"Second Young Master, please wait a moment. I'll ask someone to open the door." The general at the top of the city was obviously very excited that Li Shimin could remember his name and call him by his nickname affectionately.
The imperial city gate was quickly opened, and Li Shimin led two sword-hung knights into the imperial city gate leisurely.
At this moment, a group of cavalry swarmed over on Zhuque Street opposite the Imperial City Gate.
Amidst the rumble of thousands of horses galloping, Chai Shao led 10,000 cavalry to arrive on time at the cost of the tragic death of thousands of people.
The general named He Mazi changed his face and shouted sternly: "Second Young Master, please hurry into the city. There are thieves who intend to storm the city. I am here to ask someone to close the city gate as soon as possible."
Li Shimin said calmly: "Thief, who is the thief?"
The general was stunned for a moment and was about to say something. Suddenly, he saw a sword light rising into the sky!
The knight in tight clothes behind Li Shimin didn't see any movement, but his sword had already been unsheathed.
And with this sword light, the general and the heads of the two soldiers behind him flew out directly. Before he finished speaking, the general's body softened!
The surrounding Forbidden Army soldiers who were only loyal to Li Yuan were stunned!
As he drew his sword, the cloak on top of the cavalry's head also split into two halves and fell to the ground, revealing the face of the most handsome young man in the world, who looked to be eighteen or nineteen years old, with an extremely indifferent face.
face.
If not the King of Killers, who else could he be?
The King of Killers No. 1 had an expressionless face and held a rapier in his hand. He had just killed three people with one sword strike, but there was no blood on the blade!
After the other Forbidden Army soldiers were stunned for a moment, they rushed towards Li Shimin and the others.
This time, the No. 1 Killer King did not take action again, but the knight on Li Shimin's right took action.
His weapon is still a sword, but his sword is the most standard long sword, probably so as not to affect his vision. When he drew the sword, the bamboo hat on his head also fell into pieces.
It's just that he wore a thin iron mask on his face, revealing only a pair of slightly dull eyes.
However, his strength, especially his swordsmanship, is no weaker than that of the No. 1 Killer King, and his aura is even more powerful.
This swordsman wearing an iron mask stood alone in front of the city gate, standing in front of Li Shimin, blocking hundreds of Forbidden Army soldiers and killing them easily.
When there was no one blocking the way in front of him, Li Shimin took the King of Killers No. 1 and continued to walk inside on horseback. He handed over the city gate to the iron-faced swordsman, and he alone guarded the city gate and blocked the advancing Imperial Army.
All the soldiers were killed until Chai Shao, who still had two to three hundred steps left, led ten thousand cavalry and rushed into the imperial city.
Of course, there will be people rushing towards Li Shimin. Although they may not dare to kill Li Shimin, they have already seen that Li Shimin may have the intention of treason, so they try to stop them, but they are all easily killed by the King of Killers No. 1. Li Shimin crotches
He dismounted his horse and continued walking toward the Imperial City and out of the Tai Chi Hall without even stopping for a moment.
Behind them, the iron-masked swordsman had been surrounded and overwhelmed by countless Forbidden Army soldiers.
The swords were like a forest. When the dozen Forbidden Soldiers who were rushing at the front were four steps away from the iron masked swordsman, the iron masked swordsman suddenly rose up. The sword in his hand was like a phantom.
Ten swords.
The next moment, the dozens of Forbidden Army soldiers were sprayed with blood, their arms and limbs were broken everywhere, and even the swords in their hands were broken into two pieces.
On the other side, Killer King No. 1, who had walked more than 20 steps into the imperial city, casually stabbed the throat of a Forbidden Army soldier on the left with his sword. It seemed an understatement, not shallow but not deep. It just happened to pierce the throat, but not
waste one
Just the right amount of strength.
Killer King No. 1 took the time to turn around and look at the killing scene of the iron masked swordsman, and muttered with some dissatisfaction: "It's not accurate enough, it's such a waste of energy."
The Iron Mask Swordsman didn't care about that. Every time he drew his sword, it was a blur, and then it was a bloody mess. The row of Forbidden Soldiers at the front fell down in rows like felled trees.
Next, many people were directly cut in half.
Li Shimin heard the muttering of Killer King No. 1 and turned his head to look at the iron masked swordsman who was killing everyone.
Although the King of Killers No. 1 didn't say it, nor did he ask, he could still tell who the iron-masked swordsman was from his body shape and the sword.
The sword god supported by the Dugu family is said to be the only remaining master in the world.
Now, he has been turned into a monster that is neither human nor ghost by the killer king next to him who is too handsome to look like a human being.
Thinking of this, even with Li Shimin's temperament, he couldn't help but feel chills towards the number one killer king beside him.
Of course, Li Shimin knew that if he could not absolutely control a monster like the No. 1 Killer King, he might suffer backlash at any time, and it would be a very serious backlash. If he was not careful, he might be killed like a chicken, even if
It's no use being with the army all the time.
However, Li Shimin was Li Shimin after all, and there was no one or power in the world that he did not dare to use.
In fact, Li Shimin has already thought about the fate of the No. 1 King of Killers, and in his plan, the role of the No. 1 King of Killers is very important, related to the battle he launched in Chang'an City.
The finishing touches of the coup.
In the plan, he will go on a killing spree during this coup. This kind of thing will definitely cause a lot of internal friction. Although there will be a process of great chaos and great governance, the problem is that Wang Junlin will not give him time to achieve great governance, and at this time he needs this person.
