Traveling through the early Tang Dynasty starts with hanging

Before dawn, Li Jiancheng set off in a hurry and endured the escort of ten well-armed elite soldiers... In Li Jiancheng's view, this kind of escort was no different from escort.

When he arrived outside the Phoenix Valley, the fear in Li Jiancheng's heart suddenly increased. Although Liu Heier arranged for people to clean up the battlefield, there were still corpses piled up outside the valley, and the air seemed to be filled with a strong smell of blood.

Although Li Daoxuan and Su Zhi didn't get any suggestions last night, Li Jiancheng still guessed what happened. The reason is very simple. I haven't noticed anything unusual since I came here from Jingzhao. It can only be Yang Wen, the governor of Fangzhou... Could it be Wei Yunqi, governor of Ningzhou?

After waiting outside the valley for a long time and still not being allowed to see him, Li Jiancheng found that his hands were trembling involuntarily. He felt that he was throwing himself into a trap... If it was really Yang Wengan, it would be the best excuse for his father to abolish the prince .

However, I really didn't let Yang Wengan raise his troops to plot rebellion.

"Your Highness." Wang Gui leaned over and said in a low voice, "It seems that most of them are the personal guards of King Wei Si."

Wei Ting, who was relatively familiar with Sun Moon Lake, also nodded and said, "I just saw Liu Heier, Wang Junhao, Fan Jiqing, Qu Hong and other generals, all of whom are the leaders of Huairen's personal guards."

"It should be His Majesty who ordered Wei Si Wang to restrain..." Wang Gui stopped talking halfway. After the Tiantai Mountain World War last year, it was also Li Huairen who was ordered to restrain the army for a long time until he returned to Beijing.

At this time, more than ten riders came from the Phoenix Valley, and the leader was Wei Si Wang Li Huairen.

"Meet Your Royal Highness."

"Huiren." Li Jiancheng greeted him and was about to walk inside.

"His Royal Highness." Li Shan leaned over and stopped Li Jiancheng.

"Huiren?" Wei Ting grabbed Li Shan's sleeve, his voice was a little trembling... Could it be that His Majesty is not even willing to see the crown prince?
Seeing Chai Shao standing far away, Li Shan said in a low voice: "It's not that bad yet, please tell the truth, Your Majesty the Crown Prince has been quite tired these days, and has already gone to bed."

Then Li Shan looked at Wang Gui, and said emphatically, "Since Brother Wei and Uncle Jie came here with His Royal Highness, they must be open-minded. Please be sure to describe the details without omissions or lies."

After a pause, Li Shan added: "Your Majesty ordered someone to be transferred to Zong Zhengqing."

As soon as this sentence came out, the three of them knew that there were very few people who could help in this matter, and the Wei Siwang in front of him was definitely one.

Li Jiancheng took a deep breath, "Don't worry Huairen, I will never hide anything."

Then Li Shan brought three people into the valley, and all his followers were placed outside the valley to guard them, but these three... including Prince Li Jiancheng were only treated in a small tent, and there were even two sword-wielding soldiers guarding the gate.

"Set up a few more tents and put them on the other side, a little farther away." Li Shan instructed Qu Silang, "Be careful at night, Yu Wenying, Yu Wenbao and Yang Wengan are all tied hands and feet, but these three, still None of the two previously placed."

Li Shan was not afraid of the relationship between these three people. After all, it had been several days, and the confession should have been done long ago. The key is that Prince Xima Wei Zheng and Prince Sheren Lu Hong who rushed to the Palace of Renzhi in advance.

Li Jiancheng is likely to try to find out what happened in Renzhi Palace in the past few days from these two people.

Qu Silang nodded in response, "Don't worry, Ah Lang, they are guarded by personal guards, and everyone carries a bamboo whistle. If there is something wrong, be alert immediately."

Li Jiancheng in the tent felt sweltering and extremely sweltering. Although he guessed that Yang Wengan had risen, he didn't know exactly what happened. Although he knew he was wronged, everything seemed to be hidden in the mist.

