Chapter 425: First in Merit (Sixth Update!) )


The sixth is sent, asking for monthly passes, subscriptions, and rewards The emperor had an edict ordering all the armies to be punished by the king of Qin Xiao Yu announced that the North Gate Forbidden Army was the first to suspend its troops, and then immediately targeted the palace soldiers.

The soldiers led by Liu Hongji and Yin Kaishan, who were barely supporting, immediately turned over.

The attack from both sides, especially the sudden defection of the North Gate Forbidden Army, made the palace soldiers suffer from the enemy.

In addition, Jiancheng was escorted to the Xuanwu Gate to show up, and the palace soldiers abandoned their weapons one after another.

Feng Li and Xie Shufang are still fighting and refuse to give up.

But there is no way back At this time, the main force of the forbidden army led by Fan Shixing and Yang Mao, and the guards of the Qin Wang's Mansion led by Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui, as well as Zhu Wenwu and the family members in their mansion also arrived.

The Xuanwu Gate was reopened, and Fan Shixing and Yang Mao took the edict and handed over the military power.

Li Shimin ordered on the spot to let Li Wen bite Jin Shan Xiongxin and other generals remotely, and took over the power of the Chang'an Forbidden Army.

Li Chao was also ordered to go to the East Palace and the Qi Palace, together with Pei Shiju and Zheng Shanguo, to announce the edict.

The guards of the Qin Palace, as well as the soldiers and horses composed of the families and personal guards of the old Qin Palace, quickly took over the defense of the eight gates of the Taiji Palace.

On the same day, Li Shimin returned to the Chengqian Palace.

The situation is progressing very well, everything is as Li Chao once said to Li Shimin, as long as they hold a key card, then they can win the overall situation.

After Li Shimin let the generals take charge of the Chang'an army, he specially ordered Li Chao to bring 800 Taozhou Ya soldiers and 2,000 soldiers to garrison outside the Xuanwu Gate to take over the position of the original camp of 2,000 Yulin troops.

It was night, and the lights in the Chengqian Palace were bright.

Li Shimin discussed with a group of civil and military subordinates here.

The eldest grandson Wuji suggested, "Give death to the king of Jiancheng and Qi, and wipe out all their henchmen" Li Shimin was silent, although he had mastered the situation, it was not stable, the current situation was fragile, and under the calm was an undercurrent, Li Shimin did not dare to be careless.

But to kill Jiancheng and Yuanji, he hesitated.

"Wenyuan, what do you think" Li Shimin asked Li Chao directly.

Li Chao sat in the corner of one side, very low-key.

The change of Xuanwu Gate, he has appeared too many times in this big drama, Li Chao also knows what it means to be a master of high merit, and Xuanwu Gate will not be able to make no effort.

But now that he's won, he can keep a low profile.

It's just that sometimes, it's not so easy to keep a low profile.

Li Shimin has not forgotten Li Chao, this person who can always give him hope at a critical time, he will never forget.

"If His Royal Highness wants the stability of the country, then kill Jiancheng and Yuanji."

Li Chao's words made Li Shimin unexpected, and beforehand, Li Chao repeatedly told him that if he could not kill the two of them, he should not kill them, and life is more important than death.

But now he said kill again.

"You seem to have something to say" "If His Highness just wants to be an ordinary prince and an ordinary emperor in the future, then I advise His Highness to kill the two."

Li Shimin stared at Li Chao, "Finish speaking." ” "If Your Highness wants to be a wise monarch, or even to be honored for all generations, then Your Majesty cannot kill them."

The eldest grandson Wuji retorted, "Why can't you kill it, if you don't cut the grass and don't eradicate the roots, there will be endless troubles" "What are the troubles, Your Highness put them under house arrest in Beijing, what can they do If you think that Your Highness is afraid of even these two prisoners, then I can only say that you have too little confidence in Your Highness.

Even these two people can't clean up, so how will the whole world be cleaned up in the future, how will the Turks, Goguryeo, and Tuyuhun be cleaned up in the future?"

"Your Highness, it's easy to kill someone, but after you kill it, you can't come back to the sea.

Don't be happy for a while, and then you will hold a grudge for life.

