"Who are you!"
Li Shimin jumped up immediately when he heard the voice from before. He was too familiar with that voice. When he dreamed back at midnight, that voice echoed in his ears from time to time.
"Who am I!? Li Shimin! Who do you think I am!"
At this time, Li Yuan came to Li Shimin with the big bow in his hand!
Li Yuan really wanted to hang his son with a bowstring!
Because if it weren't for this bastard, I wouldn't have completely lost my rights in this era!
You must know that he was imprisoned by Tang Gaozong, Li Zhi and others before, and his daughter has been monitoring him. Even if he makes any move, his daughter Li Xiuning will beat him with bruises all over his body and all his limbs broken!
She lived like this for seven or eight years, until Tang Gaozong Li Zhi completely took control of the entire court, and his eldest son and second son were both dead, and he had some freedom. .
Li Zhi also showed some admiration for his father and ancestors, and released him and arranged for him a high house, a high bed and soft pillows. Someone would accompany her all day long so that he would not be idle.
He also let himself go out from time to time to show that he, the Supreme Emperor, was still alive and well, so that everyone could understand how kind and filial he was, Tang Gaozong! .
In Li Yuan's view, all this was caused by his unfilial son Li Shimin, but he never thought that it was he who promoted Li Shimin to confront Li Jiancheng, because Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin were both internal and external. He was so strong that he directly sidelined his father, who was the emperor!
So he started a game of raising gu, letting his eldest son and his second son fight. As for who won and who lost? It's no big deal to him, he just wants to tell his two sons that the world is in his hands, and no matter who they are, they must listen to him.
Whoever he lets live can live, whoever he lets die must die, and all the rights in the world belong to him alone!
It's a pity that although the game was well played, Li Shimin overturned the table and directly launched a Xuanwumen rebellion.
Although the Xuanwu Gate Incident did not lead to the death of Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji as happened in history due to some reasons, the result was still the same!
That is, Li Yuan became the Supreme Emperor, and Li Yuan became the Supreme Emperor this time because of his own cleverness. He believed that his son was unreliable, but his daughter was reliable, so he changed his daughter's name and put it on the throne. .
As a result, she should never have changed her daughter's name to Wu Zhao's Zhao character.
Then his daughter really took action against him just like Wu Zetian, and put herself under house arrest, and then put Tang Gaozong Li Zhi on the chair in the court!
Whenever he thought of these things, Li Yuan felt very angry. However, after coming to this world, he found that the Li Shimin in front of him had no sense of heroism at all and looked like a wretched and incompetent person. generation!
"How could it be you? Aren't you supposed to be there? Why are you here?"
When Li Shimin saw his father appearing in front of him, he took two steps back. Then he looked at the position behind him. There was clearly a Li Yuan there!
At this moment, he was really scared. He didn't know which was true or false, but no matter it was true or false, Li Yuan was waiting for him here, which made him really feel very scared!
"Are you waiting for me here? Have you not forgiven me yet? Then you don't blame me for everything? My elder brother forced me to do that. My elder brother wanted to drive me to Luoyang. If I didn't fight back, I will die! Everyone in Prince Qin’s palace will die, I just strike first to gain advantage!”
When Li Shimin saw Li Yuan, he immediately asked why he wanted to launch the Xuanwu Gate Revolution? How wronged I am!
In short, Li Shimin was forced to have no way out, so he had no choice but to launch the Xuanwu Sect!
"you failed!"
When he mentioned this matter again, Li Yuan just shouted.
"Li Shimin, you failed in the struggle in the court. You went to Luoyang because you failed. Your elder brother drove you to Luoyang because he didn't want to kill you. He wanted to take away your rights peacefully! Yes! You don’t abide by political rules, it’s you who are reluctant to give up your own rights, and it’s you who made my country in Litang start the succession law of coup d’état!”
When Li Shimin said that he had to launch a coup, Li Yuan became even more angry, because in the 289-year history of the Tang Dynasty, there were a total of 21 emperors, and only a few emperors such as Tang Gaozong and Tang Yizong came to power in the normal way. Personally, there were as many as 16 coups in the Tang Dynasty that led to changes in the royal family!
And all this is because of the Xuanwu Sect inheritance law pioneered by Li Shimin!
