The Passionate Guns of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 389
It took nearly three years for Li Yuan and his son to defeat the Turkic invasion first, and then defeated the Turkic puppet Liu Wuzhou.By the spring of the 11th year of Daye, its territory was not inferior to that of Yang Yong. Using the map of the 21st century, its territory included Gansu, Ningxia, Shanxi, northern Hebei, Beijing, Tianjin, and western Liaoning.

With such achievements, Li Jiancheng, Li Shimin, and Li Xiuning all persuaded his father to proclaim himself emperor in private. Their reason was that the Great Sui Dynasty was over, so why bother to hold back?In these years, our old Li's family can be regarded as worthy of the late emperor's family, both in public and in private.Right now, all the heroes are rising together, the celestial dynasty is torn apart, the emperor is young and ignorant, it is difficult to take on the big responsibility, and his mother, concubine Wei, is a female stream, after all, it is difficult to convince the public.There is an urgent need for a master of the Ming Dynasty to turn the tide and calm the world. This is the blessing of the world. This master of the Ming Dynasty is undoubtedly your father, and so on.

The siblings said a lot of high-sounding reasons, but Li Yuan still shook his head, sunk his very rich face, and refused all of them.The three brothers and sisters were stunned. Could it be that the father really regarded fame and wealth like dung?Just plan to guard such a little cub, mother and son, to hang around for the rest of their lives, born as a member of the Great Sui Dynasty, and die as a ghost of the Great Sui Dynasty?He doesn't want to be emperor?Don't want to add an imperial robe and rule the world?

Even Li Shimin couldn't turn his head around, so he secretly consulted with Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui, both of whom were Li Shimin's confidants and advisers, and they had reached the point where they had nothing to talk about.

Li Shimin sent out all his servants and asked them.Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui looked at each other, Fang Xuanling smiled and said: "Young Master, you still don't understand the Duke, the Duke is a man of temperament, he followed the old master to fight north and south, blocking east and west, Flattening the Southern Front and destroying the Northern Qi made great contributions to the Great Sui Dynasty. Especially after the founding of the Great Sui Dynasty, the Duke of the State was even more loyal to the Yang family's country and society, and devoted himself to it. In a word, the Duke of the State was the backbone of the Great Sui Dynasty I have deep feelings for the Great Sui Dynasty. What's more, he and the late emperor are still cousins, how can there be any reason for a nephew to rob my uncle of the country? That's why the Duke of the country refused to be called emperor, the Duke of the country is so righteous!"

After Fang Xuanling said something, Li Shimin remained silent, because although Fang Xuanling intended to compliment their father and son, what he said was very reasonable. Li Shimin thought for a while and said: "Sir, is there no way?"

Fang Xuanling thought for a while and said: "Of course there is a way. For example, as long as the emperor voluntarily abdicates to let the virtuous, the country cannot live without a king. No matter how you look at it, the treasure of the ninety-five years must be the prince of the country."

Du Ruhui continued: "This plan is very clever. We just need to create some public opinion. The emperor is young and he believes that the empress dowager is a smart person. It's not difficult."

Li Shimin thought so, but then his heart skipped a beat. These two are too powerful, they can penetrate people's psychology, so I have to do this.So for the first and only time, he shook his head and rejected "Fang Mou Duan", and then secretly called his brother-in-law, eldest grandson Wuji, and whispered in his ear, eldest grandson Wuji nodded repeatedly.

A few days later, the emperor fell ill for no reason. Several imperial doctors shook their heads like rattles after hearing about it.

At this time, someone warned the empress dowager, since even the imperial doctor could not cure it, it must be a strange disease, and suggested that she go to Zhuanzhu Temple in Bingzhou to offer incense and make a wish. , Sit on a phoenix chariot and come to Zhuanzhu Temple.

