Chapter 422 The Chang'an Coup
After resting in Lishan for more than half a month, Gao Hu received a secret report from Chang'an Shangwei that Li Shimin was critically ill!
An He sighed when he heard the newspaper, it is now the eve of the Spring Festival of Zhenguan Feinian, according to historical records, there are still 3 months at most, and Li Shimin, the male lord of the Tang Dynasty, is about to return to heaven! People, whether they are heroes or bears, great men or common people, there will always be such a day - death, the cycle of life and death, the cycle of heaven, no one can escape!
He turned his face away, wrapped his fur cloak tightly, and said softly, "Ling'er, inform Feng Yue, pass the order, and set off back to Chang'an immediately!" β
2 months later, Zhenguan Wannian t
Chang'an, Lishan, Cuiwei Palace with wind hall. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ info
Li Shimin was half-flickered on the bed, his pale face did not have a trace of brilliance, his eye sockets were deep-set, and his gaze was bleak and confused. Turning his head heavily, he looked at the eldest grandson Wuji and Chu Suiliang who were kneeling on the ground under the bed with a sad face, and said in a trembling voice, "Eldest grandson Aiqing, Zhu Aiqing, I, I, I can't resist the destiny of heaven, God is going to summon me back to heaven!" β
The eldest grandson Wuji and Chu Suiliang wept bitterly, knocked their heads heavily on the ground, made a loud sound, and cried, "Your Majesty, you must take care of the dragon body, Datang can't do without Your Majesty!" β
"People always die, and I am no exception. No, there is no need to be so sad, two Aiqing, I have summoned you to entrust this Tang Dynasty and the crown prince Li Zhi to you, I hope you can treat my emperor like me, and assist him to pass on the Tang Dynasty for thousands of years! Li Shimin gasped violently and waved his hand lightly, "You guys stand down first, Princess Yuzhang!" β
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty! The minister retires, Your Majesty takes care of the dragon's body! β
Yu Zhang almost cried bitterly and ran all the way into the temple. "Father!" She threw herself to the ground in grief.
"Yuzhang, don't be sad. My father is old. Always leaving you. What worries me the most is you children. Li Shimin coughed. Half a sound said, "Yuzhang, did An He return to Chang'an?" β
"No, it's still on the way, Father!" Yu Zhang knelt down a few steps and stepped forward to hold Li Shimin's hand tightly. Tears rained down.
"Yu Zhang, An and this person are calm and capable, both civil and military. He also had a very good relationship with the prince. In the future, with him taking care of the three of you, I will be relieved. But, in the future, ......" Li Shimin sighed hard, "Yuzhang, in the future...... This edict will keep you in peace. Take it, go and call the prince in. β
Yu Zhang hid his face and wept and staggered out of the Hanfeng Palace.
"Zhi'er, I'm going, this great Tang Dynasty will be handed over to you, you must uphold my legacy, strengthen the country and enrich the soldiers, be pro-virtuous and virtuous, far from the villain, and continue my Tang Dynasty for thousands of years!" Li Shimin's eyes brightened, and at this moment, his whole body was radiant, and his voice was also loud, "State affairs, I have been teaching you for a long time, only this matter, I still have a few words to say." Remember, you must be kind to your compatriots and sisters, be harmonious and friendly, and never fight brothers in the same room and make my Tang royal family fall apart! β
Li Zhidi's tears were already blindfolded, and he knelt down deeply, "Father, sons, keep in mind!" β
2 days later, the cow hour moment. Cuiwei Palace let out a heaven-shattering cry, "Your Majesty returns to heaven!" β
3 days later. Chang'an, the whole country mourns.
It was gray and the air was a little damp and cold. Chang'an, Taiji Palace, Taiji Palace. Fang Yiai, Xue Wanche, and Chai Lingwu stood in a triangle in the hall, coldly looking at the Manchu Dynasty civil and military who was surrounded by dozens of black-clothed sword-wielding warriors, and their eyes radiated a feverish light.
"Fang Yiai, Xuan Ling is the brainbone loyal minister of the Tang Dynasty, how did you give birth to a rebellious ancient student!" The eldest grandson Wuji trembled, his hands trembled, and he shouted loudly.
"Shut up, you old thing! Ladies and gentlemen, the bereaved love has just said, the crown prince Li Zhi is weak and incompetent, mediocre, and the great country of the Tang Dynasty is in his hands, we are not at ease, and the people of the Tang Dynasty are not at ease. We want to support the Ming Lord...... "The love of the house is gloomy and authentic."
