Chapter 668 Zheng Rentai
Chapter 668 Zheng Rentai
Wanchun Hall.
Li Shimin temporarily suppressed his conjectures, and asked in a cold voice with a sullen face: "Zheng Aiqing!
Your wife is not at home looking after her husband and raising her children, but she came here to make trouble in Wanchun Palace.
Even disregarding the prestige of my Li Tang royal family, I secretly provoke the relationship between Concubine Yang and the crown prince.
Come and tell me, who gave her such courage, could it be you Zheng Aiqing? ! "
Zheng Rentai shook his head with a wry smile when he heard the words, and sighed full of sorrow: "Your Majesty!
No matter how stupid the general is, he will never do such a stupid thing.
This fact is made by Mrs. Mo, and has nothing to do with Mo! "
"Oh~
Nothing to do with you? ! "
Li Shimin laughed when he heard the words, looked at Zheng Rentai and said jokingly: "Cui's actions are indeed not like your Zheng Rentai's methods!
When you followed me to raise troops in Jinyang, you were already enough to be alone.
Afterwards, whether you followed me to conquer Liu Wuzhou, or followed Li Jiancheng to conquer Dou Jiande, you have made countless military exploits and killed countless enemies.
When I am ambushed by Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji at Xuanwu Gate, you will lead the army to protect me and fight to the death.
but……
Could it be that you think that you have made great contributions to my Tang Dynasty, that you can unscrupulously provoke my majesty, provoke the relationship between the prince and Concubine Yang, and disturb the harem so that I can't be at peace?
Zheng Rentai, you are so courageous! ! ! "
Li Shimin said, his eyes full of jokes turned into anger.
Zheng Rentai was filled with grief when he heard this, he hesitated and didn't know how to respond.
He and Li Shimin met before starting the army, and they were like brothers.
When he was named the king of Qin by the Jin Dynasty to conquer the world, he was relied on by Li Shimin as his confidant and beloved general.
If we only talk about the relationship between the two, why doesn't he want to be a loyal and loyal minister and general.
It's a pity that he was born in the Zheng family of Xingyang, and he has received all kinds of favors from the main family since he was a child.
In this era of close relatives and concealment, the ending between him and Li Shimin can be imagined.
Li Shimin also understood Zheng Rentai's difficulties, looked at his tangled expression, shook his head and said: "Zheng Rentai, for the sake of your friendship with me in the past, I only ask you a question today.
You really don't know about your wife Cui's just entering the palace to provoke you? "
"I don't know!!!"
Zheng Rentai raised his head suddenly, and said extremely firmly: "Your Majesty!
Although the last general has selfish intentions these years, he never intends to betray His Majesty.
The general dares to swear to the sky that what happened today really has nothing to do with the general, and the general did not know about it beforehand!
If the last general has half a sentence of falsehood, then the last general will die badly, and the sky will be struck with thunder! ! ! "
"it is good!
I believe you! "
Li Shimin nodded decisively, but his face was still ashen.
"With your Zheng Rentai's means, you will never do such trivial tricks.
If your wife was really instructed by you, she wouldn't sow discord in front of others just now.
But whether you know it or not, you can't get rid of the relationship with what happened today.
Even if I forgive you for your crimes now, Wei Zheng and others will definitely be impeached tomorrow.
In this case, let me tell you, how should I deal with you? "
Zheng Rentai's face became paler when he heard the words, he lowered his head and sighed, and replied: "The general is guilty, and he is willing to accept His Majesty's punishment.
However, the general has always been loyal to His Majesty, and I ask His Majesty to put the past friendship in consideration and not to punish the general in the name of rebellion and disrespect to the royal family.
Such a heinous crime, the general will really not be able to bear it! "
"Oh~
What a shrewd son of a family! "
As soon as Zheng Rentai said that, Li Jing couldn't help but sneered.
Then facing Li Shimin's angry gaze, he cupped his hands and said, "Father, this person is really insidious and cunning, you must never trust him.
What he said at this moment was just to win sympathy, and wanted to let you, father, be punished lightly.
Hai'er guarantees that he has absolutely no remorse in his heart at this time, and he must be full of resentment towards Hai'er and you.
