On the night of the first day of the sixth lunar month, Li Shimin and Guanyin were in the study of the Vertical Arch Palace, discussing where to do anything to Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji.

According to Li Shimin's idea, the place of action was chosen in the Taiji Palace.

Guanyin and Li Shimin looked at the sketch of the imperial city and carefully analyzed it.

------

The official office area in the south of the imperial city is no. This is outside the palace.

The outer court in the south of Miyagi is not good. The situation here is similar to that outside the palace.

The inner court in the middle of the palace city is too close to the palace of the king of Qi, and the soldiers go in, and there is nowhere to hide.

All that remains is the harem where the concubines live.

In the harem, except for Li Yuan and the eunuchs of the Inner Servant Province, no other men were allowed to enter without Li Yuan's permission.

------

Speaking of doing it in the harem, Guanyin felt that it was not very likely to be implemented here.

Li Shimin said firmly to Guanyin, "It's here, so that it will be unexpected, unprepared, and have a greater chance of success, and can easily get rid of the eldest brother and fourth brother with the least cost and sacrifice."

"Moreover, the harem is secret, and it is difficult for outsiders to know what happened, so that the rumors of disturbance can be avoided in the future."

------

Next, Li Shimin told Guanyin in detail his thoughts, including how to persuade Li Yuan to make arrangements, how to deploy troops, how to deal with the incident, and so on.

Guanyin listened carefully to what Li Shimin said, and said with emotion, "It seems that whether this matter can be successful or not, it is Grandpa who plays a decisive role."

Li Shimin said, "You can succeed without Grandpa's consent, but I don't know how many people will lose their lives and how many will shed blood?"

------

After Li Shimin and Guanyin agreed on the location of the operation, they then discussed every detail of the implementation plan.

First, they discussed how to persuade Li Yuan to act according to Li Shimin's intentions.

Then there is the discussion on how to deploy specific actions on the second day.

Guanyin asked Li Shimin, "Brother Shimin, do you want to gather your confidants tomorrow and then make detailed discussions and arrangements?"

------

Li Shimin pondered for a while, and looked at Guanyin, "It is essential to have a secret discussion with your confidants, and we must discuss with them whether there are any loopholes in the plan we have come up with."

"I have already thought about the people who will participate in tomorrow's secret business, including Yu Wenshiji, Gao Shilian, Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Changsun Shunde, Changsun Wuxian, Wei Chigong, Cheng Zhijie, Qin Qiong, Duan Zhixuan, Zhang Gongjin, Ding Jikan, and Changsun Zhan."

Li Shimin said as he wrote down the names of these people on a piece of paper.

------

Guanyin listened to the list of personnel that Li Shimin said, and she and Li Shimin thought the same as the others, but there were two people Guanyin who didn't expect it.

These two people, one is Sun Shunde, the patriarch of Guanyin's maid, and the other is her third brother Sun Wuxian.

At this time, Guanyin realized that Li Shimin had thought more carefully and thoroughly than her.

If you think about it carefully, the patriarch Sun Shunde and the third brother Sun Wuxian are too important in this operation.

------

The patriarch Sun Shunde is now the general of Zuo Xiaowei, in charge of the imperial city and the guards in the Taiji Palace, and at the time of the incident, he will be responsible for the defense of the imperial city and the palace city, ensuring that the imperial city and the palace city are under Li Shimin's control.

The third elder brother, Sun Wuxian, is now the general of the prison guard, responsible for the entry and exit of personnel in the imperial city and the palace city, and only he can keep track of the movements of the personnel entering and leaving the imperial city and the palace city at any time.

One is responsible for the guards of the Imperial City and the Imperial City, and the other is responsible for checking and registering the personnel who enter and exit the Imperial City and the Imperial City, and the responsibilities of these two people are too important.

-------

Li Shimin and Guanyin discussed everything, and it was late at night.

When the two of them arrived at this hour, they both felt a little hungry in their stomachs, and Li Shimin didn't want to let people prepare supper at night, so he and Guanyin finished eating the melons and fresh peaches on the low table.

Although it was late at night, it was still very hot in the study, and it was really impossible to sleep while lying on the couch in the study.

Guanyin helped Li Shimin put on clothes, shouted Hsinchu and Zhanhua, and the four of them returned to Qinglu.

The garden was much cooler, Li Shimin and Guanyin simply rinsed it with warm water before they hugged each other and fell asleep in the green house.

------

Li Shimin and Guanyin were busy until late at night before resting.

In the Tai Chi Palace, Li Yuan had no sleep all night, and he had to make the most important decision in his life.

This is the most important moment that Li Yuan has faced since Jinyang raised his army.

When Jinyang raised troops, Li Yuan's choice was related to the future and fate of the Li family.

But this time, it is related to whether or not Li Tang Jiangshan can be stabilized.

------

The ninth year of Wude is Li Yuan's natal year, and Li Yuan is sixty years old this year.

Confucius said: "I have five out of ten and am determined to learn, thirty and stand, forty and not confused, fifty and know the destiny of heaven, sixty and obedient, seventy and do what I want, do not exceed the rules."

At this time, Li Yuan had reached the "year of ear shun".

The so-called ear shun year means that when people reach this age, as long as they listen to other people's words, they can judge the truth and falsehood, and they can correctly judge the pros and cons of things, and can treat them correctly.

------

After decades of polishing and hard work, Li Yuan has reached the pinnacle of the highest power in the world, and he has seen the spring of the world.

At this age, Li Yuan's physical desires are fading day by day, and his psychological desires have been satisfied.

