Man Tanghong

Chapter 374

Li Yuan was thrown against the wall all of a sudden, his face flushed instantly, and he roared angrily, "You are presumptuous!"

Li Xiuning said relentlessly, "Isn't it?"

Li Yuan's face flushed even redder, and the veins on his forehead twitched.

Li Xiuning shook off Li Yuan's hand with all her might, and said in a blunt cry as she walked out, "I'll go to Li Jiancheng for an explanation."

Li Yuan was completely annoyed, "Take down this rebellious girl for me!"

Li Yuan's treatment of Li Xiuning was far less gentle than his treatment of Li Jiancheng, Li Shimin, and Li Yuanji brothers.

If there is a disagreement, if you say you want to take someone, you will take him, and you won't hit him at all.

Qian Niu Bei, who was guarding the entrance of the hall, rushed towards Li Xiuning without any hesitation.

Li Xiuning was stunned for a moment, turned her head back, and looked at Li Yuan with teardrop eyes.

Li Yuan didn't dare to look at Li Xiuning, gritted his teeth and turned his head away.

When Qian Niu Bei jumped in front of Li Xiuning, Li Xiuning suddenly kicked a nest that Qian Niu Bei kicked and fell to the ground.

Another two Qianniu Beishen seized the opportunity to clamp Li Xiuning's arms, but they were quickly thrown away by Li Xiuning.

The rest of Qianniu rushed forward.

Li Xiuning struggled vigorously and repelled Qian Niu Bei more than ten times, but in the end he was outnumbered and captured.

Li Xiuning clenched her fists and shouted angrily, "Did you forget how you promised my mother back then?"

Li Xiuning was questioning Li Yuan.

Li Yuan was shocked, his eyes spit fire.

It's good that Li Xiuning doesn't mention this, but when he mentions this, he won't get angry.

Before his wife died, she specifically asked him to take good care of Li Jiancheng, Li Shimin, and Li Xiuning, but Li Yuanji was not mentioned.

He has been following his wife's entrustment, but in the end, none of the three children entrusted by his wife can worry.

On the contrary, it is the son whom the wife did not entrust, relatively speaking, it is a little more worry-free.

Although that son was more mischievous than his elder brothers and sisters, he has always maintained the friendship between brothers and sisters, and maintained this family that has begun to fall apart.

by comparison.

The three sons and daughters brought up by his wife with a lot of hard work are not as good as the unpopular one.

And the unpopular one can be said to be cultivated by him.

In this way, he is obviously better than his wife in raising children.

"You still have the nerve to mention your mother. If your mother hadn't been persuading me to indulge you, how dare you act presumptuously in front of me? I shouldn't have listened to your mother back then. I should have treated you like Yuanji.

In this way, even if you are presumptuous in front of me, you will more or less take into account the relationship between brothers and sisters. "

Li Yuan roared angrily.

After the roar was over, regardless of Li Xiuning's reaction, he directly waved to Qianniu, "Take me down, and send it to Zongzheng Temple to repent!"

Li Xiuning's rationality was shattered by Li Yuan's words, she completely tore her face and roared, "Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, have you forgotten what you said when you recruited me, the king of Guanzhong?
Have you forgotten the promise you made when you wanted to use my [-] soldiers and horses to strengthen yourself? "

Li Yuan was furious all of a sudden, but he didn't growl anymore, but gritted his teeth and smiled, "King of Guanzhong? What a king of Guanzhong! I didn't expect you to remember these old things!

I'm here to answer you now, I remember everything I promised you back then!

If you want to ask me to fulfill your promise now, I will never refuse! "

Speaking of this, Li Yuan waved his hand at Qianniu's preparations with a stiff arm.

The Qianniu bodyguards quickly let go of Li Xiuning.

Li Yuan stared at Li Xiuning closely, and said with a cold smile, "Tell me, how do you, the king of Guanzhong, want me to fulfill my promise?"

Li Xiuning completely tore her face apart, so she didn't take it into consideration. She said almost without hesitation: "I want Li Jiancheng to give me an explanation!"

Li Yuan sneered sarcastically: "You are a king, asking a prince to explain? Are you worthy?"

Li Xiuning gritted her teeth in humiliation, "Then I want you to hand over the murderer who murdered Shimin!"

Li Yuan snorted, and said with a nonchalant smile: "Okay! I'll give it to you! King Qi has already gone to investigate this matter. When King Qi finds out the murderer, I will send someone to send it to you."

Li Xiuning opened her mouth, but didn't know what to say.

Li Yuan refused to let her go to Li Jiancheng, even if she moved out of Li Yuan, and the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty were unwilling to mention the old threats, Li Yuan still refused to let her go to Li Jiancheng.

She made the next best thing and wanted to murder Li Shimin's murderer.

Li Yuan agreed, but it is absolutely impossible for Li Yuan to hand over the real murderer to her.

Her silly brother couldn't find the real culprit, and even if he did, he wouldn't be able to catch the real culprit.

After all, anyone can guess that the real culprit is undoubtedly Li Jiancheng.

If she asked Li Yuan to hand over the real culprit, Li Yuan would probably just create a scapegoat.

But she didn't really want to ask Li Jiancheng for an explanation.

She just wanted to take this opportunity to teach Li Jiancheng some lessons, so that Li Jiancheng can restrain himself, and stop having such selfish intentions to murder his brother in the future.

But Li Yuan blocked the front arbitrarily and defended Li Jiancheng tightly. It might be difficult for her to achieve her goal.

"King of Guanzhong, do you have anything else to say?"

