Li Min couldn't help but smile, and then asked: "If my father refuses to take action, who and who in Chang'an City can threaten me?"
Shangguan Yi said seriously: "Your Highness, I believe that Changsun Wuji will definitely attack Your Highness. Moreover, he will also get a certain degree of acquiescence from the Emperor. It is very likely that the place where they will attack will be His Highness's Shu
Prince's Mansion."
Li Min also had a Shu palace in Chang'an City.
Although he has not lived there for many years, there are servants left behind to clean and repair it every year. After Li Min returns, he will definitely live there.
After pondering for a while, Li Min couldn't help but ask: "But since my father has issued an edict, if I don't go, wouldn't I be openly defying the edict?"
Shangguan Yi smiled slightly and said: "Your Highness can definitely pretend to be ill! Pretending to be terminally ill shows that it is not because he is not following the imperial edict, but because his body really cannot go away."
Well, yes, this is indeed a good way to go against the will.
However, this is not what Li Min wants.
At the last moment, Li Min also wanted to see Li Shimin.
Li Min couldn't help but said: "I still decided to go to Chang'an."
Seeing Shangguan Yi excitedly trying to persuade him, Li Min couldn't help but said: "Shangguan Changshi, I know what you are going to say, but I also have my own considerations."
"Besides, the person in this world who can kill me is probably not born yet! If Changsun Wuji wants to deal with me, I want to see what kind of means he has?"
Li Min laughed, and then said to Shangguan Yi: "Shangguan Changshi, I leave the affairs of Jiannan Road to you. You have to worry about everything."
After hearing what the King of Shu said, Shangguan Yi knew that the King of Shu had already made up his mind and it would be difficult for him to persuade him to change.
He couldn't help but say: "This is all the responsibility of my subordinates. Your Highness does not need to worry."
In fact, Shangguan Yi was quite familiar with the abilities of the King of Shu.
Shangguan Yi has not yet felt that what the King of Shu just said, that no one in this world who can kill him has been born yet, is bragging.
The King of Shu was so powerful, how many crises did he encounter?
Didn't that time turn misfortune into good fortune and turn misfortune into good fortune?
Shangguan Yi felt that the King of Shu was born with great luck and was the destined emperor!
Of course, only Li Min himself understood that he was really bragging just now.
Is there anyone who cannot be killed?
But if he just goes to Chang'an, as long as he doesn't waste time, it's really difficult to die.
He has a system to purchase tear gas, incendiary bombs, grenades and other weapons at any time.
It can be said that you can create a chaotic scene at will.
Then he naturally has other ways to leave quickly.
Therefore, even if Changsun Wuji really wanted to deal with him, it would be a near miss.
In the end, Li Min took only Li Yuanfang and ten other guards and took the train directly into Chang'an.
The King of Shu's visit to Beijing, especially the fact that he only brought ten guards with him, caused a sensation.
The current situation is so tense that even the people of Chang'an, let alone the civil and military ministers, feel it.
In the hearts of these common people, the King of Shu is more or less disloyal.
As a prince, how could he be completely indifferent to that position?
They thought that the King of Shu would not dare to come to Chang'an this time!
Even if they come, I'm afraid they will bring tens of thousands of soldiers and horses outside the city to act as a deterrent.
But what they didn't expect was that the King of Shu came to Chang'an City almost alone.
This caused public opinion to instantly tilt towards the side of King Shu.
The King of Shu really has no disobedience towards the Emperor!
If the emperor does something, how can it really be...
In the palace, Li Shimin learned the news when the King of Shu had just entered Chang'an.
Li Shimin, who was lying on the bed, suddenly let out a long sigh.
Then he glanced at Concubine Yang, who was serving beside her in all her clothes, and felt even more guilty inside.
Soon, the King of Shu arrived at the palace and paid homage to the Emperor Li Shimin.
After seeing the King of Shu, Li Shimin couldn't help but retreat, leaving Li Min alone.
