There were only a few of them in the house. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

The eldest grandson Wuji and Chu Suiliang persuaded again and again, but Li Shimin sighed lightly and said: "Two Aiqing, it's not that I want people to be martyred, but I have to do it as a last resort." ”

The situation in the palace, the two of them have heard about it, they have heard about the prince Li Zhi and Wu Meiniang, but Li Shimin did this in order to kill Wu Meiniang, is it too much?

However, although they heard about it, they didn't dare to face Li Shimin, they just kept silent, they knew that Li Shimin would continue to explain.

Sure enough, after Li Shimin finished saying that, he said: "The two Aiqing still remember the previous rumors, Emperor Chuan III, Li Xing of the Wu Dynasty, and the heroine Chang, although Li Junxian, who was called the fifth lady, is dead, but I can't take it lightly, this Wu Meiniang also has a martial character, and she is a veritable heroine, if you don't get rid of him, how can I be safe?" ”

The main reason for killing Wu Meiniang was that she had something like that with the crown prince Li Zhi, but Li Shimin couldn't say it, so he could only use such an excuse to persuade Changsun Wuji and Chu Suiliang.

"For the sake of my Datang future, even if my reputation is ruined, as long as it is possible to subvert my Da Song Dynasty, I will not spare it."

Li Shimin said resolutely, the eldest grandson Wuji didn't take this seriously, in his opinion, Wu Meiniang is just a woman, what kind of storm can a woman set off in Datang?

Even if she wants to make waves, how can ministers like them in the court tolerate her misdeeds?

Therefore, for Li Shimin's worry, they felt that it was completely unnecessary, if they killed all the concubines in the harem just because of a Wu Meiniang, it would be too cruel.

Although the emperor's family is cruel, if they are not persuaded as courtiers, they are bound to leave an infamy in the history books.

But just when the two of them were about to say something more, Li Shimin suddenly took out another edict to show them, and the two took it and looked at it, and their expressions suddenly moved.

After Li Shimin's death, he appointed the eldest grandson Wuji and Chu Suiliang as ministers of care, responsible for assisting the crown prince Li Zhi and jointly governing the Tang Dynasty.

The current status and status of the two are not low, if they have the identity of the minister of care, it will be even higher, which is equivalent to saying that many things of Li Zhi, they can participate, because they are ordered by Li Shimin to assist Li Zhi.

After seeing this edict, the two were shocked, and hurriedly knelt down for Li Shimin, although they were very excited after seeing this, but they didn't dare to show it at all, for fear that Li Shimin would think that they had the heart to fight for power.

"Holy Lord, this must not be, the minister is humble, how dare he serve as the minister of Gu Ming to assist the prince......"

Li Shimin waved his hand and said: "The two Aiqing don't have to be too humble, I know the talents of the two of you best, don't talk about the auxiliary machine, I followed me to lay down the Tang Dynasty together, and later assisted me in building the Tang Dynasty, with you, I can leave with peace of mind, as for Chu Aiqing, he is also a rare loyal and martyr's minister, I will hand over the prince to you, and I will be able to stabilize the Tang Dynasty." ”

Li Shimin's words were sincere, and the eldest grandson Wuji and Chu Suiliang also had a heart for this, and after such a false shirk, they also responded to the situation.

However, after coming down to this, they will not be able to object to the burial of talented concubines like Wu Meiniang.

In the final analysis, Li Shimin couldn't know more about these two people, he knew very well what these two people wanted most in their hearts, so he exchanged the power they wanted in exchange for their approval of the condition that he wanted to be buried alive.

Although Li Shimin is old and sick, his brain is not confused, and he has a way to subdue these two people.

And this is indeed the case, after the edict was shown to the eldest grandson Wuji and Chu Suiliang, Li Shimin recruited others in, and then mentioned the use of living people to accompany the funeral, this time Li Shimin spoke, the eldest grandson Wuji and Chu Suiliang were much more well-behaved, although they did not express 100% approval, but they also agreed with Li Shimin's decision.

Li Shimin and the two ministers of the court agreed, and there were fewer opposing voices among the others?

In fact, what they value is Li Shimin's reputation, and they don't care about the lives of those talented concubines in the harem at all, and now even Li Shimin and Eldest Sun Wuji feel that they don't care about reputation, so what do they care about?

Accompany the funeral, just accompany the funeral.

In exchange, Li Shimin gave the eldest grandson Wuji the power they wanted, and Li Shimin also got what he wanted, and the courtiers supported the burial by train.

-------------------------------

Cuiwei Palace is not far from the capital Chang'an, so the news of Cuiwei Palace quickly spread to the capital.

When he arrived in the capital, Li Zhi was still busy, and he seemed to be busy all the time recently, as if he was not busy for a moment except for sleeping and eating.

But when he heard Li Shimin's newly promulgated edict, he immediately sat down in his chair.

He didn't expect his father to be buried with a living person, he has always been the kind father, how could he bear to be buried with a living person?

When a group of criminals were in prison, he still gave these people a chance to go home, and he was even more important to human life, whether a person could be killed, he had to retry it several times, but at the last moment, he actually wanted to use a living person to bury?

In an instant, the crown prince Li Zhi didn't think of Wu Meiniang, he only thought of those concubines in the harem, they are also human beings, are they going to be martyred because they didn't give birth to heirs?

This is really too cruel, and it is easy to cause instability in the harem, Li Zhi is benevolent, hates killing people for no reason, and martyrdom is not good, this is the most barbaric method, how can they use it?

After he thought about it a lot, he suddenly thought of Wu Meiniang, she was also a talented person of her father, and she had no heirs, so would she also be martyred?

The crown prince Li Zhi really wanted to go to Cuiwei Palace, and he wanted to ask his father why he did this.

However, just as he was about to go, he was stopped by Su Wuwei.

"Holy Lord, at this last moment, you must not leave Chang'an City casually, otherwise if you are targeted by people with bad intentions, you will be in trouble."

Although the crown prince Li Zhi is about to ascend the throne, there are many people who want to seize the throne of the Tang Dynasty, if Li Zhi leaves Chang'an City like this, I am afraid that those people will make some crazy moves, right?

Moreover, everyone knows that when he is about to ascend the throne, leaving the palace and leaving the capital is the least wise thing to do.

The crown prince Li Zhi glanced at Su Wuwei and said, "Sir, but my father wants to ruin his own reputation and use those living people to accompany the burial, how can this work, I will never allow my father to do such a thing?" ”

Su Wuwei saw that the crown prince Li Zhi was like this, and said very calmly: "Your Royal Highness the prince, the saint has died, you are the emperor, although it is a testament, it is not irrevocable, so it is better for you to sit in the capital at this time." ”