King of Killers No. 1 comes into play.
As for how it worked, Li Shimin did not dare to tell anyone, but kept it deep in his heart, because he was worried that if the No. 1 Killer King knew about it, he would desperately assassinate him.
When Li Shimin was thinking about these things, he didn't dare to use the corner of his eye to look at the No. 1 Killer King next to him, because he knew that this person's ability was too weird. Who knows if he might have the terrifying ability to read his thoughts?
.
Not long after walking into the imperial city, Li Shimin heard the shouts of death becoming more and more frequent and crazy behind him, and he also heard the sound of thousands of galloping horses getting closer and closer.
However, he always sat on the horse and did not look back. He just speeded away on horseback in the direction of Tai Chi Hall as the No. 1 Killer King killed everyone in the way.
What happened at the gate of the imperial city has been spread to the palace, so Li Shimin has no way to show his face at this time. There are constant soldiers and forbidden soldiers trying to chase and intercept him, but they are all killed by the No. 1 Killer King.
Soon, the two of them arrived outside the Tai Chi Hall.
Li Shimin rode his horse and rushed to the foot of Tai Chi Hall. At the bottom of the long steps, Li Shimin turned over and dismounted.
Killer King No. 1 was not seen making any moves. He had floated down from his horse, like a shadow, always standing within half a step behind Li Shimin, but it would not affect his sword draw, let alone Li Shimin's walking.
…………
…………
There is a group of Li Yuan's personal guards guarding the entrance of Tai Chi Hall. If Li Shimin comes to attend tonight's banquet normally, he will definitely greet him respectfully and let him in.
But the problem is, the shouts of killing at the gate of the imperial city are too loud, and the noise of ten thousand cavalry galloping outside is even louder. The news has just been received here, but it has not arrived yet.
Before he could enter and report to Li Yuan, Li Shimin and Killer King No. 1 came over.
Therefore, while some people rushed down with knives and axes, trying to stop Li Shimin, others rushed in to report Li Yuan.
Although Li Shimin has a high prestige in the army of Li Yuan's group, the men and horses in the imperial city are all Li Yuan's close soldiers and are only loyal to Li Yuan. Even Li Yuan's son, even a proud man like Li Shimin, has already led the cavalry to charge.
City, they will also treat them as rebels.
However, although these personal guards are much better in martial arts than the imperial soldiers guarding the imperial city gates, and there are even several masters in the stagnant stage among them, they are still not enough to face the No. 1 Killer King.
Killer King No. 1 walked among them like a stroll. A flash of sword light flashed through seemingly slowly, but extremely fast. All the more than a hundred guards at the gate of Tai Chi Palace fell into a pool of blood. They fell into a pool of blood every time.
There wasn't much blood left by the individual, because their wounds were all in the throat area. They weren't big, but they were enough to stop them breathing.
There was no one in front of him to stop him, so Li Shimin stepped forward, and the King of Killers No. 1 followed closely behind him.
More soldiers and guards rushed over like a wave, but they were unable to stop Li Shimin's progress. After leaving dozens of corpses on the steps, the second prince of the Tang Dynasty who killed his brother Li Yuanji had already
Standing outside the main entrance of Tai Chi Hall!
Behind him, there were many soldiers and guards trying to rush up, but Li Shimin suddenly turned around and smiled.
This smile is full of incomparable confidence and naturalness.
"Everything I want to do is right. You should not come here to die. You should remain useful and you may continue to serve me in the future."
The Taiji Hall is very deep. Even after you open the gate, there are several major doors inside. The place where the banquet is held is of course deep, and Li Yuan closed all the major doors in order to ensure that what he was doing went smoothly.
…………
…………
"Okay, everyone, I've given you enough time to think, now make your choice!"
"Or maybe you want to die, otherwise wouldn't it be so difficult to make this choice today?"
Deep in the Tai Chi Hall, Dugu Changsu stood in front of Li Yuan. Under the steps, he was loudly continuing to intimidate and lure, saying things that were inconvenient for Li Yuan to say.
In the entire hall, no one spoke. The faces of many heads of wealthy families changed. They gestured to each other with their eyes, but it was difficult to convey the message accurately. They wanted to unify their thoughts and advance together, but the scene before them
Well, they can't negotiate at all.
Finally, the head of the Zheng family in Xingyang took a deep breath, stepped forward, saluted respectfully to Li Yuan, and said loudly: "Your Highness, someone from our Zheng family secretly contacted the Far Eastern Army, but they did it behind my back.
, when I turn around, I will arrest these people who secretly want to serve King Junlin and send them to His Highness, where they will be dealt with by His Highness."
With someone taking the lead, the heads of other wealthy families came forward to speak, and their meanings were similar to those of the Zheng family head. In short, they just practiced "Tai Chi" and passed the current hurdle first, but no one mentioned the words of swearing.
.
Li Yuan's face became increasingly ugly and gloomy, and at this time, the hall became silent again.
Li Yuan wanted to order a few people to be killed, but he knew that this would probably cause trouble. After all, the power of every wealthy family in the military and in the government and the opposition should not be underestimated, so he hesitated and was still in doubt.
Li Jing watched this scene with cold eyes behind Li Jiancheng, sneering in his heart, thinking that Li Shimin should appear soon.
