Great Tang Southern Emperor

Why can he recruit people as he wants, but if I want to make friends with an official, people are afraid to avoid me?

Why is everyone looking up to him?But I can only be a foil?

Why?In this case, the position of crown prince should be given to him directly, why should it be added to me?Why is his..."

Losing the position of crown prince, and having to confine himself to confinement, Li Chengqian has nothing. This time, he really went crazy. He vented all the grievances he had suffered in these years in front of everyone, so that he was incoherent. , roaring and crying at the same time, it can be seen that his heart is really depressed.

"" The entire Daxing Hall was silent, only Li Chengqian's venting cries remained.

After a long time, someone finally spoke, but surprisingly, it was Li Ke who spoke: "Brother, I think you misunderstood. We never meant to target you from the beginning to the end.

The eighth brother's talent is indeed unparalleled, and we all admire it very much.But we didn't ignore your existence because we valued him, all this is just your illusion.

The reason why your father and all the adults in the court are more strict with you is because you are the crown prince. They really raised you as an emperor, and your words and deeds must be strictly regulated from the beginning.

As for the eighth younger brother being against you, this is even more fictional. In fact, the eighth younger brother has always respected you.It's because you think too much about yourself, and you are too jealous of the eighth brother, to the point where you won't go to the banquet as long as the eighth brother is there.

After the eighth brother discovered this pattern, in order to take care of your face, he rarely participated in the banquets organized by us, and the fourth brother can also testify to this point. "

Li Tai immediately said: "That's right, big brother, you were the one who targeted the Eighth Brother from the beginning to the end, at least I don't remember when the Eighth Brother targeted you—except for the time when Chang Sun Chong forcibly occupied his natural residence restaurant, but That was also aimed at Changsun Chong. And that time, you were still the one who provoked it on your own initiative."

Chapter 333 The Li Chengqian Who Killed (3)

Chapter 1: Li Chengqian Who Killed (3)

Li Ke and Li Tai have said so much, but it's a pity that Li Chengqian didn't believe it at all: "Liar, I don't believe a word of your words. Since you didn't favor him, why can he have so much power? He is just a prince. In terms of power now He is almost an emperor, how do you explain this?"

"Don't be presumptuous, it's well-documented that Zhen'er can get all of this." It was Li Shimin who took the conversation, and he walked down from the dragon chair, and said slowly and loudly: "Since you asked Okay, then I will explain it to you, and all the lovers are listening, and I also helped you understand the doubts in your heart. I have been saying that it is not fair. Zhener got everything, but you have nothing. But you only saw What did he get, but he didn't see how much he gave. Everything Zhen'er got, he got credit for. Now I will tell you one by one, and I will let all the Qing family help to judge, Is Zhen'er qualified to win our trust?

Let's start from the very beginning. In the second year of Zhenguan, Zhen'er had just received the inheritance of the gods, so he offered the ice-making technique to me. Since then, my Tang Dynasty has never suffered from heat transfer, and what he got is only more than other brothers. What is the fiefdom of two hundred households compared to ice making?

Later, I presented the horseshoe technology, which increased the combat power of my Tang cavalry by [-]% out of thin air, but the loss of horses was reduced by half.With this credit alone, it is enough to be a founding county uncle, but Zhener still has nothing (Li Jing, Cheng Yaojin, Yu Chigong and others pouted: Don’t think I don’t know, the king of Yue exchanged a tax-free privilege for you , you just have no face to say it).

In the second year of Zhenguan, Zhen'er presented cement formula and grenades, both of which are important weapons in the country, and each of them is enough to be named a marquis.But what did Zhener get?All he wanted was the privilege of independent steel smelting and development.

In November of the second year of Zhenguan, after several months of painstaking development, Zhener finally developed the blast furnace steelmaking technique, and dedicated the formula to the imperial court. It's just a little money.

On the New Year's Eve of the second year of Zhenguan, Zhen'er presented a four-wheeled carriage, which doubled the carrying capacity of Datang. Zhupei, that's what he got in exchange for answering questions.

On the 28th day of the first lunar month of the third year of Zhenguan, Zhen'er presented the "Jingnong Juan" on my birthday, which greatly increased the grain output of the Tang Dynasty. This is a birthday gift, and I still haven't rewarded him.

At the beginning of February of the third year of Zhenguan, Zhener went to the Turks. Before he left, he contributed the "Five Strategies for Dingjiang" and wool textile technology before leaving. Everyone has seen the effect. Now the entire Turks have been completely subordinated. The worry of alien invasion has solved the biggest threat that China has faced since the Xia and Shang Dynasties.It even used food to control Tubo, laying a solid foundation for Datang to conquer Tubo.Wool weaving even controlled the lifeline of the grassland people, making them afraid to rebel even if they wanted to.

