Chapter 267 Leaving Beijing

Li Yan was definitely a person like Zhang Liang of the Western Han Dynasty and Liu Bowen in the early Ming Dynasty. Unfortunately, Li Zicheng he met was at best a thief with no prospects. Li Zicheng was just a short-sighted and unsighted character from beginning to end, and he had no great ambitions. He did not have the ability to know people like Liu Bang, the Emperor Gaozu of Han, and did not have the ambition to unify the world by Zhu Yuanzhang, the Emperor Taizu of Ming Dynasty.

Li Zicheng never thought of becoming an emperor at all. Later, he even fought at the city of Beijing. He never thought of entering the palace to replace him. His purpose was very simple, he would just take it and leave.

However, at this time, the Ming army was already as defeated as sand and took the initiative to open the city gate to welcome him. How could Li Zicheng let go of such a free bargain? Even occupied Beijing City, Li Zicheng did not change his nature. He donated silver and helped to squeeze Beijing City out, and then induced troops to rob the silver. If he listened to Li Yan's advice, he would not end up in the end.

Therefore, talents like Li Yan must not fall into the hands of Li Zicheng and others. Li Yan is the kind of talent with ambition to support the world. He was extremely disappointed with the Ming system, so he placed his lifelong ambitions on Li Zicheng. However, what Li Zicheng brought to Li Yan in the end was also disappointed.

Even in the end, Li Zicheng knew that Li Yan was wronged, but he still killed this talent. From this point of view, it can be seen that Li Zicheng could not make the difference. At best, Li Zicheng was a gangster butcher, and his rebellion was a disaster to the country and the people.

If Li Zicheng always adopted Li Yan's suggestion: respect the virtuous and respect the men, eliminate violent mercy and polite people, and practice benevolence and righteousness (the fake actions here mean fake hands), prohibit soldiers from killing others, and win people's hearts for great things. Then later, Li Zicheng's Dashun regime would probably become a shining pearl in Chinese history. We are no longer controlled by the Qing Dynasty for more than 200 years, but have been changed to the Dashun people.

There are rumors among the people: "The army of the King of Breaking is loyal and righteous, and they will not kill or plunder" nursery rhymes, "The door is opened to welcome the King of Breaking, and the King of Breaking does not pay food when he comes", "The door is opened early to worship the King of Breaking, and everyone is happy to discipline." These are all from Li Yan's hands, and it is Li Yan's support that made Li Zicheng grow rapidly.

Unfortunately, Li Zicheng, who later occupied Beijing City, completely lost himself in the face of luxury and wealth. He had completely thrown Li Yan's advice behind him, which has to be said to be a tragedy of history.

But Luo Yangxing didn't know at this time. He didn't quite understand why the crown prince asked him to find a strange person. Moreover, how the crown prince knew that there was such a man named Li Yan, but he didn't know.

But the Crown Prince said it seriously, and Luo Yangxing dared not neglect it: "Don't worry, your highness, let's do it now. But your highness, forgive me for saying too much. If so, if Li Yan refuses to submit, or if he defects to the thief in advance, what should we do?"

Zhu Cilang thought for a while: "Slay the weeds and roots, and since it cannot be used by me, I will definitely kill you!"

Li Yan is a rare talent, but if this person is determined to fight against the court, then Zhu Cilang would rather kill such a talent that is rare than leave it to the enemy. If he were Cao Cao, he would not let Guan Yu return to Liu Bei alive.

Luo Yangxing bowed: "I understand."