Maybe I should listen to Pei Shiju and come here earlier, maybe my father can clear up his doubts.

No no, look at the corpses on the ground, if I had done it earlier, I might have been kidnapped by the rebels, and everything would be irreversible.

Messy thoughts swirled back and forth in Li Jiancheng's mind, he didn't even bother to eat the wheat and rice brought in, he only thought about what would happen to him and what choice his father would make.

Suddenly a loud voice sounded in the distance, and Li Jiancheng, who was awakened, thought for a while and opened a crack in the curtain. From a distance, he saw soldiers under command, armed with weapons, gathering towards the Taniguchi from all directions.

Li Shan at the entrance of the valley was greatly relieved, because Wei Yunqi, the general manager of Ningzhou, rushed over.

Ningzhou is on the west side of Fangzhou, and Phoenix Valley is on the southwest side of Fangzhou, which is much closer than Chang'an. Wei Yunqi returned to Ningzhou yesterday and immediately mobilized troops to come. It was too late for the infantry. He rushed forward with six or seven hundred cavalry.

"They are all arranged outside the mouth of the valley." Li Shan ordered: "The Yangcheng County government sent a deputy general to lead the army."

Wei Yunqi responded, he knew that His Majesty ordered King Wei Si to control the troops, his personal guards must guard the valley entrance, it is impossible for his own troops to be placed in Phoenix Valley.

"After the infantry arrived, they set up camp at the border of Jingzhao and Fangzhou." Li Shan continued: "Send another scout to investigate."

"Ok?"

Li Shan hesitated for a while, then said in a low voice: "The prince has gone to the Palace of Renzhi, but he has not been able to see him. King Qi is away and has not returned yet."

Chai Shao on the side explained: "Your Majesty ordered Huairen to be transferred to Zong Zhengqing."

Because Li Yuanji is away, and there are seven or eight hundred troops in his hands, although it is clear that this is a waste material, Li Sixing and Yu Wenshao in the Qi Palace are not waste. Searched within a radius of ten miles, but no trace of King Qi was found.

Gradually, one day is going to pass. Although most of the affairs are handed over to Liu Heier and Chai Shao, Li Shan can't hold on anymore. He hurried on the road yesterday and was called by Li Yuan after he didn't sleep for a while. There was a fight.

At this moment, a scout came galloping.

"Ah Lang." Before the scout jumped off his horse and reined in, "hundreds of infantry are coming from the northwest side."

Li Shan turned his head and took a look. Liu Heier had already commanded the guards to prepare, Wei Yunqi sent the guards to send an order, and the hundreds of cavalry outside the valley retreated to the southwest.

Chai Shao signaled a few soldiers of the imperial army to come forward and investigate. Two quarters of an hour later, more than a hundred cavalry came galloping, and the leader was Li Yuanji, the king of Qi who looked terrified.

"This...this is..."

Although the corpse has been contained, anyone who is not blind can tell that there has just been a brutal slaughter here. Li Yuanji felt uneasy and shouted: "Third brother-in-law, is father okay?"

Before Chai Shao had time to speak, or he was unwilling to speak, Liu Heier had already sternly shouted: "Stop!"

Regardless of Li Yuanji's disregard, he even sped up, shouting to himself, but the cavalry behind him slowed down, but did not stop.

"Ahei!"

Gritting her teeth, Liu Heier turned over and jumped onto the red brick platform, bent her bow and set an arrow, the arrow went like a shooting star, and hit a cavalry mount behind Li Yuanji.

Li Yuanji finally reined in and stared at Liu Hei'er, as if he still hadn't figured out who it was?

But the next moment, Li Yuanji's eyes fell on the face of the tall and thin young man next to Chai Shao, and his expression changed slightly, why did Li Huairen appear here?

Li Shan thought to himself, now that everyone is here, he can finally start.
