Chapter 585: Wang Junkuo and the Turks
"What! Wang Junkuo was killed by the Turks? And the Turks still haven't returned the corpses? â
Li Shimin almost jumped up from the dragon chair.
Because of this news, it can be described as very shocking.
One is that he is dead, and the other is that he is really in the hands of the Turks.
And the person who reported at the bottom was Cheng Yanjin.
At this time, Li Chengqian was also on the spot, and of course, civil and military officials were also indispensable.
When Cheng Biting Jin finished his report, Li Chengqian took a closer look around, and some of them had relaxed expressions, these people were the people who interceded with Wang Junkuo yesterday, and Liu Hongji was naturally indispensable among them.
Why? Because Wang Junkuo's death is a great thing for them, even if they have a conspiracy, then they will go to hell with Wang Junkuo's death from the moment he dies.
Crowd straight:
Wang Junkuo really deserves it, he deserves to die!
Wang Junkuo must have been killed because he was going to defect to the Turks!
Even God couldn't stand it, and he finally died.
âĶâĶ
These people began to guess everything about Wang Junkuo, not to mention, Wang Junkuo really wanted to take refuge in the Turks, this person was two-faced and could change at any time.
Why is it Turkic, it is also because of the proximity, if it is Tibet, I am afraid that it will be intercepted before it comes out of the Tang Dynasty. But he can't go to Qin Qiong, although it's safe there! So being killed is also a matter of high probability.
Liu Hongji sneered, and then came out and said: "That Turkic is really hateful, Your Majesty, this corpse has to be taken by our Tang Dynasty!" Hang it on the castle tower as a sign of punishment! â
This guy didn't know what An's heart was, and he actually instigated Li Shimin to take the body back. But you know, that comes at a cost, and it's huge! For the sake of a traitor, clearly inappropriate.
At the same time, the same is true of those who are in his faction.
"Wang Junkuo, as a Tang Dynastyman, can't let the Turks get his body!"
Li Chengqian said: "No, at this time, the Turks will definitely use the corpse as a threat to get some benefits from it, and the ministers think that we don't have to rush to get his corpse, dragging it is, making them feel that Wang Junkuo's corpse is worthless." We will not pay a single soldier for Wang Junkuo! Finally, you can get it! â
Li Jing had been silent before, but this time he said: "What His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said is extremely true! That's what the ministers think! â
åæīŠåš says:
"If you don't ask for it, I'm afraid it will lose face for the Tang Dynasty!"
Cheng Yanjin said: "Hmph, Liu Hongji, you say so, how about you lead the troops to ask for it?" â
His words were still very effective, and when it came to leading troops to the Turks, Liu Hongji was directly dumbfounded.
"General Cheng said it so easily, knowing that my force is not good, he still wants me to go, why is this?"
"Liu Hongji, you are very easy to say! If you go to ask for Wang Junkuo, maybe you will have to lose some soldiers, and you will lose soldiers for the sake of a traitorous thief, is it valuable? It's worthless, and if you really want it back, then it's up to you! Your Majesty must be very happy! â
Cheng Yanjin said.
Liu Hongji was directly silent.
At this time, Li Chengqian said:
"Kui Guogong, when you were friendly with Li Xiaochang and Changsun Anye, you were involved in them because of their incident, this is a lesson, this king advises you, don't repeat the mistakes of the past. Don't ask about Wang Junkuo! â
Liu Hong is basically a hero of the Tang Dynasty, but the hero is only for Li Shimin, he has a great contribution to Li Shimin, and the history books naturally write him well.
For Li Chengqian, not necessarily.
Because Liu Hongji is against Li Chengqian everywhere, in Li Chengqian's opinion, he is a traitor.
In front of Li Shimin, Liu Hongji is a great hero, and he is a good minister.
Whether a person is loyal or not depends on which angle he stands on, and from whose perspective he sees the problem.
There are no absolutes!
Having said that, as long as Liu Hongji does a good job for the Tang Dynasty and doesn't make a mess for Li Chengqian, Li Chengqian will not do evil to him, I'm afraid that this guy won't care, then Li Chengqian has no choice but to get rid of it, because Li Chengqian will not let him go against him everywhere.
Many people then joined the discussion.
More than 80 percent of the officials are on Li Chengqian's side, and they have the same idea, and they are unwilling to beg people now.
If it is said that it is for the sake of great meritorious, even if it is at any cost, it must be returned.
But if it's for Wang Junkuo, it's a different matter.
But all this is not something they can determine, all this has to be nodded by Li Shimin. If Li Shimin wants to ask for it, then these people will ask for whatever they say.
So, everyone's eyes turned to Li Shimin.
Li Shimin heard the end from the beginning.
When he saw that the crowd was quiet, he said:
"I think what Gao Ming said is right, if we rush to ask for people, the Turks are afraid that they will sit on the ground and raise the price, and Wang Junkuo is not worth the price at all, so I think, wait! Tell the world that Wang Junkuo has committed a heinous crime because of rebellion, and he has been punished! â
In any case, this process of killing chickens and making an example of monkeys still has to be completed. It can also educate everyone and let everyone know that rebellion has no good end!
"Yes! Your Majesty! â
The ministers should be.
Li Shimin is still in a bad mood.
At this time, Li Chengqian also seemed to see it.
So he came out and said:
"Your Majesty! Erchen thinks that there are people who have rebelled three times twice, and education has an inseparable reason. Therefore, we must start with education to prevent future troubles! â
Li Shimin pondered, there must be a fundamental reason. Is it education? There is no way to know.
"What do you mean by that?"
Li Chengqian began to speak
"Starting from education, we can let our people have a sense of belonging, not only that, so that they can have a correct understanding, but also carry out patriotic education and so on."
The social function of education is to train talented people for the country's development and to serve the country's political and economic development.
Regarding education, Li Shimin also feels that it is very important.
So, he said, "I think it's very important, too! It's up to you. â
Li Shimin decided it directly, without discussion among the ministers.
It's not too late! If it can be avoided, why not prevent it?
"Yes! Your Majesty! â
Li Chengqian should be.
Everyone talked for a while, and suddenly, a soldier reported outside the main hall:
"Report! General Qin sent back news from the border! â
It was Qin Qiong who sent the news from the Turks, which made Li Shimin very worried.
"Come in! Say it quickly! â
At the same time, everyone also fixed their eyes on the outside of the main hall. Curious, what's next.
