Chapter 235: Changes in Xuanwu Sect! unintentionally involved

At the same time, the conflict between Li Shimin and Li Jiancheng has also intensified.

Because he almost drank poisonous wine, Li Yuan finally decided to let Li Shimin leave Chang'an and go to Luoyang to join the feudal clan.

He was originally an indecisive person. If it weren't for his indecisiveness, the relationship between Li Shimin and Li Jiancheng would never have developed to this point.

But now even Li Yuan finally realized that he had to make a decision.

So he planned to let Li Shimin go to Luoyang to join the feudal clan and end the differences between him and Li Jiancheng.

Li Yuan called Li Shimin to him and said, "You have made great contributions to the fight against the Sui Dynasty, the pacification of the sea, and the establishment of the capital."

"It stands to reason that you should receive many rewards, but you keep refusing."

"Originally, I planned to establish you as the crown prince, but the problem is that you strongly refused. Now it seems that you brothers are incompatible. If this continues, there will definitely be disputes."

"So I plan to send you back to Xingtai and stay in Luoyang. The vast area east of Shaanzhou will be under your control."

"Just like the story of King Liang Xiao of the Han Dynasty, I also want you to set up the emperor's banner!"

This is recorded in history books, but no one knows whether Li Yuan said this.

The system of primogeniture has always been a system beyond doubt.

In that year, Li Shimin and Li Jiancheng had equal contributions to the pacification of the world.

So no matter how you look at it, there is no reason for Li Yuan not to make his eldest son Li Jiancheng the prince, but to make Li Shimin the prince instead.

The most bizarre thing was that Li Shimin strongly refused.

It doesn't make sense no matter how you look at it.

So the only explanation is that after Li Shimin seized the throne, he tampered with the records and tried his best to discredit his brother and father.

He even laid the groundwork for his succession to the throne to prove the legitimacy of his ascension to the throne.

But the historical facts have no meaning. This is what the records of later generations say.

Then Li Shimin cried and declined on the grounds that he did not want to stay away from his father's knees.

Of course Li Shimin could not agree.

What he wants to do is the emperor, not the free vassal king.

Even if he goes to Luoyang and becomes the vassal king, when Li Jiancheng comes to the throne, is it not just a matter of saying something to deprive him of his title?

When the time comes, the cavalry will have no chance of winning if they rebel!

However, Li Yuan gave another reason for his refusal: "The distance between Dongdu and Xidu is very close. As long as I want, you and my son can see each other at any time, so you don't have to worry and sorrow."

Li Shimin here had already made plans to seize power and was unwilling to leave the capital.

On the other side, Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji were not willing to see Li Shimin leave the capital.

What if he is really allowed to return to Luoyang, Li Shimin wins people's hearts, and he still has an army in his hands, and then he really starts a rebellion?

Although Li Jiancheng was the prince, he had not held military power for a long time. If Li Shimin really launched an army to rebel, Li Jiancheng was really not sure of victory.

It would be better to keep Li Shimin in the capital and slowly take away all the rights in his hands. This is the best strategy.

For Li Shimin, it doesn't matter whether he stays in the capital or returns to Luoyang. No matter where he goes, he is fully prepared.

He can launch a coup in the capital, and when he returns to Luoyang, he can prepare his army and seize it directly by force.

But in that case, your reputation may not be very good, and there will be many variables in the process.

If you stay in the capital, you will have to face Li Jiancheng's pressure every step of the way.

He was not worried about his life.

Because no matter how much Li Jiancheng wants to kill him, his father is still on the throne now.

Li Shimin really knew his father too well. He was originally an indecisive person. How could he make up his mind?

Li Jiancheng inherited this from Li Yuan very well and didn't know how to adapt.

If Li Shimin had been in Li Jiancheng's position, he would have forced Li Yuan to abdicate early, and then imprisoned himself himself.

Both Li Yuan and Li Jiancheng were defeated by indecision!

In short, both options are good or bad for him.

In order to let Li Shimin stay, Li Jiancheng made suggestions to Li Yuan.

Li Yuan's mind was not firm at first, so Li Shimin's trip to Luoyang was delayed.

In fact, Li Shimin had made preparations in Luoyang early.

If Li Jiancheng really puts Li Shimin back to Luoyang, then there is at least a 70% chance that Li Shimin will succeed in bringing me back.

Staying in the capital now is just another way.

