My players are all actors

Chapter 313
Li Hongyun was silent for a moment, and said: "You mean...the relevant records of Liang Gaozu?"

Chu Ge nodded: "That's right."

Although Li Hongyun doesn't know this period of history as well as Chu Ge, but since he has already pointed it out to this point, it is easy for him to understand it.

The current historical data about the Xuanwumen Change are generally credible.

Especially when it comes to the various backgrounds of the Xuanwu Gate Change, such as what the prince and King Qi had done before, and the actions of the generals recovered by the King of Qin during the Xuanwu Gate Change, these are relatively reliable.

Because too many people know about this kind of thing, even if they want to change it, they can't change it.

But it does not mean that the change of Xuanwu Gate is exactly the same as what is recorded in the historical materials. After all, although the change of Xuanwu Gate is a big deal, not many people are affected, and the only person who really participated in the whole incident is King Qin Bring those hundreds of people.

The interests of these people are highly bound together, so some things, even if King Qin does not ask, they may still beautify them.

For example, when Emperor Taizong of Liang had just read the records about the Xuanwumen Change in the "Records of Emperor Gaozu and Emperor Taizong", he asked to "cut off the floating words and write the facts directly".

That is to say, the history editors at that time also subconsciously modified the Xuanwumen Change, but Liang Taizong thought that there was nothing to cover up, and it was enough to record it truthfully.

Therefore, if there is indeed a part of the records about the Xuanwumen Change in the history books that is extremely unlikely to be recorded truthfully, which part should it be?
Obviously, it is about Liang Gaozu.

It is impossible to verify whether these contents are true or not.Because of the truth at that time, I am afraid that historians dare not write it, and Liang Taizong is not easy to mention it. Those who have witnessed the whole Liang Dynasty will keep such things secret.

After all, in ancient society, loyalty and filial piety were the most important of all virtues, and when one's father was the emperor, loyalty and filial piety were united, even if the father's talents and morals were not as good as his own, he could not talk nonsense.

Li Hongyun made some simple preparations, and entered the game world of "Dark Sand" again at night to start the trial.

……

The fog in front of him dissipated, and Li Hongyun once again overlooked the entire Chang'an City from the perspective of God.

A huge picture scroll, with the Xuanwu Gate in the north of the imperial city as the center, unfolds slowly,

Countless little people like ants travel to and fro in Chang'an City, spending days and nights.

Although it has not yet entered the heyday of the Liang Dynasty, many details of urban life have begun to take shape.

With the ringing of dawn drums and temple bells every morning, residents in Chang'an City began to get up one after another and leave the various squares and markets, and various food stalls on the streets also began to open.

Merchants in the East and West Markets began to stock up for the opening of the market in the afternoon.

Not only that, but many people left Chang'an City and traveled to various places. For example, many people went east from Chang'an City and went to Luoyang after going through the dangerous pass along the way.

On such a picture scroll, a page full of historical records appeared in Li Hongyun's vision.

This book page is full of dense handwriting, and some paragraphs and sentences have been specially marked, which seem to be operable options.

It seems that these specific content can be modified directly.

What was originally a historical material in classical Chinese has become a vernacular that Li Hongyun can understand in the next second, and those operable paragraphs and sentences are still in one-to-one correspondence.

"...the prince and Liang Gaozu set up troops in Jinyang. They were benevolent, generous, and brave. His younger brother, King Qi, worshiped him more and became a close comrade-in-arms and partner of the prince.

"Father and son worked together. The prince assisted the ancestors in governing the country, purge the officials, transport the supplies, and win a thousand miles.

"During the reign of Wude, the Turks repeatedly invaded. The prince sent the king of Qi to attack him, and reprimanded Jieli Khan with the letter of state. Because of this, Jieli Khan was very guilty and no longer invaded the border of the Liang Dynasty. Gaozu and the prince also separated because of this. He is honored as 'Heaven Khan' and 'Saint Khan', and is known as 'The Rule of Wude' in history.

"The Prince's second younger brother, the Prince of Qin, is ignorant and idle. He loves hunting all day long. He often shoots and hunts people in the city of Chang'an for fun. Gao Zu is angry and blames him. The Prince is kind and pleads for mercy.

"King Qi has repeatedly advised Gaozu and the prince to strictly discipline the king of Qin. The prince is benevolent and filial. Resentment, secretly feeding the dead, harboring evil intentions.

"In the ninth year of Wude, Gaozu was over sixty years old. Seeing that the prince was so virtuous, he planned to pass it on to the prince and take care of himself for the rest of his life. But when the king of Qin learned that the prince was about to enter the court and ascend the throne, he took the risk and let the shady dead man Wei Chi Jingde and others bribed the guards of Xuanwu Gate, ambushed in Xuanwu Gate in advance, and killed the prince and King Qi together.

"Break into the palace again, imprison Gao Zu, and force Gao Zu to pass on to himself.

