If you have to say that Yang Guang is guilty, it is a crime to rush for quick success and quick profit, and failure is a crime. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

It is not an exaggeration to say that the king is defeated or defeated.

If Yang Guang is defeated, he must have the consciousness of bearing endless notoriety, and such emperors and last emperors abound.

Ancient merchants, how could this not be the case?

At this point, Li Shimin suddenly woke up.

He understood why Li Yuan valued his eldest brother Li Jiancheng so much, rather than him who was more outstanding in credit. He always thought that Li Yuan was eccentric and Li Yuan was old-fashioned, but he didn't know that he was afraid that he would become the second Yang Guang, he knew him, knew his courage, and his ambition was only better than Yang Guang.

The foundation of the Tang Dynasty is far inferior to that of the Sui Dynasty, beware that if he becomes the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, a talent will not only not bring prosperity to the Tang Dynasty, but will push the Tang Dynasty to the end of destruction and follow in the footsteps of Yang Guang.

"Father, the son is not Yang Guang, Yang Guang puts his own ideas above all else, for his own ambition, he regards the lives of the people as grass mustard, and the people of the world as his tools to achieve great things, and enslaves them infinitely. Erchen can't do it...... It's not that the sons are kinder than him and nobler than him, but that the sons understand a truth. Li Shimin looked at Li Yuan and said cautiously: "The boat is also the king, the people are also water, the water can carry the boat, and it can also capsize the boat." As the emperor, Yang Guang stood above tens of thousands of people, thinking that he could dominate everything, but he didn't know that it was precisely because of the presence of thousands of people that he could become the king of a country. If you don't get the support of the people, you will eventually be overthrown by the people. ”

"Because of Yang Guang's abuse of labor, Wei Wentong, Wang Wanchang, Zhai Rang, Wang Bo, Liu Badao, Sun Anzu, Gao Tuda, Dou Jiande, Zhang Jincheng, Liu Yuanjin, Du Fuwei, Meng Haigong ......" Li Shimin said the names of the leaders of the sixty-four peasant rebel armies in one breath, and said: "If they didn't mess up the world, I, Li Tang, would not be able to take advantage of the troubled times to rise up, so as to enter the army and dominate the world." ”

Li Yuan looked at his son, who was talking about the big talk in front of him, and showed a relieved smile.

Yang Guang's intelligence and ability did not make the Sui Dynasty prosperous, but because he fell into a rare upheaval. In just six years, sixty or seventy peasant uprisings emerged in the Great Sui Dynasty, which directly disturbed the situation in the world and pushed the Sui Dynasty to its extinction. So much so that the Sui Dynasty II, which was as bright as a meteor, died.

As the founder of the Tang Dynasty, Li Yuan did not want to follow in the footsteps of the previous dynasty, and would die the world that had been fought down with great difficulty, and the second Li Tang Dynasty, which had been forged with great difficulty.

Li Shimin has ambitions no less than Yang Guang, and also has extraordinary talents, and what Li Yuan is most afraid of is that Li Shimin will follow Yang Guang's path, because his ambition and talent will push the Tang Dynasty into the abyss.

Possessing the wealth left by Yang Jian can't afford Yang Guang's tossing, Datang took over the turbulent mess at the end of the Sui Dynasty, and Yang Guang's confidence is ten times worse, and he can't afford to toss.

It is also because of this idea that Li Yuancai has always insisted that Li Jiancheng be the prince of the Tang Dynasty, he takes a fancy to Li Jiancheng's natural ability in politics, and believes that the Tang Dynasty needs to cultivate self-cultivation and development, and Li Jiancheng's temperament and ability are suitable for consolidating the foundation of the Tang Dynasty and making the Tang Dynasty stronger.

But people are not as good as heaven. The development of things exceeded Li Yuan's expectations, Li Shimin planned the Renzhi Palace incident, and Li Jiancheng made a serious mistake in employing people.

"The ancients said: 'Relatives and virtuous ministers, far villains, this ancestor is so prosperous; Pro-villain, Yuanxian Chen, after that, the Han Dynasty fell into decline'. The people you use are all capable ministers, I know it in my heart, and I will gradually rest assured after that. Why do I occupy the Tai Chi Palace and not leave? Because I'm afraid you're going the wrong way, and you can only do your best if you stay close and supervise. Your performance in recent years is nothing more than to prove to me that you are stronger than Jiancheng, that you are more qualified to be the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and that through your every move, through your Turkic actions, you have broken my worries with facts, and in some respects, you are indeed much better than your eldest brother. What impresses me the most is that you have successfully divided, divided, and supported the Second Turkic Khan, dividing the powerful Turks into two, and fighting endlessly. ”

Li Shimin glanced at Qin Feng and said with some embarrassment: "Division, division, and support of the Turkic Second Khan are not the strategy of the sons, but the strategy offered by Feng'er. ”

Li Yuan laughed and said: "As the king of a country, you can be talentless, but you can't be without the insight to know people, and you can't be without the mind to promote talents without sticking to one pattern." If you don't know how to delegate power, what's the use of doing it yourself? The world is so big, how can one person manage it. My Datang is now full of talents, and delegating power to talents to deal with it is more effective than doing it yourself. Liu Bang is just a deflated man, why he founded a strong man, because he has the ability to know people and have a useful mind. Erlang is much stronger than Liu Bang at this point. Now, after the hair, if you continue to maintain this practice, the Tang Dynasty will definitely be a dynasty stronger than the Han Dynasty. ”

After Li Yuan finished speaking, he took out a black and dull brand from his coat pocket, threw it to Li Shimin, and said, "Family affairs, state affairs, and world affairs are all handed over to you." Okay, tomorrow, I'll move your nest for you, and go to raise me in peace. I've said enough today, so go down. Qin boy is weird, you are very interesting. I have time to accompany my old man. ”

"Whoa!"

