Chapter 12 Fish in the Pond
Three years have passed in a blink of an eye, Li Shimin, the quasi-brother-in-law of the third prince, suddenly came to Wanfu Restaurant with a heavy gift to thank Li Yuxuan for saving his life, and Li Yuxuan, who received the notice, immediately rode back to Wanfu Restaurant, and just approached Wanfu Restaurant, he found that there were Tang sergeants led by the general soldiers of Youzhou City guarding the corners around Wanfu Restaurant, and there were also sergeants on the surrounding roofs to guard against assassins.
After Li Yuxuan reported his identity to the sergeant who blocked the street, the sergeant on duty found the nearby neighbors to confirm before he was allowed to let go, led the horse and marched slowly among the sergeants on both sides of the road, and came to the door of Wanfu Restaurant to see the guards of the third prince Li Shimin standing on both sides of the door.
Under the guidance of his father, Li Yuxuan passed the examination of the guards on both sides one by one, entered a single room on the second floor, and saw the third prince Li Shimin sitting in the center, surrounded by more than ten guards of the mortal qi refining stage, under the wave of the third prince Li Shimin, Li Chuanzhi consciously withdrew, and one of the guards closed the door casually.
The third prince Li Shimin said with a smile on his face: "A few years ago, fortunately Li Gongzi rescued him in the Crouching Tiger Mountains, this prince remembered it in his heart, and he was always worried, but he was entangled in trivial matters and had no time to come.
Brother Li is really hidden, I heard the little sister say, the Taoist Sect gave you a VIP token, do you know that the Sect's Guizong token has nine sides, and only three are issued, and the other two are in the hands of the father emperor and the Great Zhou Emperor! This token can mobilize the following disciples of the Dao Sect Elder to fight for you!
This prince has always been straightforward, I want to ask you to go out of the mountain to help me take the throne, now my father's mind is not too clear, I am worried that he will be misled by my other brothers, so that the Tang Dynasty will fall into crisis, so that the people of Li are in chaos, and the water is in dire straits. I will crown you as the king of one word and share the world of the Tang Dynasty with me!
Listen to Xiaomei, you are really in love, but you should know that I am a Shizi generation, and you are a Yuzi generation, according to the generation, my little sister and I are two generations higher than you, and the feudal officials and princes of the third generation who ask for marriage to their father abound, and you have too many rivals. As long as you pledge your allegiance to me, I will settle them for you and make you my brother-in-law!"
Li Chuanzhi, who was outside the door, heard this, his forehead was covered with cold sweat, his strands trembled, and he didn't stand firm and sat on the ground.
Li Yuxuan looked directly at the eyes of the third prince Li Shimin, and said with a calm expression: "Senior Li Yuxuan, thank you for the weight of the third prince!" The battle for the throne has always been a battle of life and death, and the three princes stood up to fight for the throne so early, and they will only be used as pawns by some seemingly unintentional princes to participate in the fight against each other. Li Yuxuan said, pausing suddenly.
The third prince, Li Shimin, agreed, beckoned, and said: "You two go to the door, without my permission, no one is allowed to get close to this single room ten meters, violators will be killed!" The third prince, Li Shimin, took out a gold medal and threw it to the two guards who came out.
The two guards came to the door with gold medals in their hands, and shouted in unison: "The three princes order, the idlers and others retreat ten meters, and those who dare to approach will be killed!" The other guards beside the door helped Li Chuanzhi to retreat ten meters, his sword was unsheathed, and an invisible murderous aura emanated out, startling a group of birds and frolicking on the eaves.
Li Yuxuan lowered his voice and continued: "Third prince, the top priority is to stop continuing to compete with other princes, and while showing favor to them, show your edge, let them have some scruples, and dispel their urge to destroy you easily. Let the forces loyal to themselves have not been revealed, and they have turned into underground secret contacts. The third prince, you deliberately showed a small flaw, took advantage of the situation to launch the competition, waited and watched the battle of the other princes, and secretly took down the commander of the forbidden army and the general army of Chang'an City, or set them up.
In the dormant time, don't be too calm, arouse the suspicion of the princes who are competing for hegemony, cut off those who are calm and unmoved, and extinguish the hidden dangers in advance. Wait until the other princes are mortally wounded, and then use all your forces to destroy your brothers, their subordinates can stay, try to keep their mouths alive, these capable people are able to govern the country when the world is peaceful.
The third prince doesn't have to rush to kill me, if you come here with such fanfare, the princes of all other parties will default to me being your power, and they will take action to help you force me to a situation where I can only take refuge in you. I am now close to Mahayana strength, these guards around you are not my opponents, and my weakness is your sister, which is also firmly grasped in your hands. ”
A guard beside the third prince Li Shimin quickly wrote down Li Yuxuan's words, knelt on the ground, and respectfully handed them to the third prince Li Shimin with both hands.
The third prince, Li Shimin, took the piece of paper, swept his eyes quickly, gently dried the ink, folded it carefully, put it in his arms, laughed heartily, stepped forward and patted Li Yuxuan's shoulder, and said: "Brother-in-law-to-be, the future one-word side by side king, you are too worried, how can I hurt my family?" In the future, our contact will be handled by Xue'er's guards, who dares to interfere with your love, I will kill him, and return to the palace first for my brother, if you have something, just come to Jingwangfu to find me! ”
The third prince, Li Shimin, with his guards, returned to Chang'an City under the escort of the general soldiers of Youzhou along the way. Li Yuxuan hung a sign outside the restaurant that "the hotel is repaired for a day, temporarily closed", closed the door of the restaurant, and gathered everyone in the lobby of the restaurant.
