With this loud bang, a ball of fire rose from Miyagi, like a huge red and black mushroom, slowly rising into the air. In the firelight, the palace wall slowly collapsed like sand, and huge stones splashed everywhere like raindrops. Zhang Liang was very unfortunate and was hit on the head by a huge rock the size of a basin and died on the spot. And the death was so miserable that I couldn't even distinguish the skull. The poor generation of generals didn't even have time to leave a last word, so they left the dust.

Li Shimin's luck was slightly better, and the boulder grazed past him, startling him into a cold sweat. However, that's not the end of the story. His horse was screamed like never before, and the man rose to his feet and threw him down. Before Li Shimin, who fell to the ground, could get up, he was trampled on his right leg by another frightened war horse, and his leg bone was shattered on the spot. Fortunately, his subordinates were quick and dragged him far away. At the very place where he had fallen, he threw down a large patch of masonry and piled them up like a hill. If he had taken another step in the evening, he would have been buried alive.

After a long time, the dust gradually cleared, and the resurgence was very frightening. Severed limbs and stumps were everywhere, and the air was filled with the smell of blood and sulfur, which made people gasp.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Li Shimin couldn't help but gasp and asked in a deep voice, "What happened?" ”

Both left and right shook their heads repeatedly, and no one could answer his question.

In fact, at the moment when the loud noise broke out, Li Shimin's subordinates in Miyagi still saw this scene clearly. At that time, Liu Sigen was fighting with a knife in one hand, but with the other hand, he stretched out a torch to a row of wooden barrels on the side of the city wall. Except for Liu Sigen himself, no one knew that those wooden barrels were filled with all kinds of gunpowder that had been developed by the Ministry of Industry for several years.

Since listening to Liu Ziqiu talk about various advanced technologies in modern society, Liu Sigen has been fascinated. Of course, with the current technical level of the Ministry of Industry, it is true that as Liu Ziqiu said, it is impossible for him to come into contact with such advanced technology in his life. However, Liu Sigen still developed a deep interest in gunpowder. After Liu Ziqiu left the capital, he took on the responsibility of protecting his aunt and younger siblings.

The Han Dynasty is now peaceful, and under normal circumstances, it is impossible for the imperial concubines, princes, and princesses who live in the deep palace to encounter danger. If there is real danger, unless there is a large-scale rebellion. Although Liu Sigen now acted as the emperor, according to the laws of the Han Dynasty, a large number of regular troops could only be mobilized in his name by resolution of the two-level congress. Under normal circumstances, the only army he could mobilize was the palace guards. If there is a large-scale rebellion, it will be difficult to resist it by relying on these guards alone. Therefore, Liu Sigen has already imagined various situations. If you want to support a large number of troops to help, you can only rely on the weapons of defending the city. Obviously, gunpowder was what he thought was a weapon.

However, although the Ministry of Industry of the Han Dynasty produced many gunpowders of different proportions and compositions, and the power of these gunpowders was also different, how to apply them to warfare was always unclear. Therefore, Liu Sigen transported all these gunpowder to the palace, and prepared to ponder it slowly in his leisure. Unexpectedly, Li Shimin and Zhang Liang launched a rebellion on this day, and he had not had time to find out the performance of gunpowder. Therefore, it was simply impossible to count on the use of these gunpowder to block the attack of the rebels.

Seeing that the rebels have attacked the wall, the harem can no longer be saved. Fortunately, he delayed for a while, which was enough for Hua Yun to escape into the secret cave of Xishan with several other aunts and younger siblings, and Liu Sigen finally put his mind at ease and finally completed the task assigned by his father. However, as Liu Ziqiu's son, Liu Sigen also has his own pride. He would not allow himself to be taken prisoner by the enemy, and he was not even willing to die in the chaos. Therefore, at the moment when Li Shimin and Zhang Liang were about to rush into the palace, Liu Sigen did not hesitate to light the powder keg.

The huge explosion almost leveled the palace walls, rushed to the head of the city and the rebels crowded inside and outside the palace gates, killed and wounded, and many people could not even find their corpses.

Seeing that Li Shimin couldn't answer left and right, he couldn't help but be annoyed: "What about Liu Sigen? To live to see people, to die to see corpses! ”

Finally, a few of his subordinates who were standing behind rushed over and said, "Fly to the sky." "Yes, yes, it's up to the sky." "I saw him turn into a white dragon."

"Fart!" Li Shimin finally couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth, and then let out another "ah" scream, and beads of sweat the size of soybeans oozed from his forehead.

One of his legs has been trampled off by a war horse, and he has been able to hold on until now because of a tenacious will, and after the pain is too much, he forgets the pain. At this moment, hearing that his subordinates actually said that they saw Liu Sigen turn into a white dragon, Li Shimin couldn't help but be angry, but unexpectedly, he was angry and pulled the wound. You know, the dragon has always been a symbol of the royal family, and all kinds of objects carved with dragon patterns can only be used by the emperor. Now, his subordinates actually said that Liu Sigen had turned into a white dragon, didn't that mean that Liu Sigen was the true dragon emperor? How could he tolerate such a statement?

