Changsun's face was so gloomy that he could shed tears, and he hugged Li Tai tightly without saying a word.
Li Yuanji didn't see any guilt in her. Compared to Xue Shou and others who lowered their heads in shame, she was obviously more cold-blooded and ruthless.
However, Li Yuanji did not expect to see guilt in people like Changsun.
If she had felt guilty, she would not have become the famous Princess Qin, let alone the famous Empress Wende Changsun in history.
Although Changsun did not become a figure like Lu Pheasant, Wu Zetian, Liu E, Cixi and others in history, her contribution to the Tang Dynasty far exceeded that of Lu Pheasant, Wu Zetian, Liu E and Cixi.
contribution of the times.
She assisted Zuo Husband to create a flourishing and prosperous age, cultivated an outstanding heir for the Tang Dynasty, established a century-long prosperous age for the Tang Dynasty, and allowed the descendants of the Tang royal family to dominate the world for hundreds of years by resting on their merits.
Lu Pheasant, Wu Zetian, Liu E and others can still make some contributions to discuss with her, but as for Cixi, it’s okay not to mention them.
How could such a character have feelings?
If he had feelings, how could he become such a character?
Therefore, Li Yuanji was not surprised at all when something like a dead Taoist friend but a poor Taoist, sitting back and watching his nephew's life and death without any mercy happened to her.
"Come here! Take them down and take good care of them, let them reflect and reflect!"
Being disturbed by the eldest grandson, the matter of subduing Xue Shou and others could only be put on hold for the time being. Li Yuanji snorted coldly and gave the order decisively.
Yu Wenbao walked quickly to the palace and said yes, and then walked towards Changsun and Li Tai with a smile on his face. As he walked, he smiled and said: "Your Highness Princess Qin, Your Highness King Wei, please!"
Changsun looked at Li Yuanji with a deep look, picked up Li Tai, and left Zhaode Hall without looking back.
As Yu Wenbao chased after him, he called to the people below him: "Follow me, everyone!"
A group of Yu Wenbao's soldiers quickly chased after him.
After Yu Wenbao and his entourage left following Chang Sun's footsteps, the guards guarding the entrance of the palace quickly entered the palace and escorted Xue Shou and others away.
Li Yuanji looked at the main hall where Quan Xu was the only one left, and let out a sigh of relief.
Quan Xu hesitated for a moment and couldn't help but said: "Didn't His Highness want to conquer Xue Shou and others? Why did you give up again?"
Li Yuanji glanced at Quan Xu and said calmly: "What can I do if I don't give up? I scolded people again after being disturbed by my second sister-in-law. Do you think Xue Shou and others are still in the mood to worship a new lord?
?”
Quan Xu was stunned for a moment, then he hurriedly raised his hands and said, "I didn't think carefully. I hope Your Highness won't blame you..."
Li Yuanji waved his hand and said with emotion: "It is not easy to conquer my second brother's troops. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as a long and arduous task."
Compared with Li Jiancheng's people, Li Shimin's people are obviously more loyal.
It is very difficult to conquer them without using violence, coercion and other means.
"How are you doing in recruiting officials at all levels in the Tiance Mansion and the Xiuwen Hall?"
After Li Yuanji sighed with emotion, he asked about business matters.
Quan Xu said with an embarrassed look: "I have gained something so far..."
When I said the last word, my voice was almost gone and I had no confidence at all.
Li Yuanji frowned slightly and said: "So, you are an important minister and you haven't managed to recruit him?"
Quan Xu hurriedly said: "Your Highness, please give me a little more time. I will definitely convince Tiance Mansion and Xiuwen Hall."
Give you time?
If I give you more time, I'm afraid the day lilies will be cold...
Li Yuanji took a deep breath and said: "That's all, you don't have to worry about this anymore. You can take half of the troops from the Tongjunfu camp to Hangu Pass."
Since Yu Wenbao has come back and doesn't want to leave, someone must be sent to take his place.
Hangu Pass is now a top priority and cannot be missed.
Although the situation in Shaanxi Province and Duji Province has been calm so far, it does not mean that it will continue to be calm.
When Qu Tutong and Li Chengqian have appeased all the officials of Shaanxi Province and Duji Province, and when the intention to depose Li Shimin from all his official titles and demote Li Shimin to a commoner is completely announced to the world, there will definitely be some commotion in Shaanxi Province and Duji Province.
of.
Li Shimin had so many loyal ministers and good generals under his command, not all of them would recognize Li Chengqian as their young master.
Most of them came from troubled times, and they knew clearly what it meant to be an emperor and a courtier, and they also knew clearly who could bring them everything they wanted, so they could work for Li Shimin, who could bring them
People who are prosperous and wealthy may sacrifice their lives for Li Shimin, a man who can lead them to awe on the battlefield, but they may not necessarily sacrifice their lives for Li Chengqian, a child who knows nothing.
Therefore, Hangu Pass must be firmly held in hand to prevent changes in Shaanxi Road and Duji Road.
Not only that, Li Yuanji also planned to send Xue Wanshu to take over Tongguan to make two preparations.
When Quan Xu heard what Li Yuanji said, he thought that he had failed to do the job well and had disappointed Li Yuanji. Li Yuanji did not want to reuse him anymore. His face changed drastically and he exclaimed: "Your Highness, please give me another chance!"
