Chapter 397: A Critical Moment

In the political hall, the prime ministers, Li Tai, the king of Wei, Sun Fujia and others were all in shock, forging the emperor's holy decree and mobilizing troops and horses was an unforgivable capital crime.

But Xie Yizhen did just that!

But if you think about it carefully, Xie Yi's bold and reckless move seems to be reasonable, and when this is critical, it is reasonable to be flexible and take extraordinary measures.

From the perspective of the overall situation, as long as he saves His Majesty the Emperor and keeps the peace and stability of the Tang Dynasty, it is not a crime, but a contribution to the country.

Of course, in the end, whether it is about rewarding meritorious deeds or harshly questioning the guilt depends on the mood of His Majesty the Emperor.

Rescuing the driver is indeed a great merit, but the false transmission of the holy decree and the mobilization of soldiers and horses are the most taboo things for the emperor, and no one can say what the result of Xie Yi will end up with.

However, the prime ministers all have the same feeling, that is, Xie Yi finally ...... At least the culpability is not very serious, after all, Princess Jinyang was also involved in this matter, if you want to ask Xie Yi for sinning, then what should the princess do? His Majesty the Emperor will not ask his favorite daughter about it, right?

Moreover, Xie Yi can be regarded as loyal, mobilizing soldiers and horses to escort them, and Princess Jinyang is even more to send a message to the emperor, so she does not hesitate to risk entering the East Palace. This original intention is to protect, and if you still want to ask for the guilt, it may be a little unreasonable.

The most likely outcome should be to offset the merits and demerits, and the worst is nothing more than that, but from now on, Xie Yi's status in the eyes of His Majesty the Emperor will not be the same. After all, he is still young, and he has to look back, and the future can indeed only be described in four words.

At the same time, there is another person whose future is also worth looking forward to, that is, Li Zhi, the king of Jin.

When the eldest grandson Wuji saw this situation, he was not very optimistic about the second nephew Li Tai in front of him, and he finally felt that this too speculative nephew might be planted somewhere. Compared with. is the third nephew Li Zhi in the Hibiscus Garden, who has a more pure nature and a nephew who is both civil and military.

Moreover, the eldest grandson Wuji inexplicably had a feeling that in the matter of Li Chengqian's rebellion, Xie Yi was able to anticipate the opportunity, and was the first to detect the problem and react. Its insight even surpasses that of the prime ministers of the political hall and many families in Chang'an. Its ability can be said to be incredible.

The eldest grandson Wuji felt that there was reason to believe that Xie Yi might have grasped some information that others did not know, and made corresponding arrangements. This young man has always been magical, and it is not surprising that he has something extraordinary, Xie Yi has been staying in the Jin Palace, and he has been loyal to Li Zhi, the king of Jin, and has a heart to cultivate.

These things seem to be within the bounds, but for a character like Xie Yi, it must not be considered so simply. When he does it with his heart and very seriously. Then the thing must be worth doing, in other words, profitable. What is the intention of a prince?

In particular, Xie Yi's relationship with the East Palace and the Wei Wangfu is not very good, whether it is for self-preservation and future prospects, it seems that he should do something. To some extent, it can even be said that Li Zhi is a card in Xie Yi's hand, a trump card, and this card is also attractive to himself.

Cen Wenwen on the side is also a shrewd person. He saw all these things, but he didn't say anything. Just like it did at the beginning. If this situation develops, it is not necessarily a bad thing for himself and the people behind him, this young man is really good, it seems that he really didn't look at the wrong person at the beginning, he didn't see the wrong person......

The most uncomfortable person in my heart should be Li Tai, the king of Wei, Xie Yi suddenly stood out like this. It is equivalent to disrupting his own deployment all of a sudden, and to some extent, stealing his own limelight.

Li Tai's vigilance should be relatively high, he has never regarded Xie Yi as a separate individual, but thinks that he is completely one with the Jin Wangfu behind him. Xie Yi is the chief of the Jin Dynasty, and to a large extent, his actions represent the King of Jin. If Xie Yi's escort work today is implemented, it will be equivalent to falling to the Jin Palace, and to another younger brother Li Zhi.

And what are you sitting on?