It was obvious that father and son had important conversations to discuss.
Li Shimin, who was originally lying on the bed, suddenly sat up.
Li Min quickly stepped forward and placed a quilt behind Li Shimin for him to lean on.
Li Shimin looked at Li Min with a deep look, and then asked casually: "Zhen'er, you must know the reason for calling you back this time. What do you think your father wants to hear? What do you think?
Among the brothers, who is more suitable to be the emperor?"
Li Shimin's words almost excluded Li Min from the beginning.
If Li Min was really considered, I'm afraid he wouldn't ask this question.
Of course, this may just be a strategy of Li Shimin.
Hearing Li Shimin's question, Li Min smiled slightly and said: "Father, I think that in terms of legitimate sons, of course they are King Li Tai of Wei and King Li Zhi of Jin."
"However, King Li Tai of Wei is narrow-minded and has no tolerance for others. If he becomes the crown prince, I am afraid that none of our brothers will be spared."
"As for Jin King Li Zhi, he is still young, honest and honest, but lacks prestige. If he is appointed as the crown prince, I am afraid that the Tang Dynasty will be in danger of losing power."
In the original historical trajectory, Li Zhi was synonymous with the fall of power.
Of course, in this world, Wu Zetian, who could make him lose his power, has been taken away by Li Min.
But if Wu Zetian is gone, won't there be Liu Zetian and Zhang Zetian?
Li Min continued: "When I was filming the Heroes of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the most common thing I heard was about the King of Qi."
"They all said that King Qi and his father were almost identical when they were young."
"Moreover, the King of Qi is talented in military strategy and heroic, isn't he the best candidate for the crown prince?"
Hearing Li Min's words, Li Shimin couldn't help but feel slightly surprised.
He originally thought that Li Min would recommend himself as the crown prince.
But unexpectedly, he eventually recommended his brother Li Ke.
Li Shimin took a deep look at Li Min, and then said: "However, there is no support from the family behind King Qi, so it is difficult to secure this position!"
Li Min smiled slightly and said: "Father, behind King Qi, there are sons and ministers! And the sons and ministers believe that the noble families are actually the silverfish of the country. They are attached to the country and suck the blood of the country. Sooner or later, they will destroy the country.
Suck it to pieces!"
"So, I will help my brother to eliminate the dangers of the family within the next ten years."
Li Shimin took a deep look at Li Min again, and a look of exhaustion suddenly appeared on his face.
Then, he couldn't help but said to Li Min: "Min'er, my father will consider your words carefully. Now, my father is a little tired and wants to take a rest. You can go down first!"
"Yes, Father, please rest while I take my leave."
After Li Min left, Li Shimin's expression became extremely complicated.
Until this time, he was still weighing the pros and cons.
And the target of his trade-off was naturally swinging between the King of Qi and the King of Jin.
The King of Qi, Li Ke, was the most like him, and with his literary skills and military skills, he was definitely the best candidate.
But the King of Qi was a concubine, and what was even more fatal was that his mother-in-law was Concubine Yang, a former Sui princess.
There is no support from the aristocratic family behind him.
Of course, behind him stood the King of Shu.
However, from an orthodox perspective, the most suitable candidate is Jin Wang Li Zhi.
Why was there a rule in the past that established the elder rather than the younger, and established the heir rather than the concubine?
Just because there are no rules, there is no circle.
With this rule, a lot of internal friction will be reduced.
Without this rule, the country will fall into endless internal strife.
But Li Shimin himself broke this rule first.
If the throne is passed to King Qi again, then this rule will be completely messed up.
At this time, a man walked out from inside, it was Changsun Wuji.
Li Shimin really trusted Changsun Wuji. He deliberately let Changsun Wuji eavesdrop on such conversations between father and son.
Li Shimin did not look at Changsun Wuji, but sighed and said as if to himself:
"Assistant machine, the position of crown prince should be passed on to King Qi!"
