As a graduate student in the Department of History, I still have a certain understanding of what Emperor Tang Zong said about this situation.

Although it is not recorded in the official history, it has been circulated in folklore and wild history for more than 1,000 years.

It is said that when Tang Taizong Li Shimin was old, he selected a stunning woman with both talent and appearance from the folk draft.

When Li Shimin saw this woman for the first time, he was fascinated by this woman, and after giving her the title of talent, he included her in the palace.

Later, when Li Shimin's son Li Zhi, that is, the crown prince at that time, and later Tang Gaozong, came to the harem to meet Li Shimin and greet Li Shimin, Li Shimin happened to be busy dealing with national affairs at that time, so he asked Li Zhi to wait in the palace for a while.

And while Li Zhi was waiting in the side hall of the harem, Li Shimin, who had just been included in the harem, personally brought some refreshments and a basin of water to Li Zhi.

Before using refreshments, you must wash your hands with the water in the basin, and the talented and beautiful woman knelt on the ground, raised the copper basin with the water with both hands, and asked the prince Li Zhi to wash his hands.

At first, Li Zhi didn't care, and regarded this talented person as an ordinary palace maid, but when he washed his hands, Li Zhi inadvertently looked at this talented person, and found that this talented person actually had the appearance of a shy flower and a closed moon, and he was sinking into a fish and a goose.

At this time, Li Zhi's heart was distracted, and he couldn't help but sprinkle a few drops of water in the basin on the face of this talented man with his hand.

Originally, Li Zhi thought that this talented person was just an ordinary palace maid with beautiful appearance, but what Li Zhi didn't expect was that this talented person was not only beautiful, but also able to export poems, and was an out-and-out talented woman.

Just after Li Zhi sprinkled the water on her face, the talented man said in a delicate voice: "Before the Jinhui Fengyun Meeting, first Mu Wang Yuluen." ”

As the crown prince of the current dynasty, for Li Zhi, what he wants to hear most is that he can ascend to the throne as he wishes.

At this time, I heard that this talented man not only spoke neatly to the battle, but also made him an emperor between words.

This made this talented person establish a very important position in Li Zhi's mind.

Later, as soon as he had the opportunity, Li Zhi went to the harem to find this talented man under the pretext of meeting his father Li Shimin.

After going back and forth, Li Zhi got together with this talented man, and Li Zhi also knew very well that this talented man was the woman of his father Li Shimin, and the two of them were together, which was a big rebellion that messed up people's ethics.

Li Shimin already knew about this before he died, but among his sons, in Li Shimin's opinion, only Li Zhi was suitable to be the emperor, so before he died, Li Shimin put the talented man into the nunnery, or let Li Zhi ascend to the emperor's throne.

Later, Li Zhi ascended the throne and went to the nunnery as soon as possible and welcomed the talented man into the harem.

As we all know, this talented person who has one leg with Li Shimin and Li Zhi, both father and son, is the famous empress Wu Zetian in history.

Later, Li Zhi died, Wu Zetian usurped the throne, and after becoming a generation of empresses, in order to consolidate her position as emperor, she issued a killing order to kill the family surnamed Li, and almost killed Li Shimin's descendants.

Li Shimin, as the ghost emperor of the Ten Palaces Yan Jun, although he came to the Netherworld after his death, because he often dealt with the Ten Palaces Yan Jun, Li Shimin still knew what happened to his descendants.

And after learning what happened to his descendants from the Ten Palaces Yan Jun, Li Shimin could only regard this as his own retribution for what he had done at the beginning.

At the beginning, he framed Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji for defiling his father Li Yuan's harem, but his son Li Zhi defiled his harem.

At the beginning, he inadvertently almost killed the descendants of Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, and after Wu Zetian ascended the throne, he almost killed his descendants cleanly.

To some extent, this is indeed a cycle of cause and effect, and the retribution is on him and his descendants.

But in my opinion, according to what Li Shimin did to his biological brother, the retribution and punishment he received were far from enough.

Even if he has great merit and great luck, and he is the son of destiny chosen by God, it does not mean that he can not escape punishment if he makes a mistake.

Thinking of this, I said to Li Shimin Zhengse: "Your Majesty Taizong, please forgive me for speaking more directly, in my opinion, with your actions of framing your own brothers and killing them, the retribution and punishment you have received is far from enough!" ”

"I don't know for what reason the Ten Palaces Yan Jun made you a ghost emperor, but according to my standards, with what you do, you are not qualified to occupy a city in the Netherworld and become a ghost emperor who manages hundreds of millions of yin souls!"

Hearing my words, everyone nodded one after another, even the Overlord Ghost Emperor nodded silently there.

Although the subordinates of the Tang Sect Ghost Emperor were a little unconvinced, what Li Shimin had done was there, so that they couldn't talk about it even if they wanted to.

In fact, I also felt very puzzled at this time, because in my opinion, with the usual style of the Ten Palaces Yan Jun, there is no reason to crown Li Shimin as a ghost emperor when he knows what Li Shimin has done.

