Chapter 703
Under the Xuanwu Gate, Chai Lingwu, Li Yuanchang and Xue Wanche attacked the Xuanwu Gate with a large army. Although Xue Wanche was good, the Xuanwu Gate was a natural moat that lay firmly in front of him.What's more, Li Junxian, the guard of the Xuanwu Gate, is even more fierce. It is not easy to win the Xuanwu Gate without internal support.

The rebels took the Xuanwu Gate by force, and before the imperial guards in the palace were relieved, they fought for a long time. At this time, Wu Meiniang and Li Fan had also arrived at the Xuanwu Gate.

"General, the Crown Princess and the King of Wugong have arrived." Li Junxian commanded the defenders of Xuanwumen who were defending the city, when suddenly a soldier stepped forward to report.

Li Junxian was surprised when he heard the words, the rebel army attacked the city, and the Xuanwu Gate was in danger. It is indeed strange that the crown prince brought the crown prince here at this time.But since Wu Meiniang came, Li Junxian didn't dare to neglect, ordered the deputy general to command, and rushed to the back by himself.

Sure enough, as the soldiers said, when Li Junxian rushed to the inner city of Xuanwu Gate, the crown princess Wu Meiniang had already brought Li Cong and hundreds of people from the East Palace.

"The last general, Li Junxian, pays homage to the crown princess and the county king." Li Junxian bowed down to Wu Meiniang and Li Fan.

Wu Meiniang raised her hand, signaling Li Junxian to get up, and then asked, "How is the situation in the city?"

Li Junxian said: "Crown princess, don't worry, there is a final general, Xuanwumen can be safe, but it's dangerous here, please ask the princess and the county king to avoid it first."

Although Xuanwumen's city defense is safe for a while, but the sword has no eyes, Wu Meiniang and Li Fan will inevitably be accidentally injured here. Once they are injured, the responsibility for it is beyond Li Junxian's ability to bear.

Wu Meiniang knew what Li Junxian meant, but she still said: "The defenders of the Xuanwu Gate are only more than a thousand people, so it's hard to keep them intact. This time, I came here to help the general defend the city with the guards of the East Palace. If the Xuanwu Gate is here, I will It’s safe anywhere, if the Xuanwu Gate is lost, even if I hide in the inner palace, I won’t be able to escape.”

Xuanwu Gate is the gate to the north of Taiji Palace. As long as Xuanwu Gate is there, the rebels will not be able to enter the imperial city. Under the attack, no matter where Wu Meiniang hides with Li Fan, she will not escape bad luck, so instead of worrying about being afraid in the palace, it is better to simply hand over the soldiers and horses leading the mansion in the East Palace to Li Junxian to defend the city together.

Li Junxian heard the words, cupped his hands and said: "The princess is righteous, more than a man, and I will admire it in the end."

Wu Meiniang ordered Gao Kan to take the people from the East Palace to help defend the city immediately, and asked Li Junxian, "Who is the leader of the rebel army?"

Li Junxian replied: "The rebels are led by Li Yuanchang and Chai Lingwu, but it is Xue Wanche who commanded the soldiers to attack the city."

Wu Meiniang also knew Xue Wanche's temperament. After thinking about it, she said to Li Junxian: "Please trouble General Li to go to the city to shout, and say that the crown prince's son-in-law and the king of Wugong County have arrived, and they should stop the fighting first."

"Promise." Li Junxian heard the words, agreed, and went to the city.

The so-called rebels outside the city were actually soldiers of the Imperial Army who were still kept in the dark, most of whom were sons of Guan Zhong. If they knew that what Li Yuanchang and Chai Lingwu were doing was plotting rebellion, they would definitely not follow the rebellion.

But after the siege for a long time, the Xuanwu Gate has not yet fallen, and some soldiers have slowly recalled that something is wrong. Because there was no fighting spirit, many soldiers stopped at the first time, and slowly, as some people stopped, more and more soldiers stopped in place.

