Will Ming

Chapter 610 Seven is exactly that person

Li Yuan is not a person without family affection, but he gave almost all of his family affection to Li Jiancheng alone.Li Jiancheng is the eldest son, the one who will inherit everything from him.It can be said that Li Yuan did his best to train Li Jiancheng. When he was in charge of food in Huaiyuan Town, Liaoxi, he almost handed over all the tasks at hand to Li Jiancheng. It can make people understand more deeply and thoroughly.

Later, he was transferred by Yang Guang to Hedong as Xuanfu ambassador, and the daily affairs in the yamen were also handed over to Li Jiancheng.He just wants Li Jiancheng to get in touch with government affairs and military affairs earlier and more comprehensively, so that he can grow up faster.

Later, when he ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, Li Jiancheng handled daily government affairs as a prince.Those memorials that were not particularly important, Li Yuan, were sent to the East Palace, and even the appointment and dismissal of court officials was assured that Li Jiancheng would make the decision.Only when it involves court officials of the fourth grade or above, he will personally deal with it.

After so many years of training, he has trained Li Jiancheng to be a real all-rounder.

In terms of government affairs, Li Jiancheng's prudence is not inferior to that of Li Yuan.In terms of military affairs, the several battles commanded by Li Jiancheng were all won.It's just that Li Yuan deliberately let him get in touch with government affairs more than military affairs, so in comparison, Li Shimin's reputation in the army is higher than that of the prince.But we can make a hypothesis. If Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin have the same number of troops, people, and land, and let them fight to the death, who can see through the outcome at a glance?

But Li Jiancheng died, and Li Yuan's hard work for half his life turned into spring water and went downstream with the river.

He cried like a father, not an emperor, in the imperial study room of the Taiji Palace.

Pei Ji, Li Daozong and others looked at the emperor's appearance and felt very sad, but who can restore it now?When the emperor was crying, he asked again and again, what can I give you in exchange for you?Everyone in the imperial study knew that no matter what the emperor offered, he couldn't get the prince's life back.Even if it's the throne, the country, the people, or even the emperor's own life, it won't work.

"kill!"

Li Yuan raised his head abruptly, his eyes were red as if they were two blood cells.At this time, he doesn't have the majesty of an emperor. He is just a father who lost two sons one after another.Li Jiancheng's death can even be said to have taken away half of his vitality.When Li Yuan got the news of Li Jiancheng's death, half of his life seemed to die at this moment.He even felt that a corner of the Tang Dynasty's world had collapsed.

"Kill them all!"

He pointed to the outside and shouted like crazy: "I will kill all those bastards outside, don't keep one... All traitors and thieves who participated in the conspiracy will be punished!"

"No!"

Na Yan Pei Ji and General Li Daozong yelled out almost at the same time, and then they knelt down on the ground and kowtowed almost at the same time: "For the sake of the great Tang Dynasty, please take back your majesty's order!"

"how?"

Li Yuan stood up slowly, looked at the backs of the two of them lying on the ground with cold eyes, and said coldly: "My two sons died, can't I avenge them? If so, you also stop me If so, what does my emperor want to do!"

"I dare not!"

All the ministers in the imperial study knelt down and touched their heads to the ground.

Pei Ji and Li Daozong secretly glanced at each other, then nodded slightly at the same time.Both of them knew that His Majesty's order must not be promulgated, otherwise Datang would really be in chaos.The rebellion of the King of Qin was just a minor disaster, and if this order is promulgated, Datang is afraid that there will be a catastrophe immediately!

"His Majesty……"

Pei Ji raised his head, took a deep breath, and said solemnly: "The rebel army has surrendered nearly 3 troops, and if they kill the nine clans, they will implicate more than a million! If they continue like this, it will be almost equivalent to killing four or five wealthy people." The common people of the county. Forgive me bluntly, the foundation of the Tang Dynasty is still not very strong, and the massacre will inevitably cause public resentment..."

"People's complaints! People's complaints!"

Li Yuan said angrily: "You only care about people's grievances, so tell me why you don't have any grievances!"

"People want to kill, and they want to kill decisively."

Li Daozong nodded to Pei Ji, and then said slowly: "Today, none of the remaining rebels will be pardoned, no matter whether they are rebels in the court or soldiers of the rebel army. I will sacrifice the blood of [-] sinners to the spirit of His Royal Highness in heaven. Let those who plan to do anything wrong know that the laws of the Tang Dynasty cannot be desecrated, and His Majesty's heavenly power cannot be violated!"

"Who is chasing that traitor!"

Li Yuan didn't pay attention to what Li Daozong said, nor did he look at Pei Ji's eager eyes.He took out a handkerchief from his cuff, knelt down and carefully wiped the blood on Li Jiancheng's face and asked, "Don't tell me, you just watched him escape like that!"

"Returning to Your Majesty, it is Xi'an King Li Xiaogong who led the army to pursue the rebels."

Pei Ji replied.

"Send someone to tell him that all the rebels, no matter how high or low, don't want to take prisoners, not even a single one! Pei Ji, you come to draw up the seal, write it now!"

