In fact, there should be eleven people on Li Shimin's side, and one is the eldest grandson princess, but Li Shimin couldn't bear to see her hands stained with blood, and he was even more afraid that she would be regarded as the primary target by Yuan Jihe Jiancheng, so he let her hide aside and didn't show up.

When Li Yuanji and Li Jiancheng entered the palace, they each had six guards around them, and when they were halfway there, Li Jiancheng sent one person back to the East Palace to report the news, and they had just been shot dead by two people, and now there are eleven people left.

Eleven against ten, you don't necessarily lose! Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji glanced at each other, and made a decision in an instant, since there is no way to retreat, then rely on their own means to divide your life and death!

"Kill!" Li Yuanji and Li Jiancheng shouted loudly, and while resisting and avoiding the rain of arrows, they rushed towards Li Shimin and the others.

The number of people on the two sides is about the same, and the combat power Li Shimin has Wei Chi Jingde, Dugu Yanyun, and Cheng Zhijie's fierce generals, who have a slight advantage, but the person who can become the close guard of the prince and the king of Qi will not be weak.

When the advantage of the sneak attack was neutralized, and the two sides were short-handed, the next battle quickly turned into a daylight, Li Yuanji hated Li Shimin very much, he didn't care about other people at all, and rushed towards him desperately, obviously trying to kill Li Shimin with the speed of wind and thunder.

It's just that although his idea is good, there is no one who can come to Xuanwumen with Li Shimin, and Li Yuanji's rushing figure was quickly intercepted by Hou Junji.

Hou Junji is a famous warrior in the Qin Palace, famous for fighting bravely and not afraid of death, Li Yuanji was stopped by him, it was not easy to get out for a while, and the two quickly became a mess.

Li Shimin's side was one less than the prince's side, and the strongest Wei Chi Gongren faced two people, while Li Shimin fought with one of the prince's guards.

Because when Li Jiancheng first arrived at the palace gate, he was reminded by Li Yuanji to go back to the prince's mansion to report the news, and Wei Zheng, who had always been cautious, immediately notified Feng Li, the general of the East Palace Yiwei, and asked him to summon the East Palace Yuwei, pay close attention to the movements of the palace gate, and attack immediately once he found something wrong.

For this reason, the movement of the Xuanwu Gate closing quickly alarmed Feng Li, and Feng Li immediately made a decision and immediately led hundreds of horsemen to the Xuanwu Gate.

It only took a few moments for everyone in the Xuanwu Gate to hand each other, and Feng Li rushed to the outside of the Xuanmen Gate with the people.

"Zhang Gongjin, you go up to the city wall to block the reinforcements outside, and leave it to us here." As soon as Li Shimin stabbed his opponent off his horse, he heard the violent sound of horses' hooves outside, and immediately turned his eyes to Zhang Gongjin and shouted.

Zhang Gongjin made two false moves, turned around and left, and his opponent did not entangle, and immediately rushed towards Li Shimin.

There was no mediocre hand present, it was extremely difficult for Dafan to get out of being entangled, and Li Shimin wanted to shoot the prince and Yuanji, but he couldn't find a chance.

Yuan Ji and the crown prince wanted to kill Li Shimin, but they couldn't find a chance for a while, but when they heard the sound of horses' hooves coming from outside, they immediately cheered up, listening to the sound, as well as the actions of King Qin, the people who came must be the people of the East Palace.

As long as they insist on the reinforcements of the East Palace breaking through the door, the winners of today's ambush will be them.

It's just that Jiancheng and Yuanji's thoughts haven't finished yet, and there is a scream not far away.

But it was the two guards who were fighting with Wei Chigong who were stabbed to death by him with a spear, plus the one who was killed by Li Shimin, there were only nine of the eleven people on the side of the prince and Yuanji.

Feng Li, who was outside the Xuanwu Gate, came to the gate of the city and shouted a few times for the guard Chang He to open the door, but Chang He ignored it, and Feng Li ordered his soldiers to attack the door with all their might.

Not to mention the movement outside, but inside the Xuanwu Gate, Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji saw that the gate of the Xuanwu Gate suddenly closed after they waited for them to come in, and Li had already understood that the Shou He here had been bought by Li Shimin.

The soldiers on the Xuanwu Gate turned a blind eye to the battle inside the gate, they could understand, and what puzzled them was that there was no movement on the side of the Linhu Palace, which was only separated by a wall from the Xuanwu Gate.

The movement here is so loud, the sound of killing is shocking, but the Imperial Forest Army inside has not reacted at all, this is really unreasonable, could it be that the entire palace, inside and out, is controlled by King Qin?

Or, even if there is no control, they will not intervene in the war between the two sides until the King of Qin and the crown prince have not decided the winner?

They won't defend the crown prince just because he is a prince and orthodox? Thinking of this, the hearts of the crown prince and the king of Qi almost fell to the bottom.

They don't know what the emperor is thinking about, but there is one thing that the crown prince and the king of Qi understand, as far as the current situation is concerned, the only thing that can save them is the reinforcements outside the gate attacking the city gate.

Other than that, until they had a win or defeat with King Qin, no other forces would intervene in this battle.

Li Jiancheng, who realized this, was sad and angry, he couldn't imagine that the civil and military generals who were respectful to him, the prince, on weekdays were all grass on the wall when they really needed to stand in line.

And Li Yuan, who was boating on the sea lake outside the Linhu Palace, did vaguely hear what seemed to be moving on the side of Xuanwu Gate, but the two places were far away, and when he listened carefully, he couldn't hear anything.

"Did you hear any voices from the Xuanwu Gate?" After Li Liyuan listened to it several times to no avail, he couldn't help but show a suspicious look in his eyes, and turned his head to ask the ministers around him.

There are Pei Lian, Xiao Yu, Feng Deyi and other old ministers by his side, and the general who led the emperor to guard the safety of the emperor by the lake is Qu Tutong, Li Yuan has fought a lot of battles over the years, and he is much stronger than Pei Lian, Xiao Yu, Feng Deyi and other ministers.

He couldn't hear the voice clearly, Pei Lian, Xiao Yu, Feng Deyi and the others couldn't hear it, everyone shook their heads, and Li Yuan turned his gaze to Qu Tutong on the shore: "General Qu, what about you?" Did you hear anything? ”

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister didn't hear any sound." Qu Tutong's heart jumped slightly, but his face was inconspicuous, and he said with a calm face.

Li Yuan couldn't ask everything, but the doubts in his heart never dissipated, the three sons clearly said that they had come to confront each other today, why hadn't they come at this hour?

It's just that it's inconvenient to tell the ministers what he wants to ask today, and it's not good for him to bring it up in front of the ministers.

Don't talk about Gaozu's thoughts, but inside the Xuanwu Gate, as Feng Li rushed to the Xuanmen Gate with hundreds of East Palace guards and constantly attacked the city gate, Li Shimin was entangled by the opponent, and he couldn't solve the opponent for a while with all his strength, and he was very anxious.

The longer this ambush dragged on, the more unfavorable it was to itself, and once the soldiers and horses outside the city broke out, they would lose everything.

But at this time, a strong crossbow flew out of a corner without warning, shooting through the opponent who was fighting with Li Shimin, and the man raised half of the spear in his hand fell to the ground with a bang, and the person also fell off the horse.

Li Shimin was surprised and delighted, knowing that this was the handiwork of his wife who was hiding in the shadows, but he obviously didn't have the time to think too much about it at this time.

As soon as his hand was empty, he immediately put down the lance, took down the bow and arrow on his back, pulled the bow and arrow, and shot an arrow at the crown prince Li Jiancheng, who was fighting with Cheng Zhijie......
