Chapter 205 Digging a pit and burying people
In Ganlu Hall, Li Shimin and several generals in the court are discussing military exercises.
Li Shimin held Zhu Sui's memorial and swayed gently, laughing and said, "I can't tolerate people...
Accurate!"
The following generals knew what Li Shimin said when they heard this. Some people thought that Li Shimin would be furious about it, but they didn't expect that Li Shimin would agree directly and seemed very happy.
Hou Junji stood up eagerly and said to Li Shimin: "Your Majesty's military power has always been crucial, and there is gunpowder in the East Palace today, so you must be careful..."
But before he finished speaking, he was scared back by Li Shimin's eyes. For a moment, the atmosphere in the hall became very solemn.
The generals present were also shocked. In order to show Li Chengqian the military's dissatisfaction with his changes in the marriage and the sudden proposal to perform a great martial arts, it was too much to exclude the Donggong Guards from the guards of the military, but since they received the support of Li Shimin, they were not afraid of anything.
However, if you jump out and oppose Li Chengqian and Li Shimin's army meeting together, the nature is different.
According to Zhu Suiliang's statement, Li Chengqian's participation in the reading army was the power of the lords, and it was related to the way of reading army for thousands of generations of the Tang Dynasty. So Li Shimin agreed happily, and you still jumped out to object. What do you want to object?
Before Yu Zhining's body was cold, you were about to repeat his mistakes?
Li Shimin looked at Hou Junji seriously for a while and said slowly: "Duke Chen is such a bad word. The prince follows me to read the army. How can he think more about him?"
Hou Junji was one of the nine people who followed Li Shimin to kill Li Jiancheng at Xuanwu Gate. Moreover, Li Shimin has always attached great importance to him, but Li Shimin usually called him the name, but today he changed his words because of a mistake in saying something...
Although Li Shiji sighed in his heart when he heard this, his Majesty must have replaced the prince with Hou Junji.
Hou Junji was stunned and bowed down and said, "It's my fault. Please punish him."
Li Shimin remained calm when he heard this, waved his hand and said, "Forget it!"
Seeing this, everyone knew that Li Shimin was in a bad mood at this time, so they stood up and bowed and said goodbye to leave.
Only Cheng Yaojin looked at Li Shimin with a embarrassed look on his face and did not leave. Li Shimin looked at Cheng Yaojin and snorted angryly and waved to him. Cheng Yaojin hurriedly walked to Li Shimin with a pleasing look on his face.
"Your Majesty, you see, I just returned to Chang'an..."
Li Shimin's beard was pale and Cheng Yaojin bent over and smiled. The anger in his heart subsided and said angrily: "You don't have to be afraid of anything!"
"Hey, hey, I'm not afraid of anything!"
Li Shimin sighed and pointed at Jindun in front of the bed and said, "Sit down, our monarch and ministers may not have spoken well for a long time, so let's talk well today." Li Shimin said with a slight loneliness in his eyes.
Cheng Yaojin hurriedly sat down on Jindun and said carelessly: "What Your Majesty said is that whenever I stayed with the generals this year, I always think of Your Majesty and want to talk to Your Majesty."
Li Shimin laughed and said, "You blame me for not serving you when I came back this time?"
Cheng Yaojin smiled bitterly and stretched out his hands and waved his hands repeatedly to show that he did not dare.
Li Shimin smiled when he saw this and said seriously: "Since Chengqian's leg and foot injury left behind a disability, many people have thoughts that they should not have. First, someone encouraged Qingque to rebel, and then someone wanted to use the Zhinu to deal with Chengqian. I have said many times that Chengqian is the chief rank, and I will never replace the clan with evil branches, but no one listened, so there were many disasters.
Fortunately, I am relieved to inherit Qianren and filial piety, and he has been quite successful recently. I will naturally indulge him a little. The generals of the Eastern Palace he promoted are indeed worthy..."
