How can Hou Junji be hateless?

What he hates is not exile for thousands of miles, but Li Shimin's injustice. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

They are all old ministers who followed Li Shimin to fight the country, and they are all famous generals in the world who have made brilliant achievements, when Li Jing exterminated the Dong * Turkic arsonists and slaughtered the people, and after returning to the court, he just handed over the military power, and was offered high, and he was locked up in prison and exiled for thousands of miles after returning to the court.

The treatment is very different, especially the pressure of the monarchs of the Western Regions, and the Huanghuang Tang Dynasty is guilty of him because of the accusations of these barbarian small countries, Hou Junji feels that he has become an abandoned son in the hands of Li Shimin, and he gave up his loyal general who has followed him for many years for the sake of those barbarians.

With such unfair treatment, how could the sect marquis Junji have no hatred in his heart?

But what about hate? The minister is just a minister, the king is still the king, no matter how deep the hatred is, he can only choose to swallow his anger, and when facing Li Shimin, he still has to make an extremely remorseful and guilty appearance, and he still has to bow down to the ground to show his loyalty, and if he shows a little resentment, he may attract death.

East Palace.

Recently, there have been more guests in the East Palace, and the number is a little weird.

Every evening, when the city gate is about to close, there are always some people who meet the prince, they never go through the main gate, and Li Chengqian's henchmen and eunuchs enter the back court from the south gate of the East Palace.

There is a vast pond in the backyard of the East Palace, the water of the Qujiang River is filled with it, there is a pavilion and a water pavilion in the middle of the pond, every evening, Li Chengqian will gather some people to the pavilion in the center of the pond, arrange the wine and food, hang up the palace lamp, a group of people talk in the pavilion, chant poems and make endowments, follow the legacy of the Wei and Jin madmen, there is often the sound of laughter from the pavilion from the old distance, often all night up to the guest and the host are happy and dispersed.

In the eyes of outsiders, this is a very normal social behavior, Li Chengqian has recently been abnormal, and he has gradually put an end to women, leading three or five friends to gather in the pavilion, talking about the past and the present, obviously much stronger than indulging in wine all day long, in the eyes of Yu Zhining, a subordinate of the East Palace, and others, since Li Shimin moved the idea of Yi Chu, His Royal Highness the Prince changed his past in panic, and finally changed his ways and embarked on the right path, at least now he can no longer see His Royal Highness's decadent appearance of indulging in wine all day long, and talking about the past and the present in the pavilion of three or five friends, it is really a good phenomenon, There is a positive and progressive new atmosphere.

Therefore, regarding Li Chengqian's frequent summoning of his friends to gatherings in the East Palace, many subordinates of the East Palace, including Li Shimin, saw the eyeliner laid by them, and everyone was very pleased and even more happy to see it. And Li Chengqian did not disappoint everyone, he studied honestly during the day, Fang Xuanling, Kong Yingda, Cen Wenwen and other famous ministers and Confucians did their best to teach the prince knowledge, and at night invited three or five friends to chant poems and write poems, talking about the past and the present, so changed, even Li Shimin of Taiji Palace listened to the performance of the eyeliner, his face eased slightly, but he snorted angrily, but he never mentioned the matter of Yi Chu again.

In fact, if Li Chengqian really lives such a positive and progressive life, his current crisis and crumbling position are not irretrievable, and his biggest advantage is the identity of the eldest son, in this era of orderly growth and order, and extreme emphasis on the norm, the eldest son is the natural and legitimate heir, if it is not that the character and virtue are too unbearable, but if there is a little flaw, the world can endure it.

It is a pity that all this that Li Chengqian has done is just an appearance, and it is a drama that deceives the people of the world.

He did invite a lot of people into the pavilion in the backyard to talk about the past and the present, but the loud talk was only deliberately spread out for the people in the East Palace to hear, and most of the time the whispers were planning a thrilling and rebellious event.

It is also a good idea to choose a gazebo in the middle of the pond, which is surrounded by water, so there is no possibility of eavesdropping, which can ensure that secrets will not be passed on to the outside world. All irrelevant people were dismissed in the pavilion, leaving behind a group of ****** extremists, and everyone held Li Chengqian in the middle like a star and a moon, and in the middle of every word, a major event of conspiracy and rebellion gradually set up a framework in the planning of everyone, enriched flesh and blood, and truly became a successful plot to usurp the throne.

The people who participated in the gathering were all acquaintances of Li Chengqian, and whether they were good or bad, there were a few friends around them, some of whom were angry, and some of whom were not.

The first is Du He, in his thirties, with a high heart and a sparse talent, he is the second son of the famous Du Ruhui, the princess of Shangchengyang, who was named the captain of the horse, and the lord was given to the prince of Xiangyang County, and the official was appointed to the palace.

