Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

Page 1715

Guo Ye said: "Mr. Guo accepts the wishes of all the adults! However, I, Guo Ye, still believe in my own judgment. There is absolutely no problem with the prescription! I am willing to try the medicine myself!"

After finishing speaking, he knelt down on both knees and said: "Your Majesty, for the sake of my little achievements in the past, please allow me to test the medicine!"

His Majesty Li Er frowned, and said: "Guo Aiqing, no one is a sage. Even if there is something wrong with the prescription, I believe that you made a mistake unintentionally, and I will not do anything to you. Why are you so anxious to prove yourself? ?”

Sun Fujia said: "Your Majesty's words are wrong! The prince violated the law and committed the same crime as the people, let alone Qin Guogong? If Qin Guogong's prescription is really wrong, he should be punished according to the law!"

It's easy to refute his words. There are eight arguments in ancient criminal law.Discuss relatives, discuss talents, discuss capabilities, discuss old friends, discuss achievements, discuss nobles, discuss talents, and discuss guests.Any one of these eight conditions can be reduced.

Guo Ye is the Duke of Qin, so he can discuss his nobles.He has also made a lot of contributions to Datang, which can be discussed!She also married Princess Cheshire as his wife, so talking about marriage can be justified.If His Majesty Li Er was a little more shameless, discussing the past, discussing the virtuous, discussing the ability, discussing the meritorious service, and discussing the guests, these five items could also be climbed up by force.

In that case, let's not talk about such a trivial matter, Guo Ye, even if he really intends to rebel, he will have to be acquitted in the end!

However, His Majesty Li Er is after all a wise king through the ages, so he really couldn't bear this embarrassment.

He said: "Even if Qin Guogong is guilty, he is not guilty of death. He drank the medicine prescribed in that prescription, but his life is in danger. I am the Holy Son of Heaven, how can I kill people without punishment?"

"Your Majesty's words are wrong..."

His Majesty Li Er casually threw an inkstone over and said, "I'm so short of you! Do you want to say that I said something wrong again?"

Seeing His Majesty Li Er's real anger, Sun Fujia was also a little scared, but for the sake of the mountain, how could it fall short?Now that he has softened, wouldn't he offend so many important officials of the imperial court in vain?

Sun Fujia gritted his teeth, and said, "Your Majesty, as long as the Duke of Qin is willing to plead guilty, how will he be punished? Grace will come from above, and I dare not comment. But Duke Qin has always refused to plead guilty and has no heart of repentance. Your Majesty Let it go so lightly, I am afraid that the hearts of loyal ministers and righteous men in the world will be chilled! It will also hurt His Majesty's name!"

His Majesty Li Er nodded slightly after hearing this, and said: "As long as Qin Guogong is willing to admit that it was an unintentional mistake, you will not care about the future?"

"Uh...you can say the same."

"That's good!" His Majesty Li Er said to Guo Ye again: "Qin Guogong, you just admit it. This matter is outrageous, but it was a bad thing with good intentions. Fortunately, it didn't cause anything serious..."

Speaking of this, His Majesty Li Er couldn't continue.The Duke of Wei, Li Jing, is physically disabled. Isn't the consequence serious?He changed the subject and said: "Uh... All in all, the imperial court will treat you well!"

Guo Ye straightened his neck and said, "Your Majesty, what are you talking about? Could it be that you have recognized that there is something wrong with my prescription? I didn't expect that I, Guo Ye, made so many contributions to your birth and death. During this period, I ran around for you to find a prescription for understanding the medicine. Now, you actually suspect that there is something wrong with my prescription? It really chills a loyal minister like me!"

His Majesty Li Er had good intentions at first, but Guo Ye not only didn't appreciate it, but pushed himself back, and he couldn't help but said, "The facts are all there, how dare you deny it? If you insist on doing it yourself, I will, I will." ..." In the end, he was still reluctant to part with this confidant and beloved general, so he didn't say the following words.

Yu Chigong also persuaded: "Brother, what do you care about being soft? It's really not worth it to ruin your own life for some trivial matter! Listen to the old brother's words and admit your mistake to His Majesty. It's over!"

Kong Yingda coughed and said, "Mr. Qin, right is right and wrong is wrong. If you keep being so stubborn, I won't be able to help you anymore! Please ask for blessings!"

……

……

The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty all wanted to persuade him, but no one stood on Guo Ye's side!

Sun Fujia thought to himself, this is really a response to that sentence, take a step back!A little concession by myself puts Guo Ye in a situation where he is surrounded by enemies!We are worthy of being the number one scholar, with strategy and scheming!

He added another fire to Guo Ye, saying: "Mr. Qin, it is obvious which is right and which is wrong. This time, you are really wrong! If there is no me, Sun Fujia, you may still Get away with it. But now, hey, sorry!"

