C320 A high scholar of the tang dynasty(part i)

In next to no time, the group of advisors from the Heavenly Policy Manor had arrived at the Emperor's Taiji Palace.

"Your Majesty, this subject has heard that you did not sleep last night. If possible, this subject is willing to help His Majesty out. " The officials gathered briefly in front of Taiji Palace before entering the palace together. And the one who spoke first, was none other than Du Ruhui.

Du Ruhui was born in the history of 585 A.D., with the character KM Ming, Han nationality, Jing Zhao Du Ling (now Xi'an Chang'an) people.

He was the first appearance of the Tang Dynasty.

In Du Ruhui's early years, he was a Fen Yang captain in the Sui Dynasty.

In the last year of the Sui Dynasty, he became the important staff officer of the Qin Wang.

In the past, when Li Shimin fought with Xue Ren Guo, Liu Wu Zhou, Wang Shizhong, Dou Jiande and the others, Du Ruhui had schemed for a plan and schemed for a plan. He was well respected by the people of the times, and he had helped Li Shimin a lot.

When Li Shimin established his library, he used Du Ruhui as his scholar and became the head of the 18 Scholars. When the Black Tortoise Sect changed, Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling joined in the planning, and after everything was done, the two of them took the lead.

After Li Shimin ascended to the throne, Du Ruhui received the title of a official from the Cai Empire, relocated as a servant to Shang Shu. He had the same intentions as Fang Xuanling and helped him to choose talent, set up laws, and so on. Fang Xuanling was good at scheming, but Du Ruhui was decisive in handling matters, thus the two of them were called "The House of the Chaotic Storm".

The future generations would use Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling as role models, and jointly call them "Fang, Du".

At this time, he looked at Li Shimin with eyes shining with curiosity.

Although Li Shimin had not even ascended the throne for two years, in these two years, he had never been troubled to the point of not sleeping at all because of one thing.

Only before he became emperor would something trouble him.

"What is it that has troubled His Majesty so much?" Not only Du Ruhui, the other officials were also very curious.

Li Shimin glanced at Du Ruhui and faintly smiled, showing an attitude of not being alarmed at all.

This was the basic cultivation of the emperor. Even if it was rumored that the Emperor had not slept at all for a single matter, he still had to hold back in his demeanor.

He patted his hands, and had the servant take out the lever crossbow that he found from Xiao Wen's gifts last night, and showed it to everyone.

Seeing that it was a weapon, the first person who came up to check was Zhangsun Wuji.

The eldest Sun Wuji and the other Han Chinese officials present more or less looked different because he was a lowly person. In fact, after experiencing the chaos, many of China's surnames were actually the surnames of minority groups.

This was why many people in the future generations felt that having a new surname was not the case. Perhaps, these people belonged to a group of barbarians that had fallen behind the Han people.

Of course, the historical Zhangsun Wuji was rather skilled.

Long Sun Wuji, born in 594 A.D., was a native of Henan Luoyang.

His relationship with Li Shimin was not as simple as that of the Prime Minister and the Emperor.

In fact, he was a relative.

The current emperor's queen, who had accompanied the emperor to burn his brain cells last night, was none other than Zhangsun Wuji's sister.

The eldest grandson Wuji was the eldest son of Sun Cheng, a general of the Sui Dynasty on the right. His mother was the daughter of Gao Mai, a King of Northern Qi, and he was the same mother and brother as Queen Wen De.

However, the eldest grandson was raised by his uncle, Gao Shiliang, and became a friend of Tang Taizong. Afterwards, he was married to Tang Taizong.

After the ancestor of Tang Gao, Li Yuan had started his army, Zhangsun Wuji went to seek help from Li Shimin, and followed him into the battle, becoming his trusted aide and later on, participated in planning for the incident at the Xuanwu Sect.

During the Chastity Monastery, Zhangsun Wuji was appointed as the Great General Marquis of Zuo Wu, Minister of the Civil Service, Minister of the Right Servant of the Minister, Sikong, Situ, Shang Zhong and Zhong Shu, and was conferred the title of Duke of Zhao. He was ranked first among the meritorious officials of the Pavilion of Lingyan Pavilion. He supported Gao Zong in the battle for storage, and was appointed Minister of Imperial Affairs, awarded the Grand Commandant, and taught three grades under the same Central Book Sect.

During the Yonghui period, Zhangsun Wuji hosted the revision of "Tentative Discussion on Tang Lu" on the basis of "The Law of Chastity".

However, his fate was not too good. After Li Shimin died, Zhangsun Wuji opposed Gao Zong making Empress Wu a queen. In the fourth year (659), he was framed by Xu Jingzong, exiled to Guizhou, and hanged himself.

