Chapter 196: Rebellion
Li Xiaochang's reaction seemed to tell Li Shimin that all this must not be simple.
"Qian'er, what's going on?"
Li Shimin asked again.
And Li Chengqian said directly: "Father, this matter is very important, you must be mentally prepared!" ”
"This ......"
As soon as these words came out, Li Shimin's face became very puzzled.
And the eldest grandson queen is even more puzzled, what is the matter, you need to be mentally prepared.
She looked around again, and her half-brother, Eldest Sun Anye, was actually inside.
As far as she knew, this eldest grandson An Ye didn't learn or know, and generally good things wouldn't find him.
He can become such a big official, but also because of the relationship between the eldest grandson and the queen.
Now that he's with these people, something must have happened.
"Big brother, what's going on?"
She asked first.
The eldest grandson, Anye, was silent and bowed his head in shame.
Li Shimin said: "Qian'er, what's the matter? Say it! I'm dying! ”
Not only was he anxious, but Empress Eldest Sun was even more anxious.
And Li Chengqian has to talk about this matter, after all, those few people who participated in the rebellion can't say that they want to rebel, right?
"Zhijie, what's going on?"
"This, I have to talk about it with His Royal Highness the Prince!"
Cheng Yanjin said.
Li Chengqian didn't say anything at the moment, but looked around, and when he looked at Xu Jingzong, he bowed his head and said nothing.
Looking at Li Xiaochang again, he didn't dare to speak, he could even feel that Li Xiaochang was trembling at this time.
As for the others, he didn't look at them.
Because just now he used capital punishment to them, and they recruited them too.
"Qian'er, what's going on?"
Empress Eldest Sun also asked.
"Father, Li Xiaochang wants to rebel, and together with the eldest grandson Anye, Liu Deyu and others, they tried to start a rebellion next month, and said that they would take over the emperor's harem and kill all your children!"
As soon as these words came out, Li Shimin's face was already quite ugly.
The rebellion was a big deal, and it was just over a year since the last one.
At that time, it was Luo Yi's rebellion, and thinking about this thing still makes people feel a little uncomfortable.
Before Luo Yi rebelled, he was given the surname Li and named Li Yi, but later because of the rebellion, his surname was also deprived by Li Shimin, saying that he was not qualified to have the surname Li.
It is said that at that time, Luo Yi pretended to be a secret edict and commanded his troops to enter the court, and took advantage of the situation to occupy Fengzhou on the way. Li Shimin ordered the eldest grandson Wuji and Wei Chi Jingde to lead troops to attack Luo Yi. Before the imperial army arrived, Zhao Cihao conspired with Yang Qi, the commander of the army, to kill Luo Yi, and the matter was leaked, and Zhao Cihao was arrested.
Yang Qi noticed a change outside the city at that time, and hurriedly led his troops to attack Luo Yi. Luo Yi was defeated, abandoned his wife and children, and led hundreds of cavalry to flee to the Turks. When they arrived at the border of Ningzhou and passed by the Wushi Post Station, the people who followed them gradually fled, and they beheaded Luo Yi left and right, and sent his head to Jingshi. The imperial court hung his head in the market and restored his original surname Luo. Luo Yi's brother Luo Shou, who was the governor of Lizhou at the time, was also killed.
At that time, this incident hit Li Shimin very hard, but he didn't expect that there would be another Li Xiaochang now, but the existence of his own uncle.
Rebellion is such a thing, and we must be cautious again and again.
Therefore, Li Shimin did not give a sentence.
Instead, he asked, "Is this true?" ”
Cheng Yanjin echoed on the side: "Yes, yes, yes, the minister can also testify!" That's it! ”
"You bloody mouths! Your Majesty, this is nothing, it is the prince who wants to put his subordinates to death! ”
Li Xiaochang flatly denied it, and this time he said that he could not admit anything, because this was a crime of killing his head, and all the people in his palace might have to die.
"Li Xiaochang, you just admit it, maybe the emperor will open the net!"
Cheng Yanjin said so, but then so.
But it's impossible.
What emperor would allow a rebel to live in this world?
That's a serious threat to his rule.
Anything you say will kill these rebels.
Li Xiaochang understands this very well.
No matter what he said, Li Shimin would definitely kill him.
Because of such a rebellion, the chances of surviving are zero!
"Li Xiaochang! This person is here, what else do you have to say!? ”
Li Chengqian said so.
Unexpectedly, Li Xiaochang said: "They must have been bought by you, I don't believe it, they must have been beaten into a trick!" ”
If he wanted to say that, it was really hard to say.
The more Li Xiaochang is at this time, the more he feels that life is precious, and being able to live is the best result.
Therefore, even if he was killed, he could not admit that he was going to rebel.
No matter what he said, the three people who came out just now were constantly sighing.
It seems to say that he is struggling pointlessly.
They were all watching Lee Hyo-chang perform.
"Li Xiaochang, you still recruit, we are all bewitched by you!"
The eldest grandson Anye said.
"Yes, we wouldn't be like this without you!"
Du Caigan said.
"If it weren't for the position of general you promised, I wouldn't have promised you!"
Yuan Hongshan said the same.
In this way, the certificate is complete.
Li Chengqian glanced at Liu Deyu.
"Liu Deyu, do you want to live? Then come out and testify against this person, otherwise you will only have a dead end! ”
Li Chengqian said.
Liu Deyu hesitated.
Finally, he said:
"Yes, it was Li Xiaochang who deliberately led us to rebel!"
"Nope! You can't target me like this, Your Majesty, I'm wronged! It's wronged! ”
But Li Shimin didn't believe him.
"If one person says you rebelled, I don't believe it, but all four say you rebelled, it must be true."
Empress Changsun came out and said: "Li Xiaochang, the emperor is not thin, I gave you a king of Yi'an, but you are not grateful, you want to rebel, such a behavior is really despicable!" ”
At the same time, she looked at the eldest grandson Anye, why would he also be involved? Now the eldest grandson's family may have one less man, no matter what, he can be regarded as his brother.
"Wronged, Your Majesty, they have united to slander me! Emperor! ”
Li Xiaochang is still doing the last stubbornness, but the more this happens, the more useless it is.
After all, the witnesses are all there.
"Father, the son has two more items for him to say nothing!"
Li Chengqian said at this time.
Li Shimin asked, "What is it?" ”
"Father, look!"
After that, Li Chengqian gave the order.
"Someone, pass things on!"
Li Chengqian said.
At this time, several soldiers brought their things up.
When they brought the things up, Li Shimin saw it, and the whole person was fixed there.
"Li Xiaochang, what's going on!? Why are you doing this? You must give me a reasonable explanation, or I will raid your house!" ”
Li Shimin was really angry at this time, because these two things of Li Chengqian made him realize that Li Xiaochang was really going to rebel.
