Chapter 138 The differences between the four princes

"Those princes who embarked on the road of rebellion and failed in history often ended up with their heads and bodies missing. But when it was Li Chengqian's turn, he was just an exile. Maybe Li Shimin really loved this child, but what Tang Taizong did For setting this man on a path that leads to destruction.”

Li Shimin: I didn’t expect that everything would end on me.

Zhu Yuanzhang: Emperor Taizong, whether you like this prince or not, I don’t know which period of emperor you were. If Li Chengqian is still young, it would be best to remove his ministers first, and the two father and son can talk about it. I really don’t like to think about it. If you want to make a substitution, make it clear in advance so as not to make the father and son hate each other.

Li Shimin: I just arranged an assistant minister for the prince, but I immediately withdrew and replaced him with someone else to teach the prince.

Qin Shihuang: To learn the truth through practice, you can only understand the world by visiting the people.

Li Shimin: Don’t worry, First Emperor, I will take good care of the prince this time.

Lu Pheasant: Didn’t Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty intend to change the prince?Then there is no such thing as Li Zhi and Wu Zetian?

Liu Bei: It won’t have much impact, and there will only be problems in his plane.

Yue Fei: Sometimes not fighting is a benefit.

Li Tai was very capable. Let’s talk about his talents first. First of all, his literature was a few blocks ahead of Li Chengqian. He compiled "Kuo Di Zhi"! "

Zhu Di: "When the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman will gain." This is a kind of self-preservation, and it is also a great wisdom. Perhaps it was not fighting that allowed Li Zhi to achieve his greatest achievement. The throne "dropped from the sky". This is also a fool's blessing. Got it!
Qianlong: But on the other hand, Li Zhi did not achieve great political achievements during his reign. On the contrary, because of his cowardice, the balance of power repeatedly tilted towards Empress Wu, which made Li Tang's country uneasy.

"There is another flaw, a lack of reflection. Not counting the education of the three assistant ministers, many ministers have tried to persuade Li Chengqian to do extraordinary things, but he did not listen. Instead, he likes to do the opposite. This is very detrimental to that position. Speaking of taboos,"

Sima Cuo: That’s right, his surname is Li. With such a high evaluation, you can’t stupidly go back to Sui Dynasty!
Wu Zetian: Li Shimin's world has an important eldest grandson family, and a group of important ministers who rebelled against the Sui Dynasty. Li Ke has no right to be in power, but people who just want to live an ordinary life are still framed by this group of people.

"Li Tai is the one who looks the least like Li Shimin among the princes. He is a fat man and his literary talent is indeed outstanding, but he is not very good at military affairs. He is also a bit too sharp and has no scheming."

"Li Chengqian, Li Tai, Li Ke, and Li Zhi, these four are considered the most powerful. If we compare the four princes, they should be Li Ke, Li Zhi, Li Tai, and Li Chengqian."

"Li Chengqian had just been deposed for forcing the palace, and Li Tai couldn't wait to ask Li Shimin for the crown prince position. Li Tai promised that in a hundred years, he would kill his son and let his younger brother Li Zhi succeed him."

“It’s easy to imagine the talent of a character with no brains, distorted psychology, and poor moral character.”

"This is not something that ordinary people can do. After all, writing a masterpiece during the Tang Dynasty required manpower, material and financial resources, especially since engraving and printing had not yet been developed. The cost of writing a book was quite huge. Li Tai completed it , Li Shimin also admired him very much."

Zhu Yuanzhang: The queen is right. Li Shimin should have this kind of thinking. Everyone loves and cares about him, which led to unrest and ambition, to the point of brotherly fratricide.

"Speaking of Li Ke, let me show you my ranking of the four princes."

"Also, Li Chengqian has physical defects and inconvenient legs and feet, which has already reduced points for his image."

"Secondly, he is very obsessed with Turkic culture. He behaves like a Turk. He lives a Turkic life, worships the Turkic culture, and makes everyone and everything around him look like a Turk. How could such a person be suitable to be a Turk? Where is the future prince of the Tang Dynasty?"

"Even if there is no rebellion, based on Li Chengqian's performance in the later period, he will be demoted from the position of prince sooner or later. As the future emperor, Li Chengqian's psychological quality is not strong. After the death of his mother, the eldest grandson, Queen, he experienced a series of weird things Behavior is destined to miss the throne."

Queen Ma: Emperor Taizong probably wanted a bowl of water to be balanced. Like father, like son. Li Yuan had this kind of character. However, in the royal family, this kind of son-loving behavior is not allowed.

Yu Qian: No matter how talented you are, you can't do it without help. If you block the way of some people, it will be impossible for you to live an ordinary life. "What everyone said is correct. It is a reality. Li Ke is the most likely to be the emperor and the least likely one."

Li Longji: As you say, why are there no political achievements? *********, isn’t that right?
Cao Cao: What about Li Ke?
"After Li Zhi came to the throne, there were still quite a few highlights, such as expanding the territory of the Tang Dynasty to the largest extent! This is Li Zhi's biggest highlight. From this point of view, Tang Taizong and Tang Xuanzong who followed were not as good as him, but he still had the biggest The point of criticism is that Wu Zetian caused trouble and ruined the Tang Dynasty!"

"First of all, Li Chengqian, I think Li Chengqian has the potential to be a tyrant. Let's not talk about his mental illness, let's talk about his habit of being a pedophile. He also likes men. No matter how lustful I am, I still like women. This person who likes men is still a pedophile. , when Li Shimin killed that "Xinxin", he actually started to hate his father. Is this your father, just for a man? Without reflecting on his own absurdity, without being grateful to Li Shimin for his tolerance, Instead, they set up a mourning hall in the back garden to pay homage to "Rong Xin", which is really senseless!"

"I'll tell you about these four first. I'll just talk about the personal abilities of these four people, without taking into account other factors, such as background, direct descendants, and then I'll let you rank them."

Shang Yang: Why?He has the strongest ability, but he has no choice of the throne just because he has a bloodline from the previous dynasty?This is nonsense!

"Li Tai is talented and has the ambition to be emperor, but he does not have an imperial palace."

Qin Shihuang: I even think that Li Chengqian and Fusu are almost the same, but this one is still ranked last, so how high is the evaluation of being first!
Liu Bowen: Just the word "high" is the highest evaluation for a prince, and the content should be told by Miss Zhang.

"How can you believe such a thing? Killing your own brother and letting your son ascend to power is just as good."

"As for the military aspect, Li Taixiwen, in addition to welcoming his father, also tried to please the civil servants. However, he ignored the generals. If he ascends the throne, there may be Zhao Kuangyin's actions. This is Although he is talented, he values ​​literature over martial arts, is too ambitious, and lacks scheming. What he said to Li Shimin made him give up immediately."

 In fact, Li Tai and Li Zhi are a little uncertain about this ranking. You can rank it yourself and take a look.