"When Jieli Khan heard that the prince had been killed, he deeply felt that he had owed the prince's grace, so he raised his troops and marched south to the Weishui River.

"The king of Qin usurped the throne, the hearts of the people were scattered, and the soldiers in Chang'an had no fighting spirit. They had no choice but to beg for mercy from Jieli Khan in the Weishui River, ceded the land of Hetao to the Turks for peace, and spent all their treasuries and seized the wealth of the people in Chang'an. The Turks gave it to them. The people left after more than a month of plundering around Chang'an, known as the "Alliance of Weishui" in history.

"King Qin also knew that he killed his brother and usurped the throne, and he would be stigmatized for thousands of years in the future, so he summoned literati to change the history. He also rewarded the ministers who had contributed to his usurpation, and gave them military merits that did not exist, called 'Ling Yan' Pavilion 24 Heroes'.

"Under the efforts of a group of historians, the achievements of the 'Government of Martial Virtue' were all attributed to King Qin, and it was tampered with as the 'Government of Zhenguan', which is no longer known to future generations."

This "historical record" made Li Hongyun dumbfounded.

Does this work too?
I have to say that almost every paragraph of this long list of content is a slot, and after reading all of them, I don’t know where to start.

If you look carefully, you will find that this should be the master of that kind of historical conspiracy theory. Although it can be said that it is full of loopholes, it is indeed full of gimmicks and subversion.

There's a lot in this, and even people who don't know much about history can see glaring problems.

All it takes is a little basic logical thinking.

For example, the King of Qin was ignorant, idle, sensual and sensual all day long, and loved hunting. He often shot and hunted people in Chang'an City for pleasure.

This is obviously impossible.

If he was such an incompetent and unpopular trash, not to mention his illustrious military achievements recorded in historical materials, he would never even be able to usurp the throne.

Because things like "dead soldiers" don't mean that you can raise them if you want.

Will the dead man denounce you?Will the dead be found?Why wouldn't someone who can be bought by you betray you for more money?

Rebellion is also a technical activity that requires a high degree of organization.If you have no ability, your subordinates will be infiltrated and instigated, and the entire Qin Palace will be leaked from all sides, and you will even rebel with a hammer.

Another example is changing history.

If these records are true, then King Qin's reputation among the people will definitely not be that of a holy king.

If he can also change the folk memory, then he is not called changing the history, it is called directly erasing the memories of all the people in the world with the supreme supernatural power.

If you have this kind of ability, don't be a khan for a while, wouldn't it be better to have an unlimited monthly reading?
These are all "false at a glance" content, which is easy to distinguish.

Obviously, this page of historical materials is an appetizer.

There are some mistakes that are easy to distinguish. As long as the players understand the relevant historical materials, pass through the previous links such as the Battle of Hulao Pass and the Weishui Alliance with their own strength, and have a little speculative spirit, right? Too likely to be bluffed.

But is it really not difficult at all to say this one?

Not necessarily.

Precisely because there are so many outrageous mistakes in it, it conceals some of the less outrageous mistakes.

For example, the prince assisted Gao Zu in governing the country, purge officials, transfer supplies, and win a decisive victory for thousands of miles.

Another example is how the Weishui alliance was reached.

Up to now, many people think that the crown prince is also a wise prince no less than King Qin. Wealth, and it is even possible to search for people's wealth...

It can be seen that these hidden points are also deceptive.

Especially when these two points are combined, it is even more confusing.

For example, there are still many people who believe that the crown prince is an excellent prince who is as wise and benevolent as the king of Qin. However, after the change of Xuanwumen, the king of Qin must discredit him in historical records in order to promote him in order to stabilize his rule. the legitimacy of their own rule.

In this way, the image of the prince constituted a three-dimensional defense.

Speaking of the prince's lack of military merits, it is said that the prince has the responsibility of supervising the country and cannot lead troops to fight.

But if it is said that the internal politics and the guarantee of food and grass are the prince's credit, then there are two new questions: first, if these credits are all the prince's, what about Liang Gaozu?Second, the prince does not have any particularly excellent historical records in this regard, but there are a lot of black materials.

At this time, some people will say that this is because the historical materials have been changed and the prince's achievements have been covered up.

Then, there is a third question: If the prince is really so benevolent and respected by both inside and outside, then why did the entire Liang dynasty seem to accept this fact so quickly after the prince died?

None of the officials in the court was dismissed or martyred because of the memory of the prince, and no officials from other places rebelled in the name of "King Qin" because of the memory of the prince.

The Xuanwumen Incident was just a small-scale coup, and such a small-scale coup would quickly turn into a huge chaos if the person who won the throne had no prestige.

Such examples are common in all dynasties.

But after the change of Xuanwu Gate, nothing seemed to have happened. No one jumped out to complain for the prince and King Qi, and no one jumped out to complain for Liang Gaozu. Accepted King Qin as the new emperor.

