Da Tang: Three days later, I was frantically collecting supplies

Chapter 144 wants to establish another prince, Li Shimin’s entanglement.

Chang’an City.

A few days ago, Li Chenggan was ghostly and became a state of neither male nor female. Li Shimin has always hesitated one thing.

Removed Li Chenggan’s crown prince.

Anyway, a eunuch can’t be an emperor. But I don’t know who is the right person to change.

Li Tai, it’s okay to compose poetry, but he hasn’t been trained according to the heir who inherits the great lineage since he was a child, and it’s a little biased.

Li Zhi is even worse, although he is a little smaller, he can still see that he is weak and does not have the decisiveness of killing that an emperor should have. When Li Shimin thought of his fifteen princes, he directly thought of Li Ke.

In terms of ability, talent, and prestige, he is the most suitable. But in terms of background, he is the most inappropriate.

“Report! Your Majesty, the Turkic envoys are visiting. ”

Li Shimin was stunned.

What are they here for?

However, due to the tense relations between the border and the Turks, he still met with the envoys.

“What? King Zhenyuan sent more than 5,000 troops to the Turkic tribes to burn, kill and loot? When was this? ”

When Li Shimin heard the envoy say this, he was instantly taken aback.

“Your Majesty, exactly a month ago.”

Li Su, the king of Liang, threw 5,000 iron tools and wore heavy armor, swept through more than a dozen tribes in our Turkic steppe, plundering countless people.

“Then he stormed the city. After that, tens of thousands of slaves, thousands of horses, countless cattle and sheep were captured. My Xueyantuo tribe suffered heavy losses. ”

Li Shimin was stunned again.

How many people are led by 037?

Only five thousand people beat you to this example? Li Shimin just wanted to say at this time: Nice job.

After some exchanges, Li Shimin understood the intentions of the Turkic envoys. Come and admit it.

This is no wonder Li Kei and Li Su. Li Shimin also heard about it.

In the past few months, the Turks went to Liaoshun to rob grain several times, and the nearby people complained one after another. Even once even stolen grain seeds, it was really abominable.

Because it was the first time that the prince was arranged on the border, Li Shimin left a heavy army. One is for insurance, but to protect the safety of the prince.

At the same time, Li Shimin wanted to see how Li Ke’s treatment of border troubles was at that time. The result was a bit of a disappointment for him.

Li Kei did not fight back, but built a high wall. But it didn’t take long to reverse.

The walls were built, but the Turks could not attack.

Li Su was idle and went to sweep up more than a dozen tribes.

This wave of operation really made Li Shimin glance at Li Su. It is quite wise to treat others in their human ways.

And still not deep, after grabbing and running, back to the city to continue the defense.

It’s just that some tribes on the border grabbed some grain and made small troubles, and Li Shimin gradually forgot about this. As a result, it was only a few months.

Through the envoy’s briefing, Li Shimin also understood what happened this time. Li Yu actually carried 5,000 iron horses to break through the city of people.

Once you have broken through, it is reasonable to occupy the city!

But he didn’t, not even a single high-ranking person.

More than 10,000 slaves were directly captured, as well as beautiful women, horses, cattle and sheep. Do not stop, do not accept surrender, but turn around and go.

This wave is very hurtful and extremely insulting.

Li Shimin had to comfort a wave of envoys and then sent him away. When the Turks were defeated, some people advised Li Shimin to slaughter them all. It’s just that Li Shimin knows it well.

It was geographically remote, there was not enough food and the garrison consumption was too great. Moreover, even if the East Turks are destroyed, other tribes will rise again.

So Li Shimin kept the tribe. It’s been very honest over the years.

However, they could not stop the border tribes from running out of food, and occasionally went to the border of the Great Tang Kingdom to grab some grain to make a living. This is good, and I met the ruthless character Li Su.

It is not possible to rob grain in reverse, but also bring burning and looting.

And even the city was captured, but not occupied. Li Shimin suspected that Li Su was purely going to beat up the Turks for fun.

“Good, good! Li Yu’s combat talent is still genetic. ”

Wait a minute!

If Li Kei is crowned prince.

There is Li Ke, who governs the country, and Li Shu who protects the country. It seems that it is not impossible to make Li Kei a prince?

At least it is currently much stronger than the other princes.

This two brothers are a good combination.

Just when Li Shimin was thinking about it, Changsun Wuji came.

Li Chenggan became like that, and Changsun Wuji, as his own uncle, knew. In the past few days, Changsun Wuji has been persuading Li Shimin to make Li Tai crown prince. Li Shimin also has this meaning.

Only, after this period of observation.

It was found that Li Tai’s ability to govern Yangzhou was not good. Basically, I don’t pay attention to political affairs a lot of the time.

Instead, he was obsessed with calligraphy and composed poetry.

For months, dozens of big brothels in Yangzhou have played through. This is too far behind the diligent Li Ke.

Therefore, Li Shimin did not make up his mind.

Anyway, Li Chenggan still doesn’t know about it, and he is not in a hurry to meet at this time.

“Your Majesty, the country’s social welfare is important, so please ask Your Majesty to change Qingque to the crown prince as soon as possible!”

Li Shimin waved his hand and said, “Chenggan hasn’t broken free from his sadness yet, I’m worried that he can’t stand it, let’s talk about it later!” ”

“Your Majesty, how can national affairs be mixed with personal emotions? Your Majesty should pay attention to the Jiangshan community! ”

Changsun Wuji was dedicated to the social ji, using Jiangshan Sheji as a bargaining chip, and wanted to urge Li Shimin to replace Li Tai as the crown prince as soon as possible. But Li Shimin is not stupid.

He naturally wanted to support Li Tai as the crown prince. After all, it was his own nephew.

Think about it.

The Changsun family is extremely powerful, and he will do his best to support Li Tai in the future. When the emperor is supported, it is still much easier. However, Li Shimin still did not agree to his suggestion.

Instead, he took care of Li Chenggan’s emotions and pushed the matter off.

Thinking of Li Shu’s sweep of the Turks, and of Li Ke’s excellent results in governing Yizhou and Liaoshun, it is simply unprecedented and unprecedented. Li Shimin hesitated.

If Li Chenggan is the prince, it is in line with the rule that the elder does not stand young.

But Li Chenggan is no longer good, and if he makes other princes princes, it is too risky. He didn’t want several princes to repeat the Xuanwumen change in order to compete for the throne. If so, then the world of the Li family is bound to be criticized again.

Alas, it is difficult to be an emperor!

I want to keep the rivers and mountains, and I have to take care of the emotions of my sons. We must also do everything we can to save the lives of our children.

The hardest thing is to be born in an imperial family.

“Report! Princess Changle has arrived! ”

“Father, this month’s electricity bill has been collected, and the children brought two percent, this is the third brother and the children to honor you. Guess how much to bring? ”

Li Shimin smiled slightly: “Not bad, I didn’t raise you in vain, this is all back money!” ”

So he guessed: “A thousand times? ”

“Less!”

“Two thousand?”

“Still less!”

“It won’t reach 10,000, will it?”

“Still less! Tell you, two percent is 160,000! ”

Li Shimin was shocked.

“Much, how much?”
