Hou Junji and Li Yuanchang were killed one after another, and the Zuowei rebels quickly collapsed under the joint attack of the remaining Zuowuwei troops and the new force Shenji Battalion. As groups of soldiers from the left and right camps drove up to the top of the mountain, this sudden attack
The rebellion was quickly put down.
Cheng Yaojin was sneak attacked by Hou Junji and Li Yuanchang and almost died. He was originally filled with hatred and wanted to crush these two people to ashes in order to relieve his hatred. But now he saw Hou Junji lying on the ground.
Qi Jue's eyes were still wide-eyed, and his body was stabbed with spears, leaving dozens of bloody holes, and his flesh and blood were blurred. On the other side, Li Yuanchang's body was missing, and he couldn't help but sigh with sadness like a rabbit dead and a fox dead.
I remember that we were all brothers who worked hard in the trenches. Seeing that we were reduced to such a miserable situation by a single thought, I suddenly couldn't bear it.
At the same time, I also had some doubts in my heart. What did Hou Junji mean by what he said before he died?
Which of the Shenji camp and the left and right camps that came quickly is the backup that His Majesty has arranged in advance?
It's just that although I mutter in my heart, it doesn't show on my face.
Cheng Yaojin is a bit of a fool, but ordinary people can live without him and understand that no matter how the clown dances and dances, as long as he hugs the thigh of His Majesty Li Er, there is nothing wrong! It is this seemingly simple but actually full of life.
With his smart strategy, he never made any mistakes as a team!
Chai Zhewei, the general of the right camp, was dressed in military uniform and walked over with a tall and straight figure. His Majesty Li Er came forward, knelt down on one knee and said: "Your Majesty, the traitor Hou Jun has gathered. Li Yuanchang has already killed him, and all the rebels from the left guard have been wiped out.
Surrender and take custody! Your Majesty, please punish me if your rescue comes late!"
His Majesty Li Er nodded: "How is the situation in Chang'an City?"
No plan can be absolutely perfect. This time, although he had made arrangements in advance, he ordered the left and right camps stationed outside Xuanwu Gate to keep an eye on the situation at the top of Lishan Mountain. If anything went wrong, they would immediately go to the mountain to help.
There are elite "Hundred Cavalry" guards around him, enough to withstand the arrival of reinforcements.
Unexpectedly, it was the Shenji Battalion that was originally included in the rebel formation by His Majesty Li Er, who took the lead in counterattack and defeated Hou Junji's left guard, which was regarded as the first achievement...
Could it be that Changsun Chong was not involved in the rebellion?
His Majesty Li Er was confused for a moment.
Everything was His Majesty Li Er's guess, but the facts proved that his guess was correct. Hou Junji rebelled, Li Yuanchang rebelled, but Changsun Chong...
Perhaps it was precisely because of his hostility to the prince that he did not participate in this rebellion?
Putting it this way, it does make sense.
Chai Zhewei said respectfully: "The general received news of the rebellion on the top of the mountain and immediately set off to escort him. At the same time, he informed the Jinwu Guards and Yi Guards on the left and right in the city to immediately close the city gates and strictly guard the palace. I don't think there will be any rebellion by the rebels."
Chai Zhewei was very excited.
Although Chang Sun Chong took away the first victory in pacifying the rebels, he was not too disappointed.
Being able to be arranged by the emperor to come to the rescue at the most important moment is enough to prove the emperor's trust in him. As long as this trust is there, why worry about not having the opportunity to make meritorious deeds?
Look ahead to a bright future!
His Majesty Li Er breathed a sigh of relief.
But when he looked away from the brightly armored Imperial Guards and looked at the common people and merchants wailing in a pool of blood, his heart felt a little heavy.
These people are innocent...
Originally, this was just a grand gathering about the super sky lantern. It was Li Shimin who chose to connive in order to test who secretly wanted to rebel against him and support the crown prince, and thus implicated these people.
In the melee, these unarmed common people and ordinary businessmen naturally became the most tragic targets.
However, it is His Majesty Li Er after all.
Li Shimin, who has gone through blood and fire, dared to fight three thousand against one hundred thousand in front of Hulao Pass, and was able to kill brothers and brothers under the Xuanwu Sect. His will has been tempered to be as hard as stone!
My mood only became slightly heavier and then returned to normal.
For the stability of the Tang Dynasty, what could not be sacrificed?
At the mountain pass, there was another commotion, but the civil and military officials from all the dynasties who had received news of the rebellion on the top of the mountain rushed over.
