In Li Renyou's opinion, this brother is too gentle and easy to bully.
Whenever something happens, I always like to keep it in my heart and solve it myself. I never make a big deal out of it, and I don’t dare to make it a big deal. I always feel that if I make a big deal out, more people will be hurt, so I won’t make a big deal out of it. Things got big.
He is also very gentle in dealing with others and rarely loses his temper. Everyone thinks that he is a good and good person.
If he were an ordinary person, he would be a very popular guy, but the important thing is that he is an emperor.
Although he is only the emperor of a small country, he is still an emperor. Since he is an emperor, he must have power and skill, rather than just continue to be a good person and do good things.
The emperor always needs to show kindness and power at the same time. He must let his subjects know that thunder, rain and dew are the emperor's favor. He must be able to control the life of his subjects, so as to control his subjects, and then rule the country and demonstrate his power.
But Li Renxiao is not like this. Li Renxiao's behavior is always filled with the atmosphere of a good old man.
Just like respecting Ren.
Ren Dejing was already so aggressive, but Li Renxiao still couldn't rise up and restrain Ren Dejing.
Ren Dejing took away military power step by step, extended his hand into the inner palace, and began to interfere with Li Renxiao's normal life. Li Renxiao's response was to treat Ren Dejing twice as well.
Li Renyou repeatedly persuaded Li Renxiao to restrict Ren Dejing and do something tough while he was still afraid of the imperial power, so that he would not continue to push his limits.
But Li Renxiao didn't. Li Renxiao believed in exchanging sincerity for sincerity. Whatever Ren Dejing wanted, he would give it to him. If he wanted an official position, he would give an official position, if he wanted a throne, he would give a throne, and if he wanted a fief, he would give a fief.
When Ren Dejing was ill, he sent someone to check on him and ask for help.
I remember that Ren Dejing was seriously ill once. Li Renxiao even went to foreign countries to find famous doctors for him and cured him. He paid more attention to him and gave him many rewards.
Li Renyou asked him why, and Li Renxiao replied that he hoped that doing so could awaken the truth, goodness and beauty in Ren Dejing's heart, make him realize his mistakes, make him grateful to himself, and thus voluntarily give up the power he should not have and become a new person again. A pure minister.
Isn’t this a good story about how the king and his ministers get along well with each other?
So Li Renyou finally realized how naive his brother was.
Can you still give up the power you have gained?
At this point, even if Ren Dejing repented and wanted to be a pure minister, the interest groups surrounding him would not allow him to do so!
Ren Dejing is not afraid of liquidation, but are those scoundrels under him afraid?
What's more, Ren Dejing is a stick. It wasn't until Ren Dejing reached a certain point that he had no response to Li Renxiao's plan to awaken the truth, goodness and beauty, that Li Renxiao vaguely realized that there was no point in doing so.
For a person who has had truth, goodness and beauty in his heart, this may be okay.
But if a person has never had truth, goodness and beauty in his heart, then doing this is just a cross talk show for him, and it is debatable whether he should even applaud.
Li Renxiao is just a clown in Ren Dejing's heart. Watching him perform all day long is like a clown trying his best to please the audience.
Ren Dejing's heart remained unmoved.
Under such circumstances, Li Renxiao finally could no longer give in and endure, and began to want to make a difference.
But by this time it was already too late. Ren Dejing had already taken control of the military and political affairs of Xixia and became the most powerful official in Tianzi. No one could restrict him.
So much so that he actually led troops to the palace to threaten Li Renxiao before, scaring Li Renxiao so much that he almost had a heart attack.
Seeing Li Renxiao looking like he was getting his revenge, Li Renyou really wanted to say something - why did you go there so early?
If you had restrained him earlier, why would you go to this point?
But then again, Li Renyou agreed with Su Yin's solution to the Ming Empire at first, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that there were some problems with this solution.
"question?"
Li Renxiao looked at Li Renyou in confusion: "What's the problem? This is the plan thought up by the Ming Emperor. What's the problem?"
"I'm not questioning the Ming Emperor."
