So, is the prince, who is Li Shimin's opponent, really as incompetent, immoral, and mediocre as described in later history books or film and television dramas? The answer is of course no.
Real Li Jiancheng is by no means an ordinary person. Since the launch of the army in Jinyang, Li Shimin went out to fight, Li Jiancheng was in charge of the rear, and he was in charge of all the money and grain dispatch and supply in the rear; Li Jiancheng also made an indispensable contribution to the founding of the Tang Dynasty ; as for the talent, what kind of person are Xue Wanche and Wei Zheng , if he is really useless, how could the trendsetters of these times be willing to assist!
Li Jiancheng’s biggest problem is that he overestimated himself and underestimated Li Shimin. His mistake is that his heart is not cruel enough and his actions are not fast enough, which just shows that his virtue is far above Li Shimin. As for his romantic affairs in the harem, did Li Shimin do little? Isn’t the entire , Li Tang, royal family the same? Just a hundred steps to laugh.
As the prince, Li Jiancheng is at least qualified, but he encountered a better, more courageous and cold-blooded brother. If he is not outstanding enough, can he use Li Shimin to plan such a tragic Xuanwu Gate Incident?
History is written by the winner. As a loser, you can only hide in the dust. It is inevitable that you will be touched, slandered, and throw dirty water. Only in this way can this show the great glory and correctness of the winner. After all, this is just a matter of overshadowing the truth!
