Inji Palace is located between Changan and Gyeongju. Seeing Li Shimin leading his troops to the battle, Li Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.

However, this Renzhi Palace was built deep in the mountains, and Li Yuan has always used it as a summer retreat. And at this moment, the vegetation is lush and easy to cover, if Yang Wengan sends light cavalry to raid Renzhi Palace, then he can't stop it!

Thinking of this, Li Yuan couldn't help but panic. So, he summoned the soldiers of the Yulin Guard, who served as guards, and descended the mountain from the south overnight.

I didn't go down the mountain, and suddenly I saw a brightly lit camp in front of me. Li Yuan took a look, and it turned out to be a fortress fence left in the Northern Wei Dynasty.

Who is inside this fort? Li Yuan couldn't help but be a little puzzled. Immediately asked the Yulin guards stationed at the foot of the mountain.

"Back to Your Majesty, these people are the subordinate officials and guards of the East Palace. Today, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came to Renzhi Palace and left these subordinate officials and guards here! A captain of the Yulin Guard replied.

Li Yuan's expression changed suddenly, and then he said casually: "Then let's go and take a look!" ”

As he was talking, he suddenly saw the gate of the fortress open, and the subordinate officials inside poured out and came in the direction of Li Yuan.

Li Yuandao pointed at those subordinate officials and said, "A team of thirty people, look at them all!" ”

More than 100 soldiers of Yu Linwei immediately guarded these subordinate officers. And Li Yuan also spent the night in this fortress.

On the second day, Li Yuan returned to Renzhi Palace.

Zhang Yunwen was a little helpless. He looked at the pieces of information in front of him and sighed slightly: "Alas, what a big deal this time, the prince is actually fine!" ”

A piece of information said that Feng Deyi was running around the court, making contact with each other and trying to rescue Li Jiancheng.

And another piece of information said that Li Yuanji and his concubines took turns to intercede for the prince.

This inside and outside, one family, one country, and two places came to intercede at the same time, and Li Jiancheng was fine.

Another piece of intelligence was reported by the military, saying that Yang Wengan had captured Ningzhou, driven the people and officials out of Ningzhou, occupied the city, and built a fortress.

"Headache, headache!" Zhang Yunwen stroked his forehead.

"Your Majesty, although the crown prince has made mistakes, he has already sincerely repented, so why bother him again! Look at the few days he has been imprisoned in Renzhi Palace, he has lost almost a few pounds without thinking about tea and dinner all day long! ”

On a wide incense couch, covered with a pink gauze tent, and covered with a smooth and delicate satin quilt, Li Yuan sat next to a charming woman, her tender hands wrapped around Li Yuan's neck, and she was blowing the "pillow wind" to him.

This woman is Concubine Yin De. This is the third time she has interceded with Li Jiancheng.

Li Yuan's big hands suddenly grabbed Concubine Yin's slippery little hands, and said gently: "Concubine Ai, do you know what he is doing?" He's plotting rebellion! Tell me how I'm going to let him go! ”

Concubine Yin De said affectionately: "Your Majesty's words are a little inaccurate!" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is your biological son, what can you do against it! Besides, now that he is the crown prince, it is only a matter of time before he enters the East Palace and ascends the throne. Why did he go back and take this risk! Well, do you say yes, Your Majesty! ”

Li Yuan couldn't help but nodded.

Concubine Yin De saw the opportunity and said: "Maybe the prince doesn't know about these things, but it is just the work of some officials in the East Palace, and it has nothing to do with the prince!" ”

When Li Yuan heard this, he was a little relieved: "Well, let me think about it again!" ”

Finally, five days after Li Shimin's expedition, Li Yuan announced the results.

In the decree, Li Yuan only reprimanded the prince in strong words, saying that his actions had caused a bad relationship between the brothers, and reprimanded him for this. As for the smuggling of 500 Mingguangjia to Gyeongju, Li Yuan completely shifted the responsibility to the crown prince Zhongyun Wang Gui, Zuo Wei Ting and Tiance Mansion soldier Cao Shenjun Du Yan. They were exiled to Shanzhou.