When the empress dowager burned incense and knelt down in front of the Buddha statue piously, the old abbot, Master Liaochen, pointed out: "Amitabha, empress dowager, the angry little monk said bluntly, the emperor is sick from worry and suffering from typhoid fever. The body of the dragon can only be relieved of all burdens, the emperor is young and his shoulders are still weak, and he cannot bear the burden of a country."

There is no one who is not smart, otherwise, the empress dowager would not be able to sit in this position.The old abbot's words made the empress dowager wake up like a dream, and immediately issued an edict when she returned to the palace, asking Li Yuan to meet her.Li Yuan didn't know what was going on, but when he arrived at the emperor's sick bed, he knelt down and kowtowed. The emperor was unconscious.

Li Yuan was deeply surprised, and hurriedly kowtowed to stop him: "No, the queen mother, Yuan dared to speak up. Although the emperor is young, he is the true son of heaven. With the help of the queen mother and us veterans, the revival of the Sui Dynasty is just around the corner. Although Right now, the emperor's dragon body is not in good condition, but with the protection of the late emperor, he will surely recover soon, and hope that His Majesty and the Queen Mother will take back their orders."

Empress dowagers are not necessarily old ladies. The empress dowager in front of me is like this. As the mother of a nine-year-old child, she will not be too old. If she can enter the palace, her appearance and qualifications will naturally not be bad. He has already figured out the mystery.Now after listening to Li Yuan's words, I felt resentment in my heart, and thought to myself, why are you pretending to be big cloves of garlic?You have been coveting my son's throne for a long time. On the surface, you are loyal, but you secretly cheat. This kind of person is too scary.If our mother and son hadn't done this, I'm afraid they would have been seriously ill and even died!
But the Empress Dowager still smiled and said: "Li Aiqing, do you dare to resist the order? This is the emperor's intention!"

"I dare not! I obey the order!" Li Yuan kowtowed again, outwardly submissive and regretful that he could do nothing, but his heart was already full of joy.Even though he didn't know the reason, he didn't want to know, the key point was that once the emperor abdicated, the dragon chair in the middle of the Golden Palace would definitely be his duty.

Who doesn't want to be the emperor?Throughout the ages, no matter how great a hero is, no one can resist this temptation. This can be regarded as the weakness of human nature.In order to add to the royal robe, the king will rule the world, and all the organs will be exhausted. There are those who fight each other, those who fight each other, those who suspect father and son, those who become enemies between mother and son, and those who turn against each other. , and some took the initiative to let the virtuous, this is a form or ending of the struggle for imperial power.

Li Yuan is not a true god who does not eat fireworks in the world. He also has emotions and desires. Of course he also wants to be on the ninth five.But his city is very deep, and when the local separatist forces competed to become emperor, he also had impulses, but he didn't show it.Now that position is beckoning to him, once he sits on it, he will be the right man, and he will no longer have to kowtow to others, and in turn, others will have to shout long live to him, how can he not be happy? !

During another great dynasty, the empress dowager and the emperor came to court and announced in front of civil and military officials that the emperor was seriously ill and could no longer bear the heavy responsibility of governing the country, so he decided to abdicate and give up his position to Tang Guogong, who is the world's best in martial arts. Li Yuan.After the decree was read out, all the civil and military officials were surprised or expected, but they all shouted in unison: "Observe the decree!"

The next day, Yang You's mother and son moved into Fenyang and officially recuperated.After that, there was no news of their mother and child.

Soon after Li Yuan proclaimed himself emperor, he chose an auspicious day to officially ascend the throne, calling himself Emperor Gaozu, changing the name of the country to "Da Tang", and adding Dou's family name as empress.This is three years earlier than the Tang Dynasty recorded in history, and the capital is not Chang'an, but Bingzhou (now Taiyuan, Shanxi), which is different from the Tang Dynasty in history. However, the largest Tang Dynasty The difference is the existence of Yang Yong, the righteous and free king who is equally as good as the Li family father and son!

　Thank you very much for the reward of the national hero!
