In the early days of the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, the Taiyuan original army naturally contributed the most to the Tang Dynasty. There are three people in the original group who planned Taiyuan to arise, namely Li Shimin, Pei Ji and Liu Wenjing. Everyone is familiar with Li Shimin and Peiji, but few people know about Liu Wenjing. In fact, Liu Wenjing's contribution is not much worse than Pei Ji's, but it's a pity that the Tang Dynasty was not long after its establishment, and he was beheaded because of making friends carelessly. He was the most tragic founding hero of the Tang Dynasty.
Liu Wenjing was born in a noble family, and later inherited his father's footsteps, and was named "Yitong No.3 Division". At the end of Sui Dynasty, Liu Wenjing was appointed as the magistrate of Taiyuan. At that time, Pei Ji served as the palace supervisor of Jinyang. They have a good relationship and are good friends. They often sleep in bed. Liu Wenjing is not only resourceful, but also accurate in judging people. He thinks Tang Gaozu is ambitious, and his son Li Shimin is a great man, so he intends to make friends with Tang Gaozu and his son, and often talks about them with Pei Ji.
Pei Ji and Tang Gaozu have a deep friendship and a good relationship. But Pei Ji didn't think that Tang gaozu and his son could achieve great things at that time. At the same time, Li Shimin also thinks that Liu Wenjing is a good teammate, and deliberately moves closer to him. So gradually, Li Shimin and Liu Wenjing gradually reached a * * * knowledge, they want to do a great thing, so they began to plan the issue of arise.
At first, Tang Gaozu thought the time was not ripe, and he didn't want to fight. Li Shimin and Liu Wenjing were very worried, so Liu Wenjing forged the imperial edict of Emperor Yang Di, alarmist, encouraged Baixin people to make trouble, and persuaded Peiji to cooperate with himself. Pei Ji and Tang Gaozu have the same idea, and they are unwilling to arise. Persuaded by Liu Wenjing, Pei Ji had to join the plans of Liu Wenjing and Li Shimin, and often urged Tang Gaozu to rise rapidly.
At the same time, Liu Wenjing was entrusted by Li Shimin to recruit soldiers and raise materials. With a series of plans by Liu Wenjing, Li Shimin and Pei Ji, Tang Gaozu finally set off. Later, Liu Wenjing advised Tang Gaozu many times, and Tang Gaozu was very satisfied with Liu Wenjing, a teammate. So Li Yuangang ascended the throne to establish the Tang Dynasty, and Liu Wenjing was the first to be promoted as prime minister, which can be said to be above ten thousand people under one person. At the same time, Tang Gaozu also gave the three people who planned the uprising an iron ticket to avoid death, which might avoid two deaths.
Although Liu Wenjing's contribution is greater than his good friend Pei Ji's, who let people have a good relationship with Tang Gaozu and persuaded Tang Gaozu to reign? Therefore, Pei Ji's treatment always outweighs Liu Wenjing's. Therefore, Liu Wenjing made the same mistake as all employees, and had great prejudice against people who entered through the back door. From then on, the two began to turn against each other, often against each other.
However, although Liu Wenjing often opposed Peiji in court and Liu Wenjing always opposed Peiji's political views, he never played dirty. However, Pei Ji was still worried and decided to strike first, so he falsely accused Liu Wenjing of rebellion. The emperor became suspicious, so Tang Gaozu immediately arrested Liu Wenjing.
Li Shimin, Li Gang and others tried their best to persuade Tang Gaozu, but Liu Wenjing didn't resist. However, Pei Ji wanted to go to Liu Wenjing again, so he constantly offered slanderers to Li Yuanjin and framed Liu Wenjing. Tang Gaozu is afraid of Liu Wenjing because of his great contribution. As soon as he listened to Pei Ji, he directly beheaded Liu Wenjing and his son and confiscated his property. It's no use having a gold medal to avoid death.
After Liu Wenjing's death, Pei Ji finally lost his political enemies and became popular in North Korea. Although the festival is not guaranteed, it is a happy ending. After Pei Ji's death, Li Shimin finally restored Liu Wenjing's reputation. Liu Wenjing was so miserable because he made careless friends.
