Chapter 556 Tailing

"Your Majesty! I wonder what crime the Duke of Qing committed to make Your Majesty so angry?" Di Renjie asked.

He had never seen Li Chengqian so furious in the court.

"Someone sued the Duke of Qing for forcibly annexing land, burning, killing, looting and committing all kinds of evil, and even condoning his subordinates to commit murder."

"He even made friends with people from the underworld. What on earth does he want to do? Just based on these, it is enough to punish his entire clan." Li Chengqian said. "

Your Majesty! I wonder if there is any evidence to prove whether everything said in the complaint is true. The Duke of Qing is a kind person. He would definitely not do such a thing of killing and robbing, let alone condoning his subordinates to commit murder. Please investigate clearly, Your Majesty." A minister stepped out and saluted.

Li Chengqian felt that the minister had a point. One cannot just arbitrarily judge a person's guilt based on a piece of paper.

If that were the case, who knows how many unjust, false and wrong cases would be created.

"Lord Li, you submitted this complaint. Do you have any evidence to prove whether everything said in it is true?" Li Chengqian looked at Li Jingxuan and asked.

"I don't know. The person who came here only came to sue the Duke of Qing. There is nothing else to serve as evidence except the complaint." Li Jingxuan said.

"Your Majesty! Since there is no evidence to prove it, the case of the Duke of Qing needs to be investigated. The Duke of Qing's guilt cannot be judged on this basis." Di Renjie said.

"Lord Di, what you said makes sense. Who should be in charge of this matter? Which minister can go to Binzhou to investigate this matter thoroughly?" Li Chengqian said.

Li Jingxuan and others said nothing, secretly observing Li Xiang's movements in the dark to see if Li Xiang would stand up and perform.

But to their disappointment, Li Xiang remained indifferent, as if he had not heard anything, which was totally different from what they expected.

While they were staring at Li Xiang, Liu Rengui and others were also staring at Li Jingxuan and others. Once they made any moves, they would stand up at the first time.

"Your Majesty! This matter should be handed over to the Dali Temple for trial." Di Renjie said.

He would not care about what was going on here. He just wanted to thoroughly investigate the matter and clean up the bureaucracy for the Tang Dynasty and get rid of the bad apples.

"Your Majesty! Duke Qing is a duke of the Tang Dynasty after all. It would be inappropriate to just let the Dali Temple handle the case. I think a prince should be sent to handle the case." At Li Jingxuan's instruction, a minister stood up and said.

As long as Li Chengqian agreed, he would push Li Xiang out and suggest that Li Chengqian let Li Xiang go to Binzhou.

"Your Majesty! All major cases in the world are handled by the Dali Temple and the Ministry of Justice. There has never been a case where a prince was asked to handle the case. If the Dali Temple cannot handle the case alone, it can be handed over to the three courts for joint trial." The ministers of Liu Rengui's faction stood up and said.

Li Jingxuan was so angry that his teeth itched. At this time, Liu Rengui, this old man, dared to stand up and make trouble with him. If he had not been in the court and had to pay attention to his manners, he would have cursed him long ago.

Li Jingxuan's faction naturally did not want to be outdone, and they launched counterattacks one after another. The two sides started a fierce war of words again.

"How dare you!" Li Chengqian was furious. These guys quarreled regardless of time and place, and they would argue endlessly whenever they had the chance.

The emperor was furious, and no one dared to say anything more.

"This matter will be handed over to Di Renjie to preside over. Order Di Renjie to rush to Binzhou to review the case and adjourn the court!" Li Chengqian said.

"Your Majesty, we respectfully send you off!" The ministers hurriedly saluted and sent Li Chengqian off.

After Li Chengqian left the hall, these people got up and left.

After Li Xiang left Xuanzheng Hall, he went straight back to his residence without staying for a moment.

Donggong.

"Judging from Li Xiang's performance at the morning court today, he should not pose any threat to us. It seems that we were just alarmed for nothing!" Li Jue said with a smile. "

Your Highness! It's too early to say that now. We still need to be careful. As long as Li Xiang stays in Chang'an for one day, anything can happen. We should not take it lightly now." Li Jingxuan said, he was not as optimistic as Li Jue.

"Are you worrying too much, Lord Li? Judging from Li Xiang's performance at the morning court, there is nothing to worry about. The court envoy will naturally return to his place after the court in Chang'an."

"As long as he returns to his fiefdom at that time, isn't that enough? Why is Lord Li so worried?" Zhao Daosheng said with a smile.

They felt that Li Jingxuan was being too cautious. It was unnecessary. Judging from Li Xiang's performance, he would not threaten the position of the crown prince. Judging

from Li Xiang's performance, he might not compete with the crown prince, and he could not compete with the crown prince. Li Xiang had no foundation in Chang'an.

"In short, it's always right to be cautious. Don't wait until a big disaster occurs, then it will be too late to regret it!" Li Jingxuan said.

"Then what do you think we should do now?" Li Jue asked.

"Send someone to keep a close eye on Li Xiang. His every move and what he does every day must be recorded in detail."

"Especially keep a close eye on whether he has any dealings with Liu Rengui's gang. If they unite, it will be disadvantageous to us." Li Jingxuan said.

There is nothing to be afraid of Li Xiang. After all, Li Xiang has no foundation in Chang'an, so there is nothing to worry about. What

Li Jingxuan is worried about is whether Liu Rengui and others will unite with Li Xiang, which is the biggest disadvantage for them.

"Everything, big or small, must be recorded. Does it mean that even what the King of Wei eats, drinks, and even goes to the toilet every day must be recorded? Is this necessary?" asked Gao Zheng, the Prince's chief minister.

He thought that Li Jingxuan was being too cautious and there was no need for this.

"Of course it is necessary. Once there is the slightest mistake, it could be a disaster for us." Li Jingxuan said.

"Okay, let's do as the Grand Tutor said. Zhao Daosheng, I'll leave the matter of monitoring people to you. Don't let me down." Li Jue said.

"Your Highness, don't worry. I will do this properly. There will be absolutely no mistakes. I will personally select the person who will monitor King Wei." Zhao Daosheng said.

"Your Highness, I'm afraid it's not appropriate for you to hand this matter over to this person. I suggest you change someone else." Li Jingxuan said.

It's a joke to hand over such an important matter to a male favorite!

"There's nothing wrong with that. Zhao Daosheng is my confidant. I trust him to do the job. You don't have to worry!" Li Jue said.

"Yes! Lord Li, don't worry. I will definitely not let your Highness down." Zhao Daosheng said.

"But your Highness..." Li Jingxuan said hurriedly.

"Okay, it's settled! I'm tired, all of you leave." Li Jingxuan was interrupted by Li Jue before he finished speaking, and Li Jue ordered them to leave. Li

Jingxuan and his men had no choice but to bow and leave. After Li Jingxuan returned, he arranged for someone else to keep an eye on Li Xiang, Liu Rengui and others, as he was worried about the people Li Jue had sent.
