Liu Jun did not dare to hesitate at all when facing Li Yuan's instructions. After respectfully agreeing, he trotted to greet people outside the palace.
The reason why he ran outside the palace to greet people was because Li Yuan did not allow outsiders to enter the palace yet.
Although this prohibition has been broken to some extent after Li Shimin and Li Yuanji entered the palace one after another, just because Li Shimin and Li Yuanji were able to break Li Yuan's prohibition does not mean that others can also break it.
Li Shimin and Li Yuanji were not only the direct sons of Li Yuan, but also the princes of the powerful faction of the Tang Dynasty.
They are qualified to challenge the ban set by Li Yuan.
If other people cannot reach the level of the two of them in terms of identity, status, strength, reputation, etc., they are not qualified to challenge Li Yuan, nor are they worthy of challenging him.
If you have to challenge, the end will be miserable.
Liu Jun left the Ganlu Hall and muttered a few words to General Youbeishenfu outside the palace. General Youbeishenfu appeared in the hall with two thousand-year-old soldiers and four soldiers.
After bowing to Li Jiancheng and saying "I'm sorry," he captured Li Jiancheng on the spot and escorted him away.
Li Jiancheng wanted to explain to Li Yuan several times and ask for a chance to survive, but Li Yuanli ignored him. He just picked up a sword again and used it on several richly dressed ladies kneeling on one side of the hall.
Gestures.
Maybe he felt sorry for not killing Li Jiancheng, so he wanted to practice with some noble ladies.
Li Yuanji knew several noble ladies, and one of them was Concubine Yin De, who was deeply loved by Li Yuan.
She is very delicate in appearance and extremely beautiful in appearance. She is truly a great beauty.
Unfortunately, her mouth was blocked and she couldn't make too many sounds. Faced with Li Yuan gesticulating left and right in front of her with a sharp sword, she could only make a whining sound with a pleading look on her face.
After Li Yuan gestured in front of her for a long time, he suddenly waved his sword.
Seeing that the beauty was about to be beheaded, neither Li Yuanji nor Li Shimin was indifferent.
They came to stop Li Yuan from killing Li Jiancheng, and they did not want Li Yuan to bear the reputation of murdering his son. As for whether Li Yuan would kill Li Jiancheng under the pretense of someone else's hand after giving up on killing him with his own hands, or whether he would kill Li Jiancheng himself.
They don't need to care about other people involved, and they don't need to ask.
There is no need to offend Li Yuan or disobey Li Yuan for a group of unrelated people.
Anyway, every time something unpleasant happens to Li Yuan in the palace, someone will die. As long as the person who dies has no immediate interests or close relationship with him, it is not appropriate to talk too much.
This majestic and majestic Tai Chi Palace seemed to be the place where the Tang Dynasty governed, and it seemed to be the center of power of the Tang Dynasty. In fact, it was more like Li Yuan's playground and slaughterhouse.
The most important thing everyone living here needs to do every day is to please Li Yuan.
If Li Yuan is made happy, then everyone will live happily and comfortably.
If Li Yuan is angered, everyone will be unlucky and suffer accordingly.
Therefore, everyone in this Tai Chi Palace is actually serving Li Yuan.
Not only that, almost everyone in Chang'an City outside Taiji Palace, Chang'an outside Chang'an City, and the world outside Chang'an is serving Li Yuan.
The only difference is that the people in the Tai Chi Palace directly serve Li Yuan, while the people outside the Tai Chi Palace work hard to raise the people in the Tai Chi Palace so that they can better serve Li Yuan.
This is imperial power, the supreme imperial power.
With the blessing of this kind of authority, Li Yuan is almost omnipotent. Killing a noble concubine whose status is similar to that of a common concubine is not a big deal.
However, after Li Yuan's sword fell, he did not cut off the beauty's head, but cut off some accessories in the beauty's bun. Then he dropped the sword and said with extreme disgust, "With your virtue, you are not worthy of this."
Go up to Zitong’s red gold hairpin and nine phoenix wave.”
Zitong is a nickname given by the king to his wife.
There is no doubt that the Zitong Li Yuan spoke of must be the late Empress Taimu.
Li Yuan was able to give the late Empress Taimu's accessories to Concubine Yin De, which shows how much he loved Concubine Yin De.
It is precisely because of this that she became so angry after being betrayed by Concubine Yin De.
This is probably the so-called ‘deep love, deep hatred’.
However, Li Yuan did not cut off Concubine Yin De's head with a sword, which really surprised Li Yuanji.
Logically speaking, it is impossible for a king like Li Yuan to be cuckolded and not kill the 'evil leader'. It is not in line with his status as an emperor.
But Li Yuan didn't kill anyone. He didn't seem to intend to kill anyone himself.
They probably felt that taking action personally and knowing the people involved in Yi Jian's case would be too easy for them, so they were prepared to use harsher and more cruel methods to deal with them.
For example... cooking.
If Li Yuan really used cooking torture and had the cooked Concubine Yin De and others fed to Li Jiancheng, then Li Yuanji felt that Li Yuan's impression in his heart would be greatly reduced.
