bastard seizes tang

Chapter 130 Counterattack
Admonish and advise the doctor, and control the regulations to advise and sarcasm.Where there is a failure in the government, whether the ministers to the hundred officials are not their own people, and there are violations and mistakes in the three provinces to the hundred officials, they all have to be corrected.

Since ancient times, all admonishing officials have rarely been convicted by words, and the same was true in the Li and Tang Dynasties, but this does not mean that admonishing officials can speak nonsense and have no taboos.

Li Ke, the king of Tang, Tang and Chu, and the governor of Yangzhou, although he was young, was not something that his courtiers could criticize casually, let alone on such occasions and in such a way.

At the state banquet, he actually impeached the prince of the Tang Dynasty for having an affair with the Turks, and indulged the important criminals. Regardless of success or failure, Li Shimin's face is not good.

"Bastard, nonsense!" This time, before Li Ke could open his mouth, some people in the hall could not sit still. When Yan Xiangshi's words fell, the newly promoted Zou Guogong and Zhang Gongjin, the governor of Xiangzhou, stood up and shouted.

In my royal family of the Tang Dynasty, there was only Li Ke who died in battle, and there was no prince who surrendered. Now the Turks are taking this king as a hostage. The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty don’t have to worry about the safety of the king. ,

Under the city of Heng'an, Zhang Gongjin still remembers Li Kezhi's life and death and extravagant deeds. Those generous words are something that a collaborator can say.

In Zhang Gongjin's view, Yan Xiangshi's impeachment of Li Ke for collaborating with the enemy is really ridiculous.

He, Zhang Gongjin, is not blind, nor is the tens of thousands of Dingxiang troops, so what Yan Xiangshi said is any different from saying that a deer is a horse?
All the ministers who had a good impression of Li Ke in the hall also stood up one after another, pointing to Yan Xiangshi and said: "When my Tang Dynasty was in danger, it was His Royal Highness the King of Chu who stepped forward, but now you are so slandering the King of Chu!" , It is actually harboring evil intentions, and the crime deserves death."

At this time, not only those ministers, but even Li Shimin couldn't sit still. Aizi had been troubled in Turkic for four years. How could Li Shimin not be angry when someone slandered him just after returning to the court?
Li Shimin said: "Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, although I have not been convicted by words, it does not mean that you can talk nonsense. Today, if you can't produce evidence, I will never forgive you."

Faced with Li Shimin's shout, Yan Xiangshi's heart trembled, he had no idea how sure he was about what happened today.But the matter has come to this point, Yan Xiangshi has no way out.

Yan Xiangshi bit his head and said: "Jieli has a daughter, Ashinayun, who is also the daughter of Ashina. She was already captured by our Tang army, but His Highness took the initiative to take Ashinayun away, isn't it? Collaborating with the enemy and condoning the enemy?"

Li Ke thought about the reasons for his impeachment by Yan Xiangshi, but he didn't expect that it was a matter of privately arranging Ashinayun.

Ashinayun is different from Jieli and Princess Yicheng, she is just a young girl with no power and no evil deeds, let alone the culprit, it is reasonable for Li Ke not to take him.

But emotion returns to emotion, law returns to law, and what is reasonable may not necessarily be legal.

No matter how you say it, Ashinayun is the daughter of Khan, and Li Ke is indeed inappropriate because of human affection.

Li Shimin said to Yan Xiangshi: "You say that the king of Chu secretly manipulated Jieli's daughter and colluded with the Turks. Is there any evidence?"

Above the main hall, Yan Xiangshi will not fabricate out of thin air, his words naturally have his basis, Yan Xiangshi took out a piece of paper from his bosom, held it up with both hands, and said to Li Shimin: "This is the testimony of the witness, please also please Your Majesty Holy view."

There were tens of thousands of troops in the Northern Expedition, and there were not a few people who knew that Li Ke had privately manipulated Ashinayun. There is no impenetrable wall in the world, so it is not surprising that this news leaked out to Li Ke.