Does Your Highness want to be called by the world as a person who kills your brother and brother, doesn't Your Highness want Your Majesty to canonize you as the crown prince, and when you build Yuanji to bow down to you on the side, don't you want to bow down to you when you ascend the throne in the future, the crown prince and Yuanji bow down to you" Jiancheng bows to Li Shimin, then it is surrender, although this still can't hide the truth about his palace change and seizure of the throne, but it can show the world another situation.

Let the people of the world see that Jiancheng was abolished first, and Li Shimin was reestablished later, and saw Li Jiancheng surrender to Li Shimin.

What's more, if it is not killed, then other old departments such as the original construction will naturally not have to worry.

Even if it is the old department of the prince, as long as there is no way out, there are not necessarily a few people who will really rebel.

There is no way out to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, so the dog will jump over the wall and rebel.

Li Shimin agreed with these words.

Mutiny Xuanwu Gate, there is no way, but since they have already won and are already in control of the situation, then why should he be afraid that the prince and the king of Qi have already become his prisoners, and what reason is there to be afraid of them Could it be that they have become prisoners, and they can still command the world?

It is indeed better not to kill than to kill. killed, the performance is to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, but as Li San said, his reputation for killing his brothers and slaughtering his brothers will not be changed, and it will also make those princes' old subordinates everyone in danger and fearful, and if they don't do well, they will force those people to rebel.

Since even Jiancheng and Yuanji don't plan to kill them, then their subordinates, of course, are also pardoned.

The premise is that they can be loyal to Li Shimin and willing to hand over power.

If you have the confidence to control the situation, don't go on a killing spree, if you are not sure, then kill.

But killing people is refreshing for a while, but the aftermath is endless.

It was not right to get the position, and if it was a big killing, there would be fewer people who supported it.

The consequences of the purge are very serious, although it can purge the opposition, but it will also put all the old henchmen of Jiancheng and Motoyoshi in danger, and then they will rebel in order to protect themselves.

If Li Shimin didn't kill Jiancheng Yuanji, and let the emperor issue an edict not to blame the past, then the result would be very different.

Although it is also dangerous to do so, after all, the opponents are still there, but as long as they can control the situation, then under the general trend, these people will eventually switch to the new prince.

After all, there are very few people who are really willing to rebel for the revenge of the crown prince King Qi regardless of everything, regardless of themselves and their families.

Rebels, more often than not, have no choice.

Fang Xuanling also suggested to Li Shimin that they had just succeeded in seizing the throne, and what they needed at this time was not to kill, but to be lenient and benevolent.

But at the same time, we need to be more vigilant.

"Please choose a general to guard Luoyang in case of emergency."

Li Shimin's eyes looked directly at Li Chao, in his heart at this time, he was both capable and loyal and reliable, and it was none other than Li Chao.

However, Li Chao didn't want to go to Luoyang at all.

He stared at his head without saying a word.

Li Shimin coughed twice, and Li Chao finally raised his head.

"Wenyuan" Li Chao didn't wait for Li Shimin to finish speaking, and immediately said, "The last general will recommend Jiang Guogong out of Luoyang."

Li Shimin paused for a moment and looked at Qu Tutong.

Qu Tutong is also a veteran, he was a general of the Sui Dynasty in his early years, and he was already quite prestigious.

Later, when Li Yuan went south to Guanzhong, Qu Tutong also fought several battles with the Li family, and Li Yuan couldn't advance or retreat, and finally forced Qu Tutong to land.

Since then, Qu Tutong has been following Li Shimin to fight in the east and west, and he has worked hard and made great achievements, and he is also a general who has won Li Shimin's trust.

Although the old general Qu Tu is old, he is not ambiguous, and he does not have as many fancy intestines as Li Chao.

As soon as he heard Li Chao's recommendation, he stood up immediately.

"The last general is willing to go to Luoyang" Li Shimin was greatly pleased, and the old general Qu Tu was his own people.

"Okay, I will ask Your Majesty tomorrow to appoint the old general Qu Tu as the governor of Dugi Province and guard Luoyang."

Appointed a governor of Dugi Province to guard Luoyang, but Guanzhong also needed a capable and reliable general to lead, Li Shimin looked at Li Chao again.

"Wenyuan, Guanzhong is undecided, I ask you to take up the position of the governor of Guannei Dao."

"Your Royal Highness, the governor of Guannai Province is very important, the minister's qualifications are shallow, and his prestige is insufficient.