The subordinates were suddenly silent, and no one dared to talk nonsense anymore, but everyone was shocked in their hearts. Each of them could see clearly that Liu Sigen was not bombarded into the sky by the firelight, but slowly rose into the air, and then saw a dragon-shaped white light flash, and Liu Sigen disappeared. Of course, some people think that Liu Sigen did not turn into a white dragon, but was rescued by a white dragon. This strange sight, not only they saw it, but in fact, many people in Luoyang City saw it. However, no one dares to mention this matter in front of Li Shimin now.

Such a big movement in the direction of the palace naturally alarmed the entire Luoyang City. But at this time, it was late at night, and in order to avoid accidental injuries, the troops stationed in the capital were strictly guarding their barracks, so no one rushed to the rescue. Although no one rushed to the rescue, it did not mean that they did not pay attention to the situation in the palace. In addition to the army and the common people, the delegates at the two congresses were even more nervous. Therefore, many people saw Liu Sigen ascend to the mid-hollow dragon and leave. This matter has been circulated for a long time, and finally became an unsolved case in the Han Dynasty.

At this time, the pain in Li Shimin's leg became more and more intense, and he knew that he would not last long and would faint immediately. With the last trace of sanity, Li Shimin viciously ordered: "Rush in, except for Liu Ziqiu's wife and children, kill everyone!" ”

Although these outlaws under him were shocked by the scene of Liu Sigen turning into a dragon and leaving, they knew very well in their hearts that they were standing here today, and there was no way back. Before the promulgation of the Han Dynasty, rebellion was a major crime against the nine clans. However, Liu Ziqiu doesn't like to engage in Zhulian, so they don't have to worry about their wives anymore. However, as long as it is a rebellion, it is still a heinous capital crime.

Soon, a series of near-death screams came from the scene, and it turned out to be Zhang Liang's remaining subordinates and private soldiers who made these screams. It turned out that the "everyone" in Li Shimin's mouth not only refers to those guards, palace maids and eunuchs, but also includes Zhang Liang's remnants. This is also one of the plans that Li Shimin has prepared for a long time. If Zhang Liang is not dead, then Li Shimin can continue to use his status as a general, and perhaps he can recruit some people for his own use. If Zhang Liang died, then there would be no need for his remaining subordinates to live. Kill all these people, and you can also put the charge of rebellion on Zhang Liang.

…

After giving this order, Li Shimin finally couldn't bear the severe pain in his leg and fainted. By the time he woke up again, it was already dawn. When Li Shimin opened his eyes, he saw Li Yuan, Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji all guarding his bed. Li Yuan asked with concern, "How is it, does it still hurt?" You can rest assured, my father has already sent someone to ask for a doctor, and he will definitely find ways to set up a rule to protect your legs. ”

Li Shimin nodded and asked, "Have Liu Ziqiu's wives and children been caught?" ”

Li Yuanji shook his head and said, "I searched the entire harem, but there was no trace of them. ”

Li Shimin asked again: "What about Liu Sigen?" I saw him standing on the wall, and he couldn't escape!"

Li Yuan sighed and said, "I've searched inside and outside the palace, and I haven't even seen a single cold hair. ”

In fact, they were also paying attention to the situation in the palace at that time, and they also saw the vision of Liu Sigen turning into a dragon and leaving, but they didn't want to admit it.

As he spoke, three doctors from the Tai Hospital came here with medicine boxes on their backs. According to Liu Ziqiu's regulations, doctors in Tai Hospital are not allowed to go to the hospital. However, the situation has been complicated by the events of last night, and these imperial doctors are all eating with their own mouths, and no one will joke with their lives. Today's events, everyone understands what happened. As the prime minister, Li Shimin is likely to really hold power from now on. These imperial doctors even if they don't think about themselves, they have to think about their wives and children, so they came here in violation of the laws of the Han Dynasty. Of course, according to Li Yuan's original intention, he wanted to call all the imperial doctors over. It's just that most of the imperial doctors still strictly abide by Liu Ziqiu's rules and refuse to leave the imperial hospital lightly.

Although these imperial doctors who came to the Li Mansion are not top experts, they have learned a lot of real skills in the Tai Hospital for many years. After some looks, the three imperial doctors shook their heads together.

Li Yuan's face sank, and he shouted, "Can my son's injuries still be saved?" ”

One of the imperial doctors said tremblingly: "There is salvation, but there is salvation, but I am not good at learning, but I am afraid that I will not be cured." ”

Li Yuan waved his hand and said happily: "It's good to be saved." Tell me, who can heal my son's leg? ”
