"Lord Wang, now our Qianniu Guards have been replaced inside and outside the palace, most of them are taken over by the death guards cultivated by the Tang Shengshang, and some masters of the Rebirth Realm are patrolling the imperial city, I'm afraid that the Datang Shengshang will return to heaven soon. Chang He Yu reported.

"A generation of heroes, don't underestimate it, although the Tang Dynasty does have a secret disease, in case he wants to make all the forces against the Tang royal family jump out by cheating death, and then use the power of Tianzun to wipe them out, so that the Tang Dynasty can be protected for ten thousand years. Ye Feng frowned and thought.

"If that's the case, then our Great Tang Saint is really bold, he dares to use Han Tiangang and other Tianyuan Realm powers, isn't he afraid?" Chang He was also surprised.

"I'm afraid, it's just a matter of using each other, Han Tiangang and the others need to use the power of the Tang royal family to eliminate us, and at the same time control the Tang Dynasty, he is just a reasonable agent, so this time we can't afford to lose, everything must be prepared." Ye Feng admonished.

"Rest assured, with the expansion of your strength, many Jiedu envoys are attached to our command and under your control, and I have ordered them to lead their troops to stand by, and once things change, they will rise up in various places to support our actions. And on the side of the capital, the two Davids are in your hands, and we have infiltrated most of the right guards over the years, and the royal family seems to have no more power except for the dead guards they have cultivated, so we have an absolute advantage on the surface. Chang He said confidently.

"In principle, this is true, but everyone understands the truth of the three caves of the cunning rabbit, just like where those dead guards came from, our spies have not been able to find out so far, in case there are more than so many of them, but they will catch us off guard. Ye Feng said worriedly.

After all, in this war, Ye Feng's enemy is probably Lu Xun, who has been cultivating in retreat recently, and has no time to take care of other aspects, which requires Chang He to coordinate everything, if a leader is blindly optimistic, it will be very unfavorable for the big war.

"The subordinates understand that the subordinates will immediately send our spies to search for clues about the Death Guard, I have to say that the combat power of these people is indeed strong, and the Thousand Niu Guards are the descendants of the Holy Guard, and they are not the opponents of the Death Guard in a one-on-one situation. "Chang He is also a positive color path.

"Well, tomorrow I will enter the palace to face the saint, and when the time comes, I will naturally be able to find out some clues, you let us hide all the power in Julu City, and not a single one can be exposed, this is our last hole card. Ye Feng ordered.

"The subordinates obeyed. Chang He said with a serious face, Julu City has hundreds of thousands of hidden soldiers, and there are a lot of True Destiny Realm masters cultivated in it, this is the resources that Ye Feng has collected for many years and cultivated with all his strength, and Chang He has also recently stepped into the True Destiny Realm in order to suppress these people.

The next day, Ye Feng and the others spontaneously went to the palace to face the saint, after all, the saint has been stubbornly ill for many days, and he has long stopped discussing it, so many forces want to see the situation of the saint, so they join forces to enter the palace and want to see the Tang saint.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the Holy One is in poor health, and today's court meeting continues to be canceled, so please go back. "Standing in front of the palace gate at this moment is Li Shimin, the third prince of the Tang Dynasty, who has not been seen for a long time, and after several years of holy training, he already has the breath of an emperor.

"The third prince, we are very concerned about the body of the saint, and we came here today because we want to see the saint with our own eyes, otherwise our hearts as courtiers will be uneasy. The first person to stand up and speak was the old Hu Xiang, who was about to be replaced by Gao Gong, but the Holy Admiral was deposed by Gao Gong, so he continued to stay in the position of Zuo Xiang.

A trace of gloom flashed in Li Shimin's eyes, he thought that leaving this old puppet would make him interested in himself and serve the royal family well, but he didn't expect to encourage the courtiers to meet him, which is really damned.

"Hu Xiang, now that your father is in poor health, you should take on the responsibility of appeasing the courtiers, and the result is indeed making the courtiers unstable, what crime should you be guilty of?" Li Shimin reprimanded dissatisfiedly.

Hu Xiang was not deterred by Li Shimin at all, and bowed slightly: "It is the incompetence of the old minister, but the safety of the saint is concerned with the safety of the entire Tang Dynasty. ”

"Hmph, clever words, could it be that this prince won't let you meet your father today, and you still want to break in? Don't look at what place this place is, where are the Praetorian Guards?" Li Shimin shouted, and the dead guards on the side came out one after another, surrounding the ministers one after another.

In the face of Li Shimin's domineering actions, Hu Xiang's face changed several times, and at this moment, Ye Feng and the others also arrived, looking at the scene in the field, they also pretended to be surprised: "What's the matter, what did you adults do? Need to use the Praetorian Guard? This is my loyal minister of the Tang Dynasty, how can he be treated like this?"

Li Shimin glanced at Ye Feng with complicated eyes, and sighed in his heart, Ye Feng was the son-in-law of a down-and-out prince, and his achievements were beyond the reach of these princes.

