Daming Super Dimension Company, President Zhu Yuanzhang!

Chapter 76 Li Shimin’s proud achievements!

Li Shimin looked at Li Jiancheng and wanted to call him "big brother", but he shot him to death with his own hands.

Looking at Li Jiancheng's confused eyes, Li Yuan explained to him: "This is your brother."

Li Jiancheng was confused, "When did I have two younger brothers? No, I don't seem to understand?"

Li Yuan looked at Li Shimin and motioned for him to explain himself.

Li Shimin could only say: "Brother, I am indeed Li Shimin, but I am just the Li Shimin who came from more than ten years later."

Xiao Ran explained on the side: "My dear, Prince, you died later, so...you know, this time it was King Qin who had the jade stone. Through the jade stone, I brought Li Shimin here more than ten years later."

Li Jiancheng's eyes widened, "I, am I dead?"

He understood instantly and looked at Qin King Li Shimin, "Is it you? Is it you! You actually attacked your brother!"

To say that this matter did make Li Shimin feel uncomfortable, but wasn't it actually Li Jiancheng who made the move first?

Is it possible that only the state officials are allowed to set fires, but the people are not allowed to light lamps?
Did Li Shimin deserve to be killed?
If it were Li Shimin now, after all, he had already done everything, so even if Li Jiancheng blamed him, he wouldn't say anything.

But Qin King Li Shimin was different. Just now, his staff had advised him to kill Li Jiancheng, and he was still thinking about whether there was any other way.

Now hearing Li Jiancheng accuse himself, Qin King Li Shimin stood up instantly and said: "Brother! If you hadn't forced me, how could I have done this!"

"Have you forgotten that you ignored brotherhood first? I had no intention of competing with you, so I thought of retreating to Luoyang to express my attitude, but what about you?!"

"You are not willing to let me go. You and King Qi suddenly came to me for a drink. I thought we brothers could talk things over, but what did you do? You actually poisoned my wine! Are you going to Put me to death!"

As he spoke, King Qin Li Shimin couldn't help but cry: "At this time, have you ever thought that I am your brother?"

Li Jiancheng opened his mouth and punched the table in front of him as if to vent his anger.

"Hey!" A sigh filled with shame.

King Qin Li Shimin looked at Li Jiancheng and said: "Even if you take away everyone around me, I will never do anything to you because of this, but they are people who follow me in the war. How can I watch them die!"

"If I hadn't known that I really couldn't survive, I wouldn't have thought of doing anything to you."

Li Yuan looked at his two sons, thought for a while, and said, "These things happened in the past. Fortunately, the eldest son is still alive and has not reached the point of irreversibility."

With that said, Li Yuan looked at Xiao Ran again and asked: "Xiao Ran, didn't you say you were here to solve this problem today? Do you have any good ideas now?"

Xiao Ran looked at King Qin Li Shimin and Li Jiancheng and said, "Well, I can't get involved in the relationship between you brothers, but I still have something to say about the position of the prince."

Li Jiancheng was originally very ashamed because of what Qin King Li Shimin said, but when he heard Xiao Ran's words, Li Jiancheng changed his face and looked at Qin King Li Shimin, "Okay, so this is what you had in mind!"

Before King Qin Li Shimin could say anything, Li Yuan frowned and scolded: "Shut up!"

No matter how angry Li Jiancheng was, he could only keep his mouth shut.

Xiao Ran looked at Li Jiancheng and said, "His Royal Highness should be someone who cares about the people, right?"

"That's natural!" Li Jiancheng didn't hesitate at all. He had always been trained as a prince. How could he not care for the people? He was not a foolish king.

Xiao Ran said: "That's easy to handle. At that time, King Qin was the final winner and the one who ascended the throne, but did you know that he was the emperor known as the 'Khan of Heaven'! This was the willingness of the surrounding barbarians. From this we can know the tip of his iceberg.”

King Qin Li Shimin, Li Jiancheng and Li Yuan all looked at Li Shimin.

Li Shimin suddenly felt a little ashamed.

Xiao Ran understood how he felt. To be honest, what's the difference between this and having you perform on stage in front of relatives and friends during the Chinese New Year?

However, Li Shimin also felt a little proud, so he sat up straight and let them look at him.

Li Yuan looked at it and Li Shimin nodded happily, "Okay, okay! Not bad!"

King Qin Li Shimin also showed a smile, this is him in the future, what is the difference between this and praising him.

Li Jiancheng couldn't see him like this, so he said, "What does this have to do with you?"

King Qin Li Jiancheng pretended not to hear it, but continued to ask: "What happened next?"

