Traveling through the early Tang Dynasty starts with hanging

Chapter 1085

In the Hall of Liangyi, the emperor, the crown prince, the king of Qin and all the prime ministers gathered together, listening to the eloquent talk of Li Huairen, the heir king of Wei... I don't like martial arts and hate literature.

"Huiren is really thoughtful." Li Yuan had a satisfied smile on his face.

Not to mention Li Shan with itchy teeth, even the prime ministers below are a little unnatural... Wasn't King Wei Si forced by your Majesty?
Chen Shuda smoothed things over and asked, "I heard that Huairen has drawn up the list?"

"Yes."

"tell me the story."

What's the point of talking so much nonsense, it's serious to take out the list.

Next, as Li Shan cadenced out the list and enumerated meritorious deeds, the faces of everyone present gradually became stiff.

Chen Shuda's hand stroking his beard paused, and his jaw hurt from pulling it. He was really afraid that Li Shan would take out the list that Cheng Yaojin had tossed out... Then His Majesty would definitely be furious, but he didn't expect that Li Shan would change it. A way, but still flipped the table.

Li Yuan hummed without smiling, and glanced left and right. Prince Li Jiancheng on the left lowered his head, and King Qin Li Shimin on the right looked up at the roof beam above.

Among the prime ministers below, Chen Shuda and Yang Gongren who came out yesterday also raised their heads and lowered their heads. Pei Ji and Feng Lun were all quiet and unnatural, but Pei Shiju was looking at the chattering with great interest. Absolutely Li Shan.

Pei Shiju thought to himself, such nonsense would be a provocation to other courtiers, but for Li Huairen, who has made great achievements and is very knowledgeable, even the Wei Siwang Li Huairen who publicly declared yesterday that he would no longer lead the army, it is a bit of a challenge. Reasonable.

It is said that Li Shan is somewhat justified, it is because Li Yuan is not reasonable, he just persecutes Li Shan based on his status... Everyone wisely declares that he will no longer lead the army, and Li Yuan really can't do anything if he uses this helpless way to overturn the table .

What does it mean to flip the table in a helpless way?

Li Shan first read out Li Xiaogong, the king of Zhao Jun, Dou Gui, the Duke of Feng, and himself.

No one can fault these three candidates. Dou Gui's combat achievements are not very high, because he was not the one who defeated the main force of the Liang army... But after all, he was the commander of the Yanzhou Road to recover the four states and capture and kill the Liang division. The capital, the destruction of Liang Guo, is barely qualified.

But then, Li Shan listed the names of most of the chancellors present in a row. Pei Ji, as a counselor of Yuan Gong, was the first prime minister of the Tang Dynasty.

Then Chen Shuda from Menxia Province, Yang Gongren from Zhongshu Province, and Xiao Yu from Shangshu Province were all listed, only Pei Shiju and Feng Lun were not included.

This is understandable. On the one hand, the two Chancellors of the Wenxi and Pei families cannot all be included;

And Feng Lun was not included because Chen Shuda, who has been attached to the King of Qin since the beginning of this year, has been included, and Xiao Yu is also secretly leaning on the King of Qin.

However, the King of Qin knew that Li Shan and Feng Lun had old grievances, and in a secret conversation before, Li Shan said frankly that he had a bad impression of Feng Lun... and also passed the words through Ling Jing, hoping not to let Feng Lun knew his position.

In fact, ever since Feng Lun became the prime minister, in the Tiance Mansion, he has a very high status in the lineage of King Qin, and now Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Ling Jing and other Li Shimin's confidantes and staff have all entered the court as officials. The importance of Feng Lun in Zhongshu Ling is even more obvious, making it highly valued by Li Shimin.

In terms of status, Feng Lun should be qualified to know Li Shan.

Hearing this, Li Yuan could bear it, but then Li Shan crackled out a series of lists, and all of them made sense, at least it sounded like this.

Yang Shidao, the servant of the Ministry of War who used to guard Lingzhou, Chai Shao, the Duke of Huo who once conquered Tuyuhun in the west, Ren Gui, the late Guan Guogong who once stood alone against Xu Yuanlang, and Li Daozong, the governor of Bingzhou who used to be the city king of Bingzhou alone.

Then there were several defeats of the Turks and the defeat of the main force of the Liang army. The former Lingzhou marching army chief Zhao Guogong Su Dingfang, the current acting state governor Li Jing, and the current Lingzhou road marching commander Shi Xihe County Duke Wen Yanbo.

There are already fourteen people... Li Shan paused, Li Yuan's face was extremely ugly at this moment, and there was an indescribable coldness in his slightly narrowed eyes.

Li Shimin was a little worried, but Pei Shiju, who was sitting leisurely at the back, felt a little regretful... If it ends here, even if Li Shan has made so many great achievements before, even if Li Shan saved him from the knife last year, but only Based on today, His Majesty will definitely alienate Li Shan.

The reason is very simple. Each of these fourteen people has a very important weight in the court. Except for Li Shan, Li Xiaogong, and Dou Gui, there are four ministers, one county king, three state princes, and one county king. There are only seven places, who do you ask Li Yuan to eliminate?
Eliminating anyone will cause dissatisfaction among the courtiers... This kind of opportunity to be famous in history, Wei Si Wang Li Huairen even handed over his name to the imperial court, which is really interesting, enough buddies, but in the end His Majesty removed his name.

Would those courtiers who were eliminated complain about Li Shan?
Of course not, he must not say anything, but he only complains about Li Yuan in his heart.

In other words, Li Yuan wanted Li Shan to take the blame, but Li Shan turned a big pot on Li Yuan's back... You decide who to choose and not to choose!

Although he is grateful that you selected someone, he may be more grateful to me... After all, I put him on the list, and whoever you exclude will complain about you, not me.

Oh, there is one who won't complain about you, Guan Guogong Ren Gui who has died in battle... But death is the most important thing, and it is a bit of a reputation to eliminate Ren Gui.

And if Ren Gui was eliminated because of his defeat in Lingzhou, then King Qin's lineage would have something to say. Pei Ji was defeated twice in Hedong. If King Qin hadn't tried his best to turn the tide, the Tang Dynasty might have become a thing of the past.

How can this kind of situation not make Li Yuan furious, a creature like the Emperor...he may not remember how kind you are to him, but you tricked him once, he will never forget it in his life!

That's where Li Shimin's worries lie, but Pei Shiju doesn't see it that way... Li Shan's fur is better than a monkey's, how could he show such a big flaw!
We must know that under the premise that there is no military power in hand, Li Shan's weight in the battle for succession largely depends on Li Yuan's attitude towards him.

Sure enough, Li Shan, who paused for a while, picked up the water cup on the case and sipped his saliva because his mouth was dry. Outstanding military exploits, but conscientious and conscientious, comforting Jianghuai for His Majesty, deserves to be listed in Lingyan Pavilion."

This is No.15...Wu Zetian's father.
