I directed the Xuanwumen Incident

Chapter 222 I Must Be a Ruthless King?Killing brother to force father?Li Shimin broke the defense! (25)

bass!
Yu Chigong unsheathed the saber in his hand, and stood up abruptly!
"Your Highness, this person is so arrogant, why should he give him a good face?"

he said angrily,

"I will give him a knife, will he dare to be mad when he sees it!"

"Shut up Jingde! Put away your knife." Xu Fenglei knocked on the table.

Yu Chigong had a look of displeasure, but he had no choice but to put the treasured saber back into its sheath, and sat back in its seat.

Xu Fenglei reprimanded him, but Li Shimin didn't need to bother to reprimand this big boss.

He stared at Wei Zheng, and said coldly:

"Oh? Do you have a bit of backbone... you are not afraid of death?"

"What about your family? What about your siblings? You don't care about their lives?"

"Don't forget, your death not only caused you to go to hell, but also brought your relatives with you!"

"They died because of you! Don't you have the slightest bit of shame in your heart?!"

This trick is good for many tough bones.

I may not be afraid of death, but I absolutely can't bear the death of my family members.

Yesterday, a large group of rebels gave up resistance and surrendered under these words.

However, Li Shimin still underestimated Wei Zheng.

"I don't practice martial arts or Taoism. What I have always practiced is the art of the emperor and the way of governing the country."

Wei Zheng said calmly,
"Whether it is a person who learns this technique, whether he is one of the three lords, an extremely human minister, or he is punished for a crime and harms the nine clans, it is very common."

"I have already prepared."

"But I have to remind His Highness that the one who should be ashamed should not be me. It is His Highness who threatens to kill my nine clans, not me wanting to execute my relatives!"

"No one can stop a tyrant from doing things, so how can any relatives die because of me?"

Li Shimin's expression turned serious.

"What a Wei Zheng, he really has a sharp tongue."

He said with a smile,

"Are you so sure that I, Li Shimin, will be a tyrant?"

This guy, what he said made him feel even more upset!
"Why not sure?"

Wei Zheng asked back,
"Your Highness, do you know why your Majesty refuses to give you the position of Crown Prince because of your outstanding merits? You even repeatedly promised to go back on your word?"

"Oh? Do you have an opinion?"

Li Shimin raised his eyebrows and said,

"Tell me."

Regarding this point, he analyzed it himself, and Xu Fenglei also helped to analyze it.

But after all, it's all their own ideas. It's not impossible to listen to Wei Zheng's opinion from the "hostile camp".

"Just because you can win the world immediately, but you can't rule the world immediately!"

Wei Zheng seemed to have taken the initiative, and said loudly,

"Using violence can take down this country, but it can't feed the people of Li, nor can it fill the treasury, and it can't make the politics clear."

"Since ancient times, if you want to create a prosperous world, you must establish a country with force and rule it with culture!"

"Although Your Highness has excellent military exploits, the military exploits you have obtained have also consumed countless people's strength and exhausted the resources of the Tang Dynasty to pile them up!"

"If Your Highness is in power, you, who have the thinking of a military general, will definitely resort to military action. Even if you win many battles, can such a dynasty that only consumes and does not accumulate can last long?"

Li Shimin was thoughtful when he heard this.

The generals have already changed their colors.

boom!
Cheng Yaojin slammed the table and shouted:
"Wei Zheng! According to what you mean, our group of generals are useless? Let's take down the world and win so many battles, but instead make the country empty and weaker?"

"What nonsense!"

The generals were also filled with righteous indignation.

"Damn, I fought the world exhaustedly, and finally won the battle. You said it was too resource-intensive? It was a waste of people's strength?"

Yu Chigong couldn't bear his temper anymore, he slapped the table and said angrily,

"That's good! Let's not fight any more, let's abolish the army and let the enemy fight over!"

"When the time comes, let the anti-king barbarians occupy this Chang'an city, and they will steal all the resources! Resources, resources...without knives, guns, or soldiers, can these resources still be yours?"

"What a joke!"

The two of them were breathing heavily from their nostrils, wishing they could beat Wei Zheng to vent their anger!
"I didn't say generals are useless, I just said how to govern the country."

Wei Zheng looked calm and said,

"If you want to govern the country, you can't have a warrior mentality."

"This is why His Majesty would not consider King Qin as the prince, because King Qin will definitely rule the country with the thinking of a warrior, which is the worst thing. In the end, he will definitely become a senseless and stupid king, or a brutal tyrant."

"On the contrary, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the qualified ruler of success. If he becomes the ruler, he will surely become Emperor Han Wen and Emperor Han Jing, and stabilize the foundation for the Great Tang."

Li Er's face turned green when he heard this!

"Why do you think that I will definitely become a senseless and stupid king, a tyrannical tyrant?!"

Li Shimin was anxious and said,
"Come on, I'll give you a chance, tell me!"

"If you can't explain why, I'll let Yuchi Gong chop you up right now!"

motherfucker.

I just don't accept it, why do you jump to judgments!
"Your Highness, don't be in a hurry. Since I said that, I have a reason."

Wei Zheng calmed down and said,

"There are three reasons."

"Firstly, Your Highness has been leading troops in battle since he was 16 years old, and it has been 13 years since he fought in the South and North! It can be said that you have spent the first half of your life on horseback!"

"You know everything about the battlefield, but let me ask you, how many kinds of crops are there among the people, how much is the output of each crop, how is the tax collected in the Tang Dynasty, and what is the biggest demand of the common people for living? Do you know this?"

"I'm afraid, I haven't even understood it in depth!"

"A person who is not familiar with the country's people's livelihood, although he says he wants to be a wise king and govern the country well... But is this really believable?"

Li Shimin frowned.

It's hard for him to refute this.

Since he came out of Jinyang, he has been fighting for many years.

A person's energy is limited, he is only less than 30 years old, it is impossible to know how to fight wars and internal affairs!

"This one, you are right, continue."

He said sullenly.

There was a slight strangeness in Wei Zheng's eyes.

He didn't expect that Li Shimin would admit his shortcomings so readily, which doesn't look like a martial artist.

However, he was only slightly surprised, and he said unceremoniously:
"Secondly, His Highness punished his brother and forced his father to take over the position. This is wrong to win the country!"

"Whoever wins the country is not right, his heart must be evil! Can you tolerate remonstrance? Even if you can accept remonstrance, but if someone mentions today's events, can His Highness not change his face?"

"With His Highness's temperament and mind, I'm afraid ordinary remonstrances are too strong to be tolerated! Let alone the matter of killing a brother and forcing a father? The ring will be killed at that time! Afterwards, the speaker is obedient, who can dare to speak?"

"No one dares to advise, His Highness must be Kanglong, and the "Book of Changes" has long said that Kanglong must have regrets! How can the country not be destroyed?"

Li Shimin: "!!!"

Now he also wants to draw his sword and kill the old boy!
Every sentence pokes my heart, it's so exasperating!
