Chapter 21: Return to power
"His Royal Highness the Prince, I ...... I suddenly had abdominal pain, and I asked the prince to bear with me? ”
Guo Ziyi suddenly hugged her stomach, her face was flushed, and she was in great pain, sweat came out of her forehead drop by drop, and she sweated in an instant.
It's okay for other people, but people like Gao Xianzhi, Feng Changqing, and Li Guangbi saw it, but they admired it greatly.
Guo Ziyi has a resounding reputation, and it is really not for nothing. Everyone could see that his illness just now was a lie, but in this way, it was impossible for the prince to ask him to come out and echo his purpose.
What a clever mind, and the martial arts he revealed are even more terrifying, and he can sweat in an instant, which is difficult for ordinary people to do unless they really have a fever.
Guo Ziyi was able to make so much sweat on his head in an instant, and his internal strength had undoubtedly reached the point where it was extremely deep in the middle of the transformation realm, at least Gao Xianzhi's heart was very shocked.
He always thought that among all the generals, his martial arts were the highest, but what he didn't expect was that Guo Ziyi's internal strength was still above him.
A master whose martial arts has reached the level of transformation realm, if he wants to go to the next level, it is as difficult as climbing to the sky. This is also the reason why it is difficult to go further, after all, there is no end to ideals, and manpower is sometimes poor.
Prince Li Heng's face was cloudy, and he didn't pay attention to Guo Ziyi's condition, but just sneered: "You don't get sick at other times, but you get sick when His Highness asks you, what's your intention?" ”
The generals who traveled around looked at all this with wide eyes, and no one dared to make a single sound, and the atmosphere froze to the point of ice.
"The old man deserves death for his crimes, and his sins deserve ......"
Guo Ziyi suddenly knelt down, said words begging for mercy, and suddenly fell into the tent, and then remained motionless, rolled his eyes, and saw that he couldn't live, Guo Ai was shocked, even he didn't know if his Lao Tzu was really sick, he took a step in the train, and suddenly took it back stiffly, because he saw that the prince Li Heng's eagle-like eyes were shooting at him.
Li Heng's voice was even colder: "Wang Sili listens to the order, His Royal Highness orders you to be the sword and axe hand on duty today, if anyone does not obey the military order, the military law will serve and be beheaded immediately!" ”
"Yes, the minister." As soon as Wang Sili finished speaking, the shining sword stood on the edge of Li Hengshuai's case, looking like he was ready to kill.
All the generals were surprised again, it can be said that they were silent, of course, in everyone's hearts, they also felt Li Heng's determination: he must be the emperor, and he must kill his Lao Tzu.
Li Heng approved the silence of the generals, nodded slightly, looked at Guo Ziyi, and ordered: "Where is Guo Ai?" ”
"The young man will be." Guo Ai shouted loudly. He is deeply grateful to this prince and father-in-law, no matter what, there are not many princes of the prince, but he married the most beautiful princess to himself, and this gratitude has always been in his heart.
"Get your father out and get a doctor for treatment."
"Yes, His Royal Highness the Prince."
Hundreds of senior generals in the Chinese military tent watched Guo Ai help Guo Ziyi out, and didn't dare to make a sound.
Finally, Guo Ziyi's figure disappeared outside the tent, Li Heng's face was still pale, and his eyes suddenly looked at Wei Jian: "Lord Zuo Chen, His Royal Highness asks you a few words, you just have to answer me truthfully, understand?" ”
Wei Jian breathed a sigh of relief, since he only needed to answer truthfully, then he could avoid being implicated.
"You tell everyone, my father and his emperor are in the spring and autumn this year?"
"Back to the crown prince, Your Majesty is more than sixty years old this year."
"How much, exactly?"
"Sixty-three."
"What? His Royal Highness asks you again, is my father really so young? ”
Wei Jian's eyes flickered, his legs trembled for a while, and he hurriedly replied: "It seems to be seventy-three, anyway, the old minister is confused, and he can't remember it a little."
To be honest, he was really scared. He could see that if he didn't respond properly, the sword in Wang Sili's hand would cut off his head.
Li Heng's eyes were sharp, and he rolled on the heads of the generals, and said in a deep voice: "Let me tell you, if this prince is not mistaken, my father should be nine out of sixty this year, if there is no such chaos, this prince will definitely practice for his father's birthday banquet." You must also know that life is rare for 70 years. My father has worked hard for the country all his life, and now he is old and overwhelmed by the burden of the country, so he should rest well and take care of his old age. You must also know that my father was in his twilight years and lacked energy, so he was too lazy to manage national affairs, which led to today's chaos. What you mean, this prince also sees it, as a son, I can't do things that go against morality, so I decided to change my previous thoughts, and solve this matter without blood, His Royal Highness promised you to let him be the emperor, and in the future, you will all be my courtiers of the Tang Dynasty, and you will give everything you have for the recovery of the Tang Dynasty, what do you think? ”
"The old minister thinks that this proposal is the best, which not only takes into account the face of His Majesty today, but also can smoothly transition to the new dynasty."