In Li Yuan's future life journey, what should he value the most? It is the inheritance of the great throne, it is to ensure that Li Tang's country is immortal, and it is his own ancestors and himself who can enjoy the offerings and sacrifices of their descendants after 10,000 years.

------

In the last years of Wude, Li Yuan's heart was devastated.

The three adult sons fought endlessly for the throne, and recently heard about the betrayal of his two sons and the favorite concubine.

Although Li Yuan is in the position of the Son of Heaven and is the supreme in the world, he is a little disheartened and unhappy to eat all day.

Xiao Yu and Chen Shuda have repeatedly admonished Li Yuan, "If you keep making decisions, you will be chaotic, and in the end it will cause trouble to Xiao Wall, father and son are not close, and brothers kill each other."

Feng Deyi also said to Li Yuan, "The King of Qin has high merit and should be made the crown prince, otherwise it will be difficult to live under the prince for a long time."

------

Li Yuan realized that the matter of who would inherit the unification could not be delayed any longer, and it was time to make a decision, and he also had a different idea, that is, to pass on the throne to Li Shimin while he was still alive.

At the critical moment of deciding who would inherit the throne, Li Yuan couldn't sleep at night, and he went through the dynasties one by one in his heart, trying to find some lessons from the ancients.

Li Yuan found that since ancient times, emperors have passed on the throne to heirs only after their deaths, and there is no emperor who has been a son when he is alive.

------

However, there was one person who made Li Yuan's heart shine.

This person was King Wuling of Zhao during the Warring States Period, and he passed the throne to his youngest son Gongzi He when he was alive, which was later King Zhao Huiwen.

King Wuling of Zhao first set up his eldest son Gongzi Zhang as the crown prince, and later changed his younger son Gongzi He as the crown prince, and when he was still healthy, he placed the throne in Gongzi He, and King Wuling of Zhao was honored as the "master father".

------

Zhao Wuling Wang Chan was located in the queen of Gongzi He, and he couldn't bear to kill his eldest son, Gongzi Zhang, so he divided it into Daijun.

Unexpectedly, four years later, Gongzizhang rebelled, and Zhao Guoquan's ministers Gongzicheng and Li Dui led the troops to defeat Gongzizhang. Gongzi Zhang fled to King Zhao Wuling and begged for mercy, but King Zhao Wuling couldn't bear to kill Gongzi Zhang.

------

In this way, Gongzi Cheng and Li Dui are in an embarrassing situation, and once Gongzi Zhang eases up in the future, Gongzi Cheng and Li Dui may face the danger of extinction.

Therefore, after discussing with Li Dui, Gongzicheng sent people to rush into the "Dune" palace, killed Gongzizhang, and besieged King Zhao Wuling in the "Dune" palace, and finally until King Zhao Wuling starved to death, which is known as the "Dune Rebellion" in history.

-------

The surrounding area of Shanxi used to be the land of "Ancient Zhao", and it was also the foundation of Li Yuan's creation of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Yuan has long been familiar with the history of King Zhao Wuling, and now he thinks that there are lessons to learn from, and there are also lessons of blood.

King Zhao Wuling attaches too much importance to the relationship between father and son, and it is difficult to make a decision in front of the relationship between father and son.

As a result, the generation of male lords who laid the foundation of Zhao's strength and prosperity were starved to death in the Dune Palace.

------

With the experience and lessons of King Zhao Wuling to learn from, Li Yuan had already made up his mind in his heart, he not only wanted to pass on the throne to his best son, but also ruthlessly swept away future troubles for Li Shimin.

Before Li Yuan, there were two people in Chinese history who were called "Emperor Taishang".

One is Qin Shi Huang's father, Qin Zhuang Xiangwang, whose title of "Taishang Huang" was posthumously honored by Qin Shi Huang after he was called emperor.

The other is Liu Taigong, the father of Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, who is revered as the "Emperor Taishang", which is stained with the light of his son Liu Bang.

------

History, someone has to create it.

Now Li Yuan already has the idea of being the emperor.

Li Yuan can also be regarded as an emperor who has no one before and no one after him.

But he is one of the most underrated emperors in Chinese history.

------

Li Yuan was good at forbearance, and was repeatedly underestimated by Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty, which led to Li Yuan's self-respect, and finally replaced the Sui Dynasty and created the Li Tang Dynasty.

What Li Yuan did did not conform to the taste of later emperors and patriarchal religions, and was repeatedly underestimated by history.

In the era of paying attention to loyalty to the monarch, Li Yuan, as a courtier, rebelled against the owner, and finally became the emperor, which is not worth writing about in the history books.

In the era when the patriarchal law of the Rites and Religions emphasized that "the elders are not virtuous", Li Yuan often had the heart of abolishing the elders and establishing the young, which is not worth mentioning in the history books.

In the era when every emperor wanted to work until he died of old age, when Li Yuan was still healthy, Zen was located in his son Li Shimin, which is not worth writing about in the history books.

Li Yuan did not conform to the taste of the emperors of the past dynasties, the taste of Confucianism, and the taste of the patriarchal law of etiquette and religion, so it was inevitable that he would be underestimated by the history books repeatedly.

------

It was on this sleepless night that Li Yuan made up his mind and was ready to give up the supreme emperor's position; Prepare to abandon the relationship between father and son; Prepare to break through the patriarchal laws of the Rites that bound him.

Li Yuan wanted to use his sacrifice and determination to lay the foundation for the strength and prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, in exchange for the era when China was the most powerful since the Han Dynasty.