Now it is suitable for the prime ministers of the political hall to be together, but there is no substantive escort action, and there is no trace of any clues, it can be said that Yu Guo has no merit, and Yu Father has no filial piety. And there is also a bomb behind this, an unstable factor.

You must know that the reason why Su Gan Chengji confessed, as well as the appearance of Feng Xiaoyue, and the attack on Huayin, are actually related to themselves. If these things are leaked to a certain extent, they will be doomed, Li Tai pondered, thought about it before and after, and it seemed that there was nothing missing.

Only then did he put his mind at ease for the time being, but he was still vaguely uneasy in his heart, fortunately, he was reminded by Liu Xuan before going out today, and he had already sent someone to attack Li Zhi.

At this moment, Li Tai naturally hopes that this matter can be successful, and hopes that there will be some accidents in the East Palace, if something happens to the father and the crown prince and the king of Jin on the same day, then who will you support in addition to yourself?

It's just that the situation in the East Palace can meet your expectations? Li Tai looked up at the East Palace, silent, the gaze in his heart was very deep and cold.

……

In the East Palace, at this moment, it is already a sword and a sword.

Li Chengqian commanded his dead soldiers to raise butcher knives against Li Shimin and Li Mingda, but the old eunuch was still fearless, and guarded the emperor with countless guards.

The imperial guards are all first-class good hands in the Yulin Guard, and it is not easy for the East Palace guards to succeed immediately, so it is a little difficult to kill them.

However, the overall situation was naturally that the dead soldiers in the East Palace had the upper hand, so much so that Li Shimin was forced to grab a weapon and do it himself.

In the end, the emperor who immediately fought the world, although these are a little rusty, but at present, under such circumstances, there are still some self-protection actions. At least it can guard against the weapons that actually attack him and his daughter, but it is unknown how long it can support it.

But fortunately, when they learned that Li Shimin was on guard, and that the defenders of the political hall and Chang'an might have received the news, the guards of the East Palace did not dare to kill them immediately.

At this time, it is not a good thing for the East Palace to ask for Li Shimin's life, so it will be a solid crime of killing the monarch and killing the father, and it will be easy for outsiders to be killed by outsiders at that time. Especially the sinister younger brother Li Tai used the excuse of avenging his father and entangled soldiers and horses to enter the palace.

On the contrary, if you don't kill the emperor, but just control it in your hands, will you still have a chance to blackmail the Son of Heaven to order the princes? When the time comes, an edict will be issued in the name of the emperor, and then bargain with other ministers, generals, and families in the world. I don't know that there is no chance of winning.

And with the emperor in hand, Li Tai must have scruples no matter what he does, and he is untenable in etiquette. Even if he wanted to make any moves, he didn't dare to force it, and no one could afford to kill his father.

With such concerns, Li Chengqian could not use weapons such as bows and crossbows, and when the dead soldiers attacked, they had to be careful not to hurt His Majesty the Emperor. In this way, the difficulty is naturally much higher. It will take some time to completely control the situation.

However, Li Mingda, the princess of Jinyang, has no scruples, although Li Chengqian said before that he could spare his sister's life, but it was only a lot of talk. After all, Li Mingda has seen all this today and knows a lot about the inside story, if she is allowed to survive, what will she do if she is allowed to tell what she has seen and heard in the East Palace today?

Everything today is a first-class secret, and it must not be known to outsiders, so how could Li Chengqian let himself be the most incriminated. What about the most direct witnesses who left alive? Even if this person is his own sister, he dares to kill his father and the king. Do you still care about a sister?

What's more, Li Chengqian knows very well that Princess Li Mingda of Jinyang is a very strong girl, and he will definitely not forgive himself after today, and he will definitely create too much trouble for himself from now on. She is too young, still in the most emotional years, since she was raised by her father and the emperor himself, she has the deepest feelings for the emperor. It will not be tempted by those interests, and it will not be clear about the "truth". Rather than that, it's better to cook it earlier.

So when Li Chengqian made a hint, the dead soldiers in the East Palace no longer had any concerns about Princess Jinyang, and Yu Linwei's imperial guards cared most about the emperor's safety. Especially in times of tension like these. Therefore, it was inevitable that Princess Jinyang would be a little neglected, so that the dead man of the East Palace handed Li Mingda a fatal sword.

