The first emperor of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 300 Qi Cun's True Identity

"This king should call you brother emperor? Are you joking with this king?" Li Tai couldn't help but said with a smile.

"Some jokes can be made, but some jokes can't be made casually." Qi Cun said to Li Tai with a serious face.

"This king only has two imperial brothers, one is the current crown prince Li Chengqian, and the other is Li Ke. I really don't know when there will be other imperial brothers."

"If you don't explain to me today, don't blame me for killing you and punish you for two crimes. It will also prevent you from fooling the public with false rumors." Li Tai's expression became very cold.

"My lord is talking about the heirs of the emperor, but he ignored your cousins. And I am the son of my fourth uncle." Qi Cun said to Li Tai word by word.

"You said you were the son of Li Yuanji? But as far as I know, the descendants of Li Yuanji and Li Jiancheng seem to have been killed by the emperor. Where did you come from?" Li Tai asked.

"It is precisely because I am only the eldest son left behind among the people that I have escaped the butcher's knife of the current emperor. This is also the reason why I have to change my name to Qi Cun." Qi Cun said.

"Li Yuanji was the King of Qi back then, and you are his only surviving son. It seems that the name Qi Cun is really suitable." Li Tai nodded and said.

"My real name is Li Kang. I was worried that others would know my identity and cause death. That's why I changed my name to Qi Cun." Qi Cun said, it shouldn't be Li Kang.

"No wonder you encouraged me to rebel, so you want to avenge your father?" Li Tai said with a smile.

"Yes, I, Li Kang, dream about killing Li Shimin to avenge my father. It's a pity that I am just a humble person who dare not even report my name. How can I kill the current emperor?"

"So you and I can help each other. You help me avenge the murder of my father. I will help you win the Tang Dynasty." Li Kang said to Li Tai.

Li Tai sneered and said: "Come here, take this traitorous minister and traitor to this king. After this king reports to his father, he will be executed quickly."

Afterwards, two guards walked in, rubbed Li Kang's shoulders and folded his arms, and tied him tightly.

And at this moment, Hou Junji, Zhang Liang, Wang Wu, Lu Tie, and several other generals walked in.

Hou Junji spoke directly to Li Tai and said, "Why did the prince tie Mr. Qi up?"

"Mr. Lu, don't you know that his real name is Li Kang, and he is the son of the traitor Li Yuanji?" Li Tai asked Hou Junji with a gloomy face.

Hou Junji couldn't help being surprised when he heard Li Tai's words, so he sized Li Kang up, down, left, and right.Then he said, "No wonder I always feel that you seem to have known each other."

"Looking at it now, you and Qi Wang Li Yuanji are indeed five or six points similar. I never thought that you would have such an amazing identity."

"It's a pity that I don't believe in people. I can win this thousand miles of land for him. But he is timid and wants to execute me Ling Chi." Li Kang said with a look of regret.

Before Li Tai could speak, Hou Junji said: "My lord, I think Qi Cun, no, it should be Li Kang, what he said is good."

"If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince returns triumphantly, at that time, with his eldest son and status as the heir apparent of the Great Tang Dynasty. In addition, he still has the merits of expanding the territory, I am afraid that you, my lord, will have no chance at all." Hou Junji Open your mouth and say.

"As long as the prince gives an order, Lu Guogong and I will lead the army to occupy the imperial city. At that time, we will welcome the Supreme Emperor back to the Taiji Palace, and let the Supreme Emperor witness that the Emperor will pass on to you." Zhang Liang said.

"With the support of Hou Junji and you Zhang Liang, I think I can give it a go." Li Tai said after thinking for a long time.

But everyone could tell from Li Tai's expression.Li Tai made this decision after a lot of self-persuasion.

Hearing that Li Tai agreed, everyone present cheered.The binding rope on Li Kang's body was naturally loosened.

I heard Li Kang say to Mrs. Li: "If the prince can let Changsun Wuji support you, then the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains in the Tang Dynasty will belong to the prince without any suspense."

"Then if I don't get my uncle's support, does that mean the coup will not succeed?" Li Tai asked Yang Kang worriedly.

"That's not necessarily the case. Fan Yang's furnace iron from Lu's family has already let the Fire Worship Cult enter Chang'an City. At that time, those who follow the prince will prosper and those who oppose the prince will be the king." Hou Junji said through gritted teeth.

……

"Father, I don't know if the prince and brother will be able to come back in time. If they really colluded secretly as they said, then Chang'an City is really in danger." Li Tai whispered to Li Shimin Said.

"Don't worry, your father and my Beiya Sixth Army are definitely not vegetarians." Li Shimin said to Li Tai with a smile.

"Just in case, I think it's better to procrastinate for a while. As long as the prince and brother come back, these cats and dogs will be nothing to worry about?" Li Tai still said worriedly.

"King Yue, King Yue, now they clearly want you to be a puppet. Do you think they will use a disobedient puppet?"

"At that time, they will definitely collude with your other brothers, and even your countless uncles." At this time, Changsun Wuji walked into the Ganlu Hall and said.

I saw Changsun Wuji walking in, and beside him was the old Qin Qiong.Li Tai couldn't help being taken aback for a moment.

So he opened his mouth and said to Changsun Wuji: "Uncle, is it possible that you also know about this?"

"If you don't want others to know, you have to do nothing yourself. Even my old man knows it. How can our country uncle not know?" Qin Qiong on the side said to Li Tai with a smile.

"By the way, uncle must be more careful these few days. It is said that Fan Yang and Lu's family have bribed the Fire Worship Cult, and they may be against uncle."

"Don't worry, you just do what you should do. The head of your uncle and my Changsun Wuji is not something anyone can take away if they want to." Changsun Wuji said with a wicked smile on his face. .

……

"Your Highness, there is news from the Fire Worship Cult. Someone paid a lot of money to the Fire Worship Cult to assassinate Zhao Guogong." Jiang Chengzu said to Li Chengqian.

"It seems that some people can't bear it any longer. If that's the case, then uproot them." Li Chengqian said with a smile on his face.

"You said someone was going to kill Changsun Wuji, who ate Xiongxin Leopard?" Cheng Yaojin stood up and asked.

"Do you still need to ask? It must be our old brother on Wagang Mountain. It's a pity that he has changed now. He has only power and desire in his head." Xu Maogong said after sighing.

"You are talking about Hou Junji, how could he have such courage? Could it be that he is really tired of living?" Cheng Yaojin asked in surprise.
