To be fair, they do have two brushes.
It's a pity that Li Shimin has more brushes.
It can even be said that, looking at the five thousand years of history, few people dare to pat their chests and say they are better than Li Shimin.
Liu Che carried out the live broadcast with great interest:
"The enemy general is out in battle, and he looks very confident!"
"Oh, my God, he's got an A--"
"The enemy general played GG!"
Li Shimin killed him with three shots, and then went straight to find the rebel coach - he was never someone who would insult his opponents on the battlefield, but he didn't mind looking down upon those opponents who were too inferior. An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.
The war should be conducted in a war-like manner. On the day the rebels entered Beijing, Princess Li's heart was cut out alive to sacrifice the flag. So today the war is about to end, and the same method should be used to bring an end to this turmoil.
Tit for tat, isn't it fair?
Teng Zhong captured a young general, whom he knew to be the son of the rebel commander. Li Shimin urged his horse over, and the spear was suddenly placed on his neck: "Where is your father?!"
The young general was obviously trying to catch a duck, and he had never experienced the baptism of blood. He burst into tears and said: "I said it, can you spare my life..."
Li Shimin sneered and said, "Can you negotiate terms with me?"
After finishing speaking, without waiting for the other party's response, he swept across and cut his throat: "You deserve it too!"
He waved his arm to shake off the blood droplets on the tip of the gun. His eyes were sharp and his expression was arrogant: "I have always been fair in dealing with people. I never look at people's food. The emperor will kill you without fail. If I spare you today, I will die in the underground world." When you meet the emperor, don’t you think you can’t help him?!”
Li Shimin snorted coldly: "Tell me how to behave like a man with my chest upright and my head raised!"
Chapter 147
The situation has developed so far, and the capture of the capital is already within reach. However, how to appease the people of the capital who have suffered a lot in the past few months and restore the sharply reduced population and economy in Guanzhong is the top priority.
Li Shimin led his army into the city, first captured the rebel commander, and then ordered people to search for the officials of the puppet dynasty. He had a special person go to clarify their merits and demerits, and he would not go to the capital to punish them until they were completely taken over.
As a result of the long-term war and chaos, this largest capital city in the world with a population of one million is in a state of disrepair. Broken walls and ruins can be seen everywhere. Occasionally, rebel soldiers suddenly rush out from the corner, and they are quickly surrounded. The Texas soldiers fought back and killed only civilians, but not a single one was seen.
Li Shimin slowed down his marching speed and rode through the wide and long streets. He heard the sound of murderous shouts, and the air was filled with the lingering smell of blood.
I don’t know how many years ago, he once galloped through this street. He also stopped his horse and touched the bricks on the side of the majestic city gate with his own hands. After the Xuanwu Gate incident, he even met his wife Together, we overlook all living beings from the highest point of Tai Chi Palace...
But those things are all in the past after all.
Li Shimin has never realized so clearly that nothing in this world is eternal.
Thinking of this, he felt depressed for a moment, but he soon cheered up.
People are not gods, and it is enough to do what they do now. As for what will happen a hundred years from now, who can care about it.
He once created a glorious and prosperous age with his own hands, and all nations came to court, shining in the annals of history, with a clear conscience.
And now... maybe it's time to start a new era.
…
After taking control of the capital, the world can almost be said to be in Li Shimin's hands.
And Zheng Falan lived up to his title as a master of raising dragons. The first thing he did when he entered the city was to deeply bow to his lord: "In the past, when we were in Dezhou, our lord declined to proclaim himself emperor, because he had great ambitions and was willing to use his fame before he could achieve it." Encourage yourself and spur the officials. Today, the capital has taken possession of the capital, and the world is excited. Why don't you ascend to the throne, my lord, to strengthen people's hearts and suppress the country?"
This guy can always find the most enjoyable part...
Li Shimin had too much to say, but he did not refuse the matter. After readily agreeing, he ordered his left and right officials to discuss the name of the country.
The ministers thought to themselves: Is there any need to talk about this?
Of course, it is from the lord’s royal title!
Qin Dynasty!
There were also some quick-thinking people who felt that if the lord really wanted to use the word "Qin" as his nickname, he probably wouldn't ask questions openly, so he put forward various suggestions in an endless stream.
"De" means De in the state, "Qing" in Gyeongju, "Yi" in Yizhou, and some people have suggested taking the words from the year names used by the ancient sages...
Li Shimin listened to everyone's opinions and finally decided to name the country "Tang".
Ministers: "..."
Ah this.
As I said a long time ago, our protagonist is a bit rebellious.
…
Li Shimin has experienced other worlds before, but those worlds are very different from this world - that is, they are completely different from the Tang Dynasty that he is familiar with, although they are also the Central Plains Dynasty. , but it would not make him recall the past so deeply.
But at the moment, he really felt like he had returned to the Tang Dynasty and opened a book again...
Li Shimin secretly swore: "This time, I will take back everything that belongs to me!"
Then he began to ask historians to compile the history of this dynasty.
There is no Xuanwu Sect incident, no annoying father and older brothers, and you can still fatten yourself by harvesting the wool of counselors.
This time, it’s the perfect Li Erfeng!
Since the capture of the capital, Dezhou civil and military officials have come here one after another. Firstly, the disputes in various places have basically come to an end, and there is no need to continue to stay in the local area. Secondly, major events in the world have begun. It’s determined that the King of Qin will ascend the throne soon, and the time will come when he will be rewarded based on his merits.
It is also for this reason that after entering the city, the civil servants and military generals were extremely motivated to work.
