The Emperor of Chu was trapped in a gentle countryside and never tired of it.
Outside Wudu City, the Wuyue Empire's army withdrew, posing no threat to the Chu army and Overlord's army in the city for the time being.
However.
now.
In the Longtang Empire, in Longdu, a war that could not see the smoke of gunpowder began quietly.
Li Shimin secretly united with the commander of the imperial guards to control the Dragon Emperor Li Yuan. At the same time, his generals Li Ji, Cheng Yaojin, Hou Junji, and Duan Zhixuan secretly controlled the palace.
Inside the Yangxin Hall.
Li Shimin and Li Yuan confronted each other, and all the servants were expelled. Only his father and son were left in the huge palace.
"King Qin, do you want to disobey and rebel?"
"My father is old and it's time to take good care of himself. I am sharing my father's worries!"
Facing Li Yuan's anger, Li Shimin did not get angry, and his low voice sounded without any hint of fear.
"Share my worries. The prince is still alive. Even if I want to live a long life, it will not be your turn to be the master of the Longtang Empire."
"Someone reported to me that you had the intention of treason, but I never believed it. I just ordered that your military power be taken away and you were kept in seclusion in the palace of the King of Qin. I didn't expect that you were still so restless and self-defeating."
"Rebellion?"
"Father, how can my sons and ministers have the intention to rebel? The prince is incompetent. If Longtang is handed over to him, I am afraid that after this Hundred Kingdoms War, our long-lasting foundation of Longtang will be destroyed."
"In terms of meritorious deeds and virtuous governance, there is nothing better than the prince. All civil and military officials in the dynasty hope that the son can lead Longtang to go further."
"Right now, the first-level empires such as Great Khan, Great Qin, Great Han, Huan Yun, etc. are secretly mobilizing their forces, seemingly intending to dominate the world. At the same time, there are many strong risers among the second-level empires, and there is also the third-level Chu Kingdom, which is feared by other countries. Everyone is thinking about unifying the world, but my father is content with the status quo. Isn’t this putting the dragon and the Tang to death?”
"As long as my son ascends the throne, he will sweep all directions, unite Liuhe, swallow up eight wastelands, unify the world, and establish hegemony in all things."
Li Shimin had a ferocious look on his face and shouted loudly, as if he had released all the anger that had been suppressed in his heart for so many years. Li Yuan looked at the split-eyed, cold and terrifying Li Shimin in front of him. He didn't recognize him. He was still gentle and elegant in normal times. King of Qin?
"People of the world are in troubled times. The best thing to do is not to fight. The world is in chaos, but Longtang is not involved. I am conserving my strength and waiting for the opportunity."
"Why have all the countries of the first rank been in peace and harmony for so many years? Everyone knows that the kings of all countries know that a single move can affect the whole body, and even the slightest carelessness will burn them all."
"I am very pleased that you have great ambitions, but you are not suitable to be the king of the Longtang Empire. The prince has a gentle temperament and far-reaching wisdom, so he is the best candidate for the king."
"Take your people from Prince Qin's palace and leave. I will name you King Shenwei and go to Longzhou to stay!"
Li Yuan's imperial majesty was still there, sitting domineeringly with a disheartened look, waving his hand to signal Li Shimin to leave, a sharp killing intent appeared in the depths of his slightly narrowed eyes, but it was fleeting.
"King Divinity?"
"The prince is the best candidate!"
"Then today I will help my father get rid of the best candidate. The prince is dead, and the world belongs to me."
Li Shimin chuckled lightly, turned around and ordered: "Go, send the edict to the East Palace, and ask the prince to come to Yangxin Hall to meet the Holy Spirit!"
"Sir, what do you want to do?"
"Father, the entire dragon is already under the control of my son, and the palace is full of his trusted soldiers!"
"From the East Palace to the Yangxin Hall, you have to pass through the Xuanwu Gate. I happened to have ten thousand soldiers deployed there. They have always been very dissatisfied with the prince. If he does anything extraordinary, I can only defend the prince's brother.
Feeling sorry."
Li Shimin laughed ferociously, stood up and walked towards Li Yuan, raising his hand to remove the imperial seal from the wooden case. At this moment, Li Yuan became furious and revealed his murderous intent, raising his hand to attack Li Shimin.
