Volume 1 The Storm Rises Chapter 154 Storytelling

In the early hours of the morning, the east gate of Chang'an City, the dark night made the city look a little different from the past, Cheng Chumo was the first to run outside to investigate the news, he was the most familiar with the east city, and he had guarded the city gate for many years before, at this time he felt that something was wrong.

"There was no fire at the gates, and no patrols could be seen walking back and forth."

Cheng Chumo told Xiangxin and Li Chengqian what he found, although the two also believed that Cheng Chumo found something wrong, but now the arrow has to be sent, Chang'an City is under the control of the King of Chu for a day, everyone has no good life, Cheng Chumo also knew this situation so he also agreed to their actions, but he still silently stayed by Li Chengqian's side, thinking that if there was really a problem, then pull Li Chengqian and run away.

According to the plan, the soldiers climbed up the wooden ladders one by one, the wooden ladders were quite strong, but there was a squeaking sound, but Chengxin and Li Chengqian did not go over, Chengxin did not dare, Li Chengqian was stopped by Cheng Chumo.

Just when the first echelon was just getting down the ladder, a row of rockets was ejected silently, the rockets did not shoot directly at people, they were all stuck in the soil on both sides, only two unlucky soldiers were injured by the rockets, but it was all right.

Everyone knew that there was an ambush in Dongcheng, so they immediately entered a state of alert, and Li Junxian, who was guarding Dongcheng, also lit the torch on the city tower at this moment, and Dongcheng was instantly lit up.

Li Junxian couldn't see the face of the person opposite, but he still asked, "Who are you?" What do you want to do? ”

Li Junxian didn't know them, but they knew Li Junxian, and Yu Chi Baolin, who followed the past, raised his neck and shouted at Li Junxian: "Commander Li, it's me, Yu Chi Baolin!" ”

Li Junxian heard this familiar voice, took the torch of the soldier behind him and threw it over, and really saw Yu Chi Baolin by the light of the fire, Li Junxian breathed a sigh of relief and said: "What are you doing, why did you touch the east gate in the middle of the night, just come back directly from the south gate!" ”

Li Chengqian ignored Cheng Chumo's obstruction, crossed the moat in a burst of dance, and came to Yu Chi Baolin's side and said to Li Junxian: "Commander Li, we heard that the king of Chu occupied the palace with his troops, so we thought of going over from the east gate to rescue my father!" ”

Li Chengqian still trusted Li Junxian very much, and when he saw him running up the city wall, Li Chengqian came over without hesitation.

Li Junxian also knew the reason for the matter when he saw Li Chengqian's familiar face, and hurriedly said: "The King of Chu and his rebels have long been subdued by me, and now they are all locked up in the prison, Your Highness can enter the city with peace of mind!" ”

Li Chengqian looked at Yu Chi Baolin and Cheng Chumo, and saw that the two of them also trusted Li Junxian very much, so he said: "Then please ask Commander Li to put down the bridge of the moat for us, and don't close the city gate!" ”

Li Junxian naturally would not be ambiguous, and while sending someone to spread the news to the palace, he ordered the bridge to be lowered and the gate opened.

These 10,000 people settled down after entering the city, Fang Xuanling was also waiting in the city, and the moment he saw Li Chengqian, Fang Xuanling relieved his heart and said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, you are frightened of the old ministers, why did you come to Dongcheng to get such a show!" ”

Li Chengqian said angrily: "It's not you yet, you appointed someone to tell us that the King of Chu entered the city, and didn't send someone to tell us that the King of Chu has been arrested, how dare we be careless!" ”

Fang Xuanling knew that something was wrong, and hurriedly smiled: "Your Highness, don't be surprised, it's not that you're more sensitive these days, so you won't let people go out of the city!" The people I sent out to deliver letters to you all ran out of Dongcheng, and the old ministers have no merit and hard work! ”

Li Chengqian didn't dare to joke with Fang Xuanling here, and took Cheng Chumo and others to the palace for the first time, and he also arrived at the East Palace for the first time.

After entering Chang'an City, I realized that everyone was waiting for themselves and others, and if they were enemies, they would fight together, and if they were friends, they would welcome them together.

So a blocking battle turned into a welcome party, and Chang'an City was back to its brightly lit appearance.

The two women in the East Palace were also anxiously waiting for the news, they knew the danger of the King of Chu when he came from others, but the fact that more than 10,000 people came to the East Gate was something that many people knew, and they were not only worried about their own safety, but also worried about what danger Li Chengqian and Chengxin would encounter on the road.

At this time, the king of Gaochangguo and the crown princess were under heavy guard, and when they saw Chang'an City from dark to brightly lit, Li Chengqian naturally would not forget these three important people, and immediately ordered Li Junxian to take people to bring them and the soldiers in after entering the city.

So at this moment, Li Chengqian, Cheng Chumo, and Wei Chi Baolin were waiting for the three of Gao Changguo outside the palace, and they had already entered the East Palace.

