Chapter 888
"Daddy Cheap is so awesome. He won't do anything until he makes a move. His gestures are like thunder!" Tang Yu exclaimed.
When he went to Tianlao to torture Chu Yunteng, Ye Yuanba and others, he took the initiative to invite Emperor Tang to watch a play in Tianlao.
Emperor Tang knew everything about what happened at that time. Tang Yu thought that Emperor Tang would take action against Qin Mang afterwards, but unexpectedly, Emperor Tang had kept this matter until now.
Now that old things are being brought up again, even if Qin Mang is very articulate, he may not be able to argue in the face of absolute evidence.
Emperor Tang was not angry and said with authority: "Qin Mang, I ask you, do you want to recruit or not?"
As everyone knows, the reason why Emperor Tang didn't take action before was because Qin Mang had great power at that time.
In the battle on the front line, Datang suffered heavy losses and could not withstand any hardships in the short term. If Qin Mang was moved and Qin Mang rebelled, not to mention the internal crisis of Datang, the external crisis of Datang would have to make the Tang emperor cautious.
If there is an internal rebellion in Qin Mang, and Chu seizes the opportunity to attack the territory with a large army, the great mountains and rivers of the Tang Dynasty may fall completely.
Now that he has taken back Qin Mang's military power and the border situation is quite stable, it will be easy to deal with Qin Mang at this moment.
It seems that Emperor Tang is forbearing, but in fact this is the true art of the emperor. Its brilliance lies in minimizing internal losses while taking the overall situation into consideration.

"Your Majesty, I don't want to recruit old ministers!"
Qin Mang was heartbroken and prepared to walk all the way to the dark side.
"No move?" Emperor Tang frowned.
Qin Mang argued: "Your Majesty, at that time Ye Yuanba was captured and became a prisoner of the Tang Dynasty. As the commander-in-chief of the three armies of the Tang Dynasty, Ye Yuanba must have hated me deeply. According to my opinion, Ye Yuanba did it on purpose. I want to take revenge on my old minister, and I want to drag him into trouble, so your majesty should be aware of it!"
"Mingcha? Huh! Qin Mang, are you still insisting?"
Seeing that Qin Mang was old and cunning, Emperor Tang directly launched his killing move. He looked at Tang Long and said, "Qin Mang, aren't you doing everything just to support Tang Long in his rise to power? Don't think that I don't know about the dirty things Tang Long has done secretly over the years. , in this case, I will investigate thoroughly, and once Tang Long is involved, I will not only depose him as a prince, but also demote him to a commoner!"
"Father!"
As soon as these words came out, Tang Long was stunned.
He didn't expect that after Tang Huang failed to target Qin Mang, he actually started targeting himself.
Being stared at by Emperor Tang, Tang Long felt guilty to the extreme. He had secretly done many shady things over the years, and just one of them would be enough to make him fall from the altar.
"Your Majesty, everything I do has nothing to do with the eldest prince. Your Majesty, if you have the ability, come for me!" Qin Mang became anxious upon hearing this.
He had put so much effort into Tang Long. If Tang Long was deposed, wouldn't everything he had done before be in vain?
It had to be said that Tang Long was his weakness. Even if he fell into an abyss, he would still protect Tang Long.
Emperor Tang saw that Qin Mang was anxious, and he sneered: "Qin Mang, do you want me to investigate or not? Do you want to recruit or not?"
"Remove all guilty ministers, all guilty ministers!"
Being held hostage by Emperor Tang, Qin Mang was filled with grief and anger: "Your Majesty, all these evidences of guilt are correct. They were all committed by the guilty minister alone and have nothing to do with the eldest prince. If Your Majesty wants to attack him, just attack the guilty minister!"
"Father-in-law!" Tang Long looked moved.
Obviously, he did not expect that Qin Mang would take all the blame on himself in order to protect him.
Tang Huang narrowed his eyes and said meaningfully: "Qin Mang, you have to think clearly. You need to be responsible for what you say!"
"Your Majesty, all the bad things were done by the guilty officials. I did it, I did it all!" Qin Mang was aggrieved to the extreme.
"This this..."
All the civil and military officials were stunned. They did not expect that Emperor Tang would be so tough on Qin Mang.
"Recruited? Okay! Very good!"
