Chapter 617 is exactly that person

Li Yuan is not a person without family affection, but almost all family affection is given to Li Jiancheng alone. Li Jiancheng is the eldest son of Yan and the one who wants to inherit everything from him. Li Yuan can be said to have done his best to train Li Jiancheng, when he was supervising grain in Huaiyuan Town, Liaoxi, he almost handed over all the things at hand to Li Jiancheng to do, the purpose was to make him familiar with the war, and familiarizing himself with the war from the beginning of logistics can often make people understand more deeply and thoroughly.

Later, he was transferred by Yang Guang to Hedong as the ambassador of Xuanfu, and the daily affairs in the yamen were also handed over to Li Jiancheng to deal with. He just wants to let Li Jiancheng get in touch with government affairs and military affairs earlier and more comprehensively, so that he can grow up faster.

Later, he ascended the throne and became emperor, and Li Jiancheng handled the daily government as the crown prince. Those twists and turns that were not particularly important Li Yuan were sent to the East Palace, and even the appointment and dismissal of court officials he assured that Li Jiancheng would make a decision. Only when it comes to the court officials above the fourth grade, he will personally deal with it.

After so many years of training, he has cultivated Li Jiancheng into a real all-rounder.

In government affairs, Li Jiancheng's prudence is not inferior to Li Yuan's. In military affairs, Li Jiancheng won several battles under his command. It's just that Li Yuan intends to let him get more involved in government affairs and ignore military affairs, so Li Shimin's reputation in the army is higher than that of the crown prince in comparison. But it can be assumed that if Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin are given the same number of troops, people, and land, and let them fight to the death, who can see through the victory or defeat at a glance?

But Li Jiancheng died, and all the hard work of Li Yuan's life turned into spring water and went down the river.

He cried like a father in the imperial study of Taiji Palace, not an emperor.

Pei Lian, Li Daozong and others were also sad when they looked at the emperor, but who could redeem it after the matter came to this? When the emperor was crying sadly, he asked over and over again, what can I get you back? Everyone in the imperial study knew that no matter what the emperor took, he would not be able to get back the prince's life. Even if it is the throne, the country, the people, and even the emperor's own life.

"Kill!"

Li Yuan raised his head violently, his eyes were red as if they were two blood cells. At this time, where did he have a little bit of the majesty of the emperor, he was just a father who lost two sons one after another. Li Jiancheng's death can even be said to have taken away half of his life. The moment Li Yuan got the news of Li Jiancheng's death, half of his whole person seemed to die at this moment. He even felt that the world of the Tang Dynasty had collapsed a corner.

"Kill them all!"

He pointed outside and shouted like crazy: "Kill all the bastards outside, don't leave any of them...... All traitors and thieves who participated in the rebellion will be punished by the Nine Clans! ”

"No!"

Nayan Pei Lin and the general Li Daozong shouted out almost at the same time, and then the two of them knelt on the ground and kowtowed almost at the same time: "For the sake of the Tang Dynasty, please take back your majesty's fate!" ”

"How?"

Li Yuan stood up slowly, looked at the two of them lying on their backs with cold eyes, and said coldly: "I have killed two sons, can't I avenge them?" If you stop me in this way, what do you mean by what I am doing as an emperor! ”

"Don't dare!"

All the ministers in the study knelt down and touched their heads to the ground.

Pei Lin and Li Daozong secretly glanced at each other, and then bowed slightly at the same time. Both of them knew that His Majesty's order must not be promulgated, otherwise Datang would be really chaotic. King Qin's rebellion is just a small disaster, and if this order is promulgated as a will, the Tang Dynasty is afraid that it will usher in a big disaster immediately!

"Your Majesty......"

Pei Lin raised his head, took a deep breath, and said solemnly: "The rebels have surrendered nearly 30,000 soldiers, and if the Nine Clans are punished, more than one million will be implicated!" If you continue to kill like this, it is almost equivalent to killing the people of four or five rich counties. With all due respect, the foundation of the Tang Dynasty is not very solid, and killing too heavily will inevitably cause resentment among the people......"

"Grievances! Grievances! ”

Li Yuan said angrily: "You only care about the people's grievances, then you tell me how to have no grievances!" ”

"People want to kill, and they want to kill decisively."

Li Daozong nodded to Pei Lian, and then said slowly: "None of the remnants of the rebels today can be pardoned, whether it is a traitor in the court or a rebel soldier, they will be killed." Sacrifice the soul of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in the sky with the blood of 30,000 sinners, and let those who plan to do wrong know that the laws of the Tang Dynasty cannot be blasphemed, and His Majesty's heavenly authority cannot be violated! ”

"Who is chasing that rebel!"

Li Yuan didn't pay attention to what Li Daozong said, nor did he look at Pei Lian's eager eyes. He took out a handkerchief from his cuff, squatted down and carefully wiped the blood on Li Jiancheng's face and asked, "Don't tell me, you just watched him escape like that!" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, it was Li Xiaogong, the king of Xi'an, who led the army to pursue the rebels."

Pei Lin replied.

"Send to him and tell him that all the rebels, whether they are high or low, do not take prisoners, not a single one! Pei Lian, you come to draw up the purpose and use the seal, go and write it now! ”

Don't want any of them?

Pei Lin and Li Daozong were stunned at the same time, and said in their hearts that if they really don't want any of them, then will King Qin also kill them? If the King of Qin also kills His Majesty, who will the throne pass to in the future? Although His Majesty has many heirs, there are only four sons, the eldest son Li Jiancheng, the second son Li Shimin, the third son Li Xuanba, and the fourth son Li Yuanji.

The crown prince died at the beginning, Li Yuanji, the king of Qi, died outside the eastern capital, and Li Xuanba, the third prince of Wei, fell from his horse and died, and now there is only one king of Qin left...... The throne will never be passed on to the concubine, how can Your Majesty's will be carried out?

Pei Lin stood up, and the entanglement in his heart was almost twisted into a pimple.

After being silent for a while, he took up his pen and slightly changed Li Yuan's original words in his will to Li Xiaogong.

From the general to the pawn, they are all unforgiving.

And when Li Xiaogong got this holy decree, he was first panicked and then understood. I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in my heart, and muttered a sentence from the general to the pawn, King Qin is naturally not included, he is not a general, let alone a pawn, he is the son of His Majesty the Emperor, a king.

Whether it is Pei Lin or Li Daozong, everyone knows that Li Shimin cannot be killed lightly. His Majesty is now furious, and he is extremely uncalm in what he says and does. But who knows if he will regret it when he calms down? After all, the one who is on the run is his only sister-in-law now. As for the other legendary ...... Forget it, King Qin's rebellion is already a shame for the Tang Dynasty, do you want Your Majesty to admit the existence of a child who was about to kill but didn't die? Once the news of His Majesty's killing of his son to save his life spreads, what will be left of Datang's face, His Majesty's face?

……

……

Li Shimin killed out of Chang'an City under the protection of less than 3,000 cavalry, he was already late when he went out of the city, Li Xiaogong had already led the army to block the city gate, if it were not for Wei Chigong's bravery, with hundreds of cavalry to kill through the forbidden army to kill a bloody road, Li Shimin may not be able to escape. The men and horses of Wang Suba, who he left 20 miles outside the city, were surrounded and suppressed by the elite soldiers of Hedong County, and more than 6,000 of 10,000 people were killed in the battle, and more than 3,000 surrendered. Most of the rebels commanded by Tang Jian were killed in battle, and the rest escorted Li Shimin to escape. ”

Xie Yingdeng stood behind Li Xian and hung his head and said: "There are almost 30,000 rebels trapped in Chang'an City, and it is said that Li Yuan ordered to kill all of them in a fit of rage. Since evening, he has been killing people outside the gate of the West Inner Garden, and he has not finished killing for three hours now. There are more than 30,000 human heads, and the executioner's knife is afraid that more than one of them has collapsed. ”