The so-called "AMTD Fengyu", the name sounds very stylish, a look at these four words reveals a strong and tall atmosphere, but its function is not as noble as the name, in fact, this official is the official in charge of horses, all the royal horses are under his control, from the emperor's travel honor guard horses, to the emperor's personal expedition of war horses, and then to various occasions used in various horses, are under his control, if you have to make an analogy, this Du Fengyu's status is roughly equivalent to the Monkey King once when Bi Ma Wen, a humble official, a proper career trough.

The second guest is named Zhao Jie, is the son of Li Shimin's sister Princess Changguang, and his father Zhao Cijing is one of the heroes who followed Li Yuan to fight against the Sui in the early days.

The third guest was an old acquaintance, Li Yuanchang, the king of Han. This guy has nothing to introduce except for the title of a prince, if you have to give a comment, there are only four words that are the most suitable, "a bad guy".

The main guests are these three royal relatives, all of whom are considered to be members of the Li family's royal family, and the other two guests are not from the royal family, one is Li Chengqian's henchman and guard, and there is a name that is quite similar to a non-mainstream network name, named Su Gan Chengji, and the other is named Li Anyan, who is a subordinate official of Li Jiancheng, the former hidden prince, and is now in charge of the Su Guard, serving as the general of Zuotun Wei.

The five guests became the backbone members of Li Chengqian's rebellion, three unscrupulous sons, plus a brave and unscrupulous samurai, and only one really weighty, Li Anyan, a lieutenant general in charge of part of the military power.

The night is as cool as water, the four eaves of the pavilion are hung high with the palace lamp, at this time it is gradually Mid-Autumn Festival, the cold wind in the night is a little cold, but the six people in the pavilion are unaware, they look solemn, and they come together to discuss this life-and-death matter.

"Zuo Tunwei has bought off three captains. A lieutenant general, the minister secretly met with them last night, and they have promised to die for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince......" Li Anyan lowered his voice and whispered like a mosquito.

Li Chengqian's eyes suddenly lit up, and they were very excited about the good news.

"How many soldiers and horses can these generals mobilize?" Li Chengqian tried to suppress his excitement and asked in a low voice.

Li Anyan hesitated for a moment and said: "About 3,000 soldiers and horses, but the Zuotunwei camp is in the western suburbs of Chang'an, how to make these 3,000 people enter the city is a big trouble, not to mention the one hundred and eight squares in Chang'an City, there are fang officials and military soldiers stationed in the city, even if you enter the city, only three thousand soldiers and horses, I am afraid it is still not enough, it is already difficult to deal with the guards in the city, if you attack the Taiji Palace, I am afraid there is no more spare strength!" ”

Li Chengqian's gaze dimmed unconsciously.

Rebellion by force is not easy to say, and if any detail is not well thought out, it will be the end of defeat and death. With only 3,000 soldiers and horses, to the hundreds of thousands of garrison troops around Chang'an City and in the city, they are as vulnerable as moths to fire.

Su Gan Chengji said slowly at this time: "Your Royal Highness, the prince left and right to lead the leader of the guard, the minister has also been tried, these people say that the prince belongs, but in fact they are all His Majesty's henchmen, it is not easy to buy, so far only said that the two captains have been moved, these two can instigate the general to set fire to the camp after the incident, and when the fire starts, they can take two thousand soldiers and horses in front of the Taiji Palace to meet with the Zuotun guards......"

Li Chengqian was still frowning, it was obvious that this little bit of soldiers and horses was not of much use at all, and once the incident happened, the garrison troops stationed inside and outside Chang'an City could quickly wipe them out within an hour.

Seeing Li Chengqian's sad face, Du He smiled softly and said: "Your Highness, don't worry, the minister thinks that if you want to do great things, you must say that you must move a founding minister to help, if he is willing to serve His Highness, this matter can be done." ”

Li Chengqian's body stiffened suddenly, and he said urgently: "Who is Qing talking about?" ”

Du He smiled: "Chen Guogong, Hou Junji." ”

Li Chengqian and the others opened their eyes and gasped.

Du He ignored everyone's strange gazes, and said to himself: "Hou Junji is a fierce and small human nature, he followed His Majesty to fight in the south and the north, and made countless achievements, and even more, three years ago, he led the army to conquer the Western Regions and destroyed the Gaochang Kingdom, which completely mastered the west of the Silk Road for the Tang Dynasty, and also shocked the 36 countries of the Western Regions that were about to move. Exiled for 3,000 miles, he only returned to Chang'an yesterday......"

