Chapter 500???? In a desperate situation
Li Shimin's loss of control made the whole world tremble, but this was a good thing for Li Chengqian.
The more perverse Li Shimin is, the more he will be forced to abdicate in line with the principles of heaven and the people, and the more he will be recognized by the world and future generations.
Therefore, when Li Chengqian heard the news from Chang'an, he took the initiative to give Li Shimin a handle.
The news of his killing of tens of thousands of Goguryeo soldiers was reported back to Chang'an City, and public opinion was in an uproar for a while.
The court is now Li Chengqian's political enemy, and he is very critical of this.
The people believe that because of Li Chengqian's conquest of Goguryeo, which led to the disaster of the demon path to the country, it directly or indirectly led to the death of the imperial grandson and the crown princess, and it is understandable that Li Chengqian killed tens of thousands of soldiers.
Some people even think that this is "angry at the crown and become a red face", and say that it is a beautiful talk.
The most puzzling thing is Li Shimin's attitude, after receiving the minister's impeachment of Li Chengqian's cruel and murderous recital, he should have used this to severely punish Li Chengqian, but he only issued an order to reprimand him.
However, the two edicts issued by Li Shimin the next day clearly showed his determination to abolish the crown prince.
Edict: Li Shimin, the secretary of the Ministry of War, returned to Beijing to report on his work.
Everyone thinks that Li Shimin is the biggest helper who wants to cut off Li Chengqian.
Edict: Bow down and violate the peace, and the ruling is not enough. Chang'an's military affairs are of the utmost importance, and no one can be left to take care of them. Li Zhi, the king of Jin, has a valuable character and has been successfully trained, and he knows the military affairs of the left and right guards from now on.
The left and right guards are the barracks of the Taiji Palace, which is a vital place within the Xuanwu Gate.
Li Shimin's intention of handing over these two places to Li Zhi couldn't be more obvious.
So the eldest grandson Wuji and others played the table one after another, asking the abolished prince to take over.
When such news reached Fuyu City, Li Chengqian only laughed when he heard it, and then ignored it.
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, Your Majesty is bewitched by demons, why aren't you angry?" Liu Kui next to him asked with a worried look.
Li Chengqian's narrow eyes narrowed when he heard this, and he said indifferently on his thin face: "Everyone in the world knows that this is a chaotic fate, so why should the lonely king be afraid?" β
Li Chengqian said so, bowed his head and continued to read.
After a while, Li Chengqian raised his head, looked at Liu Kui and asked, "The Lonely King hasn't been to the camp in the past two days, how are the wounded and recuperating?" β
Liu Kui listened and hurriedly replied: "Everything is fine, the wounded man bathed in the grace of His Royal Highness the Prince, and was carefully treated by the doctor, and he recovered quickly."
Except for those with broken legs, they will be able to go on the road in about ten days. β
Li Chengqian sighed slightly, nodded and understood.
Xue Rengui has led the crowd to Yalu Water for more than ten days, and even the young men of the Khitan and Xi tribes left two days ago.
Another reason is to wait for these wounded soldiers to recover.
Thinking that the wounded soldiers would recover from their injuries, he would also set off to ...... the front line, and then return to Chang'an with the merit of destroying the country......
Thinking of this, Li Chengqian couldn't read quietly, so he slowly got up and walked out.
"Liangdi and Li Bai where they go, the road is safe, right?"
Li Chengqian leaned on crutches and asked as he walked:
Liu Kui was protecting Li Chengqian and replied: "Counting that the day is almost to Luoyang, everything is fine on the road!" It's just that His Majesty sent Cheng Yanjin to Luoyang, not only forcibly invited away the coffin of the grandson, but also took away His Royal Highness King Yan and Wang Fangyi. β
Although he had known that this would be the case for a long time, Li Chengqian was still shocked when he heard it.
Although Li Xiang has always called him "Father" since he crossed over, the relationship between the two is even more brotherly. He spoiled Li Xiang from a trembling child to a high-spirited young man, and his feelings for Li Xiang were far-reaching, and he was in Chang'an.
Li Xiang also admired Li Chengqian very much, even if Li Chengqian told him that he would be sealed on a desolate island in the future, he did not complain at all.
Thinking of the abuse that Li Xiang might have suffered in Chang'an, and even the possibility of losing his life, Li Chengqian really wanted to rush back to Chang'an immediately and kick Li Shimin, a bastard, off the throne.
