Sui and Tang Dynasties Summons

Chapter 474 Prelude to Killing

"Cheng'er, are you serious?"

Li Yuan was startled for a moment, then walked down suddenly, supported Li Jiancheng, and asked with a shocked face.

Li Jiancheng sneered, nodded emphatically, and said with a firm face: "That's true, I dare not tell half a lie!"

"That's great. If Chen Tian really dies suddenly, the Chen army will have no leader, and immediately withdraw their troops. The morale of the army will be slackened. The eldest son has made a great achievement!"

Liu Wenjing on the side heard the news and couldn't help clapping and cheering.

"Cheng'er, you saved my Tang!"

Li Yuan's brows were completely relaxed, and his face was full of joy. He never thought that his son would actually kill the King of Qiantang at a critical moment.

Thinking about losing Tongguan, this undoubtedly far outweighs the disadvantages.

Not only Li Yuan, but everyone in the lobby breathed a sigh of relief, as if they had escaped from death, and turned to look at Li Jiancheng with admiration.

"Li Shimin, I don't think you will die this time..."

Accepting everyone's admiration, Li Jiancheng sneered across the corner of his mouth, smiling so contemptuously.

……

Soon, Hangu Pass.

Received the news that Tongguan fell and Li Jiancheng's whereabouts were unknown.

The entire lobby fell into a dead silence.

Because of this battle, Chen Tian's troops did not decrease but increased, and after annexing Tongguan, his troops became stronger.

Li Shimin's eyebrows were full of regret, regretting that he had not gone to assist Tongguan, so now he can only use 14 troops to confront Chen Tian's [-] troops.

In this battle, the strength of the troops was very different, and the outcome was clear.

But apart from remorse, Li Shimin was more annoyed and complained, complaining about why Li Jiancheng was so incompetent that he couldn't even consume Chen Tian's troops at all but fueled them.

However, so far, Chen Tian is still not sure about Li Jiancheng's whereabouts, but judging that Li Xiaogong, Feng Li and others were all killed in battle, then Li Jiancheng's death in Tongguan is almost inseparable.

Zhuge Liang lowered his head and said nothing, because he insisted not to send troops at the beginning, which led to this end.

He was afraid that Li Shimin would suddenly vent his anger on him, so he hid in the crowd like a mouse at this time.

Li Shimin originally wanted to drag Zhuge Liang out and scold him, but it was not appropriate to shake the morale of the army at this time, so Li Shimin could only swallow this breath and let it go for now.

Now as long as Li Jiancheng is dead, he can pretend that he doesn't know anything, and Li Yuan has nothing to do.

At this moment, the sound of pattering footsteps sounded, and a soldier hurried in.

"What's the matter, so anxious!?" Li Shimin frowned, and suddenly a bad premonition came to his heart.

"Second Young Master... It's not good. Your Highness sent an urgent order. Because Second Young Master, you reported your personal revenge and disregarded the overall safety, causing the fall of Tongguan and the situation where Chang'an was at stake. Therefore, you are ordered to take back all your highness's military power and depose your highness as a concubine. People, and... moreover, we will send the Eldest Young Master to replace the Second Young Master to take charge of Hangu Pass, and the Eldest Young Master is leading five thousand troops on his way here."

"What did you say!"

Rumble!
It was like a thunderbolt struck Li Shimin's head fiercely.

Li Shimin felt his eyes go dark, and almost passed out.

"Second son!"

Seeing the situation, Yu Chigong and others hurried forward to support Li Shimin.

"He didn't die! He even sued my father... Father is going to abolish me now..."

Li Shimin muttered to himself with an unbelievable look, then suddenly came back to his senses, and asked, "I was wrong, but Li Jiancheng is the one who lost Tongguan. What right does he have to take me away?" everything of?"

Seeing Li Shimin's aggressive and ferocious look, the soldier clasped his hands tremblingly and said: "I heard from the people in Chang'an that the eldest son seems to have poisoned Chen Tian. The military power was given to him.”

Hearing these words, the people around were shocked and couldn't believe it.

"Fart! Such nonsense, who wouldn't! He actually made up an excuse and fooled the father, and the father really believed him!"

Li Shimin slapped the counter heavily again, breaking everyone's shock, and cursed Li Jiancheng viciously.

Because in his opinion, even if the sky is falling, it is more credible than Chen Tian being poisoned by him.

Fang Xuanling took a deep breath, stepped forward and cupped his hands heavily, and said, "Second Young Master, regardless of whether Chen Tian's poisoning is true or not, what we are thinking about right now is how to deal with Eldest Young Master, should we arrest him without a fight?"

Li Shimin's eyes were flickering with uneasiness and unwillingness. He was unwilling to be deposed like this, and he didn't want to be so forever.

At this time, the hatred for Li Jiancheng in his heart had risen to the extreme, a point that was about to explode.

"Second Young Master, if we are to strike later, it will be too late, and we will not accept the orders of the king outside, so we must strike first!"

At this moment, Zhuge Liang in the crowd suddenly stood up and said with a feather fan in his hand.

"That's enough, Kong Ming, you haven't hurt my son enough..." Du Ruhui saw that it was Zhuge Liang who spoke, and when he got angry, he wanted to step forward and reprimand him.

But was interrupted by Li Shimin.

"Wait a minute, listen to him..."

Zhuge Liang smiled coldly, and immediately continued to add so and so.

After listening, a strong murderous intent appeared in Li Shimin's eyes, and everyone couldn't help shivering. It was unexpected that Zhuge Liang would come up with such a poisonous scheme.

……

The next day.

Li Jiancheng led the [-] troops sent by Li Yuan, and brought Li Yuan's Wang Yu.

At this time, Li Jiancheng had arrived at the Hangu Pass city. Looking at the banners with the word "Li" fluttering in front of him at Hangu Pass, Li Jiancheng felt sullen.

If it weren't for Li Shimin's private revenge communiqué, how could Tongguan fall.

But fortunately, he escaped from birth and assassinated Chen Tian, ​​which was definitely an unexpected result for Li Shimin.

Right now, everything about Li Shimin will be taken away by Li Jiancheng, and Li Jiancheng has never thought of letting Li Shimin be demoted to a commoner, but what he wants is Li Shimin's life.

"Second brother, second brother, since you want to put elder brother to death again and again, then you can't blame me..."

Li Jiancheng thought in his heart, there was a hint of murderous intent on the corners.

He has been waiting for this day for too long.

Today is the time to end the grievances between brothers.

"I am the eldest son Li Jiancheng, so why don't you open the city gate quickly and let me in!"

Li Jiancheng stepped forward and shouted at the guards on the city gate.

The guard poked his head out and saw that it was Li Jiancheng leading the army, so they looked at each other and hurried forward to open the city gate.

After the city gate was wide open, Li Jiancheng led his army into the inner city, and the wanton wind blew the wanton yellow sand all over the ground.

It kept scraping the faces of the soldiers, mixed with a strange breath.

This inner city gave Li Jiancheng only one feeling, it was too quiet, so quiet that one could doubt it.
