Li Shimin said without embarrassment: "Mencius said that the people are the most important, the community is second, and the king is the least. My Li family has been favored by the heavens, and I have the world, why? For a few years, the king's spirit dissipated and the tripod moved, why? If you are a king, if you don't think of your subjects in the world, even if you regard the emperor as an emperor, you will die without a place to die. A country is a big tree. In fact, the imperial court is the crown, the country is the work, and the people are the roots..."

Li Yuan glared at Li Shimin mockingly and said, "You're talking nonsense!"

Li Shimin continued to say disapprovingly: "The law of etiquette is determined by the sages. If the king lets his ministers die, it is disloyal if the ministers do not die. If the father tells the son to die, it is unfilial if the son does not die. However, the righteousness of the monarch and his ministers, and the love between father and son, are so mere." What can be limited by the word "li"? When a ruler regards his ministers as siblings, he will regard him as his heart; This is also what Mencius said. In troubled times, what is loyalty and traitor? My father was the founder of Tang Dynasty. What kind of loyalty can there be? You said that the king of the Sui Dynasty had no way and lost the world, and the destiny belonged to the Tang Dynasty, but the Li family ruled the world. In such words, it is okay to deceive the foolish people and women in Longjian. If you are a king, Think the same way, winning the world is easy, losing the world is only a matter of breath! With the support of all people, my Li family can stand out among the Eighteenth Road against the king, and be able to stand out in all directions. Changing the color of the country, overthrowing the country, and the former Sui Dynasty, Yin Jian is in sight, shouldn't we take it as a warning?"

Li Yuan trembled with anger, pointed his halberd at Li Shimin, and roared, "Shut up!"

Li Yuan gasped and said, "I don't need you to teach me a lesson! Put away your hypocrisy and hypocrisy. Don't forget, I am your father, and I have raised you for more than thirty years. What are you? Things, the world returns, is there anyone who knows better than me? You'd better use your words to deceive others, don't show off in front of your old father!"

Li Shimin smiled and said: "My son doesn't agree with my father's words. It is true that my son's body, hair and skin are all from his parents. When I was a child, my father spent a lot of effort in raising and training my sons and officials. But , since the second year of Wude, my father has been the king of the ninth level. He never leaves the palace and sees him all day long. He is nothing more than palace servants, ministers, and civil and military officials. Not to mention his son, he knows the world well. how much?"

Li Yuan said: "Stop talking about such useless nonsense! I will be strong all my life, and I will not let the son I raised by myself to teach me a lesson! You simply killed your old father with a sword , right here in the Ganlu Hall, ascend the throne and sit in the Dragon Court, and let the whole world see how filial you, the new emperor, are!"

Li Shimin pointed at himself and said with a bitter smile: "Father, you think so at this moment, but how do you know that for many days, my son has always thought this way.

Li Shimin raised his saber, stared firmly at Li Yuan and said, "My son has ruled the world for more than ten years and has always regarded himself as a hero. Now, he is trapped in Chang'an and is cornered by his own brother. He is a hero. He would not choose such a cowardly way of death, death is left and right, my son would rather die vigorously on the battlefield, and would rather be turned into flesh between knives, spears and blades, than sit and wait to be killed by the thieves laugh."

Li Yuan snorted coldly.

Li Shimin said: "Father, don't worry too much. No matter how you say it, you are still the father of your son and the emperor of the Tang Dynasty. No matter how unfilial your son is, he will not take you seriously. Today we are a military remonstrance, not a conspiracy. The world is still the world of the Tang Dynasty, and the emperor is still a member of our Li family. Today's words are just private words between the son and the father. In front of outsiders, the son will not say a word. The face of the father is the face of the emperor. Tang's face, a country, a court, some things, after all, we still have to be scruples..."

At this moment, there was a loud bang, and Li Shimin's face changed drastically.

Li Yuan laughed crazily and said, "God can't even see it!"

Li Yuan looked at Li Shimin with contempt and said, "Even if you are really enthroned, you are also a king of subjugation. The foundation of my Tang Dynasty is about to be ruined by you, a rebellious son!"

Immediately, Li Shimin brandished his saber with his eyes wide open, and roared at Li Yuan, "You're talking nonsense!"

Li Yuan took a few steps back in fright.

Li Shimin closed his eyes, opened them again after a while, and said with a long breath: "I didn't want to say some things at first, but since my father forced my son to say them, then don't blame my son for saying them so badly."

Li Yuan twisted his mouth and stared at Li Shimin fiercely.

Li Shimin stared at Li Yuan without flinching and said: "The gains and losses of the government are based on the employment, the gains and losses of the employment, and the rewards and punishments. Since the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, so many heroes and generals are no more than dukes and less than three ranks; and As for my Li family, up and down, big and small, they are all crowned kings, even at this moment, the babies who are still in their infancy are crowned kings. ?”

Li Yuan turned his head coldly, completely ignoring Li Shimin.

Li Shimin said unyieldingly: "Those who are the masters of others should use people only on their talents, not only on the party. Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui are all talents of prime ministers. My ministers also recommended them to daddy. What happened? Fang Xuanling has lived in the title of Tiance for several years, but has not been moved. Du Ruhui is the dignified Tiance Sima, just because he quarreled with a bitch's father next to his father, and he was cut off with a finger, and was also punished. Dad cut off his title, employing people like this, managing affairs like this, wouldn't it make the subjects of the world feel cold?"