And they seem to be quite happy.

And this can also prove from another angle that the so-called merits of the prince are not enough in front of King Qin.

……

After a brief smoothing, Li Hongyun began to click on these options to modify.

Since there were many mistakes that could be seen at a glance, Li Hongyun pointed out almost word for word.

And after clicking on these sentences, they will change into a word.

For example, the sentence "The prince and Liang Gaozu set up troops in Jinyang, benevolent, generous, brave and unparalleled".

After one click, it will change to "benevolence, generosity, foresight and foresight", another click, it will change to "spiritual determination, good devotion", and another click, it will become "planning, unpredictable, and unpredictable".

Almost every sentence has many different expressions.

These expressions range from a few to more than a dozen, basically going from one extreme to the other, taking every change in the middle as an option.

For example, at the beginning, it was described that the prince was a man of benevolence, righteousness, generosity, wisdom and courage. With Li Hongyun's first click, the item "brave and unparalleled" disappeared, but the item of foresight and foresight was still retained.

If it continues to be changed, these commendatory words will gradually become derogatory ones, portraying the prince as a man who has no heart and no ability, and even robs women of wealth and goods, and messes with Gaozu's concubine.

Among so many descriptions, Li Hongyun has to choose the one he thinks is the most suitable.

So after some operations, Li Hongyun finally changed this content to his ideal state according to his basic understanding of history.

"...The crown prince and Liang Gaozu set up troops in Jinyang, respecting the calm and moderate talents. His younger brother, the king of Qi, likes hunting and has a lot of bad deeds.

"Gaozu raised an army, and the prince assisted Gaozu in governing the country as an assistant; King Qi was placed in the army of King Qin by Gaozu, and made meritorious service. King Qin fought in the south and north, and took the lead. Within a few years, he defeated the heroes one after another, unified the world, and established the Liang Dynasty. .

"During the reign of Wude, the Turks repeatedly invaded, and King Qin repeatedly led troops to the Turks to quell the border troubles. The prince presided over the cutting of Hetao and agreed with Gao Zu's proposal to move the capital.

"The king of Qin is wise and powerful, and is relied on by all parties. Gao Zu and his concubine often had conflicts with the king of Qin because of rewards, falsely accused the king of Qin to Gao Zu, and praised the benevolence of the prince.

"The Crown Prince conspired with the King of Qi to cut off King Qin's wings. The King of Qin was aware of it, and under the impetus of many officials in the Tiance Mansion, he began to plan.

"In the ninth year of Wude, although Gao Zu was over [-] years old, he had no plans to take the throne. The crown prince and King Qin attacked each other, and Gao Zu asked them to enter the palace tomorrow to confront each other. King Qin ambush at the Xuanwu Gate first, beheading the prince and King Qi Most of the Forbidden Army in the palace are the old troops of the King of Qin, and they have a lot of support for the King of Qin.

"The King of Qin ordered Yuchi Jingde to enter the palace, and forced Gaozu to pass on to him.

"Jieli Khan heard about the change of Xuanwu Gate, and thought that the Liang Dynasty was empty and there was an opportunity to take advantage of it, so he raised his troops and went south.

"The King of Qin ordered Yuchi Jingde to attack his vanguard and detain his envoys, and ordered the elite of the Xuanjia Army to march in Weishui to demonstrate and force Jieli Khan to retreat. This is known as the 'Weishui Alliance' in history.

"The king of Qin believed that 'you can know the ups and downs by using history as a mirror', so he summoned a group of officials to revise the history. He also asked the officials to 'cut off the floating words and write down the facts' about the change of Xuanwumen. He will also follow many civil servants who fought in the world with him The portrait of the brave general hangs in Lingyan Pavilion, which is called "Lingyan Pavilion 24 Heroes".

"Under the joint efforts of the monarch and his ministers, he relieved natural disasters, conquered the Turks, and came to court from all directions. Therefore, Emperor Liang Taizong was named 'Tian Khan' and opened the prosperous Liang Dynasty. It is known as the 'Regulation of Zhenguan' in history."

After browsing through it, he didn't find any major problems, so Li Hongyun clicked to confirm.

With a "crash", the page of this book was turned.

Then, Li Hongyun's field of vision quickly zoomed in and came to the imperial palace in Chang'an.

He recognized the more than 50-year-old Liang Gaozu in a yellow dragon robe at a glance.

According to the theory of five virtues, the Liang Dynasty represented Tude, so Liang Gaozu made the dragon robe yellow, and raised the yellow to the exclusive level of the emperor, and it is strictly forbidden to be used by the people.

And beside Liang Gaozu, a concubine with outstanding appearance is serving seriously.

"Your Majesty, I heard that the King of Qin is going to conquer Luoyang in a few days. There must be countless jewels and goods in the treasury of Luoyang City. I wonder if Your Majesty can reward some of his concubines?"
