Impeachment will make me stronger, and I will be invincible on the road to death.

Chapter 338 In Taiyi City

"Will Di Aiqing be willing to ride in this carriage with me to Taiyi City to meet Li Jingye, Zhang Liang, Fang Xuanling and other officials?" Yang Yanzhang looked at Di Renjie and asked lightly.

"It's a great honor for me." Di Renjie said respectfully.

The carriage pulled by two horses soon drove into Taiyi City. Then, in the surprised eyes of Li Jingye, Zhang Liang, and Fang Xuanling, Di Renjie was actually sitting in the carriage, following Yang Yanzhang and slowly walked in. The mansion where the three of them are located.

After Yang Yanzhang and Di Renjie entered the mansion together, they went straight to Li Jingye's residence.

"Your Majesty, what are you doing?" Seeing Yang Yanzhang and Di Renjie getting off the carriage at the door of his residence, Li Jingye hurriedly came out to greet them.

"Won't you invite me for a cup of tea?" Yang Yanzhang looked at Li Jingye, who looked anxious, and said lightly.

"Your Majesty, wait a moment. I will ask the kitchen to prepare the food and wine." Li Jingye did not dare to neglect and hurriedly ordered the servants around him.

"Stop being busy, I'm just here to discuss Di Renjie's matter with you." Yang Yanzhang motioned to Li Jingye to be calm, and then walked towards the hall.

"Your Majesty, what mistake did Di Renjie make?" Li Jingye followed Yang Yanzhang and asked in a deep voice.

Di Renjie had just returned from the palace, and he had just left last night. Logically speaking, Di Renjie had no chance of offending His Majesty, let alone angering His Majesty. Could it be that Di Renjie had done something to make His Majesty angry?

But no matter what, Di Renjie was promoted by himself, and he was highly respected and trusted by His Majesty in the court. He absolutely did not believe that Your Majesty would punish Di Renjie for no reason.

"What do you think of Di Renjie?" Yang Yanzhang stood with his hands behind his hands, sat down on the stone bench in the hall, and asked Li Jingye who was ordering people to boil water and make tea.

"Di Renjie is extremely intelligent, broad-minded, and cares about the people. He is a rare talent." Li Jingye glanced at Di Renjie, and then continued.

"Well, it seems that you are quite satisfied with him. The so-called intelligence and broad-mindedness are all said to outsiders, but for us in the Tang Dynasty, Di Renjie is the kind of person who is cunning and good at maneuvering.

It is not an exaggeration to even call him an old fox, but you actually say that he has a broad mind? If this word gets out, I'm afraid it will make all the officials laugh. Yang Yanzhang said lightly.

"In your Majesty's opinion, what should Di Renjie do on the southeast front now?" Li Jingye glanced at Di Renjie, then looked at Yang Yanzhang again, and asked respectfully with his hands raised.

"I gave him the opportunity to do what he wanted to do, but it's a pity that he didn't cherish it. Now that he has been summoned to the capital by me, I have to think carefully about whether such a minister is suitable. It’s still not suitable to stay.”

After Yang Yanzhang finished speaking, he fell into a brief silence.

Di Renjie stood quietly, silent, as if he had already expected that Yang Yanzhang would never let him go.

Yang Yanzhang suddenly turned to look at Di Renjie: "If I hand him over to the Ministry of Punishment, do you have anything to say?"

Di Renjie took a deep breath, then looked at Yang Yanzhang and said, "Wei Chen is willing to die to apologize."

"Oh? Then tell me, how do you apologize?" Yang Yanzhang looked at Di Renjie with interest, then paced back and forth in the courtyard with his hands behind his back.

"Wei Chen is willing to resign and return home." Di Renjie lowered his head and said in a deep voice.

"Resign and return home?" A cold smile appeared at the corner of Yang Yanzhang's mouth, he stopped, looked at Di Renjie and said, "Are you sure?"    "Yes, Wei Chen is willing to resign, and it will not involve anyone. All he wants is Your Majesty pardons Di Renjie's family and lets them be safe and sound." Di Renjie looked at Yang Yanzhang and firmly expressed his determination.

"What about Di Renjie's wives? I can allow them to marry into noble houses, but they cannot marry him. As for your wives, I will give them to your son or son-in-law."

Yang Yanzhang stared at Di Renjie, trying to see clearly whether Di Renjie was perfunctory with him.

"Thank you, Brother Huang." Di Renjie bowed and said.

Yang Yanzhang looked at Di Renjie's calm expression. It didn't look like he was trying to deal with himself. Instead, he looked like he was really planning to give up everything, just to keep his family safe and to have enough food and clothing.

"Have you made up your mind?"

"Your Majesty, yes, I have thought about it." Di Renjie raised his head and said firmly again.

"Are you really not afraid that I will depose Di Renjie or behead him?" Yang Yanzhang raised his eyebrows and then asked.

"Not afraid." Di Renjie still shook his head and said.

"Haha, interesting, really interesting, I really underestimated you." Yang Yanzhang laughed twice, and then said: "Now that you have decided, tell me, how should I deal with Di Renjie?

You should know that if you choose this way, your whole family will suffer. Do you want your family to pay for your life? "

"Your Majesty, there is no need to say more. If your Majesty were to deal with Di Renjie, Di Renjie would never resent anyone.

The reason why Di Renjie made this choice was because he did not want to harm his parents, grandmother, and children because of himself. I hope your majesty will forgive me. "After Di Renjie bowed and finished speaking, he stopped talking and stood there quietly, waiting for Yang Yanzhang's reply.

"You mean, you don't care about your family and children? Are you so cruel that you abandon your wife and children and evade responsibility alone?" Yang Yanzhang looked at Di Renjie, then turned around and leaned back on the chair asked.

"Mr. Di is ashamed of His Majesty's kindness and his love for the people of the world. Mr. Di is really not worthy of governing the country for Your Majesty. Mr. Di only hopes that Your Majesty will not vent your anger on Di Mou's wife, children and parents." Di Renjie bowed again. said.

"Haha, what you said is quite new. I didn't expect that Di Renjie would have such filial piety. I really didn't expect that you would be so filial." Yang Yanzhang looked at Di Renjie and smiled.

"Your Majesty, this humble minister is really not worth your troubles, let alone your attention. Your Majesty, please be more careful." Di Renjie bowed and said, but his tone still had a hint of stubbornness.

Yang Yanzhang looked at the pain and struggle on Di Renjie's face, and then sighed: "I don't want to kill you, let alone exile you three thousand miles away.

But I need Di Renjie to go to the northeastern front line in person to find your family and others, instead of me sending troops to help you find them, do you understand? "

"Yes, I understand." Di Renjie saluted again.

"It's best that you understand. Don't worry, as long as your family and tribe are within my control, I will definitely protect their safety and take good care of them.
