"In the treatment of Li Yuan, it was not implemented, because Li Yuan knew that the general trend had gone, and did not take the means of violent suppression of the King of Qin, but under the coercion of Wei Chi Jingde, he allowed the Qin King and his party to attack the East Palace again and cut down his own imperial grandson, that is, the son of the crown prince Li Jiancheng."

"It is conceivable that Li Shimin has been ruthless to his brother and nephew, if Li Yuan does not comply, the Qinwang group will definitely take the move of killing the monarch and usurping the throne."

"It is precisely because the act of persecuting Gaozu Li Yuan by force and killing his brother to almost exterminate the clan is intolerable by feudal etiquette and human morality, so Li Shimin, Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, will greatly tamper with historical records."

"Therefore, the so-called whistleblower deployed by the prince on the eve of the incident recorded in the old and new Tang histories is completely a cover for the long-term conspiracy, careful planning, and vicious attack of the Xuanwumen Change."

"As I said earlier, even if Li Yuan doesn't speak, but because Li Jiancheng is the prince, it is impossible to abolish the prince without mistake and make Li Shimin the prince."

"First of all, the reason why Li Yuan and his son seized the world at the end of the Sui Dynasty is because they are both wise and brave talents, and they have quite far-reaching vision and deployment."

"In many historical materials, Li Yuan and the old ministers discussed the move of appointing the king of Qin as the crown prince, you must know that the establishment of the prince of the feudal dynasty is a major national event, and the emperor cannot be arbitrary, not to mention that Li Jiancheng was canonized as the crown prince early, which also involves the abolition of the prince, for the Tang Dynasty, which has an unstable foundation, it will not mess up for no reason."

"Therefore, Li Yuan will never promise the so-called crown prince position to Li Shimin at will, which will inevitably regard the major affairs of the military state as child's play."

As for the so-called Li Yuan in later generations, he had "abolished the construction and was crowned the king of Shu" and added branches and leaves to it, but only omitted the previous sentence "I can't follow Emperor Wen of Sui".

"The meaning is very simple, Li Yuan knows the harm of abolishing the crown prince, and he has never even thought about abolishing the reserve."

In addition, for the struggle between the princes, Li Yuan has always favored and protected the prince, but repeatedly reprimanded the proud Li Shimin, who is known to be a soldier for a long time, and he is autocratic abroad, taught by scholars, and is not my former son." ”

"The simple translation is that my son has been holding heavy troops for too long, and he dominates one side, and there are people around him who are bewitched, which is very different from the beginning."

"More importantly, in the early Tang Dynasty, Li Yuan's three sons-in-law were already fighting like fire and water, and no matter from which angle Li Yuan started, it was impossible for Li Yuan to privately promise Li Shimin when Li Jiancheng was the crown prince, which is tantamount to adding fuel to the fire."

"From this, it can be seen that it is even possible that the record of Gaozu privately promising the king of Qin as the crown prince is a whitewash carried out by Tang Taizong in order to illegally seize the emperor's throne, if this is the case, it is very absurd and ridiculous, and it also further exposes the truth of the Xuanwumen Change."

"What I say is answered by history books, if the statements are different, I think I am talking about wild history, making up nonsense, but there are some ideas that I don't agree with, just like this battle, Tang Taizong was written as a little white rabbit, is Tang Taizong Li Shimin really such a person?"

"In the struggle with the crown prince and the king of Qi, Li Shimin has always been portrayed as a victim of grievances, and it seems that if he does not launch the Xuanwumen Change, he will be killed.

"In the records of the crown prince and the king of Qi plotting to kill Li Shimin, there are two of the most representative cases."

"First, Li Yuan and the crown prince Li Jiancheng, the king of Qin Li Shimin, and the king of Qi Li Yuanji were hunting in the south of the city, and the prince deliberately gave the king of Qin a fierce horse when distributing the horses, hoping to kill the king of Qin in the process of hunting."

"This matter is very ridiculous, regardless of the majesty and pomp of the royal hunt, even if Li Jiancheng has the opportunity to arrange for his subordinates to change horses, Li Shimin can fight well for decades, and has the riding skills of Zhaoling Eight Horses, he will not fail to see the clue at all."

"In other words, even if there is a fierce horse, it will be easily subdued by Li Shimin."

"Second, the crown prince and the king of Qi entertained Li Shimin to drink in the East Palace, but they poisoned the wine, causing Li Shimin to vomit several liters of blood after drinking, and later returned to his palace with the support of Li Shentong, the king of Huai'an."

"This incident is well described, and the scenes, locations, and witnesses are complete, which seems to have become empirical evidence that the crown prince and the king of Qi plotted to kill the king of Qin."

"But anyone with a little common sense will know that if you really want to kill Li Shimin, the king of Qin, the royal family has no shortage of effective poisons, why bother just vomiting blood after drinking, or the prince bought fake medicine?"

"It can be seen that the tampering of the history books by His Majesty Taizong of the Tang Dynasty has reached the level of madness, extremely degrading the intelligence of the crown prince and the king of Qi, and treating the people of later generations as young children, who can make up stories at will to deceive."

"In order to cover up the careful planning of the coup d'état, Tang Taizong recorded in the history books that he set up an ambush at Xuanwu Gate, thus echoing the hasty move in the previous article."

"But don't you know that the biggest flaw here is that it ignores the route of the prince and the king of Qi to enter the palace, and the Xuanwu Gate is not a necessary place for the two to enter the palace.

"If you want to determine the route of the prince and the king of Qi into the palace, it is necessary to clarify the residence of the prince and the king of Qi, and even the destination of entering the palace.

"And there are three routes to enter the Taiji Palace from the East Palace."

"First, major ceremonial activities start from the south gate of the East Palace, Jiafu Gate, and go west to enter the south gates of the Taiji Palace."

"Second, the general ceremonial activities start from the Yuande Gate at the north gate of the East Palace, and enter the Xuanwu Gate at the north gate of the Taiji Palace through the west inner courtyard."

"Third, daily walking is from the door on the wall of the East and West Palace, which is the so-called Tongxun Gate."

"Combined with the etiquette system seen in the early Tang Dynasty, King Qi definitely needs to go to the East Palace to make peace with the prince first, and then enter the Taiji Palace directly through the daily training gate, and will not pass through the so-called Xuanwu Gate at all."

"From this, it can be judged that the killing of the crown prince and the king of Qi by the soldiers of the king of Qin was not set up in an ambush at the Xuanwu Gate, but intercepted by a famous sword and gun."

"In other words, no matter which door the crown prince and King Qi go through, they will be blocked and killed by the well-prepared King Qin."

"As for the crown prince Li Jiancheng and the king of Qi Li Yuanji were killed, the soldiers of the East Palace and the Qi Palace's mansion rushed to the rescue, and at this time, the soldiers of the King of Qin retreated to the Xuanwu Gate to make it easier to resist."

"This also refuted Li Shimin's statement that he bought the Xuanwu Gate guard Chang He, but in the palace gate, the Xuanwu Gate guards were relatively negligent, and they were snatched by the soldiers of the King of Qin."

"The reason why the coup was named Xuanwu Gate is also to a large extent, Li Shimin relied on this gate to buy time, because the crown prince and the king of Qi were killed, and his subordinates stormed Xuanwu Gate with more than 2,000 people, at this time Li Shimin hurriedly sent Wei Chi Jingde to run to Li Yuan's side with swords."
