Chapter 398: Take Control of the Situation

Feeling everyone's trusting gaze, Li Su's heart warmed.

He said: "Thank you for your trust, I would like to state one thing first, the emperor is my father, maybe he doesn't care about me as a son, but I always regard him as my father, respect him, love him."

I make it clear here that no matter how the emperor treats me, I will always respect and love him. ”

Hearing his statement, the ministers were relieved.

Wei Zheng said: "The minister can trust His Royal Highness the Prince, now that the situation is serious, please talk directly about how to face the crisis." ”

Li Su said: "Now, the emperor's temperament has changed greatly, and his behavior cannot be judged by ordinary people.

I am worried that if the troops are withdrawn at this time, the emperor will take the initiative and start killing, and Chang'an City will be a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood. ”

The ministers' worries about Li Su were not considered alarmist, and with Li Shimin's personality, they would never be soft on killing people.

Everyone didn't speak, waiting for Li Su to continue.

Li Su said: "The cause of this incident is because of Li Tai, my opinion is that things have reached this point, we must continue to adhere to our set goals, we must get rid of Li Tai, the king of Wei, this bane must not be left." ”

Huang Furui said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is right, once the emperor eases up and reuses Li Tai, what will become of the court?" It's conceivable. The evil is eradicated, and Li Tai cannot be left with any chance. ”

Wei Zheng said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, please don't say any more reasons, just say what to do, now the time is pressing, and the ministers and others will obey the orders of His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

Wei Zheng was anxious, worried that if time dragged on, there would be other changes.

Li Su said: "Okay. Li Jing. ”

"The minister is here." Li Jing replied.

"You immediately rush back to the General Staff, in the name of the General Staff, issue a written order, send people to all places, prohibit any troops, leave the camp without authorization, and violators will be punished for treason,"

"Minister, obey the order." Li Jing said.

"Wei Zheng." Li Su said: "You immediately rush to Jingzhao Mansion and order Jingzhao Yin Chuyun to maintain law and order in the capital." ”

"Obey." Wei Zheng replied.

"Wei Chigong. You immediately rush back to the military headquarters, gather all the high-ranking generals of the army in Chang'an, go to the military headquarters for a meeting, explain the situation to them, and stabilize the morale of the army. Li Su said.

"Obey." Wei Chigong said.

Li Xiaogong said: "In this way, I will go to the military department with Jingde, and the generals will give me face." ”

Wei Chigong said: "This is the best, King Li Jun's face is bigger than mine, and he is the best." ”

Subsequently, Li Su asked Cheng Yanjin to go to the Armed Police Headquarters to assist Hou Junji in controlling the troops. Gao Jingming, Huang Furui, Ma Zhou, Yu Ningzhi and others gathered all the ministers and rushed to the palace.

Li Su wants to have a final showdown with Li Shimin in the palace.

Two hours ago, the Lizheng Palace.

"Sons and daughters, see the queen mother." Li Tai saluted and said.

Empress Changsun saw Li Tai's smug look and asked, "The rumors on the streets of Chang'an were spread by you, right?" ”

"What rumors, son-in-law doesn't know?" Li Tai pretended to be stupid and said.

Empress Eldest Sun was angry and said, "You still dare to quibble? ”

Li Tai said: "Queen Mother, Li Su instigated the ministers to boycott the dynasty, obviously against his father, what is the difference between them and rebellion?

Besides, they want the lives of their sons, can't they even resist? ”

Empress Eldest Sun said: "This is not what you asked for. Your father and I have worked hard to ensure that you go to Hedong to be a rich and noble prince, but you want to die, which is in vain for our hard work. ”

Li Tai smiled: "Queen Mother." You don't have to worry, Erchen is fine, it's the damn three evils who are dying. Now that my father is extremely dissatisfied with him and will soon dispose of him, what else do you have to worry about? ”

"You ......" Empress Eldest Sun was so angry that she couldn't speak.

