Volume 2: The Dragons Present Chapter 315 The Wind Surges
Zhou Yu sat on the first place, looking at the people in the lobby, a pair of eyes full of wisdom jumped from time to time with a spark called wisdom: "We have successfully entered Chang'an City, but for the sake of safety, you can't relax your vigilance yet, always watch the wind and grass around you, and if you have any vision, you can also react as soon as possible and report to a certain family!" ”
"Yes!" Everyone present couldn't help but reply aloud when they heard the words.
A splendid palace was now brightly lit, and a group of well-equipped soldiers were seen patrolling with a flaming torch in one hand and a glittering weapon in the other. With such a well-guarded mansion, it is difficult for even a mosquito to take a step beyond the thunder pool.
"Big brother, I have no way back now, even the damn guy of my father, even the damn guy of my father, actually has the heart to pass the throne to Li Shimin, if it weren't for the fact that this matter happened to be discovered by Concubine Yin, so as to unite the imperial concubines who were wantonly played with by us at the beginning, I'm afraid you are no longer a noble prince!" Wearing a golden robe, his black hair was raised high by a golden crown, his heavy eyebrows were wrinkled high at the moment to form a huge Sichuan character in front of his forehead, and a pair of Tongling-like big eyes were full of anger, and he said in a dissatisfied tone to a soft and weak man not far in front of him.
Li Jiancheng saw Li Yuanji, who had an extremely hideous expression, and probed his breath helplessly, where did he not know that what the other party said was the truth, his right-hand men were not ruthlessly sent to Yunzhou by his father for various reasons, and now there are really few people available around him.
"Big brother, do you remember this guy Dazhi?" Li Yuanji saw Li Jiancheng like this, a mysterious look flashed on his face, and then he walked to Li Jiancheng and asked the other party mysteriously.
Li Jiancheng couldn't help but quickly search for the information of Da Zhi in his brain, this person was in charge of the order of Chang'an City as the controller of his military power, if it weren't for the fact that his father demoted him to Yunzhou for the reason of brotherly discord, he would not be so passive in the face of his second brother Li Shimin now.
Li Yuanji looked at the eldest brother Li Jiancheng, who had a dissatisfied look on his face, and naturally knew that the other party had already guessed who this person was, and immediately whispered to the other party again, "Big brother, a certain family has falsely passed on your order to let the other party lead the soldiers and horses back to Chang'an City, and now I am afraid that he has already moved into the mansion that was arranged at the beginning!" ”
"What!" Li Jiancheng exclaimed violently when he heard this, he never thought that his younger brother would be so bold and reckless, and he didn't discuss such a big thing with him in advance, so he only knew it now.
If his father knew that he couldn't be angry again, he almost lost the crown prince's position because of this incident, if it weren't for the concubines in the palace pleading to blow the wind next to Li Yuan's pillow, the crown prince's position would probably have become Li Shimin's bag.
Li Yuanji looked at Li Jiancheng, who exclaimed, and the smile on his face was even worse: "Big brother, don't be like this, if there is no protection from the army, we will be the fish and meat in the hands of the second brother Li Shimin, just take this opportunity to lure him to the palace and kill him, and then force Lao Zamao to abdicate and make way for Xian!" ”
Li Jiancheng and everyone in the hall looked at Li Yuanji, the king of Qi who looked crazy to the extreme, and one by one they couldn't help but have numb scalps and cold limbs, as if they had fallen into an ice cave.
A man dressed as a literati, his long black hair was wrapped in a black official hat, a pair of pitch-black straight eyebrows grew on a upright face, Danfeng eyes full of wisdom, a tall nose bridge, and thick lips opened slightly, "My lord, it is best to kill Li Shimin, the king of Qin, when the news of Dazhi does not come out, if not, once the other party has a defense, it may be even more difficult to kill it when the time comes, after all, the other party is like a cloud!" "I can't help it
thought of Qin Qiong, Qin Shubao, Cheng Bitingjin, Xu Shiji and others.
