Before the Xuanwu Gate, how powerful was Li Shimin? Is it a three-point world, or does he cover the sky with one hand?
The throne itself is a fascinating thing, and in ancient times, how many people were subservient to the throne and even rebelled to get this supreme right.
After all, this power is originally a tempting thing, and if they can get such a high position, they have the final say in the world, and they are naturally willing to gamble their lives to fight for such a good thing.
Even the prince who is in the royal family will turn against each other because of the competition for the throne, and Li Shimin, who is the founding emperor of the Tang Dynasty, also hides his blood relatives in the bones under his feet.
In fact, before Li Shimin launched the Xuanwumen Change, he already had a lot of power, but Li Shimin had been covering up his strength at that time.
It was not until the last moment that Li Shimin decided to take the imperial power into his own hands and sit on the throne safely, and it is no wonder that Li Shimin got the throne so smoothly, mainly because the power in his hands is too great.
At that time, Li Shimin held the military power in his hands, and the 16 Wei commanders of the entire Tang Dynasty at that time, as well as the generals of the left and right Wuhou, were all under the care of Li Shimin.
It is difficult for even a son-in-law to have such a high power, and this kind of power is already a unique existence in the army, even Li Jiancheng at that time could not match Li Shimin.
With such a high power, this is not the end, but Li Shimin has other positions on his body, and Li Shimin was still a lieutenant and a general of Tiance Mansion at that time.
With so many positions in his body, it means that both civil and military officials are in the hands of Li Shimin, and it is not particularly difficult to capture the hearts of these officials.
The most important thing is that an emperor wants to succeed in ascending to the throne, and the most important thing is to have real power in his hands, that is, to have an army, and Li Shimin happens to be in line, because he holds the strongest army in the entire Tang Dynasty.
Later, Li Shimin also wore many hats, and with this convenience, naturally no one dared not listen to Li Shimin's words, and Li Shimin held all the rights from then on.
To put it simply, Li Shimin's power at that time was so great that rebellion was only a matter of willingness or unwillingness for him, as long as he ordered it, more people would be ruined by Li Shimin's liver and brain.
Even if the monarch has so much power, Li Shimin was still the Situ in the entire court at that time, and he also held the two positions of Shangshuling and Zhongshuling.
At that time, in order to be able to better manage the Tang Dynasty, the system of three provinces and six ministries conformed to the times, which naturally appeared, but there were Li Shimin's people in each of these three provinces, the most important thing was that Li Shimin was still the head of Shangshuling and Zhongshuling, that is to say, the leader of all the prime ministers' teams.
The most important thing for the three provinces and six ministries is to obey the words of Shangshu Ling and Zhongshu Ling, but it is so important that the two positions are all in the hands of Li Shimin, which means that the entire court is decided by Li Shimin.
With such a huge influence in the court, who would dare to openly oppose Li Shimin? Moreover, Li Shimin was extremely ambitious, and he had developed quite a few subordinates in private.
In remote places, there are also Li Shimin's local forces, they occupy various places, obey Li Shimin's call, as long as Li Shimin gives an order, they will definitely rebel.
At that time, Li Shimin was very smart, and he planted all kinds of eyeliner in the court, and later included the entire north in his sight, constantly expanding and developing his power.
In other words, Li Shimin at that time had such a high status in the court, and he could cover the sky with one hand in the entire northern region.
It's no wonder that when Li Shimin rebelled, Li Yuan, as a father, didn't dare to speak much, and even Li Jiancheng watched his throne being taken away by his younger brother.
And even if Li Shimin does not launch the Xuanwumen Change, others sitting on the throne are just an empty shell, and Li Shimin can grasp the changes in the court anytime and anywhere.
It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the regent in the future, so the change in Xuanwumen seems to be an unchanging ending, and Li Yuan and Li Jiancheng are also doomed, unable to firmly grasp the power in their hands.
And after Li Shimin seized the throne, he did not disappoint others, he was diligent all his life, trying his best to benefit the people, and created a prosperous era since the Tang Dynasty.
