A moment.

The eldest grandson, Shunde, was leading the soldiers to patrol the streets, when he saw a group of dark shadows approaching in front of him.

He immediately shouted, "Stop, who's who?" ”

The shadow paused, then stepped out of the darkness and into the light.

"King Lujiang?"

The eldest grandson Shunde was very surprised when he saw Li Jin: "The curfew is not over, and the king of Lujiang is staying on the street, but there is a warrant from His Majesty." ”

Li Ying smiled: "Of course...... No. ”

With a smile, Li Ying gestured to the people behind him.

The people behind him immediately rushed forward, surrounded Changsun Shunde and the others, and then attacked Changsun Shunde and the others without saying a word.

The eldest grandson, Shunde, hurriedly accepted the invitation and asked loudly: "What does King Lujiang mean by this?"

"It's a big sin to stay during the curfew, and you still do it to the soldiers of the patrol battalion, do you know what you're doing?"

Li Ying stood outside the crowd and looked at Changsun Shunde leisurely, with a contemptuous expression: "I know very well what I'm doing, don't worry about General Changsun, you still have to worry about yourself." ”

"You ......" The eldest grandson Shunde was extremely angry, and his movements in his hands became faster and faster.

However, Li Jin's people were outnumbered, and the eldest grandson Shunde and his people were soon knocked unconscious.

"Master, what to do with these people?"

Li Ying glanced at the eldest grandson Shunde who was lying on the ground and said, "Lock them up first." ”

"Yes."

Leaving a few people to clean up the aftermath, Li Ying took the others to the city gate.

Along the way, when he met the people of the patrol battalion, Li Ying took out the token he searched from the eldest grandson Shunde, and when the people of the patrol battalion saw it, they immediately respectfully got out of the way.

Soon, Li Ying came to Chunming Gate.

Chunming Gate is in the east of Chang'an City, to the north, and just north of Chunming Gate is Tonghua Gate.

"Stop, the gates are heavy, don't come near."

When the soldiers guarding the gate saw someone approaching, they immediately stopped them, but they did not stop.

So, the soldiers defending the city immediately stepped forward to stop it.

"King Lujiang? What are you doing at the gates? The soldiers defending the city reminded Li Ying again: "King Lujiang, it's not yet time to open the city gate." ”

Li Ying calmly took out the token given by Li Yuanji: "Go out of the city on the order of the king of Qi to do business, and open the city gate quickly." ”

At this time, the general guarding the city came over and said to Li Jin: "Without Your Majesty's warrant, you can't open the city gate in advance, even if it's an order from the King of Qi." ”

"Look closely." Li Ying shook the token in his hand.

Hearing this, the general defending the city held the lantern next to the token and looked at it carefully.

This token was given by Li Yuan to his concubine, and in case of emergency, he could act randomly without consulting the emperor.

After seeing it clearly, his attitude immediately became respectful, and then he ordered the soldiers: "Open the gates." ”

Li Ying put away the token, and a faint hint of pride flashed in his eyes.

Since Li Yuan gave him the title, he has gone out to fight several times, but he has suffered defeat, and every time Li Yuan will reprimand him fiercely, making him unable to raise his head in front of the clans.

Now, the crown prince has given him a chance, as long as he does this, he will be able to raise his eyebrows, and then he will not have to do this Jing Zhaoyin, who offends people everywhere.

Thinking of this, Li Ying touched the token, and the prince handed over such an important token to him, which was enough to show the importance he had.

Today, he is the greatest hero......

Looking at the open city gate, Li Ying felt that it was his gate to the pinnacle of power, and his eyes couldn't help but become obsessed.

Seeing that he was not moving, the general guarding the city reminded him loudly: "King Lujiang, the city gate has been opened. ”

Li Ying came back to his senses, looked at the general who was defending the city and smiled, and at the same time raised his hand and made a gesture of "action".

The men behind him immediately pounced on the soldiers defending the city.

"What are you doing......

