965、Anyway
"His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, we have killed all the families of Yizhi Wende, the culprit who killed hundreds of thousands of Central China's children. Please withdraw your troops quickly!" Gao Zang said.
Li Shimin said seriously: "When did I agree? I will withdraw my troops if you kill the family of Yizhi Wende?"
"Didn't this say by the general next to the emperor at that time?" Gao Zang asked.
Li Shimin continued: "He is him, I am me, when did I agree?"
Gao Zang was completely confused. He did not expect Li Shimin to be so shameless. At that time, Li Shimin was obviously next to Jing Wen, and after Jing Wen said those words, Li Shimin still "pretendingly" nodded repeatedly, and Gao Zang thought this was Li Shimin's intention. As a result, Gao Zang went back to tell his brother Wang, and now the Tang Dynasty has turned around.
"Your Majesty, you obviously agreed!" Gao Zang said anxiously.
"When did I agree? Don't talk nonsense, otherwise I will definitely hold you accountable for fake imperial edicts!" Li Shimin said.
Gao Zang then realized that he was fooled by Li Shimin. At that time, Li Shimin just nodded and did not say anything to agree with Jing Wen. If it were strictly speaking, Li Shimin didn't speak at all, so naturally he could not say what Li Shimin promised. That would mean that Li Shimin had no promise, but he killed Yizhi Wende's family without getting Li Shimin's actual promise. This really made him lose his grandma's house at a loss. Now that the Tang Dynasty turns against others, he is really not a human inside and outside.
Gao Zang continued to angrily: "Your Majesty, this is what the general around you promised. If he fools us like this, shouldn't he be punished? This is a crime of falsely spreading imperial edicts. According to the rules of your Tang Dynasty, you should be severely punished, right?"
Gao Zang knew that he was beaten by the Tang Dynasty. The reason why the Tang Dynasty asked them to kill the family of Yizhi Wende was actually to shake the people's hearts within Goguryeo. Only by shaken the people's hearts within them could Gao Jianwu lose the people's hearts. Once the people lose their hearts, in this case when the Tang Dynasty army suppressed the capital, it would be very miserable if the people did not support the king. At that time, all kinds of people's hearts would change, and Gao Jianwu would be finished.
"Oh, Jing Wen agreed to you casually. This is not my idea. So I have punished him heavily. I have dismissed him and then made meritorious service." Li Shimin said.
The so-called dismissal means that you are exempted from your official position, but you are still allowed to exercise your power in the original position and then find a way to make meritorious service to regain your official position. This kind of thing is actually a bluff. In ancient times, many officials were dismissal and then punished. But in fact, they were still exercising their power and had no substantial impact. As for the one who made meritorious service, it was completely a sign of attention. If the superior thought that he had enough credit, he could officially restore his position. So this was a punishment that was not a punishment. It all depends on what the person above thought.
Li Shimin dismissed Jing Wen, but in fact he did not use anything and did not have any actual punishment. Jing Wen was still exercising the rights of the Minister of Military Affairs and continuing to be the chief of staff for Li Shimin. So this is a punishment, but this punishment is not painful and does not have any threats.
"Okay! What a great Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, I know! You are so shameless. We Goguryeo are not vegetarians. We will definitely defeat you again and kill all your hundreds of thousands of troops! At that time, we will definitely destroy your Tang Dynasty." Gao Zang said angrily.
Gao Zang was completely angry, and he naturally knew that all this was a conspiracy of the Tang Dynasty. The Tang Dynasty did not really want to let Goguryeo go. This time, he borrowed Goguryeo's hand and killed Yizhi Wende's family with a knife, so that their people's hearts would be dispersed.
In fact, Gao Jianwu knew the reason, but they still had hope in case, but now this hope has become despair. Once human beings are desperate, they will become completely hysterical. If Gao Jianwu and Gao Zang knew that the Tang Dynasty would not let them go, they would definitely fight to the death. Anyway, if they die, they would have to drag down a few Tang people who were on the cusp.
"Come on, send this madman back to Pyongyang City!" Li Shimin said angrily.
Gao Zang was crazy and said that he wanted to kill hundreds of thousands of troops of the Tang Dynasty and then destroy the Tang Dynasty? Isn’t this a lunatic? So Li Shimin would not talk much nonsense with a lunatic and directly let someone kill him away.
"Your Majesty, I'm taking the blame for you this time!" Jing Wen complained.
Li Shimin immediately said: "There are so many people in this world who want to take the blame for me. I will let you take the blame, that is your honor!"
"..." Jing Wen was speechless.
This time, Jing Wen proposed to Li Shimin, forcing Gao Jianwu to kill Yizhi Wende's family, which would make the Goguryeo people disintegrate. Of course, if Gao Jianwu wants to kill Yizhi Wende's family, they must see hope. Jing Wenwen said that as long as he kills Yizhi Wende's family, he would withdraw the army. In fact, Li Shimin deliberately wanted to deceive them. Jing Wenwen deliberately made Gao Zang mistakenly think that it was Li Shimin's idea, so that they would kill Yizhi Wende's family.
Of course, this is actually Li Shimin who is lying them. But Li Shimin is the emperor, so of course he cannot take the initiative to bear the crime of deceiving others. After all, there is no joke! If the emperor has deceived people, it will be a huge loss to the king's prestige. Therefore, the crime of deceiving others must be borne by Jing Wen, which means that Jing Wen has dismissed his post and made meritorious service.
As for Jing Wen, who was dismissed from office and made meritorious service, there was no meaning at all. The fool could see that Li Shimin did not hold him accountable. As for the next step, Jing Wen would continue to lead the staff to formulate a combat plan and then conquer Goguryeo for the Tang Dynasty.
"Jing Wen, tell the soldiers that I will take the initiative to bury these Yizhi Wende's family members!" Li Shimin said.
Jing Wen immediately gave a thumbs up and said, "Your Majesty, you are really sinister!"
"Go and go, why is this called sinister? Why do you say that to me?" Li Shimin said angrily.
"I understand, the emperor is paying attention to his opponent and appreciating loyal ministers! Even if he is an enemy, he can appreciate him." Jing Wen said.
