Why did Li Shimin choose Li Zhi, the Nine Emperor Princes? What is the meaning behind this?

First, Li Zhi does not fight for the throne, and his moral character is better than that of Li Chengqian and Li Tai. The second is that Li Zhi will protect the lives of his brothers, and he also has the ability to do so. This is obviously praising Li Zhi, believing that he is not only the best in character, but also not bad in ability.

Passing the throne to Li Zhi is not a helpless move, but the best choice.

The mediocrity and incompetence of other princes are inseparable from the eldest grandson Wuji behind the scenes Li Shimin asked the eldest grandson Wuji if he could change to a prince to assist the eldest grandson Wuji refused Sun Wuji took a fancy to Li Zhi who was more honest and easy to control.

Because reason is better in all aspects of his usual performance, he will choose him, and she also waited for a long time before choosing him.

Because Li Zhi is his sister-in-law and the eldest grandson empress; In order to protect him and the three sons of Empress Changsun at the same time, Li Chengqian, Li Tai and Li Zhi. Li Zhi was the only prince who could ascend to the throne at that time, plus the support of the eldest grandson Wuji.

This is because this prince was protected by his mother, and this prince's ability is also relatively good, so he will pass the throne to him. The reason is that he pays great attention to the country, and his ability to govern the country is relatively strong, and his strength is relatively strong, and his performance is more outstanding among all the princes.

Because the Nine Emperor Princes Li Zhi was very benevolent, Li Shimin was to prevent fratricide from happening, so he finally chose to pass on the throne to Li Zhi.

It may be because his intellect is the most mediocre, so he has the least influence, so he will choose the other party. The last reason is that he will not pose any threat to himself, so he will pass the throne to the other party.

Mainly because although he is very mediocre, he is very hard working and dedicated, and he is very good to the people, and the people have a high opinion of him.

Because Li Shimin's son rebelled at that time, his more powerful sons were no longer capable of inheriting the throne, so they could only choose Li Zhi; At that time, only Li Zhi was the only prince left, so he had to pass it on to him.

Because Li Shimin's nature is to let Wu Zetian assist the emperor. Li Zhi is very dependent on Wu Zetian, so it is best to make him emperor.

Li Zhi is not a waste, but too kind has caused an indecisive character to become a big thing, definitely not an entrepreneurial character, but it is still okay to keep it, Li Shimin himself loves the people like a son, he hopes to replace him is a benevolent monarch, and among all the princes, Li Zhi is the kindest, although he also understands that Li Zhi's talent is slightly lacking, but in the end the word "benevolence" prevails.

In order to protect the other 2 sons, Li Shimin's 3 sons-in-law, Li Chengqian, Li Tai, and Li Zhi.

Li Chengqian is the crown prince Li Tai competes with him for the crown prince In fact, Li Shimin is still very optimistic about Li Tai But because Li Zhi is the most benevolent among them, the two sons who chose Li Zhi can save their lives He didn't want his sister-in-law, that is, the child born to the eldest grandson empress, to suffer this bad luck So he chose Li Zhi In fact, he chose Li Zhi He was still very worried Because Li Zhi was too cowardly, so he also wrote a book for Li Zhi in his later years "Emperor Fan" to teach him how to be a good emperor.

"Establish a son to be long and not virtuous, and to establish a son to be noble and not to be long" feudal dynasty is the primogeniture inheritance system.

Tang Gaozong Li Zhi is the ninth son of Li Shimin, but his mother is the eldest grandson empress and the third son.

Li Zhi (628-683), the third emperor of the Tang Dynasty of China (reigned 649-683), was the ninth son of Li Shimin, Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, and his mother was the eldest grandson empress. In the fifth year of Zhenguan (631), he was named the king of Jin, the third son of Yan, and then because of the eldest son of Tang Taizong, the crown prince Li Chengqian, and the second son of Wei King Li Tai were deposed one after another, he was made the crown prince in the seventeenth year of Zhenguan (643). In the twenty-third year of Zhenguan (649), it is located in the Taiji Hall of Chang'an.

Li Zhi reigned for 34 years, died in the first year of Hongdao (683), and was buried in Qianling, known as the Emperor the Great, and the temple name Gaozong.

In ancient China, the primogeniture inheritance system was implemented, and Li Zhi was born to the empress, and he had a great advantage in status. There is also the eldest grandson Wuji, who supports them.

Li Shimin's son, Li Zhi, is the crown prince.

[because he himself is kind, low-key, and frugal].
