In the last years of the Sui Dynasty, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty's arrogance and lasciviousness, and reckless military force caused chaos in the world and the people were in dire straits. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
In the first year of Yining, Li Yuan served as the Taiyuan Guard, and became friendly with Liu Wenjing, the commander of Jinyang.
Liu Wenjing saw that Li Yuan was extraordinary and had the ambition of a dragon and a tiger, so he decided that this was a good lord who could be served. He felt that he had finally found someone who could make the most of his ambitions and live up to what he had learned in life.
Soon, Liu Wenjing and his friend Pei Lin instigated Li Yuan to rebel.
After several years of conquest, Liu Wenjing finally helped Li Yuan ascend to the throne.
However, not long after, Liu Wenjing was killed in the name of rebellion, and all his family property was confiscated.
In this seemingly ordinary history without any fabrication, there is an incomparably huge conspiracy hidden. This conspiracy has changed all the history of our Celestial Empire since the Tang Dynasty, and this is also a secret that Ling'er has always guarded.
The cause of Liu Wenjing's death recorded in history was rebellion, and the specific reason was that after Liu Wenjing and his brother Liu Wenqi entered the banquet together, they got drunk and spoke wildly, drew their saber, split the hall pillars, and shouted to kill Pei Lian.
It turned out that Liu Wenjing had always felt that Tang Gaozu Li Yuan was unfair to him, because at that time, Pei Lin and he jointly assisted Li Yuan to ascend the throne, and his credit was far more important than Pei Lian, but his reward and official rank were much lower than Pei Lian.
Such an explanation seems to satisfy all the requirements, and he was plotted in the name of rebellion because of jealousy, but after erasing the fat on the face of the clown of history, will the truth of the matter really be so simple?
The immediate cause of the incident has to start from that night more than a thousand years ago, before that night, Liu Wenjing seemed to have long expected what might happen.
So he gathered his family and arranged the aftermath in advance.
During that time, there were many monsters in Liu Wenjing's house, and when he saw such a situation, his brother Liu Wenqi summoned a wizard and asked him to wear a sword at night to catch demons in Liu Wenjing's house.
At this time, Liu Wenqi had a concubine who had fallen out of favor and informed her brother of the matter, so the matter was leaked, and Tang Gaozu Li Yuan immediately ordered Liu Wenjing to be arrested after knowing about it.
In the process of interrogating Liu Wenjing, Prince Li Shimin felt that although Liu Wenjing's strategic talent was indeed above everyone, he was insidious by nature, good at suspicion, and too suspicious, so he confirmed the fact of his rebellion, and finally Liu Wenjing was given death by Tang Gaozu's decree.
Is all this really what history portrays?
Liu Wenjing is a good military general who can fight well, but he is also a political veteran, in addition, Liu Wenjing has not learned the Four Books and Five Classics since he was a child, but the Book of Changes.
At best, the Book of Changes is just a miscellaneous book that accumulates the wisdom of the ancients, but at worst, it contains all the wisdom of the world, and even all books can find their source in this book.
For Liu Wenjing, he knows what he has to go through, and he also knows his results, perhaps it is more appropriate to call his fate fate.
After Li Yuan ascended the throne, he quietly edicted Liu Wenjing into the palace in the middle of the night.
Looking at the prosperous and beautiful palace, Li Yuan said with a lonely expression that the only one who knows my troubles is Zhaoren.
Liu Wenjing, as a political old fritter, immediately understood what Li Yuan meant by this.
All this can be traced back to why Li Yuan was able to rise up and become the emperor.
When Li Yuan first met Liu Wenjing, Li Yuan was just a worthless Taishou, and there was a reason why Liu Wenjing worked hard for Li Yuan.
Of course, this reason is not that he studied the "Book of Changes" and then saw Li Yuan sleeping with a nine-inch oolong coiled on his body, nor that he calculated that Li Yuan had the emperor's life.
The real reason is that he knows a secret of Li Yuan.
When Li Yuan did not become the emperor, he had already murdered Liu Wenjing. The reason why he didn't kill him at that time was that Li Yuan knew that he only had this secret, and he had to be there to win the world.
However, after sitting on the dragon chair, Li Yuan was no longer the hot-blooded man he was back then, and he knew very well to Liu Wenjing that it was definitely impossible to rebel.
However, Li Yuan knew very well the reason why he was able to ascend to the throne, he wanted to keep that secret and pass it on from generation to generation.
If you want to keep that secret, you have to die.
Looking at the splendor of the palace in front of him, Li Yuan was very distressed.
He can't die, he must not die.
From a small Taishou to wandering around and working hard, he finally won the country and now has the position of overlooking all living beings in the world, how can he die so easily?
After Li Yuan said that sentence to himself, Liu Wenjing knew what Li Yuan meant.
This day is still here, Li Yuan, Li Yuan, you still haven't resisted the temptation of the throne, you still chose to kick me into the abyss, since that's the case, I can't say anything more.
Didn't he die for you? What are you afraid of?
Looking at the familiar figure, Liu Wenjing knelt down angrily, stood up and left resolutely after kowtowing to the last head.
Later, there was the case of wizarding practices.
What is ridiculous is that with Liu Wenjing's familiarity with the Book of Changes, how could he believe that a wizard can catch such a thing?
All this, a very perfect scam.
It has deceived the world and blinded the real truth.
This scam Li Yuan knows, Liu Wenjing knows, and Qin King Li Shimin knows that this is a game between smart people, they take what they need, and even Liu Wenjing is not without taking advantage.
Because Liu Wenjing is not really dead, or he is not the kind of death we understand.
After Tang Gaozu ordered Liu Wenjing to be killed, a team secretly set off from Kyoto and headed straight to the southwest.
The killed Liu Wenjing was just a stand-in, and the real Liu Wenjing had already embarked on the journey to Miaojiang at this time.
This funeral procession set off from Kyoto and traveled for several months before arriving in an isolated mountain in Miaojiang.
Immediately afterwards, Liu Wenjing took everyone into the cemetery that had already been completed. After sealing off the entire cemetery, Liu Wenjing ordered all the craftsmen and other soldiers to be killed.
Those henchmen who followed him also drank their own swords and died.
After seeing that everyone was dead, Liu Wenjing calmed down and entered the most complex and core place in the cemetery.
The sarcophagus, the golden silk nanmu coffin, the jade clothes worn on the body, a lot of them lay quietly in front of Zhong Shao's eyes.
After listening to the secret that Ling'er told him, his whole person seemed to have fallen into an ice cave, if all this was true, it was likely that the jade figurine lying in the golden silk nanmu coffin in front of him was Liu Wenjing's corpse! (To be continued.) )