At this time, a eunuch said: "Queen Qiyu, I don't know what happened outside, the palace is under martial law." ”

Li Tai was very excited and said, "Haha! Erchen understood, it seems that his father did it, this time, I see how the three evils died? ”

Empress Changsun didn't know what was going on, but listening to Li Tai's tone, it seemed that Li Shimin was stimulated by the rumors on the street and wanted to deal with the crown prince Li Su.

Empress Eldest Sun was worried, she knew that the crown prince Li Su was not a fuel-efficient lamp, and the situation was probably not something that Li Shimin could control.

Sure enough, not long after, the little eunuch ran and said, "Queen Mother, it's not good, something is wrong." Du He surrounded the palace with the Flying Tiger Army, and he also brought cannons! ”

"Huh?" At this moment, Li Tai realized the danger and was so frightened that he sat down in his chair.

Empress Changsun's face turned pale, sighed, and said, "Retribution, this is fate!" ”

She remembered the tragic Xuanwumen Incident, and knew that this time it was not only Li Tai who could not be safeguarded, but even Li Shimin was probably in danger.

Empress Changsun looked at Li Tai, silently shedding tears, and her eyes showed all kinds of complicated expressions of disappointment, disgust, and pity.

After a long time, she said, "Tai'er, you can't go back anyway, let's have lunch with the queen mother." ”

Li Tai was very nervous and sent someone to find out the news. Soon after, the sound of cannon fire was heard in the direction of the palace gates.

This cannon shot shattered Li Tai's luck psychology. It seems that the three evils are really angry, and he is really scared now, worried that Li Shimin will not be able to protect himself.

The military strength of Chang'an City is mainly the General Staff Headquarters and its directly subordinate teams, the Flying Tiger Army, the Military Academy, the Armed Police Headquarters and its directly subordinate teams, and the Chang'an General Corps of the Armed Police.

The General Staff is under the control of Li Jing, the Military Academy is under the control of Li Xiaogong, not to mention the Flying Tiger Army, these troops are equivalent to the prince's men.

Speaking of the Armed Police Headquarters, the current commander is Sun Wuda, the prince of Qingshui County, and he, Hou Junji and others are one of the nine generals of the Qin Palace, he received Li Shimin's holy decree and is preparing to transfer troops to the palace to escort him.

The holy decree did not say who the enemy was, because Li Shimin did not know who would rebel at that time, he just took defensive measures.

Gongsun Wuda sent people to inform the deputy commander, chief of staff, and other chiefs of the armed police headquarters to hold a meeting to plan the action.

At this moment, he received a report that the Flying Tiger Army had been dispatched, and he was now confused, thinking that the Flying Tiger Army was also escorting the palace.

However, before they could finish the meeting, they received a report that the Flying Tiger Army had placed a cordon on the headquarters of the armed police. Now, he was even more confused.

Then, Hou Junji rushed over.

After listening to Hou Junji's introduction, the top level of the armed police understood the current situation.

Gongsun Wuda was a diehard loyalist of Li Shimin, however, he had just been transferred from the position of commander of the Jingzhou Military Region, and the other heads of the Armed Police Headquarters were all close associates of Hou Junji, and he could not control the Armed Police Force for a while.

Gongsun Wuda is an old bureaucrat, although he has not been in Chang'an for a long time, he is still clear about the situation in the military circles of Chang'an. He could count it on his fingers, the main military forces of Chang'an City were controlled by His Royal Highness the Prince, and even if he wanted to defend the palace, he couldn't do it.

So, Gongsun Wuda listened to Hou Junji's advice, stood still, and remained silent.

After Cheng Yanjin arrived, Hou Junji asked him to go to the Chang'an Armed Police Corps to directly control the troops, accompanied by the chief of staff of the armed police.

At this point, the entire armed forces of Chang'an are all in the hands of His Royal Highness the Prince.

After receiving reports from all walks of life, the crown prince Li Su was relieved and left the palace of Hejian County and went to the palace. Mobile phone users should browse and read for a better reading experience.