Li Jiancheng saw that his henchman Wei Zheng also agreed with the third brother Li Yuanji's strategy, and his originally hesitant mentality became firm: "Since you all agree that a certain family will kill the second brother Li Shimin, we have to come up with a foolproof strategy!" ”
"What's so difficult about this, my lord, now the Turks are attacking my lord is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, as long as you tell Li Shimin that he will go to Kunming Chi to see off His Royal Highness when the time comes, he will be assassinated, as for those subordinates of the Qin Palace, they are now sent to the three highnesses, and after the matter is successful, they will all be buried alive, and tell Your Majesty that the King of Qin was assassinated, please abdicate and let Xian, this matter will be done!" Wei Zheng spoke again at the moment when Li Jiancheng's words fell.
Everyone present couldn't help but shudder when they heard this, they never thought that Wei Zheng, who was usually taciturn, would be so ruthless to the enemy when he encountered something.
There was a man in the crowd who had a strange look in his eyes after Wei Zheng's words, and then he carefully hid it, lowering his head for fear that others would notice.
"Okay, just according to what Wei Zheng said!" Li Jiancheng's eyes burst out with a bright light at this moment, obviously extremely satisfied with Wei Zheng's strategy, and gave orders to everyone present, and soon everyone disappeared into the main hall.
At this time, the entire hall became empty, leaving only the crown prince Li Jiancheng sitting alone on the chair, looking in the direction of the Qin Palace, muttering, "My good brother, a certain family originally didn't want to kill you, but now your reputation is unparalleled, and your father is even more fond of you, and he can only sacrifice you for the prosperity of the empire!" As he spoke, the fierce light in his eyes flashed, and the temperature around him suddenly dropped by several degrees.
When Wang Hui left the prince's mansion, he quickly got into the carriage and walked all the way to his mansion, and after reaching a dim alleyway, he asked the coachman to confirm that no one was following him and drove to the Qin prince's mansion.
Originally, Li Shimin was already ready to sleep, and when he heard that he had bought Li Jiancheng's side of the fine work coming, a solemn look flashed in his eyes, obviously something big was about to happen, regardless of the menacing sleepiness, he couldn't even care about his shoes, and came to the lobby barefoot and looked at Wang Hui with his back to him, "Brother Wang, I don't know what's the important thing when I come here so late?" ”
Wang Hui was originally worried about disturbing the rest of King Qin, for fear that the other party would be dissatisfied, but now when he heard the sound of the other party bathing in the spring breeze, he turned to look at the disheveled Li Shimin, and a different color flashed on his face: "The lord is not good, tonight Li Jiancheng conspired with Li Yuanji and others to assassinate you in Kunming Pool a few days later!" ”
When Li Shimin, the king of Qin, heard this, his face changed greatly, and he never thought that his brother would be so ruthless, and he didn't care about the slightest brotherly affection for the throne.
"Brother Wang, what you said is true?" He asked in a somewhat uncertain tone, a pair of eyes full of wisdom were staring at each other for a moment, and if there was any different color, it would be difficult to escape.
In the face of Li Shimin's direct gaze, Wang Hui couldn't help swallowing his saliva, and he knew in his heart that there could be no dodge in his eyes at this moment, if not, it would be suspected by the lord that it was obviously true, and wouldn't it be sad to lose his life when the time came, "The lord dares to swear by his life, and if what he said is a little false, he will be hit by five thunders and will not be able to die!" ”
Li Shimin looked at Wang Hui, who had sworn an oath, and the doubt in his heart had disappeared, and he was confused for a while, and waved his hand to the other party to signal to leave.
Hearing this, Wang Hui's face remained unchanged, and he bowed his hand respectfully towards Li Shimin, the king of Qin, and walked towards the outside of the mansion without slowness.