A king can kill and kill, and he can also kill heads.
But if people are treated with criminal laws that dehumanize people, then this king cannot be considered a benevolent king.
Li Yuanji also knew that one should not persuade others to do good unless they have suffered.
The cuckold was Li Yuan, not him.
He is not qualified to make irresponsible remarks on how Li Yuan should deal with the 'evil leader'.
But this did not prevent him from despising Li Yuan in his heart after he did something inhumane.
Everything seemed to be over after Li Yuan dropped his sword and said those extremely disgusting words.
But Li Yuanji, who is familiar with history, knows that everything is not over yet.
If everything ended here, then Li Jiancheng in history would never have forced Li Shimin to lead hundreds of people to launch a hasty coup.
If time allowed, it would have been impossible for Li Shimin to take hundreds of people to face the three thousand Changlin in the East Palace, as well as the men Li Yi secretly sent to Li Jiancheng.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! It is impossible to lead hundreds of people to face the two thousand soldiers of Prince Qi's palace and the thousands of guards in the palace.
Li Shimin absolutely understands the principle that a gentleman should not stand under a dangerous wall.
If time and conditions permit, Li Shimin will definitely use more manpower and more troops to launch a coup.
Therefore, Li Jiancheng would not have such a hasty ending just because he cuckolded Li Yuan.
When Li Yuan discovered that Li Jiancheng had cuckolded him and did not kill Li Jiancheng immediately, Li Jiancheng had escaped a certain death situation.
The rest depends on what the officials under him and the veterans who firmly support the eldest son inheritance system do.
Li Yuanji originally thought that even if those veterans wanted to help Li Jiancheng out of the crisis, they would have to wait until Li Yuan's anger subsided and the blockade of Tai Chi Palace was released.
Unexpectedly, just when Li Jiancheng was about to be pushed out of the gate of Ganlu Hall, veterans who firmly supported the eldest son inheritance system arrived.
Li Gang, Pei Ju, and Xiao Yu burst into the Manna Palace with blood all over them.
Outside the palace, the left and right generals of the garrison and the left and right generals of the Preparation Palace stopped him, but they did not stop him.
Relying on his age, he rammed the spear and knife into their hands. He only scratched his skin a little bit, but they were all frightened, let alone actually blocking him from the door and putting him on the spot.
Got it.
So after Li Gang banged his spear straight and made a bloody hole, and when Pei Ju tried to grab the sword of the captain of the Youtun Guard and wipe his neck on the spot, they happily let him go.
As for Li Yuan later, if they were blamed, they would have no choice but to consider themselves unlucky.
It’s impossible not to accept bad luck.
The three veterans are all elderly people who have survived the chaos of the Sui Dynasty. If they really fall into their hands, the leader among them will have to wipe his neck and apologize to the world.
After this, Li Yuan had to distribute their families and give an explanation to the world.
This is the treatment of respecting the elderly and valuing filial piety and giving people auspiciousness.
After Li Gang, Pei Ju, and Xiao Yu entered the Ganlu Hall, they first saluted Li Yuan, and then nodded slightly to Li Shimin and Li Yuanji.
This is the privilege granted to them by Li Yuan.
They saluted Li Yuan to show respect for the imperial power held by Li Yuan, and it was also polite to nod to Li Shimin and Li Yuanji.
However, Li Shimin and Li Yuanji do not hold imperial power in their hands, so they do not need to salute Li Shimin and Li Yuanji when they have the privilege of attending the palace.
On the contrary, if there is a major festival or important celebration in the name of respecting the elderly, Li Shimin and Li Yuanji have to give them gifts and even wait on them when necessary.
Although they did not dare to let Li Shimin and Li Yuanji serve them, etiquette was just that.
"Saint, what exactly did His Highness do to deserve such a heavy punishment?"
"Yes, His Royal Highness is the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty after all. Even if he is wrong, he will not mobilize troops and mobilize people like this. This will damage the majesty of the Tang Dynasty."
"..."
Li Gang and Pei Ju spoke one after another, looking anxious, as if Li Yuan had done something terribly wrong.
In fact, they knew what mistakes Li Jiancheng made, and they also knew how big Li Jiancheng's mistakes were and how serious the consequences were.
But in order to protect Li Jiancheng and to plead for Li Jiancheng conveniently, they pretended not to know anything at the moment.
Li Yuan was well aware of this matter, but he did not get mad at Li Gang and the others, and even gave them a smile.
Perhaps it was because his family background had always been criticized and he had always been looked down upon by wealthy families such as the five surnames, seven surnames, and the other six surnames. Li Yuan respected the famous, knowledgeable, and qualified veterans.
So even though Li Gang and the others were trying to prick his heart and excuse the beast in his heart, he still reluctantly gave Li Gang and the others a smile and said dryly: "I am the three beloved ministers regarding the Tang Dynasty.
I know. I also know why the three of you defended that beast Li Jiancheng so much.
If you three still think that I am the emperor of the Tang Dynasty and your lord, then please retreat quickly.
I don't want to make any of you angry because of that beast.
After all, each of you is a pillar of our country to the Tang Dynasty."
