Chapter 368: God’s favor? The troops march out of Yanmen Pass!
Chapter 368: God’s favor? The troops march out of Yanmen Pass!
It was just like Ying Zheng's mentality when he learned about Zhu Houzhao's plot.
Li Shimin now also realized this.
It was an indescribable emotion.
Frustrated? Humiliated? Angry? Shocked?
These emotions may exist.
But more of it is a deep envy.
Such a condescending attitude.
How confident do you have to be to do this? !
Zhu Houzhao was just a boy of sixteen or seventeen years old.
How dare you do that?!
It is truly a blessing from heaven.
.....
Li Shimin stared at the letter.
It seemed as if I could see Zhu Houzhao's cold, condescending gaze through this letter.
I also saw the future of the Tang Dynasty.
After a full moment.
Li Shimin just came back to his senses.
He looked at Changsun Wuji: "What do you think?"
How to watch?!
Chang Sun Wuji hesitated for a moment and said, "I think I need to go to Yanmen Pass."
If it is true as the letter says.
This is certainly a good thing for the Tang Dynasty.
It is even a good thing for a powerful group like Changsun Wuji.
Because this means that even if the Tang Dynasty was destroyed.
They will have enough power and wealth in the future.
Although probably not as good as before.
But it won’t end up like the Sui and Tang dynasties? !
How many of the aristocratic families from the Sui and Tang dynasties are still around?!
The four major clans.
The Yuwen clan, the Song clan, the Li clan, and the Dugu clan.
Except for the Li family who reached the highest level.
Many other clans no longer exist.
What replaced them were the so-called Five Surnames and Seven Aristocrats.
It's just that these five surnames and seven families only have a deep foundation now.
How could they have the chance to get their hands on the wealth and power that is visible? !
There were no first-rank officials in the imperial court of the Tang Dynasty who were from the five surnames and seven families.
There are only a few people of the second and third ranks.
That's just the face given by the platform.
But according to the attitude Zhu Houzhao had shown before.
That is truly powerful enough.
Especially after the Ming Dynasty unified the nine provinces.
The channels for promotion and the power you hold will also increase significantly!
But this statement could only be hidden in Changsun Wuji's heart.
Because this is not a good thing for an emperor like Li Shimin.
Li Shimin glanced at Zhangsun Wuji and said, "We have to go to Yanmen Pass."
"No matter whether this battle is won or lost."
"If the Tang Dynasty does not get involved."
"In the future, it will inevitably become a vassal of another country."
"But what I'm asking is not this, but your opinion as a powerful person!"
"This is also the opinion of people like Li Bai, Wang Wei, and Yuchi Gong!"
It was impossible to conceal Zhu Houzhao's actions.
Once these people know.
What would they think? !
Just like the secret in Changsun Wuji's heart before.
Will these people really die for the Tang Dynasty?!
Even though fighting in battle and seeking wealth is what these people should do.
That’s what they pursue too.
But what if the enemy's strength is enough to make people despair? !
Li Shimin came to his own by rebelling step by step.
He knew the mentality of these people.
In Li Shimin's view, Zhu Houzhao's move is likely to lead to complete unrest among the people.
Even if the war situation at Yanmen Pass or on the Qin side was slightly hindered.
The situation in the world will be completely different in the future.
The Ming Dynasty's momentum was truly unstoppable.
Zhang Sun Wuji smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, don't you know it well?"
"not to mention...."
He paused for a moment and then said frankly: "This is how people in this world feel."
"This is how the world is structured!"
"The reason why all the countries united is because the Ming Dynasty must be suppressed!"
"Even if the Ming Dynasty doesn't show such strength this time."
"As long as we can stop the offensive of the other countries, the world situation will change."
"Now it's only Zhu Houzhao's kindness that has made this matter more complicated."
"But what's the point?!"
After all.
It’s true that Changsun Wuji had some thoughts on this.
But Li Shimin was the emperor for a long time.
After seeing this idea, he felt complicated.
Immediately, he began to explore or associate something with the emperor's thoughts.
But all this is actually meaningless.
No one in this world is absolutely loyal to anyone else.
It's more about considering the pros and cons.
Li Shimin was in a trance again: "I..."
This is already the second time!
I was at a loss again for the second time!
It can only be said that Li Shimin was faced with Zhu Houzhao's unreasonable behavior.
He has completely lost his balance.
My mentality even became a little inexplicable.
In fact, it’s not just Li Shimin.
Isn't it that Ying Zheng doesn't have it? !
Bai Qi divides his troops!
This is!
The previous behavior that was almost like a fit of anger was also the same.
These emperors throughout the ages have encountered terrifying opponents in the past.
But no one ever made them despair.
All this was because Zhu Houzhao's rise was too rapid.
It was so fast that they seemed to see their past selves.
That's how quickly they rose and expanded their power.
And then step by step reach the peak!!!
......
Li Shimin didn't say anything more in the end.
Instead, he ordered preparations for the expedition to Yanmen Pass.
But he hadn't waited for the order to be issued.
He also learned the news from the Great Qin from the Heavenly Master Sun En.
The news once again made Li Shimin fall into a state of shock.
Chang Sun Wuji was dumbfounded at one side: "Another celestial being?!"
"Zhu Houzhao has the ability to summon masters from all the heavens and worlds?!"
"A secret method based on national destiny?"
"We can weaken Zhu Houzhao just by weakening the country's fortune?!"
Ying Zheng did not hide any information.
He even told Zhang Yi about his guess.
Because this kind of news cannot be concealed.
And there is another benefit after speaking out.
That is to boost the morale of all countries!
This is not a joke.
After a brief moment of astonishment, Li Shimin felt a mixture of surprise and joy.
What shocked him was naturally Zhu Houzhao's trump card.
But what makes me happy is this trump card.
He, Li Shimin, can also take it away!
Can also be cracked!
In fact, what made Li Shimin most panicked before was not those difficulties.
It is more of a fear and anxiety about the unknown.
The Sui Dynasty was strong enough in the past!
But Li Shimin showed no fear when he rebelled.
Because he knew that the Sui Dynasty was extremely powerful.
But it also has enough weaknesses.
He was confident that he could overthrow the Sui Dynasty and replace it.
But it happened when facing Zhu Houzhao.
They could only watch Zhu Houzhao continue to throw out his cards.
How can this not make people despair.
But this time it was completely different.
Li Shimin's eyes sparkled: "Tell this news to Sun En, Xie Di and others."
He also needs to inspire the fighting spirit of his subordinates.
The Evil Emperor and the Heavenly Master came here to explore Zhu Houzhao's background.
Now there is such news.
They will go crazy about it.
By then, don’t even think about reaching the peak of heavenly being.
It is above the gods.
They dare to take the risk!
Li Shimin once again rekindled his fighting spirit: "I will definitely be able to replace him!"
He is also extremely interested in the secret method of national destiny!
If you possess this secret method.
The Tang Dynasty may be able to unify the nine provinces!
