Reborn Tang Emperor Li Chengqian

Chapter 526 Li Xiang's Assassination
"Jueer, you should understand what I want to say in my heart, but I don't understand, why are you? You are my prince of Tang Dynasty."

"Why did you do this? Why did you rebel? Are you so impatient to take this seat?" Li Chengqian questioned Li Jue heartbroken.

Li Chengqian didn't understand why he had come to this point. Li Jue was already the prince. As long as he died, Li Jue would be able to ascend the throne and become emperor logically.

He was so anxious to take this seat, he had to take the risk and launch a coup to seize the throne.

"I have been the crown prince for several years. In this position of crown prince, have I ever done anything wrong? Have I ever coveted anything?" Li Jue asked.

"You haven't done anything wrong, and you haven't coveted anything, but, look, who are you hanging out with?"

"Zhao Daosheng, who betrayed the owner for glory, and Liu Nayan, who slandered and flattered, are all people with bad morals. If you fool around with them, it will only ruin you."

"But these are not what I want to know. I just want to know what Nao thinks and why he rebelled. You are already a prince. Are you so impatient to become king?" Li Chengqian roared angrily.

"Why did I do this? It's not because of you. You are partial to King Wei. You want to depose me and make Li Xiang the crown prince. You forced me to do this." Li Jue said.

"I didn't do this to whip you. I hope you can wake up, stay away from those villains, get close to virtuous ministers, and establish noble morals."

"But Zhen, I never thought of deposing your crown prince, but what about you? You did such a treasonable thing." Li Chengqian said.

"This is the end! I, Li Jue, have nothing to say!" Li Jue said.

Now that you have done so, you will naturally have to bear the corresponding consequences.

"Put him down so that he can be taken care of." Li Chengqian said.

"No!" Wang Quan took the order and had Li Jue escorted to another room for confinement.

"Where are Li Jingxuan and the others?" Li Chengqian asked.

"Go back to everyone! Li Jingxuan has committed suicide at home. As for the other party members, except for some stubborn ones, they have been executed on the spot. As for the others, they have already disarmed and surrendered!" Wang Quan said.

"Did he think that suicide would be enough? Drag Li Jingxuan's body out, whip the corpse and feed it to the dogs. Even if a traitor like this dies, he won't be able to make him feel comfortable."

"Exile all of Li Jingxuan's family members to Chaozhou. As for the other people who participated in the rebellion, they will be handed over to Dali Temple for trial. Those who deserve to be killed will be exiled." Li Chengqian said.

Li Jingxuan was the chief culprit who encouraged Li Jue to rebel, even if he died, Li Chengqian didn't intend to just let him go.

"No!" Wang Quan answered the order.

"By the way, call King Wei to the palace. I have something to say to him." Li Chengqian said.

Li Jue has been deposed, so Tang naturally needs to re-elect a prince.

Among the many sons, what Li Xiang did made Li Chengqian very satisfied, and Li Xiang was also the best candidate for the crown prince.

Calling Li Xiang into the palace this time is to tell him about making him the crown prince.

Li Chengqian wanted to instruct Li Xiang well, he didn't want Li Xiang to follow in Li Jue's footsteps in the end.

"I'll do it now, servant girl!" Wang Quan bowed and stepped back.

On the same day, Li Chengqian issued an edict to depose Li Jue as Prince and severely punish those who participated in the rebellion.

……

"Teacher, Li Jue was arrested for treason, he will definitely be deposed this time, and my father will definitely make me the crown prince." Li Xiang laughed.

"There are unpredictable things in the sky, but people have misfortunes and blessings! Life and the world are impermanent, so don't be too happy about everything!"

"No one can predict what the final result will be. The winner is the one who laughs till the end." Tian You said.

"Why did Taifu say that?" Li Xiang asked.

He really didn't understand what Tian You meant when he said this, what does it mean that the winner is the one who has the last laugh?
Didn't he have the last laugh?

Now besides him, who else can become the crown prince, Li Jue is down, no matter from any aspect, he, Li Xiang, is the best candidate for the crown prince.

"Your Highness will know what I mean soon." After Tian You said, he saluted Li Xiang.

Now Li Xiang was even more confused, and Li Xiang stepped forward to help Tian You up.

The moment Tian You stood up, a gleaming dagger pierced Li Xiang's heart.

"You..." Li Xiang opened his mouth, and before he could speak, he died.

Li Xiang didn't expect that Tian You, whom he trusted so much, would kill him. Li Xiang really wanted to ask why?
What a pity! Before he had time to ask, he was killed on the spot. Li Xiang died with regret.

Li Xiang never imagined until his death that he actually made a wedding dress for someone else in the end.

"Your Highness! Don't blame me. I did this to be loyal to my master. Only by killing you can my young master hope to become the emperor of the Tang Dynasty." Tian You said.

Tian You turned around and went to the cage beside him, and took out a carrier pigeon, which had already tied a letter to its leg.

Tian You pushed open the window and let the carrier pigeon fly. When the carrier pigeon disappeared into the sky, Tian You turned around and came to the door.

"It's not good! Come quickly! King Wei has been assassinated!" Tian You shouted.

The guards rushed over upon hearing the news, and rushed in to see that King Wei Li Xiang was already completely chilled!

The guard suddenly panicked!King Wei was assassinated, and they had an inescapable responsibility. Once the higher-ups blamed it, it might be a death penalty.

"Your Highness!" Tian You rushed forward, threw himself on Li Xiang's body, and cried loudly.

"Hey! What's the matter? I heard crying all the way away?" Wang Quan walked in and said.

After a long distance, he heard crying inside, but he didn't hear clearly what it was crying.

Seeing a group of people gathered together, Wang Quan became even more curious!

A guard turned around and saluted, "Report to the supervisor, His Royal Highness King Wei was assassinated and died!"

"What? Say it again?" Wang Quan was shocked when he heard this.

"His Royal Highness King Wei was assassinated and died!" the guard said again.

Wang Quan hurriedly stepped forward to push away the guards, and looked at the ground, Li Xiang was indeed lying on the ground without breathing.

Wang Quan panicked immediately, he did not expect such a big thing to happen.

"The site is sealed off. No one is allowed to move everything here. Keep it as it is. I will report to His Majesty right away." Wang Quan ordered the accompanying General of the Forbidden Army to say.

"Wang Jian, what should we do with these people?" the General of the Forbidden Army asked.

"Detain them first!" After Wang Quan finished speaking, he turned and left. He was in a hurry to report to Li Chengqian about Li Xiang's assassination.

"Promise!" The general of the forbidden army clasped his fists in response, and after Wang Quan left, he ordered Tian You and the guards to be guarded together.

As for the scene remains the same.