Gao Xianzhi was the first to speak.
He is one of the few old ministers in the court besides Wei Jian. Wei Jian and the others immediately echoed his statement, even the bull monks and children in the list also agreed, but his eyes were a little cold when he expressed his approval.
In a short period of time, almost all the generals and senior generals expressed their willingness to support Li Heng as emperor in Lingwu.
Li Heng's eyes finally showed a smile, looked at the generals under him and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, in the future, you will all be the heroes of my Great Tang Dynasty, and you will be rich and noble in the future, and life and death will not be separated!" ”
Wang Sili shouted loudly: "Wealth and wealth are together, life and death are inseparable!" ”
All the generals, whether sincere or false, shouted out.
No matter how you say it, they also understand one fact. Li Longji's age is indeed too old, even if he is still the emperor now, but after his death, he will definitely be the crown prince on the throne, and his name is justified, and it seems wrong to support him as emperor one step earlier, but this is also a matter of time.
Therefore, when many people call this eight-character mantra, they do so out of sincerity.
Obviously, these routines are the result of Li Heng's conspiracy with Yu Chaoen and Wang Sili, and every step is in order.
Yu Chaoen and Wang Sili, if they are the two generals that Li Heng trusts the most now, all the generals certainly know it.
Li Heng was very satisfied, and was about to say the speech before he immediately ascended the throne, when there was a loud bang, and a tall figure appeared in front of the gate, and the banner was split with a sword, and his eyes were full of rage.
Everyone was shocked, and saw Li Longji holding the sword of Yitian in his hand, striding in, and when he came in, the first thing he looked at was the cow monk and child.
Behind Li Longji, followed by Prince Xuanzan, who was carrying a thick-backed machete, Yang Xuanlin, who was empty-handed, and hundreds of elite Imperial Forest Army, the momentum was unmatched for a while.
For a long time, the banner that was cut off by Li Longji's sword fell to the ground with a bang, and the dust was flying.
Even people like Gao Xianzhi and Li Guangbi also had a terrifying feeling in their hearts: Li Longji is so strong in martial arts!
The flag in front of the gate is made of large cypress wood embraced by several people, in order to show the majesty of the barracks, the flag must not fall, even if it is sawn, it will take most of the craftsmen's work.
Li Longji's sword, although with the help of the sharpness of the Yitian Sword, its own martial arts and dark strength are still to the point of terrifying people, and a murderous intent is like a mustard, forcing people to come.
"The minister knocks to see Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
I don't know when, Niu Monk and a few others knelt down, and in the sound of kneeling and worshipping, they welcomed Li Longji's arrival.
Obviously, during these days, Li Longji was not unconscious of what Li Heng was doing, but always paying attention to it.
And today, when it is time to see the difference, he has to be more cautious.
Moreover, the timing of his entry had already been sent to inquire clearly, which could be described as a well-planned plan.
Many generals instinctively knelt down, shouting long live in their mouths, and their hearts trembled.
After all, many of these people used to be court officials who often met Li Longji and called him to bow down to him.
Only a few people did not kneel down, and looked at Li Heng with their eyes.
Li Heng thought for a moment, and knelt down with a thud, his heart could be said to be extremely depressed, and he knelt on the blue brick floor to pieces.
Li Longji was very satisfied.
He originally thought that there would be a sword and sword shadow today, so he brought enough manpower. His prior assignment was also to use Niu Monk and Child to resist Yu Chaoen, and Yang Xuanlin to resist Wang Sili, but as soon as he appeared, all the generals were shocked by the power of the emperor after all, and immediately leaned on the heavenly sword to return to the sheath and sat on the handsome position of Li Heng.
I don't know why, his heart is now filled with a solid pleasure, and regaining military power is exactly what he dreams of these days.
Li Longji was very satisfied with accepting the mountain call of the ministers and bowing down to all the generals.
At this time, Li Longji held Gao Xianzhi's hand tightly: "Of course, Chang'an said goodbye, I didn't expect the old general to still be so majestic, but I am already old, so Li Heng's kid who doesn't know the height of the sky wants to ascend the throne in advance." I, Li Longji, can have today, general, you have made a lot of contributions. ”
Of course, he knew that the veteran had given him the greatest support. With his current martial arts, his extremely deep skills in the middle of the transformation realm, he naturally heard Li Heng's words of coercion outside the tent a long time ago, and the generals replied to Li Heng's words, and he also heard them one by one.
Although he was shocked by Li Heng's ability, he was even more grateful for the support of veterans like Gao Xianzhi.
If it weren't for Gao Xianzhi and other important ministers kneeling down with Niu Shengyu and the others just now, Li Longji knew that it was very possible for him to die here today.
What a great son!
Li Longji was deeply shocked: It seems that he has no affection for me, and he actually wants to kill me directly. It seems that this evil obstacle still remembers the incident when I seized Yang Yuhuan from his hand, otherwise, why don't you just let me be the emperor?