"King Ye is here, we are about to meet the saint and know the physical condition of the saint, but unfortunately the three princes are really hindering us, and even fighting each other, so that our old ministers are cold. When Hu Xiang saw Ye Feng coming, he also knew that today's events would inevitably be known, and he also had confidence.

"Oh, is that really the case? The patriarch of the Hu Xiang and the two dynasties, and the head of the civil ministers for many years, it stands to reason that he wants to meet the Holy Lord, but it is reasonable, I don't know why he refuse?" Ye Feng was puzzled.

"Ye Feng, this is the will of the Holy Lord, could it be that you want to disobey?" Li Shimin said angrily.

"Hmph, today's civil ministers and military generals are all gathered here, just to know the safety of the saint, so as not to be taken advantage of by some people to falsely pass on the will of the body, the third prince has not yet achieved that position, I am afraid that he has no right to stop us. Ye Feng shot back very unceremoniously.

"Where are the Praetorian Guards? If anyone dares to trespass into the Forbidden Palace, they will be killed. Li Shimin also said unceremoniously.

"Since the third prince insists on this, then Ye Feng is not polite. Ye Feng instructed Chang He beside him, "Bring in the 500,000 troops of Qianniuwei to surround the imperial city, today we must face the saint, if anyone stops, they will be killed." ”

Ye Feng's order made Li Shimin shocked, originally thought that Ye Feng was not ready for war and would not make a decision so easily, but it backfired, and it was difficult to ride a tiger now.

The army of Qianniuwei had already assembled in the imperial city, and after receiving Ye Feng's order, they even swarmed over, surrounding the dead guards, facing Qianniuwei, who was several times their own, these dead guards were still expressionless, which showed that their minds were imprisoned.

"Ye Feng, do you want to rebel?" Li Shimin glared angrily, mobilizing the royal guards, but only the power of the saint is the same, Ye Feng's move is a crime.

"This is not a rebellion, of course extraordinary means are used at extraordinary times, I suspect that the third prince Li Shimin has held the saint hostage and is ready to establish himself as the emperor, so he needs to be captured first, and then wait to meet the saint in person, and then make a decision. Ye Feng naturally would not fall behind in the general righteousness, and the two sides were at a stalemate for a moment.

At this moment, a eunuch hurriedly came to the gate of the palace and announced to everyone: "You Aiqing are worried about my body, I am very pleased, and let all the ministers of civil and military affairs enter the palace to face the saints. ”

"I'll just say that someone deliberately prevented us from facing the saint, and now that the holy decree has been issued, could it be that the third prince wants to resist the decree?" Ye Feng sneered.

"Hmph, withdraw. Li Shimin ordered at the death guards, and Ye Feng also left a divine sense on the bodies of these death guards, maybe there could be unexpected gains.

The ministers followed the eunuch to the holy palace, and at this moment, the saint was supported by the concubine, reluctantly sat up, and faced the ministers who were all spiritless, and reluctantly said: "I am terminally ill, and I know that time is short, since all the ministers came together today, I simply announced in public that the third son Li Shimin will be the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, and after I return to heaven, I will inherit my throne." ”

"No, since ancient times, the status has been the eldest son, the eldest prince Li Jiancheng is noble, and he is your eldest son, and his inheritance of the throne is a move to obey the heavens and the people. Hu Xiang was the first to stand up and object, and at this moment, everyone also understood that Hu Xiang had already stood with the eldest prince, so even if he offended Li Shimin, he would not hesitate to do so.

"I have made up my mind, so I don't need to say more. The saint coughed violently, and the sharp-eyed people could see that the saint's body was in a collapse, and the day of returning to heaven was not far away.

Ye Feng looked at this hero in detail at this moment, but no matter how he looked at it, he couldn't detect that the other party was cheating to death, could it be that he really couldn't do it?

"The last general is also opposed, the prince of Jiancheng is highly respected, and he has a reputation among the people, so I agree with Li Jiancheng as the prince, and I hope that the saint will reconsider. "This time, there are a few people in the military general sequence, although they are not the envoys of the festival in various places, but they also have a lot of military strength, which represents Li Jiancheng's strength to a certain extent.

However, all the ministers know that the strongest strength in the Tang Dynasty now must be Ye Feng, the head of the four kings, although the other three kings have no military power, but they still have some control over the armies in various places, who Ye Feng and others support, is who can make the throne belong to whom, otherwise it will be a comprehensive civil strife in the Tang Dynasty.

Weichen also thought that Li Jiancheng was enough to succeed to the position of the saint, and the third prince Li Shimin acted too domineering and was not the emperor's choice, so he still hoped that the saint would consider it. Ye Feng took a step forward and bowed to the saint.

With Ye Feng's beginning, all the generals supported Li Jiancheng one after another, and the Wenchen forces were also under Hu Xiang's hands, and the ministers of the court and the central government were opposed, which made Li Shimin's face extremely embarrassed.
