On the road from Gyeongju, Yu Wenying sat in the carriage and recalled the words of the emperor and the king of Qi at that time.

Li Yuan said to Yu Wenying: "You take my order and go to Gyeongju to summon Yang Wengan to Renzhi Palace!" ”

However, after exiting the main hall, Yu Wenying went straight to Li Yuanji, the king of Qi, and told Li Yuanji about the matter.

After hearing this, Li Yuanji said lightly: "If you just send some armor, the guilt is not very great!" ”

Yu Wenying listened, knew what it meant, and immediately left.

Looking at the lush green grass and trees outside the carriage, Yu Wenying was a little apprehensive. Close your eyes and look like you're resigned to your fate.

The carriage traveled slowly for two days and finally arrived in Gyeongju.

As soon as she arrived in Gyeongju, Yu Wenying immediately went straight to the Gyeongju Governor's Office.

At this moment, Yang Wengan was concentrating on training the army, and when he heard someone report that he was from Chang'an, his heart suddenly "chuckled".

Could it be that something happened to the East Palace?

Pressing the guess in his heart, Yang Wengan came to the living room and saw a person sitting in the hall drinking tea. It was Yu Wenying.

Seeing that it was Yu Wenying, Yang Wengan's heart relaxed. This Yu Wenying and the King of Qi are on good terms, and the King of Qi has the East Palace to quote each other. When he was a guard in the East Palace, he also saw this Lord Yuwen.

"It turned out to be Lord Yuwen! I don't know why you're here? Yang Wengan sat on the Taishi chair and picked up a cup of tea.

"By Your Majesty's order, summon Lord Yang to go to Renzhi Palace!" Yu Wenying said.

Yang Wengan frowned suddenly, could something really happen?

Seeing Yang Wengan's appearance, Yu Wenying couldn't help but wonder: "Doesn't Lord Yang know that something happened to the East Palace?" ”

The teacup in Yang Wengan's hand shook suddenly, and he hurriedly asked, "What happened to the East Palace?" ”

Yu Wenying saw that his expression did not seem to be fake, so he immediately transported the armor from the East Palace to him, and was denounced by the escort, the prince pleaded guilty, His Majesty was angry, and told Yang Wengan as it was.

"But I really haven't received any news! Even the fast horse sent by Donggong has not arrived in Gyeongju for three days, and I am wondering! When Yang Wengan heard this, it turned out that he was a little panicked and his expression suddenly disappeared.

"Looks like someone is blocking the news!"

"What is the situation in the East Palace now?" Yang Wengan asked.

"The crown prince is now imprisoned in a tent in the Renzhi Palace, and he only has wheat and rice to satisfy his hunger every day, and the rest of the officials were left outside the Renzhi Palace by the prince and did not enter the palace!"

Yang Wengan was silent for a moment. Seeing that he didn't speak, Yu Wenying didn't speak, picked up the teacup and drank it.

After a while, Yang Wen stood up dryly: "Someone is coming, pass my general order, and order the whole army to gather!" ”

Hearing Yang Wengan's words, Yu Wenying couldn't help but smile. Isn't this what King Qi wants to see?

Yang Wen turned his head dryly: "Hehe, Brother Yuwen, I don't know what you think?" ”

Yu Wenying suddenly got up and waved to Yang Wengan: "See your lord!" ”

On May 27, the sixth year of Wudeok, Yang Wengan of Gyeongju raised troops to rebel and went south to Chang'an. And Yu Wenying, the Si Nongqing sent by Li Yuan, attached himself to Yang Wengan at the first time and went south together.

After Li Yuan got the news in Renzhi Palace, he gritted his teeth and said, "Two traitors! Then he sent Qian Jiulong, the general of Zuo Wuwei, and Yang Shidao, the governor of Lingzhou, to attack Yang Wengan.

And after the prince got the news of Yang Wengan's army, he didn't eat or drink that day and stayed for a day.

On the day of the army, Yang Wengan sent troops to plunder grain and grass everywhere for the purpose of going south.

Two days later, the imperial army assembled and pressed towards Gyeongju.

On May 29, Gaozu summoned King Shimin of Qin to discuss Yang Wengan's rebellion.

Li Shimin said: "Yang Wengan dared to do such an arrogant and rebellious act, thinking that his subordinates in the shogunate should have captured and killed him." If this is not the case, a general should be sent to fight him. ”

Li Yuan said: "It can't be like this. Yang Wen's work is related to the completion of the project, and I am afraid that there are many people who respond to him. You'd better go in person, and when you return, I will make you prince." I don't want to follow the example of Emperor Wen of Sui to kill my own son, and then I will be demoted to the king of Shu. Shuzhong's army is weak, if he can serve you in the future, you should save his life; If he refuses to serve you, it will be easy for you to arrest him. ”

Li Shimin happily accepted the order.

Since he set out on the expedition, he first received the Holy Decree Talisman, and then returned to Chang'an on horseback.

As soon as he arrived at the Qin Palace, Li Shimin summoned the generals and told him about it.

Zhang Yunwen, as a military officer of the Tiance Mansion, was also summoned.

Li Shimin first told the ins and outs of the matter, especially what Li Yuan said to him at the end. After speaking, he glanced at the reactions of the crowd. There are those who are elated, there are those who bow their heads and ponder, and there are more who are silent.

Look at that Yunwen again, with a look of indifference. If it weren't for the carrier pigeons that flew in, Li Shimin would almost never have guessed that there were two of them in this matter.

"Your Highness, although Your Majesty has promised that once this matter is over, you will be appointed as the East Palace! But His Majesty's words are not fully believed! His Majesty once said that the army in Jinyang was mainly the plan of His Royal Highness, and if it was completed, His Highness would be established as the East Palace. But now, the position of the East Palace has been built for a long time! The eldest grandson Wuji was silent for a moment, then got up and said.

Li Shimin listened, although his face was full of anger, but he still said: "Although this is the case, how dare you disobey the order of your father?" Besides, I am a general, and it is a matter of course that I am ordered to go on the expedition! Okay, let's talk about sending troops first! ”

Qin Qiong said: "That Yang Wengan was born as a guard of the East Palace, and his martial arts are strong. The land of Gyeongju was mostly disturbed by the Turks, the people were fierce, and the soldiers were brave. However, there is only one district in Xiazhou, and the number of troops is less than 10,000 people, and His Royal Highness the King of Qin will personally dispatch it, and a thousand iron horsemen can destroy it! ”

Li Shimin nodded: "Uncle Bao is right. But I still brought 3,000 iron horses, and in addition, Shubao, Wei Chi, Zhijie, and Xinggong, a few of you will go with me! ”

After speaking, his eyes turned to Zhang Yunwen: "Yunwen, you have to give me all the information about Yang Wengan before you leave, and you must keep in touch at all times during the few days I go on the expedition." DID YOU KNOW? ”

"Whoa!" Zhang Yunwen bowed.

And at this moment, in Gyeongju City, Yang Wengan stroked a long sword. This was given by the prince himself when he was a guard in the East Palace, and now, he is going to take this sword to kill the Renzhi Palace, and the prince will come out.

He got up suddenly, put a phoenix-winged helmet on his head, and walked out with a resolute gaze.

Inside the big tent, Yang Wengan asked Cang Cao beside him, "How much grain have you raised in the past few days?" ”

"Governor Yudu, a total of 13,000 stones of grain and grass have been raised!" Kura replied.

Yang Wengan nodded, well, barely enough.

"Pass my order, the army will pull out the camp and go south from now on to attack Ningzhou!"
