Zhenguan Crown Prince Li Chengqian

Chapter 645 - All the shit

Luck is a very mysterious thing, there are no rules to follow, and there is no fixed situation. This is the same as the art of war, the reason why soldiers have impermanence and water has impermanence is the same.One can imagine the joy of a gambler who has lost his whole life at the gaming table and wins a lot of money with his last penny when he is poor.

This is the case for Liu Jie. When he was young, he served Xiao Xian and worshiped as the servant of the Huangmen. Later, he led the army to attack Lingbiao in the south and captured more than [-] cities. His military achievements are evident.But because he is greedy and can't tolerate others, his popularity in Nanliang is not very good, and he has always been excluded from the center of power and far away from Jiankang.

In the fourth year of Wude, Xiao Xian was defeated. At this time, Liu Ji, who was in Lingnan, presented his watch and returned to the Tang Dynasty. He was awarded the title of governor of Nankang Prefecture.In the seventh year of Zhenguan, he was transferred to Chang'an, worshiped Shizhong, and was granted the title of male in Qingyuan County.

Li Chengqian looked down on him, not because of his greed and narrow-mindedness, these are not serious problems, what makes him dissatisfied is because of the emperor's "Daily Notes".

In the early years, Chu Suiliang served as the living man, specializing in recording the emperor's words and deeds.Once, Li Shimin asked Chu Suiliang for "Daily Notes".Chu Suiliang refused and said: "The "Life Notes" records the words and deeds of the monarch in the hope that the monarch will not do illegal things. I have never heard that the monarch can read it by himself!"

Li Shimin asked: "I have bad words and deeds, do you also want to write them down?" Chu Suiliang replied: "I dare not forget my duty." But at this moment, Liu Ji interjected: "Even Chu Suiliang did not record it, and the world will remember it."

These words sounded good for Chu Sui, and corrected the emperor's mistakes in speech and behavior, but in fact they alluded to the leak of the forbidden Chinese language by the servants around the emperor.This fell into the hands of the suspicious Li Shimin, and he immediately ordered him to thoroughly investigate the servants of the Taiji Palace. More than [-] innocent people were killed with sticks, but he used this to be promoted to be a secretary and serve as a censor.

Li Chengqian looked down on this kind of person who used innocent lives to climb up, and he looked down on him from the bottom of his heart. If you have the ability to go up to the constitution, you can count on your ability. What kind of power do you show to those servants? I don't know what it means!
, I drank three cups of tea, but Fang Xuanling still didn't finish his sentence, and it was a shocking secret. The reason why Liu Jie was promoted was to find the eldest son of the royal family?Among the princes of Emperor Li Tang, he is not the eldest son, no, to be precise, he is not the only eldest son among the living princes?

According to the patriarchal inheritance system, the inheritance of the imperial line is extremely strict. The eldest son is the first heir of Guozuo, and he occupies a righteous position in the clan and the hearts of the subjects, just like the first year of Zhenguan, when Li Chengqian was canonized as the prince. The edict clearly stated that the reason for making him the prince was that he was the first heir of the clan.So for many years, no matter how much Li Chengqian struggled, most of the courtiers responded to him with an attitude of persuasion, and his achievements over the years also depended on his status in many aspects.

The Sheji of the Tang Dynasty was created by Emperor Taiwu, so the emperor's son can only be discussed from him. Of course, the emperor's generation is naturally needless to say. He is the only son born to Empress Dou. He is naturally the eldest son. And it achieved its goal through mutiny.

And in the next generation, nearly all five sons built in the Xuanwu Gate were killed, so in the blood of the direct emperors, only Li Chengqian, Li Tai, and Li Zhi are left as the sons of the direct emperors. This is known to everyone in the world.

But now Fang Xuanling actually said that the long-gone eldest son, Taiyuan King Li Chengzong, is still alive. ?

"Fang Xiang, let me tell you that this matter is very secret. Except for the father, only five fingers know about it. Even the crown prince Gu doesn't know. Then tell me how Liu Ji found out and found the clues. And, why did the King of Taiyuan fake his death?"

Fang Xuanling clicked on the question raised by the prince, and then took out a copy of this chapter written by Liu Ji from his sleeve. Since the beginning, he has been working in the Ministry of Criminal Affairs, and he knows a lot about the secret affairs of many criminal officials in the court.

This time Chu Heng Daxing Literary Prison, one of the officials implicated was the deployment of the old East Palace. According to him, in the fourth year of Wude, which was also the year when the emperor who was then the King of Qin conquered Luoyang, the eldest son of the East Palace, King Taiyuan, Li Chengzong died without warning.

The man was proficient in some medical principles, and he had taught Jian Jiancheng to study all the year round, so he was naturally curious, how could the always healthy Taiyuan King be gone?Driven by curiosity, he used the convenience of walking in the palace to find out some secrets.

Conquering Luoyang and eliminating Wang Shichong, Emperor Taiwu was extremely excited, so he held a three-day banquet in Taiji Palace to celebrate.At the banquet, Emperor Taiwu said that when Li Chengzong became emperor in the future, he would definitely be the Emperor of Taiping, and all the ministers echoed his voice and agreed that the eldest grandson of the emperor could become the Emperor of Taiping, it was all because of Emperor Taiwu's brilliance and martial arts.

But at this moment, Taishi ordered Fu Yi to say that the army in the hands of King Qin had the intention of rebellion and self-reliance, and that Li Shimin's rejection of the request of Zhang, Yin and other concubines and rewarding the three armies was an act of buying people's hearts.When Fu Yi said that at the time, many people in the court thought that he deliberately separated the father and son of the Tian family in order to win the emperor's favor.

Perhaps the speaker had intentions, and the listener also had intentions, but Emperor Taiwu agreed in his heart, pretended to be angry, and waved his face to greet Pei Ji before leaving. He also chatted with Pei Ji all night long, the content of which could not be read by outsiders Know.

But on the fifth day after the banquet, Taiyuan King Li Chengzong fell into the palace river strangely, and the little man was soaked into a swollen corpse beyond recognition, so he became suspicious at that time, that is, the Taiyuan King did not die, but was killed. Li Yuan hid it.

Its purpose is self-evident, it is to guard against the king of Qin, and to keep a backup for himself and the crown prince.But he looked back and thought that there was no need. After all, Li Yuan was the emperor, no matter how much he feared King Qin, he wouldn't be afraid of such a situation, so he didn't say anything. .
When people are in extreme fear and joy, it is difficult to keep any secrets, so Liu Ji's brother-Liu Hong easily got the news, thought it was a chance to get ahead, and went straight to find his cousin, and stabbed him right away. Said the emperor.This gave the emperor, who had been searching for clues for many years, a glimmer of light, and immediately made a secret to get both the official and Liu Hong out.

Then, according to the prisoner's instructions, all the living subjects and waiters of the old East Palace were passed aside. What is even more surprising is that the clues were actually found. Therefore, in terms of public rewards, giving a position as a servant There is meaning.

"So, that's why you kept a secret outside the Chengqing Palace that year? It's really bad luck for this Liu Ji. You haven't found it after searching for so many years, but you let him take advantage of it. What a shame. Good fortune tricks people!" Li Chengqian suddenly realized.

"Yes, Your Highness, Your Majesty means to let you deal with it, whether to kill or to keep it in your mind." After finishing speaking, Fang Xuanling took out another token of the Xuanjia Army from his bosom and handed it over to him. To Li Chengqian. .
