In Huaiyin, two ox carts were surrounded by many armed guards and advanced towards the palace. Li Li sat in one of the ox carts, thinking about things.

The kings who raised their troops, were defeated and captured, were taken to Huaiyin one after another. Whether these people were alive or dead was all in his thoughts.

Not only that, the royal family royal family members who had been in Huaiyin before, including Jiangxia King Xiao, who was recording the affairs of Shangshu, have become turtles in the jar, and there will no longer be any powerful faction that explicitly supports these people.

Therefore, the power of the royal family has been in a slump, and next, Li Li can actually go through the program.

What procedure should I go through?

Referring to the story of Qi and Liang, Empress Dowager Xie (because the new king has not been decided) was appointed as the throne, and then he was appointed as a Duke of a certain country. The Duke had more than ten counties, and the country elected important positions were all subject to the system of the Celestial Empire.

After a while, he was granted several counties and promoted the title of king.

The royal family and princes intend to rebel, and all the evidences are complete, and they are killed.

After a while, the queen and Concubine Zhang were about to give birth. If they gave birth to a boy, some ministers would persuade them to advance. Empress Dowager Xie, who became the empress dowager, put the world first and took the initiative to make the grandson's decision, and abdicated the throne.

So the dynasty changed.

If the empress and nobleman Zhang failed to give birth to a boy, Empress Dowager Xie established another royal family as the emperor. After the new king ascended the throne, he claimed that he lacked virtue and abdicated the throne.

After the abdication, Emperor Xun was appointed as King of Liang, and Liang Zuo continued.

A few years later, King Liang died of illness and the Kingdom of Liang was exterminated.

When Li Li thought of this, his eyes were frozen.

As a minister who was deeply favored by the late emperor (Xiao Gang), he morally owed the late emperor's kindness that he would never repay. If he killed the descendants of the late emperor, he would never be able to wash away morally.

It is not an exaggeration to say that he is ungrateful. Even if he really proclaims himself emperor and unifies the world, he works diligently during his reign and governs the country in an orderly manner, this moral stain will still become his label.

ungrateful.

If the kings and marquis are not killed, it will become a huge hidden danger, because the descendants of the late emperor have certain political appeal.

Once the current situation suddenly changes, there may be a powerful faction, a prince and grandson of the late emperor (Xiao Gang), who will make a shocking reversal.

This is not impossible. Political struggle is so cruel and dark. If you don’t eradicate the roots, the other party may rekindle and eradicate you.

As for moral stains, who cares?

Emperor Taizong of Tang Dynasty Li Shimin launched the Xuanwu Gate Incident, killing brothers, nephews, house arrest, and forcibly occupying his sister-in-law. Is there any moral stain?

When the Turks attacked, the troops arrived in Chang'an. Li Shimin and the Turkic Khan formed a alliance with the Wei River, spent a lot of money and money to pay protection fees in exchange for the Turkic withdrawal. Is it shameful?

So what?

Li Shimin was still called a wise ruler by later generations because under his rule, the Zhenguan period was prosperous, and the people lived and worked in peace and prosperity, and the country was strong, so they came to worship from all directions.

Although the Weishui Alliance was a bit humiliating, within a few years, the Tang army defeated the Turks and captured the Turkic Khan to Chang'an, and performed singing and dancing to the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty and the Emperor of the Supreme Emperor.

Li Shimin was called "Tian Khan". At this time, the humiliating Weishui Alliance became a starting point for Li Shimin to slept on firewood and taste gall, rather than a starting point for losing power and humiliating the country.

Li Li thought for a few days and realized that the emperor's personal moral stain is nothing. Only what he did at the state level as an emperor can determine his reputation.

The Sima family usurped the power of Cao Wei with despicable behavior and openly killed the emperor on the streets. Therefore, the Jin Dynasty had no face to emphasize "loyalty to the emperor" and only dared to say "govern the world with filial piety."

If the Sima family emperor worked hard to maintain peace in the world, there would be no rebellion of the Eight Kings, and no greater tragedy would happen...

In the "XX (year name) prosperous era", the Jin army swept across the barbarians, and the emperor was called "Tian Khan". So, who cares about the dirty things Sima Yi and his son did to seize power when they were Wei ministers?

The convoy arrived at the palace gate, Li Li got out of the car, walked through the palace gate, and walked inward.

Behind him, a few people also got off the ox cart and followed him forward.

Although the Empress Dowager (because the new king was not established, he was still the Empress Dowager) had a privilege of driving in the palace with a car, Li Li was very low-key and did not use this privilege.

It's not necessary, either.

It is too embarrassing to show off your power to the widows.

Not to mention among the widows, there is also his poor daughter.

Li Li entered the palace today and was a routine greeting to the empress dowager and doing some things. Then he visited his daughter by the way. He walked in the corridor and looked at the men and women with awe on both sides, with a lot of thoughts.

He still didn't want to kill people and wipe out the roots. He felt that changing to some form of house arrest might be possible under the premise of ensuring "safety".

Because the massacre of the royal family of the previous dynasty could not solve the fundamental problem.

Cao Wei treated the abdicated Emperor Liu Xie, but Cao Wei was not destroyed by the royal family of the previous dynasty.

Sima Jin did not kill all the royal families of Cao Wei. The Chenliu Kingdom, which was passed down from Emperor Xun, continued until the Southern Dynasty. Jin did not die in the royal families of the previous dynasty.

In the Jin and Song dynasties, Emperor Wu of Song Liu Yu killed Emperor Xun, and some royal families (not killed them), which made the bad start.