None?

Pei Ji and Li Daozong were startled at the same time, thinking that if they really didn't want any of them, would King Qin also want to kill them?If King Qin also kills His Majesty, who will the throne pass to?Although His Majesty has many heirs, he has only four sons, the eldest son Li Jiancheng, the second son Li Shimin, the third son Li Xuanba, and the fourth son Li Yuanji.

The first prince died, the Qi king Li Yuanji died outside the eastern capital, the third son Wei Wang Li Xuanba fell off his horse and died, and now there is only one Qin king... The throne will never be passed on to the concubine, how can His Majesty carry out this will?

Pei Ji stood up, his heart was so tangled that it became a knot.

After being silent for a while, he picked up a pen and slightly changed Li Yuan's original words in order to give Li Xiaogong's will.

From the general down to the pawn, they will not be pardoned.

And when Li Xiaogong got this imperial decree, he panicked for a moment and then understood.I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and murmured something from the general down to the pawn, Qin Wang is naturally not included, he is not a general, let alone a pawn, he is the emperor's son, the king.

Be it Pei Ji or Li Daozong, everyone knows that Li Shimin should not be killed lightly.His Majesty is extremely unsteady in what he says or does when he is furious now.But who knows if he will regret it after he calms down?After all, the fugitive is his only legitimate son now.As for the other one in the legend... Forget it, King Qin's rebellion is already a disgrace to the Tang Dynasty. Could His Majesty admit the existence of a child who was going to be killed but didn't die?Once news of His Majesty killing his son to save his life gets out, what will be left of Datang's face, His Majesty's face?

……

"Li Shimin broke out of Chang'an City under the protection of less than 1 cavalry. It was already too late when he left the city. Li Xiaogong had already led his troops to block the city gate. If Yuchi Gong hadn't been brave enough to lead hundreds of cavalry to kill through the imperial army. After killing a bloody road, Li Shimin may not be able to escape. The troops of Wang Xuba, who he stayed 3000 miles outside the city, were surrounded by the elite soldiers of Hedong County. More than [-] people died in battle, and more than [-] people surrendered. Tang Jian commanded Most of the rebels died in the battle, and the rest escaped with Li Shimin protected."

Xie Yingdeng stood behind Li Xian with his head down and said, "There are almost 3 rebels trapped in Chang'an City. It is said that Li Yuan was furious and ordered to kill all of them. Started to kill people, counted it has been killed for three hours and has not been finished. There are more than 3 heads, and more than one of the executioner's knives may have collapsed."

"Li Shimin's cavalry fled all the way to the southeast. Li Xiaogong, the king of Xi'an, led the forbidden army, and more than [-] cavalry from the elite soldiers of Hedong County were chasing after him. In addition, Li Daozong, the king of Jiangzhou, led an army of [-]. The camp of the Tang Army in the Eastern Capital is presumably to prevent Li Shimin from escaping back to the Eastern Capital, and Li Yuan will not be at ease with Duan Zhixuan."

He paused, and asked tentatively: "If you don't chase, Li Shimin's Qingqi will be able to charge three hundred miles after tonight, and it will be difficult to chase again."

"Why chase after?"

Li Xian waved his hands and said with a smile: "That's someone else's housework, why should we worry about it. Gu brought tens of thousands of troops here, the first purpose is to watch the excitement, if the excitement is not lively enough, Gu will join in the fun, But now the excitement is already very lively, so why bother to make His Majesty the Emperor feel troubled? He has two sons dead, why should he have some sympathy, right? As for the second purpose, I just want to see what he is doing Whenever I think of Gu, what kind of things do I want to say to Gu? "

He looked at the extraordinarily round moon in the night sky and said with some emotion: "When I come here alone, I don't send a single soldier, just to let the emperor see my attitude. If he hasn't lost his mind because of his son's death , you should know the attitude that Gu is waiting for him now."

He turned to the military tent and said in a low voice, "Wait."

Xie Yingdeng was taken aback, thinking that tens of thousands of elites are stationed here, is it true that they don't send a single soldier?Is it really just to watch the fun?

a long distance away

In the night, the elite troops of the brigade entered Juyeze with neat steps, and every soldier had a proud smile on his face.Although they were very tired, they traveled thousands of miles and fought more than a hundred battles in the past half a year, and they rushed back to Dongping County, but they were all in a good mood, and everyone was a little anxious to return to Juye Ze In Dazhai, take a comfortable hot bath and then have a good sleep.

Walking at the front of the line was a young man wearing a Confucian shirt and riding a red horse. There was also a ray of fatigue that could not be concealed between his brows, but like those soldiers, there was more in his eyes. A sense of relief and relaxation, although it took a long time, but in order to eradicate the hidden dangers in the south of the Yangtze River, he stayed in the south for two more months.Hou Junji and Zhang Liang were left behind to guard the newly captured dozen or so counties, and he came back with peace of mind after clearing out the remnants of the enemy.

He is Xu Shiji