Xiao Ran said: "The most famous thing is accepting remonstrance. This is not something you can do. At that time, Li Shimin took Emperor Sui Yang's refusal to remonstrate as a warning and the country would perish. After he came to the throne, he tried his best to seek advice. He expanded the power of the remonstrator. , and encouraged ministers to criticize his decisions and style."

"Wei Zhengting remonstrated more than 200 times and directly stated the emperor's faults in the court. In the early court, there were many situations that embarrassed Li Shimin and made him unable to step down. However, Li Shimin was never blamed for this."

"At most it makes him look embarrassed or something, it's just something innocuous."

King Qin Li Shimin looked proud, and Li Yuan also said with some surprise: "Such a magnanimity and magnanimity are indeed beyond the reach of ordinary people!"

Li Jiancheng's focus suddenly shifted for some reason. He just heard him say: "Is this Wei Zheng so talkative?"

With these words, he gained the attention of everyone present as he wished.

Li Jiancheng was also a little embarrassed. He coughed twice and pretended that those words were not his own.

Li Yuan glared at Li Jiancheng, then looked at Xiao Ran, smiled and said, "Xiao Ran, keep talking."

Xiao Ran nodded and said: "Li Shimin often takes the death of the Sui Dynasty as a warning, pays attention to exhorting himself to restrain his desires, and instructs his ministers not to stop admonishing for fear of being displeased by superiors, and to work hard to govern. In politics, he should forget about past mistakes, know people well, and follow his advice smoothly. He rectified the administration of officials; economically, he was frugal and cautious in his administration; he also worked hard to revive culture and education, which stabilized the turbulent situation in the late Sui Dynasty."

"Moreover, Li Shimin attached great importance to the cleanliness of official administration. He once ordered Fang Xuanling to redundant the province and sent 13 deposed ambassadors including Li Jing to inspect the country to inspect the conduct of the officials. He also personally selected local officials such as governors and governors, and wrote down their merits and demerits. On the screen in the palace, it serves as the basis for raising and lowering rewards and punishments.”

"In addition, it is stipulated that Beijing officials above the fifth rank take turns to stay in Zhongshu Province, so that they can meet with the court at any time and inquire about the sufferings of the people and the gains and losses of governance. All officials then encourage themselves to be honest and honest, which directly improves the efficiency of the government."

"Under Li Shimin's governance at that time, the people of the Zhenguan Dynasty really did not close their doors at night and did not pick up lost things."

Li Yuan did not express his opinion after hearing this, but looked at Li Jiancheng and asked, "Can you do this?"

Just when Li Jiancheng wanted to say that he could, Xiao Ran said: "Wei Zheng is the kind of person who can directly tell you that there is something wrong with you, the emperor, in front of so many ministers when he went to court, and he will not give you any face." Keep."

So Li Jiancheng shut up.

It's better to forget about being criticized in front of so many people. He looked at Li Shimin and suddenly felt that his victorious brother seemed to be living a bit miserable life.

Xiao Ran continued: "These are some political issues. Maybe you are not very interested, so let's talk about the wars you like to talk about."

"In the second year of Zhenguan, Liang Luoren from Shuofang killed Liang Shidu, the leader of the Xiazhou separatist forces, and surrendered to the Tang Dynasty. The Tang Dynasty unified the country; in the fourth year of Zhenguan, Li Shimin ordered Li Jing to go to the north of Saibei. The Tang army was dispatched by Li Jing and destroyed DTZ. As a result, Li Shimin was The countries in the Western Regions respect him as the 'Khan of Heaven'."

"In the eighth year of Zhenguan, Tuyuhun invaded the border. Li Shimin sent Li Jing, Hou Junji, Li Daozong and others to attack. The following year, Tuyuhun Fuyun Khan fled into the desert and was later killed by his countrymen. Li Shimin established another king of Tuyuhun; in the thirteenth year of Zhenguan, Gaochang Wang Qu Wentai paid tribute to the Western Regions, so he ordered Hou Junji, Xue Wanche and others to lead troops to attack Gaochang. The following year, Qu Wentai died of illness and his son Qu Zhisheng succeeded to the throne and surrendered to the Tang Dynasty."

"At this point, all countries in the Western Regions have come to Chang'an to pay tribute. This is the true coming of all nations to pay tribute!"

"In the 19th year of Zhenguan, Duomi Khan Bazhuo, the leader of Xueyantuo, began to fight against the Tang Dynasty army. The following year, after the Tang army counterattacked and defeated Bazhuo, Xueyantuo's vassal Huihe sent troops to kill him. Bazhuo's cousin Yite Don't lose Khan Dumozhi and surrender to the Tang army. At this point, Xue Yantuo is destroyed."

Xiao Ran looked at Li Yuan and said, "Such an achievement is rare throughout the ages!"