Led by Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling, a group of ministers hurriedly came to His Majesty Li Er. When they saw that the Emperor was safe and sound, they breathed a long sigh of relief. Just looking at the mountain of corpses again, every one of them was exhausted.
Shivered!
How could Hou Junji act like this if he has lost his mind?
Fortunately, he was killed on the spot. If his rebellion was successful, I can hardly imagine what the Tang Dynasty would be like tomorrow!
"Your Majesty is blessed with great blessings, and we congratulate him!"
All the ministers bowed and saluted, shouting loudly.
"Gather the people on the top of the mountain and make statistics. Regardless of the casualties, they must be compensated accordingly. We must stabilize people's hearts. I don't want to hear any rumors that are detrimental to the imperial court." His Majesty Li Er sank.
Like water, he said in a deep voice.
"No!" This kind of thing is naturally the task of the prime minister Fang Xuanling, and Fang Xuanling quickly responded.
His Majesty Li Er asked again: "Is there anything unusual about the prince?"
All the ministers were silent.
Everyone has received the news that Hou Junji and Han Wang Li Yuanchang rebelled in the name of protecting the crown prince's accession to the throne. Now that Hou Junji and Li Yuanchang have both been killed, how can the prince be safe and sound?
But the problem is that these words were only spoken by Hou Junji and Li Yuanchang, and there was no movement from the prince. How should we deal with this?
No smart person would say anything about this kind of thing.
And during the Zhenguan Dynasty, there was never a shortage of smart people...
Therefore, no one dared to answer His Majesty Li Er's words.
No one can guarantee that the prince is really innocent, and no one dares to say that the prince is really involved...
At this time, a military general reported: "Some soldiers claimed that Zhao Jie, the son of Princess Changguang, was colluding with the King of Han Li Yuanchang. He had previously been ordered by Li Yuanchang to go to Fangjia Manor to capture His Highness the King of Wei..."
His Majesty Li Er was shocked: "Zhao Jie? He is worthy of death! Has King Wei ever fallen into their hands?"
The general shook his head and said, "The surrendered soldier doesn't know the details either."
His Majesty Li Er said angrily: "Even so, why don't you send someone to Fangjia Manor as soon as possible?"
"No!" the general took the order, ordered a group of troops, and hurried down the mountain road.
His Majesty Li Er couldn't stay any longer and immediately ordered to go down the mountain.
In the Fang family manor, there is not only Wei King Li Tai, but also his three daughters! If the rebels really attack the manor, the group of forbidden troops he sent to Li Tai may be outnumbered! If Wei Wang, Changle, Gaoyang, Jinyang and others
If every child falls into the hands of the rebels, the consequences are unimaginable!
At this moment, His Majesty Li Er was no longer interested in strategizing, and his panic was no different from ordinary parents worrying about their children...
*****
Princess Changle turned around lightly, looked at Fang Jun with her bright eyes, and said softly: "Being born in an emperor's family, it seems that you are well-dressed, well-educated, and have a noble status, but in fact there are many unavoidable difficulties. Marriage is the most helpless one among them.
one thing."
Fang Jun nodded slightly to express his understanding.
Not to mention that in this feudal era, it is a new century that is known to smash all feudal dross. In order to consolidate interests, marriage is still the most basic method for some wealthy and senior officials.
The orders of parents and the words of matchmakers are not just words!
The more prominent a family is, the less they can make the decision on marriage. Since you have been blessed by your family since you were born, you must always be aware of dedicating yourself to the family, even if it costs your life, let alone marriage.
?
Princess Changle's smile was a little bitter, but her tone was still calm and gentle, just like her clear and beautiful temperament, without any fluctuations.
"In comparison, Shu'er is lucky. Do you know? Every time he talks about his marriage, Shu'er will be very happy to be able to follow his father's will and marry a minister in the court, and the partner is the one he likes.
, what could be more perfect than this? At the Jingshui Bridge, you risked your life to save Shu'er, and Shu'er has attached your heart to you. This girl is a little unruly and willful, but her temper is extremely stubborn.
Even my father cannot easily change what he has determined. Even if what happened today happens again, I believe Shuer will still push you away without hesitation and take that arrow himself!"
Princess Changle's eyes were very bright, her eyelashes were thick and long, and her voice was clear and sweet: "Shu'er has no other intentions for Master Bianji. It was just a misunderstanding in front of Ximing Temple that day. Because of that incident, Shu'er secretly cried
Several times. Did you know that this stubborn girl would not shed a tear to win sympathy even when she was punished by her father? If she didn’t have the deepest affection for you, she would never do this. I say this just to let you know
You know, in Shu'er's heart, you are the only one, and she is willing to die for you. And what else can't you let go of?"