Before the words of the general defending the city were finished, the sound of horses' hooves sounded in his ears.

Startled, he looked back, only to see heavily armed cavalry passing through the city gates.

"Ah......h

Screams rang out one after another.

Soon, all the defenders of the city fell in pools of blood.

"King Lujiang, don't come unharmed." Li Zhian jumped off the horse and hugged his fist at Li Ying.

Li Ying politely replied: "General Li, don't come unharmed." ”

Li Zhi'an, who was originally the prince Qianniu, is now guarding Jizhou and is the prince's descendant.

A few days ago, he received a secret order from Li Jiancheng to lead the army to infiltrate Chang'an.

"It's getting late, General Li, please come with me."

After Li Zhi'an's army entered the city, Li Ying ordered people to guard the Chunming Gate, and he led Li Zhi'an to the palace.

At the same time, an army also came in from Tonghuamen.

......

Yin Zheng, Xuanwu Gate.

Seeing someone approaching, Chang He stepped forward to stop someone, but found that it was Wei Qingjian and Xie Shufang who came.

Xie Shufang appeared in the palace, often why not be surprised, but Wei Qingjian is a waiter in the Ministry of Works, at this time, it is not the time of the early dynasty, and the palace door has not been opened, how did he enter the palace?

Unless...... He didn't leave the palace at all yesterday.

Chang He became vigilant and shouted: "Stop, it's not time to open the palace gate, what are you doing here?" ”

Wei Qingjian was not verbose, he directly took out the token that Li Jiancheng gave him, and said in a deep voice: "The prince has an order, open the palace door immediately." ”

Hearing this, Jing Junhong and Lu Shiheng, who were guarding the Xuanwu Gate, came over and stared at the token.

Chang He directly took the token and put it in front of his eyes to look at it carefully.

After confirming, Chang He returned the token to Wei Qingjian, but did not open the palace door, but asked, "What does Your Highness want to do?" ”

Uncle Xie said with a straight face: "You are the prince's people, although you follow the order, don't ask too much about the rest." ”

Chang He's eyes flickered for a moment, and then he showed an embarrassed expression: "The prince's order, I will naturally follow it, but I will open the palace door without an edict, if Your Majesty knows about it, he will definitely kill us." ”

At this time, Jing Junhong echoed: "Yes, we still want to be loyal to His Highness for a few more years, if the matter is not urgent, it is better for the two of you to wait a little longer, and it will be time to open the palace door soon." ”

By that time it will be too late.

Wei Qingjian comforted them: "You don't have to worry, after today, Your Majesty will be powerless even if he wants to punish you." ”

What does this mean?

After Chang He reacted, he was shocked in his heart, but he didn't show a smile on his face, and agreed obediently: "Yes, we will open the palace gate." ”

Immediately, Chang He ordered someone to open the palace gate.

As soon as the palace door opened, Wei Ting and others appeared.

Looking at these people who entered the palace, Chang He set off a huge wave in his heart, it seems that his guess is correct, the prince has made a big move today.

After Wei Ting and the others came in, Wei Qingjian instructed Chang He: "Don't close the palace door first, there will be people who want to enter the palace later." ”

Chang He lowered his head and responded: "Yes." ”

Xie Shufang said to Wei Qingjian: "You are guarding here, and I will take them to the East Palace." ”

"Okay." Wei Qingjian agreed.

When Xie Shufang and Wei Qingjian were talking, Chang He glanced at a soldier guarding the palace gate.

The little soldier received the hint and left the palace gate while there was a lot of confusion.

Su Dingfang carried Wei Zheng on his back, and he was so anxious, but he was surrounded by Li Jiancheng's people, and he couldn't find anyone when he wanted to report the news, so he had to follow them forward.

Obviously, the King of Qi had cleared the obstacles to the East Palace, and they entered the East Palace all the way unimpeded.

And Li Jiancheng was wearing a prince's dress, standing in the Tongxun Gate, and saw them showing a real smile: "Seeing you return safely, Li is overjoyed......
