"Immediately pass the edict: Li Ji, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, was ordered to come to discuss important matters, and then Qiu Xinggong was ordered to suspend Liu Lancheng's hanging, to pardon his grandson's death, and let Li Yun decide on his own!" Li Shimin passed two edicts one after another from the palace. Hurry up, an edict was quickly sent to Li Ji's mansion, and another edict was sent to Daizhou.
"The minister pays homage to your majesty!" Li Ji hurried to the palace, and Li Shimin said straightforwardly: "Raising a tiger is a problem, and Yin Hongzhi bewitched the king of Qi to rebel. According to the information he heard, Qizhou is now the capital of Li You, holding ten in his hand. With more than 10,000 troops, he intends to rebel and proclaims himself emperor."
Li Ji was taken aback, and said solemnly: "Your Majesty wants to send troops to Qizhou?"
"This is an urgent memorial sent by Li Yun, you can take a look first!" Li Ji took it, read it carefully, pondered for a long time, and said: "The minister thought that the advice of His Highness was feasible! Although Liu Lancheng also committed a death crime, The grandchildren who are still in their infancy are not at fault and should be exempted from the death penalty in accordance with the Tang law. As for the young people of the three tribes, they can also be exempted."
"As your Royal Highness said, first send someone to inquire about the news, I am afraid that it will be easy to enter the city, but difficult to get out of the city. The minister concluded that King Qi really wanted to rebel, and he would definitely defend Qizhou City strictly. This is also one of the reasons for the delay in seeing news."
"If it weren’t for Liu Lancheng’s report, perhaps Qizhou would not have known the mutiny, so he was very passive. Now His Royal Highness is in Daizhou, not far from Qizhou. The emperor can tell His Royal Highness to go to Qizhou as an envoy. I believe that Qizhou is now The situation should be quickly understood."
"The news of King Qi's intent to rebel has not yet been leaked. It can be seen that King Qi is preparing everything secretly, something little is known about. If His Highness uses the devil to make his way forward with integrity, and King Qi complies with the imperial edict, then his conspiracy will be revealed. It’s okay to send a large army there."
"His Royal Highness can quietly quell the Daizhou Rebellion. I believe that with his ingenuity, there must be a way to defeat the ambition of the King of Qi. The minister thought that it would be more appropriate to leave it to His Royal Highness to deal with this matter, and His Majesty can personally write a book for His Highness to bring to Qi. State. If King Qi can wake up and avoid swordsmanship; if he is obsessed with not understanding, it will not be too late to put down the rebellion."
Li Ji paused for a moment, frowning, and sighed: "If the minister did not expect it to be wrong, I believe that Governor Qi Shi Quan Wanji has been killed. King Qi has really turned back, and he was forced to be helpless, as well as the treacherous people around him. It only helped the flames and urged them to revolt."
"Oh, according to Qing's words!" Li Shimin pondered for a moment, feeling helpless. He didn't expect his son to dared to conspire, and he felt more sad. Thinking back to the time when he was enthroned and proclaimed emperor, although he was not as blatant as Li You, There are similarities in nature.
Therefore, Li Shimin personally wrote the royal book: "My son, Li You, I don't want you to be so cruel and vainly attempt to rebel. You are the five sons, and my son is also my son, but your path is already wrong. As your father, I have warned Ru Yuan many times. A villain, a virtuous minister, you never take it to heart. You don't talk about lack of virtue and have a surly temperament. There are all flattering words in your ears, and no words of loyalty. As a result, you commit a big crime today and cause disasters and ruin yourself!"
"I am very sad! I hate your stupidity even more, and if you believe in flattery and intend to rebel against the court, can you forget your surname? Tang Jiangshan is the country of the Li family, not the country of his surname, what you did It hurts my heart! If you forget loyalty, filial piety and benevolence, disturb the peace of Qizhou, and harm the people of one party, if I don't care about the relationship between father and son, it is really that you deserved your sin and died."
