Chapter 1151: Plan Ahead
The prince walked in the middle, there was a soldier in front of him to open the way, behind him were two wounded soldiers, and there was another soldier on the side of Zuihou, Li Chengquan quietly covered it, and suddenly covered the soldier's mouth, and the knife swiped hard at his throat, blood gushed out like a fountain, and felt that he had completely lost the strength to struggle, Li Chengquan pushed him into the bushes and continued to tiptoe up.
Zhao Sishen, the captain of Guoyi, arrived with a large group of men and horses, and Yang Siqiao, who was eager for meritorious service, ordered him to lead the rangers to guard all the main roads under the mountain, and personally led the troops up the mountain to search, Yang Fan also brought his own people, and waved his knife to open up the road to the mountain to search.
The prince moved his subordinates, almost killed him, and the Xuanwu men turned against the prince because of his words, resulting in the defeat of the prince's army, this Liangzi has been settled, if the prince turns the tables, he has absolutely no good fruit to eat, and he naturally understands the simple truth of cutting grass and eradicating roots.
Yang Fan went all the way up the mountain, and was looking for a room, when suddenly a soldier shouted: "General, there are cut branches and grass here." ”
Yang Fan hurriedly leaned over to take a look, and for a while he couldn't be sure if it was left by other mountain-searching teams, so he said, "Catch up and take a look." ”
The group chased to an open area, there was no obvious sign, lost the trace of tracking the target, and was trying to find a direction to continue the search, when suddenly there was a stir in the bushes, it seemed that someone or a big beast was approaching, Ren Wei and other guards immediately held knives on guard.
A point from the bushes, out of which a person came out, embarrassed, and carrying a bloody human head in his hand, when he saw Yang Fan and others, that person was startled at first, and then saw Yang Fan's appearance clearly, and couldn't help but shout with joy: "General Yang, the last general Li Chengquan, obey the holy oracle anyway!" ”
The man who came out of the bushes was none other than Li Chengjing, and he hurriedly dropped his knife. Take two steps forward, fall to your knees, and hold a bloody human head aloft. Yang Fan couldn't help but be shocked when he looked at the human head, only to see that the human head was full of anger, and the look of grief and shock still hung on his face, it was the crown prince Li Chengqing.
Yang Fan lost his voice and said, "Prince? ”
Li Chengquan nodded hurriedly: "It is the crown prince, the general, and the last general who was inspired by the Son of Heaven and resolutely went anyway." Killed a lot of traitors, you see, the general, the last general was wounded for this. ”
Yang Fan hesitated for a moment, and said slowly: "You get up, this official will take you to see the saint." ”
Lee was ecstatic. Hurriedly stood up, nodded and said, "General Xie." The kindness of the Great General. The last general will not forget ......"
Li Chengquan was saying compliments, Ren Wei suddenly raised the knife in his hand, and the cold light flashed, rolling towards Li Chengkuang's neck.
Although Li Chengquan was reluctant to use the crown prince's head as a name to defect to the emperor again, he felt that what Mr. Ding said was very reasonable, and the Son of Heaven said in public, "Anyway, the past is not to blame." The secret of his conspiracy will not be known, so that he will not be regarded as the main culprit and should be forgiven.
Second, he killed the prince today. is to cut off all retreats, if there are still people who try to be unfavorable to the Son of Heaven, they will never recruit him, and he has no second way out except to be a lackey for Li Xian. If someone can achieve great things, in order to deny that Li Xian will inevitably rehabilitate the prince, once the prince is rehabilitated, he still has to die, so he not only has to be a lackey for the Son of Heaven, but can only be a loyal dog who is determined to the ground, after all, others don't know that he has long been the inner circle of the Lu family.
Therefore, after he is spared from death, the possibility of being reused by Li Xian is indeed very high, and it is no secret that Li Xian lacks available people. So after he killed the prince, he came to vote with his head, and he didn't have any vigilance at all.
As soon as Ren Wei's blade rolled, Li Chengguan's head was cut down flatly, rolled out more than a zhang away, fell to the ground with a bang, and rolled into the grass with a grunt. The moment Ren Wei took out the knife, Yang Fan was also shocked, and his hand subconsciously pressed the handle of the knife, and when Li Chengguan's head hit the ground, Yang Fan's five fingers slowly loosened.
Ren Wei killed Li Chengguo, then turned around and knelt down on one knee towards Yang Fan.
Yang Fan asked in a deep voice, "What are you doing here?" ”
Ren Wei said: "General, this credit, why should you give it to Li Chengqing, a repeated villain?" ”
Yang Fan's expression did not move: "Oh? ”
Ren Wei raised his head, his eyes were a little hot: "General, from Emperor Zetian to today, generals have been reused, but they are not wary of generals. Now is an opportunity to go one step further and be regarded as a confidant by the Son of Heaven, how can the general miss it? ”
Ren Wei took two steps on his knees, lowered his voice and said: "For more than a year, my Xianzong and Yinzong have been fighting openly and secretly, and both sides have suffered great injuries. The foundation of the Hidden Sect in the rivers and lakes is deeper than ours, and if the sect master wants to suppress the Hidden Sect, he can only hold greater power in the court. Don't miss the opportunity, lose it again! ”
Yang Fan glanced at him deeply, and said in a deep voice, "Is this your idea, or is it the idea of my elders of the Sect of Manifest Sect?" ”
Ren Wei lowered his head and was silent, Yang Fan was silent for a moment, turned around and left.
Ren Wei hurriedly said: "General! ”
As soon as he saw that Yang Fan didn't look back, Ren Wei got up and chased after him, and gestured to the other guards, signaling them to pick up the heads of Li Chengquan and the prince.