Changsun Wuji said expressionlessly: "Your Majesty, King Qi has the blood of the former Sui royal family, and the people of the world will not agree!"
Li Shimin's face darkened and he said: "But he is also my flesh and blood, and his civility, military skills, and military skills are the most like me. I will rest assured that I will hand over the throne to him."
Changsun Wuji still insisted: "Your Majesty, since ancient times, there has been a tradition of passing on the descendants to direct descendants rather than concubines. Making King Qi the crown prince will definitely leave endless troubles to future generations."
Li Shimin said forcefully again: "Assistant machine, I have made my decision and there is no need to say more. Also, I warn you not to touch the King of Shu. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless and destroying your eldest grandson's family!"
This statement is heartbreaking!
At this moment, Li Shimin made the decision to pass the throne to King Qi.
Because only by passing the throne to the King of Qi can the political power be handed over in the smoothest manner.
Li Shimin doesn't want to mess up now.
After hearing Li Shimin's words, Changsun Wuji couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.
After a long while, Changsun Wuji said: "Old minister, I understand. Your Majesty, I will rest in peace. I will retire."
It is a pity that the king of Wei, Li Tai, was too stupid, and the king of Jin, Li Zhi, was too young and too indecisive.
Changsun Wuji knew very well that if the emperor really made King Qi the crown prince.
The other princes may be able to be saved.
But his eldest grandson Wuji, and even the eldest grandson's family, will definitely be defeated.
The new emperor will never let him go.
The king of Shu was disturbed, and the Changsun family was destroyed.
If the King of Shu is not moved, the Changsun clan will still be destroyed.
Moreover, as long as he can successfully destroy the King of Shu, there may be a glimmer of hope for him.
After leaving the palace, Changsun Wuji returned to his house and immediately summoned all the people in the house.
"Tonight, I want you to rush into the Prince of Shu's Mansion, kill the Prince of Shu, and burn the Prince of Shu's Mansion on fire."
"All the powers we have secretly cultivated are activated. Even if everyone dies, the King of Shu must be killed!"
In the Changsun Mansion, a group of dead soldiers were secretly cultivated. In fact, Li Shimin also knew about this.
But Li Shimin did not know the specific number of dead men in Changsun Mansion.
Changsun Wuji secretly trained a thousand dead men in total. If you include the guards in the palace, the number would be 1,500.
There are a total of ten guards in the Prince of Shu's palace.
In Changsun Wuji's opinion, even if he piles up people, he can still kill the King of Shu.
Of course, if the King of Shu dares to come to Chang'an with such a small number of people, he must have a back-up plan.
But now Changsun Wuji no longer cares about so much.
If the king of Shu is killed, their eldest grandson family will still have a chance of survival.
Otherwise, there is no choice but to slowly wait to die.
Next, Changsun Wuji continued to send out men and make various arrangements.
Sending 1,500 people into Chang'an City will definitely alert the city defense soldiers.
It would even alarm the officers and soldiers of the Sixteenth Guards.
If the officers and soldiers of the Sixteenth Guards were sent out, it would most likely ruin his plan.
Changsun Wuji must handle all this in advance.
Of course, with Changsun Wuji's power, it is not difficult to handle all this.
After all, most civil servants actually support the direct lineage of the King of Wei or the King of Jin.
That night, the moon was dark and the wind was high, which was the day of murder and arson.
At ten o'clock in the second watch, 1,500 black people quickly set off from the surroundings of the Shu Palace and broke into the Shu Palace.
The palace of Prince Shu was dark, without any lights, and looked lifeless.
After all, even the rooms didn't look popular at all.
Could it be that the entire Shu Palace is an empty city?
Shouldn't it?
Throughout the afternoon, they were closely monitoring the Shu Palace.
They saw with their own eyes that the King of Shu and his ten guards never came out after entering the palace.
There is no doubt that they must be in the house at this time.
However, all their attention was focused on the King of Shu and the ten guards.
What they didn't notice was that all the servants in Prince Shu's mansion today never returned after leaving the mansion.