Although everyone may not have started the rebellion for fame and wealth, they have all reached this point. If they don't find a wife to protect them, wouldn't they be living up to their fate?
I have always been the first in literature, but I have the official position and the lordship!
As the first wife of King Qin, Princess Xiao of Qin must be the queen.
As the sworn brother of the King of Qin, although Li Qiao joined the family late, he can't stand up to others. He has great achievements and is valued by the King of Qin. If nothing goes wrong, he will probably be named the King of Different Surnames... Bah!
Same surname as Wang!
And King Qin's adopted sister Yu Yingying will probably also get the title of eldest princess.
But apart from that, the rest of the people have to draw a question mark.
Now that the world has been settled, the military attachés have gathered in the capital. There is no tough battle to fight for the time being, but it is different for the civil servants. For them, the real battle has just begun!
Pang Ying and others who were the first to follow Li Changsheng in the uprising were small in number and not well-known. However, they were original stocks and had the support of Teng Zhong and other sworn brothers. How could they be inferior to others at this time?
Wei Xuancheng was almost the first counselor to surrender to Li Shimin. After Qingzhou surrendered, he more or less absorbed the elites from King Wei's command, and he also formed his own line.
And Wang Shilang relied on his effective performance during the night chaos in the capital to capture the officials who left the capital and came to join the King of Qin after the night chaos.
In addition to this, there are many famous people like Zhang Boyin who came to join him after hearing about the deeds of King Qin in the later period.
Li Shimin was well aware of the many civil servant factions under his command, but did not interfere too much.
It is not a good thing to be the only one in the court. Good and orderly competition is the long-term solution.
In order to find a good official position in the new dynasty that is about to be established, Wei Xuancheng has been working from early in the morning to late at night in recent days. He climbed up from the collapse before the rooster crows and went to the "official office" to serve as a director. He did not agree to return until the middle of the month. Home.
My lord, am I, who is such a model worker, not worthy of a minister, Zuopushe?
Wei Xuancheng initially heard reports that when the King of Qin asked people to compile the history of the new dynasty, he didn't pay attention until one of his confidants told him that the person who compiled the history had already written it. When "Chasing Xuancheng under the Changsheng Moon", I woke up in shock.
"Nonsense!"
Recalling the inability to argue, the difficulty of redressing grievances, and even the several stabbings in the back by the King of Wei, Wei Xuancheng became angry and jealous: "It is not what the public spreads!"
He wanted to go to the person who compiled the history to explain it clearly, but he was stopped by his confidant on the way, and said mysteriously: "I heard that someone once saw His Highness the King of Qin secretly summoning the editor in private, and whispered for a long time... Do you think this matter was ordered by His Highness the King of Qin?"
Wei Xuancheng: "..."
Ah this.
As for my lord? !
Are you really just stepping on me, your subordinate, just for your glorious image? !
You are a human being, not just a phoenix. Why are you constantly opening the screen?
Wei Xuancheng had so many tricks for a while that he had no words to speak of.
I wanted to go to the editor to explain it clearly, but I also felt that if this matter was really arranged by King Qin, even if he really went there, I might not be able to explain it clearly.
... Let’s get down to business first.
As far as he knew, Zheng Falan was also eyeing the position of Shangshu Zuopushe, not to mention that there was a minister Wang who was more prestigious than him and was eyeing him.
Don’t take it lightly!
Then after waiting for the next shift, he hurried to the official office where the editor was.
How can you sit back and watch someone throw dirty water on me and slander my name? !
Who can bear this!
When Wei Xuancheng arrived at the place, before anyone could go in, he saw Zheng Falan's trusted attendants guarding the door.
Wei Xuancheng felt as if he had been burned, and his heart suddenly suddenly thought: "Did I think wrong? In fact, it is this man named Zheng who wants to ruin my reputation, not the King of Qin?"
Turning his eyes slightly, he did not go through the main entrance, but made a circle and went to the courtyard from the side entrance.
There was a strong fire in the inner room, and the editor opened the window a slit. Wei Xuancheng carefully leaned over and tried not to attract anyone's attention, lying on the wall like a gecko and carefully eavesdropping.
Zheng Falan's voice came from inside: "Gong Wei, as a famous official in the world, how could he do the despicable things in the rumors? If you really believed the rumors, you would be looking down on him too much! "
Wei Xuancheng originally thought that Zheng Falan, competing for the position of Minister Zuopushe, would definitely be on the same side as him and add insult to injury. Unexpectedly, when he heard such a sentence, he immediately froze where he was, sighing and feeling ashamed.
In the inner room, the editor had no choice but to say: "Mr. Zheng, it's not that I want to embarrass Duke Wei, but it's rumored that I can't just ignore it, right? Besides, it's just a record at this time. It is not a final draft. Someone has to review it in the future. Only after it is approved will it be recorded in the history books..."
Zheng Falan retorted seriously: "It was wrong at the beginning, how can we expect the ending to be correct?"
It is difficult to write an official profile.
Zheng Falan saw this and said: "In that case, let me replace Wei Xuancheng."
He said: "He and I once served together under the King of Wei, and we were colleagues with His Highness the King of Qin. Anyway, this matter is not widely spread outside Dezhou. There is no need to publicize it at this time. Let's just say that that day was How about chasing Fran under the everlasting moon?"
Outside the window, Wei Xuancheng opened his mouth in surprise.
The editor was also stunned: "How, how can this be achieved? Mr. Zheng, once your name is recorded -"
