Volume 3 Taihang Mountain Chapter 806 Li Shimin¡¯s Admonition

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The entire Taiji Palace inherited the palace's traditional layout of sleeping in the front and the back.  The north gate Xuanwu Gate naturally leads to the back bedroom, which is mostly a palace garden.

    When Li Yuan passed by Xuanwu Gate and glanced at the soldiers at Xuanwu Gate, he suddenly showed a hint of something wrong.

    Because the soldiers of the Xuanwu Sect are too formally equipped, their swords and guns are polished to a shiny finish, and their armors are all very neatly worn. They are not the ones they usually wear when they are on guard duty, but the ones they wear for regular battles.

    Li Yuan was just stunned, but then he was relieved. There were rumors in Chang'an that Li Chongjiu's 200,000-strong army was invading, so the Forbidden Army had stepped up their vigilance. This was of course a matter of course.

    Li Yuan immediately cleared up his doubts.  But he didn't see several soldiers standing on the city gate road, their hands clutching the handles of their swords, and sweat dripping from their foreheads.  This is very abnormal. It's cold spring. How can the soldiers sweat for no reason?

    Li Yuan drove the group forward slowly. He did not go to Tai Chi Hall first, but planned to go to Beihai Pool to change clothes first.  The prince, King Qin, and King Qi went directly to Tai Chi Hall.

    The car drove slowly. After Li Yuan entered the palace, the Imperial Guards of Bei Ya were stationed outside the Xuanwu Gate. Generally speaking, the Imperial Guards of Bei Ya could not enter the city, while the city was guarded by the Imperial Guards of Nan Ya. Therefore, those who followed Li Yuan into Beihai Pool could not do anything.  More than a hundred guards.

    "And there were only a few dozen guards accompanying the King of Qin, the Prince, and the King of Qi to the Taiji Palace. They were all guards belonging to each palace.

    Li Yuan's three sons all rode horses. This was also the consistent martial style of the Tang Dynasty. They disdained the Southern Dynasty officials who rode in cars, let alone later generations who used people and animals to ride in sedan chairs.

    Qin Wang Li Shimin looked calm at this moment.  He did not look back at the faces of Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji.  Yang Wenqian's change was a strategy he had carefully laid out for many years, followed by Zhu Huan.  Wei Ting's bribery, as well as many insiders within the East Palace.

    From the beginning of the incident to later.  Li Yuan's anger and Li Jiancheng's reaction were both within his expectations.  If Li Jiancheng could have listened to Wei Ting and defended Chang'an with his own troops, then Li Jiancheng's end would have come.

    When Li Jiancheng is defeated, it is still unclear whether his life can be protected, but the East Palace reserve position will definitely not be saved.  When the time comes, he can legitimately be promoted from the King of Qin to the crown prince. Whether it is in terms of seniority or his own ability and military exploits, this position will be occupied by him sooner or later.

    As long as then.  Li Shimin believed that the entire Li Tang Dynasty was integrated under him, winning over the Guanlong clan, and then using the power of Guanxi to fight against Li Chongjiu's current power. It was not impossible to fight.  By then, as long as Li Chongjiu made a mistake and suffered two or three defeats when attacking the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin would be confident that he would have the power to turn the entire situation over.  Even if Zhao cannot be destroyed, there is no problem in separatist rule.

    It¡¯s a pity that in the end Yu Zhining didn¡¯t watch Qiao Gongshan and Qiao Gongshan escape.  Incredibly, he actually killed dozens of his cronies who were guarding the ship by himself, and finally appeared in front of Li Jiancheng successfully.  He even testified in front of Li Yuan to exonerate Li Jiancheng.

    Li Jiancheng did not establish himself in Chang'an City, but went to the Hot Spring Palace to plead guilty to Li Yuan.  Even the assassin sent by Yu Zhining to assassinate Yu Wenying was destroyed halfway.  Li Shimin knew who the real leader behind all this was.  Who else besides Li Chongjiu.