Although Cheng Yaojin smiled and nodded from time to time when he heard Li Shimin's speech, his heart was very cold. He heard that Li Shimin was quite guarding against Li Chengqian's Eastern Palace Guards, so he transferred him and Xue Wanche to Chang'an.
So when he came back, he began to suppress the Eastern Palace Guards and received support from the Chang'an generals. But now he heard Li Shimin's intention and was very satisfied with Li Chengqian.
Cheng Yaojin wants to curse...
Li Shimin didn't know what Cheng Yaojin was thinking, so he just continued to say to himself: "But these people can't be under my hands and just throw themselves into the ground! Otherwise, can Chengqian still use them at that time?"
"Your Majesty, your life is forever, why bother to think about these things?" Cheng Yaojin understood that what Li Shimin wanted to suppress was the generals of the Eastern Palace, so that they could only revolve around Li Chengqian. After Li Chengqian ascended the throne, these people had the opportunity to stand up and work hard to make contributions for Li Chengqian.
Cheng Yaojin understood these things and felt a secret complaint. Why did he encounter such a thing? Zhu Weisu of the East Palace now seemed to be Li Chengqian's confidant. Li Shimin didn't intend to touch them, but he opposed these people for a vision of Li Shimin.
Headache……
Li Shimin's order went down and the government and the people became quiet, and all officials were re-evaluating Li Chengqian's status.
The day before the martial arts performance, Li Shimin summoned Li Chengqian and his ministers to discuss the matter at Liangyi Hall.
Originally, this time I was mainly meeting Xue Yantuo's proposal in Chengtian Tower, but since Li Chengqian proposed to intimidate foreign barbarians in the military exercise that day, the focus of the court has changed, and everything has been centered on martial arts exercises.
...
...
Everything discussed before was pretty good, but when the guards ended, everyone could not find a suitable path.
Because in the past, when Li Shimin was scrutinizing the army, the soldiers were all arranged in the military formations, and he rode his horse and passed by the army. Then he left the field and the soldiers who arranged in the army would be able to end the scene.
However, after reading the troops this time, we would also announce the marriage between the Tang Dynasty and Xue Yantuo, and then there would be singing and dancing at Chengtian Gate, so that the guards would wait until they ended. It was obviously unreasonable.
As the Minister of War, Li Shiji's opinion was to let the soldiers line up and wait until the scene ended.
Li Shimin believed that the soldiers should be retreated first after he finished the proofreading, but civil officials such as Yang Shidao and Ma Zhou felt that retreating directly would lead to the power of the Tang army.
Since listening to Li Chengqian's words, the Tang Dynasty's literature was thinking about defeating the army without fighting, so they were even more concerned about martial arts. In just a few days, they made a clause including under what conditions to punish the Minister of War, etc., which made the generals very dissatisfied.
Just when there were many different opinions, Li Chengqian waved his hand to everyone, and when everyone looked at him, he slowly spoke: "If it were just the carriage of the father and the orphan king who walked around in front of each army, would it still be a martial arts?"
Everyone was stunned when they heard this, but they quickly realized that they had only designed a proofreading program without martial arts.
Li Chengqian continued to sigh lightly and rolled his eyes at the ministers, and then continued: "This is the first time I will not do other projects, but after the father and the orphan king were scribbling, the guards would line up in front of Chengtian Gate."
When all the generals heard this, they thought this was too young. Cheng Yaojin was the first to stand up and said, "Your Highness the Crown Prince will do as yourselves said. Go west to east through Chengtian Gate and all the way to Tonghua Gate in Chang'an City, and then walk along the city wall to Xuanwu in the north of the palace city."
Cheng Yaojin was indeed smart. He couldn't help but praise Li Chengqian as soon as he opened his mouth and even solved the problem of the ending.
Li Chengqian smiled faintly when he heard this, "It's easy, but these few steps will lead to the military power of the Tang Dynasty and the national power!"
"Of course!" Hou Junji stood up and said without any worries.
Li Chengqian smiled in his heart and said: Just wait and be embarrassed!
