Only two people in the world know the truth about the late emperor's apparition, one is Li Huguo and the other is his assistant Pei Yunhai.
One night three days later.
"Your Majesty, now that Daliao has re-established its national title, what are we going to do next?" In the bedroom, there was singing and dancing, and several beauties were dancing gracefully. Xue Qiao said as she picked up the wine glass.
Li Yuguo did not look at the beauty, but looked at the file in his hand. He said: "Originally, I was eating and drinking with Pei Yunhai, but today I have to start checking the memorial, because time is tight and cannot be delayed. How about... Eunuch Li, you take it with you Send this jug of wine to my brother Pei Yunhai and tell him that I will not come today."
Eunuch Li was holding a bottle of wine. His heart was shaken and he seemed to understand a lot of things.
Since ancient times, the art of emperors has been quite complicated and cruel. Eunuch Li took the pot of wine and sighed.
Pei Yunhai was given the status of a second-grade Pegasus General. That night, Pei Yunhai was preparing to rest in his bedroom. At this time, Li Yinglian walked in. Li Yinglian said with a loving smile: "General Pei."
"It turns out to be Eunuch Li." Pei Yunhai stood up. He now lives in the palace of King Pingxi. He looked at the pot of wine and frowned.
Eunuch Li said: "This pot of wine is given to you by your Majesty."
Although Pei Yunhai was a rough guy, he was also unambiguous at critical moments. He looked at the pot of wine and suddenly smiled miserably: "Really, it turns out I guessed it right."
Pei Yunhai has known the truth of "the rabbit is dead and the dog is cooked" very early, because he knows that this scene was designed by Li Huguo. This secret is not a shared secret. There are many secrets, and some secrets are meant to be shared with others, but Some are not.
As an emperor, Li Huguo obtained this position through such a strategy. Only Pei Yunhai knew the truth. Pei Yunhai looked at the glass of wine, put down the glass and said: "Father, thank your majesty for me. In addition... please tell your majesty, Yunhai thanks Your Majesty for your kindness."
"Well, go away, General Pei." Eunuch Li said.
Pei Yunhai looked at the bright moon outside the window and suddenly burst into laughter: "That's enough. Originally I was a mortal man in the prison, but you brought me out and did such a great thing, boss. I'm satisfied." ... I have lived my life in vain. I am able to leave my name in the founding of the Tang Dynasty. This is a lifelong blessing for me, Pei Yunhai! I understand this glass of wine, I understand!"
As he spoke, Pei Yunhai drank the drink in one gulp. He took out a piece of white silk and threw it towards the beam. He smiled and said: "Now, you are the only one who knows the truth. Everyone will think that Your Majesty, you are the chosen one, a hero sent by the late emperor to save people in trouble! I am satisfied to be your brother."
Pei Yunhai stood on the stool and kicked the stool away...
…
Early the next morning, Li Yuguo woke up slowly in Rouwen Township. Xue Qiao was still sweating in his arms, and his face still had traces of yesterday's car repairs. Li Yuguo got up on his own. After getting dressed, the slaves came to wash him.
But at this moment, a guard came over in a panic and said: "Your Majesty, it's bad... General Pei is hanging!"
As soon as these words came out, Li Yuguo was shocked, his expression suddenly changed, and he immediately said: "How could this be?"
He immediately dressed up and went directly to where Pei Yunhai was without going to court. As soon as he passed there, he discovered that Pei Yunhai was already dead. There was a pot of wine on the table, which was the gift from his royal family. Wine for Pei Yunhai!
Li Yinglian was standing by, watching all this with an expressionless face. Li Yuguo suddenly realized, because Li Huguo had thought about one thing, that is, the secret of the late emperor's appearance. This part of his history was fake, but the world was destined to turn this part into History is in the annals of history.
If Pei Yunhai betrayed Li Yuguo and told the truth, saying that Li Huguo directed this good show, then the prestige and identity that Li Huguo had finally built up would collapse overnight.
So in order to prevent this, Li Hugo considered killing Pei Yunhai, but this idea was quickly rejected by Li Hugo, because Li Hugo himself just wanted to use the rise of the Tang Dynasty to deal with the disaster nine years later.
But if he vetoed it, others didn't think so.
Pei Yunhai also thought of this. Li Yuguo's gift of wine made Pei Yunhai misunderstand Li Huguo's hint and ended his own life to fulfill Li Huguo's Li Tang world.
Pei Yunhai is fulfilling himself.
The manager took out a piece of paper from Pei Yunhai's arms: "Your Majesty, General Pei has a suicide note."
"Bring it to me and see." Li Huguo said.
"May the Tang Dynasty never weaken and command the world through its military power. May your Majesty be in good health and live forever!"
After seeing this note, Li Yuguo really wanted to slap himself in the mouth.
Seeing Li Yuguo in a daze, Li Yinglian thought that Li Yuguo ordered Pei Yunhai to die. As a ruler, there will be stains behind him, and Pei Yunhai followed Li Hugo all the way, so he must know many things. Li Hugo did it to maintain his rule. , and then Pei Yunhai was given death.
The scene in front of him made Li Yuguo understand why Liu Bang chose to kill the hero in the first place. It was not that he wanted to kill, but that he could not do otherwise.
Since ancient times, there have been many people who followed the emperors to fight for the country. However, not many of these founding heroes who made great contributions to the emperors could die well. After the emperors took over the country, most of them would purge the founding veterans. Those who can deprive their rights will be deprived of their rights; those who cannot be deprived of their rights will find opportunities to execute them.
Liu Bang was such a monarch. Before he became emperor, he called himself brothers and sisters with the generals who could help him fight for success. After he ascended the throne and became emperor, he tried his best to suppress these founding heroes. The most difficult thing in the world to fathom is the heart of an emperor. In the early days of Liu Bang's becoming emperor , and did not suppress those veterans who had made great military exploits for themselves. At first, most of these founding generals were named kings with different surnames by Liu Bang.
Just like Liu Bang promised at the beginning, he would never forget his former brothers after he became famous. However, it didn't take long before Liu Bang began to regret it. Liu Bang regretted that he had divided these generals into princes with different surnames. At this time, he felt that he had no power in his hands. Liu Bang, who was protected, tried every means to take back the decentralized rights.
Among these heroes of the early Han Dynasty, well-known ones include Xiao He, Zhang Liang, Han Xin, Peng Yue, Ying Bu, Cao Shen, Chen Ping, Guan Ying, Zhou Bo, Fan Kuai and others. Among them, Han Xin, Peng Yue, and Yingbu were executed. It happened that the three of them were princes and kings with different surnames. The reason was very similar to what Li Yuguo was facing now. The only difference was that Li Yuguo did not directly kill Pei Yunhai, but gave him He drank a glass of wine, and this glass of wine was intentional, as a hint to Pei Yunhai.
If Pei Yunhai didn't want to drink, Li Yuguo wouldn't force him.
