In May of the sixth year of Wude, Lang General Er Zhuhuan and the school captain Qiao Gongshan were ordered by the Donggong Palace to escort 500 Mingguangjia to Gyeongju, and when they arrived in Bonju, something happened to them, and the two went to the Renzhi Palace to report that the prince instructed Yang Wengan to raise troops, so that he could echo with himself inside and outside. From time to time, Du Fengju, a native of Ningzhou, heard about this incident, and went to Renzhi Palace to tell about the situation.

"What?! Prince An dares to do so! Tang Gaozu Li Yuan's palm slapped heavily on several cases, and suddenly, the pen, ink, paper, inkstone, tea and candle lamps on it jumped.

Standing below is a Bu Yi Ningzhou Du Fengju.

I saw him bow his head and brows, his hands hanging down, an honest look.

Li Yuan glanced at him, with an unknown color in his eyes. "Well, you go down first!"

Du Feng held a salute and withdrew.

Li Yuan's eyes flickered for a long time, and finally showed a hint of determination. He picked up the brush, wrote a line of words on a piece of rice paper, and then said to the serving eunuch beside him: "Send the letter to my disobedient son immediately!" ”

The eunuch withdrew with the letter in both hands.

In the Xiande Hall of Chang'an East Palace, Li Jiancheng was a little anxious, he felt that something big would happen, but he didn't know where this feeling came from. I had to anxiously pace in the Hall of Virtue.

"Your Highness, the crown prince and all the subordinate officials are here!" The voice of the chamberlain came from outside the door.

Li Jiancheng stopped, what, the East Palace officials are here? I didn't give an order, what are they going to do!

Although he thought so, he still said to the waiter outside the door: "Let them in!" ”

I saw a group of officials enter the Hall of Virtue.

First, there was a courtesy, and then Xu Shimo, the prince's housekeeper, asked, "Your Highness, have you ever sent anything to Gyeongju?" ”

Li Jiancheng nodded, knowing that there were still a lot of people who sent things. There is no need to hide it.

"Are the escorts Er Zhuhuan and Qiao Gongshan the two?"

Li Jiancheng nodded again.

"Your Highness, why are you so confused! Without the permission of the Ministry of War, transporting armor to local officials and colluding with foreign ministers is not clear! Besides, when Er Zhuhuan and Qiao Gongshan were in Fengzhou, they wrote to His Majesty and falsely accused His Highness of rebellion! Xu Shimo suddenly said with a heavy voice.

"What!? The two of them denounced me? Li Jiancheng's face was full of shock.

"It's true! Now, I'm afraid that the father-in-law of Renzhi Palace is already on the way! ”

As soon as these words came out, Li Jiancheng's face suddenly turned pale, and then he said with a hideous face: "I want to destroy those two people!" ”

Xu Shimo said: "Your Highness, I'm afraid now is not the time to talk about this, think about how to deal with the upcoming situation!" ”

At this moment, the waiter outside the door said: "Your Highness, Gonggong Feng of Renzhi Palace is here!" ”

When Li Jiancheng heard this, his face was pale and a little overwhelmed. Fortunately, Xu Shimo said loudly: "Please come in!" ”

The serving eunuch beside Li Yuan entered the Hall of Virtue. Seeing Li Jiancheng, he smiled mildly and took out the letter in his arms: "Your Highness, Your Majesty ordered the villain to send you a letter!" ”

Li Jiancheng took the letter with some trembling tremors and opened it slowly, but saw that the letter did not mention the five hundred armors at all, but after a reassurance, he said that there was something important and he needed to go to Renzhi Palace immediately.

However, the more this happened, the more frightened Li Jiancheng became. If Li Yuan scolded him in the letter, it would be nothing.

Seeing that Li Jiancheng finished reading the letter, Gonggong Feng immediately said: "Since Your Highness has read the letter, you must know the meaning. The old slave retired first! After speaking, he left the Hall of Virtue.

