Chapter 689 I have to kill
Everything that follows is naturally strange and strange.
The morning court was not over yet, and everyone returned to the Hall of Supreme Harmony to continue the morning court.
No one else talked, only one-on-one answers from Li Chen and Zhao Xuanji.
Li Chen successfully passed the commendation to Su Pingbei and his subordinates, and there was no hindrance to those who should be promoted and those who should be rewarded.
But Zhao Xuanji did not seem to intend to compromise completely and give in. He expressed clear opposition on several other issues raised by Li Chen.
Li Chen did not persist.
After the whole morning court, Li Chen passed three of the five things proposed, and two of them were mainly related to personnel transfers, and Zhao Xuanji refused.
As it was approaching noon, Li Chen raised the last topic expressionlessly.
"The Prince of Wen Li Junze led people to enter the Palace of Supreme Harmony. Although the Dharma has been rectified on the spot, there must be a shadow of King Wen's instruction behind him."
This sentence made the ministers' mood, which had just calmed down, suddenly became nervous again.
King Wen held heavy troops and had decades of accumulation. He was one of the most powerful vassal kings among the vassal kings.
According to common sense, Li Chen's foundation was unstable at this time, not to mention that the prince had not ascended the throne. He should try his best to avoid head-on conflicts with a powerful vassal king like King Wen.
Normal people think so.
This is also Li Junze’s greatest confidence before.
But Li Chen never seems to play according to other people's routines.
Not only did he force Li Junze to death, he even didn't plan to let King Wen go now.
Isn’t the prince afraid of forcing King Wen to rebel, causing the Li family to fall into war and fall apart?
No matter how the ministers thought, Li Chen's words continued.
"Even if this matter has nothing to do with King Wen, the guilt of unjustly teaching children cannot be escaped. This palace decided to issue a document from the cabinet to reprimand King Wen in the name of the court and to promptly enter the capital. First, to explain this matter to the court in person, and second, to..."
Li Chen's eyes fell on Zhao Xuanji and said calmly: "It can be regarded as collecting the corpse for his son."
No one dared to say anything, and everyone followed the gaze of His Royal Highness to Zhao Xuanji.
Zhao Xuanji's expression was calm and he didn't know what he was thinking.
At this time, Zhao Qinglan spoke: "Crown Prince, the vassal kings have never been allowed to enter the capital without an imperial edict. This is the ancestor..."
"Isn't the imperial edict issued by this palace enough?"
Li Chen said indifferently: "If it is not enough, I will use the power to supervise the country and stamp the national seal. That is what the father means, what does the mother think?"
Zhao Qinglan pursed her lips, not knowing how to answer.
Li Junze was forced to death by Li Chen, there is no doubt about this.
But it was Zhao Xuanji who really took action.
As for the purpose, anyone with a discerning eye can see it.
Zhao Xuanji was afraid that Li Junze would say everything he should say or not in order to survive.
There are many things that are not broken through the window paper, even if everyone in the world knows it, they don’t have to tear their faces if they don’t move it to the counter.
But once it is said in broad daylight, this matter must be solved.
This is why Li Chen interrogated Li Junze in public and asked him to tell him, and a thousand-year-old fox like Zhao Xuanji could not help but kill Li Junze himself.
If Zhao Xuanji's dagger does not penetrate Li Junze's throat, then Li Junze's words will turn into a sharper knife and fall into Li Chen's hand to kill him, Zhao Xuanji.
The two evils are the least of the right, and Zhao Xuanji can only do that.
