, although there are some small mistakes, the flaws are not concealed."
Hou Junji didn't change his face, and said lightly: "What do you mean by your highness?"
Li Tai smiled lightly and said, "Tai is willing to intercede for Duke Lu."
"What's your Highness's purpose?" Hou Junji didn't feel any surprise because Li Tai wanted to intercede for him.
If Li Tai really wanted to intercede for him, he could go directly to Li Shimin.
There must be some purpose in coming to him.
Li Tai said indifferently: "Tai doesn't mean anything, he just thinks that Lu Guogong has made great contributions to my Great Tang, so he shouldn't end up like this."
"Then thank you, Your Highness." Hou Junji said with a smile.
Since Li Tai didn't say the purpose, he just wanted to show his favor to him.
Although he has already figured it out, this time the incident must be safe and secure.
But this matter still has a great impact on him, if someone intercedes for him, he can also expose this matter as soon as possible.
Li Tai smiled and said, "Mr. Lu can just wait for the good news from Tai."
He didn't expect Hou Junji to rely on him based on this matter.
As long as Hou Junji writes down this favor, it will be fine.
……
Cheng Chumo seemed to have thought of something, put down his wine glass and said, "Zichu, we took two boxes of treasures, should it be all right?"
Lin Xuan shook his head and said, "It's nothing to worry about, it's a common practice in the military. If there's something to do with it, one general who goes on an expedition counts as one, and none of them can escape."
Soldiers on the expedition can share [-]% of the seizures, and those they took belong to the normal category.Moreover, they also distributed according to what the soldiers deserved, and did not embezzle it privately, so there is nothing wrong with it.
After Cheng Chumo listened, he breathed a sigh of relief.Not to mention that they didn't make any meritorious service when they set off well, if they were implicated by Hou Junji, then they would be wronged.
Yuchi Baolin sighed, and said: "King Gaochang must have more than one woman, and some beautiful maids. But what they brought back were all crooked melons and dates, and they probably ruined everything else."
Lin Xuan rolled his eyes, are you lamenting that those women have been ruined, or are you lamenting that you have not been spoiled.
"You said that the impeachment of Mr. Wei is all true?" Li Deju said in surprise when he heard Yuchi Baolin's words.
He was a little skeptical at first, but now hearing what Lin Xuan and the others said, it seemed that it was all true.
Faced with Li Deju's question, Cheng Chumo and the others didn't know what to say.
Although they were not in the city, they all knew about Hou Junji's army looting.
In addition, on the way back to the army, they heard a little bit, but they didn't have evidence, so they didn't dare to speak nonsense at this time.
Seeing that they were silent, Li Dejiang had already guessed some, so he smiled and did not continue to ask.
Lin Xuan shook his head, Cheng Chumo and the others, although they were not ashamed of Hou Junji for insulting Princess Gaochang, they didn't respond much to his looting.
If Hou Junji was not Princess Gaochang, but some maidservants, perhaps even Wei Zheng would not use this to impeach Hou Junji.
Judging from the fact that Wei Zheng did not continue to impeach Hou Junji to plunder like before, we know that he doesn't care.
Cao Cao slaughtered Xuzhou, a two-legged sheep in the time of Wuhu Chaohua. Throughout history, there are countless such things.
Not to mention that it happened in other countries, except for those civil servants who would talk about the state of etiquette, others didn't care.
"We can talk about these things in private, don't talk nonsense outside. Rengui, remember to explain it when you return to the camp tomorrow, and no one is allowed to talk about it." Lin Xuan confessed.
"Yes!" Xue Rengui replied.
"Zichu, do you mean that Lu Guogong will be fine?" Qin Huaidao asked.
Lin Xuan smiled and asked back: "Uncle Qin didn't talk about this with you?"
Qin Huaidao shook his head and said, "I asked my father, but he didn't say anything."
Qin Qiong must be able to understand, he is unwilling to say, maybe he has some scruples.
"Hou Junji ranks among the princes of the state, and now he has the merit of destroying the country. His Majesty is also a nostalgic person. He will be fine." Lin Xuan said.
You know, Hou Junji's status before the Xuanwumen Incident was far worse than that of Cheng Yaojin and the others.
However, after the change of Xuanwumen, he became the Duke of the state in a flash. From this, it can be seen that Hou Junji contributed a lot to the change of Xuanwumen.
In addition, Li Shimin came to him today and asked him to testify for Hou Junji, so he knew the status of Hou Junji in Li Shimin's heart.
A few people exchanged cups and cups, chatting without so many worries, it can be said to be very happy.
When it was over, except for Lin Xuan and Xue Rengui, everyone else was already drunk.
Lin Xuan is very satisfied with Xue Rengui's control, and he is worthy of being a famous general through the ages.
Calling their entourage to send them back, Lin Xuan shook his head and went back to sleep.
……
"Your Majesty, according to my investigation, Hou Junji's corruption of ink is indeed true!" Li Daozong said with a bow.
Li Daozong's words caused an uproar.But when they saw Li Shimin's gloomy expression, they immediately stopped talking.
Li Shimin didn't show any surprise, and asked, "What about other things?"
Li Daozong shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, there is no evidence for Hou Junji's murder of King Gaochang and the insult of Princess Gaochang, and the investigation must continue."
Li Shimin nodded, and said: "Then continue the investigation. As for Tanmo's treasure, you personally lead someone to search."
"Yes!" Li Daozong responded and retreated.
"Your Majesty, I want to impeach the Marquis of Jingyang County." Wang Ze came out and said.
Lin Xuan looked at Wang Ze suspiciously, not knowing what he was going to do.
"Speak!" Li Shimin glanced at Lin Xuan and said lightly.
Wang Ze said: "Your Majesty, since Lu Guogong's corruption of ink is a fact, it is impossible for the other generals who went to the expedition to be ignorant. However, after the army returned to the city, no one wanted His Majesty to expose the matter. From this, it can be seen that these people should participate As a vanguard general, the Marquis of Jingyang County may not be able to escape the responsibility."
Qibi Heli and Xue Wanjun looked at Wang Ze with hatred, wishing to eat him.
They have been terrified for the past few days, but they finally breathed a sigh of relief when they saw no one talking about them. They didn't expect Wang Ze to say it now.
Although Wang Ze impeached Lin Xuan, the status of the two of them in the army was higher than that of Lin Xuan. Lin Xuan couldn't escape the responsibility, so what about them?