It was only until the year before last that he and the others, who had been killed by Empress Wu, were able to reverse the situation.

However, at this moment, he was the emperor's most trusted Minister.

He took the lever crossbow s from the box and discovered that the oil used on the crossbow for maintenance had not been wiped clean. Obviously, it had not been used for much after it was made. Maybe the only time I ever used it was when the Emperor tried to shoot me yesterday,

After playing with it for a long time, he felt that he really did not have the talent in machinery. He could only sigh and look at Li Shimin again.

Only then did he realize that he had been rude.

It turned out that just as he was observing the lever crossbow, Li Shimin had already passed him a crossbow arrow.

However, he, who was immersed in his research, didn't notice it at all.

He quickly bowed: "I'm sorry."

"It's fine." Li Shimin was extremely magnanimous, after all, he could endure even spouting at Wei Zheng, so there was no need to talk about Zhangsun Wuji's earlier actions of forgetting himself.

Thus, he grabbed the crossbow arrow, filled it up, and after admitting his mistake again, he shot towards the entrance of Taiji Palace just like how Li Shimin did last night.

Everyone was camaraderie that had come to life on the battlefield. There were many times when Li Shimin had to hand over his background to these people.

Therefore, the emperor was very confident that his grandson would not suddenly seek death by pointing the crossbow at him.

Once again, the oppressive sound of the crossbow arrow entering the wood resounded. Demon King of Confusion Cheng Yaojin was the first to rush up to take a look.

He was the founding general of the Tang Dynasty, one of the Four Great Scholars of the Pavilion of Ascending Mist.

In the last year of the Sui Dynasty, Cheng Yaojin entered the Wagang Army, voted for Wang Shizhong and descended into the Tang Dynasty. They followed Li Shimin to defeat Song Jingjin, capture Dou Jiande, and bring Wang Shiren down.

Participate in the change of Xuanwu Sect, liuzhou governor, left army leader Great General, changed the Lu emperor, inherited the history of the Puzhou assassins.

What was worth mentioning was that the border officer Cheng Huaimo, who had received Xiao Wen half a month ago, was this Demon King of Confusion's son.

At this time, Old Cheng ran to the front of Taiji Palace's door, and loudly shouted as he looked at the three-in-one crossbow arrow: "Aiyaya! Before, when I, I, my son Huai Mo said that this Xiao Wen had a very powerful crossbow. Seeing you today, it really is extraordinary. "

"General Cheng, do you have any ideas?" Li Shimin couldn't help but ask as he looked at Cheng Yaojin's actions.

However, Cheng Yaojin shook his head at a loss, and said: "Your Majesty, I am just curious, Huai Mo previously said that Xiao Wen's crossbow was very powerful, so out of curiosity, I couldn't help but go over to take a look."

Hearing that, a look of disappointment flashed past Li Shimin's eyes.

However, he didn't care too much about it.

After all, Cheng Yaojin's actions were within his expectations.

Cheng Yaojin was a citizen of Donga County, Ji Prefecture.

In the past, from the six years of Sui Yang's career (610 AD), thieves swarmed up in the Sui Nation's territory. Cheng Yaojin had organized an army of several hundred people to defend the village.

Later attached to Li Mi, was reused as one of the internal army hussars. In the army, Lee Mi selected 8000 brave men, who were part of the four hussars, and divided them into left and right, known as the internal army. "These eight thousand men are worth a million men," Lee said.

Cheng Yaojin was one of the four hussars riders, and had received a very generous favor.

When Wang Shizhong and Li Mi were fighting, Cheng Yaojin led the internal cavalry and camped on Mang Mountain.

When Wang Shizhong attacked the camp, Lee Mi sent Cheng Yaojin and Pei Xing to rescue them. The arrows shot Pei Xing down and he fell to the ground. Cheng Yaojin galloped his horse to rescue them, killing a few men in a row. Taking advantage of Wang Shizhong's retreat, he carried Pei Xing away and the two of them galloped back together.

's body was pierced, Cheng Yaojin turned and broke his spear, he then killed his pursuer, and the two of them escaped from the danger.

Later, Lee Mi failed and was captured by Wang Shizhong, who appointed him a general.

However, Cheng Yaojin was a general after all, a general who only knew how to lead troops into battle.

If he was asked to explain the effect that crossbow could have on the war after assembling the troops. Maybe Cheng Yaojin could deduce one, two, three from his own experience and his innate talent in war.

However, it would be hard for him to explain the political meaning behind Xiao Wen giving the lever crossbow to him.