After Liu Yu's death, the regent minister had a conflict with the young emperor, so the emperor was abolished and a series of power struggles later. The internal strife of the Liu Song clan had nothing to do with the royal family of the previous dynasty.

In the Song Dynasty and Qi generation, Emperor Gao of Qi Xiao Daocheng killed all the members of the Liu Song Dynasty (but some people fled to the State of Wei), but later the slaughter of Emperor Gao and Emperor Wu was the Emperor Ming of Qi, Xiao Luan, whose uncle took the throne, and had nothing to do with the royal family of the previous dynasty.

Qi and Liang were replaced. Emperor Wu of Qi, Xiao Yan, killed the imperial family of the previous dynasty, and King Xiao Baoqi of Poyang fled to Wei. Although he repeatedly invaded the south, it was not Xiao Baoqi of the Liang Kingdom that ruined the fate of Liang Kingdom, but Hou Jing.

What's the problem?

Li Li believes that it was the emergence of the young emperors (excluding the Liang Kingdom) among the three emperors before the founding of the country, which led to the already unstable monarchy becoming weak, and something happened.

Liu Yu was fifty-seven years old when he was emperor and died two years later. The new king Liu Yifu was only sixteen years old and could not live in harmony with the ministers of the regent. He was eager to take charge of the rule and seize power, which intensified the conflict and was deposed and killed.

Emperor Gao of Qi, Xiao Daocheng, was fifty-two years old when he was emperor, and reigned for about three years. However, his crown prince Xiao Zhi was 42 years old at that time and was deeply involved in the establishment of Qi State.

Therefore, after Xiao Xie ascended the throne, the throne was very stable.

As a result, the Crown Prince Xiao Changmao died early, and Xiao Zi also died that year. The crown prince Xiao Zhaoye ascended the throne. At this time, Xiao Zhaoye was twenty years old.

Soon, Xiao Zhaoye was deposed by Xiao Luan, the emperor's uncle of the regent, and Xiao Luan later became the emperor himself.

Xiao Luan passed away, and the fifteen-year-old prince Xiao Baojuan ascended the throne. He did whatever he wanted as soon as he came up and quickly took off his body.

Therefore, the reason for the change of dynasties was that during the inheritance of the throne, the young emperor came to the dynasty, resulting in the weak power of the monarch, and the power was lost, and the country was finally usurped, which had nothing to do with the royal family of the previous dynasty.

Li Li felt that if Cao Pi could reign for twenty years instead of six years in Cao Wei, and Cao Rui who succeeded to the throne could reign for twenty years and pass the throne to become the crown prince, what else would Sima Yi and his son have to do?

As for the Liang Kingdom, the problem is the opposite: Emperor Wu of Liang lived too long.

Emperor Wu of Liang reigned for nearly 50 years. Although he stabilized the political situation, his mentality of papering, as well as his lenient family and noble families, led to the intensification of domestic conflicts and was eventually detonated by Hou Jing.

Emperor Wu of Liang was able to reunite the royal family, and learned from the lessons of the Song and Qi massacres of the royal family, which led to the change of ownership. After the death of Prince Zhaoming, Emperor Wu of Liang did not make the crown prince the crown prince, but also learned from the lessons of Emperor Wu of Qi.

However, Emperor Wu of Liang was overly corrected, and most of the royal families who came out were ungrateful, going from one extreme to another.

Emperor Wu of Liang avoided the pit that led to the demise of the previous dynasty, but himself fell into a bigger pit because he lived too long, which affected the normal renewal of the throne.

This led to the whole country being as twilight as the old emperor.

Therefore, Li Li felt that whether to kill the royal family of the previous dynasty was not the key. The key was how long he could live if he really changed his dynasty.

If the reign of the new dynasty was short, the country's destiny would be worrying. The so-called change of dynasties is just another cycle.

When Emperor Wu of Liang was founded, Xiao Yan was 38 years old. When he reached middle age, he was not as close to women and had a light diet, so he had a long life.

Li Li felt that Xiao Yan probably saw that the lifespan of the emperor was related to the lifespan of the dynasty, so he did this, instead of simply believing in Buddhism, so...

He is 36 years old now. If he wants to live for a long time, can he have to learn from Emperor Wu of Liang and not be close to women?

Anyway, my son already has a group of people, so it’s not impossible not to be close to women...

And beautiful wives and concubines will have a transformation process of "thirty years like a wolf, forty years like a tiger". If they don't "stop the cliff", they will probably be hollowed out.

Especially the powerful group of Xue sisters...

When Li Li thought of this, he felt it was difficult to accept: If this is the case, what is the meaning of life? I am a vulgar person!

At this moment, a figure and a beautiful voice appeared in his vision.

The bright and charming Princess Liyang, wearing plain white clothes, stood not far away in front of her, followed by several palace maids and eunuchs leading the way.

It seemed that he came out from the Empress Dowager and walked out, just in time to meet Li Li.

Li Li looked at the beautiful princess in front of him, and suddenly his eyelids twitched.

During this incident, the other party died of a good man and his son and became a widow, so they were covered in plain whiteness.

When Li Li learned about Princess Liyang, he only sighed that her beauty was not lucky.

However, although this person has not obviously applied makeup or dressed up, he is so glorious that he should not be a widow surrounded by grief and should show his state.

After a brief greeting, Xiao Miaoqing whispered: "Mr. Pengcheng, I have something to ask for."

Concubine is a commonly used self-proclaimer for women, not necessarily the self-proclaimer of wives and concubines to be good people. Li Li asked after hearing this: "What's wrong with the princess?"

Xiao Miaoqing replied: "Pengcheng Gong, let me speak with you."
