Chapter 205: Digging a Pit and Burying People

In the Ganlu Palace, Li Shimin and several generals in the DPRK were discussing the military exercise.

Li Shimin pinched Zhu Sui's music and shook it gently, and laughed loudly: "How can I not tolerate people......

That's it! ”

When the following generals heard this, they all knew what Li Shimin was talking about, and some people thought that Li Shimin would be furious about this, but they didn't expect Li Shimin to agree directly, and he seemed to be very happy.

Hou Junji stood up eagerly and said to Li Shimin: "Your Majesty's military power has always been very important, and there is gunpowder in the East Palace today, so you must not ......be careless."

It's just that before he finished speaking, he was frightened back by Li Shimin's eyes, and the atmosphere in the hall became very solemn for a while.

Originally, in order to show Li Chengqian that the military was dissatisfied with the change in his attitude on the matter of peace and his sudden proposal to use a large-scale military exercise, they excluded the Donggong guard rate from the parade of guards, which was already excessive, but since they had the support of Li Shimin, they were not afraid of anything.

However, if you now jump out to oppose Li Chengqian's parade with Li Shimin, the nature will be different.

Li Chengqian's participation in the military parade is the power of the monarchs according to Zhu Suiliang's statement, and it is related to the form of the military parade in the Tang Dynasty for thousands of generations, so Li Shimin agreed very happily, and you still jumped out to oppose it, what do you want to oppose?

Yu Zhining's bones are not cold, you are going to repeat his mistakes?

Li Shimin looked at Hou Junji solemnly for a long time, and said slowly: "Chen Guogong's words are wrong, and the prince is a courtesy to follow me through the army, how can he think more?"

Hou Junji is one of the nine people who followed Li Shimin to rob and kill Li Jiancheng in Xuanwu Gate, and he has the credit for destroying Gaochang Li Shimin has always valued him very much, but usually Li Shimin also calls him by his name, but today he changed his name because of a mistake, and today he changed his name to call him Chen Guogong......

Although Li Shiji was expressionless when he heard this, he sighed in his heart: Your Majesty must personally remove Hou Junji for the crown prince.

Hou Junji was stunned and hurriedly bowed his head and said, "It's the minister who thinks wrong, please punish Your Majesty." ”

Li Shimin still had a calm face when he heard this, waved his hand and said, "Forget it!" ”

Seeing this, everyone knew that Li Shimin was in a bad mood at this time, so they even got up and saluted and retired.

Only Cheng Yanjin looked at Li Shimin with an embarrassed face and didn't leave, Li Shimin glanced at Cheng Yanjin and snorted angrily and then beckoned to him, Cheng Yanjin hurriedly walked in front of Li Shimin with a flattering face.

"Your Majesty, you see that the minister has just returned to Chang'an......"

Li Shimin's beard was white and he bent over with a smile on his face, and the anger in his heart disappeared, and he said angrily: "You don't have to be afraid of anything!" ”

"Hey, hey, your majesty is not afraid of anything!"

Li Shimin sighed and pointed to the Jindun in front of the bed and said: "Sit down, our monarchs and ministers may not have spoken well for a long time, so let's talk about it today." Li Shimin said with a slight loneliness in his eyes.

Cheng Yanjin hurriedly sat down on the brocade pier and said with a big grin: "What Your Majesty said is that whenever the minister is stationed outside this year, whenever he gets together with the generals and drinks a bowl of wine, he will always think of His Majesty and want to talk to His Majesty. ”

Li Shimin smiled when he heard this: "You blame me for not giving you a drink when you came back this time?"

Cheng Yanjin stretched out his hands with a wry smile on his face, and swayed again and again, indicating that he didn't dare.

Li Shimin smiled when he saw this, and then said with a straight face: "Since Cheng Qian's legs and feet were injured and left disabled, many people have thoughts in their hearts that they shouldn't have, first some people instigated Qingque to rebel, and then some people wanted to use child slaves to deal with Cheng Qian. I have said many times that Cheng Qian is the eldest and I will never replace the sect with evil branches, but no one listened, and this led to one disaster after another.

Fortunately, Cheng Qianren and Xiaozhen are also at ease, and he has been quite competitive recently, so I will naturally indulge him a little, and the generals of the East Palace he promoted are indeed meritorious......"

