Chapter 134: Li Shimin's Essay
After breaking off the matter of Xinfeng County Order, Li Haochen let the county Cheng who had been suppressed by Du Zhong act as the county commander, and hurriedly led the troops to Tongguan, and arrived in Weinan County in the evening of the second day, and the Weinan County Commander also came to see Li Haochen, with an extremely ambiguous attitude, Li Haochen knew that when he had such a bowel movement, he must seek self-protection from such a small county order, if Li Shimin's army really passed Tongguan, this county order would probably surrender, but Li Haochen did not move this county order, and the ants still stole their lives, which is human nature, Li Haochen briefly greeted the county magistrate of Weinan for a while, and then sent the county magistrate back, and he did not enter Weinan, but set up camp near Weinan City.
In the early morning of the third day of the expedition, Li Haochen had just gotten up, and there were scouts to report, and the scouts came to report two things, the first thing was that Li Shimin's crusade had arrived in Weinan, and now the people of Weinan were panicking, and the second thing was somewhat interesting, that is, Li Shimin suddenly withdrew his troops for ten miles and began to confront Tongguan, and did not attack for days as before.
After getting the scout's report, Li Haochen hurriedly found Wei Zheng and Fang Xuanling in the Chinese army tent to discuss these two things, the two came to Li Haochen's Chinese army tent, Li Haochen explained the purpose of letting the two come over, Wei Zheng and Fang Xuanling heard the purpose of calling them over, both looked heavy, after the three of them sat down in the tent, Li Haochen took out a piece of yellow cloth, which was inlaid with this white silk silk, and the silk was densely filled with words, it was a list of texts, Li Haochen handed this list to Wei Zheng and Fang Xuanling and said: "Brother Wei, Mr. Fang, take a look! ”
After the two took this list, they saw that the list was impressively written: "King Tang Qin, General Tiance told the world: Alone from Emperor Wude Taiyuan to raise troops, to eliminate the riots, then the south and the north war, the war achievements are numerous, Emperor Wude read the merits of the lonely, said: 'Eight or nine out of ten in the Tang realm are my children's income, after a hundred years, I should inherit the unification and rule the people!" Lone said to Emperor Wude: "The elders and young are orderly, the people of the world dare not make times, and the eldest brother should inherit the unification as the eldest son!" The people of the world are willing to assist him! Emperor Wude said: 'Good! 'Then the establishment of the store in the built, lonely thought that the humility of the lonely, in the future will be able to brother and brother Gong, the eldest brother will inevitably be more friendly to the lonely, who expected it to be not only so, but also had a bad heart, after the completion of the throne, has repeatedly to the Wude Emperor to speak, said that the lone merit is high to cover the master, after a long time will be reversed, should be removed as soon as possible! Emperor Xingwude remembered the relationship between father and son, and refused to accept it, so he was able to survive to this day.
Lonely thought and built is the elder brother, and for the prince of the country, everywhere humble to him, I thought that even if I can't be a brother and a brother, I can be safe, and keep my pulse safe and sound, who expected that Jiancheng would threaten Emperor Wude with his own life, let Emperor Wude depose Lonely, Emperor Wude was helpless, so he announced to the world in June of the ninth year of Wude, the words of slander Lone in the edict were all out of the construction of extremely henchmen, Lone was said to be an ungrateful and heinous man, was demoted to Yunzhou, and eliminated the king.
Before leaving, Emperor Wude sighed and said to Gu: "Wu'er, I know that you are wronged in your heart, but your brother is the prince of the country, and the future of the Tang Dynasty will depend on him to support, I have made him make an oath that he will not harm your life, you can cultivate yourself in Yunzhou and live for a long time!" Although Lone was aggrieved in his heart, he saw that his father was old and devoted to my Datang Dynasty, although he was sad, he also accepted such treatment and took his family to Yunzhou.
Lone thought that he would never return to Chang'an in this life, and retire with peace of mind in Yunzhou, but this year he suddenly heard that his father's biography was built, and Lone knew that his father would not do such a thing. But Lone is already guilty and can't leave Yunzhou, although he has the heart to save his father from fire and water, but he doesn't dare to mess with the power of the law.
The father understands the lonely heart, and will not make a rebellious act without an edict, so he sent a secret envoy to Yunzhou, and summoned the lonely army into Chang'an, the Qing monarch's side, except for the riots, turning the tide in the fall, and the lonely single force is weak, so he recruited the righteous soldier Qin Wang in Yunzhou to protect, and now he has 150,000 righteous people to help, go to Chang'an, to shake the Qiangang, and enter Chang'an to rebel against the secret edict, along the way the state capital will be in the autumn without committing any crime, if the state capital dares to stop my army Qin Wang, it will be punished for the crime of treason! "This document will end when it arrives, and the payment is the first month of the tenth year of the Tang Dynasty, judging from the year and month of the payment, it is obvious that Li Shimin does not recognize Li Jiancheng's identity as the emperor at all. Needless to say, several people also know that this is engraved privately by Li Shimin, because his seal of King Qin and Admiral Tiance have been taken back by the imperial court when they were demoted to Yunzhou.
Li Haochen saw that both of them were silent, so he asked, "Brother Wei, Mr. Fang, what do you two think about this matter!" ”
Listening to Li Haochen's question, Wei Zheng spoke first: "I'm afraid this matter is not easy to deal with, if the Emperor Taishang is in good health now, he can completely let the Emperor Taishang drive the expedition in person, this document is self-defeating, Li Shimin's army will inevitably collapse, so that victory can be achieved without a fight, but now that the Emperor Taishang is seriously ill, this document cannot verify the authenticity of its content at all, even if we send another reprimand, I am afraid that people in the world may not believe us and not believe Li Shimin!" ”
After Fang Xuanling finished speaking with Wei Zheng, he said: "Mr. Wei, what he said is very true, and Li Shimin is taking advantage of the opportunity of the Emperor Taishang's serious illness to dare to issue such a message, the ancient rebels must first correct their names, the original derogatory text of Li Shimin has made him the target of public criticism, and there is no chance to mobilize the 150,000 army to accompany him, so the main purpose of this document is not to attack His Majesty, but to testify for Li Shimin himself, if there is no good way, I don't think you need to ignore it!" ”
"Don't bother?" Li Haochen's eyebrows were twisted together, and he looked at Fang Xuanling suspiciously, not understanding why he said such a thing. Wei Zheng also had a puzzled look on his face.
Looking at himself, thinking that he was Li Shimin's vassal, is it really easy to make people suspicious when he says such a thing at this moment, so Fang Xuanling did not sell Guanzi, but said directly: "Marshal, do you know the truth that the winner is king?" ”
Li Haochen instantly understood when he heard this, and hurriedly saluted Fang Xuanling: "What Mr. said is very true, Haochen has gone into a misunderstanding!" The reason why Li Haochen behaved like this is because he understands what Fang Xuanling means, whoever has the big fist in this world is always the truth, he doesn't need to compete with Li Shimin on this public opinion now, as long as he leads the troops to defeat Li Shimin, this public opinion will inevitably lead to his side, why should he be serious with Li Shimin here, Li Haochen, who has figured it out, is no longer entangled in this matter, but said: "Let's talk about another matter!" ”
