Chapter 15: The Transformation of Xuanwu Gate (1)

It is said that Li Shimin and Li Yuanji came to Xuanfu Gate with 500 swords and axes and 500 archers, but they saw a dark place. It stands to reason that there should be torches on top of every palace gate, and some torches are waterproof, even in this stormy night, they must be lit. It's dark now, and it's weird.

"Big brother, this Xuanfumen hasn't changed guards, right?" Li Yuanji stood up on his horse and said to Li Jiancheng.

Li Jiancheng shook his head and said, "I haven't heard of it, Xu Shiji's child hasn't changed." However, why can't the son of the gate even light the lamp? ”

"I'm also strange, big brother, you are waiting here now, I'll go and shout." As he spoke, Li Yuanji drove his horse forward, but Li Jiancheng did not wait in place, but followed.

Li Yuanji was even more strange when he arrived in front of the Xuanfu Gate, not only did there not be a single light on the city wall, but even the reflection of the sword and gun was missing. Li Yuanji drank: "Xuanfu Gate guard Xu Zhen come out quickly!" ”

"Huh? Bold, Xuanfu Gate guard Xu Zhen, open the door quickly! ”

"Hmph, what a bold man, I'm Li Yuanji, the king of Qi, tell Xu Zhen's stinky boy to come out! Otherwise, I'll let the arrow go! ”

At this moment, a person suddenly appeared on the door, seven or eight torches lit up, and a round thing was thrown down from it, followed by a loud laugh: "Hahahaha, Xu Zhen you are looking for, but this?" ”

Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji were shocked when they heard this voice, this person was Wei Chi Jingde! Look at the thing that was thrown down, it wasn't Xu Zhen's head, or what!

Li Jiancheng said angrily: "Wei Chigong, you dare to kill the palace guard, do you want to rebel?" ”

Yu Chi Jingde laughed wildly: "Hahaha, no, you were the one who killed Xu Zhen, you were the one who attacked the palace gate, and you were the one who rebelled!" ”

Li Jiancheng was shocked, he came with troops today, and now Xu Zhen's head is on his side, if he doesn't go in to see Li Yuan, it will be difficult to wash it even if he jumps into the Yellow River. Li Jiancheng was shocked and angry, and Yu Chigong danced with a knife and axe: "Prince Dog, let you taste the fate of going against our King Qin today!" Soldiers, for the sake of King Qin, kill me! ”

Suddenly, arrows rained down on the city walls. The guards beside Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji hurriedly took out their shields to resist, and at this time, the palace door was wide open, and countless soldiers appeared inside, shouting in unison and killing them.

Li Yuanji hurriedly said to Li Jiancheng: "Big brother, you go first, I'll take the soldiers to resist." Hurry up and tune the Divine Warrior Army! ”

At this time, it is not reluctant to be polite, talking about the love of children, because the military situation is urgent, and a breath of time can save many people's lives, Li Jiancheng didn't say a word, but turned the horse's head and walked back.

Now that you have been caught, how can you have the power to escape? Li Jiancheng saw that torches appeared in the mountains and forests in the east and in the mountains and forests in the north, and he didn't know how many people and horses were hidden under the faint torches. Today, are you going to die here, second brother, you have finally come to this point, you are so ruthless!

Li Jiancheng was almost desperate, at this moment, a vote of people also came to the west, more than 3,000 people, when Li Jiancheng was about to kill himself, he heard a female voice: "Big brother, stop, it's Pingyang coming!" ”

"Sanniang?" Li Jiancheng almost cried with joy, but immediately, he became nervous again, and he said, "Sanniang, it's rare that you are here to kill me too?" ”

"Big brother, I'm here to help you, don't say much, you go to Xuanwu Gate, Xu Qing is safe there. Here's the princess army of Sanniang! ”

Princess Pingyang was sassy and heroic, and with a coquettish drink, she took her own people to drink Li Yuanji and went to fight together. Li Jiancheng also whipped on the horse's ass at this time, and ran towards the Xuanwu Gate with a smoke.

---- go back an hour ago.

The rain kept falling, Xu Qing thought to himself that it would be better to let the soldiers go back, anyway, the change in Xuanwumen may not be today, he didn't communicate with Li Shimin, and he may not choose to be in Xuanwumen. If you get sick 5,000 at once, that's a terrible thing. However, Xu Qing still quietly left some people.

The yatang at the front door of Xuanwu Gate can put down a lot of people, as well as the barracks, or the canteen, and it can still squeeze more than 1,000 people. Squeezing a little more, 1,500 people were left in the Xuanwu Gate, and the others went back to the camp. Xu Qing asked everyone to make the bed with dry straw straw, sat down to rest in peace, and went back to sleep himself.

But as soon as he lay down, the people who originally belonged to the dark river quietly entered Xu Qing's room. Xu Qing asked angrily, "What are you doing here?" ”

The members of the Dark River said to Xu Qing: "Lord, you can't sleep today, it seems that something big happened today......

Xu Qing said with a black face, won't he be so unlucky, just after the troops were withdrawn, there would be chaos?