"boom!"
A loud noise was heard, and Li Yuan stepped back, spitting out a mouthful of blood, and fell onto the wooden couch.
I saw Li Shimin flicking his sleeves, a terrifying coercive force rising around his body, and a shadow of a divine dragon entrenched on his figure, making him horrified and horrified.
"Possessed by a real dragon!"
"The power of the Holy Emperor, when did you..."
"Father, there are some things that you don't need to know too clearly!"
"Father, do you think there are any problems with your son inheriting the throne now?"
Li Shimin had a sharp expression and a domineering voice. Although he still called Li Yuan his father, his aura was completely superior to him.
"I always thought the rumors were false, but I didn't expect that you actually received the inheritance of the Holy Emperor. Everything was destined."
"I can pass the throne to you, but you must not harm Jiancheng and Yuanji's lives."
Li Yuan was depressed and looked gloomy. He expressed the hope that Li Shimin would let Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji go, but he laughed coldly and clearly had no intention of letting them go.
"The Xuanwu Gate has ten thousand powerful troops. If the Crown Prince and King Qi are lucky enough to escape, I will spare their lives."
"Father, please take good care of yourself in the Yangxin Palace. Tomorrow, when I ascend the throne, I will have to trouble my father to come to you for everything."
Li Shimin fluffed his sleeves and turned around to walk out of the Yangxin Hall. He suddenly stopped a hundred meters away and said: "The prince and King Qi had a secret meeting with Emperor Chu in Qin Yuecheng. The two of them have been bewitched by Emperor Chu. Father and king cannot blame his son and minister.
Cruel-hearted, Emperor Chu is the initiator of their deaths."
The words fell.
Li Shimin left the Yangxin Hall, and when he was done, he ordered the soldiers outside the door to strictly guard Li Yuan and not allow anyone to come into contact with Li Yuan.
at this time.
East Palace.
Prince Li Jiancheng received the edict summoning him to the palace from Li Yuan, and ordered his servants to go down with the eunuchs to receive the reward. His eyes passed over Liu Wenjing and Li Yuanji.
"The palace is not peaceful today. Gu always feels that something is about to happen."
"Ling Fa and Ling Tu went to the palace to check the news, but there is no news yet?"
"Back to your lord, the two generals Ling have not sent back any news."
Feng Li stood up and raised his fists and said, Li Jiancheng waved for him to take a seat and said: "Yuan Ji, the Emperor Chu's brochure mentioned that when the father summons him alone, he will not be able to go. He has been pretending to be ill during this period, but he is fine.
.”
"But I've been pretending to be sick for two months. I'm afraid it's a bit abrupt. Have you ever gone to check out the Feixian Restaurant in the city?"
"We have already been there. The token left in Emperor Chu's brocade bag is very useful. Once something happens in Longdu that threatens my brother, Feixian Restaurant can help us escape from Longdu."
Li Yuanji's eyes flickered, and a firm voice sounded. Liu Wenjing looked sideways at the sky outside the palace, with a melancholy look on her face, and said in a low voice:
"I hope the King of Qin will not do anything to disrupt the Tang Dynasty. Otherwise, the Long Tang Dynasty will be divided into two. Whether he can survive the Hundred Kingdoms War safely is not yet known."
At this moment.
Outside the main hall of the East Palace, there was a rush of footsteps, and two figures appeared in Li Jiancheng's sight. He saw two generals, Ling Fa and Ling Tu, approaching in a hurry.
"Your Highness, something big has happened in the palace. Your Highness and King Qi must leave the East Palace immediately. King Qin's troops will probably come to the East Palace soon."
"The King of Qin still took action!"
"Yuan Ji, Feng Li, Xue Wanche, Wen Jing, everything went according to plan. They withdrew from Longdu and led troops to Longzhou. In addition, they handed the letter written by Gu Gu personally to the people of Feixian Restaurant to the Emperor of Chu."
"King Gu is willing to form an alliance with Emperor Chu to fight against Li Shimin together!"
Li Jiancheng stood up, an angry voice sounded, he grasped the broad sword at his waist, stood up and led everyone outside the East Palace. (To be continued)
