I am a judge in the Tang Dynasty - #126 - Chapter 126

Outside Tai Chi Palace.

All civil and military officials are waiting here.

Lin Xiu also came to court today.

I just returned to Chang’an yesterday and rested for the night.

There were no special cases, and some small cases were taken over by the Jingzhao Mansion Yamen.

And in the early hours of this morning.

Sun Guangxiao came specially to find Lin Xiu and said that the time for questioning and killing had been decided.

Just at Xu time tonight.

Sure enough, it was exactly the same as what the Jinghe Dragon King in Li Shimin’s dream said.

Standing next to Lao Niu and Lao Cheng.

Laugh and chat with them.

There weren’t too many topics, it was just asking about what weird cases had been handled in the recent period.

Lin Xiu didn’t hide it, and listed a few interesting ones.

For example, tell them briefly about the case in Jinghe Town and the marriage of the City God.

After hearing”587″, Lao Cheng and the others were all surprised.

I never thought that there would be so many things in this world.

How could they know this if Lin Xiu wasn’t there?

But when I heard that Meng Chan committed suicide and cursed the people of Jinghe Town.

Lao Cheng and Lao Niu all clapped their hands and applauded her, thinking that this loyal woman was cheerful and lovable.

What else could he say, if he hadn’t already gone to the underworld to be punished?

As long as she was still alive, she would definitely be a matchmaker for Cheng Chumo.

Only a strong woman like Meng Chan can defeat that kid…

Lin Xiu smiled bitterly, feeling a little helpless for Cheng Chumo. It was unlucky to have such a father.

Speaking of Cheng Chumo, Lin Xiu seemed to have not seen him for some time.

I remember that when we first moved to the Judge’s Palace, Cheng Chumo volunteered to go there to study and help.

At that time, Lao Cheng was extremely pleased.

He believed that if Cheng Chumo could stay by Lin Xiu’s side, he would definitely become something useful in the future.

As a result, the guy spent two days fishing and three days drying the nets, but no one could be found.

This time is even better. Since I said I wanted to go home half a month ago, I have never come back.

After asking, I found out.

Cheng Chumo, who was co-author, went to hang out with Changsun Chong, Li Huairen and others.

He ate and drank all day long, causing trouble everywhere, and caused a lot of trouble for Lao Cheng…

Li Huairen and Chang Sun rushed to them, although Lin Xiu had never seen them before.

You may have heard of their names in past and future generations.

They were all playboys. Changsun Chong was the son of Changsun Wuji, and Li Huairen was the son of Hejian King Li Xiaogong.

Both his identity and background are very tough. He can be regarded as the second-generation official in Chang’an City, and the future hereditary successor…

At this moment, Wang Dajian came out of the palace and pulled him The chicken-like voice shouted.

Immediately, the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, lined up on the left and right, walked towards the Tai Chi Palace in an orderly manner.

After entering and standing still, Li Shimin walked out from the side.

Going to court is a very boring thing, just like having a morning meeting at work.

However, unlike the morning meeting, the nature of the morning meeting is more serious and formal.

Three provinces and six ministries report the latest news from each department as usual.

After that came the civil servants such as Changsun Wuji, Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng.

Reporting on some other things.

Lin Xiu, as the yin and yang general judge, is equivalent to the highest criminal department chief in the Tang Dynasty.

Not to mention that local yamen and government offices should be based on it.

Even the Ministry of Punishment, Dali Temple and other judicial departments are under Lin Xiu.

After the rest of the criminal departments reported the matter.

Lin Xiu also wanted to come forward and report on the recent work progress, especially this time going to Jinghe Town.

Not only did he solve a case, but he also put an end to a three-year drought.

The rest has nothing to do with Lin Xiu.

Li Shimin was going to provide disaster relief or distribute grain.

None of this has anything to do with Lin Xiu.

After that, it was the border of the Tang Dynasty, the remaining foreigners.

Japan and Goguryeo in the east are relatively stable.

Recently, I haven’t seen any signs of wanting to attack Datang, and I just want to please them.

Tubo and Tuyuhun in the west are also silent.

Lin Xiu knew that the current Tubo could not care about the Tang Dynasty.

That Songtsen Gampo was seizing the time to seize the territory of the rest of Tubo.

How could he have the energy to distract himself from trouble with Datang?

Now for Datang, the most troublesome thing is the Turkic barbarians in the north.

There is the latest information, sent from the border.

The old thief Jieli Khan has already sent a large army towards Yumen Pass.

The number of soldiers has reached nearly 300,000.

It seems that the Eastern Turks and the Western Turks are united.

Including the Qiang people, they also joined forces with them and came straight to the Tang Dynasty.

As soon as the news came out, the court immediately exploded.

Both the civil and military sides expressed their opinions.

What is more cruel is that those generals are led by Cheng Yaojin and Niu Jinda.

They all clamored for Li Shimin to issue an order to fight against them.

On the civilian side, most of them requested that envoys be sent to negotiate with the Turks as much as possible.

The current Tang Dynasty is in troubled times.

Domestic conditions were volatile and the treasury was shrinking.

There is not that much food, material and money to support such a war of attrition.

The Turks can afford to fight, but the Tang Dynasty cannot yet.

As the saying goes, war is about fighting for money, and it is not just about whether the soldiers are brave or not.

Even more so, how much financial resources both sides have.

The Turks come from the desert with great force. They can support war with war.

But Datang couldn’t do that.

As a result, as soon as these words were spoken.

None of the generals were happy.

What is peace talk? My majestic dynasty actually wants to make peace with some barbarians?

If this spreads out, won’t it make people laugh in the future?

Today the Turks are here to scare us, tomorrow the Tibetans are here to roar, and the day after tomorrow Japan and Goguryeo are also trying to fish in troubled waters and make some money.

Is the Tang Dynasty still alive?

The two sides continued to fight for 3.7, and Li Shimin did not stop it.

He smiled and let them continue arguing.

However, Lin Xiu discovered that Li Shimin would glance in his direction from time to time.

There’s something wrong with his eyes. Li Shimin seems to have a deep meaning today, doesn’t he?

Lin Xiu was calm on the surface, but he was thinking about the relationship in his heart.

When they have all had enough noise and are tired of it.

Li Shimin then shook his stiff neck and asked:”What, no more noise? Have you had enough noise? Well, I am also a little tired, so let’s retreat first!”

After saying this, everyone felt a little strange. They all walked out.

Lin Xiu was no exception and followed Lao Cheng and the others outside the palace.

As a result, when he just arrived at the entrance of the hall, he was stopped by Li Shimin.

Lin Xiu secretly chuckled in his heart. Sure enough, something happened to Li Shimin…_