However, after presenting such a wonderful strategy, what Zhen'er got was only a small island exploration right.

In April of the third year of Zhenguan, Zhen'er wrote "Struggling for the Front and Killing Technique" in the army. Now this killing technique has spread to the whole army, and it has become a martial art that all soldiers of the Tang Dynasty must learn.What Zhen'er got was still just some treasures and rewards.

In the third year of Zhenguan, Datang completely defeated the Turks. Zhener's guards captured Jieli alive and conquered Qibi Heli.

During the same period, the cannon was successfully developed, which added another national artifact to the Tang Dynasty. Since then, the cavalry has a new nemesis.This is also a credit that can be made a marquis, but Zhen'er still didn't ask for anything, just asked for the right to operate the artillery independently, but even if he cast it himself, wouldn't the cannon produced still equip our army?The price is not expensive, it's just a [-]% premium - how can such a small profit offset the credit for the invention of artillery?

Later, after the Turks were conquered, Zhen'er was ordered to serve as the guardian of the Turkic Metropolitan Protectorate in the face of danger, and established the Turkic Metropolitan Protectorate with nothing, and you have seen the result.In just a few months, he successfully used the wool trade to win the conviction of the Turkic people, and successfully eliminated the Turkic people's hatred of us because of the war.Later, relying on clever skills, taking advantage of the opportunity of the war between Huihe and Xue Yantuo, he pretended to attack Guo, not only destroyed Huihe, but also annexed Xue Yantuo by the way. Since then, the northern grassland has been completely reduced to my country.

In the next few months, more than a dozen cities were built on the grassland, troops were stationed in the grassland, and the grassland was stabilized, making the north completely stable. There has not even been a large-scale rebellion in more than ten years.It has also enhanced the integration of Xintu and Datang. Now ten years have passed, and everyone in the north regards themselves as the Tang Dynasty. Does anyone mention the word Turkic again?

Opening up the frontier and expanding the land for thousands of miles, stabilizing the new land, promoting the integration of the people, and the submission of foreign races. If such a great contribution is placed on others, even if I give him a prince, I think you will not say anything.But have you ever heard how much I have rewarded Zhen'er?No, still not, because Zhen'er is too sensible, because he knows that he is already a prince, at the peak of the princes, and can't be sealed. In order to make my father, the emperor, no longer embarrassed, he asked for a Lingnan pacifier position.

What's even more commendable is that, after all these things were completed, Zhen'er took the initiative to retire, without the slightest hint of lingering... May I ask you gentlemen, if it were you, would you be like this?Qingque, will you?Or Keer, would you? "

"This" was asked by name, and Li Ke and Li Tai were speechless. Lying in the court is definitely not acceptable, but if they want to tell the truth, they really don't want to give up easily-that's The Turkic Metropolitan Protectorate, in terms of area, is half the size of the Tang Dynasty, and as the Metropolitan Protector, in charge of all the military and political powers of the Metropolitan Protectorate, it is no different from the emperor. How can ordinary people give up easily?But how easy is it to say this?Can only keep silent.

"Look, look, this is the difference between you and your eighth brother. The authority that you regard as a treasure is like dung in the eyes of Zhen'er. You have turned to the outside... After all, your structure is too far apart." Li Shimin glanced at Li Ke and Li Tai disappointedly, and continued to say to the officials: "Make great achievements but not greedy for them, and control the power but not be greedy for them." Not in love with power, all dear ministers, if you have a son, why can't I trust him? Why can't I trust him?"

Chapter 334

Chapter 1

"Wow~" All the officials were in an uproar. They didn't think it was anything before, but now after Li Shimin's statistics, they discovered that Li Zhen had made so many contributions without knowing it. changed because of him.Immediately, all the dissatisfaction or worries in my heart dissipated—as Li Shimin said, for making such great contributions to the country, it would not be an exaggeration to directly crown the king. Put it on Li Zhen and allow him to be a prince The position is not too much, but Li Zhen doesn't ask for any reward, how selfless is this?What's the point of giving him the posts of Lingnan Route Envoy and Lingnan Appeasement Envoy now?

Summing up Li Zhen's contribution, Li Shimin came to Li Chengqian's side again: "Having said so much, Chengqian, tell me yourself, with Zhen'er's contributions, what he wants I won't give him?

Even the Boys' Army and Wentian Shuyuan were established by Zhen'er under Zhen'er's order, and they were not formed privately as you said.

