Datang Lingnan King

Chapter 34 The Transformation of Xuanwu Gate
As the battle in Li Jiancheng's suicide palace gradually subsided, it took only an hour before and after, but there were indeed a lot of casualties. Feng Daiwen Tiewei had 18 people left, only the two Chen brothers were intact, and more than 100 people in Li Shimin's Xuanjia Army were basically dead. Now, there are only more than 500 of the 40 guards led by Chang He's three generals, and there are only more than 2000 disabled. Wang Yu’s death in Taiyuan’s Wang family was the worst. More than 1000 people were killed. After they were scattered, they were basically killed by the 5000 guards on the left and right guarding Chang’an. We can’t blame the guards for being slow here. It’s a special day. In the city, outside the city, and the gates of the palace, even inside the palace, there are not many guards around Li Yuan. Although Li Yuan has the Yuan Rong Imperial Army, no one will mobilize them, and they will only guard the Wude Hall of Li Yuan's bedroom, plus the Xuanwu Gate. It took only an hour from the beginning to the end of the battle here, so there are still many people in Chang'an who don't know exactly what happened.
"Your Highness, now is not the time to be sad, please hurry up and ask the saint to come forward to appease you, otherwise Chang'an will be in chaos." Feng Daiwen persuaded Li Shimin, who was sitting paralyzed next to Li Jiancheng's body: After all, Li Yuan is the emperor, and the current situation is very unclear. Maybe all the twelve guards came to serve the king.

At the same time.Qin Palace is not peaceful.As mentioned earlier, the person Li Yuanji hates the most is Li Shimin.He thought there were so many soldiers and horses in the palace.It should be settled.So he sent more than 1000 palace guards under him.Plus recruited hooligans.From the left chariot of Qu Zhizhi's mansion to Xie Shufang, more than 2000 people from the guard Yu Wenbao were sent to attack the Qin Palace.Fortunately, the guards of Prince Qin's Mansion are all veterans of the battlefield, but they couldn't stand each other for a while.

It is said that Feng Daiwen and Li Shimin were just about to enter the palace an hour ago, and they suddenly felt restless. They called the guards and said: "You hurry up and inform the fourth brother, so that he can act according to the plan."

The personal guards soon came to Feng's house in Chang'an and informed Feng Daijin. Feng Daijin was taken aback, and hurriedly dispatched his staff to inform Cheng Yaojin, Wei Chigong and others, and went down to pick up Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Changsun Wuji and others to Qin Unified protection of the palace.After meeting up, a group of people rushed to Qin Palace with 1000 guards.
Qin Wangfu was attacked as soon as Li Shimin and others entered the palace. Xie Shufang and Yu Wenbao were ordered to die by Li Yuanji. In danger, the eldest grandson Wugou also sat in front of the hall with a sword in his hand with a calm face.The guards of Prince Qin's mansion also defended desperately when they saw the princess personally supervising the formation.

"Rebellious ministers and traitors, dare to attack the Qin Palace. Kill me." At the critical moment, Feng Daijin and others rushed to the Qin Palace and saw that someone had already entered, so they couldn't help but hurriedly ordered an attack.He even rushed forward with Fang Xuanling and others. In this era, literati and martial arts are not bad. If you don't have good swordsmanship, you are not a good literati.In this era, literati will just travel around. If they don’t have martial arts, they will be killed or robbed on the road. Scholars pay attention to the six arts of a gentleman, such as archery, imperialism, imperialism means defending against enemies, and imperial horses.

"Hou Junji is here, don't be presumptuous." "Zhang Liang is here, and he hasn't surrendered yet." Hou Junji and Zhang Liang also led people to kill them from one side. It turned out that they lived far away.Just happened to lead the troops past Qin Wangfu.

Most of the soldiers Xie Shufang and the others led were made up of local ruffians, but being attacked from three sides like this, they suddenly became a mess.After a charge, they were killed and fled in all directions.Yu Wenbao was killed by Hou Junji.Xie Shubao died in the chaos.A group of people rushed into the palace and saw that the eldest grandson and others were safe before they were relieved.

"I have seen the princess, the minister was so late that the princess was surprised." Everyone saluted and saw:

"The generals are exempt from courtesy, and the eldest grandson would like to thank you for paying attention to the generals. I don't know the news about the generals, King Keqin." The eldest grandson asked worriedly:

"Return to the princess. Before Chen Chen came, he had sent someone to inform Su Guogong, and E Guogong and others went to meet him." Feng Daijin replied:

"That's very good, I'll trouble you to arrange other things, I'll take my leave after appeasing the backyard." Changsun Dasong came with a sigh of relief:
"We will obey the order" everyone saluted:

Fang Xuanling, as Li Shimin's default first civil servant, saw everyone looking at him and said: "The matter is urgent, I will not be polite. General Hou, please take some people to meet the King of Qin. General Zhang is the main one. Feng Duwei Assist in guarding the palace and arrange for people to find out the situation"

Everyone followed orders. . . . .

Wude Hall

Li Yuan sat on a high chair with an ugly face, guarded by the Yuan Rong imperial army,
"Sage, the King of Qin asks to see you." Eunuch Huang saluted Li Yuan:

"How many people did Nie Zi bring here?" Li Yuan asked angrily:

"The sages are King Qin and General Feng Daiwen," Eunuch Huang said:
"Come in." Li Yuan waved his hand with a slightly relaxed expression:

Li Shimin entered the main hall with a plop, knelt down in front of Li Yuan and cried bitterly, "Father, elder brother Yuanji falsely preached an imperial decree, tricked me into entering the palace, and wants to kill me!"

Feng Daiwen silently saluted and stood aside.

"Where are your elder brother and Yuan Ji?" Li Yuan asked tremblingly.

Li Shimin didn't speak.He just knelt and took two steps forward, holding Li Yuan's leg and crying bitterly.

"Please mourn the sage, the prince killed himself when he saw that the matter failed." Feng Daiwen saluted Li Yuan and said softly:

"What?" Li Yuan asked in disbelief, although he had already prepared in his heart.But when the bad news came, the blow was still too great. After all, Li Yuan was originally a person who protected the calf, and he was a 60-year-old man.Li Yuan seemed to have aged many years in an instant, and sat down paralyzed,

"Father!" Li Shimin also kept crying in pain,
Feng Daiwen saw that the two of them had been sinking into grief, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "Sage, the most important thing for the King of Qin now is to let the crown prince rest in peace, and the city doesn't even know what happened. It is necessary for the sage to come forward to appease the army, otherwise Chang'an City will be in chaos."

Li Yuan deserves to be the emperor for many years, this decision is still there, "Ai Qing is right," Li Yuan said, wiping away tears and sighing: "Erlang, get up." He staggered to his feet, and Li Shimin quickly stood up and supported him. Li Yuan.

On the wall of Xuanwu Gate, Li Yuan stood in the middle, and Li Shimin stood beside Li Yuan. Li Yuan looked at the twelve guards below and said with a complicated expression: "The king of Qi is unfilial. The title of king of Qi, demoted to common people, all princes and daughters of Qi will be sent to Lingnan and never return to Beijing." Li Yuan set the tone for this incident. "The loyalty of the army is commendable, and each division has its own duties, and they will be rewarded together in another day." Li Yuan said loudly to the bottom again: Let's go, turn around and leave after speaking.The army shouted from behind: Thank you saint, saint Wanan made Li Yuan feel even more uncomfortable,,,,,,,,