He had already decided that this time, even if he was killed in a river of blood, he would still force everyone in Tiance Mansion and Xiuwen Hall to bow their heads.
Li Yuanji glanced at Quan Xu, waved his hand and said, "Okay, that's it."
Quan Xu became anxious and shouted: "Your Highness..."
Li Yuanji raised his hand to interrupt Quan Xu's words, and said a little speechlessly: "You don't think I sent you to Hangu Pass because you didn't do your job well and I don't want to reuse you, do you?"
Quan Xu was stunned.
Is not it?
Li Yuanji nodded his head and said angrily: "You are also a smart person, you can't always be confused just because you care too much about my thoughts.
Calm down, use your brain, and think about whether I will reuse or not reuse you when I ask you to go to Hangu Pass."
Quan Xu was completely stunned.
Li Yuanji did not talk to Quan Xu anymore, but ordered the eunuch guarding the door to bring some blank documents and began to write.
The first one is about Yu Wenbao.
Tiaoyu Wenbao returned to Beijing and served as the general of Qianniu Palace Guard, responsible for taking charge of all the palace gates north of Liangyi Gate and south of Xuanwu Gate. He also led the general of Qianniu Imperial City Guard, responsible for guarding Xuanwu Gate, Anli Gate and other palace gates.
To put it simply, all the portals, soldiers and horses in the places where Li Yuan, Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin can move in the future will be handed over to Yu Wenbao.
These portals have always been in Li Xiuning's hands, and Li Yuanji is worried.
It's not that Li Yuanji doesn't trust Li Xiuning, but that Li Xiuning is too emotional and is too soft-hearted towards his family. If Li Yuan, Li Jiancheng, and Li Shimin team up to play a trick on her, there is a 90% chance that she will be fooled.
So in order to avoid another turmoil in the palace, in order to avoid Li Yuan, Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin causing any trouble again.
Li Yuanji felt that it would be better to hand over these portals to Yu Wenbao.
With Yu Wenbao's loyalty, it is difficult to instigate rebellion, and it is also difficult to be deceived. If Li Yuan, Li Jiancheng, and Li Shimin played any tricks on him, not only would he not fall into the trap, but he might even kill someone with a knife.
This is called a scholar who encounters a soldier and cannot explain why.
No matter how smart, wise, or knowledgeable you are, if you encounter a fool who accepts death, you will be blinded.
The second one is about Ling Jing.
Ling Jing was Li Yuanji's number one adviser, and now that Li Yuanji's status had risen, Ling Jing could naturally join him.
However, after Ling Jing surrendered to the Tang Dynasty, he did not have much credit. In this palace coup, he only had one credit for protecting the daughter of Prince Qi. It is not good to be promoted too high all at once.
So Li Yuanji gave Ling Jing the position of Zhongshu Sheren.
Officials of the fifth rank are neither high nor low, but their powers are frightening. They can not only assist the king and Zhongshu Ling in drafting imperial edicts, but can also declare decrees on behalf of his subordinates. They can also work on behalf of the king to recruit troops and express condolences to ministers.
Not only that, according to Tang Dynasty regulations, Zhongshu Sheren could also hold other important official positions in Zhongshu Province.
From the founding of the Tang Dynasty to the present, almost all Zhongshu Sheren have held the official positions of Zhongshu Sheren, such as daily life ministers and general affairs ministers.
Therefore, giving Ling Jing the position of Zhongshu Sheren is equivalent to giving Ling Jing the official position of Living Room or General Affairs Minister at the same time.
Although the official ranks of the living room and the general room are far lower than those of the middle school room, the living room and the general room are close ministers around the king. They can always serve the king and record the king's words and deeds, as well as the king.
You can also help the emperor run errands according to the emperor's instructions.
After this, you can not only understand the king's habits, but also hear many secrets told by the king and important ministers when they are talking to each other. You can also do some arbitrary things on behalf of the king when running errands for the king.
It can be said that after leaving Chang'an City, he was not an imperial envoy, but he was better than an imperial envoy.
Putting Ling Jing in such a position will not only avoid irritation, but also be of great use.
The third one is about Kwon Wook.
There is nothing to say about the purpose of transferring Quan Xu to be the guard general of Hangu Pass.
The fourth part is about Xue Wanshu.
He appointed Xue Wanshu to concurrently serve as the garrison of Tongguan, commanding three thousand soldiers and horses from the palace to coordinate with Tongguan's original troops to guard Tongguan. There is nothing to say about the purpose of this.
The fifth one is about Chai Shao.
There is nothing to say about Tiao Chai Shao's temporary command of the Eight Great Commands of the Prince of Qin's Palace to unify the army and concurrently serve as Army Sima, because this was discussed in advance.
After writing these five documents, Li Yuanji hesitated for a while, then picked up the pen and wrote another document.
Liu Hongji was transferred to temporarily assume the post of general of Xiaoguan, and Cao Dan temporarily led the right guard with 6,000 troops to assist the left.
When Li Yuanji wrote this document, he hesitated because Liu Hongji had been with Li Shimin, was also very close to Li Shimin, and had claimed to be Li Shimin's man several times.
Although he did not participate in the palace coup and did not take any action during the palace coup and after the palace coup ended, Li Yuanji was still a little worried about him.
