Chapter 576: Son of Destiny
The stele descends from the sky, and the golden light illuminates the sky. The people of the whole city are clearly visible.
Everyone was honestly on their knees, trembling. Some people are scared and some people are excited about the miracle in front of them.
Those who are afraid are naturally those who have ghosts in their hearts, and those who are excited have more thoughts.
Some people even saw such miracles, and some thoughts of immortality rose in their hearts, if Wang Xuanjing knew that someone thought of immortality, I was afraid that he would not be able to help but ridicule.
As the heir of King Haotian, the previous generations of the Wang family have not been immortal, why do you think you can live forever, with your own big face?
But those who fall into fantasy simply ignore these facts.
Liu Wuzhou was killed in front of countless people, nailed to the pillar of shame, and even left for 10,000 years.
At the end of a trial ceremony witnessed by countless people, outside Jinyang City, a stone tablet towered on the high ground, and this stone tablet would stand here for thousands of years afterward.
Anyone who dares to betray the Xia will be recorded on it.
Wang was very satisfied with the scene in front of him, and from now on, no matter who established the new dynasty, he would be in awe.
Wang Xuanjing met Fang Xuanling at the official office, but did not immediately reply to the solicitation of Li Shimin, the king of Qin. Li Shimin's talent, he saw it very clearly during this time.
In Wang Xuanjing's view, the current lord of Li Tang, Li Yuan, is not a qualified founding lord. During the period after coming to Jinyang, he had already figured out how Li Tang had said that Jinyang was lost.
For Li Yuanji, the king of Qi, Wang Xuanjing hated it deeply, and the things he did were no longer something that could be explained by the word stubborn.
It's completely tyrannical and cruel, and now it's just a king of Qi, guarding one side, and he can do so many things, if he becomes a vassal king in the future, the local people will definitely be struggling to make a living.
And how did Li Yuan deal with it? However, he reprimanded him painlessly and revoked his official position, and it didn't take long for him to be reinstated.
And what about the officials who advised the king of Qi and wrote to him? If it weren't for the advice of someone in the court, Li Yuan would have killed those officials who advised him at that time, and he would have to blame them for the loss of the annexed state.
In Wang Xuanjing's view, Li Yuan and Yang Guang have the same problem, that is, they don't treat ordinary people as human beings at all, and they attach great importance to the children of high-born families, and they despise the children of poor families who are not well-born.
At the same time, improper employment, unclear rewards and punishments, and indecision, it can be said that it is not the material of a founding monarch at all.
Now he is able to establish the Tang State as the emperor, partly because of his status, and partly because he has a good son!
In Wang Xuanjing's view, Li Shimin is brave and good at fighting, has a keen strategic vision, and at the same time is good at accepting advice, and has a benevolent heart for the people, this quality is completely the template of the founding king!
The only shortcomings are that he has a father who is not very reliable, and a brother who is good at internal affairs.
With Li Yuan here, even if Li Shimin is excellent, he can only be a courtier, plus there is a brother, when Li Yuan dies, it will be his brother who will take the throne. Unless his brother died in an accident, but Li Jiancheng was in good health, the probability of dying from illness was too low.
The most warlike and most suitable person cannot be the emperor, and he still contributes the most to pacifying the world. Even if he didn't want to be emperor himself, what about the group of people below him?
Those people followed him and spilled their blood, born and died, naturally they wanted high-ranking officials to be generous, and they were crowned with wives and sons, if they didn't have these, how could they stop.
And at that time, it will be impossible for them to change the courtyard, so there will only be one way to go to the dark.
Even if Li Shimin is unwilling, it is estimated that he will have to fight with Li Jiancheng.
Wang Xuanjing saw Li Tang's hidden dangers, although he was optimistic about Li Shimin, but he still did not make a decision immediately, he was going to go back and discuss with his brother.
After Liu Wuzhou's trial, there is one more issue that needs to be resolved. That is the belonging of Jinyang.
The Wang clan didn't think about occupying Jinyang, and after exterminating Liu Wuzhou, they were ready to leave, but who was Jinyang City going to hand it over?
Wang Xuanjing thought about it for a while, and finally handed over Jinyang to Li Shimin, after all, this was originally Li Tang's area.
As for Dou Jiande, he occupied the Taihang Eight Passes, and after the two sides eliminated Liu Wuzhou, Li Tang and Dou Jiande directly bordered. The relationship between the two parties, who could have cooperated before, has suddenly become delicate.
Dou Jiande occupied the Taihang Eight Passes, basically controlled the road to Shanxi, as long as he wanted, he could lead the army into Shanxi at any time, and Li Tang wanted to attack Hebei from here, he needed to break through the Taihang Eight Passes first.
Taihang Baguan is the road of communication between Jizhou and Bingzhou, most of which need to pass through Taihang Mountain, the road is difficult, and it is not easy to break through.
Now that it is mastered by Dou Jiande, Li Tang is naturally like a man.
After Wang Xuanjing led the army away, some friction began to appear between Li Tang and Dou Jiande.
But both sides were quite restrained, after all, they had just fought a big battle with Liu Wuzhou, and both sides consumed a lot of armaments, grain and grass, and the soldiers also needed to rest.
Both sides knew that they would then have a battle of life and death, with the winner dominating the north and the loser resting everything.
Wang Xuanjing returned to Huainan.
Wang Xuanze convened the Wang family's descendants to discuss.
By now, the form of the world has gradually begun to become clear, and now the ones with the best chance to unify the north are Li Tang and Dou Jiande. As for Wang Shichong, who occupies Luoyang, in the eyes of the Wang family, he is like a dry bone in the grave, and sooner or later he will be captured by both sides.
Li Mi of Wagangzhai because he killed Zhai Rang, which caused Wagangzhai to leave Germany, and a large number of soldiers and generals defected, and they no longer had the same momentum as before.
It can be easily eliminated by either side.
The south is also in chaos now, Du Fuwei occupies Jianghuai, and there are some grass kings in other places. And if you want to attack the north from the south, the difficulty is too high.
After all, not everyone is Wang and Liu Yu, who can do it in the south and in the north, and ride in foot.
Once the north is unified, the next step is to unify the world.
And at this time, another piece of news came, Shuzhong surrendered to Li Tang, and Li Tangbing directly obtained the land of Bashu without blood.
With Bashu as the rear, Li Tang's strength has been greatly improved, and now Dou Jiande is obviously not his opponent.
After Li Tang received support from Bashu, he immediately led his army to attack Luoyang. wants to solve Wang Shichong, open up the road to the east, and then destroy Dou Jiande.
Wang Shichong fought with Li Tang before, and his strength was already damaged, but now Li Tang's strength is stronger, and the form is naturally more crisis.
After Wang Xuanze learned that Bashu had surrendered to Li Tang, he sighed: "The destiny of heaven is in Li!" ”
