Chapter 608: Burning the Mansion of the King of Shu
Li Su couldn't help but smile slightly, and then asked: "If my father is unwilling to make a move, who and who can threaten this king in Chang'an City?" ”
Shangguan Yi said seriously: "Your Highness, your subordinates think that the eldest grandson Wuji will definitely attack His Highness." Moreover, he will also receive a certain degree of acquiescence from the emperor. The place where they will attack will most likely be the Shu Wangfu of His Royal Highness. ”
Li Su is in Chang'an City, and there is also a Shu Palace.
Although he has not lived in it for many years, there are servants left behind in it who clean and repair it every year, and after Li Su returns, he will definitely live there.
After pondering for a while, Li Su couldn't help asking: "However, since my father and the emperor have issued an edict, if this king does not go, wouldn't it be a blatant disobedience?" ”
Shangguan Yi smiled slightly and said, "Your Highness can pretend to be sick!" pretending to be terminally ill shows that it is not that he is not obeying the edict, but that his body really can't go. ”
Well, yes, it's a good way to do it.
However, this is not what Li Su wants.
In the last time, Li Su also wanted to meet Li Shimin.
Li Su couldn't help but say: "This king still decides to go to Chang'an. ”
Seeing Shangguan Yi excitedly trying to persuade himself, Li Su couldn't help but say: "Shangguan Changshi, this king knows what you want to say, but this king also has this king's considerations. ”
"Moreover, the people in this world who can kill this king are afraid that they have not yet been born! If the eldest grandson Wuji wants to deal with me, this king still wants to see what kind of means he has? ”
Li Yu smiled, and then said to Shangguan Yi: "Shangguan Changshi, the matter of Jiannan Dao, please leave it to you, everything, let you worry about it." ”
Hearing what the King of Shu said, Shangguan Yi knew that the King of Shu had already made up his mind, and it was difficult to persuade him to move.
couldn't help but say: "This is all a matter of subordinates, Your Highness doesn't have to worry." ”
In fact, Shangguan Yi is quite familiar with the ability of the King of Shu.
Shangguan Yi didn't feel that what the King of Shu just said that the people in this world who could kill him were not born yet, was bragging.
The King of Shu is too powerful, how many times has he encountered crises?
Wasn't that time a murderous turn into good fortune and a good fortune?
Shangguan Yi feels that the King of Shu is born with great luck and is a true son of heaven!
Of course, in fact, only Li Su himself understands that he was really bragging just now.
Is there anyone who can't be killed?
But if he just goes to Chang'an, as long as he doesn't waste himself, it will be really difficult to die.
He has a system that allows him to buy tear gas, incendiary grenades, grenades, and other weapons at any time.
It can be said that it is possible to create a chaotic scene at will.
Then he naturally had other ways to leave quickly.
Therefore, even if the eldest grandson Wuji really wants to deal with him, it will be dangerous.
In the end, Li Su only took Li Yuanfang and other ten guards and took the train directly into Chang'an.
And the king of Shu's entry into Beijing, especially the entry of only ten guards into Beijing, caused a sensation.
The current situation is tense, not to mention those civil and military ministers, even the ordinary people of Chang'an have felt it.
In the hearts of these ordinary people, the King of Shu will be more or less disobedient.
As a prince, how could he be completely indifferent to that position?
They still thought that this time the King of Shu would not dare to come to Chang'an!
Even if they come, I am afraid that they will bring tens of thousands of soldiers and horses outside the city to play a deterrent role.
But what they didn't expect was that the King of Shu came to Chang'an City almost alone.
This made the public opinion of the people instantly tilt towards the side of the King of Shu.
For the emperor, the king of Shu really doesn't have the slightest disobedience!
If the emperor makes any moves, what is it really ......
In the palace, when the King of Shu had just entered Chang'an, Li Shimin learned the news.
Li Shimin, who was lying on the bed, suddenly let out a long sigh.
Then he glanced at Concubine Yang, who was serving beside her in undressed, and only felt that the guilt in her heart was even worse.
Soon, the king of Shu went to the palace to meet the emperor Li Shimin.
After seeing the King of Shu, Li Shimin couldn't help but retreat, leaving Li Su alone.
Obviously, father and son have an important conversation to discuss.
Li Shimin, who was originally lying on the bed, suddenly sat up.
Li Su hurriedly stepped forward to help Li Shimin put the bed quilt behind him and let him lean on.
Li Shimin looked at Li Su with deep eyes, and then asked seemingly casually: "Su'er, you must know the reason for summoning you back this time." What does Father want to hear from you? Which of your brothers do you think is more suitable to be the emperor? ”
Li Shimin's words excluded Li Su almost from the beginning.
If Li Su was really taken into consideration, I am afraid that he would not have asked so much.
Of course, this may just be a strategy by Li Shimin.
Hearing Li Shimin's question, Li Su smiled and said: "Father, the son thinks that if you talk about it from the side of your son-in-law. Of course, it was Li Tai, the king of Wei, and Li Zhi, the king of Jin. ”
However, Li Tai, the king of Wei, was narrow-minded and did not tolerate people. If he becomes the crown prince, I am afraid that none of our brothers will be spared. ”
And Li Zhi, the king of Jin, is still young, more than generous, and lacks prestige. If he is made the crown prince, he is only afraid that the Tang Dynasty will be in danger of losing power. ”
In the original historical trajectory, Li Zhi was synonymous with the fall of power.
Of course, in this world, Wu Zetian, who can make him fall from power, has been taken away by Li Su.
But if Wu Zetian is gone, won't there be a Liu Zetian and Zhang Zetian?
Li Su continued: "When I was filming the heroes of the Sui and Tang dynasties before, the sentence that Erchen heard the most was King Qi. ”
"They all said that when King Qi and his father were young, they were almost identical."
"Moreover, King Wen of Qi is martial and heroic, isn't he the best candidate for the crown prince?"
Hearing Li Su's words, Li Shimin couldn't help but be slightly surprised.
He originally thought that Li Su would recommend himself and recommend himself as the crown prince.
But unexpectedly, he finally recommended his brother Li Ke.
Li Shimin glanced at Li Su deeply, and then said: "However, behind King Qi, there is no support from the family gate, so it is difficult to sit in this position!" ”
Li Su smiled slightly and said: "Father, behind King Qi, there are still sons!" And the sons believe that the family gate valve is actually the silverfish of the country, they are attached to the country and suck the blood of the country, and sooner or later, the country will be sucked down! ”
"Therefore, Erchen will help his brother to eliminate the harm of the family's gate valve in the next ten years."
Li Shimin glanced at Li Su deeply again, and his face suddenly showed a look of exhaustion.
Then, he couldn't help but say to Li Su: "Su'er, your words, my father will consider it carefully." Now, my father is a little tired, and if you want to rest for a while, you can go down first! ”
"Yes, father, you rest, and your sons and daughters will retire."
After Li Su left, Li Shimin's face became extremely complicated.
Until this time, he was still weighing the pros and cons.
And the goal he weighed was naturally between the King of Qi and the King of Jin, constantly swinging.
Li Ke, the king of Qi, is most like him, and Wen Taowu is definitely the best candidate.
But King Qi is a concubine, and what is even more fatal is that his mother is Concubine Yang, a former Sui princess.
Behind him, there is no support from the family.
Of course, behind him stood the King of Shu.
However, if you look at it from an orthodox point of view, the most suitable candidate is still Li Zhi, the king of Jin.
Why did there be a rule in the past that the elder does not establish the young, and the grandparents do not establish the concubine?
Just because there are no rules, there is no circle.
With this rule, it will reduce a lot of internal friction.
Without this rule, the country would be mired in endless internal strife.
But Li Shimin himself broke this rule first.
If the throne is passed to the King of Qi again, then this rule will be completely messed up.
At this time, a person walked out of it, it was the eldest grandson Wuji.
Li Shimin really trusts the eldest grandson Wuji, and this kind of father-son dialogue deliberately allows the eldest grandson Wuji to eavesdrop inside.
Li Shimin didn't look at the eldest grandson Wuji, but sighed, and seemed to say to himself:
"Auxiliary, the position of the crown prince, let's pass it on to King Qi!"
