Chapter 259: The King of Chu personally planned it! Lu Lingqis terror!
Nor will it be the court’s choice!
Of course, they, the family officials, must be fully prepared.
We are ready to cooperate with the people from Chang'an to carry out the important task of upgrading to Kyoto.
Not to mention, in the future, Luoyang may have to contend with the Chang'an branch.
tomorrow!
Everything that happens here will become history and be recorded in history books!
You have to make sure nothing goes wrong!
so,
Early this morning, regardless of the cold weather outside, the governor Li Longtian gathered the officials of the noble families in Luoyang City, intending to discuss it and implement this matter in the shortest possible time.
But, who would have thought!
Just when they all arrived, before they even said a word, a group of people suddenly rushed in!
Without any explanation, he beheaded all the guards in Luoyang Mansion!
Only a few of them are left!
Come and go like the wind!
Not a word was left.
Then, Luoyang Mansion, the center of Luoyang City, was completely blocked by those mysterious people.
Anyone who dares to step out of Luoyang Mansion will be killed without mercy!!
They had to believe this.
Without him!
Because there are still two fresh heads hanging in front of the mansion's gate!
These two people just didn't believe in evil and wanted to leave by force because they had dominated Luoyang City for many years.
But the result….
He didn't say a word nonsense, he just shot out the knife and blood splattered everywhere.
"What to do? What is going on? Who are they? Luoyang City... Luoyang City, when did such people and forces exist!"
"I don't know, you ask me, who should I ask? Cui Sima, tell me, you are Luoyang Sima, you guard Luoyang City, and those who defend are all your people, what is going on?
What’s going on??”
"Yeah, who are they? Damn it, what should we do now? Do we really have to sit back and wait for death? Tomorrow morning, your majesty and the others will arrive. If... if your majesty and the others don't know, wouldn't they be in danger?
?”
"This...could it be said that this is an arrangement from Chang'an?"
"Impossible, absolutely impossible! Who of you here doesn't know the details of Luoyang City? In recent years, it can be said that all the official positions in Luoyang City, large and small, are in the hands of our family. From the inside out, they are all ours.
How can we make arrangements over there in Chang'an?"
"Yes, this is the strangest place. Why can they sneak in quietly?"
"Think of a way to spread the news quickly. The city is full of our people. As long as the news is spread, we will be safe!"
"But, how to spread the news? They kill people without blinking an eye. If they are exposed, we will not be able to survive. And... there are only a few of us alive in Luoyang Mansion, who dares to go?"
"Gudong..."
As soon as this sentence came out.
The lobby was completely in chaos.
Li Longtian sat there with a gloomy expression, as if it was the cold winter in September.
This group of aristocratic officials who once thought that Luoyang was their own backyard, at this moment, felt panicked and completely at a loss.
Confused!
Silly!
shock!
shocked!
Seriously, they have no idea who those people are!
It's like it came out of nowhere.
Cui Fei was too lazy to explain, let alone in the mood to explain.
It is true that he is Luoyang Sima and commands the Luoyang army, but he has never seen these people, let alone heard of them...
In my heart, there is only horror!
In Luoyang Mansion, these guards can be said to be the most elite in Luoyang City.
However, in front of that group of people, there was no ability to resist at all.
"Prince Li..."
Cui Fei looked at Li Longtian: "These people..."
"Huh... when your majesty and the others arrive tomorrow, we will all be safe."
"We Mingren don't speak secretly. We are all descendants of major aristocratic families. We know very well that no one in the world, not even the imperial court, is our opponent, let alone these cats and dogs."
"They are probably just a group of tough bandits. I infer that they may have heard that His Majesty has ascended the throne, so they are thinking of seeking an official position under His Majesty to gain some benefits for themselves."
"Hold on, as long as we hold on, we'll be safe until tomorrow morning!"
"Your Majesty is here, accompanied by countless elites. If they don't let us go, then... there is only a dead end?!"
Cui Fei said in a deep voice.
Li Longtian nodded.
This is not unreasonable.
They should be watching the new emperor ascend the throne, so they want to exchange benefits.
But…….
He was just about to speak when, suddenly, several footsteps sounded outside the lobby.
