Li Shimin got dressed and walked out of the door of my room, and the chamberlain of King Qin's mansion was standing at the door of the bedroom. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"What's going on!?"
"Lord Qi, someone is in the palace, Prince Xuan will enter the palace immediately."
"Good! The king knows. When Li Shimin came to Renshou Palace, before he entered the palace gate, he ran into Li Yuan's personal father-in-law, Wanyue.
"Hello Father-in-law of the waning moon!"
"Ahh It's His Royal Highness King Qin! Li Shimin was a little tired when he saw the waning moon. immediately asked with concern, and secretly stuffed another 'small object' into Wanyue's hand:
"Father-in-law of the waning moon, I haven't seen you for many days, your complexion is much uglier." He secretly asked the father-in-law of the waning moon:
"Father-in-law, what's going on?" Father-in-law weighed the weight of the small object.
"His Royal Highness the King of Qin, something is wrong, I don't know why, the Turkic army suddenly bypassed the Yan'an fortress, appeared in the area of Guanhuayin, and the entire Huayin county slaughtered the city, and the Turkic envoy just left, saying that it was because His Royal Highness the Prince was at the funeral of Princess Zhao in Pingyang, and His Royal Highness the Prince performed the martial arts of the Yellow Emperor and Chi You, so he immediately wrote a letter to the Turkic Lili Khan, who was very angry and raised troops to attack, and now His Majesty is very angry, so let the slave family and others immediately recruit His Royal Highness the King of Qin, His Royal Highness the King of Zhao and His Royal Highness the King of Qi into the palace. Discuss countermeasures. ”
"Oh! Didn't you pass on my brother to the crown prince? Wanyue shook her head. Li Shimin thanked the Wanyue Princess, and immediately walked in. Li Yuanba, the king of Zhao, and Li Yuanji, the king of Qi, were already waiting in the Xuanzheng Palace, and Li Yuan lowered his head and looked solemn.
"Son-in-law, see father!" When Li Yuan saw Li Shimin coming, he immediately showed Li Shimin the recital rules of Huayin County:
"O people! Look at it, this is the twist and turn of the Huayin County Order desperately sending people to play. Li Shimin took the fold and saw that there were still blood stains on it. After opening it, I slowly learned what it was. It turned out that after the Guanzhong secret road bypassed the Yan'an fortress, it also connected several Guanzhong counties, and when the Turkic army under the command of the Lingli Khan passed through the territory of Huayin, it happened that on the mountains around Huayin, a few woodcutters who cut firewood passed by:
"Ugh! I said Ji Laosan! It's cold! ”
"Yes! This ghost weather, there is no wild things on this mountain, or you can get a pheasant, a hare or something, and then you can roast it to warm your body. ”
"That's it!" At this time, Ji Laosan suddenly heard the sound of a horse.
"Ugh! Two brothers, did you hear that? There seemed to be the sound of horses barking in the mountain stream over there. ”
"I said the third child! Where will there be horses in these barren mountains and mountains? ”
"Ugh! I said two brothers, maybe there are a few wild horses, or some big family lost horses, when the time comes, you can catch them, and you can also make up for the family. ”
"Hey!" The other two woodcutters saw Ji Laosan's greedy look, and they all looked at Ji Laosan's back. Finger-pointing. But when Ji Laosan came to the edge of the mountain cliff and looked down, he was so frightened that he couldn't make a sound. When the other people saw Ji Laosan's appearance, they all pointed and pointed, and when the other people came to Ji Laosan's side and looked down, they were all stunned. Below the mountain stream is a walking Turkic army, as a Guanzhong people, the people of Guanzhong are too familiar with the Turkic attire and banners.
"This ...... What a good thing that is! Ji Laosan's legs were already shaking. But there was a man who used to be a county clerk who said:
"Okay, what are you still doing? Hurry up and go back to the county, go and report to the county commander, let the county commander report to the assassin as soon as possible, report to the court quickly, and let the court send troops, quickly! ”
"Okay, okay!" Several woodcutters immediately ran back, but several small pebbles fell. The Turkic cavalry discovered:
"There is someone on the cliff, chase after it, and report to the Khan quickly!" When the Khan heard about it, he immediately ordered the whole army not to go along the mountain stream, but to assemble directly:
"Boys, you've been gone for so long, it's time to get moving. Next to it is Huayin County, where there are women, cloths and livestock you like, and today Ben Khan will take you to be happy! With a roar from the Khan, the entire Turkic army ran towards Huayin City. All of a sudden, Huayin City became a hell on earth. Everywhere there were flames and the cries of women and children. There was killing and looting everywhere.
Li Shimin took the letter and asked Li Yuan:
"Father, the sons are very worried now, now most of our soldiers and horses in Li Tang Pass are concentrated near the Yan'an Fortress, and the defenders of Chang'an plus the errand are less than 20,000 people. According to the secret report, the Turkic army is no less than 200,000, and I am afraid that the number of troops is insufficient! The sons and daughters ask for their lives, the commander-in-chief Chang'an and the three auxiliary soldiers and horses, please rest assured, as long as the sons and ministers are there, Chang'an is foolproof. Li Yuan looked at Li Shimin and said with a smile:
"O people! If you're tired, I don't want you to interfere in this matter. Where is Li Yuanji, the king of Qi? Li Yuanji heard Li Yuan shouting to himself, and immediately replied to Li Yuan:
"Father, the son is here!" Li Yuan said to Li Yuanji:
"Motoyoshi! You have also experienced a lot in the army, this time the Turks are attacking, I am ready to let you be the generalissimo of the conquest, in addition, the generals of the Qin King Tiance Mansion - Qin Shubao, Cheng Yanjin, Wei Chi Jingde, Niu Jinda, Zhang Liang, Zhang Gongjin and others are all under your command, in addition, in the Chang'an garrison, you see who is suitable, you can pick it up! ”
"Yes! The father and the emperor obey the order. After Li Yuanji had just finished speaking, Li Yuan issued another order to Li Yuanba, the king of Zhao:
"Yuanba, the defense of the capital Chang'an will be handed over to you."
