When Li Yuanji stepped into Liangyi Hall, he got his answer.
The person was not killed by Li Yuan, but by Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin.
Inside the Liangyi Hall.
Li Yuangao was sitting on the throne that belonged to him alone, his eyes were filled with tears, the red bloodshot threads in his eyeballs were clearly visible, and the number of white hairs on his head had nearly doubled.
The eucalyptus table in front of me is still stable, but the things on the eucalyptus table have become scattered.
Only the seal, which symbolizes the imperial power, is firmly in the center of the eucalyptus.
The box on the seal has been broken into several pieces. The seal is clearly hanging in front of people, and the buttons on it are clearly visible.
Li Jiancheng stood under Li Yuan, his eyes were bloodshot and his expression was depressed. The military crown on his head was tilted to one side. The red robe on his body was stained with blood, and the sword in his hand was dripping with blood.
Li Shimin stood on the other side of Li Jiancheng, his eyes were bloodshot. Although his expression was also very depressed, he was better than Li Jiancheng. His white robe with embroidered insignia was covered with blood, like drops of blood.
Mei, there are three or four cuts on the horizontal knife in her hand, and blood is dripping from it.
"Hehehe...Sanhu, you come too..."
Li Yuan saw Li Yuanji and sneered sadly.
Li Yuanji didn't wait for Li Yuan to finish what he said, and shouted angrily, "Li, bah, Li Jiancheng, Li Shimin, what are you doing with your swords in hand, are you going to hurt your father?"
At this point, Li Yuanji looked furious, glanced at Liu Jun, and scolded, "Why are you still standing there? Why don't you call Qianniu to protect you?!"
Liu Jun fell to the ground, with a grimace on his face and said nothing. Li Yuanji rushed to Li Yuan with a golden sword, blocking Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin, and shouted sharply: "Don't put down the sword yet!"
Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin put down their weapons happily as if they were relieved.
In the past few days, under the pressure of Li Yuan, they had killed many people, and they were so exhausted that they were exhausted.
Even so, Li Yuan still didn't let them go and still forced them to kill people.
Kill those who are close to them, kill those who are related to them.
Li Yuan is like a Dr. Eagle who tortures and destroys them in this way.
The appearance of Li Yuanji relieved them.
As for Li Yuanji's stern and fearful shouting, they didn't care at all, let alone mind it.
I was even a little lucky that Li Yuanji could help them out when they were about to lose their strength.
Li Yuan looked at his fourth son who was blocking his body and yelling at his eldest son and second son in fear. He felt as if there was a stone in his throat. He opened his mouth several times but could not say a word.
silent
He just wanted to say, ‘Sanhu, you are here to grab the jade seal too’.
But before he could say anything, he was blocked by his fourth son.
The fourth son stood in front of the eldest son and the second son again, as if he was determined to protect him to the death. He really couldn't help treating the fourth son the same way he treated his eldest son and second son.
"Yuanji, don't be nervous, these two traitors don't dare to hurt me yet."
Li Yuan tried his best to calm down and said the softest words in recent days.
Li Yuanji stared and looked at Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin fiercely, "That's not possible. Even if they dare not hurt their father, they cannot stand in front of him with weapons."
Li Yuan instantly felt that his heart, which had been cold for several days, had a touch of warmth, and his eyes looking at Li Yuanji became much softer.
When his eyes fell on Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin, they became cold again.
"Look at Yuanji, then look at you!"
Li Yuan shouted coldly, "Yuanji was right when he scolded you before. There is no family affection in your eyes anymore. You only care about the place where I sit."
"Peng!"
Li Yuan smashed the jade seal forward, not caring whether it would be broken or not, and shouted: "Now! I'll give it to you! Come up and get it! Whoever gets it first, I will pass the position to whoever gets it first, and I will never break my promise!"
Don’t worry, after you get the jade seal, I will immediately abdicate and hand over all the power to you. I will learn from Taigong Liu and be an obedient emperor!"
When Li Yuanji heard Li Yuan's words, he almost spit out a mouthful of blood.
Li Yuan is really tough, and he dares to say such things.
Doesn't he know that if he says this too often, it will come true?
When he entered the door just now, he sensed something was wrong, so he spoke quickly without giving Li Yuan a chance to attack him.
But he didn't expect it would be so bad.
Li Yuan was actually so angry that he spoke indiscriminately.
When Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin heard Li Yuan's words, they stood there in shock, not daring to move.
Li Yuan's words were sincere and could not be false, but they did not dare to move.