A member of the Dark River saw that Xu Qing didn't believe it, so he simply whispered in Xu Qingdi's ear: "Lord, this one, one of our brothers has already mixed in with them." Find out the information of the incoming land, even if you have to send someone to control you today. ”

Xu Qing frowned and asked, "What, control me?" ”

Half an hour later, a group of ghostly figures, taking advantage of the dark night and the sound of raindrops, quietly appeared on the city wall. The first to stun the guard, at a glance, is a master who has been practiced for many years. Then, they divided into two ways, all the way directly to Xu Qing's room, and all the way to the hinges that controlled the iron gate.

The passer-by who came to Xu Qing's room first threw a sleeping incense into Xu Qing's room, waited for a while, pushed the door and saw that the members of the dark river who were all in the room looked at him with brushes.

Oh, so many guests.

Puff, puff, this way was quietly killed by Xu Qing's people, and as soon as the door was closed, he was interrogated. The front and back doors are far apart, and this side whispers and the opposite side cannot be heard. woke up those people, Xu Qing took a look, hey, one of the people inside made a dark river universal gesture.

Well, whoever of you recruits first will live. The one in the dark river was the first to recruit workers, and the rest of them all went out when they saw it, competing to say what they knew. According to this, Xu Qing sent a signal outside, and sure enough, the iron gate sounded.

Dark River is out!

The night is boundless, the river is the world!

The gate was tightened, and the people of the dark river shot a row of crossbow arrows, and then someone gave a signal, and the city gate was wide open, allowing Li Shimin's people to enter.

The soldiers who were resting above the outer gate were all shouted, and they hid on the city wall like Xu Qing, silent. After a while, Xu Qing saw more than 100 sword and axe men coming in from outside the door, hiding on both sides of the gate. Seeing that the situation inside was very good, seven or eight more people came in, and it seemed that the big man had arrived.

Originally, they should have checked the city wall again, or to see if Xu Qing had been caught, but what happened immediately made them lose their mood. In the distance, the sound of Li Jiancheng's horse's hooves disturbed the silence outside the Xuanwu Gate, but he didn't know that there were already a thousand people in ambush here. There are only one hundred inside the Xuanwu Gate, and there are nine hundred outside the door.

And at this time, in Li Yuan's imperial study of the Taiji Palace:

"Your Majesty, King Qin's plan is like this, Xu Zhen is dead now, and soon, that Xu Qing will also take refuge in King Qin. In this case, what is the use of His Majesty killing me? Pei Ju smiled and said, "I, Pei Ju, may be able to contribute to the Turkic problem in the Western Regions in the future." And Your Majesty, from now on, you will sit high on the throne of the Emperor. ”

Li Yuan sneered and said, "Do you think I'll compromise so easily? ”

"What about you if you don't compromise, if you don't compromise?" Pei Ju roared: "Li Jiancheng, dead!" Li Yuanji is also dead! Who else can inherit the throne of you, relying on you old man, you think you can really live long live! ”

"I won't bother you about these things." Li Yuan said coldly to the guards standing at the door: "No matter what, you, a slave with five surnames, I still want to get rid of the land." In the future, whether the king of Qin and the crown prince inherit the great treasure, they will not be able to leave you with this scourge. ”

Pei Ju was caught by Long Wei, and he shouted in a hoarse voice: "Li Yuan! Don't you want the Western Regions? Don't you want to make Turkic? You should quickly write the holy decree, abolish the prince, and Zen the king of Qin! Hahaha......"

"Pull it down, cut it!" Li Yuan waved his hand.

Click, Pei Ju.

Then, the guard arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, it is no longer safe in the palace now, please move to the army." Among the four armies, the emperor has two armies, and if he has two armies in hand, no matter how big the disaster is, it can be calmed down. ”

It is impossible to figure out the affairs outside the door now, Li Yuan is in the deep palace, and he does not dare to conclude that Li Jiancheng did not rebel because of Pei Ju's matter. Maybe it's a ploy? Of course, King Qin made such a fuss, and it is extremely dangerous to go out now. King Qin's power has infiltrated the Yingzhou army, can't it reach the fourth army?

Li Yuan said stubbornly: "In the past three years, I have only taken a fancy to two people, one is the crown prince, and I support him to defeat the King of Qin. Now, I don't know if he rebelled, another person, I took a fancy to Xu Qing. I won't go anywhere, he Xu Qing has 10,000 people in his hands, if a small Xuanwu Sect can't stand it, then I am really old and useless. Death is death, and no one shall have his head cut off in the flight. You go below, follow the former guards, do not increase the troops, everything is as usual. ”

Before the guard went out, the little eunuch came with a person, it was Pei Lian. Pei Xiao came in panting and said to Li Yuan: "Your Majesty, no, no." ”

In fact, what Li Yuan said just now, Pei Lin heard everything. Li Yuan asked, "Pei Lian, why not?" ”

Pei Lin breathlessly said: "Your Majesty, at this time, the crown prince and the king of Qin must be outside the Xuanwu Gate, brothers are killing each other, and the emperor is close at hand, why don't you stop it?" One of them must be at fault, but we must not allow that mistake to become a catastrophe. ”

After a pause, Pei Lin swallowed his saliva and continued: "Xu Qing is a loyal minister, and he will not rebel, and the Xuanwu Sect at this time is still the emperor." However, Xu Qing was too indecisive, the prince and the Qin Wang brothers killed each other, and when he knew who to help, I am afraid that one would have died a long time ago. ”

Li Yuan took the palace center and went to Xuanwu Gate quietly.
