190. Bloody Xuanwu Gate (4)
"I decided to take her with me, tomorrow, no, it should be said that it is today, it is less than an hour before dawn, if today's thing cannot be done, she will not be safer to stay in the house than to go to the battlefield with us."
"As for whether the princess will become a burden to everyone when she goes with us, you can rest assured that the princess is skilled in arching and horses, and although her skills against the enemy are not as good as those of us who are veterans on the battlefield, she is safe to protect herself." Li Shimin said.
As soon as Li Shimin's words fell, everyone was suddenly silent, especially the eldest grandson Wuji and Gao Shilian, who were very shocked and angry when they first heard the princess say that they would act with them, and after listening to King Qin's words, they also became silent.
King Qin's move, to put it bluntly, is to be deeply in love with his wife, and he loves his wife to the bones, if today's thing fails, everyone present will not be able to live, not to mention, their families, and even the clansmen will be implicated.
The male of the Qin Palace's Mansion will definitely not be left at that time, and the fate of the female dependents depends on the mood of the emperor and the crown prince.
But for the eldest grandson princess, when she really got to that step in the field, her master and son died, so it was better to let her die if she was left alone.
King Qin, who had a heart-to-heart with his wife, naturally did not want to leave her alone to face the unknown and terrible endgame, and if he couldn't take her to share the glory, he took her to Huangquan together.
"Princess, please rest assured, even if I give up my life, I will help the prince succeed." After listening to the words of Li Shimin and his wife, his eyes were red, he picked up the wine glass and drank it up, and after drinking, he slammed the wine glass in his hand on the ground, and said in a calm voice.
"I'll wait the same, sacrificing my life will also help the prince succeed." Others followed suit.
After eating and drinking, the eldest grandson changed into a set of military uniforms, put on a bow and arrows on his back, and quietly sneaked into the Xuanwu Gate with everyone before dawn.
It was Chang He who was on duty at the Xuanwu Gate today, because Li Shimin had already greeted him, and they did not alarm anyone when they quietly sneaked into the Xuanwu Gate.
Don't talk about the hearts of the people in the Qin Palace, but after Li Yuan listened to Li Shimin's words yesterday, although he refused to believe it, he couldn't help but start doubting in his heart, and he kept thinking back to what Yin and Zhang had said in front of him.
It seems that they have never said that the prince and the king of Qi are not, and the prince is just that, he has a gentle temperament and is more generous to people, and it is still possible to respect the concubines for the sake of his own face.
But Yuanji has always been an irritable character, he is not even very close to his brother and sister, and he regards Wan Guifei as the crown of hatred, how can he deliberately please Zhang and Yin, so as to get their praise?
This is the case with people, who have never doubted a person's condition, who takes for granted all his actions, and who doubts all his life, and whose doubts are as unstoppable as wild weeds.
He thought about it again and again, agreed to Li Shimin's suggestion, and asked the chamberlain to go to the East Palace and the Qi Palace's palace overnight to spread the word, and summoned the crown prince and the King of Qi to confront the inner court tomorrow.
The crown prince and the king of Qi felt very strange when they received the message, tomorrow they will be resting, the emperor has already made an appointment with a few old ministers to go to the sea lake outside the Linhu Palace to go boating and recreation, what is it that makes the inner servants come to summon them in such a hurry, so that they can enter the palace early tomorrow morning to meet them?
Although Jiancheng and Yuanji were puzzled in their hearts, they didn't have too many other thoughts, after all, Li Yuan valued them very much during this period of time, and if there was anything to do, he would summon them to the palace to discuss matters.
Knowing that the emperor was swimming in the lake with a few old ministers, it was not a secret that he could not meet people, and it was not unusual to summon them in this place.
Early in the morning of June 4, Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji had breakfast, and each took a few guards to the palace.
When Li Yuanji saw the completion of the building, he stopped, and said with a puzzled expression: "Big brother, you said that my father and emperor hurriedly sent someone to summon us last night and let us enter the palace early this morning, what is the so-called matter?" ”
"I don't know, I only heard that before the servant came to our house, the second child just left the palace." Li Jiancheng said.
"It can't be that the second child gave us some eye medicine from my father, right?" Li Yuanji's eyes narrowed when he listened.
"Who knows, even if the second child messes with what is wrong in front of his father, with his father's attitude towards him now, he won't do anything to us, just go in and take a look." Li Jiancheng shook his head.
"No, if my father is moved by him and wants to be unfavorable to us, wouldn't we be very passive? In this way, the eldest brother sent someone back to the prince's mansion to explain first, and if there was anything wrong in the palace, they could also be on guard. Li Yuanji paused and said.
Li Jiancheng thought about it and felt that what Yuan Ji said was reasonable, so he sent a guard back to the house to tell Wei Zheng about it.
I don't know if it was influenced by Yuan Ji's words, and the two people who originally came lightly asked for a bow and a lance from the accompanying guards.
"Are we overly cautious?" After taking the weapon, Li Jiancheng raised his eyes and glanced around the palace gate, and found that the guards of each gate stood there like sculptures, and he couldn't see anything unusual.
"Be careful, if there is no problem, let's enter the Xuanwu Gate, pass through the Linhu Palace, and when we reach the front of the sea and lake, we will return the weapon to them." Li Yuanji said.
Li Jiancheng didn't argue with him about this matter anymore, the two continued to move forward, entered the Xuanwu Gate, and when they stepped into the Linhu Palace, Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji's hairs all over their bodies unconsciously stood up, they were all battle-hardened people, and their perception of danger was much sharper than ordinary people.
Today's Xuanwu Gate seems to be too quiet, and the two people who walked to the door of the Linhu Hall unconsciously stopped, and Li Yuanji said: "Big brother, it's not right, ......" At this time, the door of the Xuanwu Gate was closed with a bang.
"It's not good, it's the conspiracy of the second child." Li Yuanji and Li Jiancheng didn't know that they had fallen into a trap at this time, and as soon as their words fell, a round of fierce arrow feathers shot over like flying locusts, and then Li Shimin and Wei Chi Jingde led their troops to rush out.
Li Yuanji and Li Jiancheng were suddenly caught off guard, two guards were shot dead on the spot, Li Yuanji and Li Jiancheng looked at Li Shimin's murderous face, and knew that it was useless to take advantage of their tongues at this time.
If they had a choice, they would definitely choose to run as soon as possible, but the door that went out of the Xuanwu Gate had been closed, and the door that entered the Linhu Hall was stopped by Li Shimin and his party.
There is no way back, and begging for mercy or playing the family card at this time obviously will not work, in this case, the only way left is to fight hard.
There were only ten people on Li Shimin's side, and in addition to him, the other nine were all fierce generals in the Qin Palace.
Hou Junji, Changsun Shunde, Changsun Wuji, Cheng Zhijie, Wei Chi Jingde, Zhang Gongjin, Liu Shili, Dugu Yanyun and so on are among them......