The tall Xue Wanche waved his hand and interrupted him, "Don't talk nonsense with them anymore, half an hour, just half an hour, you must sign the edict of Li Yuanjingdi, the king of Jing, otherwise, you will be killed!" β
Chai Lingwu turned his short and fat body, his eyes turned into a slit, and he said coldly, "His Royal Highness the Prince, why bother?" If the stalemate continues, there will only be a dead end.
In and outside the palace, it is all our people, just outside this Tai Chi Palace, there are dead men who are not afraid of death, how long can you resist? As long as you sign this edict and announce your abdication to His Royal Highness King Jing, it will not be difficult for me to wait for you, and I can still keep your land king. β
Li Zhi was expressionless, standing lonely in front of the throne that originally belonged to Li Shimin, his cold eyes slid over the three of Fang Yiai one by one, and said in a low voice, "Fang Yiai, your father is a loyal minister of the Tang Dynasty, do you want to be a rebel of the Tang Dynasty?" Xue Wanche, Chai Lingwu, the two of you are my Tang Dynasty concubines, my father is not waiting for you, now my father has just returned to heaven, you dare to force the palace with armor, aren't you afraid that this palace will punish you nine clans? β
"Hahaha, Li Zhi, I have been planning for many years, just waiting for this day, now this palace inside and outside the palace, and even Chang'an are all our people, why do you treat us for the crime? Rebellion? The king is not virtuous, the minister should choose the good master, not to mention that you are just the prince! Fang Yiai laughed wildly, "In that case, come on, go and invite His Royal Highness the Crown Prince down!" β
"Good, good!" Li Zhi suddenly sneered. The two eunuchs behind him suddenly took off their palace hats and robes, and they were actually a man and a woman, Gao Hu and Ouyang Feiyu!
At the silver flash in Gao Hu's hand, a soft sword flicked a sword flower, standing tremblingly, he stepped forward and tightly guarded Li Zhi behind his back. And Ouyang Feiyu stretched out his hand, and the sword on his back also came out of its sheath, and slowly walked down the steps of the throne in the palace, and slowly forced towards Fang Yuai.
"Come on, take it!" Fang Yiai exclaimed, and Xue Wanche glanced at each other, and his heart was shocked.

With a deep voice coming in, An He, who was dressed in bright silver armor and holding a sword in his hand, rushed in with a group of soldiers of the Divine Machine Battalion, and with a slight wave of his hand, the soldiers surrounded the black-clothed warriors in a group.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is frightened, and your lords are frightened." An He smiled faintly and strode over. Bow to Li Zhi.
"You can rest assured. The Rebellious Guards have been disarmed and imprisoned outside the palace, and those dead soldiers have all been killed on the spot! An He said softly, turning around to face the pale-faced Fang Yiai and the three, "Fang Yiai." You didn't expect my Uncle Xue to return to Beijing, did you? I thought you were just a little sinister, but I didn't expect you to be so mad that you were driven by a woman to embark on such a road of no return to destruction! β
"You. You ...... "Fang Yuai is shocked and frightened." I couldn't speak anymore. No matter what, they didn't expect that this An He would actually return to Chang'an, and. also colluded with Li Zhi to give himself a tea base salary! It seems that people have set up a trap and are waiting for themselves and others to jump in.
"Take it!" An He snorted coldly, and suddenly jumped forward with a brisk step, and a sword pierced through a black-clothed warrior guarding in front of Fang Yiai, blood gushed out, splashing Fang Yiai behind him.
Fang Yiai's face was splashed with blood, he trembled as if his body, and before he woke up, he was grabbed by Gao Su and held it up.
A bloody palace coup d'Γ©tat turned into nothing. It's easy to say, in fact, this means that An He and Li Zhi knew the news of Fang Yiai's party rebellion in advance, and they had already made full preparations. On that day, the reason why An He let Yingge and Sun Yanzhen return to Chang'an halfway was to deal with Fang's rebellion in advance.
In fact, as early as the day before Li Shimin's death, An He went to camp thirty miles outside Chang'an City. He asked Feng Yue to be stationed outside the city with the Shenji Battalion, he took Gao Hu and others into the city quietly, and he didn't even return to the mansion, he went straight into the East Palace, and trained Li Zhi in detail for a long time, thinking of every detail of dealing with the rebellion, after all, this is a matter of his throne and net worth, and Li Zhi can't be careless.
Early this morning, seeing the signal sent by Gao Su, Feng Yue led 5,000 people from the Shenji Battalion into the city with lightning speed and took over the defense of the Imperial Forest Army. In the Imperial Forest Army, there were originally guards from Li Zhidong's Palace in ambush, and in less than half an hour, the rebels were defeated.