Liu Kui, who was next to him, heard Li Chengqian's "squeaking" and grinding his teeth, his face turned a little pale, and he was really worried that Li Chengqian was going to do something again.
In the end, I just listened to Li Chengqian's instructions: "Feige sent a message to Chang'an, let them take care of Xiang'er, and forcibly rescue him and Wang Fangyi when necessary......"
Liu Kui peeked at Li Chengqian's demeanor, thinking that he still had something to say, but he waited for a long time, but saw that Li Chengqian never said the following words, so he bowed down to accept the order.
didn't know that Li Chengqian hated his incompetence in his heart and couldn't protect innocent children.
I don't know how long he stood there, Li Chengqian still sighed helplessly and walked out slowly.
As you walk, you repeatedly admonish yourself in your heart:
Datang can't be chaotic now, Datang can't be chaotic now, Datang can't be chaotic now......
β¦β¦

"His Royal Highness the Crown Princeβ"
Cheng Wuting's anxious voice came from outside the hospital.
Li Chengqian, who was walking in the courtyard, was shocked, and hurriedly stopped and looked at the door.
After a while, I heard the sound of fluttering footsteps, accompanied by the sound of clattering nail leaves, and then I saw Cheng Wuting, who was wearing dozens of pounds of armor, jumping into the door.
"What happened to Wu Ting?"
Li Chengqian didn't wait for Cheng Wuting to salute, so he raised his hand to stop him and asked.
Cheng Wuting hurriedly saluted Li Chengqian, but said loudly to Liu Kui: "Liu Neizhi quickly clean up, I want to protect His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and go to the Yalu Water Camp." β
Liu Kui's face changed in fright when he heard this, and he was stunned.
Cheng Wuting was in a hurry, and he couldn't care about anything, so he urged loudly: "Liu Kui, go quickly." β
"Bang"
"Cheng Wuting, do you dare to shout in front of the Lone King?"
Seeing that he was being ignored, Li Chengqian slammed his crutches and shouted at Cheng Wuting.
Cheng Wuting hurriedly turned his head to look at Li Chengqian, only to see Li Chengqian glaring at him. was a fool in his heart, and hurriedly explained: "His Royal Highness the Prince, something has happened!" β
Li Chengqian was silent, still looking at him expressionlessly.
Seeing this, Cheng Wuting reported to Li Chengqianyu in detail: "The Turkic Helu led 100,000 cavalry and went straight to Fuyu City, and the last general was ready to lead 2,000 soldiers to escort His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to the Yalushui camp. β
Li Chengqian nodded expressionlessly, looked at Cheng Wuting and said: "Although the lonely king is sick, he is not confused, it is impossible for you to take the lonely king away while you are in chaos, don't think like this in the future." β
Cheng Wuting saw that his mind was seen through by Li Chengqian, his face turned red with shame, and he didn't dare to say more, but he bowed down again and said, "Please ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to give the order to drive to Yalu Water." β
"Why don't you clean up yet!"
Liu Kui, who was next to him, listened and gave orders to the waiters in the courtyard.
Li Chengqian thought for a while, shook his head and said, "No need, the Lone King will meet Helu's 100,000 cavalry here." β
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, no!"
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince......"
Li Chengqian raised his hand to stop them, and said with a solemn expression: "Here are 8,000 soldiers who were injured in the last battle, and only 2,000 can ride horses. β
Cheng Wuting was stunned by Li Chengqian's question.
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, if a gentleman does not stand under the dangerous wall, you are a golden body, and you can't take risks because of this!" Shangguan Yi said as he walked into the courtyard.
Li Chengqian looked at him and said lightly: "You came up with the idea just now, right?" β
Hearing this, Shangguan Yi generously admitted: "It's the minister who is smart!" β
Li Chengqian looked at it expressionlessly and said: "There is an eldest grandson Wuji in the capital, he has figured out His Majesty's thoughts, and now he is doing whatever he wants in Datang, which has become a disaster for the country." β
Shangguan Yi's face turned pale with fright when he heard this, and he hurriedly bowed down and said secretly: "The minister deserves death." β
Li Chengqian's voice couldn't hear any emotion: "You are also out of kindness, so I won't pursue it this time, but I won't take it as an example." β
"His Royal Highness Prince Xie."
Li Chengqian ignored him anymore, but looked at Cheng Wuting, who was sweating on his forehead, and asked, "Where is Helu?" β
Cheng Wu hurriedly replied: "The cavalry led by He Lu is still fifty miles away from Fuyu City. β
"Pass the order, and the lone king will live and die with this city."
