[Wu Zetian] Queen's Road

Chapter v is not easy to modify, so I will put some popular science information here~

Some of the author's understanding on the matter of seizing the throne:

1. Prince Chengqian was born at an untimely time.

In the author's opinion, in any case, several of Taizong's sons are very capable people, among which Chengqian is the most.

Chengqian is Taizong's eldest son, and his "elder" is actually quite mysterious, because Taizong's second son Li Kuan and third son Li Ke were born in the same year as Chengqian, so Chengqian's biggest advantage is this "distress". 'Character.

Empress Changsun is undoubtedly one of the prince's most respected and beloved women, but she has too little maternal love for Chengqian.

Chengqian's childhood was relatively dark, his father was often thrown out by his grandfather to beg for help, and his mother went to the palace every day to fulfill his filial piety to gain a sense of existence for his father.

A small child like Chengqian is often left alone, it's true that his father doesn't care about his mother.

Later, his father finally succeeded in seizing the heir, and the family reunited in the East Palace for a few years. Parents, brothers and sisters all moved into the Taiji Palace, leaving Chengqian, who was only eight years old, in the East Palace.

The shadows in childhood will inevitably affect the character in adulthood.

Chengqian is an insecure child.

And then those pedantic old officials who were thrown into the East Palace made Chengqian feel more uneasy, always being reprimanded by others, and often blamed, who can bear it!

Then this baby went to extremes...

What a pity!

I don’t remember which online article mentioned that Chengqian is actually the son who most resembles Li Erfeng. Let’s just talk about what Chengqian said to his father after the failure of the rebellion. What he said to his father Li Yuan was very similar.

"I will call Chengqian to punish Le, and Chengqian said: "The minister is the prince, what more do you want? But it is for Tai's plan, and the courtiers are seeking peace. People who have no shape, then teach the ministers to be misbehaving. If Tai is the prince , so that it can be counted. The emperor said: "Yes, it is like Li Tai, and the vice-lord can get it by swindling. If Tai is also established, he will inherit Qian and rule and both will die; if rule is also established, Tai and Cheng Qian will be able to obtain it." Without it.’ That is, General Youtai will serve as a prisoner, and he will release Yongzhou Mu, Xiangzhou Governor, Zuowuhou General, and Wang Donglai.”

If I lose, I will lose, but I will never spare the enemy, I will bite the last bite...

It's a very similar situation:

"The emperor gave it to the people of the world. So the people of the world secretly played the harem of Jianjian and Yuanji, and said: 'I have no responsibility for my brothers. Now I want to kill my ministers. It seems to be revenge for Shichong and Jiande. My death is in vain. Forever disobeying the king and relatives, the soul returns to the ground, and I am really ashamed to see the thieves!' I was stunned, and reported: 'I will ask you tomorrow, and you should participate early.'

Clever, eloquent, lust for power, decision-making ability, playful and mischievous, emotionally dependent, willful and extreme, ambitious, never letting others die...

We have to say that we can find correspondences in Li Chengqian's personality in his father Li Erfeng, which is enough to prove that Chengqian is the son who most resembles him...

But his father, His Majesty Li Er, is a lucky man. He has been loved by his parents since he was a child, and his wife and eldest grandson are super smart and virtuous. It's all in order.As for Chengqian, his parents had too many things to attend to, and his wife didn't even leave a scratch in the history books. It can be seen from mediocrity that he actually seized his opportunity hard. When he served his grandfather, he won Li Yuan's favorite, he also won unanimous praise when he supervised the country...

As for the "Yinguo like me" Saburo Li Ke, I really don't see how much his temperament is like Li Erfeng. In terms of scheming, I guess even Li Xiaojiu can kill him!

Therefore, the conclusion is that Chengqian is a tragedy that was born at an untimely time.
