Chapter 91 If he had died twenty years earlier, he would have deserved the title of the greatest emperor of all time.

"Humph, this Li Zicheng has only a great reputation but no real talent. If I were born in that era, I would have no worries about not accomplishing my great cause!"

Not only Zhang Fei, but Cao Cao who was far away had a similar reaction, his cock was turning purple with envy.

There was no way. The Qing Dynasty's entrepreneurship was too easy. In the late Eastern Han Dynasty, when warlords were fighting for power and demons were rampant, it was just like a child playing house.

In this situation, Cao Aman only regretted that he was born at the wrong time.

Old Zhu, Zhu Di and many other Ming emperors felt their hearts bleeding.

The Ming Dynasty... just perished like that?

"Corrupt officials should be killed!"

"Emperor Chongzhen Zhu Youjian is immoral and incompetent, and is unworthy of being a ruler!"

During the Hongwu period, the angry voice of Zhu Yuanzhang was heard in Yingtian Prefecture!

He did not blame the people for rebelling against the Ming, because he was also a rebel and knew that the people would not rebel unless they really could not survive.

He was angry at the corrupt officials who forced the people to rebel, at Chongzhen's incompetence, and of course, at Li Zicheng!

I was angry at their lack of fighting spirit, which led to the destruction of the Han dynasty!

From then on, the country fell into the hands of foreign races, and the people suffered terribly!

"Ungrateful and ambitious!"

"It seems that Chenghua Li Ting's killing was not cruel enough!"

At the same time, Emperor Chenghua was also furious.

He immediately summoned Wang Zhi and ordered him to reorganize the three armies!
……

Just when the Ming Dynasty dynasties regarded the Jurchens as their number one enemy, they reorganized their troops and tried to completely wipe out this scourge.

A new video title appeared again on the sky.

[If he had died twenty years earlier, he would have deserved to be called the greatest emperor of all time.]

……

An ancient emperor.

As soon as these four words came out, they instantly attracted the attention of countless emperors.

"Died twenty years earlier... the greatest emperor in history..."

Li Shimin pondered what Tianmu said: "According to what Tianmu said, as an emperor, this person should have made great achievements, but due to old age and confusion, he made a big mistake, which led to a reversal of his reputation."

Thinking about this, a person suddenly popped up in Li Shimin's mind!

Emperor Xuanzong of Tang, Li Longji!
The facts were exactly as he thought.

……

[Some people say that Li Longji was good in every way except that he lived too old.]

[If he had died 20 years earlier, he would have deserved to be called the greatest emperor of all time.]

Li Shimin was shocked. He had guessed it right.

"I hope that with Tianmu's reminder, you can wake up soon and be less foolish..."

Li Shimin thought to himself that if Li Longji could really reform himself, it would be a good story for the two greatest emperors of the Tang Dynasty.

If Li Longji had been prepared earlier and nipped the rebellion in the bud, the Tang Dynasty might have been able to break through the 300-year limit.

The war-torn scene of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms might not have occurred, and the people in the Central Plains would have suffered less from the war.

[There is no way, the gap between Li Longji's first half of life and the second half of life is too big. ]

[In the first half of his life, he dared to challenge his grandmother Wu Zetian and seize power from his aunt Princess Taiping. ]

[But later he became obsessed with the peerless beauty of his daughter-in-law Yang Yuhuan and chose to lie down.]...

"?"

"Daughter-in-law?"

The unexpected scandal made Li Shimin so upset that he almost vomited blood.

How can it be justified for the emperor of the Tang Dynasty to snatch his son's wife from him?
Is that true?
……

[Today, let's take a look at how Li Longji personally led the Tang Dynasty into the glorious Kaiyuan Era, and how he watched the Tang Dynasty fall into the bloody An-Shi Rebellion.]

……

Li Shimin's head was bulging with veins: "I want to know too."

"But I want to know more about Yang Yuhuan. What kind of peerless beauty could have made the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty so infatuated with her?"

……

[Regarding Little Li Longji, the Old Book of Tang describes him like this: Li Longji is multi-talented, especially in music, with artistic talent, and he is also very handsome.]

[If he could grow up in a normal family, maybe Li Longji could become an idol artist. ]

……

Idol artist?

What is this thing? Is it good to be an emperor?

The great calligrapher and painter Song Huizong shook his head and continued to study his calligraphy and paintings.

……

[But God obviously had other plans for Li Longji. Li Longji's family life was very unstable. His father, Li Dan, was the emperor. Unfortunately, when Li Longji was 5 years old, his father was forced to resign, and his grandmother, Wu Zetian, took over and became an empress.]

[Little Li Longji was imprisoned in the palace from then on, not allowed to go out to play, and was imprisoned for seven years.]

[When Li Longji was eight years old, his mother was summoned by his grandmother Wu Zetian early in the morning, and she disappeared from the face of the earth. ]

[Li Longji cried and looked for his mother, but his father dared not say a word about his wife's disappearance. This may be Li Longji's earliest intuitive impression of power. Power can make a person disappear, and power can also make people shut up.]

[This period of horrific and depressing confinement inserted a hint of cruelty and obsession with power into Li Longji's character.]

【Little Li Longji changed his nickname from then on to A-Man. 】

[Yes, it is the Aman of Cao Aman who would rather betray the world. ]

……

"I never thought that Emperor Xuanzong of Tang would regard me as an idol."

In the Xuchang Palace, Cao Cao was in great joy, "Interesting! Very interesting!"

Cao Cao was very happy for a while that he had an emperor fan. It seemed that there were still people who could agree with his ideas!

Zhu Jianshen and Zhu Youtang, father and son, who had similar experiences with Li Longji and had experienced the feeling of being neglected by their fathers and mothers, felt a sense of sympathy.

……

[When Li Aman was sixteen years old, his grandmother Wu Zetian was finally driven off the throne, and his uncle Li Xian succeeded to the throne as emperor. Li Longji finally saw the light of day again.]

[My uncle Li Xian first appointed Li Longji as the Imperial Charioteer, responsible for managing horses, and then transferred Li Longji away from the capital to be the deputy governor of Luzhou. During these two years of foreign visits, there is not much recorded in history books about what Li Longji did in Luzhou. We only know that Li Longji built a pavilion in Luzhou and named it Defeng Pavilion.]

[The term "德风" comes from the Analects of Confucius. Someone asked Confucius if it was appropriate to kill a few people so that the people of the world would be afraid and follow the right path from then on.]

【Confucius said that it is not necessary. The virtue of the rulers is like the wind, and the virtue of the people is like the grass, which sways with the wind.】

[To put it simply, if the leader is virtuous, the people will naturally follow suit.]

[It can be seen that the young Li Longji at that time was determined to be a good official who set an example. ]
