Chapter 175: Li Shimin's decision

"Master! You..." Empress Changsun heard the movement and hurriedly hugged Xiao Yizi in to see him. When she saw Li Shimin sitting on the ground in sweat, she was frightened for a moment.

"I'm fine! I'll be scared by my father's letters for a while." Li Shimin stood up, picked up the letter papers on the ground one by one, arranged them in sequence and then closed them in close proximity.

Empress Changsun looked at Li Shimin's thoughtful look and stood quietly aside without saying a word.

Recovering from contemplation, Li Shimin sighed and said, "The Father taught me the last lesson in his letter. He taught me how to avoid the history of the tragedy of the Xuanwu Gate's human relationship will be repeated in the next generation! He said that the emperor's love for children is the greatest harm to everyone. It should be like Yuan'er who set up his own family, and separated early while his brotherly relationship is still there. I think it is true that what the Father said is right. It is precisely because he treats us brothers equally that the tragedy happened."

Empress Changsun was a little shocked. This was Li Shimin's taboo and could not even mention it. Unexpectedly, he proposed it himself.

Li Shimin smiled slightly: "I can't figure it out all my father's eyes, what can I do? This kind of thing is known to everyone in the world. Instead of hiding it, it is better to talk about it honestly and find a solution. Only in this way can we avoid the recurrence of the old things. Otherwise, it is no different from Duke Huan of Cai who is afraid of medical treatment."

Queen Changsun nodded and said with relief: "I agree with what the Father and the Lord said."

"Then tell me honestly, have I been overly accused of Qingque? "When I saw Empress Changsun's face change drastically, Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "The children are still young now and can be corrected. I have no other intentions, I just want to get a real answer! You know, no one will tell me the truth when it comes to such a thing."

Queen Changsun bit her lip and said for a long time: "Among all the sects, the emperor favors Qian'er, Qingque, Ke'er, and Zhinu the most, but I think the emperor favors Qingque, especially Qian'er, Ke'er, and Zhinu, several times the total."

Speaking of this, Empress Changsun mustered up the courage and said, "I have always felt that the emperor was too fond of Qingque. Sooner or later, Qingque will mistakenly think that the emperor wanted to pass the position of prince to him. The only thing the emperor was concerned about was the ancient saying of establishing the eldest son or not. Therefore, he would mistakenly believe that as long as he did not solve the obstacle of Qian'er, he could take the position of prince. In the end, his brother would compete for his brother's taboo. Thus he embarked on a road where he could not even turn back."

"In the end, Qian'er is the eldest brother, Qingque is the King of Qin... We can still control it in the world. Once we are gone, the incident at Xuanwu Gate will repeat... Then, generation after generation, the "iron law" of fighting for the throne by force will continue... until the mountains and rivers break and all the casualties..." Li Shimin looked at Empress Changsun, who was pale-faced, and said this sentence calmly.

"Master, yes, it's enough for one time... absolutely, it's absolutely not like this!" Empress Changsun's body was cold and her delicate body was trembling.

Li Shimin held his beloved wife's waist and smiled bitterly: "I have to pay back the debts of my children... As parents, there is no time to live in peace. I finally realized the mood of my father when he saw our brothers fighting." He touched the tender little face of Little Shizi and sighed: "It's better for a daughter."

Empress Changsun was in a mess and had no mood to play with Li Shimin. She said angrily: "Master, what should I do now? I'm so anxious."

Li Shimin sighed, "Apart from godson, all sons are treated equally. The rewards are the same as fiefs, and the military affairs of all places are the same, so as to prevent someone from being arrogant with favor! The smarter the person is, the more spoiled. Since ancient times, many kind mothers defeated their sons, and the same is true for a kind father. The playboys in the capital are so arbitrary."

Thanks to Li Shimin's great rewards from all over the world and countless officials in the world, the consequence was that Chang'an had a bunch of playboys and made trouble all day long, causing chaos.

Empress Changsun agreed: "There are many outstanding people among these playboys, and it has become like this because of their parents' indulgence and arrogance."

“It’s much better now!”

"Yeah!" Empress Changsun knew that Li Shimin had made a decision on his son's legitimate side, and her heart was put into practice. She chuckled and said, "This Yuan'er really has an idea, but she actually thought of such a trick."

Li Shimin smiled and said, "This is to use evil to control evil and use poison to fight poison."

Once, the playboys fought on a large scale, and Li Shimin was very upset. Chai Lingwu offered a good idea at that time, which was to throw the playboys who were causing trouble into the martial arts academy for special training for three months. These powerful and noble children had never suffered hardships since childhood, and were all scolded to death. After they came out, they were so obedient.

Seeing this effective, Li Shimin used this method as a rule for controlling pests, and then set the training time according to the severity of the crime. The highest crime was trained for three years and the lowest was one month!

As soon as this proposal was released, all the civil and military officials of the court agreed unanimously. After all, no one wanted his son to do nothing and make trouble in the market. If he got better, it would be of great benefit to the family and the children themselves.

The smoky and chaotic Chang'an City was very good for a while. Seeing that this method was effective, Li Shimin decisively promoted it to the entire Tang Dynasty. Once he committed an incident, he would get Zhechong Prefectures from all over the country to participate in special training, and the death penalty was of course an exception. In this way, the Tang Dynasty version of the teenage labor camp was born out of nowhere, and the social atmosphere was very good.

The next morning, Li Shimin made regulations on the children of the royal family: First, when the prince was appointed as the governor, the military of the five prefectures was the upper limit, and the minimum was the control of one state; Second, the civil servants could only serve as the governor of one state; Third, the fifteenth fifteen-year-old princess was the royal family and was no longer given to the prince, and all those who had been given were recovered; Five, the prince was at the age of fifteen and had to go out to take vassals and were not allowed to stay in the capital for any reason. If the reasons such as illness were not valid, the prince was demoted to the prince, the prince was demoted to the prince, and the prince was demoted to the prince, and the prince was demoted to the prince... In addition, there were also strict restrictions on land, houses, property... rewards. As for the treatment of officials who entered the court, it was implemented according to the rules of the Ministry of Personnel.

Li Shimin's resolution was undoubtedly a bombshell, which triggered heated discussions throughout North Korea.

When the world was peaceful, the royal family was undoubtedly the biggest threat to the stability of the imperial power. After this restriction, the prince gained little power from the royal family's identity, which reduced his innate resources to a very low level, thus eliminating a series of problems such as rebellion and independence caused by the excessive expansion of power and money.

If you want to get more, then speak with your ability.

All the civil and military ministers in the court praised Li Shimin for his wiseness and praise him as a wise monarch and holy lord.