Li Renyou shook his head and said: "What I mean is that what Ren Dejing has in his hands is our most powerful army. Although they obey Ren Dejing's command, they are also our country's troops. If they really want to be placed at the border, If we were defeated by the Ming army, wouldn’t it be my country’s own strength that was lost?”
What Li Renyou said made sense, so Li Renxiao hesitated a little.
But soon, Li Renxiao remembered the scene of Ren Dejing leading troops to the palace to threaten the officials and himself.
The fear at that time was engraved in Li Renxiao's heart and he would never forget it for the rest of his life.
So Li Renxiao gritted his teeth.
"No matter how elite the army is, if it doesn't even obey the emperor's orders and only obeys those who are respectful, then what's the point of it to me? Have you forgotten that he led troops to the palace to threaten me before? Those soldiers Shouldn’t they die? They should pay the price and get the lesson they deserve!”
Li Renyou was suddenly speechless.
He felt that what Li Renxiao said was actually right. If these armies only listened to Ren Dejing's orders but not theirs, what would be the point of life or death?
It would be better to be defeated and annihilated by the Ming army.
But he still felt vaguely that something was not right, that something seemed to have been ignored.
It's just that in the current tense situation, he really doesn't know what to do to preserve everything.
Li Renxiao saw Li Renyou's hesitant expression and immediately reached out and held Li Renyou's hand.
"Don't worry about the loss of some soldiers. Even if they are defeated by the Ming Dynasty, as long as we succeed here, the Ming Dynasty will still return the soldiers to us in the future. We will reorganize them into a new army and all problems will be solved. ?"
When Li Renyou heard what Li Renxiao said, he immediately felt that what he said made sense, so he did not continue thinking, but wholeheartedly planned for Li Renxiao how to attack and kill Ren Dejing despite many obstacles.
They relived the deaths of He Jin and Dong Zhuo together, and learned a lot of wisdom from their predecessors. They felt that they had opened the door to a new world and learned a lot.
"We may be able to use the name of the Queen Mother to summon Ren Dejing and others to the palace for reunion. The Queen Mother has summoned them to the palace many times to talk. They should be used to it and won't be wary. Let's send someone to ambush in advance. On their only path, and then..."
Li Renyou made a gesture of wiping his neck with a stern look on his face.
Li Renxiao's eyes lit up and he thought this was a good idea.
Should he say it or not, his stepmother still stood by him and repeatedly persuaded Ren Dejing not to continue to hold power or do excessive things, so as not to destroy the Ren family.
But Ren Dejing still did not restrain himself and still went his own way.
In fact, Empress Dowager Ren was too naive. Once a matter of power has a beginning, it cannot end casually. Once this path is taken, it is basically impossible to come down.
Do we really expect truth, goodness and beauty to dominate the world?
Even Li Renxiao, who previously believed in truth, goodness and beauty, has given up on this approach. What else is there to say?
So the plan continued to advance, and Li Renyou told Su Yin about the plan. After learning about it, Su Yin learned about the plan, and then personally gave some [professional advice] to make the plan look more complete.
For example, the weapons used should be coated with deadly poison. In this case, even if Ren Dejing cannot be killed with one knife, he can still be poisoned, and the success rate will be higher.
After learning about it, Li Renxiao felt that this was the right thing to do, so he immediately arranged for Li Renyou to deal with it. Li Renyou then carried out the poisoning process on the knives that were going to participate in the operation.
In order to ensure safety, he did it secretly with his wives, concubines, and children, just to maintain the utmost confidentiality.
Thanks to Li Renyou's hard work, every dead soldier involved in this operation was given a poisoned weapon, which could guarantee the killing of Ren Dejing and other children of the Ren family to the greatest extent possible.
These dead men were all collected and found by Li Renyou in many ways. They were all desperate people. By giving their families enough money and preferential treatment, they exchanged for their willingness to fight for their lives and used them as dead men to kill Ren Dejing. .
These dead men are absolutely loyal and reliable, and they all know what Ren Dejing looks like.
In mid-December of the second year of Hongwu, everything was ready except for the east wind.
