Chapter 971 Start

"General Qibi, is everything as usual?" Li Jiancheng pulled Li Yuanji to the Xuanwu Gate and asked Qibi Heli.

In Li Jiancheng's eyes, although Qibi Heli is not his person, he is definitely not Li Shimin's person, but a person who is loyal to Li Yuan.After all, Li Yuan did not dare to let a loyal general guard the gate of the palace, even if the loyal person was his son.

Since he is not Li Shimin's person, the other party will not hide himself from those issues that do not involve secrets.What's more, he often secretly gave him some rewards on weekdays.

"Return to Your Highness, everything is as usual." Qibi Heli replied as usual.

Li Yuanji suddenly asked Qibi Heli, "King Qin has already entered the palace?"

"King Qin just entered the palace for a while." Qi Bi He Li replied calmly.

In fact, Qibi Heli was also panicked, after all, what he was about to do now was to be punished by the Nine Clans.He couldn't guarantee that if Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji continued to ask, he could still remain so calm.

At this time, even Li Shimin himself can't be calm, let alone how powerful he is.

"How many guards does King Qin bring?" The moment he asked this question, Li Yuanji suddenly realized that his question seemed a bit redundant.In the palace, even princes like them are not qualified to bring guards into the palace.

Sure enough, Qibi Heli's next answer also proved this point.

"Looking at what His Royal Highness said, according to the rules, after passing through the Xuanwu Gate, you will be inside the palace. Even if King Qin is a strategist general, he can't bring his guards into the palace. King Qin enters the palace alone." Qi Bihe Li said jokingly.At the same time, he also wanted to use this to ease the anxiety in his heart.

"Okay, Yuanji, don't worry. Since Shimin has already entered, you and I can't stay here any longer!" Li Jiancheng patted Li Yuanji's shoulder and said to the guards of the Eastern Palace behind him. , "You and the people of Prince Qi's Mansion are waiting under the east palace wall."

Sure enough, Li Jiancheng still knew how to be careful.The guards of the Prince's Mansion and Prince Qi's Mansion were waiting by the palace walls, so that even if something happened, these guards could provide immediate support.

"The final general understands!" The guard general of the Eastern Palace commanded.

This guard general is named Yeli Wangrong. He was originally a subordinate of King Xia Li Yuanhao. However, Li Yuanhao's power gradually declined under the attack of Li Yuan and his son. As a result, some of his subordinates would have some different ideas. .But at this time, Li Jiancheng made a decisive move and dug this Yeli Wangrong over.

After all, it was Li Yuan and his son who attacked Li Yuanhao, not only Li Yuan and Li Shimin, but also Li Jiancheng.It is not difficult for Li Jiancheng to take advantage of this opportunity to recruit a group of talents.

With the emergence of talents in Tiance Mansion, Li Jiancheng is also trying every means to expand his shogunate.Moreover, Yeli Wangrong was not the only one he dug from Li Yuanhao, but also Yeli Renrong who Li Yuanhao relied on as his mastermind.

Today, Yeli Renrong and Yeli Wangrong have become Li Jiancheng's right-hand man.Regardless of the fact that the official position of a guard general is not great, Nori Wangrong is very satisfied with this position.Li Jiancheng is willing to let him serve as the general guard, which shows that he is treating him as a confidant.When Li Jiancheng inherits the great power in the future, his benefits will definitely be indispensable.

Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji rode through the Xuanwu Gate, and soon after they entered, they felt something was wrong.It was so quiet, once passing the Xuanwu Gate, there was not even a shadow of a guard in sight.

"Brother, something is wrong."

It is impossible for the guards to be so lax in the palace, especially during this special time.

Li Yuanji reined in the horse and said anxiously, "Brother, retreat quickly."

Although he is young, he has more experience in leading soldiers in this life than Li Jiancheng.Li Jiancheng has been sitting in the center with Li Yuan, but Li Yuanji has gone to the front many times.Although he has never been a general, he has quite a lot of experience in fighting in battle.

In fact, among the brothers of the Li family, apart from Li Yuanba, who is a human-shaped nuke, Li Yuanji has the highest military strength, and a horse lance can be regarded as entering the family.

"Let's go!" At this time, Li Jiancheng also realized that something was wrong, and Dang even wanted to go back the same way.As long as they leave the Xuanwu Gate and meet with their guards, the potential danger this time will be resolved.

However, just as these two people kicked their horses and wanted to run back, the palace gate behind them began to close.

Seeing that the Xuanwu Gate behind them suddenly began to close, Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji felt a bad premonition in their hearts, and they quickly speeded up.Both of them have now realized that this time, the two of them may really be in danger.

Not far away from the palace wall, Yeli Wangrong was shocked when he saw the Xuanwu Gate that was about to close suddenly.

"The gates of the palace are not allowed to open and close at will during the day without reason. As soon as the crown prince and King Qi entered the palace, the Xuanwu Gate was closed. I'm afraid there will be changes!"

Several confidantes of Prince Qi's Mansion knew that the current situation was very tense, and they all shouted badly.A group of people immediately led their subordinates to rush to the city gate. If their master is finished, they slaves will not be able to recover.

"Close the door quickly, don't let them in!" Qibi Heli couldn't help but said anxiously seeing the soldiers still pushing the city gate slowly.At the same time, he did not forget to send out a few soldiers to stop Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, just in case something happened.

The soldiers tried their best to push the door, but still only speeded up a little.

In this scene, Bi He Li, who was in a hurry, rushed forward and pushed the city gate violently, and the speed of closing the city gate began to accelerate.

"Shoot the arrow!" On the top of the wall, the stubbornness that had been hidden all the time saw Yeli Wangrong rushing forward, and hurriedly ordered.

The soldiers under him were not the soldiers guarding the Xuanwu Gate at all, but were replaced by a unit that was absolutely loyal to Li Shimin. Zhang Gong releases arrows.

The arrow blocked Yeli Wangrong's charge and bought some time for Qibi Heli. He finally closed the gate before the other party rushed into the city gate.

Qibi Heli picked up the city gate bolt by himself and added it.

As soon as the door bolt fell, the Xuanwumen city gate was slammed.

Nori Wangrong and the others were still one step too late.

At the same time, when Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji sensed something was wrong and wanted to run back, Li Shimin also led the three hundred Xuanjia knights who were hiding aside to kill them.