After getting this result, Zhang Yunwen immediately flew a pigeon and sent a message to Li Shimin, who had arrived in Ningzhou.

Li Shimin untied the letter box on the pigeon's leg and opened it to take a look, but the result of this matter was densely written in small letters.

"Smack-" Li Shimin punched several cases in front of him. It seems that he wants to vent his anger.

Hearing the sound inside, the soldiers outside suddenly opened the door curtain, but saw Li Shimin's face was pale, and hurriedly retreated.

"Someone's coming!" Li Shimin roared, "How long will it take for the forward cavalry to reach Ningzhou?" ”

Coming in was a pro-soldier and said: "Your Highness, the striker has arrived in Ningzhou." But the attack has not begun! ”

"Pass my command, and the army will be ready to move forward at full speed!" As he spoke, he lifted the curtain of the door and boarded the horse, his black armor exuding a majestic aura.

"Xuanjia team, follow me!" After saying a horsewhip, he should run wildly.

Behind him, hundreds of Xuanjia cavalry followed Li Shimin under the leadership of Cheng Yanjin.

Arrived outside Ningzhou City, and the previous 1,000 forwards converged and lined up under Ningzhou City.

"Rebellious ministers and thieves, don't go out of the city and surrender quickly!" Li Shimin shouted at the soldiers at the head of the city a little hideously, "I am the King of Qin of the Tang Dynasty, so I don't surrender quickly!" ”

After shouting loudly, the depression in my heart suddenly subsided a lot.

However, the other party didn't answer him, but just shot a rain of arrows, which fell far in front of Li Shimin's horse. Li Shimin did not mind and ordered to set up camp outside the city.

In this way, the two sides were at a stalemate for several days. Every day, bows and arrows were fired, and then Li Shimin sent people out to persuade him to surrender.

Finally, on the fifth day, there was a faint sound of shouting and killing in the city.

As soon as Li Shimin heard this voice, he estimated that there was infighting in the city, so he was not busy attacking and waited all the time.

About an hour later, I saw the gate of Ningzhou City open, and a team of soldiers escorted several people who were firmly bound out of the city.

Seeing King Qin's army from afar, one of them shouted: "Your Highness, don't attack!" The criminal minister is the deputy general under Yang Wengan's account! Today, I will wait for the thief to come and ask for sin! ”

Li Shimin motioned for people to come over, and sure enough, he saw Yu Wenying and several generals being tied into zongzi and pushed forward by the soldiers.

The deputy general came to Li Shimin and knelt on the ground all of a sudden: "The traitor Yang Wengan has been killed by the criminal ministers and others, and the rest of the rebels are all here!" ”

Li Shimin nodded, while asking the soldiers to take the deputy general down, and one arranged for the soldiers to enter the city and take over Ningzhou.

When his gaze swept to Yu Wenying, he couldn't help but say, "Father asked you to go because of Yang Wengan's rebellion." How do you cling to rebellion? ”

Yu Wenying glanced at Li Shimin and was silent.

Li Shimin sighed and said, "Someone! Show all these rebels and thieves to the public! ”

Several swordsmen and axemen came out of the ranks: "Wow! ”

On June 19 of the sixth year of Wude, Yang Wengan was killed by his subordinates and his head was sent to Chang'an. This rebellion, which was supposed to take place in the seventh year of Wude, came to an end.

However, throughout the whole incident, from the Changlin Army at the beginning to the Yang Wengan Rebellion at the end, these were all Li Jiancheng's step by step stints. The Qin Wangfu relied on a well-developed intelligence network to leverage its strength to fuel the flames and develop things in the direction of the Qin Wangfu.

In the Yang Wengan rebellion, Zhang Yunwen even sacrificed a chess piece that Wude entered the East Palace in the second year - Qiaogong Mountain, and asked him to come forward and report to the East Palace with Er Zhuhuan. However, due to Li Yuan's tolerance of Li Jiancheng and the unanimous intercession inside and outside the court, this matter that could have pulled the prince off the horse turned out to be over, and in the end, Tiance Mansion also paid a Du Yan, which really made Li Shimin angry.
