Chapter 668: A Relaxing Time Before Departure

Taiyuan City Assassin Mansion, Li Yuan, as usual, got up and left the bedroom just after Mao Shi, and practiced in the courtyard of the mansion in the morning, in order to maintain his combat power level.

Before a set of sword techniques was completed, the soldiers hurriedly ran in.

Li Yuan stopped his movements, returned to the scabbard, and asked in an unkind tone, "What does it look like to be so flustered?!"

The government soldier knelt on one knee, holding the cotton roll in both hands, and said, "Scout battalion urgent." ”

Li Yuan pulled the cotton roll from the hand of the government soldier, he opened it and looked at it, and his anger suddenly made his face red! Under the flash of blue light, the cotton roll turned into nothing in his hand!

"Call Li Shimin and Li Yuanba to me!" Li Yuan threw down a sentence angrily and returned to his study.

About half an hour later, Li Shimin went to the Assassin's Mansion with Li Yuanba's support, and after learning that the place where Li Yuan summoned them was the council room, Li Shimin said with a smile: "It seems that my father is very angry with us!"

Li Yuanba said with a smile: "I've also been miserable all these years, and I have always been asked to hide my strength, Yangzhou once in order to let me represent what bullshit Tiandao Academy played, and also used magic weapons to suppress my realm, after so many years, how can I be so happy last night!"

Li Shimin said with a smile: "Yuanba, you don't have a grudge, after all, my father still loves us, and he is different from my eldest brother!"

When the two came to the council hall, Li Yuan roared angrily: "You guys kneel down for me!"

Li Shimin and Li Yuanba knelt down Just after kneeling, Li Yuan stood up, pointed at Li Yuanba's nose and asked: "I have never let you show your strength in front of others, you are good, you will directly cause trouble for me last night!"

Li Yuanba defended: "Father, I'm helping our Li family kill the enemy!"

"Kill the enemy?!! who is the enemy of the Li family!!Who told you that General Yu Jin is the enemy of the Li family!"

Li Yuanba said angrily: "They all came to Taiyuan City with 30,000 people, and they are not the enemies of our Li family, do you want them to attack Taiyuan City!?"

Li Yuan scolded: "You shut up for me!"

Li Yuan looked at Li Shimin and asked coldly, "You told Yuanba that they were the enemies of the Li family, right?"

Li Shimin said without humility or arrogance: "Yes, my father! Yang Guang wants to put his father to death, and he wants to put the Li family to death, isn't the army sent by such a person still the enemy of the Li family?"

Li Yuan raised his foot as if he was about to kick Li Shimin, but seeing that Li Shimin was covered in injuries, he stopped, turned back to his position directly, and said: "From today onwards, Li Shimin and Li Yuanba have returned to the house to think about it, and no one is allowed to see the two of them!"

Li Shimin and Li Yuanba were pressed back to their mansions by the soldiers of the Assassin's Mansion, and then guarded by the men and horses of the city defense battalion.

Just half an hour after Li Shimin left, Li Jiancheng hurriedly came to Li Yuan, and after hurriedly saluting, he asked directly: "Father, is what you mean about last night?"

Li Yuan said angrily: "If I knew, where would such an action happen!"

Li Jiancheng said: "I thought it was what you meant, father, so I really admired my second brother more and more, just with the little men and horses he could mobilize, he actually caused the Weifu army to lose more than 4,000 people in battle, and the military rations were destroyed by seventy or eighty percent, and even Yu Jin was killed!"

Li Yuan's eyes widened and said, "Yu Jin is dead?"

"The people of the eldest grandson family have spread the word throughout Taiyuan City, if there is no definite evidence, they dare to say this! I estimate that it should also spread in the army now, my second brother is really strategizing!"

Li Yuan showed a worried expression and said, "Shimin is really too reckless this time, in this way, we can only fight against Yang Guang!"

Li Jiancheng immediately knelt down and said, "Father, think twice! Now fighting against Yang Guang is indeed doing a lot of harm to our Li family!"

Li Yuan said: "Is Pei Ju still in Taiyuan?"

"Master Pei didn't leave, I had already gone to explain to Master Pei before I came here, although he was angry, he was also quite reasonable, he also felt that the court and the Li family should not confront each other, so he fell for Yang Xiao's trick, which would only make the Tang Sect happy!"

Li Yuan said: "It's better to build you safely, the people of the world are good at fighting, but in terms of being a person and doing things, it is far less than building you, so let's help me talk to Pei Ju first, and see what kind of way to make the Li family and the court not have to fight each other." ”

After leaving the Assassin's Mansion, Li Jiancheng went to Pei Ju's place and did not return to his mansion until early afternoon.

At this time, Wei Zheng and Li Xiaogong were anxiously waiting in the mansion, and when they saw Li Jiancheng coming back, Li Xiaogong began to eagerly inquire about the situation.

After listening to Li Jiancheng's narration, Li Xiaogong suppressed his anger and said in a deep voice: "Isn't Pei Ju's request just to go against the Li family?!"

Wei Zheng took over and said, "General Li, I don't think Pei Ju's words are nonsense, but if this condition is told to Lord Assassin, he will definitely not agree!"

Li Jiancheng said: "What Brother Wei said is that I know my father best, although he is usually always angry with the second brother, but I know that he still has the position of the second brother in his heart, if he wants to use the second brother's life in exchange for the pacification of Yang Guang's anger, I believe he will never agree!"

Li Xiaogong said: "Don't talk about uncle, if you let the rest of the Li family know this condition, then they will directly choose to fight with the imperial court, Jiancheng and Brother Wei Zheng don't know it, today Uncle Shentong heard the results of the Shimin, and directly let people celebrate with wine in the mansion, saying that the Li family has such a god of war reincarnated in the world, and he is not afraid of Yang Guang at all, and the Taiyuan garrison is 50,000, if the Shimin is in charge, maybe Luoyang can be broken directly!"

Wei Zheng asked meaningfully: "General Li, do you also think that Li Shimin is the hope of the Li family?"

Li Xiaogong said: "Brother Wei Zheng, don't test me, have I had fewer contradictions with the people of the world over the years? If he gains power, how can I, Li Xiaogong, have any good fruits to eat!"

Li Jiancheng said coldly: "If it is really provoked to fight with Yang Guang, then the second brother will definitely be in command of the battle, and when the time comes, he will have the power of the army, and where will I have any good fruits to eat!"

Wei Zheng said with a cold look in his eyes: "Childe, Pei Ju's request must not be known to Lord Thorn Shi, Lord Thorn Shi is very troubled now, I think it's time for you to share your worries for Lord Thorn Shi!"

Li Jiancheng made a gesture to wipe his neck and asked, "Brother Wei said we should do it?"

Li Xiaogong showed a murderous aura and said: "Completed, I think Brother Wei's words make sense, now that Li Shimin's palace soldiers are finished, he and Li Yuanba are both secluded in the mansion, at this time, if we want to share our uncle's worries, I believe there is still some certainty!"

Li Jiancheng's eyes flashed with a complicated light, and he said after a while: "After all, that's my second brother, let me think about this matter!"

Wei Zheng arched his hand and said: "Son, when you are decided, you should continue to suffer from it!"

Li Jiancheng was silent again for a while, the responsible look in his eyes was gradually replaced by a fierceness, and he whispered to himself: "Shimin, you forced me to do so!"
