Chapter 637: Brotherly Rivalry

"It's going to rain in the world, my mother is going to get married, so let's let him go with him!" Li Xin finally sighed deeply and said: "In the future, this king will choose one of the heirs born to Princess Nanyang or Princess Yuerong to inherit the bloodline of the Yang family, so as to live up to Emperor Wu's kindness to this king." ”

"Prime Minister Shengming." Everyone spoke one after another, but as for what was in their hearts, no one knew.

"Qin Tianjian, choose the auspicious period, the ceremony of the Ministry of Rites, this king is going to ascend the throne and become the emperor." Li Xin looked around and said: "Zhongqing also has another reward, which will be sent to Zhongqing's mansion in the near future, which can be regarded as support for this king over the years." ”

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, long live, long live, long live." Pei Shiju and others fell to the ground one after another, long live the mountain, no matter what, this is the end of an era, but also the beginning of an era, what role will everyone play in this era, it depends on everyone's ability, after everyone got up, they glanced at each other, at least they all showed a smile on their faces.

"Wude Palace, the Ministry of War, these days also have to prepare, the three armies are fighting outside, the reward should not be slack, I can have today in Guanzhong, it is your credit, but it is also the credit of those soldiers." Li Xin looked around and said: "The soldiers who died in the war should be sent to the martyrs' shrine, the bones should be sent back to their hometowns, there must be no less copper money in terms of pensions, and the court should support those who should be supported. ”

"Yes." Ji Gang said loudly.

Everyone listened to Li Xin's murderous anger, and his face suddenly tightened very closely, in Li Xin's dynasty, there were few people who destroyed the three clans, but this time, Li Xin did not hesitate to shout to destroy the three clans, which shows how much Li Xin attaches importance to this matter.

"Let's go back to Beijing!" Li Xin waved his hand and said.

"The prime minister returns to Beijing." The pro-soldiers outside roared loudly. In an instant, there was an honor guard army rising up to escort Li Xin back to Chang'an, while the other officials of the Wude Hall and the Wuying Hall were quickly busy, and after the war, there were many things to do. Of course, Li Xin is still very comfortable in Chang'an City, there are too many capable people under him, just a casual order, and all the work is carried out in an orderly manner, but he is hiding in the back house, or practicing martial arts. or teach the princes, or do something that is not shy or impatient, and even when there is nothing to do, they will go to Empress Xiao and Shen Ruyan to steal fish, and their lives are still quite happy.

Contrary to Li Xin's treatment, Li Shimin, who was in Taiyuan City at the moment, had a gloomy face, and Li Shimin, who had returned from the Battle of Hedong, quickly abandoned the army after hearing about Liu Wenjing's rebellion. He led the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry to Taiyuan. Hurry up and hurry, but still didn't save Liu Wenjing.

"Prince, dare to ask Liu Wenjing what crime he committed and why he was killed in the vegetable market. And there are more than 30 members of the family, all of whom were killed cleanly, he is the hero of the Taiyuan army! When I left Beijing, I had an appointment with my father. On the day of his return, Liu Wenjing's case will be tried again. Why is Liu Wenjing beheaded now? "Li Shimin has just returned to Taiyuan, and he hasn't even returned to his mansion. rushed to the East Palace to look for Li Jiancheng.

"King Qin, this is a decision made by the emperor and the crown prince, what? Are you questioning the emperor's decision? Wang Qi said with a cold snort.

"Humph! This king just wants to know what crime Liu Wenjing has committed? Is this also problematic? Li Shimin snorted coldly and glanced at everyone, the Taiyuan Wang family, Boling Cui, Qinghe Cui and even the Bohai Gao family, if you add the Wenxi Pei family, most of the families in this world have become the prince's people, Li Shimin was angry in his heart, he was fighting bloodily outside, and no one came to take refuge in himself and help himself, but these big families came to help Li Jiancheng, how could he Li Jiancheng, how could he have so many people to support him.

"Hey, second brother, I don't want to kill him either, but his crime of rebellion has indeed been investigated, it was his concubine who raised it, and even his subordinates said that Liu Wenjing was rebellious and showed signs of rebellion, so his father had to kill him." Li Jiancheng actually regretted it in his heart, after all, Liu Wenjing was a hero, so it was a pity to kill him like this. But seeing Li Shimin's appearance of questioning himself like this, he was still very angry in his heart. This Li Shimin didn't take him as a prince in his eyes at all.

"Hehe, a concubine, a subordinate, accuses Liu Wenjing of rebellion, he rebels, Liu Wenjing has no soldiers in his hands, how can he rebel? Doesn't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince think this matter is a bit ridiculous? Li Shimin laughed.

"So he's rebellious." Wang Jue said calmly: "No matter what, even if there are signs of rebellion in his words, it should be killed." His Royal Highness the King of Qin, Liu Wenjing's rebellion is a foregone conclusion, and I am afraid that it is too much to discuss this matter at this time. ”

"Liu Wenjing can't die in vain like this, he is the hero of my Great Zhao." Li Shimin glanced at everyone viciously, from everyone, he knew how Liu Wenjing died, he was unjustly killed, and the reason why he was unjustly killed was because of himself, Li Jiancheng saw Liu Wenjing's help to him, so he used this trumped-up charge to cut off one of his arms.

