"Your Highness, the emperor has agreed." On the city wall of Xuanwu Gate, Hou Junji held the holy decree in his hand, strode over, his face was full of smiles, and said to Li Shimin.

"That's very good." Fang Xuanling's face showed a hint of ecstasy, and he said loudly: "Quick, read it out loud, tell Xue Wanche and the others below, let them withdraw from the army, King Qin is not to blame for the past." Throw down the heads of Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji. ”

"Yes." Hou Junji hurriedly ordered someone to read out the holy decree loudly, and the soldiers below shouted to kill a lot less, these Changlin troops were obedient to Li Jiancheng, at this time, seeing that Li Jiancheng was killed, and Li Yuan's holy decree came, where did anyone dare to attack Xuanwu Gate.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is dead, Li Shimin is the Prince, he will definitely not let us go, cut the grass and eradicate the roots, we are greatly favored by His Royal Highness the Prince, since we can't protect his life, we will protect his old and young, and leave Da Zhao." Xie Shufang said loudly.

"The world is so big, where are we going?" Xue Wanche looked at the tall Xuanwu Gate city wall in front of him and said: "The current world is Li Xin to get rid of Li Shimin, Li Xin is our enemy, will he take us in?" ”

"Although Li Xin is an enemy, he is the emperor, at this time, he needs a name, not to mention, there are two princesses in Chang'an City, and Yin Guogong, he will never watch His Royal Highness the Prince's bloodline being killed by Li Xin!" Xie Shufang said loudly: "Now I can see that sooner or later the world will still belong to Li Xin, and a person like Li Shimin who kills his brother and forces his father can also seize the world, that is a big joke." What do you think? I'm going to Datang, what about you? ”

"I am waiting for the great grace of His Royal Highness the Prince, naturally I want to protect his bloodline, if Li Xin does not allow it, then take the blood of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince back to the countryside and become an ordinary person." Xue Wanche said loudly.

"Okay, then let's go, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is benevolent and righteous, I believe there are many people who are willing to cover for us. Although Li Shimin has become the crown prince, but he, the prince, probably doesn't want to pacify the forces of all parties in a short time, and when it is calmed down, Li Xin's army will definitely have reached the doorstep, and Li Shimin will definitely have no chance to resist Li Xin's army. Uncle Xie replied.

"Let's go." Xue Wanche did what he said, he looked around him, and there were more than a thousand elite Changlin troops, these people were all loyal to Li Jiancheng, and sure enough, with Xue Wanche's order. The army left Xuanwu Gate and soon disappeared in the eyes of Li Shimin and others.

"It's finally retreated." Yu Zhining said loudly. He sat on the city wall, and finally no one attacked, and his life was saved.

"Your Highness seems to be unhappy?" Fang Xuanling was not happy when he saw Li Shimin's face, and couldn't help but ask curiously.

"I thought of what Li Jiancheng said before he died." Li Shimin frowned and said: "He said that she regretted not listening to Li Xin's words, otherwise, this situation would not have happened, which made me very uneasy." ”

"What does Your Highness mean?" Fang Xuanling's face was gloomy. His eyes were wide open, and he looked incredulous.

"Perhaps, Li Xin once persuaded him and wanted Li Jiancheng to kill me. Hehe, I'm afraid that Jin Yiwei already knew about my actions and persuaded Li Jiancheng, but it's a pity. Li Jiancheng did not follow Li Xin's advice. Li Shimin shook his head and said.

"Your Highness, Xue Wanche and they seem to have left." Fang Xuanling said with some worry: "Immediately order someone to chase and kill, and let these people run away." That is to let the tiger return to the mountain, if they submit to Li Xin, the internal situation of our dynasty will be completely exposed to Li Xin. ”

"Is it too late?" Li Shimin shook his head, pointed to the distance and said, only to see a waiter striding over in the distance, a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said: "Hou Junji, guarding the palace, Chang He, you and Mr. Fang led a group of people to the East Palace, and Yu Zhining led a part to the Qi Palace." Li Shimin didn't continue, but a trace of coldness flashed on his face.

"Yes." Fang Xuanling and the others didn't dare to slack off when they heard this, and hurriedly led a part of the people towards the East Palace and the Qi Palace. The truth of cutting grass and eradicating the roots is not only known to Fang Xuanling, but also to Li Shimin. Whatever the reason, killing his brother and forcing his father is a scandal. Even if Li Yuan made a holy decree, it would not necessarily change this fact. Moreover, Li Shimin's main task now is to comfort Li Yuan.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, Your Majesty has a decree, please ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to go to the Haichi Storm Pavilion to see you." Several chamberlains cautiously walked over, looking at the blood stains on the city wall, their faces pale.

"There is Father-in-law Lao." Li Shimin was in a trance for a while, and quickly nodded. In his heart, he was full of emotion, once upon a time, he dreamed of getting the position of the prince, and now this position is finally in his hands, for which he doesn't know how much he has paid, but today he finally succeeded. So, he tightened his armor and headed towards the pool.

