Chapter 31: Li Shimin's Troubles
Silla, like all the small countries around Datang in this era, has the intention of enjoying the shade under the big tree, and wants to hug the thigh of Datang. 《x.
These thighs are thick, especially thighs like those in the Tang Dynasty, because there are more people hugging them, they will fight for each other, not that they can hug them.
Even if Silla faced this situation, the two neighboring countries, one Goguryeo, had no choice but to be able to do it because of its strength, and the other was Baekje. When it comes to strength, Baekje is not as good as Silla, but the family has two fathers, one Datang and one Japan, Datang favors Baekje, Japan and Baekje share common interests, and even do not hesitate to send troops to help.
Faced with enemies on both sides, Silla's situation can be imagined, and it is not difficult to understand their eagerness to hug their thighs.
"What General Kim said makes a lot of sense...... If the New Tang Emperor is once again bewitched by Baekje Buyeo Zhang, our Silla will be in danger. As far as I know, the New Tang Emperor is the most outstanding and the most remarkable one among the heirs of the Tang Dynasty. The Tang Dynasty has defeated its old enemy, the Turks, and no one has been able to stop their rise. We can't afford to miss the lead again this time. Jindeman, the future empress of Silla, still looked far away, and said in a deep voice: "Father Tongguò The hero on Changbai Mountain learned the news that the new emperor of the Tang Dynasty was about to succeed to the throne, and it can also be seen that Goguryeo and Baekje have blocked this news. Taking advantage of the geographical advantage to limit our intelligence sources, they made all preparations to prevent us from having more dealings with Datang. Especially Fuyu Zhang, he must also be ready to curry favor with the new emperor. Without further ado, we should immediately send an envoy to congratulate the new emperor of the Tang Dynasty on his accession to the throne and express the intention of the vassals. ”
Jin Shengman said: "There is no need to question it when you leave immediately." The key is how to go. Baekje has the help of Yamato, and the naval force is above us, and they blockade the sea. It is difficult for us to reach Datang by sea 6. Goguryeo also did not want to see us make peace with the Tang Dynasty, which must be full of dangers along the way. In my opinion, it is better to take 6 routes, these young Han people in Changbai Mountain have our help and have taken root in Changbai Mountain, and they can use their strength to let us pass through Goguryeo and arrive in Youzhou in the Tang Dynasty. Danger compared to the sea 6. Route 6 is slower, but it is the safest after all. ”
King Jinping looked at the Silla sisters, Jindeman and Kim Seungman, and was full of emotion. He had no children under his knees, so he simply gave him two daughters who were like flowers and jades and were extremely intelligent, and they could inherit the Silla country, which was also a great luck in misfortune. "Then who do you think is best to send? Best for? ”
"I'll go!" "I'll go!"
Almost at the same time, Jindeman and Jin Shengman said in unison.
The two sisters looked at each other almost identically.
Jindeman said: "I am the first princess of Silla, and I can best show sincerity when I go." ”
Jin Shengman glanced at his sister with a little worry, and didn't fight with her, but said, "Be careful all the way, you can go to General Luo when you get to Chang'an." I don't know if my sister remembers, General Luo seems to have a special dislike for Yamato. Baekje is attached to the Tang Dynasty and submits to the Yamato Kingdom, this kind of half-hearted wall-to-wall grass. The upright character of the general was the most disgusted and despised, and let him know that he would definitely be extremely disgusted with Baekje. Now the identity of the general is not what it used to be, and he can help you get twice the result with half the effort. And ......," she said earnestly, suddenly whispering in Kinderman's ear.
Jindeman's face turned crimson, and he vigorously pushed Jin Shengman.
In exchange for a burst of coquettish laughter and the dazed nature of King Zhenping and Jin Yuxin.
Tai Chi Hall side courtyard!
Li Yuan, Li Shimin, Pei Lian, Xiao Yu, Chen Shuda, Yu Wenshi, as well as Luo Shixin and Pingyang, under the auspices of Li Yuan, talked about the past to the moon together, and recounted with emotion the experience when they first fought the world.
Luo Shixin and Pingyang, as juniors, spent most of their time on the sidelines as listeners, and even Li Shimin didn't speak much, looking a little displeased.
Li Yuan sighed: "Old, really old!" I think that Pei Jian and I were able to drink and talk happily, day and night, from full of energy to no fatigue. Now after a few glasses of wine, I am already tired. As he spoke, he sighed sadly, grabbed the moon cake on the table, took a bite and said: "This moon cake stuffing meat is delicious, compared to when Pei Jianming did this, the taste is several times sweeter." But no matter how you eat it, you can't taste it at the beginning. Supervisor Pei, remember what was the filling in the original moon cake? It's wild vegetables, and it's smoked meat...... What is it? ”
"Hui Majesty xià is a rabbit ......," Pei Lin replied respectfully.
Li Yuan slapped the table and realized: "Yes, yes, yes, it's a rabbit, it's a rabbit." At that time, there was a shortage of food, and I didn't know the taste of meat for more than a month. You killed your own rabbit and secretly hid it in a mooncake for me to taste. The smell is still fresh in my memory...... Whether it was the year before or the year before last, I once said to you, 'The prince is the minister, I am the emperor, and I am happy in my old age, and I am also good'. ”
Pei Lin hurriedly said that he didn't dare.