Li Shimin felt that his heart was chilling, in order to consolidate his power, Li Jiancheng had forgotten what a prince should do, and put the major affairs of the military state on the battle of will, without a broad mind, how to govern the world, how to face Li Xin's attack, Li Shimin nodded, he turned around and left, leaving the East Palace, here he felt that Da Zhao was constantly weakening, and he had a sense of crisis, as if he saw the signs of Li Xin's army coming in the near future.

"The people of the world are angry." Looking at the back of Li Shimin's departure, Li Jiancheng sighed a little and said: "If it weren't for him being aggressive, Gu really wouldn't have wanted to get to this point." ”

"Your Royal Highness, the crown prince is the prince of the country, and the future son of heaven should be inherited by the eldest son, although the king of Qin is talented, but after all, he is not the eldest son, so he should not have the idea that he should not have." Wang Qi persuaded him. They are all children of the family, and the patriarchal system that has been passed down for thousands of years is like this, and whoever touches these will offend the interests of these families. In their opinion, etiquette is more important than anything else. What's more, Li Jiancheng himself is also very good, and his methods of handling political affairs in the DPRK and China are also extremely sophisticated and mature, and he is a rare candidate for the emperor. In this case, why did these people choose Li Shimin, who has an adventurous spirit?

Li Shimin entered the Qin Palace's mansion with a gloomy face, Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng and Dugu Huaien had been waiting in the Qin Palace, and when they saw Li Shimin's face, they knew that something was not quite right, and the two brothers might have quarreled.

The faces of the three of them were different, but they sat there quietly, Li Shimin took a deep breath and said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really in a hurry, thinking about eradicating my wings so early, and he found Liu Wenjing as soon as he came up, but he didn't want to think about what kind of person Liu Wenjing was, that was the hero of the founding of the country, kill Liu Wenjing, let the ministers in the court think, let such a prince be in charge of the world, can it make the country and the people safe, can it resist the wolf-like army of Li Xin?" Li Shimin's heart is not false, but more disappointed.

"This shows that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is afraid, afraid that King Qin's power is getting bigger and bigger, and it has threatened his position." Dugu Huaien said gloomily: "The greater the power of King Qin in the army, the more jealous His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is, but Your Highness, the power in the army must not be given up, this is the foundation of your life." ”

"It seems that the relocation of the capital has become a foregone conclusion, the emperor doesn't know, but the prince definitely agrees to move the capital, otherwise, His Royal Highness the prince will not rush to kill Liu Wenjing, this is to eradicate the voice of King Qin in the court." Fang Xuanling touched his beard and said, "As long as King Qin has no one to speak in the court, the crown prince will not worry that His Highness's forces will control the government." ”

"Although they agreed to move the capital, they will never let the king of Qin appear in the court, if I am the crown prince, I will move the capital to Hebei, and then let the king of Qin sit in Taiyuan, so that the king of Qin not only does not have any power in the court, but also has to resist the invasion of the Turks and Li Xin's army, and also clear the advantage of the king of Qin in Hebei." Wei Zheng said calmly.

"How's that to be?" Li Shimin's face changed, he looked at Wei Zheng and said. He only supported Li Yuan to move the capital, didn't he just want them to enter Hebei or Youzhou, that place was fought by himself, and most of the officials were his cronies, if Li Yuan really transferred himself out of Hebei, put him in Taiyuan, and stay in Taiyuan, then it would be hard, not only to prevent the Turks from crossing the Yanmen Pass, but also to resist Li Xin's attack, and there would be no chance to seize the world at all.

"Then let another person make a move, and now His Royal Highness the Prince's eyes are on His Highness, then find a way to divert His Royal Highness's eyes from His Royal Highness and fall on another person." Wei Zheng's eyes lit up and said, "King Qi, how is it?" ”

"King Qi's strength is a little weaker." Li Shimin thought about it, shook his head and said.

"Then help him ascend to the throne, let him get the soldiers and horses of Hebei, the king of Qi is so happy, greedy and cruel by nature, if he is allowed to gain power, he will definitely compete with the prince for power, this person does all the evil in Hebei, it will definitely bring trouble to the prince, and the king of Qin is in the Taiyuan area, he can recuperate and accumulate strength, Li Xin will also set his eyes on Hebei, and when he competes for the world in Hebei, the king of Qin can take the opportunity to seize the Bird Mouse Valley, and then, go south to attack Chang'an, and besiege Wei to save Zhao's strategy, maybe it can be successful." Wei Zheng said.

"In fact, His Royal Highness the Prince's first choice must be Taiyuan, followed by Shandong, let His Royal Highness seize Shandong first, and then transfer His Royal Highness to Taiyuan." Fang Xuanling also said.

"Let this king choose, then this king will choose Taiyuan." Li Shimin said with a gloomy face. (To be continued......)
