In the Tang Dynasty, Li Yuan beat Li Shimin at the beginning

Chapter 130 Who Is Impeaching Who?

As soon as Wang Gui said this, the scene immediately fell silent.

Yes, Li Ke was too strong when acting as His Majesty. Many officials were dissatisfied with him and had long wanted to find an opportunity to impeach him.

It's just that Li Ke didn't make any mistakes during this time, and everyone didn't find an opportunity.

Now, finally have a chance.

Of course, Wang Gui's reason cannot kill Li Ke.But it's good to disgust him and punish him.

To put it bluntly, it is just a sentence, many people want to see Li Ke have bad luck.

Li Shimin, who was above the high position, was taken aback for a moment, and asked, "What's going on?"

Wang Gui quickly said: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the King of Shu received foreign officials, but he did not go out of the city to greet them, which caused the foreign envoys to be quite dissatisfied. After the incident spreads, it will affect the reputation of our heavenly kingdom. Please make a decision, Your Majesty."

Li Shimin frowned, looked at Li Ke below and asked, "Ke'er, is there such a thing?"

Li Ke said: "Father, this is indeed the case. But father, who stipulated that the reception of foreign envoys must go out of the city to greet them?"

What Li Ke meant was who made such a fucking rule.Others didn't hear it.

Wang Gui immediately said: "Your Majesty, you heard me. His Highness the King of Shu has already admitted that he did not go out of the city to meet the foreign envoy as required. This will definitely affect the reputation of our Tang Dynasty. Please punish him."

Li Ke said: "Lord Wang, don't be in a hurry to talk about the punishment. As the Minister of Rites, let me ask you, who made this rule? Why do we have to go out of the city to welcome foreign envoys?"

Wang Gui said: "Going out of the city to welcome foreign envoys is a rule that has existed since ancient times. This can better reflect the magnanimity of our celestial dynasty. Therefore, we have kept it. Is there anything wrong with this?"

Li Ke was speechless: "Master Wang, so you made this rule?"

Wang Gui said very dissatisfied: "His Royal Highness, please don't mess around here and avoid my questions."

Li Ke turned cold and said, "Who is messing around with you? Let me ask you again seriously, who made the rule to go out of the city to meet foreign envoys? Is it you, Wang Gui?"

Wang Gui was taken aback for a moment, and finally found out where the problem was.

Said: "His Royal Highness, what do you mean? Are you dissatisfied with this regulation?"

Li Ke said: "Of course, why can't I see that this regulation can reflect my Datang's bearing? On the contrary, it looks like licking a dog.

If it is our ally country, the two sides are very friendly, and it is of course no problem to go out of the city to greet them.

But what is our relationship with Tubo now?It looks like they are about to fight.You still let me go out of town to meet them?
Wang Gui, what do you mean?Are you asking me, Datang, to kneel and lick them?This rule does not reflect the magnanimity of our celestial kingdom, but the weakness of your king.

As a minister of the Ministry of Rites, is there anyone who can do diplomacy like you?Do you know that as the Minister of Foreign Affairs, your every move represents our Tang Dynasty.

You are a foreign minister, but you want to beg for mercy from our hostile country. I think you are incompetent as a minister of the Ministry of Rites.

Father, please remove Wang Gui's position as Minister of Rites and let such a person do diplomacy. Our Tang Dynasty can't afford to lose this person. "

gah...

Wang Gui was dumbfounded.

The ministers were also dumbfounded.

Isn't Wang Gui impeaching Li Ke?How do you keep talking, even losing your position?

Prince Li Chengqian came out and said: "Father, my son also thinks that what the third brother said makes sense."

Li Ke said: "Father, please cancel the rule of going out of the city to meet foreign envoys. In the future, when you go out of the city to meet foreign envoys, you have to see who the other party is? Is it worthy of our courtesy.

I really don't agree with Mr. Wang Gui's way of begging for mercy from our hostile country.Let the emperor decide. "

Wang Gui quickly said: "Your Majesty, His Highness the King of Shu is really exaggerating. If we do as His Highness the King of Shu said, the work of our Ministry of Rites will be very difficult in the future.

Once we fail to grasp this degree, it will bring disaster to our Datang.Your Majesty please decide. "

Wang Gui's thinking is very simple, he treats all foreign historians equally, treats them with high standards, and satisfies them, so there will be no problem.

The work of their etiquette department is quite easy to do, at least it is not easy to go wrong, and it is not easy to make mistakes.

Li Ke said: "That's why I say you are incompetent as a Minister of Rites. As a foreign minister, you must learn to talk to people and talk nonsense when you meet people. You don't even have this ability. What kind of Minister of Rites are you?"

In fact, it's not that Wang Gui doesn't have this ability, but that he doesn't want to do it. It's too tiring and exhausting.

At this moment, Wang Gui found himself speechless.

No, didn't he stand up to impeach Li Ke?How did it become like this?
Wang Gui hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Prince of Shu is messing around and deliberately diverting the topic. His Royal Highness the King of Shu did not go out of the city to meet the foreign envoys as required, and ruined the reputation of our Tang Dynasty. Please punish him."

Li Ke immediately became angry: "Wang Gui, you dare to mention this matter? You want to be a dog yourself, so you can just wag your tail and beg for mercy from Tubo.

Who am I, I am the most noble prince in history, you want me to be a dog for the Tibetans?Father, are you willing? "

Wang Gui had been talking standing up, and when he heard this, he was so frightened that his knees softened and he knelt down.

"Your Majesty, I don't mean that. The rules are the rules. His Royal Highness the King of Shu didn't follow the rules. Please make a decision."

This time he dared not ask His Majesty to punish him.

Li Shimin took a deep breath and said: "Okay, I also think what Ke'er said makes sense, as a foreign minister, he should play by ear and not blindly please.

Therefore, I feel that the King of Shu did the right thing and should not be punished.Well, let's leave it at that! "

As soon as Li Shimin made a final decision, he wanted to confuse the matter.

Li Ke didn't want to do it, and said: "Wait a minute, father, I feel that Xiang Wanggui is such a weak person that he is not suitable to be the minister of the Ministry of Rites.

The most important thing is that he did something wrong. Not only did he not find problems with himself, but he even went to court to impeach his own people.

The son felt that such a person was not only weak, but also had problems with his character. Not only was he unsuitable to be a minister of the Ministry of Rites, he was even unsuitable to be an official.

Please revoke his position and let him go home to retire! "

gah...

Wang Gui almost lost his breath and held back his breath.

He said very speechlessly: "His Royal Highness, we just disagree on political views. In fact, there is no hatred. There is no need to do this, right?"

Li Ke said solemnly: "Do you think I am avenging my personal revenge? No, no, no, as long as you have a bit of backbone, as long as you do your best, I will not impeach you like this.

But what are you doing?In order to make things easier, I blindly cater to them.Not only are you weak, but you are also lazy and afraid of taking responsibility.Do you think you are still fit to be an official? "
