    The Prince's East Palace is heavily guarded.  ©°©´

    This is now the place where Li Chengqian is imprisoned.  Because Li Chengqian rebelled, Li Shimin suppressed his rebellion. Before he could deal with Li Chengqian, he was so angry that he suffered a stroke and ignored the government affairs.  In this case, Changsun Wuji supported Li Zhi, let him sit on the throne of prince, let him ascend the throne and become emperor, and when he caught up with Li Ke, he sent troops to Chang'an.  Therefore, Li Chengqian's rebellion was not dealt with in time, and Changsun Wuji just imprisoned him in the East Palace.  As for the generals who followed Li Chengqian in the rebellion, they were not dealt with in time. For example, Hou Junji was reused by Li Zhi and led his troops to resist Li Ke's army. Other generals were also pardoned and they became part of the fight against Li Ke's army.

    It was already dark that day, and the prince's study was filled with the smell of alcohol.  Since being imprisoned in the Prince's Mansion, Li Chengqian knew what his outcome would be, so he drank all day long, getting himself drunk.  The dim light slowly moved outside the study door, and with a "squeak" sound, the study door opened.  Two chamberlains serving Li Chengqian walked into the study.

    "Your Highness - it's time to eat!" the chamberlain said softly.

    "Wine - the lonely king wants to drink, what?" Li Chengqian fell on the chair and said drunkenly.  His eyes lost their light and his face turned frighteningly red.

    "Your Highness - you can't drink any more?" the chamberlain persuaded in a low voice.

    They were all servants of Li Chengqian when he entered the East Palace. They had followed Li Chengqian for more than ten years. Only the old man who followed Li Chengqian dared to say this.

    "Assholes - are you rebelling? Haha - you, okay, now even you don't take Gu Gu in your eyes -" Li Chengqian laughed wildly and cursed, "Get out - get out -"

    "Your Highness - the Northern King's army has arrived at the city - you will be hurt if you drink so much -" the chamberlain said calmly, and then exited the study.

    The study room fell into darkness again, and Li Chengqian was in a daze.  "Really? -" After a while, he sighed faintly, "Li Ke, you are finally here - haha, I knew that this day would come sooner or later, but now it is not me who is facing you, but  It's Li Zhi, how can you be someone who has lived under others for a long time? Very early on, Gu knew that you would take this road sooner or later. Because we are the same kind of people, I understand what you are thinking. This is not¡ª  ¡ªDidn¡¯t I also take this path? It¡¯s just that my luck is not as good as yours, my ability is not as strong as yours, and I didn¡¯t do it¡ª¡ª¡±

    Li Chengqian suddenly became calm, his voice seemed pale and desolate.

    In the dark study room, you can see his eyes are bright.  He was as drunk as he was just now, and he was clearly a wise crown prince.

    At this time, Li Chengqian was sober.

    In fact, he has always been sober, but he just pretended to be confused in front of Changsun Wuji.

    Because he knew that without Li Ke's bravery and Li Tai's talent, what would he have?  Nothing at all.  The only thing he has is an uncle who is overjoyed when he sees his cowardice.  Therefore, he learned to play dumb, learned to give up his own abilities, and became a person who was at the mercy of others.  What is the purpose of doing this?  The throne is naturally the position of the emperor.  Because he knew very well that his uncle, Changsun Wuji, was obsessed with how powerful he was. He was definitely a powerful minister. Only by giving up his own abilities and fully trusting and relying on him could he help him get the throne.

    Li Chengqian couldn't help but sigh.

    "However, he still made a wrong step. He couldn't hold it back because he had had enough of Changsun Wuji's manipulation.

    Therefore, after Changsun Wuji left Chang'an, he listened to the advice of the generals and Hou Junji, and wanted to use their means to obtain the throne, so he launched a coup in Ganquan Palace. However, he did not expect that his sixth rate in the East Palace was too cowardly.  Only when 6,000 people were defeated by 2,000 Qianniu Guards did they lose the opportunity to be rescued by Li Xianzhong who came with his troops, causing his plan to fail.

    However, Li Chengqian didn¡¯t regret it at all. What he regretted was why he didn¡¯t fight for it himself, but wanted to obtain the throne through other people¡¯s means?  If you fight for it yourself, why would you have the opportunity today?  Yes, I am not a person who is manipulated by others at all. Otherwise, why would I plan a rebellion after Changsun Wuji left Chang'an?  Don't you want to get the throne because of him and be at his mercy?

    In the quiet study room, Li Chengqian had tears in his eyes unknowingly.

    "Li Ke¡ª¡ª" Li Chengqian whispered, "You will get the throne, but I don't know what you will do with Changsun Wuji after you ascend the throne?" Then he laughed and said, "You will definitely not be like Gu.  Well - you will kill him. Because everything you have is achieved by your own efforts, you don't need anything -"

    After laughing, Li Chengqian climbed on the table and fell into a deep sleep.