Li Yuan raised his glass and said: "You are all the pillars of my Datang, and the future of Datang is indispensable for your efforts...... Shimin, these are all old ministers who have worked hard with their father, and you can't treat them badly in the future. ”
Li Shimin hurriedly smiled and said, "Father don't worry, the son knows." I have a Tang Dynasty today, and all of you here have made great contributions, and your sons and daughters are not respectful, how can you be treated badly. I would like to give you one last drink and thank you for your outstanding contributions to my Datang......"
Luo Shixin greeted him with wine, and he already vaguely understood Li Yuan's intentions in his heart.
"Drink, drink!" Li Yuan laughed and said: "Look at me, this person is old and confused, if he doesn't talk about these things, he still can't help but say it, I will punish myself with a cup, and I will punish myself with a cup." He refreshedly poured another full glass.
All the people present have the ability to observe words and feelings, and when they see the change of wind direction, they are no longer restrained, and they eat and drink happily, talk and laugh until the end.
On the way home, Pingyang sighed: "Father, this is well-intentioned!" ”
"You noticed that, too?" Luo Shixin said: "My father-in-law is indeed affectionate and sexual, but I am afraid that it will be a little difficult for His Royal Highness the Prince." In all fairness, my father-in-law does have some deficiencies in employing people. ”
Li Yuan's ability to govern the country can be called a promising king, but no one is perfect, in the use of nepotism, his style has always been criticized, reusing the incompetent Li Yuanji to lose Taiyuan, reusing the incompetent Pei Lin who does not know the military affairs and losing again and again, the important and incompetent Li Yuan, the reuse of the often defeated marshal Li Shentong, etc., a series of appointments to guide the Tang Dynasty defeated and lost divisions can be described as countless. Especially Li Yuanji, Pei Lian, and Li Shentong, they almost lost 300,000 soldiers and horses in the Tang Dynasty, but Li Yuan not only did not blame them, but still treated them as before.
For some reason, later generations also commented on Li Yuan and said that he was too lucky, with outstanding sons and relatives like Li Jiancheng, Li Shimin, and Li Xiaogong, who could turn the tide and make up for the mistakes caused by Li Yuan's employment. Li Shimin's prestige is so great, and most of it is because of this: he always wins the enemy beautifully at the most critical time, when the Tang Dynasty is defeated and demoralized as the savior of the Tang Dynasty.
Pei Lian, Xiao Yu, Chen Shuda, Yu Wenshi and these four people can't say that they are not talented, they still have ability, and they have indeed made a lot of contributions to Datang. However, except for Xiao Yu, who has real talent and real learning, no one else is enough to become the minister of a country. But even Xiao Yu is still much inferior to Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Wei Zheng, and Ma Zhou.
Li Shimin is full of ambition, he has to reform after he succeeds to the throne, the prime minister is the brain of the country, with Li Shimin's character, it is impossible to sit back and watch Pei Lian, Chen Shuda, Yu Wenshi and these people stand in the pit and not.
Pingyang is not ignorant of Li Yuan's problem, but the woman does not say that her father is short, and it is difficult to talk about it.
Just as Luo Shixin thought, Li Shimin returned to the East Palace Prince's Mansion and felt a big headache.
Li Yuan's intentions can be seen by Luo Shixin and Pingyang, how can Li Shimin not see it?
In the face of Li Yuan's actions, Li Shimin had a fire in his heart, and he couldn't vent it.
"What a Pei Lone! I, Li Shimin, underestimate you! ”
Li Shimin has a headache, since the victory of the heir, he has been handling the affairs of the family and the country as the crown prince, during which there are many deficiencies in the policy system, and drastic reforms are needed. At that time, he was not the emperor after all, even if he defeated Li Jiancheng and swallowed most of Li Jiancheng's strength, he still couldn't shake the strength of the imperial party. And the reform inevitably involves the interests of many people, and even such a good figure as Shang Ying was forced by the shape to the king of Qin Huiwen to break the car.
Li Shimin recognized the shape and waited for the day when he became emperor.
Seeing the arrival of the day of enthronement, Li Shimin was like a groom official on a candle night in a cave room, his pants were taken off, but the bride said that she was not suitable for sex because of the moonlight and moon......
That feeling...... Full of weakness.
Today, Li Yuan unintentionally said to Pei Lin that he was gracious, but he was worried that he Li Shimin would "communiqué personal vendetta": Li Shimin had a friend Liu Wenjing in the past, and he was ordered to open the Tang Dynasty, and when it came to seeking merit, he was the first, and no one could compare. It was because of the estrangement with Pei Lin that Li Yuan listened to Pei Lian's words and put him to death, and Li Shimin also fought a cold war with Li Yuan for this.
Recently, Li Shimin has been frequently transferred, and he has begun to install henchmen in various key positions, which has touched the uneasiness in Pei Lian's heart, and Li Yuan has also had tonight in order to take care of his old friends.
The key core figure that Li Shimin wants to move is Pei Lian, not that he still remembers Liu Wenjing's hatred, but that Pei Lian's ability is not enough to become the minister of a hundred officials and a country, and it is not beneficial to live in a vital position in the country.
As soon as Li Yuanlai came out like this, Li Shimin's reform plan was hindered little by little before it was implemented.
This matter involves Li Yuan, and he can't find someone to discuss it lightly.
Troublesome! (To be continued!)