If you let him go easily at this point, the story of the farmer and the snake will definitely be staged in the future.
Once he finds an opportunity, he will definitely not show any kindness to my royal family! "
"The loyal heart of the general can be learned from the world, how can His Highness slander the general!!!"
What Li Jing said made Zheng Rentai tremble and sweat profusely.
If it was before today, he might be able to refute loudly with confidence.
After all, although he had a confrontation with the royal family for the benefit of the family, he never wanted to betray Li Shimin, let alone put Li Shimin to death.
But now that his daughter is married to Wu Wang Li Ke, Li Shimin has become an imperceptible obstacle for him to obtain the greatest benefit.
If there is a chance to get rid of Li Shimin and help Li Ke take over, he will definitely not hesitate a bit.
It is necessary to know that the saying that people do not kill heaven and earth for themselves is the most reasonable saying engraved in the hearts of the children of the aristocratic family.
As long as the interest relationship between him and Li Ke exists for a day, the relationship between him and Li Shimin will never return to the beginning.
Once faced with a life-and-death decision, he would definitely abandon His Majesty Li Er without hesitation.
Li Shimin obviously couldn't accept this kind of commander of the palace guards.
"The Cui family is rebellious, trying to stir up internal strife in the Tian family, causing the prince and concubine Yang to have a bad relationship, and causing Princess Honghua to suffer a lot..."
Li Shimin talked eloquently with his hands behind his back, and Zheng Rentai and his wife were already cold.
Based on his understanding of Li Shimin, once His Majesty Li Er made up his mind to dispose of the Cui family regardless of his relationship with him, his future ending would not be too good.
Although the world said that Li Shimin treats heroes with generosity and kindness, he knows that Li Shimin's true nature is the same as Li Jing's.
If His Majesty Li Er was really angered and ordered him to settle the old accounts, not only he and the Cui family were doomed to lose their lives, but also his son and the Zheng family in the capital would also be wiped out within half a year.
After all, he personally participated in the change of Xuanwumen, what Li Shimin did that day was not as benevolent as the folk rumors said.
Thinking of everything that happened that day is enough to make him feel cold all over at this moment.
If he can't come up with a countermeasure as soon as possible, Zheng Rentai is in danger today!
The Zheng family in the capital is in danger!
The Zheng family in Xingyang is in danger!
And he will surely become an excuse for Li Shimin and his son to crusade against the Zheng family in Xingyang, and he will be hated by his fellow clansmen for generations to come!
Thinking of this, Zheng Rentai suddenly put his hands on the ground, ignoring the astonished eyes of the people present, kowtowed repeatedly with tears in his eyes.
"His Majesty!
The general will be loyal to His Majesty, and will never show any disrespect.
Also please Your Majesty, for the sake of the last general's hard work for many years, spare the last general's life! ! ! "
"Hehe~"
Looking at Zheng Rentai who kowtowed heavily in front of him, and his head was bleeding after three or two strokes, Li Shimin squinted his eyes and sneered without saying a word.
The two have known each other for many years, how could he not know Zheng Rentai's arrogant temperament.
Now he is begging for mercy on his knees regardless of etiquette and face, and he will feel unwilling when he recovers in the future.
At that time, what he will face will no longer be the royal guards, but a poisonous snake that may choose someone to bite at any time.
Li Shimin also understands the story of the farmer and the snake that Li Jing just said.
"Husband, why do you have to do this!!!"
But without waiting for Li Shimin to speak, the Cui family beside Zheng Rentai mustered up the courage to persuade him: "My husband is a dignified man, and he is also a descendant of the Zheng family in Xingyang.
Even if the concubine made a big mistake today, it has nothing to do with her husband.
The husband only needs to write a letter of divorce, and the concubine will have nothing to do with him in the future.
All the crimes are borne by the concubine alone, and the husband will never be implicated! "
Zheng Rentai was startled when he heard the words, his eyes turned red immediately.
Others couldn't bear to see it, and Su's mother even turned her head to avoid softening her heart.
Only Li Jing chuckled disdainfully, he didn't believe that a selfish family member would think of others when a disaster was imminent.
Unless, today's sun rises from the west.
Maybe there will be a good show to watch later.