    At this time, suddenly outside the studyA dark shadow flashed.

    Under the dim light of the corridor, it was vaguely possible to see that he was the eunuch who had just advised Li Chengqian.

    I saw him hurriedly leaving the East Palace and heading towards Liangyi Hall.

    Liangyi Hall, Li Shimin often handled government affairs at this time.

    But now, because Li Ke¡¯s army is outside the city and Changsun Wuji has consolidated his power, Li Zhi becomes the defeated emperor.  Therefore, the current Liangyi Palace has become a place where he and his ministers discuss military affairs.  It was already very dark, but Changsun Wuji still did not leave, sitting quietly on the chair Li Shimin used to make.  His face was ugly, his brows were furrowed, and he seemed anxious.

    Indeed, just now, he heard someone report a terrible news to him, that is, Hou Junji committed suicide in his own house.  Hou Junji said nothing when he committed suicide, but left a letter to his daughter Hou Ruoyi.  Changsun Wuji didn't care what was written in the letter. What he cared about was who could command the 150,000 troops outside the city after Hou Junji died.  Changsun Wuji knew very well that when Hou Junji was alive, with his military talent and military qualifications, he was the only one who could lead the army against Li Ke.  Now that he is dead, who in the civil and military dynasties is still capable of fighting against Li Ke?  In fact, there are two other people, Li Xiaogong and Li Daozong.  But Changsun Wuji didn't believe these two people at all.  Especially Li Daozong, because of his son's relationship with Li Ke and his relationship with Li Ke, Changsun Wuji didn't dare to hand over the general power to him. Now he sent people to monitor him secretly to prevent him from causing any trouble.

    Over time, Changsun Wuji discovered that there was no general in the court who could fight against him. He was either too old or too reckless.  Suddenly, he realized that he seemed to have made a wrong move.  Li Zhi should not be supported to ascend the throne.  However, if Li Zhi should not be supported to ascend the throne, who should be supported?  Li Tai?  Based on Li Tai's relationship with him and supporting him to ascend the throne, does he still have a way to survive?  Besides, even if Li Tai ascends the throne, won't Li Ke rebel?  No, Li Ke would definitely rebel. Besides Emperor Taizong, who else would Li Ke be afraid of in the Tang Dynasty?  No one will be afraid.  Therefore, I can only take this step, otherwise I can only wait for death.

    Suddenly, Changsun Wuji discovered that he was very smart.  In fact, it was only now that I realized that I was stupid. I had already fallen into Li Ke's trap, but I just didn't realize it.

    Although I defeated him in court, I lost in front of everyone in the world!

    ¡°Stop¡ª¡± suddenly a voice shouted, ¡°Who are you?¡±

    The voice of the guard outside the door interrupted Changsun Wuji's thoughts.

    ¡°I am Zhang Da from the East Palace, and I am here to report the situation to Changsun Sikong¡ª¡ª¡± A eunuch shouted outside the door.

    ¡°Let him come in¡ª¡± Changsun Wuji said coldly.

    ¡°No¡ª¡± the guard outside the door shouted.

    Under the light, a chamberlain was seen walking into the Liangyi Hall in small steps.

    "Tell me - what is it that makes you come to me in the middle of the night -" Changsun Wuji asked impatiently. If it weren't for the eunuchs of the East Palace, he would probably ignore the others.  But the chamberlain of the East Palace is different. The special person Zhang Da is the spy set up by the East Palace himself, the spy he arranged around Li Chengqian.  As long as he looks for him, something will definitely happen to Li Chengqian.  And this time, it was precisely because of this eunuch news that he knew about Li Chengqian and Hou Junji's rebellion plan, and he escaped disaster.

    Zhang Da met Changsun Wuji and told Changsun Wuji everything he heard outside the study.

    Changsun Wuji¡¯s expression did not change at all after hearing this. He said to Zhang Da, ¡°Go back and continue to monitor¡ª¡ª¡±

    "Nuo" Zhang Da left.

    Seeing Zhang Da's figure disappearing from Liangyi Hall, Changsun Wuji smiled coldly and said, "Sure enough - I still missed it. Your Majesty - Changsun Wuji admires you. You are indeed powerful. It turns out that you have already  You know your son's ability, so you will appoint him as the prince, right?" Changsun Wuji sighed lightly, "It's just that Li Chengqian was anxious enough, and after all, he met another Li Ke who was more like you - he was  Will you be forced to rebel? Is this your fate?" After Changsun Wuji finished speaking, he glanced at Concubine Yang's Qianqiu Palace and continued, "Haha, why aren't young slaves smart? -"
