Chapter 18: Enter the Imperial City

Li Jing was wearing white dragon armor, wearing a dragon helmet, riding a white horse, and appeared at the gate of the imperial city surrounded by more than a dozen personal guards.

Looking up at Wang Xiaojie at the head of the imperial city, Li Jing grinned and said: "Wang Xiaojie, as a courtier of the Tang Dynasty, you don't want to serve the imperial court, but you follow the traitors in the court to cause chaos, and you dare to go against the heavenly soldiers of the Son of Heaven, are you guilty?"

Looking at the high-spirited Li Jing, Wang Xiaojie showed disdain, he Wang Xiaojie can be regarded as a person who has seen strong winds and waves, how can he be fooled by Li Jing's words!

"Luling Wang Xian, regardless of the ancestral inheritance, to give up the Tang Dynasty to outsiders, this is the so-called faint monarch, the queen mother in order to protect the Tang Dynasty, only to abolish the faint monarch to support the virtuous monarch, Li Jing, you rebel is really a big rebellion, and everyone will be punished for the chaos and thieves!"

Wang Xiaojie scolded.

Li Jing was silent.

Wang Xiaojie's words made Li Jing a little irrefutable, Li Xian, a fool, did say that I would give Wei Xuanzhen the world as the world, and there was nothing to say.

It was this sentence that Pei Yan and Wu Zetian seized the opportunity to use this as an excuse to depose Li Xian as the king of Luling and support the puppet emperor Li Dan, King Yu.

No matter what Li Xian's fault is, it is Li Xian's problem, anyway, he Li Jing must not bear the infamy of a rebellious minister and thief, he Li Jing is from the side of the Qing monarch and Kuang Fu Tang Sheji, he is a teacher of justice!

"Wang Xiaojie, I advise you to open the door and surrender, otherwise, when the city is broken, you will bear the consequences! Do you want these forbidden soldiers to bury you? ”

"Listen to the forbidden army in the imperial city, I will give you half an hour to think about it, as long as you can come out and surrender, I will not blame the past! If you resist stubbornly, everyone will be connected to the Nine Clans!"

Li Jing asked the soldiers to shout loudly and give them an hour to think about it, anyway, the entire imperial city was surrounded by him, and the people inside could not fly.

Li Jing didn't know that Wu Zetian had already fled from the imperial city before he surrounded the imperial city, and at this moment, he had escaped from the eastern capital and went to Chang'an.

The puppet emperor Li Dan did not escape, he was besieged in the imperial city, and when he heard that the imperial city was surrounded by rebels, he trembled with fright, and hid in the palace crying with his wife and children in his arms.

Now it's up to Wang Xiaojie, whether he will die for Wu Cao, or for the forbidden army in the imperial city, open the door and surrender.

An hour is enough to think about the stakes, even if Wang Xiaojie will sacrifice his life for Wu Cao, what about the other forbidden armies?

Could it be that they would be stupid enough to use the lives of their nine clans to serve Wu Cao?

Guo Jin didn't understand why Li Jing gave them time to think about it, so he directly opened the gate with artillery bombardment, and if he entered it, it would be over, so why bother!

Seeing that half an hour was coming, Wang Xiaojie had no intention of opening the door and surrendering!

"Forget it, I've already given enough sincerity, the people inside have to be stubborn, it's not a pity to die, let them pay for their choices!"

Li Jing raised his right hand, ready to give the order to storm the imperial city.

"Shizi, slow down!"

Su Honghui, the deputy general beside Wang Xiaojie, hurriedly shouted.

Looking at the aggressive and murderous rebels, Su Honghui was so frightened that his legs and stomach were trembling, He didn't want to accompany Wang Xiaojie to die!

Li Jing looked up at Su Honghui and saw what he wanted to say?

"Su Honghui, what do you want to do?"

Wang Xiaojie turned around and asked.

"The general is offended!"

Su Honghui directly knocked down Wang Xiaojie and seized Wang Xiaojie's weapon, and before Wang Xiaojie's personal soldiers could react, other soldiers of the forbidden army rushed over, took them down, and tied them up with Wang Xiaojie!

They are unwilling to sacrifice the lives of their nine clans for the sake of Wu Cao, anyway, no matter who they are loyal to, the Jiangshan Sheji of the Tang Dynasty belongs to the Li family!

"Do you want to rebel?"

Wang Xiaojie was furious, he didn't expect that at the last moment, Su Honghui, a bastard, actually defected and betrayed the Queen Mother, if he knew that this was the result, he should have killed him earlier.

No matter how Wang Xiaojie abused, Su Honghui was indifferent and ordered the gate of the imperial city to be opened.

Su Honghui trotted all the way, came to Li Jing, and arched his hand: "The last general, Su Honghui, welcome the son!"

"What about the Queen Mother and King Yu?"

Li Jing rode on the horse, condescendingly, and carefully looked at Su Honghui in front of him, in history, Wang Xiaojie crusaded against Khitan Sun Wanrong, in the battle of East Kip Stone Valley, it was because Su Honghui was afraid of escaping, and Wang Xiaojie, who had no support, was defeated and killed by the Khitans.

Otherwise, in the battle of Dongkip Stone Valley, the Khitan may not have the possibility of winning, and such a person will be killed by him sooner or later if he stays by his side!

Li Jing turned around, glanced at Xu Da, and asked Xu Da to secretly execute Su Honghui, a traitor.

"The Queen Mother has escaped from the Eastern Capital long before the prince came, and Li Dan, the king of Yu, has been taken down by me, listen to the fate of the future prince!"

Su Honghui raised his head and said with a flattering face!

"What nonsense? King Yu is my uncle, the younger brother of His Majesty the Emperor of the Heirs, and should be disposed of by His Majesty the Emperor of the Emperors. ”

Li Jing immediately scolded.

Li Dan has a special identity, even if he wants to kill Li Dan, he will not do it himself, and if he doesn't do it, it will cause a commotion, and his reputation for Li Jing will not be very good.

He is the righteous teacher on the side of the Qing monarch, how can he do things like cannibalism and fighting in the same room, this kind of thing is still good for Li Xian, a waste!

"Yes, yes, what the son of the world taught is that the last general made a mistake!"

Su Honghui apologized again and again, and said in his heart: What are you pretending, you are a thief, who are you pretending to be?

Li Jing rode into the imperial city, and the forbidden army had laid down their weapons and knelt on both sides of the road, waiting for the landing!

Li Jing asked Xu Da to incorporate this group of forbidden troops, break them up, and mix them with the new army he brought.

Li Jing came to the place where Li Dan was under house arrest, and looked at Li Dan's family who were huddled in the corner trembling, Li Jing felt some sympathy for their family!

This is a hard-working family, since Li Dan was put on the throne, they have been living in fear, they have not had a day of peace, and they have to worry about whether they will wake up every day and move their heads.

"Spare your life! Please spare my family, I am willing to die to apologize! ”

Li Dan pleaded desperately, hoping that Li Jing would spare his wife and children.

Li Jing hurriedly stepped forward, helped Li Dan up, and said:

"Uncle Wang, why do you say this? You and I are flesh and blood, how can I harm you!"

Li Dan's face stiffened, and he didn't relax his vigilance because of Li Jing's words, the Li Tang royal family is famous for fighting in the nest, and there is no mercy for the so-called flesh and blood affection!

When Li Jing said this, he definitely didn't intend to let his family go, he was polite on the surface, but who knew what dirty things he would do behind his back!

Li Dan was sad from his heart, his eyes were full of guilt for his wife and children, if he wasn't the prince, how good he would be, his wife and children would not suffer with him!
