Chapter 60: Prosperity and Decline, but it doesn't have to be so thorough

The video continues to play.

[If Tang Xuanzong died before the Anshi Rebellion, he could definitely be called one of the greatest emperors in Chinese civilization. can even be compared with Tang Taizong, and I don't know what he wants to do if he has to live a few more years. 】

This paragraph made Li Longji's face extremely pale.

[Tang Xuanzong in his later years was really mediocre to the extreme, and he was completely two people when he was young.

In fact, this is also the saddest thing about humanity itself.

As he grows older, human beings themselves will gradually age, and you look at him as the same person, but the thoughts in his mind may be completely different from when he was young, and even if it is too much, he can become another person. 】

This passage made Liu Che, Li Shimin, Yang Jian and others, who were wise and martial when they were young and began to covet enjoyment in their later years, show embarrassed expressions.

[When he was young, Tang Xuanzong was also a wise and accomplished emperor, and he also created a prosperous era of Kaiyuan.

In his later years, Tang Xuanzong became a mediocre emperor, as for how to be mediocre, let's start to take stock one by one! 】

Li Longji's face was very ugly.

[First: Favor Concubine Wu Hui and appoint Li Linfu. 】

In Li Longji's world, Concubine Wu Hui's face suddenly turned pale.

[After creating the "Kaiyuan Prosperous Era", Tang Xuanzong Li Longji gradually began to be satisfied.

Li Longji began to work diametrically opposite to his previous style of hard work and frugality, becoming unable to listen to advice and indulging in pleasures. 】

[In the twenty-fifth year of Kaiyuan, Concubine Wu Hui colluded with Li Linfu and formed a party for personal gain.

Concubine Wu Hui slandered Li Longji's three sons, saying that the crown prince Li Ying, the king of Hubei Li Yao, and the king of light Li Ju were plotting against each other, so Li Longji abolished the three of them as concubines.

Moreover, Concubine Wu Hui was still blowing the pillow wind all the time, which directly led to Li Longji killing her three sons in the end. 】

"I'm not a fucking fool, is he?" Liu Bang couldn't understand it at all, so he scolded his mother directly.

When Liu Che saw this, he felt very uncomfortable in his heart.

Because the emperor of later generations told Liu Che that he forced the crown prince and queen to death in his later years, this was about to become his heart disease.

The scourge of witches is just an excuse, the fundamental reason is that the Wei family is too powerful, and it is also the power of the combination of internal ministers and foreign generals that the emperor fears the most.

Li Longji saw that he had killed his three sons, and his face was also full of disbelief. At the same time, he couldn't understand why he would become a completely different person in his old age.

[After Li Longji dismissed Zhang Jiuling and others, Li Linfu took the opportunity to climb to the stage.

This person is just like He Shen in later generations, bribing his close ministers, conspiring to frame him, and flattering him, coaxing Li Longji to be so free in the clouds that he didn't even go to court. 】

"Who is Hekun?"

Xuan Ye tried his best to make up for his historical knowledge during this time, but he was still sure that he had never heard of this person's name.

"Why does it sound like it's our Qing people??? Emperor Qianlong Aixin Jueluo Hongli suddenly felt that this name seemed to have a secret connection with himself?

But whoever it was, at this moment, his name had been remembered by these emperors.

[Second: After Concubine Wu Hui died, Li Longji brought Yang Guifei into the palace, and favored Yang Guifei's brothers and sisters without a bottom line. 】

[After Concubine Wu Hui died of illness, Li Longji slept restlessly day and night, although there were many beauties in the harem, none of them could satisfy him, and the history recorded "the beauty of the harem, none of them liked it".

Later, Li Longji heard that Yang Yuhuan, the concubine of Shouwang Li Mao, was beautiful and gorgeous, so he ignored etiquette and turned her into his concubine after a divine operation. 】

It is still the tenth year of Kaiyuan, and Li Mao has not yet been named King Shou, but this does not affect him to wear a green hat from his father Li Longji.

Concubine Wu Hui didn't expect that she would die early, let alone that after her death, her son would be cuckolded by the emperor, and Concubine Wu Hui even had the idea of dying with Li Longji.

However, the video did not take into account their thoughts, and was still playing firmly.

[Third: greedy for enjoyment, arrogant and lascivious. 】

[During the Tianbao period, Tang Xuanzong began to become arrogant and lascivious, and spendthrift.

He rewarded countless people for the harem, and in order to do what he liked, "the annual tribute was tens of billions of extra money, which was stored in the inner treasury for the palace banquet", and also told Xuanzong: "This is not for rent, no advance funds." ”】

[Yang Guozhong deceived Li Longji that the granary was full, and he believed it so easily, and he didn't send anyone to verify the real situation.

Yang Guozhong exchanged the grain for cloth and silk and handed it to Li Longji, and then Li Longji rewarded and squandered it with his wealth, but he didn't know that it was all money in exchange for food! 】

[In order to please Yang Guifei, Li Longji used more than 700 people to make clothes for him;

In order to let her eat her favorite lychee, Li Longji even ordered the opening of thousands of miles of tribute road from Lingnan to the capital Chang'an, so that the lychee could be quickly transported to Chang'an by fast horse in time. 】

Li Shimin's eyelids kept shaking, and he scolded fiercely: "Who doesn't learn from your special mother, go and learn from that Zhou Youwang??? I'll have to kill you later, a guy who lacks a heart! ”

[Fourth: Appoint alien races to guard the border, and eventually lure wolves into the house!] 】

[At the beginning of An Lushan's army to the south, the road was like a bamboo! 】

[At this time, Tang Xuanzong, who was almost seventy years old, received the news as soon as possible, but he didn't take it seriously.

He even only smiled contemptuously in the court and commented: "An Lushan, this little fat man, how dare he rebel!" ”】

[Actually, the Anshi Rebellion, which destroyed the Tang Dynasty, should not have lasted for so many years...... On the eve of An Lushan's rebellion, it was the best opportunity!

However, Xuanzong is so crazy, he is conceited to the extreme, and he can't listen to people's persuasion at all!

It wasn't until there were more and more battle reports and the enemy army was getting closer and closer that Xuanzong realized: "An Lushan, this little fat man, is really going to rebel!" ”】

[However, Xuanzong Xuanzong immediately made a remedy and enabled Feng Changqing and Gao Xianzhi to guard Luoyang.

These two generals, known as the double walls of the empire, although they have strong military capabilities, it is difficult for Qiao women to cook without rice, and in a hurry, the defenders in Luoyang City are not An Lushan's opponents at all, so the two decided to retreat and defend Tongguan, ready to fight a beautiful defensive battle.

If he has been doing what the two of them think, An Lushan will definitely be difficult to break through Tongguan, and may even be wiped out by the elite of the Tang Dynasty who rushed to support.

However, at this critical moment, Xuanzong, the old guy, made another move!

He still thinks it's just a small An Lushan?

How could Feng Changqing and Gao Xianzhi lose Luoyang and run to Tongguan to shrink up to avoid the battle? Isn't this beating me Datang and hitting me in the face of Li?

So, the furious Xuanzong brazenly ordered: "These two incompetent wastes retreat privately to avoid the war, and they should be killed!" ”

So he sent the eunuch Bian Lingcheng to ride a fast horse to Tongguan to behead Feng Changqing and Gao Xianzhi.

I have to say that the old man Xuanzong is really ruthless when he kills his own people! 】

Li Shimin couldn't stand it anymore, he stretched out his hand to cover his face, his face was full of despair, "I am such a fool in the Tang Dynasty, I really want to die in heaven!! ”
