Chapter 274: Long Yan is angry
Di Renjie's answer is to do his best.
I dare not speak full.
Because people's hearts are separated by their belly, all officials can't be human hands and feet, and they can be swung like arms.
This is also Di Renjie's helplessness. After he quit, he certainly released the news, but no one who should come could stop him.
The furious censor finally took action, and it was Lai Junchen who wrote the letter.
Lai Junchen's "anger" makes a lot of sense.
After Zhou Xing, Lai Junchen, as the leader of the cruel officials, encountered a great crisis. When the emperor appointed Li Xian as the crown prince, this meant that the palace had already begun to compromise with the royal family of Li. The reason why the cruel officials such as Lai Junchen were rampant was simply because His Majesty ascended the throne and had unstable footholds. In addition, the foundation of rule was not solid, and there were endless voices of anti-military action. Among them, the most intense resistance was naturally the Li family.
Now that these Li clans have stopped, Lai Junchen has naturally been marginalized. In fact, as the Censor, he has only had the daily time to catch lice and play with it.
What is even more terrifying is not just that for Lai Junchen. As a cruel official, he really has too many blood debts in his hands. I don’t know how many royal families were slandered by him and finally killed by him. In the future, once Li Xian ascended the throne, he was afraid that the first person to be killed would be Lai Junchen.
Lai Junchen has been in a dilemma. He is not a family of five surnames and seven families, and does not have a huge family business to protect him. He is not Di Renjie. On the contrary, he not only has no reputation, but is not famous. It is definitely not Qin Shaoyou. Although Qin Shaoyou also has some grudges with the Li family, this grudge is limited to Li Longji. Now that Li Longji is dead, at most, some royal families are disgusted with him. But after all, they are the son-in-law of the Turkic Khan and His Majesty today, and the brother-in-law of the Crown Prince. With this status, coupled with his own strength, they can protect themselves.
Lai Junchen is different. If he lets go, the day when Wu Zetian dies will be cut into pieces.
Now he must take risks. For example, this time, Li Dan's entry into the capital made Lai Junchen feel that the opportunity has come.
Li Dan not only entered the capital, but also lived in Changle Palace. The current crown prince is just staying in Longxing Palace. Changle Palace is the residence of the emperor. It is obvious that Your Majesty's Menglang behavior is quite unfavorable to Li Xian. Of course, this may be just Your Majesty's happy behavior for a moment, but it is obvious that the position of the crown prince was challenged. Lai Junchen did this just to use this to make Li Xian good.
So he wrote a letter overnight and sent it to the palace early the next morning.
The memorial was quite accurate. He did not accuse Wu Zetian of breaking the rules, but said very tactfully that Your Majesty was very happy to see His Highness the Prime Minister. This was a gratifying thing, but... when he arrived here, he began to criticize Li Dan. He said that Your Majesty was a kind mother, and he was happy to see his son and let Li Dan enter Changle Palace with good intentions, but Li Dan, as a vassal king, did not refuse, but instead moved in calmly. It is important to know that there is a difference between the monarch and the ministers, even the prince was only staying in Longmen. Li Dan was the younger brother of the prince and was just the prince, but he was so calm. He borrowed His Majesty's kindness and had something to do with his intentions?
The memorial was handed over in fear.
When the memorial was handed over, everyone was involved.

The Huangmen Pegasus arrived at Zhuangzi in Mengjin and conveyed His Majesty's oral order.
Qin Shaoyou was quite surprised by the arrival of the eunuch. He asked the yellow gate to the central hall and immediately said, "What is your majesty's order? Please inform me."
The yellow gate looked cold and said, "Your Majesty has said that all the ministers of the three provinces and the heads of the various departments will join the generals and captains of Qin to enter the palace to meet immediately."
Entering the palace...
Qin Shaoyou frowned. Li Dan entered the palace yesterday. Why did he enter the palace by himself in a blink of an eye?
He didn't dare to be negligent, so he rode a fast horse and rushed to Xuanwu Gate. Outside Xuanwu Gate, he happened to see Wu Sansi coming into the palace.
When Wu Sansi saw Qin Shaoyou, he hurriedly said hello. Qin Shaoyou stepped forward and saluted, "I have met His Highness King Liang."
Wu Sansi was a little more depressed than before. He was originally handsome, but the changes over the past year have been greatly improved. Now his body is already hunched over. However, when he saw Qin Shaoyou, he still barely cheered up and said, "Captain Qin doesn't need to be polite."