"Yes! Father! Li Shimin suddenly said:
"Father, the son of the prince Li Jiancheng impeached, because the prince Li Jiancheng performed the martial arts of the Yellow Emperor at the funeral of Princess Zhao of Pingyang, which angered the Turks, so the sons thought that the prince Li Jiancheng should be punished to give the Turks an explanation." Li Yuan's face was solemn - until now, he was still thinking about pulling down the prince and waiting for himself, Li Yuanba and Li Yuanji also looked at Li Shimin, and they both sneered in their hearts.
"O people! There's some truth to what you're saying, so be it! Moon! ”
"The slave is here!"
"The decree is that the crown prince Li Jiancheng has made a mistake in handling the funeral of Princess Pingyang Zhao, and he ordered to be grounded in front of the tomb of Princess Pingyang Zhao, and after the Turkic army left, he made a decision! Chin this! After Li Shimin heard Li Yuan's holy decree, he immediately stopped talking. After Li Shimin returned to the mansion, he immediately found Xie Shufang and Xue Wanche:
"Uncle, Wan Che, do you know? The father appointed this king as the general manager of the conquest of the Turks, and when the time comes, he will directly crusade against the Turks, and the generals of the Tiance Mansion of the King of Qin - Qin Shubao, Cheng Yanjin, Wei Chi Jingde, Niu Jinda, Zhang Liang, Zhang Gongjin and others are all under your command, and the fierce generals in the Chang'an garrison have been transferred by this king, which is really good. When the time comes, when these people come under the command of this king, the king will cut him down according to military law if he sees anyone who is not pleasing to his eyes. Also, as long as this king has made great contributions, "Xie Shufang and Xue Wanche congratulated this Li Yuanji. In addition, don't forget to remind Li Yuanji:
"Your Highness! Qin Shubao, Cheng Biting Jin, Yu Chi Jingde, Niu Jinda, Zhang Liang, Zhang Gongjin and others are all fierce generals in the world, and I hope that His Royal Highness will secretly win over them first! ”
"Yes! Your Highness, now Your Highness is using people, and I hope Your Highness's subordinates will be merciful! Li Yuanji said disapprovingly:
"Humph! What is the fierce general in the world, what is the mercy of his subordinates, at the beginning, the king continued to woo Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling, what was the result, it was not a bamboo basket to draw water, so today the king made up his mind, if he didn't obey at that time, he would kill him directly. Xie Shufang and Xue Wanche didn't dare to say anything, so they had to worry secretly on the side. After Li Shimin, the king of Qin, returned to the mansion, he immediately found the eldest grandson Wuji, Chai Shao, ! Qin Shubao, Cheng Yanjin, Wei Chi Jingde, Niu Jinda, Zhang Liang, Zhang Gongjin and others.
"Everyone, this king has received the news, Li Yuanji, the king of Qi, has been named the generalissimo of the conquest of the Turks, and you will all be under the command of His Royal Highness the King of Qi at that time, if the result will be at that time, there is no need for this king to say!"! The eldest grandson Wuji, Chai Shao, Qin Shubao, Cheng Yanjin, Yu Chi Jingde, Niu Jinda, Zhang Liang, Zhang Gongjin and others listened to the words of Qin King Li Shimin, the expressions on their faces were different, Zhang Liang and Zhang Gongjin were originally born as generals, and they had no opinion on who was the master, Qin Shubao, Cheng Yanjin, Yu Chi Jingde, and Niu Jinda were all reckless thieves, and they originally thought that they could follow King Qin to get ahead, but they didn't expect to end up with such a result. Chai Shao is not to mention, his marriage to Princess Pingyang Zhao was caused by Li Jiancheng, if Li Shimin is not powerful, then what future does he have? The eldest grandson Wuji immediately spoke:
"Your Highness, do you want to sit back and wait like this, Your Highness, if Your Highness is unlucky in the future, those of us who are subordinates are not the same, it is better to take risks. Capture and kill His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the King of Qi together! Beichen has already contacted Chang He, the guard of the Xuanwu Gate, and Chang He has promised to help His Highness ambush His Highness in the Xuanwu when the time comes. Chai Shao followed up and said:
"Your Highness, haven't you already formed an alliance with His Royal Highness King Zhao? When the time comes, His Royal Highness King Zhao will definitely support you to ascend the throne as emperor. After listening to the words of the eldest grandson Wuji and Chai Shao, the faces of Qin Shubao, Cheng Yanjin, Wei Chi Jingde, Niu Jinda, Zhang Liang, Zhang Gongjin and others showed a ray of hope.
"Your Highness, take us with you!" Li Shimin said with tears on his face:
"Everyone, you are trapping the lonely king in injustice!"
"Lord Wang, if you don't make up your mind, the wives and children of these people will all be tied to you, Lord Wang!"
"Yes! Lord, you can take us with you! Li Shimin looked at the eldest grandson Wuji, Chai Shao, Qin Shubao, Cheng Yanjin, Yu Chi Jingde, Niu Jinda, Zhang Liang, Zhang Gongjin and others. He nodded in feigned pain.