When Li Shimin saw Wang Hui leaving, the irritability in his heart became even more tyrannical, and he immediately shouted to the guards outside the mansion: "Song Huaiming, quickly bring the eldest grandson Wuji to His Royal Highness."
。 ”
The guard named Song Huaiming received the order and disappeared into the dark night.
As time passed, minute by minute, and I saw a man dressed as a civil servant walking quickly in front of Li Shimin: "The lord's family is late, and I hope to forgive my sins!" ”
Li Shimin looked at the eldest grandson Wuji who was kneeling on the ground, and hurriedly got up and helped him up, and then repeated the words Wang Hui said to the other party word for word: "What should the eldest grandson do?" ”
For Li Shimin's inquiry, the signature smile on the face of the eldest grandson Wuji remained unchanged: "My lord, I still need to recall Fang Xuanling and the others to the Qin Palace, and brainstorm to think of a reasonable solution!" ”
Hearing this, King Li Shimin nodded, obviously approving of Eldest Sun Wuji's words, "But now that Fang Xuanling and the others have been forbidden by their father to go to King Qin's Mansion, I really don't know what to do!" ”
The eldest grandson Wuji didn't know what Li Shimin meant, and he had the intention to persuade the other party to preemptively kill Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, but when he thought of the other party's character of caring for brotherhood, he couldn't say it alone, and it was only possible to persuade everyone together.
"Lord, if you let Wei Chi Jingde go and invite Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and others, if you don't want to invite them by force at that time, it's okay!" The eldest grandson Wuji persuaded Li Shimin, who was full of sadness
"It's so good, a certain family will let Wei Chi Jingde go and invite someone!" When Li Shimin heard this, he shouted loudly to the guards outside the house again, and after a while, there was a sound of hurried footsteps, only to see Song Huaiming come to the front again.
"Song Huaiming went to hand over this letter to Yu Chi Jingde, he will know what to do when he sees it!" Li Shimin handed over the written letter to Song Huaiming, and the other party carefully carried it in his arms and left in a hurry again.
Minute by minute, the silver moon was obscured by a thick layer of clouds, the moonlight in the sky had disappeared, and there were bursts of hurried footsteps outside the lobby again, only to see Yu Chi Jingde leading some people to hurriedly walk in, "King Qin!" Li Shimin, who was in the first place, clasped his hands into fists and bowed.
Li Shimin looked at Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and the others, and a fierce light flashed in their eyes and disappeared in a flash, obviously dissatisfied with the rejection of the two of them at the beginning, but when he thought that this was an extraordinary time, he asked the eldest grandson Wuji to repeat the matter to everyone present again.
"What should we do?" Li Shimin waited until the eldest grandson Wuji finished speaking, and a pair of eyes like eagles and falcons were staring at everyone for a moment, taking each other's looks into their eyes.
"My lord, I might as well strike first, kill the crown prince Li Jiancheng and the king of Qi Li Yuanji, and then let His Majesty abdicate and make way for Xian!" After the eldest grandson Wuji saw everyone on the battlefield, he was the first to walk out and say what he thought in his heart.
Li Shimin's face changed slightly when he heard this, and he didn't want to meet his brother in battle.
"Lord, we now have to follow the method of the eldest grandson Wuji, if you care about your brotherhood, when the time comes, you are really assassinated, I am afraid that there will be no good end, please consider for us, and now there is a foreign invasion, we have to deal with the matter with a thunderous momentum, otherwise we will continue to suffer from the chaos, and the victims will be the people of the world!" A middle-aged man looked at Li Shimin in front of him, clasped his hands into fists, and said in a deep voice.
"What the lord Hou Junji said is good, and I also ask the lord to kill the crown prince Li Jiancheng and the king of Qi Li Yuanji for the people of the world!" Everyone present faced the threat of death, and thought that if Li Shimin was really killed, they would really be like those ministers who stood on the wrong side in history and ended up being beheaded, so they had to kneel down to Li Shimin, who was full of hesitation... to be continued