    After Li Shimin heard about it, he thought to himself, Li Chongjiu, Li Chongjiu, you are so afraid of me, you have used so many tricks to not let me inherit the throne.

    Li Yuan is a smart man after the incident. After the initial anger, after tracing the whole story, he will definitely investigate himself the most afterwards.  Although Li Shimin knew that Li Yuan would not touch him, his trust in him was completely lost. In the future, he would be marginalized forever in the Tang Dynasty.

    Li Yuan did not trust him, Li Jiancheng suppressed him, and Li Chongjiu plotted against him. A series of blows made Li Shimin not discouraged, but strengthened his determination.  Today he was ready to make a desperate move. Although Li Chongjiu forced himself to be very dangerous, even if the military remonstrance was successful, the Tang Dynasty would be severely damaged because of this incident.

    But Li Shimin will never remain unknown and die in ostracism. He would rather die in silence than die in silence.

    Li Shimin's eyes flashed with cold light, his hand pressed on the long sword, Li Yuanji, who had been observing Li Shimin, couldn't help but be surprised.  Li Yuanji was in a very uneasy mood today because before yesterday he secretly received a letter from the general Samurai Xun who was captured by Zhao.

    When he was stationed in Jinyang, the warrior Xun was his general. The two had an old relationship, so they had many contacts.  The sudden letter from Samurai Yu surprised him.

    The warrior Xun informed Li Yuanji and was investigated by the secret spies of the Zhao State. Li Shimin was likely to admonish him and the prince at Xuanwumen, and then forced Li Yuan to abdicate, asking him to immediately inform Li Yuan and Li Jiancheng, so that they could take precautions immediately.

    Li YuanjiAfter receiving the letter, of course he regarded it as a matter of course that the warrior Yu was now a prisoner of the Zhao people, but he kindly reminded himself.  Li Yuanji originally wanted to burn the letter, but after thinking about it, he went to Prince Li Jiancheng, handed the letter to him, and asked him what he meant.

    Who would have thought that Li Jiancheng didn't even read the letter after reading it, he tore it into pieces, and even scolded Li Yuanji. He was so confused. This was clearly either Li Chongjiu's plan to alienate him, or he had set a trap for himself to fall into.  If he reported this matter to Li Yuan and instead said that the prince was not on good terms with his brothers, it would make his current situation worse and he would be severely punished.

    After Li Yuanji heard what Li Jiancheng said, of course he did not dare to mention it again.

    Now the three brothers have their own thoughts. After entering the Xuanwu Gate a hundred steps, there are two small lakes in front of and to the left and right, and beside the lake is the Lake Lining Palace.

    Suddenly there was a rumble from the Xuanwu Gate behind them. Everyone turned around, only to see that the Xuanwu Gate was closing.

    At this moment, the expressions of both the prince and King Qi changed.  The Xuanwu Gate closed for no reason during the day, which was absolutely abnormal.  At this moment, outside the Xuanwu Gate, the Beiya Forbidden Army stationed outside saw that the gate was rumbling shut, and they all noticed something unusual.

    A general of the Beiya Imperial Guards shouted: "It's not yet night, how can the palace gate be closed without permission during the day?"

    No one at the door answered. The Nanya imperial guards guarding the palace door pushed hard and the palace door closed inch by inch.  Thousands of Beiya Imperial Guards stationed at the gate rushed forward one after another when they saw that something was going wrong.

    But what greeted them was a hail of arrows!

    A row of crossbowmen stood on the city tower, shooting down the dozen or so people who came towards them.  However, the Beiya Imperial Guards were responsible for protecting the royal family. How could they shrink back due to the arrow attack? Instead, they rushed forward when they were stopped by the tower.

    "Prince, the King of Qi has rebelled and wants to murder Your Majesty! The troops are not allowed to move without orders, and those who disobey orders will be killed!" Chang He, the guard of Xuanwu Gate, stood on the tower and shouted loudly.

    The Beiya Imperial Guards were all stunned when they heard this, but when they saw Chang He announcing loudly, everyone was suspicious.