After Gonggong Feng left, Li Jiancheng sat weakly on the chair, looked at the officials of the East Palace below, and asked, "What should you tell me about the current situation?" ”

The prince's housekeeper Xu Shimo looked at Li Jiancheng on the chair, and a trace of viciousness flashed in his eyes: "Your Highness might as well immediately lead the East Palace Six Rates to control Chang'an, and order Yang Wengan to raise troops to attack Renzhi Palace, and help His Highness wait for the Great Treasure immediately!" ”

As soon as these words fell, a trace of intention flashed in Li Jiancheng's eyes, but the other person said loudly: "Hmph, dare to ask Lord Xu how many people are in the sixth rate of the East Palace, and how many troops are there in Chang'an Mansion?" As long as His Majesty has a will, the Guanzhong army can surround Chang'an in one day! As for letting Yang Wengan attack Renzhi Palace, it's even more nonsense! Not to mention whether Yang Wengan can capture Renzhi Palace, even after the capture, who can guarantee that there will be no more Erzhuhuan and Qiaogongshan? ”

Li Jiancheng looked at that person, but it was Zhao Hongzhi, the chief bookkeeper of Zhan Shi. At that moment, he asked, "According to the words of the master book, what should I do?" ”

"Your Highness should dispense with the crown prince's car driving uniform, remove the entourage, and immediately go to Your Majesty to confess your guilt, so as to ask Your Majesty for forgiveness!" Zhao Hongzhi said lightly, "As long as His Royal Highness admits the crime, it is only a matter of the severity of the punishment, and it will not endanger the position of the East Palace!" If it's all or nothing, there's no way to turn over! ”

Li Jiancheng gritted his teeth, looked at the officials in the hall, and after a while, said softly: "Everyone, now that the East Palace is in danger, please go to the Renzhi Palace with me!" ”

The officials glanced at each other and waved at the same time: "Wow! ”

On May 24, the sixth year of Wude in the Tang Dynasty, the crown prince Li Jiancheng led a group of subordinates of the East Palace to Renzhi Palace to ask for guilt.

I saw more than 100 cavalry escorting Li Jiancheng and dozens of officials of the East Palace to Renzhi Palace, all the way to the sparkling carriages and horses, but it was silent.

After walking slowly for nearly sixty miles, he saw that he had reached Renzhi Palace, but Li Jiancheng ordered the soldiers and officials of the East Palace to stay in a fortress not far away. It is the former training site left by Mao Hongbin of the Northern Wei Dynasty.

But he rushed to Renzhi Palace with more than a dozen attendants.

With apprehension, Li Jiancheng walked lightly to the palace where Li Yuan was, and as soon as he entered the hall, he fell to the ground and kowtowed.

Li Yuan didn't seem to see Li Jiancheng on the ground, so he kept kowtowing. Finally, when Li Jiancheng's forehead was red, he said coldly: "My good son, well done!" ”

Li Jiancheng froze when he heard this, and then kowtowed like pounding garlic.

"Your dignified prince has done such a disobedient thing! Tell me why you didn't send the armor to Yang Wengan through the Ministry of War? Why did he recruit strong men? What are your intentions? ”

Li Jiancheng still didn't say anything, just kowtowed, and finally, because he kowtowed too much and violently, he rolled his eyes and fainted!

Li Yuanzheng scolded vigorously, but when he saw Li Jiancheng fall to the ground, he immediately stopped and motioned to the waiter to go and check.

The chamberlain helped Li Jiancheng up, glanced at the bag that was slowly bulging on his forehead, and rolled his eyelids: "Back to Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has fainted!" ”

Li Yuan couldn't help but laugh all of a sudden, he knocked his head and fainted! However, his anger was not eliminated, he glanced at Li Jiancheng on the ground, and said coldly: "Send him to the tent, you are not allowed to release him without my order!" At each meal, he could only eat wheat rice to satisfy his hunger and drink water. Well, let Chen Fu, the eunuch in the palace, guard him! ”

When the chamberlain heard this, he took the order and left.

As soon as Li Jiancheng was sent away, Li Yuan muttered, "Gyeongju...... Yang Wengan......"

Suddenly said loudly: "Someone is here, call Si Nongqing Yu Wenying!" ”

(Comrades, I continue to be cheeky and ask for collection and flowers!) Preferably VIP, of course! )
