()Li Jiancheng in history was a talented guy. Li Jiancheng participated in the planning of a series of policies and strategies before and after Li Yuan’s rebellion. After Li Yuan’s rebellion, Li Jiancheng helped Li Yuan contact various aristocratic families, recruit talents, and handle military and national affairs.
etc.
It can be said that without Li Jiancheng, even if Li Yuan could ascend the throne and become emperor in the end, it would not be so easy. Maybe he would have been killed in the process of rebellion!
Unfortunately, Li Jiancheng's fortune was a bit bad. In official history, he met his second brother Li Er who was more vicious than him. In today's history, he met Yuwen Chenglong, an abnormal human being...
After being plotted by Yuwen Chenglong, Li Jiancheng was poor before he became an adult, and Yang Guang, who was already an old man at that time, had a chrysanthemum. Li Jiancheng's mentality was already different from that of ordinary people.
At this moment, when the Tang Dynasty was facing the difficulty of destroying the country, Li Jiancheng was distorted and it was not surprising that he had such a mess.
Li Yuan, on the other side, has always been very satisfied with his eldest son, and has treated Li Jiancheng as his successor to train him early on. Li Jiancheng has participated in the important military and political affairs. Moreover, Li Yuan also regarded his subordinates as his subordinates.
Two ministers who are more trustworthy and have strong abilities, Zheng Shanguo and Li Gang, were sent to Li Jiancheng as helpers.
It can be said that except for those who are the capable people of Li Jiancheng's uncles and uncles among the Li family's direct descendants, Li Jiancheng can take care of most of the people in the entire Li Tang Dynasty!
It is precisely because of this that when Li Jiancheng wants to rebel, the only things that really need to be guarded against are Li Yuan’s messy brothers... .
Everything was about to stop. Li Jiancheng gathered Wei Ting, Feng Li and other confidants, ordered all the troops, and then took Wei Wensheng as the front, and rushed straight to the palace where Li Yuan's old turtle lived.
As soon as they arrived outside the palace, everyone met the General of the Right Guard who was on duty. Li Jiancheng's cheap uncle, Li Yuan's cousin, and Li Shentong.
Seeing Wei Wensheng leading the army to come with murderous aura, Li Shentong realized that something was wrong and quickly ordered someone to report to Li Yuan. At the same time, he ordered his soldiers to be erected with a string knife and unsheathed them to prepare for the camp.
This is the case. Li Shentong is just ready for combat. Among the Tang army opposite, a bunch of people surrounded and a cavalry emerged high.
"Don't you be fine, uncle? My nephew has a good idea!"
After seeing Li Jiancheng, Li Shentong was a little overwhelmed and thought to himself, what is the Prince's Highness going to make trouble?
It turned out that at this time, Li Shentong had not yet suspected Li Jiancheng's head. He thought that Wei Wensheng was going to rebel, but judging from the expression of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, he didn't seem to be kidnapped?
Although surprised, the one who came in front was the prince after all, and his status was noble. Even as an elder, Li Shentong did not dare to neglect at this moment. He hurriedly stepped forward, bowed and shouted, "Wei Minister Youyi
General Li Shentong, the Grand Prince, paid homage to His Highness.”
After Li Shentong bowed, the other soldiers bowed and shouted to pay homage to His Royal Highness the Prince.
Before Li Shentong could finish his shouting, behind Li Jiancheng under the city, a general jumped out of the horse, bent his bow and arrow, and aimed at Li Shentong's chest.
But when he heard the sound of a bowstring, poor Li Shentong had not yet figured out what was going on, but he felt a flash in front of him, his chest was slightly cool, and his body became weak and fell to the ground. However, Wei Wensheng was shot through the chest with an arrow.
, died of anger!
The main general was killed, and the remaining Tang army had no fighting spirit. With the admiration of Li Jiancheng, the crown prince of the current dynasty, they threw down their weapons and knelt down to surrender.
Originally, he thought there would be a fierce battle, but he didn't want the matter to go so smoothly. Wei Wensheng was surprised, but he didn't have time to think about it anymore. He rushed to lead his army into the palace.
Earlier, his elder brother Wei Wentong was killed, and Wei Wensheng held his anger in his chest. Now he finally had the opportunity to start a massacre. Wei Wensheng was not polite at all. After rushing into the palace, Wei Wensheng immediately went crazy, roared and ordered.
, "Kill them all!"
So, after Wei Wensheng's troops passed away, both the imperial guards and the palace maids and eunuchs were cut into meat sauce!
The imperial palace of the Tang Dynasty was very large, occupying almost half of Chang'an City.
Wei Wensheng and others rode in and rushed forward all the way, and soon left Li Jiancheng, who was following slowly, behind.
By the time Li Jiancheng found something was wrong, Wei Wensheng's troops had already rushed into the depths of the palace.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Li Jiancheng didn't care about pretending to be a big-tailed wolf in front of the surrendered soldiers, and quickly ordered his personal troops to speed up the march and rushed to the Tai Chi Palace where Li Yuan's old turtle was living as soon as possible.
Li Jiancheng's reaction was extremely fast, but he was half a beat slower than Wei Wensheng and his entourage.
When Li Jiancheng led his army to Tai Chi Palace, he saw only corpses on the ground and his father's head who was dying with his eyes open.
Poor Wei Wensheng became stubborn as soon as he went to the battlefield. When everyone was killed, Wei Wensheng finally recovered from his sanity. Then, Wei Wensheng realized that he seemed to have been in trouble! And it was not small, because he was whistling.
Wei Wensheng chopped off the head of the old turtle Li Yuan!
But at this time I remembered that I regretted it, it was too late!
But Wei Wensheng's xing style is not as vicious as his brother. Apart from being a little bit stubborn when he went to the battlefield, Wei Wensheng's xing style is quite gentle, and he is an honest child!
After an honest child makes a mistake, his first reaction is to admit his crime first and strive for leniency!
Unfortunately, Wei Wensheng, the honest child, did not get lenient treatment from Li Jiancheng, but was directly taken down by Li Jiancheng and sent to death. As for the charge, Li Jiancheng also thought of Wei Wensheng, that is, to usurp the throne and kill the king of the country.
.
Li Jiancheng was so scared that Wei Wensheng's head was so big that he was afraid that Wei Wensheng would suddenly turn over, so he turned his confession in court, so he ordered his confidant to directly cut off Wei Wensheng's tendons, cut off Wei Wensheng's tongue, and blinded Wei Wensheng.
eyes.
Afterwards, Li Jiancheng made another arrangement, and then urgently summoned the ministers of various departments, servants, generals, etc. to discuss the question of where the Tang Empire will go in the future.
Although he was doubtful about the rebellion last night, all the old officials here were all old officials, so he naturally would not touch Li Jiancheng's rebellion at this time.
Besides, the Tang Empire has no future. His Royal Highness, the crown prince, can do whatever he wants, as long as he doesn't cut off us old guys.
So, these men and women wrote letters, saying that the Taoist country should not be without a king. They asked His Royal Highness to put family affairs aside first, put national affairs first, and ascend the throne and become emperor first.
When Li Jiancheng heard this, he pretended to refuse twice. It was not until the ministers wrote the third letter that Li Jiancheng seemed to be warm and reluctant to agree to the request of the ministers, proclaiming his ascension to the throne and becoming the second emperor of the Tang Empire.