As for these fifteen hundred men in black, since they entered the mansion, their every move has been under the surveillance of Shu King Li Min.
Seeing this scene, Li Min quickly lit a torch and ignited a huge thing in the yard.
As the flames ignited, Li Min and ten guards quickly stepped onto the basket.
Yes, as you thought, this is exactly a hot air balloon.
This is also the escape strategy that Li Min has prepared long ago.
Don’t you have a large number of dead soldiers?
Huh! I have a hot air balloon.
Li Min quickly cut the rope and the hot air balloon quickly took off.
The fire here startled fifteen hundred dead soldiers.
They quickly chased in the direction where the hot air balloon was rising.
Unfortunately, by the time they caught up, the hot air balloon had quickly taken off and reached an altitude of nearly 100 meters.
The fifteen hundred dead soldiers quickly took out their crossbows and shot at the monster high in the sky, trying to shoot it down.
It's a pity that the range of their crossbows on flat ground is more than 100 meters.
But this is a high altitude, and the range is difficult to reach 100 meters.
Moreover, the hot air balloon is still rising.
Their crossbows couldn't even touch the hot air balloon.
What made them even more angry was that the falling crossbow arrows injured many of their own people.
It's hard to defend yourself against arrows falling from the sky.
Basically it all depends on the trick.
He looked in the right direction and dodged, and it was over in a flash.
If you can't escape, it's very likely that this life will pass.
At this time, Li Min, who was high in the sky, pressed several buttons in his hand.
boom!
Boom! Boom!
An explosion occurred suddenly in the outskirts of the Shu Palace.
Although the explosion was not loud, a raging fire broke out quickly, and the fire spread too quickly.
Almost instantly, all the surrounding houses caught fire and quickly burned into the house.
In the middle, there were 1,500 dead soldiers, their expressions were frighteningly ugly.
Although they are dead soldiers, they are not willing to make unnecessary sacrifices.
But now, they have been surrounded by raging fire. With such a huge fire, it is difficult for them to rush out.
They quickly looked for water sources, tried to soak their clothes with water, and then found a relatively safe place to lie down to see if they could escape.
But to their great disappointment, there was no water at all!
It seems that they have cleared it up long ago. This is a rhythm that does not give them any way to survive.
The raging fire in the Prince of Shu's Mansion woke up countless people in Chang'an City.
They all got up from their beds, stood in their yards, and looked in the direction of the Shu Palace.
A fire broke out in the palace of the King of Shu. Is this the emperor? Has he finally taken action against the King of Shu?
"Look! Look to the sky!"
Because the fire in the Shu Palace was very strong, many people ignored the hot air balloon in the sky at first.
Now, countless people raised their heads and looked at the hot air balloon in the sky.
They couldn't help but let out bursts of exclamations.
Without any reason, they immediately concluded that the King of Shu must be in the fireball flying in the sky.
It turns out that the King of Shu had already taken precautions!
Sure enough, the omnipotent King of Shu is still the omnipotent King of Shu!
At this time, Wuhoupu and the soldiers of the Sixteenth Guards were all alerted.
In fact, they already knew it, but they were ordered to pretend not to know and to be deaf and dumb.
But now the commotion is too big, and the Prince of Shu's palace has been burned to such a degree that it is impossible for them to even think about taking action.
Their commander also complained in his heart about Changsun Wuji.
This time the fun is too big. Just kill someone and it’s over. How about setting such a big fire on the hair?
They quickly sent out troops, hoping that Changsun Wuji's men had completed their mission.
They can only help so much.
Changsun Mansion, Changsun Wuji looked at the fire rising into the sky from Prince Shu's Mansion, and at the hot air balloon gradually receding in the sky, a bad premonition suddenly arose in his heart.
In the palace, Li Shimin looked at the fire rising into the sky from Prince Shu's palace and the hot air balloon gradually receding in the sky, and suddenly a surge of anger surged in his heart.