Li Shimin pursed his lips, such an important position as the governor of Guannei Province, this Li San actually pushed back and forth.

"Lone thinks it's good for you to be the governor of the capital."

"Hey, Your Highness, I'm really afraid that I'm too young to control the scene, you better spare me, I recommend one person, absolutely loyal and reliable, full of ability.

He is the Duke of Yiguo, the general of the Right Guard, Qin Yuma" Qin Qiong is a candidate, Li Shimin agrees with it.

Qin Qiong is loyal and reliable, brave and unparalleled, and also married her fifth sister, who is her brother-in-law and family.

Moreover, Qin Qiong's official position was originally enough to hold this position, he was originally the governor of Hebei Province, and he was also the squire of the military department.

What's more, today Qin Qiong also stood up to speak for him at a critical time.

At that moment, Li Shimin had no choice but to nod, "Shubao, it is up to you to take on this important responsibility, and tomorrow I will ask my father to grant you the position of the governor of Guannei Dao." ” Let's move on.

Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui all believe that the sooner the emperor should appoint the king of Qin as the crown prince, the better, and the sooner the establishment can stabilize the people's hearts.

In the end, it was decided that early tomorrow morning, he would enter the palace to invite Li Yuan and ask the emperor to make King Qin the crown prince.

Li Shimin said to everyone with emotion, "Xuanwu Gate, Li Chao, eldest grandson Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Qin Qiong, and Wei Chigong should be the first."

As soon as Li Shimin's words came out, everyone in the hall had their own thoughts.

For example, Hou Junji thinks that he has made a great contribution, and on the same day he entered the Xuanwu Gate with the King of Qin to capture the prince and Yuan Ji, and he also saved the life of the King of Qin at that time, and he was one of the eight generals of the Xuanwu Gate What is Qin Qiong's merit, he has been drinking in front of the emperor all the time, and he has done nothing.

But now, Qin Qiong actually ranked first in merit with Zhang Wenyuan and the other five people, and he has also won the post of governor of Guannei Dao.

But he didn't have the courage to say it in front of everyone, Qin Qiong was the brother-in-law of King Qin, and he was originally the governor of Hebei Province and the general of Youwuwei.

And he's just a royal army.

But in his heart, he decided that Qin Qiong's joint first merit originally belonged to him.

Li Chao didn't react too happily when he heard that he had been rated the first merit.

Too much credit is not necessarily a good thing.

Merit is like debt.

If you have merit to the monarch, it is equivalent to that you have lent him money, and he owes you money.

Borrow money, borrow a little, that's a favor, borrow more, it's feelings.

But if he borrows too much, so much that he can never pay it off, then the debt becomes an enmity.

He'll wish you were dead, and then he wouldn't have to pay the debt.

Li Shimin doesn't borrow much money from Li Chao now, but after all, it is a lot, and Li Chao still hopes to be more leisurely.

The success of Xuanwu Gate must be rewarded for meritorious deeds, and everyone is looking forward to it.

But now you can't be in a hurry, Li Shimin himself has not yet become the prince, and today's saying these six first merits is actually to appease everyone.

Don't worry, they all have a share, come one by one, and evaluate the six first merits first.

At that time, everyone will compare these six great heroes and compare them themselves.

The eight generals in front of the Xuanwu Gate, the nine generals in the back, or the eight generals of the Xuanwu Gate led by Li Shimin, and the thirty-six generals outside the palace by Li Chao, this is the greatest credit this time.

Of course, Liu Hongji, Yin Kaishan, Fang Xuanling and other contributions outside the palace are also very great.

But no matter whether it was in the palace or outside the palace at that time, as long as it was involved in the Xuanwu Gate this time, everyone was very excited.

Participating in the Xuanwu Gate, they made the right bet, with a small and big, the craziest adventure, and they must also get the highest returns.

No matter what the reward will be, they will be heroes for decades to come Many people are beginning to think about what they can do and what reward they will receive.

Li Chao didn't think about it, he knew that since he had won the tie for first place, he would at least have the title of duke of a country by then The monthly pass 13001400 add two chapters, ten thousand rewards plus one chapter, yesterday I still owe thirteen chapters, today I added four chapters, and I still owe 12 chapters t1706231537:
