At this tense moment, Li Chengqian sent a telegram to Li You, hoping that he could return to China and go directly to Mount Tai to participate in the Taishan Zen Ceremony.

Kumamoto Castle, the mansion of the Grand Marshal of the Eastern Expeditionary Army.

Li You, Li Daozong, Monobe Taro and others were discussing the telegram sent by Wang Xuance, and everyone was very glad that Li You did not go to Fujiwara-kyo.

Monobe Taro is very nervous, he is worried about the safety of Monobe Taro and Kumiko, so Li You hurriedly finds a way to rescue them.

At this time, the magpie sent a telegram from Li Chengqian.

When Li Daozong saw Li Chengqian's telegram, he was startled, thinking that something had happened in Chang'an, and at this moment of the transfer of imperial power, don't go wrong, it is a fatal matter, and it is much more important than the attack on the Japanese slave country.

He said, "Your Highness, otherwise, you should go back first." I'll leave the matter here to the ministers. ”

Monobe Taro was even more worried, and he hurriedly said: "Your Highness, this place is already on fire, you are gone, what should my father and sister do?" ”

When Li You first saw Li Chengqian's telegram, he was also a little worried that something was wrong in Chang'an, but when he saw Li Chengqian's telegram, he didn't say that he was asked to go back because of something.

He smiled slightly: "It's okay, I won't go back, let's continue our plan here." ”

Monobe Taro breathed a sigh of relief, felt that Li You was reliable, and said sincerely: "Your Highness, I thank Your Highness for my father and sister." ”

"Your Highness." Li Daozong said.

Monobe Taro was worried that he would say something to persuade Li You to return to Chang'an, and stared at him with his eyes, if the gaze could kill, then Li Daozong would die.

Li Daozong was still a little worried, he didn't care whether Taro Monobe was happy or not, and reminded: "Your Highness, or His Royal Highness the Prince's affairs are important, if you are not at ease about the affairs here, just wait for you to come back and then launch an attack on the Japanese slave country." ”

Li You shook his head and said, "Don't worry, it's okay over there in Chang'an." ”

Li You is right, Chang'an is really fine here.

It turned out that it would soon be the day when Mount Tai was enshrined, although the eldest grandson Wuji, Wei Zheng, Fang Xuanling, Li Jing, Li Ji and other military and political ministers all expressed their support for Li Chengqian's accession to the throne after the Taishan Zen Ceremony, but Li Chengqian's heart was still a little unsteady.

Li Chengqian has been afraid of Li Shimin all his life, and this feeling has been engraved in his mind and melted into his blood. Although it was a helpless move to force Li Shimin to step down this time, Li Chengqian always had the feeling of being a chicken thief, and he didn't even dare to look directly at Li Shimin's eyes that could see through people's hearts.

Since Li Tai died, Li Chengqian did not go to see Li Shimin once, and even avoided Li Shimin when he sacrificed to his ancestors during the Qingming Festival.

In order to mediate the father-son relationship between them, Empress Changsun wanted to hold a banquet several times for them to sit together, but neither of them was willing, and Empress Changsun was very helpless and had to give up.

This incident is actually another repetition of the Xuanwumen Incident, but it was Li Tai who died, and Empress Changsun wanted to cry without tears.

The Xuanwumen Incident was when Li Yuan supported Li Jiancheng to persecute Li Shimin, and now it is Li Shimin who supports Li Tai to persecute Li Chengqian, and Empress Changsun had a premonition before Li Tai's death. Fortunately, this incident only killed one Li Tai, and there was no large-scale bloodshed, and the entire court smoothly transitioned.

Not long ago, the eldest grandson Wuji and Fang Xuanling, accompanied by the eldest grandson empress, advised Li Shimin to cede the throne to Li Chengqian. He didn't push back like his father did back then, greasy and crooked, and in the end it was very unpleasant, and he simply agreed.

However, Li Shimin's successor is not Li Chengqian, and the fact that Li Chengqian does not dare to come and face him makes him look down on Li Chengqian.

