Chapter 239 Tang Taizong·Li Shimin
On the canopy.

Chang'an, East Palace, Xiande Hall.

He is dressed in the uniform of the Sun and Moon Emperor, with twelve crowns on his head.

Li Shimin sat on the throne with a calm expression.

Looking at the neat and solemn ministers below.

……

[On the ninth day of August in 626 AD, the second emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin, Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, ascended the throne in the Xiande Hall of the East Palace. 】

[Sent Sikong and Wei Guogong Pei Ji to burn firewood in the southern suburbs to offer sacrifices to heaven and offer amnesty to the world. 】

……

{Now standing in front of you are the Tang Dynasty Taiwei, Situ, Shangshu Ling, Zhongshu Ling, Daxingtai Shangshuling of Shaanxi Province, Yizhou Daoxingtai Shangshuling, Yongzhou Mu, Liang The governor of the state, the left and right generals of Wuhou, the left and right generals of the Twelve Guards, the Shangzhu Kingdom, the King of Qin, General Tiance, Tian Khan, the leader of Asia, the strongest carbon-based organism in the seventh century, Emperor Taizongwen of the Tang Dynasty Li Shimin is also! }

{The house is too small to accommodate so many people (dog head)}

{One of the most powerful carbon-based organisms in the seventh century! }
{I want to argue! One of the most powerful carbon-based creatures from the seventh to ninth centuries, one of the latter is his descendant Xuanzong. This is the real watch of the sun, the posture of a dragon and a phoenix (dog head)}
{There is a joke. Faced with a traitor like Li Shimin, Li Tang must make great efforts to deal with him. }
{As long as the order from Zhongshu Ling Li Shimin passes through the province, it will be sent to Shangshu Ling Li Shimin for execution. }
{Then, if the rebels are in Kansai, they need to be sent to Yongzhou to order Li Shimin for execution. }
{If the rebel is not in Kansai, he needs to be handled by Li Shimin from Daxingtai on Shaanxi Province or Li Shimin from Daxingtai on Yizhou Road. }
{If Li Shimin resists arrest, Li Shimin, the general of the Twelve Guards, will need to send his troops to arrest him. }
{If you still can't defeat him, then he is a very powerful traitor. Faced with this situation, Li Tang has another way, which is to have the invincible general Li Shimin send troops to defeat him...}
{Standing in front of you is the ceiling of the Chinese emperor’s ability! And the military ceiling in the emperor! The man who was called Erfeng by later generations of fans (call)}
{Come on, come on! The hot man is finally here! }

{welcome! Throw flowers! Wuhu! }

……

Great Qin.

Ying Zheng suddenly felt bad.

What is the power of an emperor?
Putting it together with the military, it means that his ability as an emperor is not bad?

Look at this posthumous title with a text...

Could it be that he is both civil and military?

Since the general has no title, can he handle the government affairs beyond his military affairs?
arts……

He couldn't help but think of Ying Heng again...

A man who single-handedly continued the destiny of the Han Dynasty.

The son I have never met!
At last……

This right is so great and boundless.

What else is going through Li Yuan's mind?
……

Big man.

Liu Bang touched his chin thoughtfully.

Just look at the strong reaction of future generations, as if their house was ordered on fire.

It seems that it would be great for Li Shimin to become emperor.

but……

The rest is probably understandable.

What kind of argument does this Asian leader have with the strongest carbon-based creature in the seventh century?

Weird.

only……

Liu Bang looked at Li Shimin on the sky curtain thoughtfully.

If your merits are worthy of Emperor Taizong Wen, will your descendants follow your example?
……

The period of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty
Liu Heng, who closed his eyes and rested his mind, knocked on the desk unconsciously.

arts……

"That's fine..."

The lackluster sentence made Liu Qi couldn't help but glance at his father.

Liu Heng fell into deep thought.

Xuanwumen made a bad start, but it also made a good start.