    Just after a moment of hesitation, the Xuanwu Gate gradually closed.

    "Don't listen to them." A confidant general in the Forbidden Army went to grab the door and held on for the last moment before the door closed. However, when the opponent fell to the ground with bloodshed, someone actually hacked him out and then killed Xuanwu.  The door was forcibly closed, and thousands of Beiya Imperial Guards were blocked from the door.

    After the Xuanwu Gate closed, Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji were in panic.

    After hearing Chang He's words that Prince Qi had rebelled and wanted to murder His Majesty, Li Jiancheng was so frightened that he almost fell off his horse. However, Li Shimin slowly pulled out his sword and led the guards of Prince Qin's palace to stop him in the direction of Xuanwu Gate.  .

    At this time, there was a loud killing sound on both sides of Linhu Palace, but they saw the generals of Tiance Mansion Liu Shili, Gongsun Wuda, Dugu Yanyun, Du Junchuo, Zheng Rentai, Li Mengchang, Zhang Shigui and others leading hundreds of troops from Prince Qin's Mansion.  , came out from near Xuanwu Gate and attacked Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji.

    At this moment, Li Yuanji grabbed Li Jiancheng's horse and said, "Prince, King Qin is really planning to rebel. Let's run away!"

    "Escape?" Li Jiancheng asked, stunned, "Where are we fleeing to?"

    "Li Yuanji would not have been able to answer normally, but today he was reminded by Samurai Xun, so he drafted it early.

    The Chengqian Hall in the West Palace is the residence of Li Shimin, and you must not go here. The east gate is the East Palace of the Prince. In the East Palace, there are the Sixth Command of the East Palace and more than 2,000 troops. Led by Xie Shufang, Li Jiancheng came to see Li Yuan this time. The Sixth Command of the East Palace  They all stay in the mansion, but this is also where the most ambushes are.

    Only the Wude Hall in the south is slightly better. This is the residence of King Qi in the palace. Li Yuanji is not only very familiar with this place, but also has dozens of guards from Prince Qi's palace guarding the palace.

    At that moment Li Yuanji said: "Prince, let's go to Wude Hall."

    Li Jiancheng¡¯s general Feng Li led dozens of East Palace guards and said: ¡°The prince will go first, I will hold the King of Qin here for a while.¡± Li Yuanji¡¯s general Yu Wenbao also got Li Yuanji¡¯s order and turned back to fight.

    Li Shimin, who was riding a horse, just snorted coldly when he saw these soldiers and crab generals coming to kill him. At that moment, the general of the Prince of Qin's Palace led hundreds of elite guards of the Prince of Qin's Palace to fight out.

    Li Shimin led a dozen light cavalry to bypass the intercepting troops and chased Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji alone.

    On the horse road in the palace, Li Shimin galloped and soon caught up with Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, looking at the two men's backs as they fled in a hurry.

    Li Shimin couldn't help but thought, if Li Yuan was willing to pass the throne to him, how would he be today if he didn't have an orderly relationship? If Li Jiancheng knew he was incompetent and was willing to give up his position as the prince, why would he be today? If Li Yuanji hadn't stood by the prince's side.  , Who are they to persecute themselves? They are asking for all this.

    Thinking of thisLi Shimin opened his bow, took an arrow, and shot Li Jiancheng in the back of his heart!

    In Beihai Pool, Li Yuan had just finished changing, when he heard the sound of killing and the rumble of horse hooves outside the wall.

    When Li Yuan saw it, he immediately shouted to the palace supervisor Chen Fu: "What's happening outside, go and see it immediately!"

    Chen Fu agreed and immediately ran out.

    "Quick, put on my armor."

    Li Yuan, who had been in the army for many years, immediately knew that there must be a mutiny in the palace.

    At this time, Pei Ji, Xiao Yu, Chen Shuda, Feng Deyi, Feng Lun, Dou Dan, Yan Shigu and other ministers were asking for an audience outside the palace at the same time.  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature. The novels will be better and updated faster!
