I have to admit that the former Sui Dynasty made the right choice to build a summer palace here. It is surrounded by Tiantai Mountain, leaning against the Qianshui River, shaded by green trees, fragrant flowers and birds, and cool breeze, which makes people feel relaxed and happy.
Li Shan stayed here for two or three days and didn't want to go back to Qianyuan County... Anyway, that's what he said to Li Yuan, Li Yuanji, Yang Gongren and others.
On the one hand, there was nothing of his own in the valley anyway. Whether it was farming, merchants or all kinds of things, there were people who took care of them. On the other hand, Li Shan was shocked by what Ling Jing told him before.
If there is another Xuanwu Gate incident in this life, the protagonist will definitely still be Li Shimin.
The tragic characters are probably Li Yuan, Li Jiancheng, and Li Yuanji, but who will be the key supporting role?
Will it still be Chang He in the original time and space?
Or is it Su Dingfang who is in charge of the Beiya Imperial Army?
Or was it King Ma Bin who was forced to pass by him?
So what role will you play?
After a brief period of confusion, Li Shan quickly determined one thing: Li Shimin would not take action in Renshou Palace.
If you want to launch a mutiny, you need to determine two goals.
The first is to control Li Yuan, and the second is to kill Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji neatly, and behead their heirs.
Both must be carried out at the same time and must be successful at the same time. Failure in either action will cause the situation to get out of control.
Later generations commented that Li Yuan was indecisive on the issue of successors, but he was the founding monarch of the Tang Dynasty after all. If he was not controlled, even if the other two legitimate sons Li Jiancheng, Li Yuanji and their heirs were killed, they would not necessarily be able to do so.
The throne was passed to Li Shimin as it was in the original time and space.
And if Li Yuan is controlled but fails to successfully ambush Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, the situation will definitely be corrupted. No matter who survives, the split of the clan is inevitable. You must know that Li Shimin has no righteousness in the eyes of the world.
Hand.
Therefore, even if Li Shimin wanted to launch a mutiny, he would not choose Renshou Palace.
Halfway up the mountain, he met his friend Yang Siyi who came with his father Yang Gongren. The two chatted for a while and then climbed the mountain together. Li Shan was still thinking about it. From this perspective, the whole process of the Xuanwumen Incident in history can be called
Perfect.
The day before, Li Shimin secretly accused Li Yuan, the prince, and the King of Qi of promiscuity in the harem. That night, Li Shimin led his generals to sneak into the palace secretly through the Xuanwu Gate... At that time, the King of Qin did not live in the Chengqian Hall, and had been driven to the newly built Hongyi Palace in the Forbidden Garden.
Already.
Being able to sneak into the imperial city and successfully control Li Yuan without leaking the news... As a result, Pei Ji, Pei Shiju, Chen Shuda and other prime ministers fell into the trap one after another, and were finally sent to the ship by Li Shimin. This is by no means normal.
No one should be able to do that.
Li Shan guessed that the Beiya Forbidden Army in the original time and space had been completely controlled by Li Shimin... You must know that Li Shimin was in a very difficult situation at that time, and was almost forced into a dead corner.
Li Yuan was also a son of a noble family, with excellent literary skills and military skills. It was impossible not to know that the royal family killed each other for the throne, and the blood was stained... It was impossible for him not to be vigilant, but in the end it was useless.
Judging from the hindsight, after sneaking into the palace, Li Shimin took over the imperial army almost perfectly, and calmly arranged it, waiting for Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji to fall into the trap...
Otherwise, Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji were not fools, and they would not have discovered something was wrong until they were close to Linhu Palace... By then it would have been too late.
From any angle, this is a perfect mutiny. From laying the groundwork in advance, to planning beforehand, to specific implementation, and finally closing the palace, it is all perfect... If there is a flaw, it is Li Shimin.
The protagonist was almost killed by Li Yuanji.
"Brother King Qin."
Li Shimin nodded slightly, his eyes briefly touched in the air, and then left with Changsun Wuji, Changsun Shunde, and Duan Zhixuan.
Li Shan smiled bitterly in his heart. In the past few days, he had also seen clearly that Li Yuan was old after all. There were only two things that old people liked most, one was charming beauties, and the other was the filial piety of their descendants.
Needless to say about the former, most of the concubines in the palace sided with the East Palace, but for the latter... Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji both performed flawlessly, and even Li Yuanji would dress up in colorful clothes to entertain the bride, which made Li Yuan happy.
As for Li Shimin in this regard...it's not that he is unfilial, but his long military career with unparalleled prestige in the military has made General Tiance really embarrassed.
The eldest grandson Wuji, eldest grandson Shunde, and Duan Zhixuan brought here today are either royal in-laws or Li Yuan's old subordinates... But obviously they can't get any benefits.
Li Shan thought to himself that Li Shimin was a bit like him...he was not good at flattery.
Let the palace people report it. Li Shan stood outside the palace and looked at the backs of Li Shimin and his party from a distance. He suddenly thought, who planned the Xuanwu Gate change?
At the last moment in my memory, Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui were both driven out of Chang'an. Apart from generals such as Yu Chigong, Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, and Duan Zhixuan, there were only Gao Shilian, Zhang Gongjin, and Changsun Wuji around.
Uh, maybe it's Changsun Wuji's old silver coin.
The more Li Shan thought about it, the more he felt that his guess was correct. He remembered that Li Shimin once said in history after he ascended the throne that I owe the world to this person. Changsun Wuji also ranked first in merit and was awarded the title of Duke.
But when Li Shimin was fighting in the south and north as the king of Qin, Changsun Wuji did not show his extraordinary military talents. With his qualifications and status in the Tang Dynasty, if there were any, the history books should not miss it.
Li Shimin also said that Changsun Wuji was good at avoiding suspicion, quick in responding to things, and decisive in making decisions. The ancients were not as good as him, but he was not good at commanding troops to attack.
Then why did Changsun Wuji become the first?
Why did Li Shimin say that my victory in the world was due to the power of this person?
The only reasonable explanation is that Changsun Wuji was probably the mastermind behind the Xuanwumen Incident.
Li Shan thought about it in his heart, and the more he thought about it, the more it made sense... He had to be careful about this old silver coin in the future. Should he go back and bring Sister Wu into the harem?
This is Changsun Wuji’s perfect nemesis.
Do the math, sister Wu was born last year, and after twelve or thirteen years of waiting... I can still play the development game.
Li Shan decided to look back and let people pay attention. When Wu Zetian's father died...it was said that Wu Zetian's mother and daughter were kicked out, and he just took over.
At this time, the palace people summoned him, and Li Shanju walked into the palace.
On the left side of the hall, several children were playing, and on the right side, Li Yuan was playing chess with Pei Shiju.
Li Shan secretly cursed a few words, it was such an unlucky time.
"Huairen is here." Li Yuan smiled and waved, disturbing the chessboard with his sleeves.
"Uncle..." Li Shan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He couldn't defeat Zhang Wenguan, so he wouldn't be so shameless.
"Hongdae has been known as a good talker since he was a boy."
Li Yuan laughed a few times, but Pei Shiju across from him didn't take it seriously and reached out to pick up the chess pieces one by one.
"Hongda has recommended Huairen several times, but has no personal relationship." Li Yuan pointed at Li Shan, "It's a rare meeting, why don't you thank me?"
The corners of Li Shan's mouth moved, and his eyes collided with Pei Shiju's, who also moved the corners of his mouth.
The next moment, Li Shan bowed deeply.
"Prime Minister Pei is good at recognizing people, and he is also upright and honest, but if he is recommended by Prime Minister Pei and rises to great heights, he will be rewarded in great ways one day."
