Datang: My Pokémon was discovered by Li Shimin
Chapter 392
Qin Shihuang unified the six kingdoms with iron-blooded means, unified the wheel gauge and the writing system, and laid the foundation for the unification of China. Although he was criticized by later generations for his tyranny, his achievements are indelible.
Zhu Yuanzhang rose from a commoner, expelled the Tartars, restored China, and established the Ming Dynasty. His means were ruthless, but he also laid the foundation for the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty.
However, Li Shimin was different from them. He cared about his reputation and even did not hesitate to make such moves as modifying history books.
But what's the use of this?
All people in later generations are wise, not stupid.
As the long river of time slowly flows, the things that Li Shimin had done will eventually be dug out bit by bit.
Li Shimin may have always believed that the future will always be the Li family's kingdom, and future generations will never open history books to accuse their ancestors of right and wrong.
The idea is beautiful, but the reality is extremely cruel.
Almost no dynasty can cross the dynastic cycle of three hundred years, and the Tang Dynasty is no exception. It was eventually replaced by the Song Dynasty.
After the establishment of the Song Dynasty, people in later generations would not care about Li Shimin's feelings and comment on him as they wished.
True reputation is never obtained by modifying history books, but by relying on one's own virtues and achievements.
"Your Majesty, do you still care how many generations the Tang Dynasty can last?" Li Fan asked curiously.
"The Imperial Master is joking. If you really say you don't care, it's really hypocritical." Li Shimin said slowly, with a hint of helplessness on his face.
"Isn't the emperor the representative of hypocrisy? Do you expect you to be open-hearted to someone?" Li Fan rolled his eyes.
"..." Li Shimin was choked. He opened his mouth and wanted to say loudly that I was really open-hearted to the Imperial Master!
But after hesitating for a while, he sighed helplessly and had to admit that there was nothing wrong with what Li Fan said.
It is indeed difficult to fully trust others, which is indeed hypocritical.
Let alone Li Shimin's disbelief in his old brothers.
But being on the throne, he really couldn't believe it.
Everyone is an independent individual. They were once brothers who lived and died together, and brothers as close as brothers.
Just like Liu Bang and Han Xin in the early Han Dynasty, they were as close as brothers when they fought for the world together, but after the world was stable, Han Xin ended up in a tragic end.
But what about now? How many thoughts are hidden in their hearts, and who can really know?
In fact, Li Shimin really envied the ability of the national teacher. If he had the ability of the national teacher, he would know what others were thinking.
He could also be particularly open-minded to everyone and no longer worry day and night.
Let's say that when Changsun Wuji persuaded him to launch the Xuanwu Gate Incident, he was really willing to follow him to the end, and at most everyone would die together.
However, as time goes by, what choice will Changsun Wuji make for the glory and interests of the Changsun family?
Li Shimin was unsure.
Even his wife, who had been with him through thick and thin, he dared not tell too many of his worries.
Just like Emperor Wu of Han and Empress Wei, they were once very affectionate, but in the struggle for power, their feelings became complicated and fragile.
Li Shimin knew very well that the way of an emperor was always a lonely road.
Although he knew that Empress Changsun had deep feelings for him and her eyes were full of him, what about her brother Changsun Wuji?
If one day, Changsun Wuji offended his bottom line, he would have to deal with him.
At that time, how would the gentle and virtuous Guanyin Bi choose?
Thinking of this, Li Shimin felt very upset. To be honest, he was actually very tired.
As an emperor, holding supreme power in his hands, he was destined to face such a complex and difficult situation.
But now the situation is different, and he no longer needs to worry as much as before.
It can be said that if Li Fan wants to replace him, he can't stop it at all.
As for Li Fan, he can open his heart without reservation.
The most important thing is that Li Fan does not belong to any faction, nor will he deliberately make friends with anyone!
Of course, Li Fan's support for him is not unconditional.
These days, Li Shimin has been thinking about it again and again, and he thinks very clearly that as long as he has always been a good emperor, caring about the world, and working hard to govern, Li Fan will always support him!
Although he has never said it explicitly, he can feel that this is what the national teacher requires!
Li Fan may not care about the throne, let alone who sits on it.
But he cares about the welfare of the people of the world.
For Li Shimin, the Li family's country is certainly important.
But if the monarchs of the future generations are incompetent and start to cause chaos in the world in the end, it is better to let Li Fan destroy them directly to protect the reputation of his Li family!
Thinking of this, Li Shimin suddenly felt that he was doing this.Absolutely correct!
It is not a bad thing to have a sword hanging over the emperor's head.
In fact, Li Shimin himself was not sure whether he would be stupid in his later years.
Let's look at the long river of history. Emperor Wu of Han was a man of great talent and strategy when he was young. He fought against the Huns and expanded the territory, but in his later years he was superstitious about witchcraft, which led to fratricide between father and son and social unrest;
Qin Shihuang unified the six kingdoms, how majestic, but in his later years he pursued immortality, wasted money and labor, and made the court pay a heavy price, accelerating the demise of the Qin Dynasty.
Li Shimin did not dare to guarantee whether he would become arbitrary and self-willed when he was old.
And now, Li Fan is the best constraint.
He is always monitoring himself. If he becomes abnormal, someone will wake him up.
"National Master, I suddenly realized that having you here really has a great effect on Li Tang." Li Shimin said very seriously, with emotion in his eyes.
"Why?" Li Fan didn't understand. Of course, he didn't know what Li Shimin was thinking.
But Li Shimin guessed correctly. If the emperor of the Li family messed up in the future, he would definitely not sit idly by.
After all, they are descendants of the Chinese nation. From the bottom of their hearts, they still hope that the people of the world can live a better life.
This is not a saintly behavior, but a responsibility that a descendant of the Chinese nation should shoulder!
Li Fan came to the future, and he didn't think he could resist the temptation.
In addition, he himself was a salted fish. Now with his status, what can't he get?
"Because you are here, you will be the most terrible sword on the emperor's head."
"In the past, I gave Yuchi Gong a whip."
"But I know very well that this is just a show and has no effect."
This whip was just a reward from Li Shimin himself, just to make his reputation better.
"Forget it, I won't say it anymore. I'm going back!"
It was the first time that Li Shimin talked so much with Li Fan from the heart.
After simply slurping up the oil-splashed noodles, he was ready to leave.
Not to mention that the taste was really good, he felt a little addicted.
Seeing Li Shimin hesitate to speak, Li Fan quickly waved his hand: "Stop! I know what you want to say."
"You want chili peppers, I'll pack them and send them to you later."
Based on Li Fan's understanding of Li Shimin, he must want to buy something again!
"Okay!" Li Shimin gave a look that said you are very knowledgeable and left directly.
