Chapter 396: How dare he
. The conflict in the East Palace was about to break out, and Li Chengqian had to admit a somewhat painful fact that all his arrangements had been understood by his father.
Father is a cautious person, and there must be a foolproof plan to dare to come to the East Palace at this time, and he is now in a situation of stubborn resistance.
Of course, it is also possible for the father to bluff and try to deceive and deter himself, he noticed something abnormal in the East Palace, or what news Princess Jinyang brought just now. Thinking about it now, Li Mingda took the sacrifice prepared by Wei Guifei is somewhat abnormal.
In any case, there is no point in doubting and speculating about anything now, as Hou Junji said, as long as the emperor is still in the East Palace, still in his own hands, there is a trump card, the situation may not be terrible, although the process is destined to be troublesome, even difficult, but the chance to win is not impossible.
It's just that it's impossible to deal with this matter in a low-key manner, and it's destined to make a big fuss, shock the world, and stir up the storm. But so what? After giving it a go, as long as you can ascend to the throne of God, you can try your best to clean up this mess.
History has always been written by the victors, and it is inevitable that the stigma will be borne today, and it will be necessary to find a way to wash it away in the future, anyway, the father has made a good start in revising the history books, and he is just learning. Anyway, it's better than sitting back and waiting to die.
There is no turning back from the bow, and there is no room for regret at this point, at most the result is the same, and you have to fight to know.
The guards in the East Palace are all Li Chengqian's cronies, and this prince may not have been very successful in recent years, but he did have some means to win over a group of cronies.
At this moment, with the instruction of the crown prince, he immediately drew his knife and surrounded him, even if the person in front of him was the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, they were fearless. Without the slightest scruples.
Seeing this situation, Li Chengqian sighed in his heart, thanks to Su Gan Chengji, it was he who trained him single-handedly, so that the attendants of the East Palace had the potential of dead soldiers, which came in handy at critical moments. But why did he reveal the secret of the East Palace in Dali Temple, so that his arrangement was discovered first, what was going on, Li Chengqian wanted to know, but there was no time at the moment, and it seemed that there was no need and meaning.
After a moment of hesitation, Du He arrived at the East Palace with the soldiers and horses of Zuotun Guard, which gave Li Chengqian confidence.
Seeing Du He, Li Shimin didn't react yet. Princess Li Mingda of Jinyang on the side first said angrily: "Brother-in-law, Sister Chengyang has only been married to you for a few days, and you have rebelled with the intention of being unfavorable to your father, do you still have a conscience?" How should you face Sister Chengyang after today? ”
Li Shimin shook his head and said: "This matter is strange, for the sake of Keming (Du Ruhui) who died untimely for the Tang Dynasty, I will marry Chengyang to you."
It's a pity that Duhe you go...... It is also I who have taught you well, and you will come to the Yellow Spring in the future. I was really ashamed of Keming. ”
Yu Gong, Du He is Du Ruhui's second son. 's father is the former prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, and it can be called a good story, and now his son has indeed become a rebellious person.
Yu privately, he Du He married Princess Chengyang, who was the concubine of the Tang Dynasty and the son-in-law of Li Shimin. Now he raised the butcher's knife to his father-in-law, and from any point of view, he was a little rebellious.
But Du He disagreed: "Your Majesty, you favor the King of Wei too much, so that the prince fights and does not respect the prince." The country is shaken. This move is also for the sake of the country, to maintain the stability of our Tang Dynasty, if my father is alive, I will definitely persuade you, but unfortunately we juniors are soft-spoken.
So in desperation, I can only use this action, presumably my father will understand it when he knows it in the spirit of heaven, and if there is any unfilial piety, please forgive your majesty. ”
"Brother-in-law, Sister Chengyang won't forgive you!" Princess Li Mingda of Jinyang is a loyal little girl, and she has always had a good relationship with Princess Chengyang, the sister-in-law of a fellow mother, and she is at the age of the beginning of love, and she deeply regrets and disgusts Du He's betrayal of her feelings.
At this time, she said this in the hope that Du He would be able to turn back to the shore, so that her sister Princess Chengyang would not be heartbroken in the end. On the other hand, it probably also means delaying time, and he knows very well that his father seems to be calm and calm now, but he is actually bluffing. If you can delay for a while, it is naturally best to come to the rescue for Brother Yao's time.
After waiting for a long time, Brother Xiaoyao arrived at the Zuowuwei military camp and mobilized his troops and horses? After finishing speaking, Li Mingda subconsciously glanced beyond the high walls of the East Palace.
Du He was completely unimpressed by his sister-in-law's persuasion, shook his head and said: "If it happens today, Chengyang is the sister of His Royal Highness the Prince, and she will still be the noble eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty, and she must accept this fact."
If I fail, I will definitely die, but Chengyang doesn't know anything, she is the princess of the Tang Dynasty, so naturally she will not be implicated by me, and she will marry again in the future. ”
Hearing this, Li Mingda had nothing to say, these people obviously had a clear understanding of the consequences of the matter, and even had already made plans and arrangements. Now, such a move is obviously to insist on going its own way to the end.
Seeing this, Hou Junji said: "Okay, if it's late, there will be changes, don't let them delay any longer, Your Majesty, I'm sorry." ”
Li Chengqian bowed to Li Shimin, and then waved his hand violently, and the dead man in the East Palace immediately pounced on Li Shimin.
Li Shimin held his daughter Princess Jinyang in his arms, showing his fatherly feelings, if the old eunuch who entered the old monk finally moved, although there were only a few people around Li Shimin, they were all among the best imperial guards, and they were also people who were willing to serve His Majesty the Emperor desperately.
In the process of tearing their faces between the emperor and the crown prince before, they already knew what they were going to face next, unlike Li Mingda, the princess of Jinyang, they didn't know that reinforcements would come. But they all have a belief in their hearts, that is, they will desperately protect His Majesty the Emperor.
The swords of the East Palace roared together, and the rebellion finally completely evolved into a fact, and it rose to the level of killing the king and killing the father.
……
Li Tai, the king of Wei, soon rushed to the Taiji Palace, his status was noble, and he was deeply favored by Li Shimin, so the ban on entering and leaving the palace has always been unhindered. When entering the political hall, several worried prime ministers were trying to find a way to stabilize the situation, and the news of the East Palace Incident was rumored, and the whole Chang'an did not know what the chaos would be.
Especially at this time, they received the news of the transfer of Zuo Wuwei's army, and then they looked at each other in surprise. And Li Tai, who entered the door, was also surprised: "Didn't my father order Cheng Zhijie to dispatch?" ”
It's about time. Li Tai did not hide the fact that he was well-informed, which in itself was nothing. But the news he just heard made him break out in a cold sweat, he thought that Zuo Wuwei's army was mobilized by the order of his father, but when he entered the political hall, he realized that his father had entered the East Palace without knowing it, and now it was really a blessing and a curse.
Moreover, the transfer of Zuo Wuwei's army has nothing to do with his father. The most important thing is that the prime ministers of the government hall don't know about it, which is terrible.
Originally, I thought that at a critical moment, the prime ministers of the political hall would join forces and mobilize some of the soldiers and horses of the sixteen guards. However, Fang Xuanling and his uncle eldest grandson Wuji looked at each other, and Cen Wenwen was even more sure that Zhongshu Province had never issued such a will.
Then why did Cheng Zhijie's soldiers and horses move? Could it be that he took refuge in the East Palace? Thinking of this, a very bad premonition appeared in everyone's hearts, if this is the case, the consequences are really unimaginable.
When Zuo Tun Wei and Zuo Wu Guards and Horses all participated in the rebellion, they were all used by the East Palace. Who else can stop them? They knew that Hou Junji had participated in the rebellion, but Cheng Zhijie ...... The old general of Wagang, the emperor's most trusted general, is also the family of the royal family's sons and daughters, and he is ......
If you think about it carefully, you can also understand it, is it dangerous to seek wealth? It is not surprising that something extraordinary is done for the sake of family and personal glory. There are so many such examples among royals and nobles that there is really nothing that cannot be understood.
But what happens next?
Fang Xuanling was a little panicked. Cen Wenwen was silent, and his face was also melancholy. But not very alarmed. He has never been overly biased towards a certain prince, and with the backing of the southern scholars, even if Li Chengqian ascends the throne, he will not do anything to him, and maybe he will reuse it as before.
is the eldest grandson Wuji, and his mood at this moment is the most complicated. The two men in the East Palace were too close to him. In the end, no matter what the result is, it seems that he will have little impact, the rebellion will be quelled, and he will still be the uncle of the country, if Li Chengqian's rebellion fails. He is still the uncle of the country, and his nephew has to rely on his support.
However, at this moment, he is not doing anything, it is obviously not possible to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and neither will these many people in the political hall. His behavior at the moment was very important, and he glanced at his other nephew, Li Tai, who was looking at him intentionally or unintentionally, and knew it in his heart.