But the Ten Palaces Yan Jun enshrined Li Shimin as a ghost emperor, what is going on?

If even the Ten Halls of Yan Monarch can't be fair and just, then is there still fairness and justice in this world?

And just when I was thinking like this, the embarrassment on Li Shimin's face gradually receded, and he puffed up his chest and said: "What I do, I know very well. ”

"When I had just died and was introduced into the underworld by the Soul Hook Messenger, even I thought that I would be punished by the Ten Halls of Yan Jun and would be sent to the eighteenth layer of hell."

"But what I didn't expect was that the King of the City of the Ten Palaces of the Yama King personally received me, and His Majesty the King of the City also told me that he said that my first three lives were good people in the third life, and I had accumulated countless merits, so I was able to be chosen by God in this life and became a person of destiny."

"As a person chosen by God for the Mandate of Heaven, I have great merit and great luck, so the Yin Soul that I turned into after my death is eligible to be crowned as a Ghost Emperor and become an existence equal to their Ten Palaces Yan Jun."

Hearing the Ghost Emperor of the Tang Sect say this, I couldn't help but ask him: "Then it's because you are a good person in the third world and a son of destiny, so even if you do evil things and frame and kill your own brother, won't you be punished by the Ten Palaces Yan Jun?" ”

Hearing my words, the Ghost Emperor of the Tang Sect shook his head and said: "I will not escape what I have done, so even if the Ten Palaces Yan Jun wants to crown me as a ghost emperor, I will also tell me what I have done." ”

As soon as the Ghost Emperor of the Tang Sect said this, we felt even more strange, since Li Shimin had told everything he had done, why did the Ten Palaces Yan Jun still crown him as the Ghost Emperor?

As soon as I thought of this, I asked directly.

"Your Majesty Taizong, do you mean to say that even if the Ten Palaces Yan Jun knew what you had done, they would ignore you and crown you as a ghost emperor?" I asked the Tang Sect Ghost Emperor.

The Ghost Emperor of Tang Sect did not answer me directly, but said indifferently: "At that time, I told His Majesty the King of the City what I had done, but His Majesty the King of the City did not say that he would punish me, but asked me instead, why am I unwilling to let Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji go, and I must kill them?" ”

"I have thought about this question raised by His Majesty the King of the City for a long time, but I have never thought of an answer, and in the end I can only tell His Majesty the King of the City, saying that I have an innate hatred for Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji!"

"Since I was sensible, as soon as I saw Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, I couldn't help but have an urge to kill the two of them."

"Later, the three of us brothers were involved in a struggle for power and position, and my desire to kill the two of them became stronger and stronger."

"When the Xuanwumen Revolution broke out, I had a justifiable excuse, naturally I would not show mercy to the two of them, and I would kill the two of them without hesitation!"

"Although it has been more than a thousand years since the Xuanwumen Incident, as long as I think of the scene at that time, and the scene when I shot Li Jiancheng with an arrow, I still have a feeling of joy and dripping."

"I can tell you in no uncertain terms that although I killed my brothers with my own hands and framed them, I have never regretted it!"

When he said this, the gaze of the Ghost Emperor of the Tang Sect swept over the faces of all of us one by one, and the momentum was as if he had done something righteous and awe-inspiring and doing the right thing for the heavens.

This makes me wonder, why is the Ghost Emperor of Tang Sect so confident?

The Ten Palaces Yan Jun knew what the Tang Sect Ghost Emperor had done, but he still crowned him as a ghost emperor?

Could it be that as I guessed before, what other cause and effect was involved between Li Shimin and his three brothers?

Li Shimin said that he was a good man in the third life, does that mean that in Li Shimin's previous life, what cause and effect was involved between Li Jianchen and Li Yuanji's previous life and his previous life?

If it is said that my phase master level has broken through to the heavenly level and become a heaven-level god, then I can deduce the cause and effect of Li Shimin and his three brothers in the previous life, but now my phase master level has not broken through the heavenly level, so I can only confirm my guess with Li Shimin.

I saw me ask Li Shimin: "Your Majesty Taizong, you said that you have an innate hatred for Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, and you want to kill the two of them since you were sensible, does that mean that there is any karmic entanglement between your previous life and the previous life of the two of them?" ”

Hearing my words, Li Shimin's eyes were a little surprised, and then he nodded heavily, and then told us about the cause and effect between the three of them in their previous lives.

I saw Li Shimin say: "The three of us in the previous life were not brothers, but they were brothers of the opposite sex who married Jinlan. ”

"Among the three of us, I am the eldest, Li Jiancheng was the second in his previous life, and Yuan Ji was the third in his previous life."

"In that life, I had a wealth that rivaled the country's wealth, but I was a philanthropic person who regarded money as dung."

"Just after the three of us became brothers of the opposite sex, based on my trust in the two of them, I handed over the work of repairing bridges and roads to the two of them."

"But what I didn't expect was that the two of them took advantage of my trust in them to embezzle a lot of money that I used to build bridges and roads to help the poor."
