Li Xuan knew that Xu Jingzong at this time was still inconspicuous in the Zhenguan Dynasty of the Tang Emperor Li Shimin, who was full of talents, but when Li Zhi and Wu Zetian were in power, they were hot and purple. When Li Zhi and Wu Zetian were in power, there were only two ministers in the entire Tang Dynasty who could enter the palace and Hongwen Palace, one of these two ministers was the Tang Dynasty military god and British Duke Li Ji, and the other was Xu Jingzong in front of him.

Xu Jingzong was born in the southern scholar family, a native of Hangzhou Xincheng, and his father was Xu Shanxin, a former servant of the Sui Rite Department. Xu Jingzong has been smart since childhood, good at (zhu) literature, known as a prodigy, his qualifications are considered senior even in the talented Zhenguan Dynasty, he has been the marshal's office of Li Mi, the Duke of Wei in Wagang Mountain, to join the army, and Wei Zheng, the current imperial historian of the Tang Dynasty, together for Li Mi to plan and take charge of confidential affairs; When the Tang Emperor Li Shimin was the king of Qin, Xu Jingzong, together with the current left servant of Shangshu in the Tang Dynasty, shot Fang Xuanling, and the former right servant of Shangshu shot Du Ruhui, and became the earliest Wenchen team of Li Shimin, the king of Qin, and a member of the eighteen scholars of the Qin Palace. Now, whether it is Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Wei Zheng, or those who came out with Xu Jingzong, they have all achieved the number one in the Tang Dynasty or an important position, and they are in power, only Xu Jingzong is still a mere scholar in the fourth grade, dealing with books all day long, and has no real power.

If this happens, in fact, no one else can be blamed, and only Xu Jingzong himself can be blamed.

Xu Jingzong is talented and famous at a young age, so he is quite arrogant, and he is quite arrogant and arrogant.

Once he met a court official he had known before, regardless of his position, he told the other party that he had forgotten who the other party was, and asked the other party to report his name again, because some people blamed him for his bad memory. Xu Jingzong replied contemptuously: "Remember what your name is, what's the difficulty? If you have the same talent as Cao Zhi like me, I will find a way to remember your names even if I ask in secret. But you're not, why do I remember the names of you fools? ”

Because Xu Jingzong is proud of his talents and does not know how to respect others, even if he is talented and qualified, he has a bumpy career, and now, he has no real power.

And when Li Zhi and Wu Zetian were in power, Xu Jingzong suddenly changed his temper as if he had come to a great understanding, and he was unprincipled and blindly welcomed Li Zhi and Wu Zetian. Finally, ushered in the spring of his career and the highest peak of his career.

In particular, Li Zhi abolished the queen and established Wu Zetian as the queen, Xu Jingzong made a great effort, he was on the top of the main hall, openly supported Li Zhidao: "The common people collect ten more loads of grain every year, and they still want to change their original wives, Your Majesty is rich in the world, and the queen is abolished." That's as it should be. He helped Li Zhi, abolished the queen of the king, and succeeded in establishing Wu Zetian, and since then he has won the trust and favor of Li Zhi and Wu Zetian. began to rise to the top, soaring into the sky, and it was hot.

At this time, Xu Jingzong saw that the eyes of everyone in the entire Hanyuan Hall were looking at him, and his face was proud. He deliberately paused for a moment, paused, and then continued to say to Emperor Li Yuan: "The emperor is wrong. In this world, there are great and small loyalty, and there is a difference between big and small gifts, and this righteousness is also divided into big and small righteousness. As we all know, it was King Xi who was built and King Yuanji of Hailing first wanted to put the emperor to death, and the emperor was forced to take action.

As the emperor said, the emperor's ability far exceeds that of King Xi Jiancheng and Hailing King Yuanji, whether it is King Xi Jiancheng or King Hailing inheriting the throne, my Tang Dynasty will not achieve the same outstanding achievements as today's son.

As an emperor, the first thing in his heart is the country, and he is not like others who can have all kinds of personal feelings.

History evaluates the merits of an emperor, not by whether he cares about his relatives and whether he treats his courtiers tolerantly, but the most important thing to look at is whether what he does is beneficial to the society and whether the people under his rule can live a good life.

In that year, Dayu ruled the water for 13 years, three through the door and did not enter, 13 years of hard work, and finally cured the flood, so that the people of the world can have a place to live, can farm and work, in order to survive, Dayu in the eyes of his wife, son, family may not be a good husband, good father, good reliance, but who can deny Dayu to eliminate the flood, the great merit of benefiting the people of the world? Who can deny that Dayu is not a generation of Ming monarchs?

Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, in order to escape for his life on the battlefield, kicked his pair of sons and daughters, the crown prince Liu Ying and the eldest princess Lu Yuan, from the fleeing carriage again and again; In order not to be coerced by Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, in the face of Xiang Yu's desire to cook and kill his father, he also said without guilt, 'You and I have been brothers before, my father is also your father, if you really want to cook him, please give you a bowl of meat soup (geng) to drink', treating his courtiers, after Liu Bang founded the country, he also wantonly slaughtered heroes.

In the eyes of relatives and courtiers, Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, may not be a good father, a good son, or a good king, but the history is clear, and no one can deny that it is such a Liu Bang who is not a good father, a good son, and a good monarch in the eyes of relatives and courtiers. So that the people of the world are grateful for his kindness, regard him as a parent, and respect and be grateful to him from the bottom of their hearts.

Now the same is true of my Tang Dynasty Emperor, although he is also like Dayu and Han Gaozu Liu Bang, he also has small mistakes, does not take enough care of his family, and does not love his brothers enough, but the great achievements he has established now are great contributions to my Datang Sheji, and great contributions to millions of people in my Datang. Today, he defeated the Great Turkic Khanate, the great enemy who pressed on the head of the Tang Dynasty, threatened our Datang at all times, and threatened the lives of the people of the Tang Dynasty at all times, and captured the Khan Jieli of the Great Turkic Khanate, so that he got the punishment he deserved; Today, he implemented the policy of recuperation and recuperation, so that millions of people in the Tang Dynasty, even in the face of drought and locust plagues for three consecutive years, have been able to survive, and the days have become more and more prosperous; Today, the son is both rigid and soft, lenient and severe, on the one hand, he is not afraid of power, defeats the Turks, and stands up in the countries, on the other hand, he respects etiquette and builds kindness in all directions, so that today it has attracted dozens of surrounding countries to worship my Tang Dynasty and call me the Son of Heaven with the Khan of the Tang Dynasty.

Therefore, the minister thought that the emperor was wrong, the emperor abandoned the small family and took care of the righteousness, even if there were occasional small mistakes, it was also flawed, radiant, my Tang people, my descendants of the Central Plains will be grateful for the emperor's kindness, so that the emperor's name will remain in history, shine in the annals of history, and become a generation of virtuous monarchs and masters, and a model for all generations.