Looking at the back of Li Shimin and Qin Feng leaving, Li Yuan smiled slightly, and there was a sense of relief in his smile.

It is true that Li Yuan has a good temperament, but in this overall situation related to the society of the country, Li Yuan is unambiguous.

Therefore, in the two years that Li Shimin succeeded to the throne, Li Yuan has been quietly watching his son exert the power of the emperor behind his back......

He has always been worried that Li Shimin's character will follow in Yang Guang's footsteps, but as time went by, he found that he completely underestimated his second son.

In the two years since Li Shimin was in power, he has worked diligently and diligently. What is his purpose. Li Yuan as a father. As a father who re-understands his children, it couldn't be clearer: he is still the same competitive, this is the intention to prove himself, to prove that he is stronger than his eldest brother Li Jiancheng, and to prove that he is more suitable than Li Jiancheng to be the emperor of the Tang Dynasty. He wants to do things that Li Jiancheng can't do, and do great things that Li Jiancheng can't do.

The Turks, the great rivals of the Tang Dynasty, were his targets.

Li Yuan also reacquainted himself with his second son at this time, and he found that Li Shimin had the ambition comparable to that of Han Wu, but he did not have Yang Guang's impatient mentality. He was indeed anxious to prove himself, and he had long intended to fight the Turks. But this eagerness did not negatively affect him, but became the motivation to motivate him. Far from being reckless. On the contrary, it attaches great importance to the people and attaches importance to economic development.

He was able to be patient and recuperate for two years, while relying on the wisdom and strategy of Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, and Changsun Wuji to control the situation in the north, make friends from afar and attack closely, win over Xue Yantuo, support Tuli to fight against Jieli, and overtake the situation in the north with conspiracy; On the one hand, he supported Wei Zheng, Wang Qi, Cen Wenwen and other government affairs talents to govern the Tang Dynasty and restore the economy of the Tang Dynasty; On the one hand, he eclecticly promoted the young generation represented by Qin Feng to reserve talents for Datang. In the two years he has been in power, he has not only solved all kinds of problems left by himself, but also taken one step at a time to see the layout of the future, which is by no means within the reach of his father.

When the Xuanwu Gate happened, he really hated Li Shimin very much.

But there was no overnight feud between father and son, and as time went by, Li Yuan's mentality slowly changed, and he could also rationally look at the changes in Xuanwumen. He knew that he couldn't complain about Li Shimin, nor could he complain about Li Jiancheng, and he could only complain about his unqualified father, who personally pushed his two sons to the opposite side and pushed them into the abyss. If I had to find a reason, then authority would undoubtedly be to blame.

As a founding emperor and a general who personally went into battle to kill the enemy, Li Yuan also saw life and death relatively openly. When he figured it out, he also let go, and he also looked down on it. Today, when he turned over the conversation and heard Li Shimin's golden and good words, all the worries in his heart disappeared: he knew that Li Shimin, who could say these words, could not become the second Yang Guang.

Datang can be entrusted with all of it......

You can really retire yourself.

As a result, there was a move to hand over the token to Li Shimin.

It was not an ordinary token, it represented one of the most powerful forces in Li Yuan's era, but it had been hidden in the shadows and had never seen the light of day, but Li Yuan knew that if he used the power represented by that token, then the Tang Dynasty throne would be subverted again, which was beyond doubt. Moreover, on the surface, there are countless people who are loyal to him Li Yuan, although most of them have retired after Li Shimin succeeded to the throne, but retiring does not mean that he has no strength.

Li Shimin knew that Li Yuan still had reservations, after all, he had used improper means to get to the top at the beginning, and it was normal for Li Yuan to have grievances in his heart, and if he had grievances, he naturally would not confess them all.

Before, Li Shimin's filial piety was still mixed with utilitarian colors, but gradually, he no longer cared about the power in Li Yuan's hands, although it was enough to deter his throne. But he also knew that Li Yuan was a rational person, as long as he really served the country and the people, Li Yuan would never sacrifice his killer weapon. Li Yuan, a confused father, didn't understand his sons' ambitions until the end, but his son had already studied Li Yuan very thoroughly.

Li Yuan is now handing over this token, which is just the icing on the cake for Li Shimin. In recent years, especially in the development of agricultural economy, the Tang Dynasty has made full development, for some policies set up by Li Jiancheng when he was the prince, Li Shimin did not blindly reject and belittle, especially Li Jiancheng's proposal of the uniform land system and rent modulation, which was strongly supported by Li Shimin after ascending the throne, and the improvement of these two systems was carried out, and the effect was even more significant.

In terms of the ability to govern the world, Li Shimin may not be able to defeat Li Jiancheng, but as a winner, he has a more perfect platform than Li Jiancheng. When Li Jiancheng was in power, the three powers competed, and the interests of the imperial party, the interests of the princelings, and the Qin Wang party had to be considered in everything. Political struggle is the most hurtful to the foundation of national strength, and Li Jiancheng is afraid of taking care of this and that, and there will be certain problems in the implementation of policies.

At this time, Li Shimin annexed the core members of the princelings, and then dismissed the incompetent imperial party members by reducing the number of personnel, and only retained capable personnel. At the same time, Qin Feng brought hundreds of thousands of sheep, tens of thousands of war horses and thousands of cattle for the Tang Dynasty, which greatly reduced an unnecessary expenditure, and the economic recovery was much smoother than planned.