Bad guy, the future succession of the Tang Dynasty will be a bloody curse.

Good news, this bloody storm will only be limited to a specific range.

It will not cause a cholera-like situation like the Rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms and the Rebellion of the Eight Kings.

The people will not be affected.

……

[The first thing after taking the throne is to set the tone. 】

[This tone is frugal and frugal. 】

[On August 13th, an edict was issued to "forbid the eagles and dogs in the garden, stop contributing from all directions, and listen to the officials to rule." 】

[Release all kinds of birds and beasts raised in the palace, and stop the rare and rare treasures that have been brought as tribute from various places. 】

[Release more than 3,000 maids from Yeting. 】

[Historical records: "The simple and solemn government decrees brought great joy to both China and foreign countries."]

[But just when Li Shimin wanted to let go of his ambitions, the Turks in the north moved south to knock on the door. 】

……

On the canopy.

Li Shimin, wearing a bright yellow round collar robe and a black futou, stood alone at the head of a bridge.

In front of him were countless Turkic soldiers wearing fur boots.

The trampled smoke gradually swept across the sky.

Four large characters made of yellow sand hang high in the sky.

"Wei River Alliance"

……

[On August 626, AD, the Turks learned of the changes in the Xuanwu Gate of the Tang Dynasty and led an army of more than Turks to rush southward. 】

[Turk Jieli Khan and Tuli Khan invaded Jingzhou. 】

[On the 20th, martial arts were invaded and Chang'an was under martial law. 】

[On the 24th, they invaded Gaoling, only seventy miles away from Chang'an. 】

[Li Shimin immediately appointed Youwuhou General Yuchi Jingde as the commander-in-chief of the Jingzhou Road March and led the army to resist the Turks. In addition, Li Jing, the governor of Lingzhou, was urgently transferred back to the defense to support Chang'an. 】

[Yuchi Jingde fought with the Turks in Jingyang, and defeated the Turks' vanguard, beheading more than a thousand people, but his limited troops could not stop the advance of the Turks' army. 】

[On the 28th, Jieli Khan's army arrived at the Weishui Bridge outside Chang'an City. 】

……

Great Sui.

The Turks came so quickly?
Why did the Turks come so quickly?

Yang Jian frowned.

Although Chang'an is located in the Guanzhong Plain, it is surrounded by mountains and has tight defensive passes on all sides.

If the Turks want to invade Chang'an via Jingzhou, they must pass through the dangerous Xiao Pass.

It is impossible for such a dangerous place not to be defended by generals!
And even if there were not many soldiers stationed there, it would never be possible for them to enter Chang'an so unimpeded. The only possibility is...

The guard has a different intention!
"Here comes his first problem."

Yang Jian immediately judged that this guard should be related to the prince and others.

The old department?
……

Tang Dynasty and Emperor Gaozu's period
There was silence in the hall.

None of the four father and son spoke.

Li Yuan was expressionless, Li Jiancheng was frowning, Li Shimin was calm, and Li Yuanji was glaring.

"Aye! If you don't get rid of this traitor, why are you waiting?!"

Li Yuanji couldn't help but stepped forward and wanted to take action, but was stopped by Li Jiancheng.

Although he also understood a little bit of Aye's thoughts, Aye was not dead yet, and it was not Li Yuanji's turn to decide what was right or wrong.

Li Yuan, on the other hand, glanced at a few people indifferently. Seeing that Li Shimin was still as calm as usual, he looked at the sky again.

what to do……

Let's first see how this son is doing as emperor and then we can decide what to do.

……

On the canopy.

Li Shimin looked at the Turkic envoy standing upright below with an unkind look.

Seeing the Turkic envoy bowing slightly, he raised his head and looked at Li Shimin and said:

"Today, my lords Jieli and Tuli, the two Khans, have arrived outside Chang'an City with a million-strong army..."