"Your Royal Highness, with the character of Hou Junji, Your Majesty's disposition is undoubtedly a great shame for him, Hou Junji must have a monstrous hatred for His Majesty, and this person has a prestige in the army, Xuanwu Men has meritorious support, His Majesty once served as the general of his left and right guards, and the old department of the guards in Chang'an is like a cloud, which can be described as a call and a hundred responses, if His Royal Highness can say that this person can help, only he shouts, how many tens of millions? If His Highness can say that this person can help, why worry about the big thing? ”

Li Chengqian's eyes lit up, he rubbed his hands excitedly, and said with a smile: "If General Hou really has a grudge against his father, this person can indeed be wooed, and he can be allowed to be crowned the king and prince after the deed is completed, ruling the three provinces, and being a very popular minister, and the Hou family will always be blessed with heavenly grace for generations." ”

After a pause, Li Chengqian looked at Du He: "Gu and General Hou don't have much contact, who wants to say that he will vote for Gu?" ”

Du He said with a smile: "Your Highness, don't worry, the person who said Hou Junji is in your East Palace, this person's name is Helan Chushi, he is Hou Junji's son-in-law, and the official residence is Qianniu in the East Palace, so it is appropriate to let Helan Chushi go to Hou Junji." ”

**********************************************************

When the lobbyists persuaded Hou Junji to rebel, it seemed to be a very easy task for Li Chengqian and other rebels.

Because Hou Junji and Li Chengqian have a very obvious thing in common, they both have hatred for Li Shimin.

"Hate" and "love" can make people lose their minds and grow a bold heart.

When Helan Chushi went to the door of Hou's house, Hou Junji was closing the door and thanking the guest for thinking, this is what Li Shimin meant, if you do something wrong, you have to bear it and reflect on it, so Hou Junji is very honest at home to reflect.

The Hou family closed the door to thank customers, and countless old friends and colleagues who came to visit were turned away, but Helan Chushi entered the door unimpeded.

Helan Chushi is not a guest, he is the son-in-law of the Hou family.

In the backyard wing of the Hou Mansion, Helan Chushi saw the old father-in-law Hou Junji, and the two of them sat opposite each other in the room, drinking and drinking, the picture was very warm, however, the words of the two had nothing to do with warmth, but mixed with gusts of wind.

For two hours, from the afternoon to dusk, Weng and his son-in-law never went out of the room, no one knew what they talked about, and the people of the Hou family only saw Helan Chushi smiling when he walked out of the house, and kept turning around to salute his father-in-law, while Hou Junji was still expressionless and couldn't see any clues.

After Helan Chushi left, Hou Junji was still standing in the courtyard in a daze, looking at the pots of chrysanthemums piled up like a hill in the courtyard.

Chrysanthemums are sent from the palace this morning, every Chongyang Mid-Autumn Festival, Li Shimin ordered the palace people to give chrysanthemums to the courtiers, it has long been a common rule, Hou Jun has only been back in Chang'an for two days, Li Shimin has not forgotten him, and the chrysanthemums of the Hou family are even more than in previous years.

Looking at the golden flowers that were placed in a proper manner and bloomed in the sun, Hou Junji's face became more and more gloomy.

At this moment, he remembered a past incident in the ninth year of Zhenguan, that year Hou Junji rode into Shangshu Province, lost his mind because of his nostalgia for business, and forgot to get off the horse when he walked through the provincial gate. ”

Hou Junji has always remembered this sentence very clearly, and before today, whenever he thought of Li Jing's words, he always sneered in his heart.

However, after today's son-in-law Helan Chushi left, Hou Junji couldn't laugh when he remembered this sentence again.

In the courtyard, the golden chrysanthemums are waving in the wind, Li Shimin has not forgotten the heroes who have made great contributions to him, His Majesty the Heavenly Khan has a unique way of encircling the hearts of the courtiers, the court is the monarch and the minister, but in private with many civil ministers and military generals get along like friends, on weekdays, whenever there are some interesting and interesting objects, or delicious food, Li Shimin always does not forget to give this a little reward, give that a little, things are not valuable, but the intention is more sincere than giving gold and silver.

Looking at the pots of chrysanthemums in the yard, Hou Junji's indifferent cheeks couldn't help twitching a few times.

Oppose, or not, Hou Junji fell into torment.

If it is the opposite, relying on the plans of the crown prince Li Chengqian and a few unscrupulous gentlemen, Hou Junji, who has been in battle for a long time, can actually see at a glance that the success rate of this matter is extremely low. Besides, with Li Chengqian's mediocre and ruthless character, even if the rebellion is successful, he may not be treated with a classic drama of rabbit dead dog cooking.

If you don't rebel, how can you vent the hatred that has been suppressed in your heart for two years?

Dingding looked at the chrysanthemums in the yard, Hou Junji's face gradually became hideous, and he suddenly flew up and kicked a pot of chrysanthemums to pieces. (To be continued.) )