Li Yuxuan sighed lightly and said calmly: "I'm sorry to frighten everyone, this time I have been involved in the battle for the throne, and I can't be good, this turmoil will inevitably affect here, everyone is ready to follow me into the Crouching Tiger Mountains at any time, today I will sort out the valuables in the store, put the iron rope soft armor into the coat, and sleep in the clothes at night, each person will have a flute, and it will be blown immediately in case of attack!" Everyone went their separate ways to prepare. ”
The people of Wanfu Restaurant spent three days in fear, Zeng Yiyang arrived on a horse, as soon as he arrived, he immediately went straight to the kitchen, found Li Yuxuan, and said with his hands in his fists: "His subordinate Zeng Yiyang, I have seen the lord, I received an urgent report from the tiger soul, after the patriarch of the lord's family, Li Shiwen, and the envoy of the eldest prince met, and secretly met with the general soldiers of Youzhou City, and the ten cultivators of the forces to which the eldest prince belonged have set off to rush here, and the highest strength is the realm of Jiedan, which is expected to arrive within half an hour!" The Heng Jiu'er brothers led the Tiger Tooth Legion and the Tiger Roar Legion to be on standby. ”
Li Yuxuan put down the ingredients at hand and shouted in a low voice: "Everyone copy the guy and rush out of Youzhou City with me!" ”
The sharp whistle sounded, and under the surprised eyes of many diners, all the people of Wanfu Restaurant held sharp blades, carried bulging bags on their backs, and led the horses to appear and gather at the door of the store, flying on the horses, led by Li Yuxuan.
The archers who were in ambush on the eaves along the way opened their bows and arrows to the people of Wanfu Restaurant under the command of the commander of the hundreds, and not far away, ten horses rushed into the city, led by one of them holding a gold medal in his hand, and then the soldiers defending the city closed the city gate.
Everyone in Wanfu Restaurant got off the horse and gathered together, Zeng Yiyang Daguan knife flew up and down and knocked arrows, and there were still arrows shot into the crowd, and a few arrows were shot on everyone's iron rope soft armor, just a stumble, and Zhuo Yifan and Jin Dayou were each hit by an arrow on their arms, and the blood flowed like a note, Zhao Ling'er and Yu'er next to them broke the arrows, and tore off the hem of their skirts to bandage them simply.
Li Yuxuan flew up, and the strong wind under his palm swept down the archers on the eaves on both sides. Li Yuxuan turned his head to look at Zhuo Yifan and Jin Dayou, who were arrows in the eyes, and shouted: "Brother Zeng Yiyang, my family has been handed over to you, send a signal!" ”
The ice flames and scorching flames the size of a human head in Li Yuxuan's hands were blazing, and the air around him, while ice mist appeared, there was a crackling sound of firecrackers, facing the family masters led by Li Shiwen who had gathered, the elite soldiers under the leadership of the general soldiers of Youzhou City, and the ten cultivators who were released from the True Yuan in a row, and they stepped straight into the air.
Zeng Yiyang held the Daguan knife with one hand, took out a cylindrical object with one hand, and said in a low voice: "Uncle, help light the fuse." ”
Li Chuanzhi took out the fire fold, blew it, lit the fuse, and shot a fireball from the cylinder in Zeng Yiyang's hand, making a loud noise in the sky, like a thunderbolt in the clear sky, deafening.
Li Yuxuan rushed in alone, his palms flying all over the sky with ice flames and scorching flames, and those he touched either turned into an ice sculpture, or his whole body instantly burst into flames. After Li Yuxuan killed three cultivators and seven ordinary martial artists, the enemies around him did not dare to approach, and they dodged one after another, attacking remotely with darts and energy shockwaves.
Two cannons rang out outside the city, the gate of Youzhou City was blown away, Heng Jiu'er, who was dressed in white and white armor, waved his hand, and a team of cavalry held a continuous iron tire bow and crossbow to shoot accurately at the defenders of Youzhou City, and the rockets rained down, instantly putting down hundreds of sergeants on the city head and in front of the city gate, and nearly a hundred sergeants shouted: "The Huya Legion is here!" Death to those who dare to hurt our master! ”
A roar sounded in the air, four helicopters crossed the city, and a burst of machine gun fire from the helicopters directly killed half of the enemies surrounding Li Yuxuan, and the remaining enemies retreated in horror. Outside the city, accompanied by a roar, six tanks entered Youzhou City in turn, guarding Li Yuxuan's side, and a loud voice came from the helicopter and the tank: "The Tiger Roaring Legion is here, those who dare to offend our master die!" ”
Escorted by the Huya Legion, everyone in Wanfu Restaurant entered the tank. Li Yuxuan stood in the middle of the audience and shouted: "I, Li Yuxuan, stand up to the sky and the earth, and have never done anything that violates the laws of the Tang Dynasty, but unfortunately I was involved in the dispute over the throne, and who else wants to continue to be a substitute for the dead, just come to Crouching Tiger Mall!" The grand voice echoed throughout Youzhou City.
Li Yuxuan and Zeng Yiyang flew on their horses, escorted by the Huya Legion, and after the Tiger Roar Legion was broken, they went out of the city under the eyes of the soldiers and civilians of Youzhou City and went straight to the Crouching Tiger Mall.
The seven cultivators who survived and belonged to the Great Prince stared at the trembling generals of the defenders of Youzhou City and the warriors brought by Li Shiwen, and the cultivators led by them reprimanded angrily: "Look at what kind of system you have become, a hairy boy will scare you like this, give me a month to level that Crouching Tiger Mall, and cut off that Li Yuxuan's head, otherwise I will take down your head!" ”
The seven cultivators belonging to the Great Prince, with the remains of their companions, flew on their horses and returned to Chang'an to restore their lives.
