Chapter 107

The battlefield where Li Shimin and Li Jiancheng fought was only at Xuanwu Gate.Because of Luo Yan's suggestion, the East Palace and King Qi's Mansion have not yet had any killings at this moment. Even if there are personal guards trying to break out with their family members, Fang Du and his two men have already brought a large army of soldiers and horses to destroy the two mansions. The siege was tight, so these people put out their thoughts of breaking out, and just confronted Li Shimin's men quietly.

Walking out of the Tai Chi Palace, the time is only at noon.Although the series of battles just now were thrilling, there was a stalemate for a long time when Xue Wanche and Feng Li led their troops to block the Xuanwu Gate.So, now that he was relaxed, Li Shimin suddenly realized that more than an hour had passed.

Standing outside the Xuanwu Gate, looking up at the scorching sun, the gloom suppressed by Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji for a long time was swept away at this moment.The unbearable scenes of the past were repeated before his eyes, but Li Shimin no longer had the anxiety of the past.

After standing for a long time, he came back to his senses.Without looking back, he just said softly: "Let's go." Then he got on his horse and led a group of people to the East Palace.

Naturally, Pei Ji was also with her.This person has always been Li Jiancheng's confidant and is usually relied on by Li Yuan, but at this time he can only follow Li Shimin silently.The purpose of this trip is to persuade the generals and staff of the Eastern Palace to surrender.And Pei Ji, who had a high status in the East Palace, naturally became the best candidate to persuade him to surrender.

To be honest, Pei Ji was really depressed when the person he had always favored and assisted died at this time.It's just that the matter has come to this point, and he can't help thinking about it. In order to keep a trace of Li Jiancheng's blood, Pei Ji has no choice but to be this bad guy.

In front of Li Yuan, Li Shimin promised to let the families of the two prefectures live, but if the people from the two prefectures don't know each other and arouse Li Shimin's ferocity, who can guarantee that they will not go back on their promises.Although Pei Ji is a veteran in the officialdom, after all, he has worked with Li Jiancheng for many years, no matter how indifferent, although he will not accompany Li Jiancheng to die, Pei Ji is still capable of protecting the family.

There was no words along the way, the clatter of horseshoes along the outer wall of the imperial city, stretching all the way to the gate of the East Palace, and then it came to an abrupt end.

At this time, outside the East Palace, there is one person at five steps and one post at ten steps, and the security is strict.Along the way, seeing that even with the towering palace walls behind them, these soldiers still looked serious and did not dare to relax at all, Li Shimin smiled with satisfaction.

It was Du Ruhui who came to surround the East Palace with Cheng Zhijie and others, because Li Shimin had said hello in advance, although these people wanted to storm in several times and slaughter Li Jiancheng's family members.But fortunately, there is Du Ruhui, who has always been a dignified staff member in the army. After thinking about it, Du Ruhui felt that right now he still has to rely on Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji's family members to recruit their old troops. It is really not good to kill rashly, so this Only then did he firmly persuade a few people.

Seeing Li Shimin coming, Cheng Zhijie said with some indignation: "Your Highness, the bastards in the East Palace are so ignorant. I will not open the palace door until I have finished my good words. If it is not possible, I will storm in and kill his mother directly." Yes." After saying this, Cheng Zhijie was still feeling uneasy, and spit towards the gate of the East Palace.

Fortunately, Li Shimin had been with these reckless people for a long time, so he didn't blame Cheng Zhijie's rude gesture, and turned his head to look at Pei Ji behind him.

Pei Ji naturally understood Li Shimin's meaning, he came here to do this, so regardless of Cheng Zhijie's displeasure from seeing him, after dismounting, he said to the stalemate soldiers above the gatehouse, "Let Li Gang come out and speak."

Pei Ji is an old man in the East Palace, and everyone in the East Palace naturally knows him.Now that Xue Wanche and Feng Li among the generals are gone, basically there is no one who can take matters into their own hands, so the leaders in the East Palace are Li Gang, Wang Gui, and Wei Zheng.And among these people, Li Gang's words are the most important. Who made this man win Li Jiancheng's trust after two dynasties?

Presumably, as long as the reasoning is clear, even if Wang Gui and Wei Zheng are tough, many generals will obey Li Gang's orders.

The soldiers guarding the gate immediately went to the East Palace to report. Now that Pei Ji and Li Shimin had appeared, the matter must have come to an end. It is indeed up to these big shots to decide how to deal with it in the end.Thinking that he waited for the little pawns, whatever the superiors said was fine, if he could save his life in this matter, he would be lucky.

At this time, Li Gang was comforting Li Jiancheng's family with Wang Gui and Wei Zheng.Although usually these family members would not appear in front of everyone, but now that the bad news came, Li Jiancheng was dead, and these weak children and weak women who lost their support naturally found these staff members immediately.

They don't talk when they meet each other, those who have children hold their children and cry, and those who don't have children hold each other and cry. In short, this is silent begging.Li Gang and the others naturally understood what these women were crying for, it was nothing more than saving their lives.But what more can they say.

