"I have to say that Li Shimin's trick is very high, and he has given certification and extrajudicial grace to give this group of people who are about to behead a new life and benefit the society."

"It was also Li Shimin's courage and generosity, and later the story of the Son of Heaven was widely circulated in the society, and the people were self-reliant, with enough food and clothing, and the crime rate dropped greatly."

"By the sixth year of Zhenguan, when the heyday of Zhenguan's rule was reached, there were only more than ten death row prisoners detained in Chang'an, which is in a country with a population of tens of millions, such a proportion, I have to admire Li Shimin's achievements in governing the world."

Li Shimin: An Ren is with the king for the people, if you don't do anything, people will be happy, and if you have more desires, people will suffer.

I don't believe that after so many uprisings, people will not take the people seriously? When the Sui Dynasty rioted, I knew that the people were the fundamental, if I couldn't restrain myself, if I didn't think about the people, I wouldn't be in this position for a long time!

Wei Zheng: Governing the country is like planting a tree, if the roots are not stable, the tree will fall, and the people have always been roots.

Qin Shi Huang: In this uprising, I found that I underestimated the power of the people, and if it wasn't for Hu Hai's accession to the throne, Daqin might have dispersed one day because of the people.

Wu Zetian: Your Majesty the First Emperor, it would be good to change the laws of Great Qin, and the moment you know that the Great Wall is to defend against foreign enemies, you are not a tyrant, and the only thing left is the criminal law.

Bao Zheng: When you are an emperor, you must first put the people first, and if it is not good for the people, it is not good for yourself.

"At the beginning of Li Shimin's reign, he did put the people first and restrained himself, which is an example for you."

"After Li Shimin fully saw the terrible and powerful power of the people, he always reminded himself that he must restrain his indulgence."

"In his own words: If you hurt the people, I won't do it."

"In the fourth year of Zhenguan, Li Shimin ordered the construction of the Qianyuan Palace in Luoyang as his future palace."

"At that time, Li Shimin had just ascended the throne, the national strength was weak, and the people had been oppressed by Yang Guang for too long and had not recovered."

"Therefore, when Li Shimin and the ministers decided on this matter, Zhang Xuansu immediately wrote to the emperor and told him that the common people had just suffered from Yang Guang's tyranny."

"Their families and money have suffered a lot of losses, where are the resources to build the Bank Palace."

"If a large amount of people and money are levied on the people now, their burden will be heavy."

"How is this different from Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty?"

When Li Shimin saw the setback, he immediately woke up to his behavior and the ministers around him and said: "I didn't think that the matter would be so serious, but fortunately someone reminded me, otherwise I don't know what kind of mistake I was going to make," and immediately canceled all construction projects at that time. ”

"In the sixth year of Zhenguan, the regime of the Tang Dynasty basically stabilized, the strength of the country was slowly recovering, and the life of the common people was better."

"Therefore, in order to show the great power of the Tang Dynasty, many ministers asked Li Shimin to hold a ceremony to seal the Zen, but Wei Zheng objected to this!"

Wei Zheng said: "Even if a normal person has been sick for a long time and has just recovered from treatment, he wants to carry a stone slab and walk hundreds of miles, which is impossible, now that the country is just a little better, we will enjoy this happy moment, the previous efforts will be in vain, and the hard-won popular will soon disappear." ”

Of course, this is what Li Shimin didn't want to see, so he immediately gave up the idea of sealing Zen.

"Li Shimin has always understood empathic thinking, and put people's preferences and daily behaviors within the scope of his own consideration."

"He thinks that decorating the palace to go to the swimming pool is what the emperor wants, and the common people don't like it."

"If the people don't want it, the emperor must give up, and during his reign, he gave up the construction of many palaces, which greatly reduced the burden on the common people."

"During the Zhenguan period, Li Shimin's thoughts on serving the people were visible everywhere."

"Everything he does is done in accordance with the principle of serving the people, the country is people-oriented, people are based on food and clothing, so that the people can prosper only if they have no worries about food and clothing."

"He also believes that the only thing that can make the people peaceful is that the emperor is wise."

"The emperor can only be happy if he is a common man, and if the emperor is mediocre, the common people will suffer."

"In order to give people a calm political environment, Li Shimin tried to save labor and fight."

"If a monarch can maintain a good way of governing his country, the people will be able to live and work in peace."

"In order to alleviate the suffering of the common people, Li Shimin ordered the number of officials to be reduced by 640."

"He also ordered more than 3,000 female officials to be released from the palace so that they could find their spouses."

"At the beginning of Li Shimin's succession to the throne, he planned to seal all the children of his family, but was blocked by the minister."

"In order to better appease the common people, Li Shimin attaches great importance to the selection and appointment of officials, and he takes whether he can treat the people well and the requirements for field inspection as the criteria for selecting and appointing officials."

"In order to implement this policy effectively, Li Shimin ordered that the names of all governors and assassins in various places should be written on stone tablets."

"And write below these names the good and evil results of these officials in their work, and record them as a standard of reward and punishment for these officials."

"Li Shimin's implementation of the people-oriented thinking is reflected in his humility and acceptance of the advice of his ministers."

"As a great emperor, he should know the suffering of the common people."

"Therefore, he called the local officials to the front of the main hall to learn about the lives of the people."

"In the process of understanding, Li Shimin discovered a lot of chaos in the early Tang Dynasty."

"A country can't be smooth forever, at the beginning of Zhenguan, Datang was still unstable, at this time there was a famine inside, and there were external troubles outside."

"People had to sell their children in order to make a living, which was completely legal in the society at that time."

"If it weren't for the compulsion of life, who would want to sell their own flesh and blood?"

"After Li Shimin learned about one of the phenomena, he decided to order the child to be bought back at the expense of the child, and the child was returned to his parents."

"This move fully demonstrates the emperor's determination to accumulate virtue and do good deeds for the country, and at the same time, it also allows us to see that the king of a country cares for the common people, and such an emperor will soon be supported by the people."

"The second point is that at the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, the people had just experienced a famine, and they were plagued by locust plagues."

"This situation gave a great reversal to the society at that time, mainly because we all knew that the crops everywhere after the locusts were in disarray, which dealt a big blow to the Tang Dynasty, which was still recovering economically."
