Wonderful office battle. In the seventeenth year of Zhenguan (643), Prince Li Chenggan was deposed for rebellion. At this time, Li Shimin's second son, Lee Tae, and his grandson won the favor of Li Shimin because of their cleverness and ability, and Li Shimin intended to make Lee Tae a prince. However, Lee Tae was carried away by the huge advantage and was too high-profile. In addition, Li Zhi's tragedy and Wuji's support for Li Zhi finally made Li a prince instead of.
After Li Chenggan was deposed, he said to Li Shimin, "Since I am a prince, what can I ask for? However, for Thailand, he and his courtiers made special efforts to find a way to protect themselves. People who don't show off teach ministers to do bad things. If you take Thailand as the prince today, it is called lowering its limit. " Li Chenggan's words aroused Li Shimin's vigilance. And Li Zhi also put his younger brother Li Tai together at the critical moment, so that Li Shimin completely dismissed the idea of making Lee Tae a prince. Hanwang Li Yuanchang participated in the rebellion in Li Chenggan, and Li Zhi and Li Yuanchang had a good relationship, so Lee Tae threatened Li Zhi, hoping to force Li Zhi to withdraw from the competition for the crown prince. Li Zhi was terrified and lived in fear. Li Shimin found his face was wrong and asked him why. Li Zhi told him the truth. Li Shimin gave up Lee Tae completely. With the support of Wuji, he decided to make Li a prince.
Historical records seem unremarkable. Lee Tae was aggressive, and Li Zhi wanted nothing, but he was finally made a prince. But getting rid of the fog on the surface is actually not simple. On the matter of establishing the Prince, Sun Chang stood firmly on Li Zhi's side, which became the key to Li Zhi's final victory. In the ancient battle for the throne, if you stand on the wrong side, the consequences will be very serious. A distant example is that Hu Hai forced Montaigne, who didn't support himself, to death after taking power. Almost like Yang Di Yang Guang, he was opposed by Emperor Wen's etiquette Gao Jiong, and took the opportunity to kill Gao Jiong after Yang Di became king.
As an outstanding politician, Sun Chang Wuji could not support Li Zhi unconditionally. He will certainly secretly get on well with Li Zhi first, and forget each other when he gets rich. This is why when Li Shimin wanted to make Lee Tae a prince, he was strongly opposed by Sun Chang Wuji. Li Zhixiang Li Shimin complained that Lee Tae threatened himself. This kind of thing is only known to both parties, and there is no way to prove it. It is hard to say whether Li Zhi was instructed by experts and deliberately planted Lee Tae, and the expert behind Li Zhi is probably Sun Chang Wuji.
He sent the famous soldier Li Ji to lead the army to destroy Korea. South Korea's national strength was so strong that even Emperor Taizong's personal expedition failed. By the time of Li Zhi, the Tang Dynasty finally wiped out Korea completely. In addition to destroying North Korea, a century-old enemy, Li Zhi also sent general Su to destroy West Turkestan. The territory of the Tang Dynasty reached its peak during the Li Zhi period. When Li Zhi was in power, the land area of the Tang Dynasty exceeded 6,543.8+0.2 million square kilometers.
Li Zhi has promoted a large number of outstanding talents. During his reign, Lu Chengqing, Xu, Du, Xue, Wei and Wei were the famous civil servants, and the military commanders were Su, Xue, Pei Xingjian, Gao Kan, Cheng Wuting and Hei Chi Changzhi. Li Zhi is an emperor who links the past with the future. He laid a solid foundation for Li Longji to create a prosperous new century. This emperor is not simple!
