Li Su's face turned pale in an instant, and his legs fell to the ground with weakness.

At this moment, he suddenly remembered what Li Bufan had done that day.

What is the noble status of the six princes, Li Jiazhuang's eyes will always be staring. It turned out that he was just giving the wrong order to the Blackwater Iron Rider in his own name! In the original plan, the Blackwater Iron Cavalry was just ambushing troops outside the city, ready to reinforce the front line at any time, give Lijiazhuang a fatal blow, and gain a certain battle feat!

But now the Black Water Iron Cavalry took advantage of the emptiness of Chang'an's defense to raise troops to attack the city. In this way, Li Su has become a chaotic minister and thief!

"Father, don't believe Li Bufan's nonsense, the sons will never dare to rebel! I transferred the Blackwater Army to Chang'an to fight against Li Hao! Father, you have to believe me! Li Su was anxious and angry, and hurriedly showed his loyalty to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin didn't even bother to pay attention to him, and snorted coldly and laughed: "Chen Aiqing, you are so calculating!" You're being played with by you, and you haven't even noticed it! He's already a stepping stone for you, right? ”

"Your Majesty is wise! Guess it and you're right! Chen Shutai waved his hand, and his smile became even brighter.

Li Shimin nodded and reviewed Chen Shutai's plan.

"Deliberately provoked a war between the Tang Dynasty and the Li Kingdom, forcing me to transfer all the troops around Chang'an to the front line to fight. Taking advantage of the emptiness of Chang'an's defense, the blackwater army who lured the stunned children rebelled and rebelled. In this way, you have become a hero who led the troops to quell the rebellion! ”

"Your Majesty has praised it again! On the side of the Black Water Army, it is the handiwork of Mr. Li Bufan, and the old ministers are old, not as young as them, so they can only do some small things in this palace. ”

"A trifle? Under my nose, it is not a trivial matter to arrange so many people to enter the palace at this moment to be noticed! ”

Chen Shutai pretended to be surprised, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty has wronged the old minister, those assassins are clearly the falcon team raised by Li Hao!" His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince has confirmed this matter, and this assassination is really a treacherous plan by Li Hao and the Six Princes, and the minister is just leading troops to escort him! ”

"Hehe, now that it's over, we don't have to hide it, what are Chen Aiqing's plans next, it's better to talk about them together!"

Chen Shutai shook his head, with a sad look on his face: "Where else does the minister have any plans?" As soon as he heard that someone had assassinated His Majesty, Lao Chen immediately brought his troops over to escort him, but unfortunately he was one step too late, and His Majesty had been killed by the assassins! But the country can not be left without an owner for a day, His Majesty instructed the ministers on the occasion of his death, and the vassals were the regents, assisting the thirteen princes Li Fu to succeed to the throne, and protect the foundation of the Tang Dynasty! ”

The group of officials behind Chen Shutai also showed sad expressions at this moment.

"Lord Chen was saddened by His Majesty's landslide, but he knew that today was the key to the survival of the country, so he turned his grief into strength, and led his ministers to resist the Black Water Iron Horse, and finally defeated the strong enemy, killed the traitorous six princes, Li Su, and protected the foundation of the Tang Dynasty to be preserved!"

Li Shimin watched the performance of this group of courtiers, and used an uncontrollable anger in his heart.

"Okay, good, Chen Aiqing is really calculating, how can I not see that you have such a deep city government on weekdays? If I guessed correctly, the invasion of the four countries some time ago was also from your handwriting, right? How many benefits have you promised them to lure nations to help them? ”

Chen Shutai didn't pretend anymore, and said with a smile: "It's just some land, it's not a big deal!" ”

"Isn't that a big deal? The Tang Dynasty was shot down by me and the first emperor, and every inch of land was soaked in the blood of heroic martyrs, and you gave it to a foreign country like this! Lord Chen, you are so generous! ”

Li Shimin finally couldn't suppress the anger in his heart, and roared loudly.

"You forced it!" Chen Shutai was also on fire, and scolded angrily.

"Your Majesty! My Chen Shutai is loyal to Datang, and the world can learn from it! But in recent years, you have appointed the traitor Li Hao, changed the soil system, and established a new law! Do you know how many people have been affected by these changes? That's it, you even let Li Hao establish a country within a country in my Datang and let him grow! It's like forgetting your ancestors and killing yourself! ”

"The minister has followed the emperor for many years, watching the Tang Dynasty build up little by little, grow little by little, I will never let go of anyone who harms the Tang Dynasty, even if it is you Li Shimin! You let the Li kingdom grow, and you also handed over the party items to him to manage, it is simply mediocre, why does the old man still assist you! ”

The sound is like a bell, echoing in the hall.

Li Shimin's face seemed to be covered with a black mist, and his face was ugly and terrifying.

"Chen Shutai, I thought you were just an old minister who didn't want to make progress, but now it seems that you are not only not enterprising, but also mediocre! The prosperity of a country does not depend on the princes, nobles, and relatives of the country, but on whether the people of the country live and work in peace and contentment! I asked myself what was wrong with the people living better day by day since the implementation of the New Deal? ”

"If the princes and nobles are not well-being, who will shoulder the burden of benefiting the people in the future? The New Deal is just a thirst-quenching move! ”

The two are-for-tat and don't want to give in to each other.

Li Shimin sighed, completely desperate for Chen Shutai.

"Stubborn!"

Chen Shutai sneered: "Right and wrong, future generations will comment that the old man doesn't want to spend more time with you!" ”

Li Shimin took a deep breath and calmed down his chaotic mood.

"I've guessed everything, but one thing is unknown, you don't have many troops in your hands. If you kill me now and help Fu'er take the position, aren't you afraid that General Qin Shubao will kill them back? ”

Chen Shutai said confidently: "Why should Your Majesty worry about this? My spies have already found out the battle situation in Changqing Plain, and General Qin's army has already fought with the Linghui army. Although the Linghui army is small in number, it can fight well, even if General Qin can defeat the Linghui army, how many troops can be left? At that time, the old man has already controlled the right to speak in Chang'an, even if they see through the old man's strategy, they will have no skills to recover! ”

"My Datang still has troops scattered outside, and General Qin has a high prestige in the army, if he gathers surrounding troops, what will you do to stop him?"

"Your Majesty is wise!" Chen Shutai waved his hand: "I have a million soldiers in the Tang Dynasty, and there are only 200,000 troops in the first battle of Changqingyuan, so naturally it will not hurt the roots." But the army guarding the frontier does not mean that it can be mobilized! If the minister now says that Tubo will lead troops to attack the Tang Dynasty again, can Your Majesty still believe it? ”

"Just withdrew the troops, and went and returned, Lord Chen is really a diplomatic expert, and he can make Tubo go through several changes."

"Haha, between countries, as long as the interests are sufficient, they can naturally be friends. Leizhou is a gift, that is, it will be Your Majesty, and it will also be tempting! ”

Li Shimin gasped: "This big gift, no wonder Tubo will act!" But I am afraid that other countries will take advantage of the opportunity to invade. ”

Chen Shutai saw that Li Shimin seemed to have admitted defeat, and he was in a good mood and continued: "Your Majesty, don't worry, now that the Li clan in Longxi and the Li clan in Zhaojun are all in my hands, after this battle, the Li kingdom will definitely perish, and then the ministers will take over Li Hao's estate." With such a large fortune in hand, the minister will give the countries a benefit that cannot be refused. In this way, Datang can be peaceful! ”

"Good calculation, good strategy, good city!" Li Shimin laughed and said three in a row.

This time, the Tang Rebellion was all in the hands of Chen Shutai, and such prodigal ambitions were really terrifying.