Li Shimin gritted his teeth and let out a low growl, which startled Li Yuan.

Li Shimin said: "Is this what Dad was like back then? Was Dad like this when he was in Taiyuan? If at that time, Dad treated the world's heroes like this, can our Li family still enter Chang'an? Since entering Chang'an , You hang around among women in the deep palace all day long, you don’t want to ask about the sufferings of the people, you don’t want to listen to them, and good ministers advise you; The crisis is at stake, and my father regards my son and minister as the king of subjugation, but I don't know that the current Tang Dynasty is already showing signs of subjugation!"

Li Yuan was dizzy, and staggered and fell to the ground.

Li Shimin rushed forward to support Li Yuan, staring at the void in front of him with cold eyes.

Li Shimin rushed to the eldest grandson Wuji beside him and said, "Please go to Linhu Hall, our war has just begun!"

PS: Let’s start with Chapter Four Thousand Eight, there will be more later, but let’s rest first!

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Li Xiuning sat and walked slowly towards the Taiji Palace, while Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji dressed up as soldiers, standing on the left and right sides of Li Xiuning.

Li Xiuning frowned slightly and said, "Why don't you see Wei Xuancheng at such a critical moment?"

Hearing this, Li Jiancheng's face changed greatly: "It's broken!"

Li Xiuning asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?"

"Three days ago, Ling Jing claimed that he always used the secret method to pickle a jar of vinegared celery and invited Wei Zheng to taste it!" Li Jiancheng said with a gloomy face: "Since then, Wei Zheng has not been heard from, so Ling Jing, Betrayed the palace!"

Li Yuanji curled his lips and said: "Ling Jing is Dou Jiande's confidant, if the second child puts Dou Jiande's death on your head, it will be no wonder Ling Jing doesn't betray him!"

Li Jiancheng smiled bitterly and said: "How could Dou Jiande's death be related to me? I have repeatedly pleaded with His Majesty on his behalf, but His Majesty will not allow it!"

Li Yuanji said: "Second brother has no other skills, but his ability to turn black and white is not small. Ling Jing must have betrayed you!"

Li Xiuning gave Li Yuanji a hard look.

Li Yuanji shrank his head and stopped talking.

Li Jiancheng said worriedly: "Although Wang Jun said that he is quite similar to Bengong, but Chang He and Bengong are old acquaintances, how can they escape his eyes?"

Li Xiuning shook her head and said: "Da Lang, you have to have confidence in Yue'er's disguise technique. Back then, when she made up Bengong into a sickly face, did you and Dad ever find out?"

Li Jian was speechless at the beginning. At the beginning, he really didn't notice Li Xiuning's abnormality, and he really thought that Li Xiuning's time was approaching.

Li Yuanji said with a smile: "I'm not worried. Cen Wenwen's elder brother, Uncle Cen Wen, is very similar to me. With a little makeup, Concubine Yang may not be able to tell the truth from the fake. Castrated!"

Li Jiancheng looked at Li Yuanji in surprise, really wondering what was going on in his head.

Seeing Li Jiancheng looking at himself, Li Yuanji hurriedly explained: "Brother, you don't know, this Uncle Cen Wen looks too much like me. If Concubine Yang recognizes the wrong person, wouldn't it damage my blood? No, absolutely. Castrate him!"

Li Xiuning couldn't help but sighed and said, "I don't know what happened to Father!"

……

In front of the Xuanwu Gate, Wang Yan and Cen Wenyue dressed up as Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji respectively, and walked slowly towards the Xuanwu Gate with their personal guards.

Wang Yan was nervous for a while, but Uncle Cen Wen dressed as Li Yuanji was more natural.

The Xuanwu Gate slowly opened from the inside.

Chang He walked out of the door with a large group of Imperial Guard soldiers.

Uncle Cen Wen reined in his horse's head, frowned and said, "Today the guard of the Xuanwu Gate should be Jing Junhong. Why can't he be seen? What's the matter with Chang He here? It's the emperor's order to change the rotation." ?”

Chang He felt guilty and dared not look "Li Jiancheng" in the eyes, bowed his head and clasped his fists in salute: "The last general is wearing armor, so he can't give the full salute to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!

Wang Yan heaved a sigh of relief, and said with a smile on his face, "It's okay. Isn't General Jun Hong on duty for the forbidden army today? Why are you standing here?"

Chang He said nervously: "Reporting to Your Highness, Lao Jing is on duty at the north gate today. He stayed here last night as a guard, and now he is withdrawing from the team. He has gone to lecture and eat, and he will be back in a while. The last general is on duty today. Therefore, Here! Your Highness and King Qi please show your badges.

Wang Yan nodded, took out a gold-inlaid bronze medal from his pocket, and asked again: "Does Your Majesty have morning classes?"

Chang He's tone was a bit distorted, and he said tremblingly: "Your Majesty doesn't seem to have a morning class today, and he was promoted to the Liangyi Hall half an hour ago. The ministers came earlier than the two Highnesses, and should have already entered by now." |

Uncle Cen Wen can confirm that, as expected, the palace has already been troubled.

The two looked at each other in the air.

Wang Yan asked, "Which courtiers have already entered?"