"You are an adult and a prince, but you don't want to maintain the prosperity and stability of your country. Instead, you become a rebellious thief. You have forgotten your ancestors, you have forgotten your ancestors, you have forsaken the court, you have forsaken me, you have forsaken the people of Qizhou. Now that you are a sinner in the Tang Dynasty, you have no blood relationship with me anymore."
"Rusheng is a rebellious courtier, and death is a ghost of rebellion! I have never heard of your good reputation before, and now it is even more of a bad reputation!"
"I know that there is no shortage of princes in the previous dynasties, but there has never been a prince who dared to take the initiative to make troubles, and I have no such son! If you are so obsessed, don’t blame me for not thinking about the relationship between father and son. I really don’t know what to do. Persuade Yu Ru!"
Tang Taizong Li Shimin wrote, feeling very sad, as if the bitter taste made it difficult for him to swallow. Even though Li You is no longer a thing, he is still Li Shimin's son. Now his mood is really uncomfortable, and tears are streaming from his eyes silently.
Li Ji also didn't know what to say. Perhaps the biggest sorrow was that father and son are like enemies, without blood kinship, but only the heart of power and desire. At that time, Li Shimin killed and killed his brothers, and his iron-blooded wrists ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, and his heirs followed suit.
Even though the king of Qi Li You has not officially announced his conspiracy, everyone knows his actions, and the evidence for conspiracy has been conclusive, and there is no room for sophistry. If Li Yougong made it to the public, then Qizhou would be completely chaotic.
At the same time, as the current emperor, Li Shimin will naturally not sit back and watch, and will definitely send a large army to attack. At that time, it was a new confrontation, which was the last thing Li Shimin wanted to see. This time I wrote the royal book, firstly to persuade Li You to surrender, to avoid the scene of swords and soldiers facing each other and blood flow; secondly, to give Li You a chance to reform and rehabilitate. If he surrenders, he will avoid the death penalty. If he does not understand, he will not complain. His father is cruel.
"The imperial edict: the imperial concubine of Yin and his virtue is lacking, abolished the name of his imperial concubine, and demoted to concubine, all the rewards and rights are removed, and he is ordered to move out of the Lizheng Hall and live in the cold palace. Don't meet with the ministers of the DPRK and China. Violators will be punished severely!"
Li You intends to rebel, and his biological mother Yin De concubine is implicated for her crimes and is demoted from the first-class wife to the second-class concubine. It can be said that the former Concubine Yin De was respected in the harem, and one of the four most powerful concubines besides the eldest grandson, now he has entered the cold palace and fell directly from heaven to the mortal world.
Once again, two edicts were issued at the same time. One edict brought Li Shimin’s handwritten imperial book to Daizhou and handed over to Li Kuan; the other edict was passed directly to the harem, and Concubine Yin De was sleeping on the couch at this time, waiting for Li Shimin’s luck. But she didn't want an edict to crush her dreams.
Suddenly, the news that Concubine Yin De was dismissed spread like wildfire, and even the Empress Longsun was taken aback and didn't understand what was going on. At the same time, Concubine Yin De was taken away to Leng Gong, her heart was like falling into an ice cellar, yelling in fear to see your Majesty, but no one listened. Until the door of Leng Gong was closed tightly, Concubine Yin De could not believe it was true. , The whole person was crazy, crying and yelling, still no one answered.
As the lord of the harem, Empress Changsun quickly went to Ganlu Hall to meet the emperor after hearing this, and asked in person what had happened. Why did she suddenly break Concubine Yin De into the cold palace? Generally speaking, as the king of a country, Li Shimin never intervenes in the affairs of the harem. Everything is handled by the eldest grandson. Today, uncharacteristically, an edict was issued, causing all concubines to panic. Li Shimin had no choice but to tell the reason, and the eldest grandson was horrified. Endlessly, there was silence at last. (End of this chapter)