"Good! Good! Thinking about it, he hung his head under the noon gate, so that all officials could see it when they came and went. Three days later, take it to the Liang Wang's spirit to pay respects! ”
Li Xian saw that the human head was indeed his son, so he asked someone to take it away with confidence. Li Chongjun broke into the palace to kill his mother, scared him to death, and the relationship between father and son was diluted, and when he saw the head of his own son, he had no compassion, and viciously ordered it to be hung at the noon gate, and then sacrificed in front of the spirit of King Liang.
Li Xian glanced at Yang Fan and said with a smile: "Erlang, you have made a great contribution, how do you want me to reward you?" ”
Yang Fan hugged his fists and said, "Bixia misunderstood, prince...... Not died at the hands of Wechen. ”
Li Xian raised his eyebrows and said strangely: "Oh? You didn't kill the prince? ”
Yang Fan said: "No, the one who killed the prince is Li Chengquan beside the prince." Li Chengguo killed the crown prince in an attempt to exonerate him. It's just that he was sneaky in the forest, and the minister's subordinates searched in the forest, mistakenly thinking that he was going to ambush Weichen, and killed him with a decisive shot. ”
"Ahh I see......"
Li Xian's face was a little ugly, and he looked at Yang Fan deeply. Said: "Even so, it is also indispensable. What's more, you still have the skill of saving the driver under the Xuanwu Gate. Well, you should step back first, and I will reward you for your merits as appropriate. ”
"Xie Bixia!"
Yang Fan took three steps back, turned around and walked out of the main hall.
Li Xian looked at his back, and his face gradually became gloomy. Behind the screen, Empress Wei and Princess An Le walked out. Since the accident in the martial arts family, An Le has been living in the palace for the past few days, and has never gone back to worship her father-in-law and husband. Now that the rest of the party has not been cleaned, how dare she take that risk.
Empress Wei walked up to Li Xian and glanced out following his gaze, Li Xian muttered: "It was Li Chengguo who killed the prince, but only the people around him know about this matter." If he doesn't say it. Who knows the truth? He was unmoved. Hey! Hey! ”
Wei Hou said: "Why did Yang Fan refuse to accept the credit? It's because I'm worried that someone will counterattack one day. Or don't you want to follow you with all your heart? ”
Li Xian's face became even more gloomy.
Princess An Le said coquettishly: "Daddy and Auntie, you are thinking too much. If Yang Fan had a bad intention, then why did he take the risk of boarding the Xuanwu Gate to escort him? ”
Wei Hou said: "You didn't listen to him, and he was also kept in the dark?" If he hadn't befriended the Dugu clan, Dugu didn't dare to offend the family easily, so he killed him at that time. ”
Princess An Le said, "So what? From escorting Daddy out of the house. and then to the Shenlong coup to support Daddy's ascension to the throne, until this time he broke into the palace to save the driver and turned the tide, this person, loyalty has nothing to say. is too cautious and cautious, always thinking that he can meet the source everywhere, so he refuses to go all the way to the dark. ”
Li Xian said with a calm face: "I am the Son of Heaven, he is not loyal to me, where do you want to meet the source?" Is there the king? Hum! This is the greatest infidelity! ”
Empress Wei reminded: "He has a lot of merit, do you want to confirm your reputation for being mean and unkind?" ”
Princess An Le said with a smile: "Of course you have to be rewarded for your merits, Zhang Cambodia and them, didn't Daddy just seal the throne with indignation?" yes, Daddy. ”
Li Xian turned his anger into joy, and said with a smile: "It's still my baby daughter who is smart." ”
Princess An Le grinned, her eyes rippling, and she didn't know what to think.

Xiaoman heard that Lang Jun had returned home, so he hurriedly welcomed him out of the inner house, but he heard from the housekeeper that as soon as Lang Jun came back, he called Gu Da to the study to discuss matters.
Xiaoman turned around the flower hall, sat on the edge of the Luohan bed, sighed softly, and Anu, who was making clothes for the child on the Luohan bed, glanced at her and said, "Something on your mind?" ”
Xiao Man shook his head and said, "The court is troublesome, and he is always worried about Lang Jun, which is really worrying." ”
Anu bit the thread and said, "Don't worry, he is strong in martial arts, and he has heavy soldiers, what can happen." ”
Xiao Man said: "But it may not be, what's the use of being strong in martial arts?" I heard that there were also generals under him who participated in the mutiny, and they also used medicine and numbing to overturn him, and almost killed him with a knife, which is impossible to prevent at all. Besides, with heavy troops, Li Duozuo, Li Qianli, and Sha Zha Zhongyi, which one is not holding heavy troops? The crockpot is difficult to break from the wellhead, and the general will inevitably ......, how can I not worry? ”
Anu listened, and the good-looking Dai Mei also raised slightly, was silent for a long time, and said faintly: "Men, you always have to work hard." What can we women do? Could it be impossible to persuade Lang Jun to abandon his official position and go into hiding, and be a carefree farmer? ”
Xiaoman said: "You have to keep your worries in your heart, but don't let him see it." It's not easy for him anymore, don't let him worry about his family anymore. ”
Anu nodded gently: "People can save it." ”
In the study, when Gu Da heard what Yang Fan said, his face changed color, and he lost his voice: "What? The suzerain is saying......"
Yang Fan nodded with a gloomy face: "I'm not afraid of ten thousand, I'm afraid of just in case." I'm just taking precautions, just keep it in mind, and don't say anything. ”
Gu Da hurriedly arched his hand and said, "My subordinates understand!" ”