The people in the East Palace all knew each other, and after seeing him come in, they immediately knew what was going on, the cheers spread throughout the East Palace, and the news of Li Chengqian's return also spread throughout the entire Palace, at this time, not only the people outside the Palace were celebrating, but the people in the Palace were also relieved.

Li Yulong didn't dislike him when he saw the dusty heart, he took him in his arms and cried, smiled with the princess embarrassedly, and patted Li Yulong's back while saying, "What are you crying about, didn't I come back!" ”

Li Yulong said even more angrily: "You also said that you said before that you would come back in a month, but it's been almost three months, and the princess's sister's belly didn't get up much before you left, and now the princess's sister is about to give birth, you still say!" ”

Listening to Li Yulong's complaints, he also looked at the princess's belly by the way, and also felt a little big, and swayed from side to side while holding Li Yulong and said: "Madam, don't worry, Xianggong will take you when he goes out in the future, and Xianggong has made a great contribution when he goes out this time, if Your Majesty rewards the money, it will be enough for us to spend a lifetime!" ”

Li Yulong was so confused by satisfaction that he wiped away his tears and said, "Okay, this is what you said, you have to take me with you in everything you do in the future!" ”

Xiangxin nodded hurriedly, looked at the princess's somewhat dim eyes and hurriedly said: "Sister princess, don't worry, the prince has gone to the palace to report to the emperor, you can see him when you wait!" ”

Li Yulong also knew that the crown princess was thinking about Li Chengqian, so he hurriedly pulled Chengxin and the crown princess to the house, and said as he walked: "Tell me what happened to you along the way!" ”

"Madam, what time is it, aren't you going to sleep?"

"Don't sleep, I'm in good spirits now, I just want to hear stories!"

"You don't sleep, you don't ask the princess's sister, but she is pregnant, so she needs to rest more!"

"Sister Crown Princess is not sleepy, is she!"

"Well, I slept for a long time every day before, and when I see you back today, I want to hear the story too!"

Satisfied with the two beautiful girls surrounding him, he could only do what they said, while asking the palace maid to get him some food, while patiently telling the story of what happened along the way, but some things still did not go into detail.

Li Yulong was like a curious baby asking questions from time to time, but the crown princess had been listening to the story quietly, but her heart flew to the Jinluan Palace.

"Will Xie Ziwen come back to us?"

"Kill the royal bee? Palm size? That's not that big! ”

"Yes, my hands are relatively small, if they are as big as Brother Liang's hands, they are indeed quite big!"

"You've seen wolves too? Wow! That's amazing! ”

"Why are those Turks so insidious!"

"What princess of Gaochangguo is here? It's not for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince! ”

The crown princess's face has not changed much, even when she heard that the corpses were all over the field Li Chengqian was about to be hacked to death, she was very calm, because she knew that Li Chengqian had come back safely, but when she heard that the princess of Gao Changguo was interested in Li Chengqian, the crown princess couldn't help but shed tears.

Satisfactory and Li Yulong said energetically, but after a while, he realized that something was wrong with the crown princess, and pushed Li Yulong to signal her to take care of the princess, and then he left the princess's room and returned to the guest room that belonged to him, and the exhaustion made him fall asleep quickly, leaving two women to whisper.

Xiangxin slept peacefully here, and even Li Yulong didn't know when he climbed into his bed.

Li Chengqian's side is miserable, Li Shimin's tense nerves were put down, and after seeing Li Chengqian, he immediately asked Li Junxian to inform the hundred officials that he wanted to start an early dynasty directly.

Although the time is not much away from the opening of the early dynasty, such a sudden gathering of people has also made the entire palace busy, Li Chengqian is still obediently saluting Li Shimin, but he saw that Li Shimin was looking at the king of Gaochang Kingdom and did not notice him at all.

The kings of the two countries greeted each other, and they tacitly agreed that they did not pick out the matter, although Li Shimin had long known that the king of Gaochangguo had been pressed, but the moment he really saw it, Li Shimin still felt happy.

After Li Chengqian saluted, he took Cheng Chumo and Wei Chi Baolin to the side hall to rest, because he knew that if he didn't rest, he might want to rest again this afternoon, these days of marching and fighting made Li Chengqian learn the skill of falling asleep anytime and anywhere, in the case of the palace maid and the eunuch still reacting, the three fell to the ground in the side hall, and the palace maids were afraid of waking up the three of them, and they were afraid that the three of them would catch a cold, so they still let the three of them lie on the ground and put blankets on the three of them.

Li Junxian was also busy at this time, all the big officials in Chang'an City had to take care of it, fortunately, there were enough people, and the big officials were not asleep, after all, they knew that there might be a fierce battle tonight, plus the noisy voices of the people, they also knew the news of Li Chengqian's return, and they were all waiting in the house.

They don't know much about Li Shimin's character, Li Shimin will definitely let them go over to open the early dynasty as soon as possible, but what they don't know is that the king of Gaochang Kingdom is also in the Jinluan Palace at this time, and Li Shimin only told Fang Xuanling, the eldest grandson Wuji, Li Tao and others, and even Tang Jian, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, didn't even know.