But what Li Ke found weird was not the news, but why he was able to get the confession of the soldiers when he was looking at the face.

There are countless dignitaries in Chang'an City, and Yan Xiangshi is really not a person in it. He is even a civil servant with no foundation in the army. Why did he know about this and get a confession?
Li Ke looked at Yan Xiangshi's appearance, and faintly smelled a hint of conspiracy. It turned out that today's state banquet was actually a Hongmen banquet they hosted for Li Ke.

The close attendant took the confession from Yan Xiangshi and handed it to Li Shimin. Li Shimin only glanced at it and knew that the confession must be true.

This matter is very easy to verify, no matter how stupid Yan Xiangshi is, he would not tell such an easily exposed lie to slander the current prince. How is this different from asking for death?
Li Shimin held up the confession in his hand and asked Li Ke: "Ke'er, is this true?"

As soon as this matter was investigated, it was found that it would be useless for Li Ke to deny it categorically, so Li Ke never thought about denying it. Li Ke replied calmly: "The confession is true, the Turkic princess Ashinayun was let go of."

When Yan Xiangshi heard Li Ke confessed, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Li Ke confessed to the confession, he would not be far from pleading guilty.

Li Shimin asked, "Why did you do this?"

This is not a big deal, Li Shimin said, looking at Li Ke with his eyes, hoping that Aiko could give him a satisfactory answer.

Li Ke replied: "The war between the two countries has nothing to do with her, so my minister indulged him."

After Li Kezhi's words fell, Yan Xiangshi retorted: "It has nothing to do with her? But the news I got is that His Highness has long had a relationship with the Turkic princess, so he ignored the law of the country."

Li Ke listened to Yan Xiangshi's words, smiled disdainfully, and asked, "Dr. Yan is so lucky. You are a civil servant, and you know the Turkic affairs so clearly."

Yan Xiangshi is just an admonishing doctor of the fifth rank, he has no eyeliner in Turkic, why he is so clear about Turkic affairs, Li Ke said this, nothing more than hoping to tell Li Shimin that behind Yan Xiangshi must be someone Others instigated, and Li Ke knew who the instigator was.

Apart from the old fox Changsun Wuji, who else would go to such lengths to make things difficult for him?

But at this moment, Yan Xiangshi didn't have time to think about it, he got Li Ke's words, and immediately said to Li Shimin: "Your Majesty, the king of Chu has pleaded guilty."

Hearing this, Li Ke immediately swung his sleeves and shouted, "What crime do I plead guilty to?"

Yan Xiangshi replied: "Naturally, it is the crime of indulging the Turkic princess for personal reasons."

Li Ke looked impatiently at Yan Xiang, and Li Ke already had a guess in his heart.

The mere private indulgence of Ashinayun will not kill Li Ke, and Changsun Wuji will not be unclear. Presumably, the crime of privately conspiring with a Turkic princess is just an introduction. So Li Ke must not admit it.

So Li Ke replied immediately: "Ashi Nayun has made no mistakes in our Tang Dynasty. He is a person who has made merit. What can I do?"

When Yan Xiangshi heard Li Ke's words, he was stunned for a moment. How could this Ashenayun become a meritorious minister?

Yan Xiangshi thought that Li Ke would sophistry about the private indulgence of Ashinayun, but he didn't expect Li Ke to agree to the matter. Instead, he said that Ashinayun had merit, and Li Ke's private indulgence was innocent.

Li Ke, who was arguing with His Royal Highness Li Shimin, knew that Li Ke dared to say that for his own reasons, so he asked, "Oh? What achievements does this Turkic princess have in our Tang Dynasty?"

Li Kedao: "I want to tell my father, although Ashinayun is a Turkic princess, but she has a heart for the Tang Dynasty. She has saved the lives of her son and minister several times, and even helped her son to eradicate Jieli's confidant. A great help, for my Tang Dynasty, it is a hero."
