We have fought to the Arctic Circle, and you want me to inherit the throne?

After hearing Zhou Ming's words, Li Che sat down on the box with a gloomy expression.

Beside him, the Indian delegation lay on the ground, wailing continuously.

The people danced and clapped their hands.

At this moment, Li Che's mind was no longer on the Indian delegation, and beating these guys up was no big deal for him.

On the contrary, sending these books to various countries is a very serious matter.

Li Che knew that the ancients did not care much about this kind of reference book, but valued the books of sages more.

But the reference books that we discard like trash are considered sacred books in other backward countries!

These books cover a wide range of disciplines, which is equivalent to giving away China's thousands of years of accumulated knowledge for free.

If the monarchs of other vassal states had any brains, they would absorb the knowledge crazily. Who knows how many ungrateful people like Japan would be raised in the future!

Thinking of this, Li Che stood up suddenly.

The Indian envoy in front of him was startled and hurriedly said, "What are you going to do? You assaulted the Indian envoy, I'm going to sue you to His Majesty the Emperor of Daqing!"

Zhou Ming quickly translated it.

Li Che showed no fear and even found it a little funny. The guards and common people around him all looked worried.

It is certainly gratifying that His Royal Highness is standing up for everyone, but if this matter is reported to His Majesty, His Royal Highness will probably be punished.

The people did not want a good prince like King Feng to be punished.

"Your Highness, don't worry about him. We will go and plead for you!"

"Yes! We will go with you and explain the situation to His Majesty!"

"What are you afraid of? They were the ones who bullied us first. Your Majesty is wise and will never punish you for this!"

Li Che felt warm in his heart, looked at the people in front of him, and bowed:

"I thank you all for your kindness. You all came here to make a living. How can I waste your time? This matter will be handled by the Daqing government."

"It's a good thing that envoys from various countries have come to the imperial capital to celebrate. Daqing has fulfilled its responsibilities as a good host and treated them all with great hospitality, fearing that we might have neglected our guests."

"Yet some people refuse our toasts and regard our hospitality as weakness. Such envoys are unworthy of being friends of Daqing!"

"Although Daqing is a country of etiquette, we are not a pushover. If friends come, we have fine wine, but if wild beasts come... we also have hunting knives!"

Li Che pointed at the Indian envoy on the ground:

"There's no need for this beast to complain to the emperor. I just want to go to the palace and seek justice for the people!"

As soon as the words fell, cheers broke out from the crowd:

"it is good!"

"Your Highness is talking about boosting your energy!"

"These envoys are used to being arrogant and domineering. It's time to let them know the majesty of Daqing!"

"They clearly came to our Daqing to beg for food, but they act as if we owe them anything. If I were to ask, I'd say these barbarians don't understand reason and should be whipped."

Amid the cheers of the people, Li Che gave Qiu Bai a look.

The guards immediately stepped forward, pulled up all the wailing Indian envoys, and roughly gathered them together.

Qiu Bai stepped forward and whispered, "Your Highness, they've all been captured!"

Li Che raised his eyes and looked at the group of Indians, his eyes full of disgust: "Enter the palace and see the emperor."

. . . . . .

The Hall of Nourishing Heart.

Emperor Qing snuggled by the fire and read a book, feeling a little uneasy.

He frowned, put down the book, and said, "Huang Jin."

"The servant is here."

Emperor Qing rubbed his eyelids and said, "My right eyelid keeps twitching. According to folk sayings, this seems to be a bad omen."

Huang Jin pondered for a moment and immediately replied, "Your Majesty, this right eye twitching disaster is just a superstition spread by fools among the people. It is absolutely not to be believed."

"Oh." Emperor Qing nodded. "Huh? My right eyelid stopped twitching, but my left eyelid is starting to twitch."

Huang Jin immediately raised his head with an expression of ecstasy:

"Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, Your Majesty! This left eye is a sign of wealth. Your Majesty will soon have good fortune."

Emperor Qing was stunned by what he said, but then he couldn't help but burst into laughter: "Huang Jin, Huang Jin, you old dog, you really know how to talk!"

Huang Jin laughed foolishly and scratched the back of his head.

How dare he not be able to speak? The eunuch who couldn't speak would have been chopped off by you long ago and sent to the back mountain to fertilize the trees.

Suddenly, the eunuch outside the door said respectfully, "Your Majesty, the king requests an audience."

Emperor Qing smiled and said, "Didn't this kid just leave? What is he doing here?"

The eunuch quickly said, "Your Majesty, His Highness said... he came to apologize to Your Majesty."

Emperor Qing's smile froze for a moment, and then he felt his right eye twitching even more happily.

"This rebellious son...what trouble has he caused again?" Emperor Qing stood up helplessly and sat back behind the desk. "Forget it, let him in."

"Here."

Soon, Li Che walked into the Yangxin Palace with several eunuchs, who were carrying several heavy boxes.

"Your son, I pay my respects to your father." Li Che walked to the center of the hall and bowed.

Emperor Qing glanced at the big box and then said, "Sixth Brother, what trouble have you caused me again?"

Li Che raised his head and said calmly, "I have hit someone, and I apologize to you, Father!"

Emperor Qing almost laughed out of anger, pointing at Li Che and said unhappily:

"Good boy, you hit someone and still feel justified! Do you really think I won't punish you?"

Li Che said: "Although I hit someone, I had to do it. Father is wise and will never wrongly accuse me!"

"Don't try to be so rude!" Emperor Qing interrupted. "But you're arguing with your brothers again. Why can't you give in to them?"

Li Che shook his head: "I have not argued with my brothers."

Emperor Qing's expression softened slightly. "Then it's the ministers? Which minister did you hit? The Crown Prince's group or the Prince of Qin and the Prince of Jin's group? Could it be a first or second rank official?"

Li Che replied: "It wasn't the minister who was hit."

Emperor Qing laughed, his expression becoming more relaxed. "Oh, who was that foolish person who offended you? A soldier, or a civilian?"

"That shouldn't be the case. You're quite famous among the people, and even more so in the army. Who would want to mess with you?"

Li Che shook his head and said directly: "They are not ordinary people, but envoys from Tianzhu Kingdom!"

Emperor Qing's face suddenly darkened: "What happened? Tell me from the beginning!"

Li Che recounted in detail what had just happened.

Emperor Qing's expression was uncertain, and no one knew what he was thinking.

Li Che was not afraid at all and continued to output with all his strength:

"Although I have beaten someone, I do not regret it. The next time I see them, I will beat them again!

I have heard that after these foreign envoys entered the capital, they frequently disturbed the people.

Since they were foreign officials and were under the supervision of the Ministry of Rites, it was difficult for government officials to stop them, and many people in the capital complained.

They force people to buy and sell things today, bully people in the market tomorrow, and maybe even try to assassinate the king the day after tomorrow!

I, your son, impeach the Ministry of Rites for failing to perform its duties properly, for indulging envoys, and for disregarding the interests of the people!"

Emperor Qing nodded and looked at Li Che expressionlessly: "Are you done?"

"Not yet!" Li Che stiffened his neck and looked up at the emperor in front of him. "Although a son should not criticize his father's mistakes, if the emperor is wrong, it is a great loyalty for a minister to die for his advice!"

"Today's incident was caused by the Indian envoys' disrespect, and they are primarily responsible! The Ministry of Rites, for letting them go, is equally to blame!"

"Your Majesty is also at fault and should be held secondarily responsible!"

As soon as these words were spoken, Huang Jin felt a pain in his heart and almost fell to the ground.

Your Highness, Your Highness...why don't you go back to Fengguo?

I can’t bear such a horrible shock today!
