If he didn't have the same housekeeping skills, why did he survive all the way in the troubled times at the end of the Sui Dynasty, and even took the throne and became the supreme person?

In the Qinling Mountains, shortly after Li Jing shot down the tiger.

In front of the palace palace, Li Shimin shot through two targets with an arrow, and the arrow was nailed to the middle of the second target, but it was not half entered.

This hand made the generals cheer in unison, but the faces of the ministers who were temporarily called to visit were not very good-looking.

Today, the emperor suddenly changed the military department Shangshu to Li Xiaogong, and after retiring from the dynasty, he performed an archery performance in front of the Lizheng Palace, and the intention was obvious.

That is to improve the status of the generals.

The struggle between civil and military forces has been unavoidable within the imperial court since ancient times.

The three provinces and six ministries were originally the territory of Wenchen, but Li Xiaogong's strong insertion allowed the military to gain a place in the pure land of administration, how can this make them feel at ease?

Handing over the black wooden bow in his hand to the guards in front of the palace, Li Shimin sighed with emotion: "I am still deserted in the end, I used to shoot arrows, and this arrow passed through the target, and the castration will not be reduced too much, but now it has the potential to fall." It can be seen that the literature is ridiculous, and the martial arts are wasted. All the Qing family, don't be as slack as me! Although it is safe today, the shame of the old Turkic Linjing is still there. Gather the forbidden army, I will teach them archery! ”

No one knew what the emperor's idea was to play this hand, and when a team of the forbidden army was called to the front and back of the palace, Li Shimin really taught shooting skills in public. He also ordered men to prepare bows and arrows, horizontal knives, and cloth on one side, and to reward him if he had a deep grasp and learned quickly.

Although I don't know what kind of medicine the emperor sells in the gourd today, but seeing the emperor shuttling between the arrow targets, and even helping the soldiers to pull out the arrows with his own hands, it is very risky, Wang Lin, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, admonished: "Your Majesty is in the meantime, in case there is a madman stealing it, out of inadvertence, it is not so important to be reunited." ”

couldn't stand this weird atmosphere, seeing that Wang Lin stood up to admonish, and a bunch of officials who were not big or small came out to admonish. In particular, the imperial historian almost poured out of the nest.

At this time, you can see the gap in IQ, whether it is Fang Xuanling or Du Ruhui, they are all bodhisattvas. Even Wei Zheng, the imperial historian, was silent and honestly cooperated with the emperor's performance.

Seeing that the fish was hooked, Li Shimin took the arrow, walked a few steps forward to Wang Lin, and threw the arrow in the ground: "Emperor Qin used the Great Wall to defend against foreign enemies, but the foundation of the world is still precarious. After thinking about it, I decided to take people's hearts as the Great Wall. I treat these soldiers like brothers and sisters, how can they treat me like confidants. Wang Lin, do you want you to take care of my work? ”

The emperor threw arrows in front of him, which was already very angry, and Wang Lin, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, who had just been in office for more than three days, hurriedly bowed to the ground: "The minister is terrified! ”

The people who had just advised the emperor also hurriedly bowed to the ground: "The minister is afraid! ”

It was only at this time that Wang Lin realized that he had become a rafter by accident.

It's just that I don't know if the emperor saw Wenchen's jealousy and deliberately suppressed it, or....

Just when the ministers kneeling on the ground were panicked and at a loss, Wei Zheng, who had been watching from the wall, stood up.

The officials who belonged to the Yushitai were secretly relieved when they saw their boss come out.

Although the emperor usurped power and seized the throne, he had a strict control over the court situation, and his power was like the sky.

But.

The last thing the emperor should do is to promote Wei Zheng, the confidant of the old prince, to the imperial historian.

Other courtiers may be afraid of the emperor's authority, but Wei Zheng will not, this old bastard's neck is made of iron, even if the steel knife is on the head, he can fight with the emperor on the mouth for two more rounds.

Wei Zheng bowed and said: "Your Majesty's statement that the people's hearts are the Great Wall is really exquisite, and these people who don't understand Your Majesty's painstaking efforts should indeed reflect on it." It's just that between His Majesty's sideways arrow targets, it's still too dangerous. Those who are courtiers are worried about the safety of His Majesty, which is loyalty. They are considered to be unduly punished, and may Your Majesty pardon them for their transgressions. ”

Looking at the serious Wei Zheng, Li Shimin sighed. Although I regret that I got such a thing into the court in the first place, in terms of persuasion, Wei Zheng really did not mix a little selfishness, and his words and deeds were not based on the people. Such a minister is rare in the world.

Today's matter, for Wei Zheng's sake, can only be like this for the time being.

"Get up, Wei Zheng is right, I shouldn't punish the righteous. Between the sideways arrow targets of the Son of Heaven, it is really not suitable, so change it to a special archer to teach. Retreat from the dynasty, Fang Xuanling, and the eldest grandson Wuji came with me. ”

Seeing that the incident was finally over, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and reflected on the inner meaning of the emperor's actions as they walked outward.

With two confidants, Li Shimin did not enter the harem, but returned to the apse of the Lizheng Palace.

If it wasn't for the court meeting, the three of them got along more casually, and without Li Shimin greeting them, Fang Xuanling and the eldest grandson Wuji found a place to sit down.

"Your Majesty, what you did today, but.... Think the five surnames are too rampant? ”

Because it is an old friend, the eldest grandson Wuji understands the emperor's mind very well. If you just want to suppress Wenchen, you can't engage in such a big battle. It is enough to transfer Li Xiaogong to the secretary of the military department.

First archery, Wang Lin stood up and threw arrows to the ground, the remarks of the Great Wall of People's Hearts, and the citation of Qin Shi Huang's examples, which can easily be reminiscent of the five surnames.

In particular, this Wang Lin, who was originally a direct member of the Taiyuan Wang family, was able to leap up to become a waiter of the Ministry of Rites after being promoted. And the sudden serious illness resignation of the former waiter of the Ministry of Rites is too coincidental no matter how you look at it.

Picking up the performance of Baoju Wang Lin as the servant of the Ministry of Rites, Li Shimin sighed: "When the Turks went south last year, it was a great opportunity for the five surnames to put pressure on the imperial court. Fortunately, the prince's Hu Lai not only frightened the Turks, but also preserved the last bit of our face. Otherwise, hehe....

But I didn't expect that they hadn't given up yet. Now he is openly forcing people to abdicate and replace him. The waiter of the Ministry of Rites, the official position of Zheng Sanpin, actually attracted so many people to recommend. Fang Qing, if I'm not mistaken, there are still you in this list! ”

Fang Xuanling hurriedly stood up: "The minister is afraid, it's just that the insider is originally from the Fan Yang Lu clan, and he is guided by the clan, and the minister is afraid of the inside, this...."

Looking at Fang Xuanling's helpless appearance, Li Shimin smiled. In the hall, the book order and the prime minister, this habit of fear of guilt has become a big stain on Fang Xuanling.

"Aiqing, don't panic, I don't mean to blame you. I still know how tempting it is for traditional literati to have a woman with five surnames as a wife. It's just that the five surnames regard the court as nothing and come wantonly. Dare to plan the squire of the Ministry of Rites today, and dare to plan the throne tomorrow. We have to find a way to suppress them! ”
