"It's hard to say."
Qin Chuan said vaguely as he ate a mouthful of food.
Li Jun did not mind." What's there to say? You're also a native of Chang 'an. You should know what happened in the palace two years ago, right?"”
Qin Chuan was stunned. He looked at Li Jun, who was hinting at something, and couldn't help but frown.
Qin Chuan knew that the aristocrats of the Sui and Tang dynasties did not have much respect for the emperor.
Since the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, the imperial power had been destroyed by the aristocrats.
The throne of the Western Jin Dynasty was snatched from Cao Huan, the Emperor Yuan of Wei, by Sima Yan, a powerful official of the aristocratic family.
Northern Qi's throne was snatched from the Eastern Wei Emperor Xiaojing, Yuan Shanjian, by Gao Huan.
The throne of the Northern Zhou Dynasty was snatched by Yuwen Jue, a powerful official of the aristocratic family, from the hands of Yuan Kuo, Emperor Gong of the Western Wei Dynasty.
The throne of the former Sui Dynasty was also snatched by Yang Jian from Yuwen Chan, the Emperor of Zhou Jing.
Even the founding emperor of the Great Tang, Li Yuan, was a noble family of the Sui Dynasty!
The emperor takes turns to do it. This year, it's my house.
These days, no one in the world took the Emperor too seriously. In their eyes, the imperial family was just a noble family that had gained some power.
No one could say for sure when the Great King's Flag would change on the city wall, and they would ascend to the throne and become royalty.
Qin Chuan knew what Li Jun wanted to say.
Apart from the mutiny of Xuanwu Sect that everyone in Chang 'an knew, what else could have happened in the palace two years ago?
Qin Chuan paused his chopsticks." I feel that this matter isn't something that can be discussed.”
"Oh?" Li Jun raised an eyebrow." Killing his brother and imprisoning his father? Isn't this matter clear? Why can't we talk about it?"”
"Personally speaking, the current Emperor has nothing to say. He is clearly not a good person. He killed his brother and imprisoned his father. He betrayed his filial piety. He is quite a failure as a son, and he is also quite a failure as a brother.”
Qin Chuan took a sip of wine and smacked his lips.
In fact, according to what he knew, Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty had not only failed as a son, but also as a brother. He had also failed as a father.
His sons were not taught well, and in the end, they all walked down his own path.
If it wasn't for the deep love he had with Empress Zhangsun as a husband, his life would have basically collapsed.
"However, if you look at it from another perspective, he is actually a very good politician and military strategist.”
Li Jun was stunned." What? A politician? Military strategist?"
Qin Chuan nodded and said in a deep voice," Mn, in my opinion, the coup of the Black Tortoise Sect could be said to be the most spectacular and successful coup in history!”
"Ah?" Li Jun was even more stunned.
"In the past dynasties, there was no coup that did not cause war. The coup of the Black Tortoise Sect limited the coup to the struggle of the royal family and did not affect the government and the people, greatly protecting the country!”
"At the same time, we fought against the three powerful enemies at the lowest price and obtained the greatest victory!”
"With just eight hundred men, Yi Jian managed to eliminate Li Jiancheng, Li Yuanji, and the Retired Emperor, transforming the world of the Great Tang!”
"Moreover, the Black Tortoise Sect's coup was planned out meticulously and closely.”
" Bribe the Black Tortoise Sect's general in advance, ambush them, capture the leader first, kill Li Jiancheng with an arrow, and quickly and accurately eradicate Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji's forces. Cut the weeds and eliminate the roots cleanly, so that they won't even have a chance to turn the tables!
At the same time, they surrounded the Imperial Palace and trapped the Retired Emperor. With the strength of eight hundred men, they had overturned the imperial power of the Great Tang!”
" China has a long history, with countless dynasties and many coups. However, such a coup with the least casualties and the most victories is unprecedented. There will never be a second one in history!”
"As the instigator of the Black Tortoise Sect coup, His Majesty is not a good son or a good brother, but he is definitely an excellent politician and strategist!”
" The coup of the Black Tortoise Sect fully displayed his outstanding talents as a politician and a strategist. He swept away all his opponents in the court and on the battlefield and became the sole victor!”
Qin Chuan told him his views on the Black Tortoise Sect's change.
As history students, their perspective on historical events was very different from others.
As a bystander, from the perspective of God, he looked at the changes in the Black Tortoise Sect not only from the perspective of human nature, but also from the coup itself to analyze and explore.
From the perspective of human nature, Li Shimin was undoubtedly morally corrupt and his family was ugly. However, since the coup itself, Li Shimin was undoubtedly an outstanding politician and military strategist!
"That seems to be the case."
Li Jun was dumbfounded and clicked his tongue.
This was the first time he had heard someone evaluate the Black Tortoise Sect's change from such a tricky angle.
Moreover, it sounded quite reasonable. It seemed like that was really the case.
"Actually, it seems that His Majesty has ascended to the throne and become the final victor, but it has not been easy for him.”
Qin Chuan took a sip of wine and sighed faintly.
"He, he's not having it easy?"
Li Jun looked at Qin Chuan in surprise." He's already the emperor and is rich all over the world. Isn't it easy?”
Qin Chuan ignored Li Jun's dumbfounded expression and asked,"
"Do you know how much territory he has conquered?”
Li Jun thought,"He conquered most of the Tang Empire's territory."”
Qin Chuan nodded," That's right. Then do you know how many horses he killed when he conquered these territories, and how many arrows he shot at them?”
Qin Chuan originally wanted to say the famous Six Steeds of Zhaoling.
However, Li Shimin had only been on the throne for two years. At this time, not to mention the Six Horses of Zhaoling, even Zhaoling had not been built yet.
Li Jun shook her head.
"He changed six horses! In the battle at Tiger Cage Pass alone, he had changed three horses, and all of them had died in battle!”
"The Azure Stallion was hit by five arrows, Shifa Chi was also hit by five arrows, and Salu Purple was hit by one arrow!”
"If those arrows were a few inches higher, I'm afraid that the death wouldn't be as simple as those three warhorses!”
"It can be said that the majority of the Great Tang's territory was obtained by His Majesty's life on the battlefield!”
Although he had not personally witnessed the battle of Tiger Cage Pass, three of the general's warhorses had died.
He could imagine how intense the battle was and how dangerous the battlefield was!
Looking at Li Shimin's life before Li Tang established the country, Qin Chuan could not help but sigh.
He changed six warhorses, and the warhorses were hit by a total of twenty arrows. However, Li Shi Min managed to retreat from the dangerous battlefield without any mishaps.
Li Shimin would be considered the chosen one in future web novels!
After taking a sip of wine, Qin Chuan's lips curled up as he toyed with his wine cup and looked at Li Jun playfully.
"Brother Li, if it were you, would you be willing to see the land that you exchanged your life for be enjoyed by others and let others pluck the peaches without any effort?”