Even before Tang Dynasty Emperor Li Yu, there was no history of the eldest son becoming the emperor in the Tang Dynasty!
In this situation, why is Li Yuan so angry?
So he immediately raised his bow and nocked an arrow, aimed at Li Yuan in the distance and shot an arrow. When flying, the entire body turned into a red fire, and then exploded in mid-air with a bang. When he opened it, the one in the distance, Li Yuan, immediately turned into a green-faced and fanged ghost, while Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji beside him also turned into a red-faced and fanged ghost!
Then, a mushroom cloud rose from the position of the three sharp ones, and the invisible shock wave swept across all places within a 100-meter radius. When the mushroom cloud and my shock wave disappeared, the location of the explosion turned into a piece of white ground!
"Li Shimin, are you just scared by these guys? You are really incompetent to the extreme! I don't make you the prince. It seems that it is really the right thing to do!"
Li Yuan looked at his masterpiece and once again attacked Li Shimin!
In the world of the Tang Dynasty, Li Yuan had no right to dictate to any emperor, not even his daughter and grandson.
Even the foolish kings of the late Tang Dynasty were not in his turn to intervene, so he had not shown his prestige in front of others for a long time.
After she finished all this, Su Lie was the first to applaud.
"The Supreme Emperor is such a great archer! People say that Uncle Wang is the magic arrow in white, but who knew that the Supreme Emperor is the best archer in the world?"
"The Supreme Emperor's arrow is truly unparalleled in the sky and unparalleled in the earth!"
"Your Majesty, this arrow is really amazing! Even those shooting eagle heads are not as good as it!"
Then all the generals began to flatter him, saying how amazing Li Yuan's arrow was. At this moment, Li Yuan felt a little bit offended. He had not heard this kind of boast about him for many years. !
"It's a small shot, nothing worth mentioning!"
Li Yuan stroked his long beard with a look of pride on his face. When he was in the Sui Dynasty, Li Yuan was able to marry his wife Dou just by relying on his magic shot!
So what he was most proud of in his life was his bow and arrow shooting skills!
Seeing the damage caused by that arrow, Li Shimin's jaw almost dropped. He knew that his father definitely did not have such powerful bow and arrow skills, and the bow and arrow should not be so powerful!
This arrow is definitely not something that a mortal can shoot!
So he began to imagine that the new Li Yuan must be a big ghost!
The one who died before was just a kid. He no longer thought that one of the two guys was his father, because his father couldn't be so strong. Others didn't understand how his father married a wife, but she still knew it!
That was Dou Yi, the Northern Zhou general at the time, who deliberately married his daughter to Li Yuan!
The Dou family has been wearing hairpins for generations, and their ancestor Dou Rong was one of the famous twenty-eight Yuntai generals at the founding of the Eastern Han Dynasty. In Dou's father Dou Yi's generation, his experiences are legendary. In his early years, Dou Yi followed Emperor Xiaowu of the Northern Wei Dynasty to move westward, established the Western Wei Dynasty, and was named Fenggao County. After Yuwenjia usurped the throne and established the Northern Zhou Dynasty, Dou Yi joined the Shenwu County Duke because he was on the right side, and was later granted the title of Shangzhu Kingdom.
According to this development, the Dou family should actually develop very smoothly.
It's a pity that Dou's mother is Princess Xiangyang of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, the fifth daughter of Emperor Wen of the Northern Zhou Dynasty.
Dou has been extraordinary since he was a child.
According to historical records, when the Dou family was very young, the then Emperor Yuwen Yong of the Northern Zhou Dynasty married the daughter of a Turkic Khan as his queen in order to have good relations with the northern Turks. This was the famous Queen Ashina in history.
However, Yu Wenyong did not like this Turkic woman and even deliberately alienated her.
At that time, Mrs. Dou often came in and out of the palace because she was her mother.
If we really want to count, Emperor Yu Wenyong of the Northern Zhou Dynasty was still Dou's fourth uncle.
Dou, who was still young at the time, privately advised Yu Wenyong to get closer to the Turkic Queen.
Because in this way, the relationship between the Northern Zhou Dynasty and the Turks can be deepened, which will be very helpful to state affairs.
After all, the Turks, who had not yet split at that time, were a formidable enemy to the entire Central Plains dynasty and an enemy that could not be fought against.