The eldest grandson Wuji said expressionlessly: "Your Majesty, but the King of Qi has the blood of the former Sui royal family flowing in his body, and the people of the world will not agree!" ”
Li Shimin's face sank and said: "However, he is also my flesh and blood, he is literary and martial, and he is most like me." Give him the throne, I can rest assured. ”
The eldest grandson Wuji still insisted: "Your Majesty, but since ancient times, there has been a tradition of passing on the heirs but not the concubines. The king of Liqi is the crown prince, and he will be left with endless troubles for future generations. ”
Li Shimin said forcefully again: "Auxiliary, I have made up my mind, and there is no need to say more." Also, I warn you, don't touch the King of Shu, otherwise, don't blame me for not being merciful and exterminate your eldest grandson! ”
This is a heart-wrenching statement!
At this moment, Li Shimin still made a decision to pass on the throne to the King of Qi.
Because only by passing the throne to the king of Qi can the power be handed over most smoothly.
Li Shimin didn't want to mess around now.
Hearing Li Shimin's words, the corners of the eldest grandson Wuji's mouth couldn't help twitching.
After a long time, the eldest grandson Wuji said: "The old minister understands, the emperor rests, and the old minister retires." ”
It's a pity that Li Tai, the king of Wei, is too stupid, and Li Zhi, the king of Jin, is too young and indecisive.
The eldest grandson Wuji knew very well in his heart that if the emperor really made King Qi the crown prince.
The other princes may be able to be saved.
But his eldest grandson Wuji, and even the eldest grandson's family, will definitely be defeated.
The new emperor will never let him go.
The king of Shu was moved, and the eldest grandson was destroyed.
The king of Shu, the eldest grandson, will still be destroyed.
Moreover, as long as he can successfully destroy the King of Shu, maybe there will be a glimmer of life.
After leaving the palace, after the eldest grandson Wuji returned to the house, he immediately gathered all the manpower in the palace.
"Tonight, the old man wants you to rush into the Shu Palace, kill the Shu King, and burn the Shu Palace."
"All the power we have secretly cultivated is activated, even if everyone dies, we must kill the King of Shu!"
In the eldest grandson's mansion, a group of dead soldiers were secretly cultivated, and in fact, Li Shimin also knew about this matter.
But Li Shimin did not know the specific number of dead soldiers in the Changsun Mansion.
The eldest grandson, Wuji, secretly cultivated a total of 1,000 dead soldiers, and if you count the guards in the mansion, there are 1,500 people.
In the palace of the king of Shu, there are a total of ten guards.
In the opinion of the eldest grandson Wuji, even if he takes a pile of people, he can kill the king of Shu.
Of course, if the King of Shu dares to bring such a small number of people to Chang'an, there will inevitably be his followers.
But now the eldest grandson Wuji can't take care of so much.
Kill the king of Shu, their eldest grandson still has a glimmer of life.
Otherwise, you will have to wait for death slowly.
Next, the eldest grandson Wuji continued to send people to make various arrangements.
Dispatching 1,500 people in Chang'an City is bound to alarm the city defense soldiers.
It will even alarm the officers and soldiers of the Sixteenth Guard.
If the officers and men of the Sixteenth Guard were to be dispatched, it was very likely that his plan would be ruined.
The eldest grandson, Wuji, must take care of all this beforehand.
Of course, with the power of the eldest grandson Wuji, it is not difficult to get all this.
After all, most of the civil officials actually supported the faction of the King of Wei or the King of Jin.
That night, the moon was dark and the wind was high, and it was the day of murder and arson.
Two more ten, 1,500 black people, quickly set off from around the Shu Wangfu and broke into the Shu Wangfu.
The palace of the King of Shu was dark, without the slightest light, and it looked lifeless.
After all, even in the various rooms, there doesn't seem to be the slightest popularity.
Could it be that the entire Shu Wangfu is an empty city?
Shouldn't it?
All afternoon, they were closely monitoring the Shu Palace.
They saw with their own eyes that the king of Shu and his ten guards never came out after entering the mansion.
They must have been in the house at this time.
However, their attention was all on the King of Shu and the ten guards.