And outside, the Xuanwumen incident quickly spread throughout Xindu, and there was an uproar in Xindu, this kind of thing was too shocking and terrifying, although the news came that the crown prince and the king of Qi were preparing to raise troops to rebel, but all the people in Xindu did not believe this, because in a month, Li Yuan would give up the throne, Li Jiancheng couldn't even wait for one?

In Cui's mansion, Cui Shuzhong's face was gloomy as water, and Cui Mingan also stood aside and did not speak, since he knew about the Xuanwumen incident, Cui Shuzhong knew that the plan of the Shandong family headed by the Cui family had failed, and sure enough, when the news of Xie Shufang and others retreated came, he also brought the news of the death of Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, and Cui Shuzhong suddenly knew that the general trend had gone.

"Father, Xie Shufang and the others have rushed to the East Palace and taken away the crown princess Zheng and the princess Yang of Qi. Also leaving Xindu were the children of Li Chengdao, the king of Anlu, Li Chengde, the king of Hedong, and Li Chengxun, the king of Wu'an, and the children of the king of Qi. Cui Mingan hurriedly said.

"Li Jiancheng still has a bit of a reputation in the court, and Uncle Xie can easily take these people away, which can only show that Li Shimin's ascension to the throne and succession to the throne has become a foregone conclusion." Uncle Cui sighed heavily and said, "It's a pity that it is too late for him to inherit the throne at this time, and Li Xin's army may not be long before he attacks Hebei." Time is running out for Li Shimin. ”

"Father, what should our family do now?" Cui Mingan said with some worry: "It's a pity, there are not many adult heirs around the emperor, otherwise, Li Shimin will definitely die." ”

"No, even if there are other princes, this crown prince, the throne in the future will still be Li Shimin's, because the emperor has no choice but to choose Li Shimin, otherwise, it will not be killing his brother and forcing his father, but killing his brother and killing his father. Didn't you see it, when Li Yuan knew that Li Jiancheng was dead, he didn't hesitate to issue an order to canonize Li Shimin as the crown prince? ”

"Li Yuan's unkindness to this extent is also unbelievable." Cui Mingan sighed and said, "It's ridiculous that Li Jiancheng is still so loyal to his father. ”

"Eggs can't be put in one basket, this old man still admires Dugu Huaien, the old horseman, Dugu Feng has entered Chang'an City, although he has not yet become Li Xin's woman, but it must be very soon, Dugu Huaien may die, but Dugu's family can survive." Uncle Cui thought again: "Send someone to contact Cui Yuan!" Anyway, our Cui family went out, whether it was Boling or Qinghe, they were all a branch of the Cui family, they were all Li Xin's old courtiers, as long as they said a few words, our Cui family is still a famous family. What Li Xin needs, marrying a concubine is nothing. ”

"Marrying a girl?" Cui Mingan was not calm for a while, you must know that the Kwantung family, these marriages are digested internally, Lu, Cui, Zhao, and Zheng are all married to each other, in history, there are many high-ranking officials and nobles who want to marry the daughters of the five surnamed Qiwang families, especially the Cui family, which has never been married to other families.

Now you actually want Cui's to send her daughter to Li Xin? And he took the initiative to send it, which made Cui Mingan extremely uncomfortable. I couldn't help but ask in surprise.

"If not, so what? Li Shimin is not a good thing, if he kills his own brother alone, there is nothing he can do. Uncle Cui sighed and said: "Actually, he and Li Xin are the same people, but they are different, Li Xin used to oppose the family, but after a period of time, he learned to compromise, he would use a soft knife to cut the flesh, so that the family got a lot of money at the same time, lost its foundation." The university can provide Li Xin with a steady stream of talents, reading is not the exclusive right of the family, losing the land, it is equivalent to losing the foundation of survival, with money, what can you do? ”

"What about Li Shimin?" Cui Mingan's body trembled and asked.

"Storm." Uncle Cui looked solemn and said: "Li Shimin has no time to manage these things now, and he may rely on us in a short period of time, but as long as he withstands Li Xin's attack next year, he will definitely take measures against us, he needs a large population to produce food for him and provide him with an army." Where are all these things, aren't they all in the hands of our family? Don't think that Li Shimin is a good stubble, this person is ruthless. It's just that what makes the old man feel strange is that such a person, why would Li Xin let him take the position? ”

"Father, what does that mean?" Cui Mingan was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted and looked at Cui Shuzhong with shocked eyes.

"Jin Yiwei actually knew that Li Shimin wanted to kill Li Jiancheng for a long time, and Li Jiancheng also got a reminder from Li Xin, according to reason, Li Xin should expect Li Jiancheng to succeed, after all, Li Shimin is his strong enemy." Uncle Cui shook his head and said, "Does he think that we will not cooperate with Li Shimin?" It's just that under Li Xin's oppression, we can only support Li Shimin during this time.
