76,Chapter 13: The Final of Powers (1)
Wang Shichong abolished Yang Tong, the imperial lord of the Sui family, climbed on the dragon chair and sat on it, proud of the world, and when he was crooked, his own shortcomings were exposed, which made others very unaccustomed to him, and he deviated from morality, causing internal divisions, and the scene was very "pathetic".
Since Wang Shichong killed the separatist boss Li Mi, he has been extremely inflated, and for a while he has become the perfect pattern of "three-legged support" in the semifinals of power with Li Yuan in Chang'an and Dou Jiande in Hebei. With Wang Shichong's current strength, with a little effort, see the situation clearly, see yourself clearly, and see the people around him clearly, it is very likely to become a power champion and dominate the world.
But Wang Shichong couldn't see himself clearly, he did some things that distrusted the world, in order to win talents, he made a lot of promises, and he didn't give them one thing, destroying his reputation, so that Cheng Yanjin and Qin Qiong, who had two brushes, complained to him constantly behind his back, thinking that he was a funny clown, and felt that it was not worth following him.
Cheng Yanjin really didn't like Wang Shichong, so he pouted at Qin Qiong and said: "Wang Shichong, this guy, talks a lot and talks nonsense, like an old witch." With his appearance, if you want to seize the world, it's a dream, we don't want to have a good life with him, we think about our own way out, let's find another way! ”
Qin Qiong thought deeply for a while, and said, "Let's think about it, we should go there." ”
The court is not used to Wang Shichong, but they are not the only ones, Pei Renji, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and his son Pei Xingyan, the general of Zuofu, originally belonged to the Sui Dynasty and surrendered to Li Mi in defeat. After Li Mi was killed by Wang Shichong, he followed Wang Shichong with all his heart, seeing that Wang Shichong had imprisoned Yang Tong, the lord of the emperor, and was still sincerely attached to the father and son of the Sui Dynasty, so he discussed with dozens of people such as Shangshu Zuo Chengyu Wen Rutong, who was in love with the Sui family, to kill Wang Shichong and once again support Yang Dong as the emperor.
The world is unpredictable, their luck is not very good, the matter is leaked, they are all killed, Wang Shichong is mad and exterminated their three clans.
Then, Wang Shichong decided to kill Yang Tong in order to cut off the idea of restoration.
- It's really nice to pay attention to it, and you know how to destroy it.
Wang Shichong sent his nephew Wang Xingben (not the Wang Xingben of the Sui family) to kill the emperor and give him the title of Emperor Gong. The generals of Emperor Gong of Sui, in order to save their lives, all surrendered to Wang Shichong.
Then, that is, in October of the second year of Wude (619), Wang Shichong saw that he had killed Emperor Xiao, and when he was full and had nothing to do, he began to expand his territory, so he led his men and horses to the east to capture the land, hit Huazhou, and then fought a big battle with Dou Jiande in Liyang, Dou Jiande was beaten and returned in defeat.
In November, Dou Jiande was angry and had to give Wang Shichong a little color, so he invaded Wang Shichong's Yinzhou, slaughtered and robbed local residents, and burned down Wang Shichong's granary, as revenge for being beaten by Wang Shichong in Liyang. After all, it is the local people who have suffered and made them have no good life!
In February of the third year of Wude (620), Wang Shichong's palace supervisor Dou Luda ran away with him and ran to the Tang Dynasty, which provoked his angry nerves and used torture to control the people around him.
If one of the family members escapes, the whole family of male and female teachers will be killed, and anyone in the family who denounces his family will be exempted from the crime.
