The high bird is exhausted, the good bow is hidden, this is true!In the second year of Wude (619 AD), Liu Wenjing sighed and died generously. was killed with him, as well as his brother Liu Wenqi, and his family property was confiscated.
This year, Liu Wenjing was 52 years old, and it was only two years since the ambitious Jinyang raised troops.
When it comes to the founding of the Tang Dynasty, Liu Wenjing is the first hero.
Before meeting Li Yuan, Liu Wenjing was the commander of Jinyang County, and his friend Pei Lin was the palace supervisor of Jinyang.
In the thirteenth year of the Great Cause (617 AD), Li Yuan parachuted in and became the highest military and political governor of Taiyuan.
Seeing this top boss who walked like a tiger, Liu Wenjing and Pei Lin both felt that this person was extraordinary, so they had a good relationship with him.
However, the eyes of these two brothers are not at the same height.
He said, "Very human." Generosity is similar to Henkel, and Shenwu is the same as Wei Zu, although his age is young, it is the sky. "Silence has never happened. - Old Tang BookSeeing the young Erlang, Liu Wenjing felt that this son's future was limitless, but Pei Lin didn't think so. As a result, Liu Wenjing and Li Shimin became more and more friendly, while Pei Lin and Li Shimin mostly exchanged polite sex.
Because of this, Liu Wenjing laid a hidden danger for her unjust death in the future.
In order to help Li Yuan get up, Liu Wenjing can be said to have broken her heart.
First of all, he put forward a proposal to take advantage of the void to enter Guanzhong, and planned the correct strategic direction.
Then he made a preemptive strike and began to make every effort to build momentum, creating a favorable "** environment" for the smooth start of the incident.
He also used clever tactics to suppress the opposition forces such as Wang Wei and Gao Junya, who were left behind, and cleared the obstacles to the uprising.
After the incident, he personally sent an envoy to the Turks, so as not to strangle the great cause of hegemony in the cradle.
Li Yuan is the general, and Liu Wenjing is the Sima of the General's Mansion.
Li Yuan was promoted to the position of prime minister, and Liu Wenjing was reappointed as the prime minister's office.
Li Yuan was proclaimed emperor, Liu Wenjing was the answer, and got the privilege of "forgiving the second death".
It can be said that until this time, Li Yuan has never treated this hero lightly.
However, why did Liu Wenjing die in Huangquan just one year later?
In June of the first year of Wude (619 AD), Li Shimin led an army to conquer Xue Ju. In this first major war after the founding of the Tang Dynasty, Liu Wenjing served as Li Shimin's marshal's governor.
It is not difficult to see that Liu Wenjing and Li Shimin are getting closer and closer.
In the Battle of Shallow Water Plains in July, Liu Wenjing was defeated and dismissed from office. It doesn't matter, by November the Western Qin was completely pacified, and they all came back.
But Liu Wenjing still inevitably complains, because he has military merits and talents, but his status is far from Pei Lian's. The more Liu Wenjing thought about it, the more unhappy she became, and she began to work against Pei Lian.
At the evening banquet, three or two cups of yellow soup were eaten, Liu Wenjing sharpened his knife again, claiming that he must kill Pei Lian. Then, he was falsely accused of rebellion by the concubine who fell out of favor.
It stands to reason that this is not a "normal fight" between courtiers?
Liu Wenjing and Pei Lian are both their own ministers, Li Yuanxiong is very talented, how can he make a big deal for this kind of thing?
In fact, he really moved, because the person he appointed to preside over Liu Wenjing was Pei Lian. Obviously, this is a conspiracy against Liu Wenjing.
Even if Liu Wenjing is not falsely accused by this disgraced concubine, I am afraid that there will inevitably be other false accusations, anyway, his death is doomed, and it just happened that this opportunity made him take the initiative to bump into it.
This year, Li Shimin was not yet 21 years old, and the young King of Qin was trying his best to protect Liu Wenjing, and Xiao Yu, Li Gang and other important ministers were also protecting Liu Wenjing.
But after all, he couldn't resist Pei Lian's ruthlessness, or Li Yuan's acquiescence, and Liu Wenjing was soon ordered to be beheaded.
A "trumped-up" crime of rebellion easily took Liu Wenjing's life, even if he still has the privilege of "forgiving two deaths".
It's a pity that Liu Wenjing, although he understands the truth of "high birds, good bows are hidden", he still can't help but get too close to Li Shimin.
Even if he is arrogant, even if he is proud of his merits, as long as he is like Pei Lian and just clings to the big tree of Li Yuan, even if he is insatiable, he may be fine.
He has a good relationship with Li Shimin, and Li Shimin has a heavy army in his hands, and he is not the prince, which is very dangerous. The monarch is not worried that the courtiers are greedy for gold and silver, but only that the courtiers are holding the sword mountain and the spear forest.
It's a pity that Li Shimin is still too young after all. If Liu Wenjing hadn't died so desperately, maybe Liu Wenjing wouldn't have died so quickly.
Of course, Li Yuan and Pei Lian, who have been comfortable for a few years, also want to cry without tears.
They may just want to borrow Liu Wenjing's life to "kill chickens and make an example of monkeys", but they never thought that what annoyed them was a "King Kong".
In the third year of Zhenguan (629 AD), Li Yuan had already become the emperor, Pei Lin was dismissed and exiled, and Liu Wenjing was rehabilitated and reinstated.
I don't know what Liu Wenjing under Jiuquan will think, his death is a manifestation of imperial power, and his grievances are another manifestation of imperial power. It's just that they all chose him.