Li Shimin's cavalry fled all the way to the southeast, Li Xiaogong, the king of Xi'an, led the forbidden army, and more than 14,000 cavalry drawn from the elite soldiers of Hedong County pursued closely behind. In addition, Li Daozong, the king of Jiangzhou, led an army of 20,000 troops to rush to the Tang army camp in the eastern capital, presumably to prevent Li Shimin from escaping back to the eastern capital, and Li Yuan would not be at ease with Duan Zhixuan. ”

He paused for a moment and asked tentatively: "If you don't chase again, Li Shimin's light cavalry will be able to rush out for three hundred miles tonight, and it will be difficult to chase again." ”

"Why chase?"

Li Xian waved his hand and said with a smile: "That's other people's housework, what do we care?" Lone came with tens of thousands of troops, the first purpose was to see the excitement, if the excitement was not lively enough, Lone went to join in the excitement, but now the excitement is already very lively, why should Lone go to make His Majesty the Emperor feel blocked? People have lost two sons, so why should they have some sympathy, right? As for the second purpose, Lone wanted to see when he remembered Lone, and what kind of words he had to say to Lone. ”

He looked at the extraordinarily round moon in the night sky and said with some emotion: "When I am alone here, I don't send a single soldier, just let His Majesty the Emperor see my attitude." If he hadn't broken his mind because of the death of his son, he should know that he was waiting for him now. ”

He turned and walked to the tent and whispered, "Wait." ”

Xie Yingdeng was stunned, and said in his heart, tens of thousands of elites are stationed here, is it really not a single soldier? Is it really to see the excitement?

Thousands of miles away

In the night, the elite men and horses of the brigade entered the giant field with neat steps, and every soldier had a proud smile on his face. Although they are all very tired, they have fought more than 100 battles for thousands of miles in the past six months, and they are indeed a little tired to rush back to Dongping County, but they are in a good mood, and everyone is a little anxious to return to Juyeze Dazhai, take a hot bath comfortably and sleep beautifully.

Walking at the front of the line was a young man wearing a Confucian shirt and riding a red horse, there was also a wisp of tiredness between his eyebrows that could not be concealed, but like those soldiers, his eyes were more relieved and relaxed, although it took a long time, but in order to eradicate the hidden dangers of Jiangnan, he stayed in the south for two more months. Leaving Hou Junji and Zhang Liang to hold the newly captured dozen counties, he was relieved to come back after clearing out the remnants of the enemy.

He is Xu Shiji, and he has returned with his victorious army.

He had planned to rest for the night and return to Junozawa tomorrow with his army. But neither the generals nor the soldiers were willing to sleep overnight in a place that was only thirty miles away from Junozawa, and they would rather be more tired and return to Junoze. When the team arrived at the huge and magnificent city gate of Yanyun Village, Zhang Zhongjian, Daxi Changru and other major generals who stayed behind in Juyeze all came out to greet them.

"Hard work!"

The Ju Ye Ze people led by Daxi Changru hurriedly greeted him, and his face was full of extremely sincere smiles.

"I've seen General Daxi! I've seen Zhang Da Boss! ”

Xu Shiji didn't dare to hold it up, and hurriedly dismounted and saluted Daxi Changru and Zhang Zhongjian.

Everyone said a few words, and Xu Shiji pondered for a while and asked, "The lord is still in Liyang?" ”

"In Chang'an!"

Daxi Changru smiled and said: "It's been two months since I went, and after deducting the time spent on the road, it is estimated that it will be at least half a month to Chang'an." ”

"Chang'an?!"

Xu Shiji was stunned, and then his face changed greatly: "How can the lord risk his life?" As long as Li Jiancheng does not die, the people of the Li family will never tolerate the lord! ”

Xu Shiji is Xu Shiji, and he said the root of it in one sentence.

The most intolerant of Li Xian is precisely Li Jiancheng, who seems to be the most kind and tolerant to Li Xian!