As for the dead soldiers who lurked outside the Taiji Palace and were used by Fang Yiai to prevent accidents, they were all surrounded by the soldiers of Feng Yue's demigod machine battalion and killed by random arrows. Of course, the dead are not afraid of death, but after all, they are also human and earthly bodies, no matter how fierce and brave they are, it is impossible to be invulnerable, and most of the dead soldiers fell in the rain of arrows without reacting. Although there were also some dead soldiers who braved the rain of arrows to launch a counterattack, in front of the soldiers of the Divine Machine Battalion, which was several times larger, they could only be trapped beasts fighting and dying and struggling.
How to deal with Fang Yiai and others, that is Li Zhi's business. With Gao Hu and Ouyang Feiyu, as well as some of the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion, Jian Feng rushed from the palace to the Jiangxia Palace, where there was an opponent who had been hiding behind the scenes for a long time waiting for him.
Jiangxia Palace. The door was open, and on the empty field in front of the door, dozens of black-clothed dead soldiers protected a charming ** in it - Princess Zhang of Jiangxia. In the distance, the sound of horses' hooves was like thunder, and a trace of despair and viciousness flashed on Zhang's soft face, and he gently looked at the head in his hand and muttered to himself, "It's over, it's all over!" β
An He rushed with hundreds of cavalry.
An He turned over and dismounted, stood on the sidelines, stared coldly at the Zhang family for a while, and then slowly spoke, "You, a dignified princess, have glory and wealth and do not enjoy it, is it worth it to do this rebellious thing?" β
"There's nothing worth it or nothing to lose. Anhe, I regret it, I should have gotten rid of you a long time ago! Zhang glanced at him angrily, his gorgeous face full of hatred.
"You may be excusable for killing me, but why are you trying to plunge Zhang Liang's family into the abyss from which they will never recover?" An He sighed, Zhang is Zhang Shigui's daughter, he only learned about it recently, but what he has been unable to figure out is that Zhang may hate himself for Zhang Zhibiao, whose brother died in his hands one by one, but why did she treat Zhang Liang like this?
"Hmph. Zhang Feng, the dog thief, deceived my feelings and abandoned me from the beginning...... For three whole years, all my heart was on him, and he actually married another woman, I hate! From the moment I married into the Jiangxia Palace, I swore that my wife would let Zhang Feng's whole family be emotionally buried for my dead girl! Zhang's gloomy voice echoed in Xue Jian's ears, making him shudder a little, this woman is too vicious!
"I still don't understand, why did you come here because you worked so hard to incite the three of your bereaved lovers to rebel against the palace? What does King Jing have to do with you as emperor? An He let out a long breath and calmed his shock.
"What is King Jing? It's just a rice bucket, just a minister who covets my beautiful skirt. If it weren't for me planning behind my back and operating for many years, how would he dare to openly rebel, hahahaha! Zhang laughed wildly, his expression was terrible, and he was extremely crazy.
Ann He gasped. It turns out that this woman's ambition is so big! Unexpectedly, he did not hesitate to sell his body and seduce King Jing as her bait and puppet to realize his terrible desire for power. He sighed, no wonder this Tang Dynasty has produced the only female emperor Wu Zetian in history throughout the ages, it seems that the women of the Tang Dynasty, especially some nobles, are really not a few who are eager for power!
An He looked at Zhang, and suddenly felt nauseous, dizzy, and wanted to vomit.
He turned around slowly, no longer wanting to look at this terrible woman, and said lightly, "Take it!" Rebels, slash! β
"Anhe, you are indeed a talent. However, you followed Li Zhi, hum, and in the end, there was no good end. I'm going, Anhe, and I'll take a good look at the Netherworld to see what happens to you in the future! Zhang raised her head to the sky, the dagger slipped from her sleeve, her hand flipped over, and it was slammed into her chest, a bloody light appeared, she shook her body, and fell backwards.
An He was slightly shocked, and then roared angrily, "Kill them all, and don't let any of them go!" β
After that, he turned over his horse and rode away to his god horse mansion. On the way, he was distraught for a while, and he was really tired of this power struggle life.
At this moment, he suddenly had a desire to retire, withdraw from this whirlpool of power, and take his own woman to live a peaceful life for a few years. However, he is a miraculous horse, he is a confidant that Li Zhi relies on, and he has a huge responsibility on his shoulders, and he has to ...... It is destined that this kind of thinking is just a thought. (To be continued.) )