"You have worked hard to fight for it and snatch it. Now I will give it to you. Why don't you want it?"
Seeing that Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin were motionless, Li Yuan touched the jade seal again without feeling distressed and continued to ask questions.
Li Yuanji felt very distressed when he heard Li Yuan banging the jade seal.
Although this thing is just a symbolic object for the powerful Li Yuan, it is still a high-quality jade, the kind that is priceless.
If it gets damaged, its value will be greatly reduced.
Moreover, as the first seal of the Tang Dynasty, this thing has immeasurable inheritance value.
"My son, I know I was wrong."
Li Jiancheng admitted his mistake with a hoarse voice.
Like a crazy lion, Li Yuan suddenly stood up and roared loudly, "When you were raising private soldiers, did you ever think that you were wrong?
You are the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty! The crown prince of the Tang Dynasty!
All the soldiers and horses in the Tang Dynasty can be used by you. How many soldiers and horses do you want, and you go to raise private soldiers?"
Li Yuanji glanced at Li Jiancheng and sighed in his heart.
Although Li Yuan's words are a little exaggerated, they are not wrong.
As the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, Li Jiancheng had great righteousness and was nominally qualified to mobilize all the troops of the Tang Dynasty.
Even if he, Li Shimin, with Li Yuan's connivance, could ignore this kind of justice.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Others cannot.
Li Jiancheng could not call upon the generals and troops of his own house and Li Shimin's house, but he could call on the generals and troops of others.
Li Jiancheng can call upon the generals, soldiers and horses under the command of Duke Dou Gui of Zan, Ren Gui, the general manager of Xuzhou, Li Yi, King of Yan, Xinggui, the public security officer of Liang State, etc.
Li Yi, An Xinggui and others may disobey Li Jiancheng's orders.
But Dou Gui, Ren Gui and others were unequivocal supporters of Li Jiancheng. Even if they criticized Li Jiancheng's orders, they would implement them to the end.
If Li Jiancheng wants soldiers or generals, he only needs to say hello, and they will immediately select a group of elites and send them to Li Jiancheng's hands.
Li Jiancheng clearly had countless avenues to explore, but he chose rugged, winding and dangerous paths.
Li Yuanji could feel that Li Yuan didn't care at all whether or how many soldiers and horses Li Jiancheng raised.
After all, the number of soldiers and horses maintained in Li Shimin's mansion has exceeded 20,000, and they are still fed by the salary issued from the treasury. Li Yuan did not say anything.
He himself, without even saying hello to Li Yuan, gathered together six Tongjunfus and 18,000 elites, and also set up a Tongjunfu reserve camp, which was fed by salaries distributed from the treasury. Li Yuan
Didn't say anything.
If Li Yuan cared about this, the troops in his and Li Shimin's mansion would not be as developed as they are now.
After all, according to etiquette and law, the number of soldiers and horses that can be maintained in princes like him and Li Shimin is not allowed to exceed 2,000.
What Li Yuan cares about is that Li Jiancheng left the Tongtian Avenue and took the small road instead.
What Li Yuan cares about is Li Jiancheng's secret purpose of raising private soldiers.
As the heir to an empire, acting like a nobody and being secretive is undoubtedly unqualified.
"It's so stupid, so stupid!"
Li Yuan cursed angrily.
Li Jiancheng gritted his teeth and lowered his head, saying no more words.
Li Yuan had no intention of letting him go, and continued to stare at him and cursed: "If Yang Wenqian is also out of your control! You will look even stupider!"
Li Jiancheng's body trembled uncontrollably.
He understood what Li Yuan meant.
Li Yuanji also understood the meaning of Li Yuan's words.
As a prince, it already seems very stupid to act like a nobody and do it secretly.
It would be even more stupid if he couldn't control the people who helped him do these things.
Er Zhuhuan and Qiao Gongshan are no longer under his control.
If Yang Wenqian also escapes his control, then he will lose everything.
"And you, he still knows how to admit his mistakes, but you can't even admit your mistakes?!"
When Li Yuan had finished scolding Li Jiancheng, he turned around and scolded Li Shimin.
Li Shimin said with a deep look: "My son is right, why should I admit it?"
Li Yuan became even more annoyed, "You sent someone to assassinate me, and you still say you are right? Do you know that if you were not my son, everyone in your palace would have been executed long ago!"
Li Shimin said in a deep voice: "Even if I have great courage, I would not dare to send someone to assassinate my father. This matter is definitely not my fault. I ask my father to investigate clearly!"