Guo Ye sneered and said, "Master Sun, you are too confident! Let me ask you, if I am fine after drinking the medicine, how would you explain it?"

Chapter 1548 Jumped, buried!

This thing needs no explanation at all!

Guo Ye is fine after drinking the medicine, which can only mean that the antidote is not poisonous.But so what?What's the matter with Sun Fujia?

But after a lot of verbal battles with Confucianism, and Guo Ye's overthrow, Sun Fujia's confidence burst, and he completely regarded this matter as a personal grievance between himself and Guo Ye.And I am on the side that is sure to win!

He smiled slightly and said, "Duke Qin, don't scare me. I am the number one scholar in Wude for five years. I have taken Your Majesty's salary for so many years, so I should repay you. If the facts prove your innocence, I, Sun Fu Jia is willing to bear the crime of false accusation!"

Guo Yexin said, if you are willing to bear the crime of false accusation, it has nothing to do with you being the number one scholar?This is illogical!

He didn't know that the most proud thing in Sun Fujia's life was winning the number one prize.If you don't find an opportunity to talk about this matter, you will feel uncomfortable all over your body!

At this moment, the little eunuch came again and said, "Your Majesty, Duke of Wei, Li Jing, begs to see you!"

His Majesty Li Er's heart moved, it really is better to come early than coincidentally.Why is he here at this juncture?Could it be that Sun Fujia's intransigence was instigated by Li Jing?If that's the case, it will be difficult to handle!After all, Li Jing is the master of suffering!

Li Jing's going to the hall was different from others, he was sitting on a chair and was carried up by someone!

He nodded slightly at His Majesty Li Er, and said: "My minister is seriously ill, I can't give full respect to Your Majesty, and I hope Your Majesty will forgive me!"

His Majesty Li Er was shocked when he saw his appearance, and said, "Li Aiqing, your illness is getting worse!"

"Who says it's not? Your Majesty, I could barely support my left leg a few days ago, but now I can't control it at all! Unexpectedly, at my age, I will be lingering on the sick bed and unable to serve the country. Every time I think of this , this humble minister would rather die!"

"Li Aiqing please rest assured, I have already sent someone to call for the old genius doctor Sun Simiao. When he comes, maybe Aiqing's body can be restored!"

After a few perfunctory words, His Majesty Li Er asked again: "Li Aiqing, you are so seriously ill, why don't you take good care of your body at home. What are you talking about going to the palace at this time?"

Li Jing said: "My minister is here today, and I have two matters to ask His Majesty to decide!"

"Duke Wei, please speak!"

"The first thing is to ask Your Majesty to allow me to return to my hometown. I am afraid that I will not be able to do it with my body. Now I want to go back to my hometown to enjoy two days of happiness, and I hope Your Majesty will allow it!"

His Majesty Li Er was noncommittal and said, "What about the second thing?"

"The second thing is to ask Your Majesty to make the decision and severely punish Duke Guo Ye of the State of Qin for this humble minister! The current state of my humble minister is all thanks to him! If you don't deal with him, I will not die with peace in my eyes!"

Guo Ye laughed dryly and said, "Duke Wei, are you really unable to use your legs?"

"I, Li Jing, am so old, can I still joke with you like this?" Li Jing said angrily.

Guo Ye said: "Even if your left leg is really disabled, it is not necessarily my fault, right? Wei Guogong, don't wrong a good man. If it weren't for my Guo Ye's prescription, you are still unconscious now, let alone My legs are gone, and I can't move my whole body."

"Hmph, even if I can wake up, it's thanks to your prescription. But my leg is disabled, what do you say? If you can cure my leg, I, Li Jing, will kowtow to you and admit my mistake. If it can't be cured ...Don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Guo Ye sighed and said, "Duke Wei, this is why you are being unreasonable. Have you thought of another possibility?"

"What is possible?"

"Perhaps your leg was not caused by my prescription at all, but by the elixir of immortality. My prescription just revived you. Your leg disability has nothing to do with me, Guo Ye! "

Li Jingdao: "Mr. Qin, you are really good at talking. I was moved by your persuasion. However, what you say is useless. Do you dare to play something with real evidence..."

Guo Ye asked suspiciously: "Really based on evidence? What do you mean?"

As soon as Li Jing stretched out his hand, the commander beside him handed him a clay pot.Li Jing opened the earthen pot and said, "Mr. Qin, I've already made up my mind on the way here. No matter how false your lies this time, you have to drink this soup! If you're fine after drinking it, even if the old man has wronged a good person, If you drink it and become crippled, or even die, hey, it’s your own fault!”

"Medicine? What kind of medicine is this?"

"Mr. Qin, why bother to ask? This is the medicine made according to your prescription! Since you are so confident in your prescription, let me drink it!"

His Majesty Li Er hurriedly said: "No! Absolutely not! Qin Guogong, don't be arrogant!"