When he saw this situation, the old eunuch's throat tightened, although he had already performed advanced martial arts that were never revealed in front of people, but he was still delayed by the dead soldiers of the East Palace, and it was too late to save him.

At this moment, his heart was full of panic and sadness, and he knew very well that His Majesty the Emperor loved this daughter very much. If Princess Jinyang had three longs and two shorts today, even if Her Majesty the Emperor protected her peace, I am afraid it would be difficult to explain afterwards. I have to say that this situation is really a bit embarrassing.

When Li Shimin looked back and saw such a thrilling scene, he also looked nervous, and there was some panic and sadness in his eyes, and he no longer had the stability and composure that His Majesty the Emperor should have. After all, it was his favorite daughter who was in danger, and it was his own son who was in danger.

The son wants to kill his daughter, fratricidal, or in front of his father, there is no doubt that this is the most unbearable human tragedy in the world.

Li Shimin tried his best to save his daughter, but his movements were obviously a little slow, if it was twenty years ago, when he was young and strong, and had the most experience on the battlefield, there might be a way. But now, after many years of pampering in the palace, there is no such ability, and to some extent, I can only watch such a tragedy happen.

Li Mingda, the princess of Jinyang, was relatively a little unconscious, and when she noticed that a sword was stabbing towards her, she herself was completely unconscious to dodge. Maybe it's because I'm stupid, but in this case, it's completely impossible to dodge even if you want to.

How could she, a panicked little girl, dodge the sword of the well-trained and martial arts Donggong Dead Warrior? Are you going to die? In an instant, the young princess of Jinyang, Li Mingda, had such a terrible thought in her heart.

Death, she never thought about it, let alone any mental preparation, at this moment, there was only panic, and many infinitely complex thoughts in her heart.

At this critical juncture, the old eunuch was nervous, and when Li Shimin was about to shout, when Li Mingda, the princess of Jinyang, had already lost her face, they suddenly saw an arrow suddenly fly over at a very fast speed, blocking the deadly sword of the dead man in the East Palace first.

Then another arrow flew over and shot at the back of the dead man of the East Palace who had sneaked up, and in an instant, the danger seemed to be suddenly lifted.

Li Shimin didn't have time to surprise, Li Ji rushed forward to protect his daughter by his side, but the attack of the dead man in the East Palace was too tight, and he had no chance to move at all.

However, he saw hope, and the tension of the whole person was much lighter, and the old eunuch was also much more relaxed after seeing the situation, and the movements in his hands were even faster.

He didn't make a move easily, and since he had already made a move today, he would kill from afar, so that they could have a good look at Yu Linwei's strength. It also lets many rebels in the world know that rebellion requires a price, and it is very difficult to threaten to murder His Majesty the Emperor, so that they can retreat.

After Li Chengqian and Hou Junji saw the sudden change in the situation, their faces changed instantly, and they could see who appeared most clearly.

One by one, figures suddenly crossed the high wall of the East Palace, appeared in front of His Majesty the Emperor, and joined the battle group. These people are all first-class masters, and their movements in their hands are very agile, and they will protect them in front of His Majesty the Emperor as soon as they enter the East Palace.

Princess Jinyang, who was originally the only one exposed, was also protected and closely protected, and the sudden entry into the battle of these also greatly hindered the attack of the dead soldiers of the East Palace.

What could have been done right away suddenly became a lot of suffering, and there was a great possibility of failure. Originally, Li Chengqian wanted to mobilize the soldiers and horses of Zuotun Guard to support him recently, but he couldn't get to Duhe to walk out of the courtyard of the East Palace, and only heard shouts of killing sound outside.

Immediately after that, the sound of swords and kedah and the shouts of killing turned out to be louder, and the situation became more and more dangerous, and it was obvious that there was a large army of soldiers and horses killing outside, and they must have come to escort them.

At this time, Li Chengqian, Hou Junji, Du He and others had already understood what was going on. It is clear that their rebellion has failed, and they have encountered the greatest challenges and obstacles.

Failure seems to have become an inevitable fact, and the source of all this seems to be the person standing in front of them, yes, they saw Xie Yi appear in front of Princess Jinyang. (To be continued.) )