What they didn't notice was that all the servants in the Shu King's Mansion today never returned to the mansion after leaving the mansion.
And these 1,500 people in black, since they entered the mansion, their every move has been under the surveillance of Li Su, the king of Shu.
Seeing this scene, Li Su quickly lit a torch and lit a huge thing in the courtyard.
As the flames raged, Li Su and the ten guards quickly stepped into the basket.
That's right, as you can imagine, it's exactly a hot air balloon.
This is also a strategy that Li Su has prepared for a long time to get out.
Do you not have a great number of dead men?
Hum! This king has a hot air balloon.
Li Su quickly cut the rope, and the hot air balloon quickly rose into the air.
The light of the fire here startled fifteen hundred dead soldiers.
They quickly chased in the direction of the balloon rising.
It's a pity that by the time they chased after them, the hot air balloon had already risen rapidly into the air, and it had risen to an altitude of nearly 100 meters at this time.
The 1,500 dead soldiers quickly took out their crossbow arrows and shot them at the monster in the sky, trying to shoot it down.
It's a pity that the range of their crossbow arrows on flat ground is more than 100 meters.
But this is at a high altitude, and the range is difficult to reach 100 meters.
And the hot air balloon is still rising.
Their crossbow arrows can't touch the hot air balloon at all.
What made them even more angry was that the falling crossbow arrows had particularly injured many of their own people.
The black light blinds, and arrows fall from the sky, and it is difficult to defend against them.
Basically, it all depends on Meng.
Meng was in the right direction, dodged, and this time it passed.
If you can't hide from it, it's likely that this life will pass.
At this time, Li Su, who was in the sky, pressed a few buttons in his hand.
Rumble!
Rumble! Rumble!
The outer houses of the Shu Wangfu suddenly exploded.
Although the explosion was not loud, it was a raging fire that spread too quickly.
Almost instantly, all the surrounding houses burst into flames, and they quickly burned into the house.
In the middle, fifteen hundred dead soldiers, their faces were ugly and terrifying.
Although they are dead, they are not willing to make senseless sacrifices.
But now, they have been surrounded by raging fires, such a big fire, I am afraid that it will be difficult for them to rush out.
They quickly searched for water, tried to soak their clothes with water, and then found a relatively safe place to lie on their stomachs to see if they could escape.
But to their great disappointment, no, they couldn't find a single piece of water at all!
It seems that they have been cleaned up in advance, and this is a rhythm that doesn't give them a way to live.
The raging fire in the palace of the king of Shu woke up countless people in Chang'an City.
They got up from their beds one after another, stood in their own courtyards, and looked in the direction of the Shu Palace.
There was a fire in the palace of the king of Shu, is this the emperor, finally made a move on the king of Shu?
"Look! Look at the sky! ”
Because of the fire in the Shu Palace, many people ignored the hot air balloon in the sky at first.
Now, hundreds of people are looking up at the hot air balloon in the sky.
I couldn't help but let out bursts of exclamations.
There was no reason, they immediately concluded that the sky was flying on the fireball, and the King of Shu would definitely be inside.
It turns out that the King of Shu has been on guard for a long time!
Sure enough, the omnipotent King of Shu is still the omnipotent King of Shu!
At this time, Wuhou Pu and the soldiers of the Sixteen Guards were all alarmed.
In fact, they already knew, but they were given orders to pretend not to know and pretend to be deaf and dumb.
But now it's too big, and the Shu Wangfu is burned like this, and it's impossible for them to think of it.
Their chief also complained in his heart about the eldest grandson Wuji.
This time it's too big, it's over if you kill someone, put such a big fire to dry your hair?
They quickly dispatched troops, hoping only that the people of the eldest grandson Wuji had completed the task.
That's all they can help.
Changsun Mansion, Changsun Wuji looked at the fire rising into the sky in the Shu Wang's Mansion, and looked at the hot air balloon that was gradually moving away in the sky, and suddenly a bad premonition rose in his heart.
In the palace, Li Shimin looked at the fire rising into the sky of the Shu Palace, and looked at the hot air balloon that was gradually moving away in the sky, and a wave of anger suddenly surged in his heart.