"Check! Check for me immediately. What happened? Why did the Shu Prince's Mansion catch fire? What happened?"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
In the Shu Palace, the fire spread quickly and became fierce.
Fifteen hundred dead soldiers, like headless flies, bumped around everywhere.
However, it is simply impossible for them to break out of such a big fire.
They could only let out shrill screams of fear, and then were gradually engulfed by the fire.
And in the sky above Luoyang City, under the comments of countless Chang'an people, the hot air balloon floated all the way, and soon arrived outside Chang'an City.
Under Li Min's control, the hot air balloon slowly landed.
After landing, several people stepped off the hot air balloon.
Li Yuanfang said nervously: "Your Highness, the train will not arrive until tomorrow. How should we leave?"
"Now we must beware of Changsun Wuji sending troops out of the city to pursue him. Also, if we leave by train tomorrow, we must also beware of him directly sending troops to ambush us at the train station."
"It would be nice if we were prepared in advance. At the very least, if we had a car, we could get off the road."
This time, it came very hastily.
Originally, Li Yuanfang decided to make sufficient preparations in advance, but Li Min did not let him make any preparations.
Now, a group of eleven people are outside Chang'an City, and they don't even have a horse.
Once Changsun Wuji sends people to hunt him down, it will be difficult for them to escape.
But Changsun Wuji would definitely send people to hunt him down.
At this time, even Li Yuanfang, who was highly skilled in martial arts, panicked.
He himself was not afraid, what he was afraid of was that he would not be able to protect His Highness.
At this time, Li Min smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, I have already prepared. You guys wait here, I'll be back soon."
…
At this time, a servant came to report to Changsun Wuji in the Changsun Mansion.
"Sir, the King of Shu has made preparations in advance. After our people enter, they will leave from the sky on a flying fireball."
"And after our people entered the King of Shu's palace, the people of the King of Shu set fire outside. Our people are afraid that they will not be able to come back."
"The latest news we got is that the flying ball that King Shu flew on has now left Chang'an City. But it didn't fly too far and landed outside Chang'an City. Master, what should we do now?"
Changsun Wuji's face was gloomy, and the corners of his mouth were twitching.
Unexpectedly, the King of Shu was already prepared to lure him into taking the bait!
If the King of Shu cannot be killed today, then it will definitely be the beginning of a nightmare for their eldest grandson family.
Thinking of this, Changsun Wuji couldn't help but said in a deep voice: "Send people out of the city and destroy the King of Shu at all costs! We must not let him leave Chang'an alive!"
"Sir, but now the city gate is closed, our people can't get out at all!"
"Fool! The city gate is closed. Can't you leave the city along the city wall? Remember, no matter what, the King of Shu must be eliminated!"
"Yes, sir, I will make arrangements right away!"
After the housekeeper went down, Changsun Wuji's eyelids jumped.
Changsun Wuji suddenly had a bad premonition. He felt that this time, the Changsun family would be defeated by him.
Soon, the steward of Changsun Mansion sent more than a hundred people.
He ordered them to quietly leave the city and hunt down the King of Shu.
These more than one hundred people are the few people in Changsun's mansion.
In the battle at the Prince of Shu's Mansion just now, the Changsun family invested almost all their secret efforts in order to completely eliminate the Prince of Shu.
Unexpectedly, he was burned to pieces by the King of Shu.
Now these one hundred people are the last strength of the Changsun Mansion.
And these more than a hundred dead soldiers actually went down through the hanging basket on the city gate.
In other words, the officers and soldiers defending the city gate were also infiltrated by the Changsun family.
This is their last resort, they must kill the King of Shu!
At this moment, outside the city, Li Yuanfang and ten other guards were waiting anxiously.
Suddenly, there was a roar from ahead.
This sound was clearly the sound of a locomotive.
But Li Yuanfang was familiar with all existing motorcycle sounds, and he had never heard such a sound before.
This is a type of motorcycle that has never appeared before.
