Chapter four hundred and thirty seventh: Changsun Wuji takes action
The imperial court received a memorial from Liangzhou, and the content of the memorial was actually to impeach the king of Shu, Li Min.
After seeing this memorial, Li Shimin was shocked and angry. At the same time, he secretly complained to Li Min that he really shouldn't be so troubled.
Min'er's letter had a good intention, reminding Liangzhou to beware of Tuyuhun's sudden attack.
But now the Tang Dynasty has just sent an envoy to Tuyuhun, preparing to make peace with them. Now the envoy has probably arrived in Tuyuhun, right?
How could Tuyuhun attack Liangzhou?
Lu Hao, the governor of Liangzhou, was originally a member of the Lu family with the fifth surname and Qi Wangzhong.
It can be said that Qiwang and the King of Shu are incompatible with each other. How could the Lu family miss this great opportunity?
However, although the King of Shu made mistakes, he had good intentions and was his own son, so Li Shimin was naturally not prepared to punish him.
Therefore, Li Shimin planned to drag this matter over and suppress the memorial first. After a while, it would naturally be settled.
During the early morning court meeting, the major matters in the court had almost been discussed. Li Shimin couldn't help but ask: "My dear friends, do you have anything else to do? If there is nothing, then withdraw from the court!"
Recently, Concubine Yang has used a new type of perfume, and Li Shimin is very obsessed with this smell.
Li Shimin also planned to go to the Hanxiang Hall to take a good whiff of the perfume after he retired from the court.
At this moment, Gao Shilian stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I have something to report."
Li Shimin glanced at Gao Shilian, slightly aware of the difference, and couldn't help but ask: "What does Gao Aiqing have to say? Just tell me."
Gao Shilian couldn't help but said: "I impeach Li Min, the king of Shu!"
boom!
Gao Shilian's words once again caused a storm in the court.
Unexpectedly, Gao Shilian would impeach the King of Shu this time!
When did the King of Shu offend Gao Shilian?
Hearing Gao Shilian's words, Li Shimin's face didn't look very good. He couldn't help but look at Gao Shilian and asked: "Gao Aiqing, why did you impeach the King of Shu?"
Gao Shilian solemnly said: "Your Majesty, Li Min, the King of Shu, innocently wrote a letter to the Liangzhou Governor, making alarmist remarks and deceiving Chen Bing, the Liangzhou Governor, to march on the border of Tuyuhun. If the Liangzhou Governor really did that, it would inevitably worsen the relationship with Tuyuhun.
."
"And we are now preparing for the critical moment of getting married to Tuyuhun. This move by the King of Shu is suspected of destroying my plan to get married. I beg your Majesty to punish the King of Shu severely to set an example for others."
It turned out to be for this reason.
It must be said that Gao Shilian's reason is very sufficient.
But it was still hard for everyone to understand why Gao Shilian came forward.
Because there seems to be no grudge between Gao Shilian and the King of Shu.
At this moment, Changsun Wuji stood up and said: "Your Majesty, I second the proposal. I think the King of Shu's behavior is inappropriate and must be severely punished. I hope your Majesty will learn from it."
After Changsun Wuji, officials from the Five Surnames and Qiwang faction came forward one after another to agree.
After Wang Xin committed suicide in prison, the officials of the Five Surnames and Qiwang Faction suffered a heavy blow to their arrogance, and have become much more honest in recent times.
But now Changsun Wuji and Gao Shilian actually came forward to impeach the King of Shu. Officials from the Five Surnames and Qiwang faction naturally refused to let go of this excellent opportunity.
The reason why Gao Shilian impeached the King of Shu was naturally revealed after Changsun Wuji came forward.
Gao Shilian is Changsun Wuji's uncle. Gao Shilian came forward naturally because of Changsun Wuji.
Needless to say, the reason why Changsun Wuji impeached the King of Shu was to help the prince.
Because now the rise of King Shu has threatened the status of the prince, making Changsun Wuji feel the pressure.
Therefore, now that he had such a good opportunity to attack the King of Shu, Changsun Wuji naturally refused to let it go.
Seeing Changsun Wuji come forward to impeach Li Min, Li Shimin couldn't help but frown slightly.
This matter is indeed a scandal, and someone has taken advantage of it.
And Changsun Wuji's behavior today also made Li Shimin dissatisfied with him.
But in this matter, it is not easy for Li Shimin to be partial.
Li Shimin couldn't help but ask: "Dear ladies, what do you think about this matter?"
As soon as Li Shimin finished speaking, Cheng Yaojin picked his nostrils and stood up and said: "Changsun is a big bastard, Old Man Gao, how can you be so shameless? Those censors spend all their time chasing rumors and making things out of thin air, and they have never been punished! Now the king of Shu
Because of your good intentions, you were punished for writing a letter? Are you fooling yourself? How can you be so shameless?"
After Cheng Yaojin, Yu Chigong and others also came forward one after another. Sun Wuji, Gao Shilian and others were shameless.
Changsun Wuji sneered and said: "The censor has the right to gossip about things, but the King of Shu is not the censor. Moreover, the king of Shu is interfering in the affairs of other states by interfering in the affairs of other states, which may lead to extremely serious consequences.
, if it is not punished, how can it serve as a warning to future generations?”
Cheng Yaojin cursed loudly: "Changsun, you big bastard, don't quibble, your accusation is clearly a frame-up! You are despicable and shameless! You are vile, you are a scoundrel!"
Changsun Wuji sneered and said: "You idiot Cheng, this is above the court, so don't mess around!"
For a time, a group of civil servants headed by Changsun Wuji and a group of military generals headed by Cheng Yaojin started to quarrel.
"Okay, that's enough. Shut up! You are still important ministers of the imperial court. How can you be so noisy?"
As soon as Li Shimin got angry, all the officials below immediately stopped talking.
However, in this matter, Cheng Yaojin and other generals were actually messing around with Changsun Wuji.
The real truth lies on Changsun Wuji's side.
And they insist on this point.
Even Li Shimin, under such circumstances, could not favor Li Min, the king of Shu.
In the end, Li Shimin had no choice but to ask: "Auxiliary engine, in your opinion, how should we deal with this matter?"
Hearing Li Shimin's words, Changsun Wuji was overjoyed, but he said calmly: "I am reporting this to the emperor. I think that if the king of Shu makes a big mistake, he can take back his post as governor!"
It turns out that this is Changsun Wuji’s ultimate goal!
Jiedushi is equal to the local emperor of one side.
If the King of Shu maintains his own troops in Yizhou, it will really be difficult to do anything to him.
After taking away the position of Jiedushi of the King of Shu, it would be easy to manipulate him.
After Changsun Wuji put forward this suggestion, other civil servants agreed.
In the end, Li Shimin could only say helplessly: "Okay then, let me leave this matter to the auxiliary machine!"
"Yes, I will obey your orders."
After getting Li Shimin's permission, Changsun Wuji's face was pale, but his heart was overjoyed.
If you can capture the Shu King's Jiedu Envoy, the Shu King will no longer be a threat to the prince.
