Chapter 378: Li Yuan abdicated
The Xuanwu Avenue from the Xuanwu Gate to the Imperial Palace has long been blocked by Li Shimin, and no matter how the palace fights, the people in Chang'an City still don't know. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
On Suzaku Street, a few drunken men shouted, "What kind of fool is it, setting off fireworks in broad daylight?"
"Well, no, brother!" the other man said, "Look, look...... I've seen the stars!"
Li Shimin walked towards the palace with everyone, walking as he went: "Thank you Zhong Shao for your help this time!"
"It's a deal!" Kou Zhong's mood was not much higher.
Li Shimin smiled, and didn't care too much about these details. I was just about to find some topics, but I heard Huang Yi's voice ask indifferently: "You killed the Xuan seniors?"
Li Shimin was stunned for a moment, and only after a moment did he react and said, "It turns out that Brother Huang recognizes this artifact! Xuan Senior is not an ordinary person, how can I kill it?"
"That day was ...... sin," Huang Yi asked curiously.
"Hehe......" Li Shimin smiled gently, just like before.
"Before, I saw that there were people in Chang'an City, in the land under my Li Tang's jurisdiction, who were not well fed and clothed, so I went up to give alms. But the man told me that if I could pass a series of tests, he would grant me the magic of saving the people of the world from fire and water. At first, I wasn't convinced, but I thought maybe he needed help, so I casually asked about his test. Who knows, it has indeed helped a lot of people. In the end, after I sent a few jars of wine, he really took out the artifact and gave it to me in a daze!"
"Is this all right?" Huang Yi was speechless for a while.
"Naturally, it's not that easy. Li Shimin said with a smile: "After the old-timers woke up, they also saw that I was bent on saving the people of the world. Coupled with the fact that he had already promised me when he was drunk, he didn't feel embarrassed anymore. He said that I was the second, and the first was too soft-hearted to kill him. This kind of person, even if he has the help of an artifact, is difficult to be the master of the world. Unexpectedly, the first one was Brother Huang. ”
"How can I do it to a person who has no grievances and no enemies?" Huang Yi asked rhetorically.
Li Shimin sighed and said, "This is the test of the heart. Throughout history, that emperor was not fought for? Moreover, the test of the Xuan seniors would not be so simple. Although he asked you to kill him, do you think you can really kill him? Even if I have the 'Heavenly Sin' in my hand, I may not be able to do it! Do you know that the real number one master of the Tiance Mansion is actually the master of the Tiance Mansion. Not the Red Whisk Girl. ”
Huang Yi, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling were all shocked. I can't imagine that this inconspicuous Li Shimin has such strong kung fu.
While a few people were talking, they arrived outside the imperial study. Feng Deyi and some civil officials greeted him, and the former said: "After the emperor woke up, he insisted on going to the imperial study, and a few of us didn't dare to stop him. “
Li Shimin frowned and said, "Does my father already know what happened?"
Feng Deyi replied: "Princess Xiuning has explained it clearly to the emperor, but the emperor only listened. “
Li Shimin asked, "What about Xiuning?"
Feng Deyi said: "I am still in the imperial study, accompanying the emperor." “
Kou Zhong stopped Li Shimin, who was about to enter the imperial study, and said, "You'd better not go to see him now." Let me advise. “
Li Shimin was in a daze for a moment, and the finish line agreed.
Feng Deyi said to Kou Zhong: "The young marshal comes with me." “
The two of them entered the heavily guarded imperial study, and directly resisted the door of the study, Feng Deyi said through the closed door: "Tell the emperor, the young marshal asks to see." “
After a while, the door opened, revealing Li Xiuning's tired jade face, meeting Kou Zhong's gaze, his beautiful eyes shot a complicated look that made Kou Zhong's heart tremble, and said softly: "Young marshal, please come in." “
Kou Zhong and Li Xiuning passed by, bitter in their hearts. For this 'first love', he is still somewhat difficult to let go of in his heart. When Li Xiuning gently closed the door for him outside, he only heard Kou Zhong muttering softly: "I am no longer a young marshal!"
In the room, only Kou Zhong and the Tang Emperor Li Yuan were left sitting behind the dragon table.
Li Yuan's consciousness had not yet fully recovered, his face was pale, and under the reflection of the book in the vast space, it not only made him even more lonely and desolate, but also made him feel like he had suddenly aged for many years.
He silently watched Kou Zhong approach, and asked in a deep voice, "Jiancheng and Yuanji?"
Kou Zhong sighed and said, "We originally intended to spare their lives, but they were obsessed and killed by me under the Xuanwu Sect. “
Li Yuanlong's body trembled, he looked up at the roof beam, tears rolled in his eyes, he stood up, moved his hands to the back window, turned his back to Kou and said slowly: "How do you rectify the endgame." “
Kou Zhong said respectfully: "Now the civil and military officials are gathered outside the Taiji Palace. If the emperor is willing to take this opportunity to announce the successor to the ministers, Kou Zhong can swear allegiance to the Tang Dynasty on behalf of the young marshal army and the Song lord, so that the great cause of the Tang Dynasty to unify the world is nine out of ten, please ask the emperor to decide. “
Li Yuan turned around like a whirlwind, his eyes were shining, and he said coldly: "If I don't declare Li Shimin the heir of the crown prince, do you want to kill me quickly?"
Kou Zhong said abruptly: "No, the emperor should understand better than anyone why the crown prince and Li Yuanji died at my hands." ”
Li Yuan raised his head and laughed: "Because Shimin doesn't want to bear the charge of killing his brother and father." He wants to be a perfect good emperor, that's why he wants you, an outsider, to do it!"
Kou Zhong nodded and said, "What you said is good. But that's only half right. If the emperor is willing to nod his head, we will become our own people, where are there outsiders? At present, although the Tang Dynasty has almost unified the Central Plains, it is still at a critical moment of undecided success or failure. Don't ask the Turks, Tiele, Goryeo, Tubo, Dangxiang, Tuyuhun, Huifu, Shuofang, etc., still eyeing the Central Plains. Now Datang must immediately stabilize the morale of the army, boost morale, and unite to meet the outside of the Saiwai. Otherwise, the Central Plains will no longer be our Central Plains, and I hope the emperor will think twice. ”
Li Yuan's face turned pale and sighed: "The young marshal is indeed a very good lobbyist. “
Kou Zhong smiled bitterly: "The past is the past, and we must face the future." Chang'an is under the control of Brother Shimin, just waiting for the emperor to declare his holy will to the ministers. And after this incident, I will go back to Song Valve. Hidden from now on!"
This time, the Xuanwu Gate has changed, and the brothers are killing each other. It is up to me, Li Yuan, to bear the greatest responsibility, and I no longer have the shame to sit in this position. Hey......" Li Yuan let out a long sigh, turned around and walked out.
Outside the Taiji Palace, Li Yuan personally declared. The crown prince Li Jiancheng hid tens of thousands of soldiers outside the Yanjia Palace, intending to plot wrongdoing, and first ambushed Xuanwu Gate. And Li Yuan officially announced his abdication and succeeded to the throne with Li Shimin. This announcement was completely unexpected by everyone. Even though everyone present had already voted for Li Shimin, they still suspected in their hearts that it must be Li Shimin who forced Li Yuan to abdicate.
didn't know that Li Yuan fought the world, but he caused several of his sons and brothers to kill each other. I'm really tired, and I don't have the heart to manage! )
