What is history: it is the echo of the past to the future, the reflection of the future on the past. - Hugo
Li Shimin was a famous emperor in ancient China, during his reign, the country was peaceful and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and the Tang Dynasty also ushered in a new prosperous era. However, although Li Shimin did make many political achievements during his reign, one thing that has always been criticized by people is that his throne came from the wrong way and was forced to obtain the palace after killing his brother. But as the prince of the Kai Dynasty, Li Yuan, who once held real power, why did he willingly give up the throne to him? It turned out that this was also Li Yuan's helpless move.
In fact, before the xuanwumen change occurred, Li Yuan's original intention was to adjust the relationship between the three brothers and ease the contradictions between them. However, what Li Yuan could not imagine was that he did not wait for his three sons in the Linhu Hall, but waited for a bloodied and heavily armed Wei Chi Jingde. You must know that when meeting the monarch in ancient China, it was absolutely forbidden to carry weapons, and the reason why Wei Chi Jingde did this shows that he no longer takes Li Yuan seriously. In addition, Wei Chi Jingde represented Li Shimin, so his move was to warn Li Yuan that if he did not abdicate, then I am afraid that Li Shimin would kill his father next.
The second is that at that time, Li Yuan actually had very few rights left, and even he himself was in a state of being controlled by Li Shimin, and his every move was under surveillance, even if he wanted to resist, he was powerless. If it is hard, then there is only one dead end.
In the end, Li Shimin was li shimin's son after all, and Li Yuan did not know what to do with Xuanwumen if he continued to be emperor, so he simply abdicated the throne and let xian, leaving it to the young people to solve it themselves.