The eldest grandson Wuji knows very well what this nephew is here for at this moment, and no matter what the result of the change in the East Palace, it seems that he has to change his support.
Is it this nephew?
Seeing Li Tai's clever look, Eldest Sun Wuji couldn't help but squint his eyes, no one knew what he was thinking.
And Li Tai on the side was actually full of worry at the moment, because today's actions were not as perfect as he imagined, where did he think that under his nervous persecution, that seemingly cowardly brother would tear his face and make a desperate bet.
Isn't it a bit self-defeating? It was he who single-handedly solved the current situation a long time ago, and did not put Li Chengqian to death, but put his father in danger.
What should I do if something really goes wrong? What ethical and family issues are no longer in the scope of discussion at the moment, he just cares whether the result will be beneficial to him.
My father may be in danger at any time, so there is nothing wrong with this, at this time, I only need to encircle the prime ministers in the political hall, and be the orthodox identity of this royal family, maybe I can also get a blessing in disguise.
Especially the eldest grandson Wuji, the uncle of the middle, does he have any other choice? Fortunately, Liu Xuan reminded that he had already made a move on the Jin Palace. As soon as Li Zhi dies again, he will be the only nephew of the eldest grandson's family.
When the time comes, the eldest grandson Wuji will not lead the audience and nobles to support him, will he wait for Li Ke, the king of Wu in Songzhou, to come back and compete for the throne?
There's nothing wrong with that!
When Li Taizheng's mind was spinning, someone from Dali Temple came to report that Xie Yi, the prince of Huaiyang County, went to pick up the prisoner Su Gan Chengji.
Knowing this time, everyone reacted, and ignored another important person in this matter for a long time - Xie Yi.
According to Sun Fujia, the first person to notice that Li Chengqian was going to rebel was Xie Yi, and he went to find a way. A resourceful teenager might really be able to think of a solution.
The people of Dali Temple said that Xie Yi had confessed that Zuo Wuwei's army had gone to quell Zuo Tunwei's rebellion, and he himself had already gone to the East Palace to rescue him.
What's going on? Does the transfer of Zuo Wuwei's army have anything to do with Xie Yi? Although Xie Yi and Cheng Zhijie have some friendships, they know about this matter. But how could Cheng Zhijie mobilize troops and horses because of this, even if Xie Yi brought the news of the rebellion in the East Palace, how could Cheng Zhijie easily believe it and send troops rashly?
It's unreasonable! Could it be that Xie Yi also participated in the rebellion, but he and Donggong have never been on good terms, and even became inseparable, how could it be?
Just when everyone couldn't understand, Cen Wenwen, who had been silent on the side, suddenly smiled: "Okay, good, good Xie Yi, Cheng Zhijie is going to rescue the driver, maybe Your Majesty can come back safely." ”
"Cen Shilang, what do you say?" Sun Fujia was also a little puzzled, he was with Xie Yi at that time, how Xie Yi invited Cheng Zhijie in such a short period of time is really confusing.
Cen Wenwen's expression relaxed slightly, and even had a faint smile and said: "Shicai Chengqing Hall came to report that Princess Jinyang is also gone, it is said that she went to the East Palace with sacrifices, I was still strange at the time, but now I understand everything."
As expected, the reason why Cheng Zhijie dispatched troops and horses should have seen His Majesty's edict......"
"But Your Majesty has never written an edict in the East Palace, and even if he does, it may not be passed on......" Sun Fujia was completely puzzled by this.
Cen Wenwen shook his head and said: "You don't know, that edict should be from the handwriting of Princess Jinyang, Her Royal Highness the princess is good at flying white body, and the handwriting is very similar to Your Majesty, Xiao Yu and I have both admitted our mistakes, not to mention outsiders."
It happened to be in the Chengqing Palace, presumably His Majesty did not carry the heirloom jade seal when he left, Princess Jinyang only needs to imitate His Majesty's handwriting to write an edict, Cheng Zhijie will believe it when he sees it. ”
Everyone couldn't help but be stunned when they heard it, was it the handiwork of Princess Li Mingda of Jinyang, a teenage girl? The handwriting must be her thanks, yes, she does have this ability, and the minister has heard of it.
But can she have the heart and the courage? Obviously, the mastermind of this matter is not Princess Jinyang, but someone else. As for who, the answer seems clear.
When Sun Fujia left the Chengqing Palace, there were only two people, Princess Jinyang and Xie Yi, and the Duke of Huaiyang County had always been resourceful, so it was not surprising that he had this idea.
It's just that it's an edict, it's a false decree, and he really dares?.