"Hehehe... All high-ranking officials in Luoyang City, stay safe."
Immediately afterwards, a person walked in slowly.
It was the one who spoke.
She is a woman with silver hair.
Not just girls.
after her.
Another young man walked in, followed by two maids.
When this young man walked into the lobby, Li Longtian, who was sitting there, suddenly stood up and his pupils shrank sharply!
All the officials in the lobby were breathing heavily and stood beside Li Longtian, staring at the young man in disbelief!
The air suddenly became thicker.
"how?"
"Are you scared when you see this king?"
"I... am I that scary?"
Li Kuan's voice was neither salty nor bland.
It's like chatting with strangers normally, without emotion.
But everyone present was shocked.
Shangguan Haitang quickly put a stool behind Li Kuan.
Li Kuan sat down.
Lu Lingqi, Shangguan Wan'er and Shangguan Haitang were ranked behind.
The gun in Lu Lingqi's hand was held a little tight.
He was very wary and looked at the people on both sides.
But Shangguan Wan'er and Shangguan Haitang were extremely relaxed.
"you you……."
Li Longtian swallowed hard.
"Chu...King Chu!!!"
"You...you, you, why are you here?"
"Why are you here!!"
"you you you you……."
Li Longtian was completely speechless, his voice was trembling, and he was at a loss.
King of Chu, Li Kuan!
Of course they have been paying attention.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! After all, these days, Li Kuan is like a ghost, with no trace in the entire Tang Dynasty.
But.
The capital of the Tang Dynasty, Chang'an City, is full of legends about the King of Chu.
Also, how many times did the family try to encircle and suppress King Chu's wings, but in the end they all failed inexplicably.
Although they are not in Chang'an, they all know the news.
But, they never expected it!
Now, King of Chu Li Kuan!
That extremely mysterious man!
Surprisingly, it appeared here!!
If you say so, everything that happened in Luoyang Mansion today was all arranged by King Chu.
"My king, why can't I be here?"
"You colluded with the rebels and wanted to harm our country, the Tang Dynasty. How can I, the king, ignore you?"
Li Kuan said softly.
"King Chu, you...you are talking nonsense!"
"We...when did we want to harm the Tang Dynasty?"
"We...when did we collude with the rebellion?"
"Which eye of yours saw us doing this?"
Cui Fei shouted excitedly.
"Yes, yes, Your Highness the King of Chu, you broke into Luoyang Mansion without permission and killed so many guards of the Tang Dynasty. I think you are the one who wants to rebel, right?"
"you you……."
"King Chu, I will definitely report your evil deeds to Your Majesty and ask Your Majesty to come and deal with you!"
"Don't think that the laws of the Tang Dynasty have nothing to do with you. King Chu, it's still too late for you to turn back now, but don't make the mistake!!"
When Li Longtian heard Cui Fei's words, his mind immediately reacted.
After all, they are all the best among men.
Such improvisations are nothing more than trivial matters.
"That's right, Your Highness King Chu, don't make the mistake!!"
"We have never had any rebellion, and we have never done any harm to the Tang Dynasty. But it is you who killed my soldiers of the Tang Dynasty and imprisoned us and other imperial officials without explanation. You are the one who committed the most serious crime!"
"King Chu, please stop now. Otherwise, when the time comes to get out, you will be ruined..."
"Yes, King Chu, if that's the case, we'll pretend we didn't see it. Just leave quickly! If it's too late and the people of Luoyang City know about it, you'll be finished, and your fame will be finished!!"
"Your Highness, King Chu, you are still young. You must have listened to some rumors. Please, Your Highness, King Chu, leave here as soon as possible!"
"……."
Other officials in Luoyang City also agreed.
That's called sincerity.
If Li Kuan didn't know everything, he would really think that they were thinking about him.
"Hahaha... Everyone, please stop pretending. Aren't you tired?"
"If that's the case, then you all... just think that this king has rebelled."
Li Kuan directly followed their words.
Li Longtian:…….
He stared at Li Kuan, the king of Chu who had no access to oil and salt, and was really speechless.
He never expected that Li Kuan would admit it directly.
have to!
