Zhenguan Crown Prince Li Chengqian

Chapter 731 Conversation in the Cemetery
Whether Princess Guantao turned into a pig's head, or Princess Danyang reconciled with Li Chengqian, Li Chengqian never felt guilty or owed. Like them, they are of no benefit to the country, enjoying the dung-making machines enshrined by the people, and it doesn't matter whether they live or die.

But those guards who acted as scapegoats in this plan, without their sacrifices, Venisa would not be caught, Qusay and Ahulan would not reveal their true colors, and the following chess pieces would not be able to be played, so they had to die .

In Yushan Mausoleum, Li Chengqian asked the guards to place a jar of wine and a chicken in front of their tombstones. Compared with those flashy and generous elegiac eulogy, he believed that the soldiers liked this better.

Afterwards, he climbed up to the attic and looked down at the tombstones, which were neatly arranged like an army formation. At this moment, Li Chengqian had a little imagination, as if the people lying below had come to life again, waiting for his review, so they lined up Such a neat formation.

"Mr. Lu, have you ever stood here and seen Yushan's cemetery before?" He asked indifferently while touching his fingers while staring down at Li Chengqian.

"Returning to Your Highness, this is the first time for an old minister!" Hou Junji was usually on errands in other prefectures besides hanging around the emperor. Even if some soldiers were killed in battle, he didn't have the time to come.

"The people at the foot of Yushan work at sunrise and rest at sunset. How did they know how many soldiers of the Tang Dynasty fell down to protect the peace? When the sun rises again tomorrow, the people below are still working day after day. Day's work, as if nothing happened, no one would think how many graves were added here overnight."

"Gu sometimes thinks, how many graves here are added because Gu wants to preserve the storage space! Is it because Gu's utilitarian heart is too strong, so the soldiers paid the price with their lives!"

It is Li Chengqian's duty as the prince to serve the emperor and assist in political affairs, but because he alone took the lives of so many people, and he has been under pressure for so many years, he always has a stone in his heart and can't breathe.

No one is perfect. When these soldiers were alive, they may have such and such shortcomings on their bodies. The literati and bureaucrats thought they were vulgar and were not ashamed to work with them.But once the body died, he was immediately covered with the halo of righteousness, and the personality spirit was immediately mythical, and everyone praised him constantly. Isn't this another kind of utilitarianism?
"Your Highness has a benevolent heart, which is the blessing of my Great Tang. But according to the veterans, what the soldiers are defending is not His Highness's reserve, but the Great Tang's country, and they all firmly believe that only you, Your Highness, can make the eternal life of the Great Tang Taiping will be passed down."

Hou Junji has spent his whole life in the army, he certainly knows that people who roll out of the mountain of corpses and rivers of blood will inevitably feel guilty. After all, people are not animals, so how can they be ruthless!

What's more, the prince is different from ordinary people. Although he is very talented, he was still young when he joined the army. He was not as tall as a horse and had to go into battle. counted.

Lao Hou once asked the emperor in private, why he treats the prince like this, isn't he afraid that the country will not be protected?But the emperor's answer surprised him: If Li Chengqian couldn't even understand the simplest life and death, then his position as the crown prince was destined not to survive the Zhenguan dynasty.

The reason is very simple. Today's courtiers are not old foxes who are scheming and good at accidents. They have a fuel-efficient lamp and appoint a man who is good at women's hands as the prince. Sooner or later, the Tang Dynasty will fall like the former Sui Dynasty in human hands.

Therefore, he would rather take a son in and push him from time to time, but he also wanted to train a prince who could frighten all civil and military officials and aristocratic families.The emperor's calculations are like God's help, everything is so logical, but he only forgot that the prince is also a human being, and he also has feelings.

Hou Junji, like those courtiers, paid attention to the prince's martial arts, and seemed to forget that the prince was only a young man in his early twenties, and he already had a few gray hairs that did not match his age.Lao Hou believes that any minister with a little loyalty will feel that the prince is respectable and pitiful when he sees the prince mourning for these soldiers!

Hehe, after laughing twice, Li Chengqian turned around and said with a smile: "Mr. Lu, your words can always speak to Gu's heart. This time, you contributed a lot to the suppression of the Turkic intelligence forces. Cousin above Gu The emperor asked you to participate in political affairs in the name of inspector of the Ministry of War, and share a part or two for Du Xiang in the Ministry of War."

Before the accident in the Ministry of War, Du Ruhui wrote many times, asking the emperor to select a couple of important ministers to help him manage the affairs of the Ministry of War.But before the candidate was finalized, a series of cases happened, so it was delayed all the time.

No, before Changsun Chong's case was closed, the emperor consulted Li Chengqian and several important ministers for their opinions, so he made a favor, who made Lao Hou handle this errand well, the emperor and his heart!
Seeing that Lao Hou didn't thank you immediately, and his face was full of hesitation, Li Chengqian smiled and continued: "Mr. Lu, don't be nervous. Du Xiang is still Du Xiang. After you arrive at the Ministry of War, cooperate with him to handle the affairs of the cabinet. That's all, he has done a lot of things and is getting older, with you by his side, he can relax a lot."

Du Ruhui has been prime minister for more than ten years, and has always been strict and respectful in his work, but this case of the Ministry of War has triggered the attack and killing of the emperor, which cannot but be said to be caused by his dereliction of duty.This is a serious crime, the emperor's temper, the old marquis knows, but dismissing officials and ranks is already a great grace.If it were someone else, it goes without saying that even the Red Clan would not be enough to appease the emperor's anger.To be honest, Hou Junji was really sweating for him.

Moreover, the emperor brought Lao Du together to monitor the progress of the case. He thought it was over when it was over, but he didn't expect that this matter would not end, and the emperor still took down the power of his Ministry of War.Hou Junji served under Du Ruhui for many years, lived and died together on the battlefield, and supported each other in the court. He only had admiration and respect for this military prime minister.

So asking him to take Du Ruhui's place for the sake of fame and fortune, Hou Junji's character would definitely not be able to do it.It was precisely because he knew this that Li Chengqian explained this sentence more.

Phew, after taking a long breath, Hou Junji hurriedly handed over his hands to thank him, but Li Chengqian didn't care about these vain gifts, and insisted on dragging the old Hou to clean up the aisle with a guy. Two generations of soldiers, one old and one strong, even hummed together. singing military songs.

Do you say no clothes?In the same robe as the son.Wang Yuxing taught me to repair my spear.The same hatred with the son. ., Do you say no clothes?Wear the same clothes as your son.Wang Yuxing division, repair my armor soldiers.Walk with the child.