The two simply walked into the palace together, and Qin Shaoyou couldn't help but ask: "But I don't know why Your Majesty urgently summoned all the ministers?"
Wu Sansi seemed not very interested in this, and he just sighed: "Does this king know that who can predict the thoughts in the palace?"
Qin Shaoyou couldn't help but smile bitterly. He saw Wu Sansi being depressed and knew his current situation. Over the years, there have been no days when many families were happy or sad. Accompanying the king is like a tiger. Your Majesty's wish can make people happy and anxious. The days of the Wu family's proud days have passed, and it is time to worry about their own future.
Qin Shaoyou wanted to comfort him, but found that there was nowhere to go, so he simply stopped talking and just walked through the corridor and corridor silently.
When we arrived at Xuanzheng Hall, the atmosphere inside seemed very bad and was quite strange. The eunuch went in to report, and after a while, he invited Wu Sansi and Qin Shaoyou to go in. After Qin Shaoyou entered the hall, he looked around and saw that many people had arrived, including Cui Xu, Di Renjie, Yang Zaisi, Zheng Rongren, etc., as well as the ministers of various departments, and several generals.
What surprised Qin Shaoyou even more was that when he stood in the upper position, Prince Li Xian stood with a gloomy face, and on the other side, he didn't recognize this person, but his appearance looked very similar to Li Xian. Qin Shaoyou knew in his heart that this person should be the prime minister Li Dan.
Li Dan's expression was also worried, and he looked so arrogant that he didn't dare to show off. Because at this time, Wu Zetian was entrenched high behind the imperial case, with an angry look on his face.
Young Master Qin marched and then stood in one position.
It seems that the arrival of Wu Sansi and Qin Shaoyou interrupted Wu Zetian's words. After pondering for a long time, Wu Zetian said coldly: "Can you practice the relationship between mother and son like this? Li Dan is also my son. He is my son. When he moved into the palace, why are there so many gossips? I am still alive and I am not dead yet. If I really die one day, I don't know how much you people will bully my son!"
The hall was so angry that Li Xian was so scared that he was sweating coldly, and his back collar was already wet.
Wu Zetian said sternly: "Crown Prince, come out and say."
Li Xian hurriedly came out and said, "Mother...Mother's Queen...Son Minister is dead!"
Wu Zetian said with a grudge: "What are you guilty? Is it your fault? What I want you to say is, can your emperor brother not be able to live in the palace, can he be punished and humiliated like this?"
Li Xian said: "No, no, the prime minister is the brother of his son minister..."
Wu Zetian sneered and said, "Yes, mother, son and brother can provoke this way. It can be seen that some people have a bad mind. Lai Junchen is so presumptuous. Who do he think he is?" Seeing that everyone was silent, Wu Zetian increased his voice again and said, "Who do he think he is?"
Qin Shaoyou, who was standing in the class, realized that what His Majesty was angry with was Lai Junchen's memorial. Obviously, this time, Lai Junchen's flattery hit the horse's legs, and His Majesty was angry this time.
There was no need to be so angry about a small memorial, but His Majesty called the most core figures in the world and gathered here to express their position. What this means can't help but make people think deeply.
Obviously... Your Majesty attaches great importance to Prime Minister Li Dan, and this kind of attention has now turned into a huge anger.
There was still no sound in the hall. Everyone just listened to Wu Zetian's reprimand, and no one spoke.
Wu Zetian seemed to have not yet regained her anger. She raised her eyes suddenly and said word by word: "Lai Junchen is bold and nonsense, talking nonsense, and discussing the palace. This is a crime of death. I remember that he has worked hard on weekdays, so I have spared him from his death penalty, but he must be exiled to three thousand miles away and must not step into Luoyang for the rest of my life."
A cruel official who was once highly trusted by Wu Zetian actually collapsed like this.
Everyone was shocked because although Wu Zetian lost her previous trust in Lai Junchen, this person was once one of Wu Zetian's most important minions. Wu Zetian treated him very heavily and never treated him unfairly, but in just a few years, he was finished.
Many people couldn't help but have a cold war.
But behind this Cold War, there seems to be a new meaning.
Lai Junchen's complete destruction was just because he said something wrong, and this sentence might not have hurt Prime Minister Li Dan. Now, Your Majesty's favor for Prime Minister Li Xian is an important reason for Lai Junchen's real defeat. This shows how important Li Dan was at this time.
