Chapter 155: The Hero Group
Li Xuan's words made the crown prince Li Shimin quite moved. He was just about to open his mouth and ordered the recall of Zhang Liang, the vicious dog.
The eldest grandson Wuji stood up and said earnestly: "Your Highness, the threat has not been eliminated yet, at this time, how can Zhang Liang be recalled?" ”
Li Shimin did not speak, but looked at Li Xuan.
Li Xuan walked up to the eldest grandson Wuji, looked the eldest grandson Wuji up and down and said, "The eldest grandson is selfish." The eldest grandson borrowed Zhang Liang's hand to get rid of the head of the Guanlong aristocratic group and the left servant Pei Lian, and then he will inevitably actually control the Guanlong aristocratic group. At this time, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was asked to get rid of the biggest threat to the Guanlong aristocratic group, the Shandong Haozu Group, so as to realize the situation that the Guanlong aristocratic group was dominant in the Tang Dynasty. Planning can be described as a good plan, but the eldest grandson is also a person who is familiar with history books, and after the new monarch ascends the throne, the matter of killing heroes is something that all dynasties have been doing. Even Liu Bang, the most magnanimous emperor of the Han Dynasty in history, was not exempt from vulgarity. It's not that the monarchs are unkind and indiscriminately kill innocents, but it is really these heroes who followed the emperor to fight the world, and after the founding of the country, they all had their own interests. They have become the biggest stumbling block to the emperor's governance, and the only thing the emperor can do in order to implement the policies he has formulated is to raise the butcher's knife, people block and kill, Buddha blocks and kills Buddha, and kills. The Guanlong aristocracy is the only one, there is no checks and balances, and there is only the interests of the Guanlong nobles in their hearts, but not the interests of the entire country. ”
The eldest grandson Wuji suddenly blushed, and he was ashamed of himself. He didn't expect that this selfishness of his own was ruthlessly said by Li Xuan. At present, the Guanlong nobles supported the crown prince Li Shimin to win the victory of the Xuanwumen Change, the prince supported by the Shandong Hao clan was built, and the Qi Wang Yuanji was defeated, and now it is a good opportunity to beat the water dog and completely uproot the entire Shandong Hao clan.
Li Xuan did not excessively stimulate the eldest grandson Wuji. The eldest grandson Wuji is still a talented person, but he is good and powerful, ruthless and vicious, if he is not suppressed, he will inevitably be a generation of powerful ministers, playing with the emperor and the ministers in the palm of his hand, killing and taking away without mercy.
Li Xuan said to the crown prince Li Shimin: "Please Your Highness recall Zhang Liang." Woo and support Wang Qi, Wei Zheng, Shandong Hao, Prince Jiancheng, and Qi Wang Yuanji's former subordinates to use His Royal Highness, balance the situation in the Tang Dynasty, and stabilize the Tang Dynasty. ”
Crown Prince Li Shimin immediately agreed. Immediately ordered: recall Zhang Liang and other remnants of Zuo Xiaowei, and pardon the prince Jiancheng and the old department of King Yuanji of Qi.
The crown prince's edict spread out of the palace and spread throughout the entire imperial capital Chang'an, making the originally oppressive atmosphere of the imperial capital suddenly relaxed.
The crown prince and the prince's mansion, after the prince and the prince Wang Qi received the prince's edict, he slowly stood up and said to his sons: "It's okay, go back and rest." ”、
With that, he turned and walked towards the bedroom.
Several of Wang Jue's sons stood up and looked at Wang Jue's back, bowed and saluted, "Congratulations to my father." ”
When Wang Jue's figure disappeared, several people straightened up, saluted each other, and left.
The crown prince Xian Ma Wei Zheng's mansion, after learning of the crown prince's edict, Wei Zheng's wife Pei Shi returned to the bedroom alone, and Wei Zheng and Bian Si went to the study together.
In the study, Bian Si went to Wei Zheng and asked, "My lord, what does he Li Shimin mean by this edict of the crown prince?" ”
Wei Zheng said with emotion: "In terms of leading troops to fight, the prince is far inferior to him Li Shimin; However, in terms of handling government affairs, Li Shimin, the king of Qin, is not as far away as the crown prince. The prince Jiancheng has a gentle personality, handles government affairs unhurriedly, and is step-by-step and orderly; Li Shimin, the king of Qin, has a strong hero complex, advocating adventure, strong blood, a hot head, dare to do anything, like to cut through the mess quickly, and completely solve the problem once and for all. With such a character, he can be the commander of the army, but how can he handle trivial government affairs well? ”
Bian Si asked cautiously: "Isn't your lord still optimistic about him Qin King Li Shimin?" ”
Wei Zheng waved his hand and said: "It stands to reason that his character Li Shimin is not suitable for handling government affairs at all and governing the entire Tang Dynasty." But he is good at employing people, and he has superior people under him. As far as the crown prince's edict is concerned, this must be a strategy offered to him by the advisors around him. Who could it be? Gao Shilian? Gao Shilian does not have this vision, nor does he have this insight; The eldest grandson Wuji? The eldest grandson Wuji has this insight, but he is too selfish and too greedy for power; Is it Li Xuan? Only Li Xuan has such insight and the ability to convince him Li Shimin. God treats him so kindly, Li Shimin. With Li Xuan's help, he, Li Shimin, will make fewer mistakes and take fewer detours. ”
Bian Sigo asked Wei Zheng again: "Will there be any change in his attitude towards my crown prince and the old subordinates of the King of Qi?" In addition to pardoning the crown prince and the old subordinates of the King of Qi, what else will he Li Shimin do? ”
After Wei Zheng groaned, he said: "With Li Xuan here, the attitude of his Qin King Li Shimin should not change again." In addition to pardoning the crown prince and the old subordinates of the king of Qi, Li Xuan should have suggested that he Li Shimin, the king of Qin, co-opt and activate the former subordinates of the crown prince and the king of Qi to contain the Guanlong aristocratic group headed by the eldest grandson Wuji, so as to ensure the balance of the Tang Dynasty situation and the stability of the Tang Dynasty. ”
While Bian Sigo was surprised, he couldn't help but think about it repeatedly and ponder carefully.
Zhongshu Ling, the mansion of Zheng Renji, the head of the wealthy family in Shandong. When Zheng Renji received the order of the crown prince Li Shimin's pardon, he waved his sleeves and said, "Let's all disperse, and we will meet the crown prince Li Shimin together tomorrow morning." ”
The heads of the wealthy families in Shandong left one after another. The leader of the wealthy clan in Shandong, the minister of literature - Cui Gan, and the minister of martial arts - Lu Chengqing, were left by Zheng Renji.
Zheng Renji said to Cui Gan and Lu Chengqing: "Li Shimin pardoned our Shandong wealthy family, and he must come down to win over and enable our Shandong wealthy family." Zheng Guanyin's father, Zheng Jibo, is the prince of Congyipin, and I am also the Zhongshu Ling, the highest governor of Zhongshu Province, and there is not much room for growth. You are reused, this is the condition that the Shandong Hao clan put forward to him Li Shimin. As long as the two of you are reused by him Li Shimin, my Shandong Hao clan will surrender to him and serve him Li Shimin. ”
After that, Zheng Renji said to Cui Gan and Lu Chengqing with anticipation: "Zheng Jibo and I are both old, and in the future, the two of you will be the people in charge of the entire Shandong Hao family, and I hope you will work together to develop and grow our Shandong Hao family." ”