Before he could finish speaking, Li Shimin raised his hand to stop him and said in a deep voice:

"The year before last, I met with the Khan and agreed to make peace and get married. I also gave him money and silk as a gift. It was a waste of money."

"But your Khan destroyed the alliance and led his troops deep into our country!"

"Don't you feel ashamed in front of me?"

Without waiting for the Turkic envoy to reply, Li Shimin pointed at him and said angrily:
"Although you are a Rongdi and have no education, you should still have a benevolent heart."

"How can we completely forget the blessings of our great country!"

"Boasting about your military strength? Then I will kill you first today!"

……

[On the 29th, the Turkic envoy Zhi lost his mind and went to see Li Shimin. He believed that the Turks were powerful and threatened Li Shimin with words. 】

[If he turns around, he will be beheaded by Li Shimin. 】

[The ministers Xiao Yu, Feng Deyi and other ministers present quickly came out to ask for forgiveness for the crime of disrespect for Zhi's inability to think and let him return on the grounds that he was not going to be killed. 】

[Li Shimin agreed not to kill Zhi Si Lian, but was not allowed to let him go. He ordered the Khan's envoy to be imprisoned on the spot to await his punishment. 】

……

Ji Han.

Liu Bei stroked his beard and sighed at Yuchi Jingde's bravery. Then he smiled at Zhuge Liang and said:

"This group of Turkic cavalry attacked Jingzhou. After looting, they did not return but continued to go deep into martial arts."

"It can be said that the target is Li Shimin."

Zhuge Liang nodded.

"The Turks are so arrogant but still stand still. They probably don't want to go to war with the Tang Dynasty but just want to extort property."

Liu Bei smiled, poured a glass of wine, and said:
"Li Shimin must be able to fight, otherwise..."

"Extortion has turned into robbery!"

Zhuge Liang chuckled.

"After all, it's the capital of a country, so it can't be robbed so easily."

Liu Bei drank a glass of wine and wiped his mouth.

"That's right. The emperors in the Southern and Northern Dynasties who had no limits knew how to guard their own territory."

"Besides, if the emperor is unreliable, why are there still ministers?"

……

[After imprisoning Zhi Fengsi Li, Li Shimin rushed to Weishui in person and had a face-to-face conversation with Jieli Khan. 】

[Because there were no extra personnel present around the two of them according to the agreement, no one knew what Li Shimin and Jie Li talked about. 】

[The only thing they know is that they witnessed a miracle. 】

[After Li Shimin returned that day, Jieli Khan sent an envoy again to ask for peace. 】

[On August 30, Li Shimin came to the bridge on the Wei River again, and he and Jieli Khan killed the white horse to swear an alliance with heaven, and then the Turks retreated. 】

……

Late Han Dynasty.

Cao Cao, with his eyelids drooping, instantly saw Li Shimin's thoughts clearly.

Judging from the character of Li Shimin shown in the sky, it is nonsense to say that he is afraid of Turks.

It is even more nonsense for you to say that he cannot defeat the Turks.

But he just used a very shameful way to negotiate peace with his covenant.

The alliance under the city...

The reason is simply that he has been in power for a long time, the country is not safe, the people are not rich, and they do not have the strength to fight the Turks decisively.

His top priority is to rest with the people and accumulate strength.

Use money to paralyze powerful enemies, strengthen yourself, and then wait for an opportunity to defeat the enemy in one fell swoop!
"Wait until the time comes... Okay..."

I can't help but think of Cao Pi's series of ridiculous measures to attack Jiangdong in the future.

"Why isn't he Gu's son?"

"If Zixiu is still here..."

……

On the canopy.

Standing on the city wall of Chang'an, looking at the Turkic army in the distance.

The sky full of dust could not hide the coldness in Li Shimin's eyes.

"Turk..."

"Jieli..."

……

 Thanks to "Shinto Gate" for the big reward!

  Looking back now, Li Yuan, ah Li Yuan...you said you, the founding emperor, were so frustrated!
