Chapter 672: Cornered in a dead end

In the blink of an eye, it was three days, and the Taiyuan City at this time was no longer prosperous and lively three days ago, Yang Guang took the Praetorian Guard and the Weifu Army, a total of 80,000 people to conquer Taiyuan, such news made the people of Taiyuan City fall into panic and uneasiness.

The uneasiness of the people makes the Li family relatives in Taiyuan also feel very uneasy, this kind of thing is the clan, many times it will only be icing on the cake, as for how to send charcoal in the snow, most of them will say that they are afraid of the cold, maybe they are old, afraid of the cold, or they may say that they are not in good health, afraid of the cold, in short, afraid of death!

This group of clansmen who were afraid of death continued to be by Li Yuan's side, using all kinds of wonderful language, to describe in detail how terrible death was, and forcibly extinguished Li Yuan's determination to fight a lot.

Li Shimin and Li Yuanba have regained their freedom, the two of them and Wu Ming gathered in the study, Li Shimin said with indignation: "These damn clan relatives, I see that my father was moved by what they said, and the news I just got that Pei Ju was taken out of the cell." ”

Wu Ming said angrily: "Brother Li, I understand that you hate your clan, but I am not your clan's relative, is it really okay for you to spray me like this?"

Li Shimin smiled awkwardly: "Brother Wu, forgive me, I'm too excited!"

Wu Ming said righteously: "This is your mistake, Brother Li, do you know what is the most important thing for a man?"

Li Yuanba already knew Wu Ming's identity, and after the events of that night, he also admired Wu Ming very much, perhaps out of a desire to perform, he rushed in front of Li Shimin and asked, "Brother Wu, what is it?"

Wu Ming said: "The most important thing for a man is to control his emotions! A man, if he spurts because of a momentary passion, then he is definitely not a person who can achieve great things." ”

Li Yuanba scratched his head and said, "Why does this sentence sound weird!"

Li Shimin smiled: "Brother Wu, why can you say something so unserious every time?"

Wu Ming looked as solemn as an old master, and said: "An indecent heart will make a person see that everyone and things are not serious!"

。。。。。。。 Li Shimin hurriedly changed the topic and said: "The current wind is very unfavorable to us, I'm afraid that my father will really be persuaded by those clansmen!"

Wu Ming said: "Judging from the current posture of Yang Guang, in fact, there is not much room for peace talks, unless your father is stupid and can accept the conditions of the special pit, otherwise there is basically no need to talk about it! So Brother Li, you don't have to worry too much about the possibility of peace talks, now I am more worried about why Pei Ju didn't leave." When you were discussing in the Assassin's Mansion that night, Li Jiancheng had already given him the news, but he didn't leave, which made me feel very strange!"

Li Yuanba said: "Maybe our city is tightly defended, and he didn't succeed?"

Li Shimin said in a preacher tone: "Yuanba, you can't look at the surface of many things, the eldest brother wants to send someone out of the city, then it can be done no matter what." ”

"Second brother, then why didn't the old man leave?"

"I think there is only one reason, that is, he has a reason to stay, and he is sure that his life will not be threatened, Pei Ju is not Pei Feicui, that old fox will not sacrifice his life and die for Yang Guang like Pei Feicui!"

Li Shimin looked at Wu Ming and asked, "Wu Ming, since you already feel strange, why don't you investigate the reason?"

"I checked, I didn't find anything, since I found out about the existence of this old man, I let people keep an eye on him, but I didn't find any contact with anyone, after he was arrested and put in prison, we searched his room, and we didn't find any magic weapons for communication, and the luggage he brought was clean and frightening. ”

Li Shimin thought of a possibility, and he said in a deep voice: "The arrest was arranged by the eldest brother that day, if there is a problem, it should be the eldest brother's problem!"

Li Yuanba asked: "The eldest brother is not a stupid person, his father's attitude was very resolute that day, how could he dare to stand with Pei Ju?"

Wu Ming thought for a while and said: "It should be the interests that bind the two of them together, maybe it is Pei Ju's power to ensure his safety that makes Li Jiancheng feel that it is a powerful help, so in the case of disadvantages, Li Jiancheng is willing to take risks to get this power?"

Li Yuanba asked, "What are the interests that allow them to stand together?"

Wu Ming glanced at Li Yuanba, obviously unwilling to answer his weightless question.

Li Shimin took Wu Ming's words and explained to Li Yuanba: "For them, I estimate that the biggest common interest is my life. ”

Li Yuan slapped the table angrily and said, "How can this be reasonable, second brother, why don't we go over and tear them up now?"

Li Shimin smiled helplessly, Wu Ming directly rolled his eyes to the sky, and said: "Brother Li Yuanba, you go playing, I have something to say with your second brother!"

Li Shimin interrupted Li Yuanba, who was about to speak, and said: "Yuanba, your kindness second brother understands, but this matter is not as simple as you imagined!"

Li Shimin looked at Wu Ming and said: "Brother Wu, what strength does Pei Ju have to rely on, this matter may have to trouble you to try your best to investigate, now the scout camp in Taiyuan is still in the hands of my father, and the power I can investigate is very limited, and I am really powerless." ”

"Don't worry, this Brother Li, I'm particularly interested in unsightly things, and doing things secretly is particularly exciting!"

。。。。。。 "Okay, thank you Brother Wu!"

The next day, Yang Guang's Longting fell to Chang'an, and the Weifu Army, as the vanguard, entered the Taiyuan territory again, and the forbidden army came to Chang'an, which was only a stone's throw away from Taiyuan.

The army was about to be approached, and the Li family relatives increased the pressure on Li Yuan, and in the face of the pressure from the clansmen, Li Yuan finally agreed to meet Pei Ju in person, and told Pei Ju the idea of hoping to fight for peace talks.

After listening to Li Yuan's story, Pei Ju made an embarrassed appearance and said: "Lord Li, the original saint was full of sincerity, but he was so troubled by your second son, and now it is really difficult to talk." ”

Li Yuan sneered and said, "If it weren't for the alertness of the people, Taiyuan City would have been opened by your Weifu army now. ”

Pei Ju said: "I also think this matter is strange, but when I was directly accused by the eldest prince, I also complained again and again, I believe there must be some misunderstanding in this matter!"

"Okay, Master Pei, if we don't say secret words, I will think it is a misunderstanding, so do you think there is still a possibility of peace talks with the Holy Lord at this time?"

Pei Ju thought for a while and said: "After the saint came from Yangzhou, he felt that the second son of the Li family was very close to him, and the little girl was also very appreciative of the prince of the world when she was alive, if Brother Li was willing to let the prince of the world serve in front of the emperor, I believe that the saint would be magnanimous!"