"Pin'er, are you afraid?" Wu Meiniang asked Li Fong, pulling Li Fen up to the Xuanwu Gate amidst the guards led by the East Palace Guards.

Li Fan is only six years old this year, and he is still a child. Facing this kind of battle, there is no one who is not afraid, but even though Li Fan is afraid in his heart, he still suppresses his fear and insists on saying to Wu Meiniang, "Pin'er is daddy." Your child, Huan'er is not afraid."

Wu Meiniang used to teach Li Fan about Li Ke's betrayal as a teenager. Li Fan's masters, including his attendants Di Renjie and Qin Ling, often mentioned Li Ke's past events. Li Fan was fascinated by it and took it as an example Only then did I say this.

Wu Meiniang then asked Li Fan, "Did you remember what my mother told you just now?"

Li Feng replied: "Don't worry, Auntie, I've written it down."

"Okay." Wu Meiniang nodded with a smile, picked up Li Fan, and stood by the city wall.

"Your Majesty's grandson, the crown prince's eldest son, Wu Gongjun Wang Li, who dares to make a mistake!" Li Junxian yelled loudly, resounding inside and outside the Xuanwu Gate. Li Xuan in his arms.

Li Fan is the eldest son of Li Ke, and he often goes in and out of the Forbidden Palace. Li Fan's appearance is recognized by many soldiers of the Imperial Army. With Li Fan's appearance, the whole Xuanwu Gate slowly quieted down, even Chai Lingwu and Xue Wanche He stopped what he was doing.

"Where is Xue Wanche, General of Youwuwei!" After a while, Li Fan forced his composure on his immature cheeks, suppressing the panic in his heart, and asked loudly to the city.

Xue Wanche came here to force the palace, but when Xue Wanche heard Li Fan's loud shout, he hesitated for a moment, then unconsciously took a few steps forward, cupped his hands to Li Fan and said, "The last general, Xue Wanche, is here."

Li Fan watched Xue Wanche come forward, looked at A Niang beside him, turned his head again under A Niang's encouraging eyes, and asked Xue Wanche: "Xue Wanche, do you know where this is? What are you doing?"

When Li Fan asked, Xue Wanche was stunned on the spot. For a short moment, Xue Wanche closed and opened his eyes again, looking at the three words "Xuanwumen" hanging above his head, as if he had been in a lifetime.

This is the Xuanwu Gate, the confidant of the Great Tang Imperial City. He was attacking the city and provoking the authority of the Great Tang Emperor. When asked by Li Fan for a while, Xue Wanche, who was already dull, was a little speechless.

For a while, Xue Wanche, who was attacking Xuanwumen with all his enthusiasm, began to have some fears. It is true that he and the people in the East Palace are at odds, and it is also true that he will not be able to keep his wealth once the crown prince ascends the throne, but attacking Xuanwumen is a crime of treason. Could this be what he should do as a courtier?
When Xue Wanche was asked by Li Fan, he was stunned.

Seeing Xue Wanche froze on the spot, Li Fan did not stop talking, but followed what Wu Meiniang had taught him before, and continued: "The Imperial Guards of the Tang Dynasty are all brothers of Paoze. Why, do you want to help the thieves plot rebellion against the emperor's grandfather and take over my Great Tang Dynasty?"

In the first sentence, Li Fan asked Xue Wanche, and in the second sentence, Li Fan asked the "rebels" under the city. In fact, the so-called "rebels" are ordinary soldiers of the imperial army. They still don't know anything about this matter, but from the coach and Han Wang Li Yuanchang's Lingqin King, rebellion was definitely not their original intention.

Li Fan has a special status. With the appearance of Li Fan, the hearts of the rebels in the city have been dispersed in a short time. When they were gone, Chai Lingwu looked at the scene in front of him, feeling anxious, secretly turned his hands behind his back, picked up the bow and arrow on the horse's back, and was about to shoot at Li Fan who was in the city.
