Traveling through the early Tang Dynasty starts with hanging

There was silence in the Cuiwei Palace. Wherever the murderous Li Yuan looked, all the ministers bowed their heads... Qi King Li Yuanji was extremely favored by Li Yuan, and because he was attached to the East Palace, he also had his own power in the court.

There weren't many people present, but nowadays most of the court officials come from aristocratic families, and who doesn't have a relative? Many people are mentally calculating who will die this time, and whether any of the exiled people have their own in-laws...or rather, I have several in-laws of my own.

But there are still many in Chang'an. According to the system, there are many subordinate officials in Prince Qi's palace, and most of them are from aristocratic families.

It was really a river of blood. Li Shan could clearly feel the murderous intent pouring out of Li Yuan. In the history books, Li Yuan was indecisive and seemed like a good old man... But in fact, this Tang Gaozu was by no means a soft-hearted person.

In the second year of Wude, when Liu Wuzhou and Song Jingang swept through Hedong, the rebellion in Xia County made Li Yuan heartbroken... It was the Emperor of Tang Dynasty who ordered the massacre of the city after the war. The entire Xia County was left without chickens and dogs, and it has not recovered to this day.

Li Shan was glad that he had specially interceded privately a few days ago, for the sake of the former governor Shi Li Qianyou... who is still serving as the drawee of Prince Qi's palace.

Although because of his two elder brothers Li Yaoshi and Li Keshi, Li Qianyou may not be beheaded like other officials of Prince Qi's palace, but Li Shan still went to beg for mercy... This is the most appropriate thing to say, and it is also in line with his own history. image of.

In the end, Li Yuan promised not to plead guilty, but Li Qianyou, the governor of the original state, probably could not continue to do so. He might have a chance to recover when King Qin ascends the throne in the future.

Pei Ji, who lowered his head, was thinking about what would happen next...but he was certain that there would be something.

The reason is also very simple. His Majesty dealt with everyone involved in Yang Wengqian's rebellion case, and forcibly brought Yang Wengqian and Qi King Li Yuanji together, but did not deal with the East Palace... After all, Yang Wengqian was well known as the prince's confidant.

As for Wei Zheng being exiled to Lingnan, Pei Ji guessed that it was because Du Yan from Tiance Mansion was exiled... Your Majesty needs to express an attitude. Thinking about it, Wei Zheng is quite unlucky.

Sure enough, Li Yuan then announced several transfer orders. Among them, the one directly related to the East Palace was that the guard general Li Gaoqian of the right prison was dismissed and replaced by Yongzhou Sima Wang Junhao. This was after the battle in Tiantai Mountain last year because many generals were injured. Or die, Li Shimin specially transferred from other places, and also came to Beijing with Li Shiji, Huang Junhan, and Pang Yu.

Luo Yi, the king of Yan County, had been dismissed as the general of the right prison guard before. This time he was driven out of Chang'an and became the general manager of Hezhou... In fact, this position has always been attached to Luo Yi, and the Changlin Army under his command is also stationed in Hezhou. state.

Li Gaoqian, the prince's closest confidant, was deposed and replaced by King Qin's favorite general. Luo Yi, the prince of Yan County who the prince relied on most, was expelled from the capital... All of this has truly demonstrated the intentions of Li Yuan, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Jiancheng listened expressionlessly. Could he still stand up and say something wrong?

A series of adjustments followed. Hou Hongtao was promoted three levels in a row and became General Zuo Qianniuwei. Li Yaoshi, acting Duke of the State, was appointed as the general manager of Yanzhou Road March. Dou Gui was transferred back to Chang'an.

Acting governor Shi Qinwutong took over as acting governor of Daizhou, Xue Wanjun took over as acting governor of Daizhou, and governor Yong Shi Li Shiji was transferred to acting governor Shi.

There is no doubt that after this adjustment, the King of Qin's lineage has completely taken over Daizhou. If they want, Li Shiji, Xue Wanjun, and Zhang Gongjin can take over Qin Wutong, the general manager of Daizhou, at any time.

In general, among Li Yuan's various actions, not many were directed at the East Palace, but his intention to support the King of Qin was fully revealed.

Li Shan turned his head and glanced at Chai Shao, who was sitting not far away because of difficulty in walking. He didn't know whether it was this person or the third sister who would control the Beiya Imperial Army... But this position was no longer important.By the way, there is also the third uncle, Er Zhu Yichen, who cannot be dealt with. After all, he was not involved, but he doesn’t know where he will be thrown... It sounds quite unlucky. Yang Wengan probably rushed back to Er Zhu Yichen when he conspired to rebel. On the way to Chang'an.

Logically speaking, when Daizhou Sima returned to the court, he would have to send a local governor and general manager, and there should be at least [-] generals staying in the capital, but now it seems that this is unlikely.

The adjustment of other positions will have to wait until after returning to Chang'an. The older ones are like Sinong Qing and Sinong Shaoqing, and the younger ones are countless.

Li Yuan's eyes fell on Li Shan. After hesitating for a while, he still did not speak. He only announced that the court meeting was over... Li Yuan had a headache about how to reward Li Huairen, the heir to the throne of Wei who rescued him again. He had no choice but to reward him. Not the first time.

However, this young man is very well-behaved. He is not greedy for military power, nor does he seek power. He does not even go to the government to take charge of matters. He is also loyal and is his absolute direct descendant.

After the ministers retreated, Li Yuan motioned to Li Shimin to follow him and returned to the back hall.

Seeing Li Yuan's frown, Li Shimin asked tentatively: "Father, is hesitant about the successor of Wei?"

"Yes." Li Yuan said with a wry smile: "Last year there were rumors in the capital that Huairen invited himself back to the capital for training after taking Xiaoguan on a snowy night. It is difficult to reward him this time, but if he does not increase the reward, I am afraid there will be trouble. "

"Father is overly concerned." Li Shimin said with a smile: "Who is Huairen? Doesn't father know?"

"Huairen became famous all over the world at a young age. He had many military exploits and was crowned king. However, he was extremely cautious. When he captured the army and defeated the Turks, there were many sights on the banks of the Cangtou River. In the end, he did not invite himself to return to the capital for training."

"Well, Huairen is even a little lazy, far from being like Li Yaoshi or Ren Gui."

Li Yuan couldn't help but nodded slightly. Li Jing and Ren Gui were both famous people who wanted to make contributions and leave their names in history.

"It really won't cause any gaps?"

"No." Li Shimin shook his head and said, "Li Huairen is self-aware. In his talks a few days ago, he deliberately mentioned generals such as Su Dingfang, Zhang Zhongjian, and Liu Heer."

Li Yuan understood the meaning of these words. Li Shan was recommending outstanding generals among his bodyguards to Li Shimin... and at the same time stating that he no longer had any desire to return to the battlefield.

Li Shan and Ling Jing both mentioned it to Li Shimin in private, and Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui also made suggestions. Even Changsun Wuji, who disliked Li Shan the most, admitted that as long as Li Shan was no longer tainted with military power, he would have no worries in this life.

However, Li Shimin himself was noncommittal. He had great ambitions. How could a famous general like Li Shan, who was so well-behaved, so good at fighting, and so young, remain idle?

In history, Li Yaoshi destroyed the Eastern Turks and conquered Tuyuhun, so that although he was the prime minister, he had to live in seclusion. However, Li Shan was different. Although he, like Li Jing, was not an old subordinate of Li Shimin, he was still fighting for the throne. Take action in advance during the battle, instead of sitting on the mountain and watching the fight between tigers like Li Jing.
