Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 373 Betrayed
"His Royal Highness, go first, let me stop here, Li Shimin, take your life..."

Now is definitely not the time to be greedy for life and fear death. Moreover, Li Yuanji is absolutely sure that he can turn the situation around, because as long as he reaches Xuanwu Gate, everything will be a foregone conclusion.

So at this moment, he didn't think of running away by himself, but stepped forward to protect Li Jiancheng from running away.

He wants to save him, so that after Li Jiancheng ascends the throne, his side-by-side king will be even more worthy of his name.

Today, Li Shimin dared to force the palace here, so when they go back, their father will definitely not spare Li Shimin, everything is beneficial to them.

This opportunity to perform must not be missed.

After Li Yuanji yelled, he immediately grabbed the bow and arrow from a soldier and shot at Li Shimin. Li Yuanji was extremely powerful, second only to Li Yuanba among the princes.

Few people can resist the strength of this arrow.

In Li Yuanji's opinion, his arrow could directly kill Li Shimin.

However, just as the sharp arrow flew towards him, Tie Niu next to Li Shimin suddenly shouted, and then swung out a hammer, directly smashing Li Yuanji's sharp arrow into the air.

"Dare to hurt the prince secretly, die!"

After Tieniu yelled angrily, he immediately rushed towards Li Yuanji and killed him. Li Yuanji frowned slightly, not daring to hesitate, and immediately drew his knife to kill.

At this time, Li Jiancheng broke through with the remaining soldiers and horses.

Li Shimin stood outside and watched everything, but there was a sneer on the corner of his mouth.

The cold wind howled, yesterday's heavy snow hadn't been swept away, and after the killing started, the blood soon stained the pure white snow red.

One after another fell.

There are fewer and fewer people protecting Li Yuanji, and facing a tough man like Tieniu, Li Yuanji also feels a little hard. Whenever Tieniu's hammer hits, Li Yuanji feels that the blood in his body It's about to be smashed and collapsed.

Li Yuanji hadn't met such a tough person for a long time.

His hands and feet were numb, and he couldn't even hold the knife in his hand a little bit.

"Damn it..." Li Yuanji's knife fell to the ground with a slap when the iron bull hammered it down again. Li Yuanji cursed inwardly, with a look of horror on his face.

So without further hesitation, he turned around and chased after Li Jiancheng in the direction of the Xuanwu Gate where Li Jiancheng fled.

However, just as he was about to turn around, a sharp arrow suddenly struck from behind.

The sharp arrow hit Li Yuanji's back without deflecting or slanting, and penetrated so deep that he could directly see the blood flowing from his clothes.

Li Yuanji turned his head, his eyes were bloodshot, he saw that Li Shimin was holding a bow in his hand, but the sharp arrow was gone, and Li Shimin's face was very cold at this moment.

That kind of cruelty was a kind of cruelty that he had never seen before. He never thought that his second brother would be so cruel.

"You...don't want to die, you actually killed your own brother..."

Li Yuanji suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. After the blood sprayed onto the snow, it quickly melted the snow. The blood was hot.

Li Shimin's face was cold, and his voice was cold.

"If I don't kill you, you will kill me."

Li Shimin's eyes showed a murderous look, and Li Yuanji suddenly laughed: "Okay, okay, it really is non-toxic and not a husband, but you don't have to be complacent for too long, His Royal Highness will avenge me."

After saying this, Li Yuanji fell down. He didn't expect that he would die like this.

If he had known this, he should have followed Li Jiancheng to break through, but he had no chance.
-
Surprisingly, the snow in the palace was not swept. It may be because it is too thick. It cannot be swept clean. You have to pull it out or wait for it to melt.

But the thick snow seriously affected the speed of Li Jiancheng's escape.

He led Feng Li and the others to kill while fleeing, and people fell down continuously. Finally, when they came to Xuanwumen, there were only a dozen or so people left.

Half of them were killed.

"Chang He, hurry up and bring your men to kill the King of Qin, he wants to rebel." After Feng Li ran over, he shouted at Chang He on the Xuanwu Gate.

Chang He stood inside the Xuanwu Gate, holding the handle of the knife tightly with one hand, his expression was a bit stern, facing Feng Li's screaming, he just showed a sneer: "Sorry, I can't."

The five short words pierced Feng Li's heart in an instant. Feng Li glared at Chang He with a pair of eyes, and asked, "What do you mean by that? King Qin wants to kill His Royal Highness, don't you believe it?"

The corner of Chang He's mouth twitched slightly, and he just smiled lightly.

However, Feng Li didn't have time to talk to Chang He here, and shouted: "Open the Xuanwu Gate and let His Royal Highness go out."

However, Chang He still didn't move. He stood in front of Feng Li and shook his head: "I can't do it."

"you……"

Feng Li suddenly understood something. At this time, Li Jiancheng had already rushed over. He looked at Chang He angrily and said, "This prince treats you well, yet you actually betrayed this prince?"

Chang He's attitude has already explained everything. At this time, it is impossible for Li Jiancheng not to understand what's going on. He just didn't expect that the person he trusted would betray him without his knowledge.

Seeing Li Jiancheng, Chang He's expression moved slightly, and he was also a little hesitant. After all, Li Jiancheng was kind to him, but when he thought of Linglong and his son, and thought that even if he now took refuge in Li Jiancheng, he would wait for Li Jiancheng to escape. After I go, I'm afraid I won't spare myself, right?
The most taboo thing for people is not being thorough in being a good person, and not being thorough in being a bad person.

It is difficult for such a person to succeed.

Thinking of it, Chang He suddenly made up his mind and said: "His Royal Highness, Chang He, I am sorry for you in this life. I can only repay your kindness in the next life. It is absolutely impossible for me to open the Xuanwu Gate today. "

Chang He said every word clearly, and there was no way to change it. When Li Jiancheng heard it, he immediately cursed: "Okay, okay, you Changhe, this prince is really blind to support people like you, if this prince can live Go out, I will definitely chop you into pieces..."

On Xuanwumen's side, the situation is getting more and more tense, and the slaughter is still going on.

In the East Palace, the spies that Song Gongqing had arranged earlier rushed over.

"Mr. Song, the big thing is not good, the big thing is not good..."

Song Gongqing has been waiting for news in Donggong. After hearing what the spy said, his expression suddenly changed, and he immediately stood up: "What happened, but the Holy One detained His Highness the Crown Prince and King Qi?"

The spy shook his head violently, and said: "No, it's His Royal Highness King Qin, he... He has ambushed in the palace, and even bought Chang He from the Xuanwu Sect. Now that the crown prince is trapped in the palace, it may be a bad luck, Mr. Song Quickly send troops to rescue..."

"What, King Qin Li Shimin is in ambush in the palace, how is this possible, isn't he dying of poisoning?" Xue Wanche frowned in disbelief.
