Wu Dejiu (AD 626) on the fourth day of June, Li Shimin staged a coup in Xuanwumen, successfully killing Crown Prince Li Jian and King Li Yuanji of Qi, and then forced Li Yuan to relinquish power.

Therefore, with Li Shimin's personality, he will certainly make full preparations, and with his ability, he can do this.

Although Li Yuan is not as good as Li Shimin, Li Yuan is not a confused emperor. The contradiction between the prince and the king of Qin has long been made public. Li Yuan should have predicted that judgment Day would surely come.
when he learned that the Prince Group was going to kill him, Li Shimin brought in all trusted aides and generals to discuss countermeasures. There were 2, 000 people in the Prince Group, while Li Shimin had only 800. If he wanted to win, he had to be taken by surprise. Li Shimin first went to Li Yuana to snitch, saying that Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji did things in the harem and Li Yuan's imperial concubine, and then Li Shimin said the prince wanted to kill him.