What's more, if you really want to talk about rebellion, with the fighting power of the youth army, if he wants to rebel, he can just do it in Chang'an?Looking at the whole world, which army dares to say that it can compete with the Boys' Army?Why did he have to go to Lingnan and fight all the way back?Wouldn't it be superfluous? "

It's a pity that Li Chengqian, who has lost his mind, can listen to a word?Wen Yan just yelled: "Lies, everything is a lie, everything is an excuse, it is an excuse for you to replace me. You think I don't know, you have always been dissatisfied with me, and the prince you want to establish has always been It's all Li Zhen, I'm just a transitional product, now you don't need me anymore"

"You are really hopeless." Li Shimin was so angry that he kicked Li Chengqian to the ground: "Come here, the crown prince has no virtue, abolish his position as crown prince, and shut him up in Ye Ting Palace to think about his mistakes. Order not to come out."

"Yes." The guards rushed in like wolves, and carried Li Chengqian out. Until he left Daxing Hall, Li Chengqian kept shouting 'excuse', 'lie' and so on.

"I'm so pissed off." Li Shimin was still angry and yelled in the hall regardless of his image.

Du Ruhui stood up and persuaded: "The emperor calm down, the prince was just confused for a while, I believe that after he calms down, he should realize his mistake, and he will naturally admit his mistake to the emperor."

"I" Li Shimin was about to say something when suddenly Wang Tingchu came over with a stack of memorials: "Your Majesty, Lingnan Memorial."

"Take a look." Li Shimin took the memorial and looked at it. The first few were memorials from Li Zhen and Cen Wenwen. They were all about what happened in Lingnan during this period. There were government affairs reports and Li Zhen's letter. Please forgive me, after reading it, Li Shimin seemed very relieved, and handed the book to Du Ruhui and others: "Everyone, please read it, Zhen'er has just arrived in Lingnan, and she has made such achievements, compared with Zhen'er, Cheng Qian is really... mad at me."

Thinking of Li Zhen, Li Chengqian, and comparing the gap between the two sons, Li Shimin's liver hurts with anger.

"This..." Du Ruhui quickly opened the memorial, browsed through it quickly, and immediately congratulated the emperor: "Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the emperor, His Royal Highness the king of Yue came to Lingnan when he first arrived in Lingnan, he calmed down the chaos in Lingnan, and cleaned the officialdom of Yuezhou with a thunderbolt. It is truly unparalleled through the ages, I congratulate His Majesty and the Great Tang."

Fang Xuanling also hurriedly said: "I congratulate Your Majesty and the Great Tang."

Of course, Du Ruhui had reason to be happy, because Du He was also mentioned in the memorial, knowing that his son had made a lot of contributions in this change of officialdom, he was naturally relieved for his son.

Fang Xuanling also had the same reason.

"Congratulations to His Majesty, and congratulations to the Great Tang." The courtier hurriedly followed suit.

Li Shimin was also very proud: "Hahaha"

Wang Ting next to him saw that Li Shimin was getting carried away at first, and immediately became anxious, and hurriedly reminded in a low voice: "Your Majesty, there is still a memorial below, hurry up."

"Huh?" Li Shimin was stunned, and suddenly remembered that he had only read the first few pages, and hadn't read the bottom one, so he quickly picked it up, and saw that the cover was actually red, and his heart skipped a beat.The memorials of the Tang Dynasty have different specifications according to different functions. The red color represents the urgency, and the contents reported on it are either border wars or emergency information.

He quickly opened the first envelope, and upon seeing it, he immediately became furious.

"Bastard." Throwing the booklet on the ground, Li Shimin was really furious this time: "A mere Linyi, a small country of Cuoer, dares to violate our frontiers and slaughter my people. He deserves death and has nothing to do with it!" Forgiveness. What exactly is Li Zhen doing? Doesn’t he, the Lingnan pacifier, do anything? And the Jiaozhou Governor’s Mansion, are they all blind? Didn’t even notice the slightest difference in the transfer of the [-] troops? Qiu He (Jiaozhou Governor, the old man in history Come on, it's already hung up at this time, Ben San revived him) really confused, what the hell is he doing?"

Du Ruhui quickly picked it up, and after reading the memorial, he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, calm down, the memorial said that the governor Qiu was poisoned, and the entire Annan area has become a mess. However, His Royal Highness has already led [-] youth troops to the expedition. Liu Hongji also led the [-] troops of the Lingnan Xingjun Dao and followed closely behind, with them, the mere [-] allied troops in Linyi, Baitou, can only be a joke."

"" Keming, you are purely against me today, right?

"That doesn't work, what did you do earlier? Why do we always wait until after the incident to find out? Why didn't we attack earlier?" Li Shimin didn't care about these things: "The governor of Huanzhou is also damned, why didn't he find out about the Linyi people in advance? Conspiracy? Are they all blind and deaf?"

At this time, almost everyone knew the content of the memorial, and immediately there were discussions everywhere, accusing Lin Yi of being cruel, even massacring the people of Datang City.