After this incident, Li Shimin also realized that the matter had reached a critical juncture, and he could not help but hesitate.

On the first day of June in the ninth year of Wude, there were a large number of Taibai Venus stars.

It was clearly daytime, but Taibai Venus appeared in the midday position due south in the sky during the day!

According to Li Shimin, this is a symbol of "change in the sky".

As for whether the Taibai Venus really appears, and whether this is a sign of a real change in the sky, that depends on the beholder and the wise.

Anyway, Qin Tian didn't notice any changes in the constellations in the sky.

The second day of June in the ninth year of Wude.

Qin Tian got up early early.

Today he and Sun Simiao agreed to discuss medical books together, so he prepared to go out early.

I don't know what happened recently. The whole capital is in turmoil, and many soldiers have extremely serious expressions.

The people even felt a little uneasy. Could it be that the Turks were about to attack?

Qin Tian didn't feel anything about this and continued to eat and drink as usual.

But Lingxia was very interested in everything outside.

This is the first time she has come to live in the human world in human form.

Whether it was Chang'an's delicacies or the recreational activities, she was very intoxicated.

Muchun had no interest in these.

Her biggest hobby every day is taking care of Qin Tian.

Many times Qin Tian only needed clothes, hands, food and mouth, and did not need to do anything by himself. Sometimes he felt that Mu Chun took good care of him.

He also mentioned this matter, but Muchun said: "This is my only pleasure. If Master doesn't let me do these things, then I don't know what to do."

Qin Tian had no choice but to let her go.

So every time he goes out, Qin Tian doesn't need to worry about anything at all. He only needs to tell him the arrangements the day before, and Mu Chun will arrange them for him!

Just when a few people were about to go out, a tall man with thick beard and hair walked in outside the medical center.

The big man was a little secretive and seemed to have an ulterior motive.

"Does this patient have anything to hide?" Qin Tian smiled slightly: "You can come with me to the indoor clinic for treatment. Don't worry, no one will hear the conversation between you and me."

Yuchi Gong glared at Qin Tian, ​​but did not answer and walked straight into the house.

Seeing the two women in the room, Yuchi Gong's tense heart seemed to relax slightly.

Seeing Qin Tian following him without changing his expression, Yuchi Gong actually seemed to appreciate it.

"You don't need to know who I am, and I'm not here to treat illnesses. Bring your clothes. I just want two robes." "I didn't bring any money today. When the matter is over, someone will naturally bring money to my door. Come."

"It's just two pieces of clothing. No need for money." Qin Tian asked Mu Chun to fetch two pieces of clothing and give them to the big man in front of him.

“When we go out and encounter difficulties, it’s natural to help whenever we can.”

"It's just that my figure doesn't seem to be very similar to yours..."

"You don't have to worry about that. Your figure is just right."

Yuchi Gong took two pieces of clothes and bowed to Qin Tianyi: "Thank you sir for your help."

"We will reward you generously in the future!"

Watching Yu Chigong leave, Lingxia was a little curious.

"Master, master, who is that person? Why did he ask you to borrow clothes? Doesn't he have clothes to wear?"

Qin Tian looked at the back of the strong man and said thoughtfully: "I don't know who they are, but since they want clothes, just give them to them."

“Maybe we’ll never see them again in the future?”

Lingxia nodded in understanding, but then didn't take it to heart.

She recently picked up a gray kitten, held it in her hands and played with it all day long, and couldn't put it down.

After closing the door, Qin Tian led the two disciples towards Taibai Mountain.

At this time, Qin Tian didn't know that he had unknowingly participated in the Xuanwu Gate incident!

Although Li Yuan was indecisive, Li Jiancheng was not weak in his approach.

Just after Li Yuan wanted Li Shimin to return to Luoyang, Li Jiancheng advised Li Yuan. Although Li Shimin stayed in the capital, his subordinates Fang Qiao and Du Ruhui were ordered by Li Yuan not to associate with Li Shimin anymore.

Without these two people, Li Shimin would almost lose his right-hand man!

At this time, the Turks invaded Wucheng, so Li Jiancheng planned to take this opportunity to seize the military power from Li Shimin.

At this time, Li Shimin's right-hand man had been expelled from the Qin Palace. Once his military power was taken away, Li Shimin would never have a chance to stand up again!

As for whether Li Jiancheng planned to take action against Li Shimin, that is not something the world can know.