"Check! Check it out to me right away, what the hell is going on? Shu Wangfu, why did it catch fire? What's going on? ”
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
In the palace of the king of Shu, the fire spread quickly and the fire was fierce.
Fifteen hundred dead men, like headless flies, scurrying everywhere.
However, they could not have rushed out of such a large fire.
They could only let out a terrible cry of terror, and then gradually they were engulfed in flames.
In the sky above Luoyang City, under the annotation of countless Chang'an people, the hot air balloon floated all the way, and it didn't take long to come to Chang'an City.
Under Li Su's control, the hot air balloon slowly landed.
After the fall, several people stepped out of the hot air balloon.
Li Yuanfang said nervously: "Your Highness, there is only a train tomorrow, how should we leave?" ”
"Now we must guard against Changsun Wuji sending troops out of the city to chase and kill, and if we leave by train tomorrow, we must also beware of him directly sending troops to ambush at the train station."
"It would be nice if we had prepared in advance, at the very least, if we had a car, we would be able to leave the road."
This time, it came very hastily.
Originally, Li Yuanfang also decided to make enough preparations in advance, but Li Yu didn't let him make any preparations.
Now, a group of eleven people, outside Chang'an City, they don't even have a horse.
Once the eldest grandson Wuji sent someone to chase and kill, it would be difficult for them to escape.
And the eldest grandson Wuji will definitely send someone to chase and kill.
At this time, even Li Yuanfang, who was strong in martial arts, panicked.
He himself is not afraid, what he is afraid of is that he will not be able to protect His Highness.
At this time, I only heard Li Su smile and said, "Don't worry, this king has already been prepared." Wait here, I'll come as soon as I go. ”
……
At this time, in the eldest grandson's mansion, there were people who came to report to the eldest grandson Wuji.
"Master, the King of Shu had prepared in advance, and after our people entered, they left from the sky in a flying fireball."
"And our people, after entering the Shu King's Mansion, the people of the King of Shu set fire outside, and our people are only afraid, but I am afraid that they will not be able to come back."
"The latest news I got now is that the flying ball that the King of Shu rode has now left Chang'an City. However, he didn't fly too far and landed outside Chang'an City. Sir, what should we do now? ”
The eldest grandson Wuji's face was gloomy, and the corners of his mouth jumped suddenly.
Unexpectedly, the King of Shu was prepared for a long time, and he actually lured him to take the bait!
If they can't kill the King of Shu today, then it will definitely be the beginning of the nightmare of their eldest grandson.
Thinking of this, the eldest grandson Wuji couldn't help but say in a deep voice: "Send people out of the city and destroy the King of Shu at all costs!" He must not be allowed to leave Chang'an alive! ”
"Master, but now that the city gate is closed, our people can't get out at all!"
"Rice bucket! The gates are closed, and you can't go out by the walls? Remember, no matter what, the King of Shu must be eliminated! ”
"Yes, master, I'll arrange it!"
After the housekeeper went down, the eldest grandson Wuji's eyelids jumped.
The eldest grandson Wuji suddenly had a bad premonition, and he felt that this time, he was afraid that the eldest grandson family would be defeated in his own hands.
Soon, the housekeeper of the Changsun Mansion sent more than a hundred people.
Ordered them to quietly go out of the city and hunt down the king of Shu.
These more than 100 people are the few people in the eldest grandson's mansion.
In the battle of the Shu King's Mansion just now, the eldest grandson's family invested almost all the shadows, in order to completely eliminate the King of Shu.
I didn't expect to be burned by the King of Shu.
Now these 100 people are already the last bit of strength in the Changsun Mansion.
And these more than 100 dead soldiers, they actually went down through the hanging baskets on the city gate.
In other words, the officers and soldiers defending the city gate were also infiltrated by the eldest grandson's family.
This is their last resort, and they must kill the King of Shu!
At this moment, outside the city, Li Yuanfang and other ten guards were waiting anxiously.
Suddenly, there was a roar ahead.
This sound is clearly the sound of a locomotive.
But Li Yuanfang is very familiar with all the existing locomotive sounds, and he has never heard this kind of sound.
This is a kind of locomotive that has never been seen before.
