Chapter 377: Forcing the Palace

"Please give the Holy Order to hand over the military power to His Royal Highness the King of Qin!"

After Wei Chigong finished saying this, the soldiers behind him immediately shouted loudly.

The momentum was very loud, as if Li Yuan did not agree, they would really do it immediately.

Concubine Yin De's bedroom was a little dignified, Li Yuan had no choice but to do it himself, Li Shimin forced the palace, and he had already killed Li Jiancheng, what else could he do?

Helpless, Li Yuan could only call out the tiger talisman of military power, and issued another edict.

After the tiger talisman and the edict arrived, Wei Chigong immediately sent someone to send it to Xuanwu Gate, and at the same time, hundreds of guards in the palace also immediately gathered and marched towards Xuanwu Gate with confidence.

Xuanwu Gate, the snow has become heavy again at some point, and the sky above Chang'an is gloomy.

Zhang Gongjin's forehead was covered in cold sweat, and he was about to lose his support for the entire Xuanwu Sect.

The cronies of the East Palace outside were still desperately banging.

"Lord Wang, we're just afraid that we won't be able to stand it anymore, or our subordinates will order someone to escort the prince to retreat inside, right?" The eldest grandson Wuji knew very well that the Xuanwu Gate was broken, and they couldn't resist the cronies of the East Palace at all.

Therefore, what needs to be done now is to ensure Li Shimin's safety, as long as Li Shimin is safe, they will be invincible first.

However, Li Shimin stood in the wind and snow, but shook his head: "This king can't retreat." ”

Now the morale of the soldiers is still there, but if he retreats, the morale will definitely collapse, and then the cronies of the East Palace will be able to rush in easily.

In this way, even if he escapes with his life, it is difficult to say whether these people left behind will still be alive.

These are all people who have the merit of following the dragon, and he must protect them, because after he ascends the throne, it will be up to these people to consolidate power.

Otherwise, even if he can ascend to the throne, but there is no one available in the entire court, how can it be good?

Li Shimin did not retreat.

Although the eldest grandson Wuji was in a hurry, he had no choice but to follow Li Shimin to the city tower with a blade and fight with those cronies of the East Palace.

The snow is getting heavier and heavier, and the Xuanwu Gate is finally going to be unguardable.

And at this time, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves in the distance, and then, I saw Pan Hu of the Dragon and Tiger Army rushing with soldiers and horses.

However, although he saw the Dragon Tiger Army, Li Shimin's heart did not relax, because he was not sure who the Dragon Tiger Army was helping.

Song Gongqing had also seen Pan Hu at this time, and after he saw Pan Hu, he was faintly uneasy in his heart, but he still decided to fight.

Just when Pan Hu rushed over, Song Gongqing immediately ran to shout: "Li Shimin forced the palace, the guards of the East Palace came to the rescue, General Pan quickly helped to attack the palace, otherwise it would not be good to wait for Li Shimin to kill the saint." ”

He didn't dare to say that the prince had been killed, because as soon as the news came out, Pan Hu just wanted to help them, and I'm afraid he didn't dare to help, because without the prince, if he went against Li Shimin again, would he still want to live?

After Song Gongqing finished speaking, Pan Hu's brows condensed slightly, thinking that it wasn't Li Jiancheng who forced the palace, why did he become Li Shimin again?

Li Shimin, who was on the city tower, was by no means an ordinary person, he quickly saw Song Gongqing's intentions, so he shouted loudly: "General Pan, the prince forced the palace, he has been killed by this king, and now these are all rebellions in the East Palace, help this king take it." ”

Hearing that the crown prince had been killed, Pan Hu's expression moved slightly, and he immediately responded: "Your Royal Highness the King of Qin, rest assured, the last general was entrusted by Qin Tian to come to King Qin." ”

When Li Shimin heard that Pan Hu had only come after listening to Qin Tian's words, he was overjoyed in his heart, and secretly thought that although Qin Tian did not follow him to Xuanwu Gate, he had also done a great job.

As he was talking, the people sent by Wei Chigong had already rushed over with tiger talismans and edicts.

"There is an order from the saint, all the military power in the capital is under the dispatch of His Royal Highness the King of Qin, and there is no disobedience, the guards of the East Palace, surrender quickly, and the saint is not to blame for the past."

The Dragon and Tiger Army came, Li Yuan also compromised, and the military power in the capital was in the hands of Li Shimin, and at this time, Li Shimin was already in control of the overall situation.

He stood on the tower of the Xuanwu Gate, letting the wind and snow blow.

"Gongqing Song, don't you surrender yet?"

Li Shimin shouted, and among the guards in the East Palace, some of them had already put down their weapons.

The crown prince Li Jiancheng is dead, and now they can't take revenge, and they continue to rush to kill what to do, no matter who it is, life is the most important thing.

"Surrender, surrender ......"

The guards on the Xuanwu Gate, as well as the soldiers of the Dragon and Tiger Army, shouted loudly, and the sound of soldiers in their hands was loud, and the attendants in the surrounded East Palace felt a chill in their hearts, and then, some of them put down their blades.

When the number of people surrenders exceeds the average, the more people will surrender.

In the end, only a dozen people were willing to follow Song Gongqing and refused to surrender.

The wind and snow were whirring, Song Gongqing's hair and clothes were already white, and he stood surrounded by everyone, but he was not afraid at all.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, his subordinates are incompetent, they can neither protect your position as the prince, nor can they avenge you, all the subordinates can do is to die to repay His Royal Highness the Prince."

After that, Song Gongqing looked at Li Shimin and said with a smile: "Li Shimin, you really hate enough, you won this battle for the crown prince, but don't forget, Xue Wanche has already led the troops to the Qin Palace, you will regret it." ”

Hearing this, Li Shimin's cheeks suddenly turned pale, and the whole person trembled a little, if the eldest grandson princess and his child really had a problem, it would be a bad thing, he was afraid that he would not forgive himself for the rest of his life.

Is it true that all success has to be earned through some sacrifice?

But just when Li Shimin was trying his best to restrain himself, Pan Hu suddenly shouted: "Qin Tian has already led the soldiers and horses to the Qin Palace, it is difficult to say whether Xue Wanche will be able to attack the Qin Palace." ”

When these words came out, Li Shimin, who was holding back his breath, suddenly laughed: "Okay, good Qin Tian, really this Wang Fuxing is also ......."

Li Shimin's laughter was very loud, and all the uneasiness was swept away at this moment, and all this was because of Qin Tian, although he did not follow him in the palace in ambush, but he saved the Qin Palace, and this first-class merit should also be his.

Li Shimin was a little proud, Song Gongqing bit his lip tightly, and suddenly sighed softly: "That's it, that's it, His Royal Highness the Prince, my subordinates went with you......"

After that, Song Gongqing immediately cut himself in front of the Xuanwu Gate.

The snow that had already been dyed red had been covered again, but now there was a little more.

After Song Gongqing committed suicide, the remaining dozen or so guards did not hesitate, and immediately committed suicide and fell in a pool of blood.

Li Shimin looked at the corpses downstairs in the city, and suddenly couldn't help but sigh.

"They are all righteous men, and they are buried with great honor."

Li Shimin was really moved by the loyalty of these people, and everyone was afraid of death, but in this case, there are still people who are willing to give their lives, so these people are very valuable.

Of course, now that Li Shimin is in control, after the killing, it is time for him to practice benevolence and righteousness and stabilize the situation.