It can be said that a woman has such insight, which can be said to be extraordinary. Even some ministers in the court may not have such insight.
More importantly, judging from the arrival of time, Dou was no more than nine years old at the time.
Because when she was nine years old, Yu Wenyong passed away.
After Yu Wenyong's death, a series of power struggles began within the Northern Zhou Dynasty.
In the end, the power hall of the Northern Zhou Dynasty was controlled by Yang Jian, a foreign relative. Three years after Yu Wenyong's death, his relative Yang Jianqiang, who had firmly grasped power, forced the Northern Zhou emperor, his grandson, to give him the Zen throne. The Sui Dynasty, the first unified dynasty after the Han Dynasty, was born.
Historical records record that Dou burst into tears after hearing that Yang Jian abdicated.
Because he knows very well that there is no such thing as abdication, and some are just forced to seize the throne!
After Yang Jian ascended the throne, in order to consolidate his throne, he began to kill the Yuwen family wantonly.
As the granddaughter of Yu Wentai, Dou is naturally dangerous. Even the entire Dou family was in danger of capsizing.
At this time, if you want to save your family and at the same time save Dou's life, what is the best way?
That is marriage!
It's just that this marriage is not the kind of marriage that you just find someone to marry. Instead, you must find a family with a big background to get married. At the same time, this family cannot have any elders. Otherwise, according to the family's customs at that period, A family with a urinary nature and marriage can completely eat up the entire Dou family!
At this time, Li Yuan fell into the sight of their family. Li Yuan's family was also a pure Han family and was a descendant of the flying general Li Guang.
Li Yuan's grandfather, Li Hu, rose to the rank of Taiwei during the Western Wei Dynasty in the Southern and Northern Dynasties. He was one of the Eight Pillar States of the Western Wei Dynasty and was given the surname Daye.
Therefore, Li Yuan was once named Dayeyuan, which is why the Li Tang family has always been called the descendants of barbarians.
After the establishment of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, Li Hu was posthumously named Duke of Tang. Li Yuan's father, Li Bing, served as an official in the Northern Zhou Dynasty and was named a general of the Zhu Kingdom. He attacked the Duke of Tang Dynasty.
Li Yuan's mother is the sister of Dugu Jialuo, the wife of Yang Jian, a relative of the Northern Zhou Dynasty. This means that Li Yuan has an inseparable relationship with the entire Sui Dynasty royal family. It can even be said that he and the Sui Dynasty royal family share Dugu. The blood of the family.
It's just that at this period, the Li Yuan family was a big noble with no power, and such a big noble with no power and an inseparable relationship with the royal family naturally became a big piece of fat.
Therefore, it seems not difficult to understand that Dou Yi would marry his daughter Dou to Li Yuan.
Moreover, according to unofficial records, Li Yuan was raised by Yang Jian and his wife since childhood.
Although I don't know whether this history is true or false, Yang Jian has indeed been taking care of Li Yuan and is very concerned about him.
Therefore, for the Dou family, they need this marriage. As long as Li Yuan marries their family, then even in the human world, no matter how clean and decorated it is, it is impossible to kill his own nephew and daughter-in-law.
At the same time, it is impossible to kill all his nephew, wife, and family, because if he kills like this, even Li Yuan will be eliminated.
For Li Yuan, being able to marry into the Dou family as a general at that time would also allow him to quickly have his own voice and power in the court.
So Li Yuan and his wife were completely a political marriage, but this political marriage made the two of them live on equal terms, and there were no obstacles in their lives. It can even be said that if Li Yuan's wife hadn't died too early, , can the Xuanwu Gate appear? That's another story.
Just like if Li Shimin's first wife, Queen Wende, had not died, then whether Li Chengqian would have grown crooked is another question. At least Li Shimin would not be so partial to his third son Li Tai.
If this were the case, the entire history would be different.
After all, no matter it was the Sui Dynasty or the early Tang Dynasty, all emperors had one characteristic!
That is fear of his wife. Whether it is Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty Yang Jian, Emperor Ming of the Sui Dynasty Yang Guang, or Emperor Gaozu of the Tang Dynasty Li Yuan, Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty Li Shimin, Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty Li Zhi, these people all have this characteristic and are afraid of their wives.
And they are not the ordinary fearful ones. It can be said that half of their power is in the hands of their wives.