Sending all the troops of the Eastern Palace to the gates of the palace, and stalemate with the soldiers who came, this is also a means they adopted to gain life, but they just hope that it can be used in a timely manner.I hope they can be like Boyi Shuqi, that is all a joke, if nothing else, Li Gang, if he wants to die, he will follow him when the former prince Yang Yong died, how can he live until now.

At this moment, the soldiers came to report that Pei Ji and Li Shimin came to talk to him. Li Gang looked at the others and saw that everyone nodded silently and did not speak, so he led a group of people to the palace gate.

This matter is very important, so no one wants to follow Li Gang to find out the news.So in an instant, the palace gate was firmly stood.

Seeing Li Gang coming with some kind of Li Jiancheng's staff, Pei Ji began to speak: "The crown prince and King Qi are dead, and the king of Qin personally promised in front of the saint that he will not let the prince and King Qi's family stay at all. Everyone, open the palace gate and descend to the palace. Bar."

I have to say that Pei Ji's words can capture the psychology of these people very well.why?
The first thing is to tell everyone that Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji are dead, and everyone's support is completely gone. This is the initial disintegration of these people's resistance.Secondly, tell these people that Li Shimin will not attack the families of Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji.This thing is intriguing.Since the family members of these two people were not targeted, then they were just working under their hands, and naturally they would not lose their lives at worst.It has two meanings, which not only make those who have been deeply favored by Li Jiancheng feel worthy of Li Jiancheng, but also let those who are anxious about their own lives get a promise.

In this way, basically everyone's resistance is said to be gone.

Combined with the many civil and military personnel who came with him, since they have taken care of everything that should be taken care of, people like themselves are still trapped here anyway, even if they try to resist, it is meaningless, so why not surrender like this.

When I was young, the gate of the East Palace was wide open, and a group of civil and military soldiers walked out of the palace gate one by one. Even the guards of the East Palace followed these people, came out one by one, and then threw their weapons on the side of the palace gate. The soldiers were taken to guard again.

When no one came out again, Li Jiancheng's family members were basically left in the East Palace.Now that he had promised not to move these people in the slightest, Li Shimin naturally had no interest in seeing Li Jiancheng's family members, so he waved his hand and recruited his own guards, and asked him to lead people to strictly guard the East Palace.

Of course, after these personal guards entered the East Palace, they would naturally check the population one by one, and they would report the situation to Li Shimin in detail.Relatively speaking, Li Yuanji's mansion was much easier to deal with. Fang Xuanling just led people there, and the soldiers guarding Qi Wang's mansion immediately surrendered.Li Yuanji's reputation in Chang'an was not as good as his two elder brothers, so in the end there was no confrontation like that in Donggong.

Now that Pei Ji had dealt with the two matters, Li Shimin let him go back to Li Yuan.

The people in Chang'an City only found out about Li Shimin's brother killing each other from different channels at this time.However, as soon as Li Shimin took over the military power, he immediately sealed off all the entrances and exits of Chang'an, and no one was allowed to enter or exit.At the same time, all the Jinwu Guards were dispatched to strictly inspect the streets of Chang'an City. They had already found signs of crowds gathering to make trouble, and they were arrested immediately regardless of the reason.

Such a decisive approach naturally achieved very good results.Some city rangers wanted to take advantage of this incident and take advantage of the chaos to make a profit, but they were all suppressed by the Jinwu Guard.Those common people were more ruthless when they saw the street patrollers than before, so they didn't dare to hang out on the street anymore, which relieved Li Shimin a lot of burden.

What happened at Ren Xuanwu Sect caused a lot of hype in Chang'an City. Li Shimin finally let go of his strong support, and drove his horse to the Qin Palace with a tired face.

At that time, when the rebels were about to attack the Prince Qin's mansion, Li Shimin was frightened.Although the throne has always been his dream, his wife and children are also his heart and soul. At that time, when Xue Wanche was leading people to kill Qin Wangfu, if Gao Shilian and the others had come a little later, Li Shimin would have absolutely desperately brought him with him. People rushed out.

Now basically everything is under his control, forcing Li Yuan to hand over the rights in his hands, Li Shimin was naturally excited and also very happy.But because of this, the suffocating energy in his heart loosened, Li Shimin really felt tired at the moment, and he just wanted to go back to the palace early and have a good rest for a day.

After all, when the court tomorrow morning, Li Yuan will hand over the power at hand to himself.Then the next step is to stabilize the situation, deal with government affairs, and then formally ascend the throne. After these things are busy, I will not be able to accompany my wife and children for a long time.

Even though Li Shimin has a tiger in his heart, he still has the time to sniff the rose carefully.

 Thank you Chili, Gargamel Jack, and Jiang Langshan Xia Dachenzi for your rewards, and thank you for the water spinach, no food, and come in to have a look. The two are very pertinent comments and pointers. Xiaodaohui will gradually improve the problems pointed out.Of course, there is no such ability to change the trail all at once.Today, the book review area made an exception and deleted two malicious bad reviews. I hope some book friends don't mind.Before I read the book, I came up and complained, this old man doesn't take care of me.The book review is justified, and I accept it humbly; maliciously swearing, I **** it.