Li Yuan looked at Li Jiancheng and said, "You can't do it." Well, he didn't even ask this time.

Li Jiancheng also lowered his head. When it came to accepting remonstrance, he knew what Li Shimin did, so maybe he could bear it even if he gritted his teeth.

But in terms of military affairs, he admitted that he was indeed inferior to Li Shimin.

Xiao Ran said: "The most important Turks, Emperor Gaozu has also dealt with the Turks and knows their abilities best."

Li Yuan was speechless for a moment. In the beginning, in order to draw on the power of the Turks, he, like Wang Shichong and other local forces, paid tribute to the Turks. This was a shameful thing.

The most important thing is that despite this, DTZ continued to invade the interior. Jieli Khan and Tuli Khan even led troops to invade Guanzhong twice, attacking Pizhou and Wugong County, and even advancing into Chang'an.

Xiao Ran said: "The only one who can solve them is Li Shimin! Even if others know what Li Shimin did, they won't be able to do it. If different people do the same thing, the results will be different."

After all, soldiers are human beings, not programmed procedures.

Xiao Ran looked at Li Jiancheng and said, "If the world is stable and the borders are stable, and the Lord of Shoucheng needs to rest and recuperate, then His Highness the Crown Prince may be very suitable."

"But now that the world has just settled, other places are ready to take action. At this time, force is needed to deter."

Li Jiancheng looked at the King of Qin Li Shimin. The King of Qin Li Shimin did not move and just let him look at him.

After a long time, Li Jiancheng suddenly became discouraged and said, "I am not as good as him."

After saying that, he looked at Li Yuan and said, "Father, please take back your position as the crown prince."

Li Yuan looked at Li Jiancheng and said that before, he was more of a bystander to Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin, but now he had to intervene.

I used to think that neither of the two sons was inferior to the other. Li Jiancheng was good at civil affairs, while Li Shimin fought on the battlefield and made many meritorious deeds.

Didn't he never think about abolishing Li Shimin in order to consolidate Li Jiancheng's position, but Li Shimin's previous military exploits were not just for show. How could he let go of such an outstanding son?

What's more, Li Shimin didn't make any mistakes, but just because he was too good, he was going to be harmed to make way for others? There is no such truth.

This is also the reason why Li Jiancheng kept giving Li Shimin eye drops in front of Li Yuan.

However, after the eye drops were successful, Li Yuan did become dissatisfied with Li Shimin, but he did not take action.

Now seeing Li Jiancheng voluntarily giving up his seat, Li Yuan asked, "Do you really think so?"

After all, I was fighting for this position before, but now I just want to quit?

Li Jiancheng suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, showed a smile, and said, "Yes, this is what I think."

As he spoke, he pretended to be relaxed and said: "I still saved my life here."

In fact, it was just Li Jiancheng who figured it out when Li Yuan spoke. If Li Yuan really disagreed with him giving up the position of prince to Li Shimin, he would definitely say "nonsense" directly.

Since Li Yuan asked him if he was sure, it proved that Li Yuan also thought so.

And just by looking at the dragon robe on Li Shimin, he knew that he was a loser. Even if they didn't come over and persuade Li Yuan, he would still be a loser if they insisted on taking action.

But if he took the initiative to give up his position, not only would he gain a good reputation as someone who would give way to the worthy, but he would also be able to save his own life. Why not do it?

Even if he is no longer a prince, he is still a prince, and no one dares to say anything to him.

King Qin Li Shimin looked at Li Jiancheng and said, "Brother!"

Li Jiancheng saluted King Qin Li Shimin and said, "What happened before was my fault. I apologize to you here!"

King Qin Li Shimin quickly said: "Brother, you don't have to be like this!"

Li Shimin looked on, picking up the tea cup in front of him and taking a sip of tea with a smile.

It would be best to solve the problem peacefully like this.

Xiao Ran looked at Li Shimin and raised his eyebrows, "How about this? Is this a good result?"

Li Shimin nodded and said, "It couldn't be better."

Li Yuan watched the two brothers turn their hostility into friendship, and the sadness in his heart calmed down a lot.

Even if they are just chatting, at least they maintain a superficial relationship. Even if the relationship will not be very good in the future, at least no one's life will be in danger.

So Li Yuan looked at them and said: "In that case, I will issue an edict now. What else do you have to say?"

Of course, King Qin Li Shimin didn't. He got the position of prince without spending a single soldier. The most important thing is that he didn't have to kill his brother.

Li Jiancheng was able to get rid of the fratricide, but Li Shimin, the King of Qin, couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart. If he didn't do anything now, that would be the best result.

So he retreated from Shan Ruliu.

Li Jiancheng glanced at him and left.