If Li Shimin said that he failed in the end, he was not defeated by Li Chengqian, but he was defeated by Li You, and Li Shimin still admired and appreciated Li You.

Not long ago, Li You informed Li Shimin of the situation in the Japanese slave country, saying that when he finished the battle, he was willing to accompany Li Shimin to travel around the world, and Li Shimin really had a little expectation for this matter.

Li Chengqian was not sure, and sent a telegram to Li You, hoping that he could come to participate in the Taishan Sealing Ceremony, so that they could face Li Shimin together.

To tell the truth, after reading Li Chengqian's telegram, Li You also felt a little awkward in his heart, in his mind, the person he respected and admired the most was Li Shimin, he was forced to launch a coup d'état this time, and seized the power in Li Shimin's hands, he knew that the loss of power, how big the blow to the strong Li Shimin was, he always felt a little sorry for his father in his heart, after all, Li Shimin was really good to Li You.

A big factor in why Li You ran out to fight the Japanese slave country wholeheartedly was that he was unwilling to see Li Shimin being forced to give up the throne with his own eyes.

Li You has always been a strong supporter of Li Chengqian, and no matter what kind of request he made, Li You never said a word. But do not do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Li You understands Li Chengqian's mood, but Li Chengqian doesn't know Li You's thoughts.

Li You sent a telegram back to Li Chengqian, saying that the big war was imminent, and he really couldn't leave.

Li Chengqian really understood Li You's feelings, and he sent this telegram to Li You just to talk to him and relieve his psychological pressure. Seeing Li You's callback, he shook his head with a wry smile.

Li Chengqian is really a little envious of Li You's freedom as a foodie, he is not a person with a strong desire for power, and he doesn't want to be the emperor. However, he had no choice, he was the eldest son and was born as a prince. There is only one way to go in this life, and other than that, everything else is a dead end.

Even if this little episode brought by Li Chengqian was in the past, Li You and the others continued to study how to rescue the Tang Dynasty mission and Monobe Kazuki and others.

At this time, the magpie sent another telegram, which was sent by the naval convoy.

Li You read the telegram, handed it to Taro Monobe, and said, "It's up to you to solve this matter." ”

It turned out that after Yi Daozong received the order, he mobilized most of the warships of the Baekje Governor's Palace, and under the cover of the navy, escorted all 50,000 Goguryeo new troops and 20,000 Baekje Tang troops to Kyushu Island. For the sake of secrecy, this matter was not reported to the naval army of Kyushu.

Just as the warships of the Tang Army approached the coast of Kyushu Island, they were intercepted by the Kyushu National Naval Army, and the two sides are now facing each other at sea, and there is a possibility of conflict breaking out at any time.

Monobe Taro stood up and said, "I'll deal with this matter, don't worry, after they go to the island, I will arrange a station for them." However, you have to take care of Fujiwara's side of things. ”

Li You smiled: "Okay, you go quickly, Jiumiko is not only your sister." ”

Kyo Fujiwara.

Qian Yu faced the expectant eyes of the eldest brother and the others, and said to the eldest brother and the prince, "Cousin, take a step to speak." ”

The eldest brother prince followed Qian Yu to the side and said to him: "This Li You is an impostor, really Li You didn't come, he has returned to Chang'an now." ”

The eldest brother prince was disappointed for a while, and after carefully inquiring about some relevant information, he said, "Cousin, thank you." The stakes are high, so be sure to keep it a secret. ”

Qianyu promised him to keep it a secret, and took his leave.

The eldest brother and prince looked at Qianyu's carriage and stood there stunned.

Seeing the appearance of the eldest brother and the prince, Zhongchen Kazuzu knew that things were not good, so he stepped forward and asked, "Your Highness, Li You didn't come, did he?" ”

The eldest brother bit his lip and nodded silently.

Soon after, Fujiwara Palace.

The eldest brother, the prince and the middle minister, Kamazu, begged to see the empress.
