393. Impeachment (II)

"In the future, if it is really necessary for war, you can appropriately break through the boundaries of the etiquette system, after all, war is a major national event!" Li Shimin said.

Li Shimin's remark is to give a legitimate reason for the future to appropriately break through the etiquette system because of the needs of the war. Because it would be absurd to force officers to maintain the teachings of the Confucian saints during the battle without violating them in the slightest. And if the war is lost in order to observe the etiquette, there may be a danger of losing the country. As an emperor, he naturally does not want his country to die because of war. Compared with their own country, the etiquette system has become something that can be broken through. Therefore, it is also forgivable to break through the etiquette system on a small scale because of the victory in the war. As long as you don't touch a few strict boundaries, that's generally fine.

However, since the emperor said so, it is untenable for Fang Yuan to impeach Jingwen by means of etiquette.

"Your Majesty, the minister also wants to impeach Jingwen and attack allies without authorization, which has a great impact on the prestige of my Tang Dynasty. If such people are not punished, there will certainly be many others to follow suit in the future. Fang Yuan said.

"Oh? Jingwen attacking allies? How come I don't know? Li Shimin asked.

"Your Majesty, Xue Yantuo is an ally of my Tang Dynasty, and together with them we destroyed the Turks. But Jingwen destroyed Xue Yantuo for his own military exploits, which is unforgivable. Please ask the emperor for permission to summon Xue Yantuo's True Pearl Khan Yinan to come and confront Jingwen. Fang Yuan said.

Hearing Xue Yantuo's Yinan Khan, Li Shimin's face became very strange. Because Liu Renliang had already reported to the pigeon, why did Jingwen want to destroy Xue Yantuo, Li Shimin also acquiesced. But now this Fang Yuan actually doesn't open any pot and which pot to mention, this is simply slapping the emperor in the face!

"Please!"

And at this time, Xue Yantuo Khan Yinan, who was dressed in prison clothes, came up.

"Khan, if you have any grievances, just say it!" Fang Yuan said.

And the Yi man looked at Fang Yuan. Obviously, knowing this is the backer.

"Your Majesty, Ben Khan has been wronged! Your Jingwen actually destroyed our Xue Yantuo without authorization and killed my son Dadushe, who is actually the number one rebel. Please behead Jingwen and return what I Xue Yantuo should have. Yi Nan looked at Jing Wen fiercely and said.

"Oh? What should I return to you? Li Shimin asked.

Yi Nan immediately said: "Your Majesty, you promised me to give me the Hetao, I just want the Hetao to be the habitat of our Xue Yantuo people!" ”

And Fang Yuan immediately added, saying, "Your Majesty." Yi Nan's request is not too much, he just asks me Datang to fulfill the covenant. However, Jingwen actually destroyed Xue Yantuo, which caused the prestige of my Tang Dynasty to be affected, and those foreign clans did not dare to come over and trust my Datang. Therefore, please ask the emperor to punish Jingwen severely. In addition, the minister asked the emperor to fulfill the covenant. ”

But Jingwen immediately said: "Your Majesty, this Yi Nan is actually ashamed, why did the emperor give the river to Xue Yantuo, isn't this ridiculous?" This person casually falsely preaches the holy decree. Therefore, it is necessary to punish severely, otherwise anyone will dare to falsely preach the holy decree in the future. ”

"Your Majesty, this is what you promised us Xue Yantuo! You cannot go back. Yi Nan said immediately.

"Please fulfill the covenant with the emperor!" Fang Yuan said.

Li Shimin's face became extremely dark, he did send Qiao Shiwang to tell Xue Yantuo back then. You can give them the Hetao, and then let them attack the Turks from behind. However, Li Shimin is only perfunctory to Xue Yantuo, and he will not really give them the river loop. Zheng zhì is so shameless. Anyway, Reece never intended to abide by this agreement later. But now that Fang Yuan actually offered to abide by the covenant, wouldn't that mean to give the Hetao to Xue Yantuo?

The Hetao Plain, this is absolutely not available to these foreigners. Once the foreigners gained the Hetao Plain. That had too much impact on the Central Plains. As long as you are a qualified politician, you will not be wrong anyway. Hetao Plain, if there is no way to take it down, then say something else. But now that it's taken down, it still has to be given to foreign clans, is it possible that the Tang Dynasty is two hundred and five? Although Li Shimin said that he would give the Hetao Plain to Xue Yantuo, he can completely deny it now!

"When did I promise to give you the Hetao?" Li Shimin asked.

Yi Nan immediately said, "Your Majesty, didn't you promise this?" ”

"Nonsense! When did I say yes? Li Shimin said.

As soon as Fang Yuan heard Li Shimin say this, he immediately secretly said that it was not good. Because the only core now is that Li Shimin said that he did not say that he would give the Hetao Plain to Xue Yantuo, if Li Shimin said it, then Jingwen would be punished, and he would give the Hetao Plain to Xue Yantuo. But now the emperor actually helped to commit perjury, which is to show that the emperor did not recognize any covenant at that time.

"Lord Fang Yuan, you have just entered the officialdom, right?" Jingwen asked.

"Yes, I came in through the guò imperial examination last year!" Fang Yuan said.

"No wonder, no wonder!" Jingwen shook his head and said.

Jingwen finally understood why this Fang Yuan's political level was so poor. Because he is a newcomer to officialdom, he actually took the initiative to take refuge in Li Ke, a prince with no future. And because he was a newcomer to officialdom and didn't have any governing experience, he didn't know the importance of the Hetao Plain to the Central Plains Dynasty, and he actually said that he wanted to give the Hetao Plain to Xue Yantuo. Even if Li Shimin said it back then, what can it be? Even if Li Shimin is now talking back. The high-ranking officials present could understand it, because the Hetao Plain was too important to them. Strictly speaking, the Hetao Plain is an important source of materials, and it must not be given to others. Once you give it to the enemy, you are in danger. Therefore, those officials who really have experience in governing can understand the emperor's remarks.

"Pull this Yi man down, this guy is pretending to pass the holy decree, he should be killed!" Li Shimin said that he should be killed, obviously he was really angry.

Soon, Yi Nan was dragged down screaming, obviously he was very unwilling, because Li Shimin actually retorted.

"Come on, bring Fang Yuan, a fool, down, dismiss him and ask questions, and never use it!" Li Shimin said angrily.

This time, even Wei Zheng didn't help this Fang Yuan, because this Fang Yuan was hopelessly stupid. He actually wanted to give the Hetao Plain to Xue Yantuo, and Wei Zheng knew the importance of the Hetao Plain, so naturally he would not intercede for this kind of person. And this kind of fool stays in the officialdom, which is to increase the danger to Datang. And Li Ke was even more helpless, finally having a person who took refuge in himself was actually dismissed and questioned. And Li Ke's resentment towards Jingwen has increased even more.
