13,Chapter 2 The Transformation in Jinyang (8)
Li Shimin got such news, he jumped up with joy, he is really a man who likes to seek excitement, this is a risky thing, but his mind is full of thinking about how to get it done, not afraid of not being afraid of not succeeding, this may be the determination and courage that a great man should have!
Li Shimin thought that with the backing of his father, he would succeed in most of the matter, and hurriedly asked Liu Wenjing to make suggestions.
Liu Wenjing saw Li Yuan, didn't care about him throwing him in prison, and went straight to the point and said: "Forged an edict, in the name of the imperial court's preparation for the four expeditions to Goryeo, ordered young men over the age of 20 and under the age of 50 in the four counties of Taiyuan, Xihe, Yanmen, and Mayi to enlist in the army, so as to expand the armed forces and prepare to raise troops. At the same time, it panics their hearts and increases their anti-Sui sentiments. ”
- Looks like a super note!
Li Yuan was almost kidnapped and dragged onto the "thief ship" of the rebel Sui, thinking that his family had not yet arrived, he was still a little hesitant.
Li Shimin said: "The family has already set off, and they can arrive on the same day, and it is urgent to deploy as soon as possible!" ”
It seems that Li Shimin has already secretly notified his family to come to Taiyuan, and he has acted carefully.
Li Yuan was really reluctant to get on this "thief ship"! He was also worried: "I'm worried that there are not enough troops and I can't make trouble!" ”
Li Shimin whispered a few words to him, and Li Yuan nodded thoughtfully, "Since you have already planned, act according to this plan." Still, his face looked very difficult.
Li Yuan said to Wang Wei and Gao Junya, who were sent by Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty to monitor him: "Now that Liu Wuzhou occupies the Fenyang Palace, the Turks are coming again, and the troops are small, so we should recruit troops to serve the country. ”
The two nodded yes again and again, so Li Yuan openly ordered Liu Hongji, a native of Chiyang, and Sun Shunde, the eldest son of Luoyang, to cooperate with Liu Wenjing to recruit troops.
When Wang Wei and Gao Junya heard that Liu Hongji and the eldest grandson Shunde were going to participate in the recruitment, they couldn't help but be suspicious, knowing their identities and behaviors made them feel very wrong.
Liu Hongji has been the right guard, and the eldest grandson Shunde has also been the right guard, which was the personal guard of Emperor Yang of Sui, but because Emperor Yang of Sui went to Liaodong, he was unwilling to accompany him, so he fled halfway, died in Jinyang, and lived in a foreign land. Moreover, Li Shimin's wife is the daughter of the late Xiaowei general Changsun Sheng, and Changsun Shunde is the younger brother of Changsun Sheng, helping Li Yuan recruit troops, which is extra suspicious. Moreover, Li Yuan treated them very favorably, and the soldiers recruited were all led by them. Wang Wei took these thousand years of doubts, and asked Wu Zetian, who later became a famous woman, his father Wu Shitong, what did Li Yuan mean by this arrangement?
Wang Wei said: "Hongji, Shunde is a fugitive from the imperial court, let them lead the troops, it is really unruly, Tang Gong should not use these two people, for his own sake, he has to remove them from his position quickly." ”
Wu Shi Tong is Li Yuan's confidant, so it is not good to make too many comments for the time being, but he just said: "Both of them are Tang Gong's disciples, if you want to oppose them to lead troops, Tang Gong will definitely be unhappy......"
Wang Wei didn't say anything anymore, turned around and hurriedly consulted with Gao Junya, and the result of the discussion was to kill Li Yuan.
Emperor Yang of Sui asked the two of them to spy on Li Yuan, Li Yuan looked restless at the moment, and decisively killed him so that he could go to Emperor Yang of Sui to receive a reward, so killing Li Yuan would greatly benefit them.
At that time, there was a great drought in Jinyang, and Li Yuan wanted to go to the Jin Temple to pray for rain and fast for many days. Most of the soldiers were under Li Yuan's command, so they secretly looked for Liu Shilong, the head of Jinyang Township, gathered the township soldiers, and ambushed them in the ancestral hall when they saw the opportunity to assassinate Li Yuan.