Cheng Yanjin listened to Li Shimin's words, although he smiled and nodded from time to time, his heart was cold, he heard all the way that Li Shimin was quite protective of Li Chengqian's Donggong guard, so he transferred him and Xue Wanche into Chang'an.

So as soon as he came back, he set out to suppress the Donggong Wei rate, and he got the support of the generals of Chang'an, but now when he heard Li Shimin's meaning, he was very satisfied with Li Chengqian.

Cheng Yanjin wanted to scold his mother......

Li Shimin didn't know what Cheng Yanjin was thinking, so he just continued to take care of himself: "But these people can't go out of the ground under me!" Otherwise, will Cheng Qian still be able to use them when the time comes?"

"Your Majesty, your holy life is boundless, why bother thinking about these things." Cheng Yanjin understood that what Li Shimin wanted to suppress was the generals of the Budong Palace, so that they could only revolve around Li Chengqian, and only after Li Chengqian ascended the throne would these people have the opportunity to come forward and make contributions to Li Chengqian.

Cheng Yanjin understood these and secretly complained in his heart, how could he encounter such a thing, the guards of the East Palace now seem to be Li Chengqian's henchmen, and Li Shimin did not intend to move them, but he was against these people for Li Shimin's idea.

Headache......

Li Shimin's will went down, and the government and the opposition quickly quieted down, and all the officials were re-evaluating Li Chengqian's status in their hearts.

The day before the martial arts, Li Shimin summoned Li Chengqian and his ministers to discuss the matter in the Liangyi Palace.

Originally, this time in Chengtianlou was mainly to meet with Xue Yantuo's marriage proposal, but since Li Chengqian proposed to conduct military exercises to deter foreign barbarians on that day, the center of gravity of the imperial court has changed, and everything has been centered on military exercises.

……

……

Everything discussed in front of them was very good, but when the guards ended, everyone couldn't find a suitable path.

Because in the past, when Li Shimin reviewed the armies, the soldiers lined up in the military formation, and he rode a horse in front of the armies, and then he left the field first, and the soldiers in the formation could disperse as they wanted.

But this time, after reading the armies, it is necessary to announce that the Tang Dynasty and Xue Yantuo are reconciled, and then there are songs and dances on the Chengtian Gate, etc., so it is obviously unreasonable to let the guards wait until they are gone.

Li Shiji, as the secretary of the military department, his opinion was to let the soldiers line up and wait until the end of the field.

Li Shimin thought that the soldiers should be withdrawn first after he finished the review, but Yang Shidao and Ma Zhou and other civilian officials felt that retreating directly would be the prestige of the Tang Army.

From listening to Li Chengqian's words, Datang's texts were thinking about surrendering soldiers without a fight, so they were more attentive to martial arts, and in just a few days, they came up with Xu terms and conditions, including how to punish the military department Shangshu under what conditions, which made the generals have a lot of opinions.

It was when everyone had different opinions that Li Chengqian waved his hand to everyone, and when everyone looked at him, he slowly spoke: "If it's just the chariot of the father and the lonely king walking around in front of the various army formations, is it still a martial arts?"

Everyone was stunned when they heard this, but they quickly reacted, and now they only designed a review program and did not have a martial arts program.

Li Chengqian continued to sigh lightly and rolled his eyes at the ministers, and then continued: "This is the first time that I won't do other projects, but after the review of my father and the lonely king, the guards will walk over from the front line of Chengtian Gate. ”

When all the generals heard this, they all felt that this was too pediatric, and Cheng Yanjin was the first to stand up and say: "His Royal Highness the Prince, this is easy to do as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said, walk through the Chengtian Gate from west to east until the Tonghua Gate of Chang'an City, and then walk back to Xuanwu in the north of the palace along the city wall." ”

Cheng Yanjin was really smart, and as soon as he opened his mouth, Li Chengqian was inconvenient to hold and even solved the matter of the end.

Li Chengqian smiled faintly when he heard this: "It's easy, but these few steps have to get out of the military prestige of the Tang Dynasty, and the national prestige will come!" ”

"This is natural!" Not to be outdone, Hou Junji stood up and said.

Li Chengqian snickered in his heart and said secretly: You just wait to be embarrassed!