He had really never seen this scene before.
"You...Li Kuan, what on earth are you going to do??"
Cui Fei took a deep breath.
"Let us go. Luoyang City is yours, and all the gold, silver and jewelry we have in Luoyang City are also yours! How about that?"
Cui Fei said in a deep voice.
Li Longtian and others also nodded repeatedly.
In this case, they just want to survive.
As long as they can get out, they are confident that as long as they can get out of Luoyang Mansion, they will be safe.
The tens of thousands of elite soldiers in Luoyang City are no joke.
These are their territories. Wouldn't it be easy to deal with a child?
"Why bother?"
"If you can't wait to get out, those things belong to me."
"Don't worry, I have sent people to raid your home."
"Don't think about the army every day. Those things are not yours. They belong to the Tang Dynasty and my Li family!"
"Ten thousand steps back, even though those soldiers are all under your command, but... with just your little fighting power, I really don't look down on you."
"The Turks were destroyed, and the so-called mysterious army was sent by this king."
"You guys, just stay here and stay well."
"If you have the courage to commit suicide, you can commit suicide now."
"If you still want to survive for a while, then...just stay well. I will not kill you. After all, I am just a prince. It is not my turn to have the power of life and death for you officials. You, etc.
I will discuss my life after I return to Chang'an."
Li Kuan narrowed his eyes slightly and said very calmly.
As soon as these words came out.
In an instant.
A feeling of despair rose directly in the lobby.
The throats of Li Longtian, Cui Fei and others were all dry.
Their lips were instantly cracked.
Shortness of breath.
incredible!
It’s over!
This time it’s really over!
There is only one thought in everyone's mind now.
Mysterious army!
They had heard about the battle to destroy the Turks. Without that mysterious army, the Tang Dynasty would not have been able to win, and they would not be standing here now.
If the Turks had been victorious at that time, they would all be in Chang'an now, and they would be the Dukes of the country.
But…….
How is this possible?!
King of Chu, Li Kuan.
How old is he?
He is the master behind that mysterious army?!
hiss…….
call…….
All they felt was that their chests were exploding and their heartbeats were rising rapidly.
If this is the case, then think about the previous attempts by the family to encircle and suppress the King of Chu, and they would all fail inexplicably.
He must have done it too!!
Gudong…….
damn it!!
Who would have thought that the person hidden most deeply in the Tang Dynasty was not Li Shimin or the family, but the person in front of him...the King of Chu of the Tang Dynasty!!
silence!
silence!
Li Longtian and the others stared at Li Kuan.
My mind goes blank.
For a moment, I couldn't accept this result.
Li Kuan looked at them and was too lazy to say anything more.
He tightened his clothes and turned his head to look at the sky outside.
"It seems that the time is almost up."
"My stupid third brother, Li Tai, and the others should be coming over now, right?"
“I really don’t know how I’m going to… greet them tomorrow.”
"By the way, have you all discussed a way to welcome me?"
Li Kuan looked at a few people and said with a smile.
Li Longtian's eyes trembled wildly.
How did he know that they came here to discuss how to welcome Li Tai and the others?
hiss…….
The ability of Chu King Li Kuan is much more powerful than they thought!
No one answered Li Kuan’s words!
Li Kuan smiled lightly and stood up slowly.
"Let's go and go out for a walk with me. I've never been to Luoyang City before."
"Since you won't say anything, then we have to think about how to give them, my stupid third brother, a... big surprise."
Li Kuan turned around.
But at this moment, Cui Fei suddenly unsheathed the knife on his waist and rushed towards Li Kuan.
Extremely sudden!
Like a cheetah!
He stared at Li Kuan's back, and in his eyes, Li Kuan was the only one left.
This is the last hope!
And this hope is so big!!
Cui Fei is the general of Luoyang City, so he is naturally allowed to wear a cross sword on his waist.
but!
At this moment, a spear suddenly appeared in his face like a ghost.
Then!
Bang!!
There was a muffled sound, and Cui Fei's body that had just rushed out was smashed backwards.
He only took two steps forward, but flew backwards for more than ten steps, and finally hit the table in the lobby hard.