Seeing that Li Xiuning was silent, Li Yuan asked jokingly.

Li Xiuning stared at Li Yuan, and suddenly asked: "Why do you have to protect Li Jiancheng, even if he murdered his own brother, your own son, you still have to protect him?"

Li Yuan didn't answer, but asked instead: "Are you a naive child? Your mother raised you carefully for more than ten years, and you only have this wisdom?"

Of course, Li Xiuning is more than this wise. She is very clear about Li Yuan's purpose of defending Li Jiancheng, but she doesn't understand, "Is the position you sit in more important than your son's life?"

Li Yuan said without any hesitation: "It is indeed more important than my son's life. Because it was bought by several generations of my Li family with hundreds of thousands of lives.

I, Li Yuan, happened to be the first one to sit on it, so I had to defend it on behalf of all the deceased members of the Li family.

If holding it required my son's life, I wouldn't hesitate. "

The last bit of hope in Li Xiuning's heart was shattered, and her eyes gradually lost their luster.

Li Yuan waved his hands coldly, and asked Qianniu Beishen to capture Li Xiuning again and bring him down.

When Li Xiuning was about to be taken out of the door, Li Yuan said coldly to Li Xiuning's back: "From now on, there will be no Guanzhong king in Datang, and the promise I made to the Guanzhong king will also be gone.

In the future, don't use the name of King of Guanzhong to bluff and deceive. "

Li Xiuning didn't respond, and was escorted by Qianniu's bodyguards to leave Chengqing Palace.

Li Yuan didn't show any sympathy for Li Xiuning either. After Li Xiuning's figure disappeared, he decisively issued an order to Liu Jun, "Pass down the decree, cut Chai Shao to be a county magistrate, demote the officials to six ranks, cut Chai Zhewei and Chai Ling as military officers, and cut Li Xiuning for the people." , Cut off all household closures, cut off all ceremonial guards, cut off all subordinates, and fill all the subordinate officials into Daxingtai, Hebei Road."

Liu Jun opened his mouth in disbelief, and lowered his head in shock.

This is Li Yuan's cruelty to Li Xiuning.

Unprecedented ruthlessness.

All of a sudden, she descended from a high-ranking princess to a commoner.

Chai Shao, that unlucky guy, has not recovered from his injury, and is going to be unlucky again.

"Everyone……"

From Li Yuan's tone and decision, Liu Jun could tell that Li Yuan's decision had been made.

In the past, he would never speak.

But now, he decided to persuade Li Yuan at the risk of being punished by Li Yuan.

But before he finished speaking, Li Yuan asked quietly, "You should have heard about the old story of King Guanzhong, right?"

Liu Jun was startled and shivered.

The old story of King Guanzhong is just a rumor, or a joke.

It was first passed down from the folk, and it became known to the government and the public as it was passed on.

Rumors said that before Li Yuan and others entered Guanzhong, Li Xiuning was already the master of Guanzhong.

It was almost entirely due to Li Xiuning that Li Yuan and others were able to successfully enter Guanzhong and break through Chang'an City.

Therefore, Li Xiuning should make an exception and seal Guan Zhongwang.

Someone privately took this matter to Li Yuan to testify, but Li Yuan did not refute.

Therefore, even if Li Xiuning was named Princess Pingyang, the common people still believed that Guanzhong could not be crowned king, and if she could be crowned king, it must be Li Xiuning.

When Li Yuan confiscated Li Xiuning's military power, he also joked with Li Xiuning about it.

Ask Li Xiuning if she wants to be the king of Guanzhong?

Li Xiuning also jokingly replied at the time, "The king of Guanzhong is not what I want, and Guanzhong cannot be crowned king. If my father really pities me, why not make me a promise."

Li Yuan was also very generous at the time, and said to Li Xiuning without hesitation, "I promise you for my father. When you need to fulfill your promise for your father, just open your mouth and promise you a blank edict for your father, and write it as you like."

It's just that after the promise is over, as time goes by slowly.

This thing is getting more and more disturbing.

Especially after Li Yuan transferred Li Xiuning to Weizeguan Xuezang, some folks who admired Li Xiuning shouted that Li Yuan was unfair to Li Xiuning.

Some people even claimed that Li Xiuning should be the first to take the lead in the Great Tang being able to establish the Central Plains, and the rest just followed Li Xiuning to take advantage of it.

Although the words are somewhat true, can Li Yuan bear such words?

Can all the heroes who accompanied Li Yuan from Taiyuan to Chang'an bear it?
Can those who have repeatedly won titles in the Southern and Northern Wars after the Great Tang aspires to the Guanzhong be able to bear it?
Good guy, Datang can enter the Guanzhong, Dingding Central Plains, Li Xiuning, a woman's first contribution to the government?

So how do all the men deal with themselves?
Under such circumstances, Li Yuan, as well as the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, tacitly began to work together to eliminate this voice.

And secretly sent a message to Li Xiuning, telling Li Xiuning not to mention this matter again, let alone publicize it.

Now that Li Xiuning brought up the old matter again at a critical moment, and asked Li Yuan to fulfill his old promise, it was tantamount to admitting the rumors spread by the people at the beginning of the founding of the Tang Dynasty.

It is equivalent to saying in front of Li Yuan that Datang can live in Guanzhong, Dingding Central Plains, I made the first contribution to the authorities, and you all followed me to take advantage of it.

Li Yuan, who is the emperor, can tolerate a courtier provoking him like this?

As a father, Li Yuan could tolerate a child provoking him like this?

Li Yuan couldn't bear it.