Li Yuan angrily rebuked: "How dare you deny something that has solid evidence?"
Li Shimin solemnly said: "This matter was framed by someone, and the evidence was also forged."
Li Yuan stared straight in the eyes and shouted angrily, "Okay, okay, he is so stupid. You will never admit your mistakes or repent! You are really my good sons!"
Li Shimin didn't say anything anymore.
I don’t know whether the person who framed him was clever, or whether Li Yuan wanted to beat him up and pretended to be ignorant.
Anyway, Li Yuan has already determined that he sent people to do the Xianchunmen assassination. He has explained it countless times and begged Li Yuan to investigate, but Li Yuan remains unmoved.
It's useless for him to talk too much.
"I heard that there is a girl in your palace who is good at playing the piano. Go and cut off her hands and come to see me. The horse in your palace is still alive after being hit by four arrows. I want to know what it has.
What's so special about it is that you go cut off its head and come to see me."
Li Yuan began to force Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin to kill them again.
If Li Yuan refuses to convince his son with words, he can only coerce his son into submission.
He would not do anything to hurt his son, but he could still use the bones of others or other things to force his son to admit his mistakes and bow his head.
This is a common trick used by all the wealthy people in this era.
If you can't bear to hurt your heirs, you can use the servants around your heirs and your favorite things to educate your heirs.
Cold-blooded, ruthless, cruel, and unreasonable.
Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin were trembling.
It wasn't fear, but Li Yuan's knife stabbed their hearts.
The child in Li Jiancheng's house who was good at playing the piano met Li Jiancheng's preferences in almost all conditions except that she had no heirs. Li Jiancheng doted on her very much.
The Quanmao Gun in Li Shimin's house was one of his most beloved horses. During the previous battle against Liu Heitai, he was hit by four arrows, but he still drove him on the battlefield.
He loves it far more than most children in his house.
Li Yuan now asked them to kill him, but they really couldn't do it. They felt the deep devastation from the depths of their hearts.
"It's okay if you don't want to go, then I will send people to kill Wang Gui first and then Du Yan."
Li Yuan smiled coldly.
Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin's hearts tugged.
The same is true for Li Yuanji. He finally realized what it means to have great power.
It was a feeling of ‘everyone under me is an ant’.
What about Wang Gui, what about Du Yan, what about being talented, what about being capable?
Kill as you say, without mercy or mercy.
If Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin cannot completely defeat Li Yuan and play the role of good sons, the names of Wei Zheng, Pei Ju, Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, etc. will most likely be called out by Li Yuan.
It's no wonder that the clan members and officials in Chang'an City were so flustered that they wanted him to come to the palace to see him no matter what.
If he were not Li Yuan's legitimate son, he would be panicked.
Because no one can predict whether Li Yuan's sword will fall on his head for no reason at the next moment.
Li Yuanji always felt that Li Yuan's emperor was incompetent in the past, but he discovered it now.
It's not that Li Yuan is incompetent, but that he has a son and everything is ready, so there is no need to do everything personally.
"Father! What's wrong with Du Yan?"
Li Shimin raised his head and looked directly at Li Yuan for questioning.
Li Yuan was happy. There was no trace of warmth in his smile, but instead it was full of chills. "What's wrong with Du Yan? That's a good question! Do you think no one could find out when you secretly sent Yu Chigong and Du Yan to contact Er Zhuhuan and Qiao Gongshan?" ?
Do you know that Er Zhuhuan and Qiao Gongshan, with the knife on their necks, not only clearly explained the matter of your eldest brother raising private soldiers, but also the matter of you sending people to contact them? "
Li Shimin shrank. He obviously did not expect that Er Zhuhuan and Qiao Gongshan would betray him, nor did he expect that Er Zhuhuan would betray Yuchi Gong because of their close friendship.
Li Yuan was completely uneasy about playing tricks and actually interrogated the whistleblower.
Li Jiancheng gritted his teeth, held back the anger in his stomach, and took a deep look at Li Shimin.
The sudden back-stabbing of Er Zhuhuan and Qiao Gongshan was indeed related to his good second brother.
"Now, do you want to ask Du Yan what's wrong?"
Li Yuan asked with aggressive eyes.
Li Shimin was in a bad mood and could not look at Li Yuan, so he could only look at Li Yuanji secretly.
The same is true for Li Jiancheng.
'Fourth brother! Help! Only you can help us!'
Li Yuanji raised his head and looked at the algae roof, thinking to himself that the algae roof of Liangyi Palace today is particularly beautiful. It would be better if he could whistle.