Because once Li Jiancheng succeeds, Li Shimin will no longer have any threat.

Without military power in his hands, and his right and left arms had been cut off, Li Shimin was almost a useless person.

So whether to keep Li Shimin at that time depends entirely on Li Jiancheng's mood.

As for the record in the history books that Li Jiancheng planned to kill Li Shimin in advance, this kind of record is a matter of benevolence and wisdom.

Anyway, Li Shimin made many false accusations against his brother in the history books. One more thing is not too much, and one less thing is not a lot.

In short, Li Shimin has long made plans to rebel, and now is the time for him to officially seize the throne!

But it is definitely not possible to rely solely on oneself to achieve great things. Li Shimin cannot do without Fang Qiao and Du Ruhui.

So he asked Yuchi Gong to bring his sword to visit the two people.

Now is the time to take sides.

Despite Li Yuan's order, Fang Qiao and Du Ruhui were not allowed to approach Li Shimin.

But now that Li Shimin wants the two of them back, he has made it clear that he intends not to have a showdown.

If the two of them refuse, no matter what the outcome is for Li Shimin, neither of them will survive!

The result is that there is no need to think too much.

Yuchi Gong also knew what choice the two of them would make, so he was prepared early.

He came to Qin Tian's medical clinic to borrow clothes in order to hide his identity from others.

Getting these two out of their home was no simple matter.

Yuchi Gong had already disguised himself because there were guards around their homes.

If people notice that he is visiting, these people will definitely go back and report it, and then the matter will be exposed!

As Yu Chigong expected, the two men agreed directly without any hesitation.

So Yuchi Gong disguised them and put on the Taoist robes of Qintian Medical Center, so that they could be successfully brought out of their home.

Fang Qiao, Du Ruhui and Changsun Wuji went to the Prince's Mansion together, while Yuchi Gong took a detour from the path to the back door of the Prince's Mansion and entered the Prince's Mansion.

The third day of June in the ninth year of Wude.

Today there seemed to be rumors that the Taibai Venus appeared again. On Qin Tian's way back, even the people on the roadside seemed to be talking about it.

Others say that a jade statue was unearthed from the Prince of Qin's Mansion, which was lifelike, as if it were a real person.

Hearing the talk of the people on the roadside, Qin Tian's heart moved slightly.

The jade statue, one person tall... seemed to have an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

But he soon forgot about it.

He stayed at Sun Simiao's place last night, and the two had a long chat.

Although he was the one explaining Sun Simiao's teachings most of the time, Sun Simiao's way of thinking also inspired Qin Tian a lot.

When practicing, as a time traveler, Qin Tian's thinking was a little too rational.

This resulted in him sometimes not being able to grasp certain choices that required spiritual awareness to be made.

But during the exchange with Sun Simiao, his thinking about the five elements of heaven and earth also brought great inspiration to Qin Tian.

It is said that when three people walk together, I must be my teacher. Confucius really did not deceive me.

On the way back, Qin Tian had been thinking about cultivation, and even vaguely felt that he had become a little more diligent in Taoism.

And just today, Li Shimin went to the palace to sue Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji for causing filth in the harem!

The fourth day of June in the ninth year of Wude.

Qin Tian stood at the entrance of the street where he lived, waiting for Sun Simiao's arrival.

It was too much trouble to travel back and forth every time, so Sun Simiao decided to come to Chang'an City to find a home and open a medical clinic.

He very much agreed with Qin Tian's opinions on practicing medicine.

Only practice can reveal the truth.

There is no future if we keep working behind closed doors.

Staying in the mountains studying medical books for a lifetime is not as good as going out to treat a few patients.

Only by seeing more patients can we have a better and more understanding of medical skills.

Qin Tian valued Sun Simiao very much. He believed that Sun Simiao was the best person to promote his doctrine.

To a certain extent, Sun Simiao can be regarded as half of Qin Tian's disciple!

Just waiting and waiting, Qin Tian could not wait for Sun Simiao's arrival.

He began to wonder if Sun Simiao had an accident along the way.

If the disciple he finally found was lost like this, Qin Tian would be really depressed.

After thinking about it, Qin Tian decided to go out of the city to have a look.

Qin Tian used a spell to calculate Sun Simiao's position and found that he was not in any danger, but seemed to be stopped by something, so he felt relieved.
