New Wagang

Chapter 959
"My lord, Li Zhongwen begging to see you." The servant called softly outside the bedroom, and Li Yuan frowned slightly when he heard this. Anyway, no matter who comes to see him these days, it is always bad news, but Li Yuan is also a diligent person. , my own Great Tang Kingdom has just been established, and there are indeed many things in various aspects.

Li Yuan stood up from the couch, and replied feebly to the servant: "Let him in."

The servant turned back and left. After a while, Li Zhongwen walked into the bedroom.

This sleeping hall is where Li Yuan works, and the outer room is for business affairs and the inner room is for sleeping. This is not the inner garden of Tang Wang, otherwise Li Zhongwen would not dare to come directly to the inner garden to see Li Yuan like this.

"Li Qing's family, what's the matter?" Li Yuan was already sitting on a grand teacher's chair, holding a bowl of cold tea in his hand. This is the cold tea specially prepared by the doctor for Li Yuan. Drinking it can calm his mind.

"But there is one matter that may need to be dealt with by Mr. Tang in person. Mr. Tang, please listen to me." Li Zhongwen bowed to Li Yuan at the moment, and then slowly said: "Since Mr. Tang recuperated, the power of the Great Tang Kingdom has been delegated. After giving it to the crown prince, there is a great incompatibility between the crown prince's mansion and the Qin king's mansion. My lord, whether the dynasty lasts long or not is the most important thing for the successor, although the current crown prince and Qin king have not really broken their faces. Come on, but, I am afraid that accidents may happen if it goes on like this for a long time, so I ask the lord to cut the mess quickly."

"This unfilial son!" Li Yuan suddenly coughed a series of coughs, his face was flushed, and his panting appearance made Li Zhongwen's heart tremble when he saw it.

Li Zhongwen wanted to say something to comfort him, but he opened his mouth and then closed it again. He just stood there with his hands down, waiting to speak to Li Yuan.

Li Yuan calmed down slightly, let out a deep breath, sighed again, and said: "Every dynasty and every generation has the matter of inheritance and succession to worry about the monarch. In such a small place, you think there is nothing worth fighting for between the two of them, besides, their father and I are still in good health, and even thinking of fighting for power after being sick for a while, could it be that they are all looking forward to me? Going to heaven earlier won't do!"

"My lord, calm down." Li Zhongwen needed to speak at this moment, and said, "The crown prince and the king of Qin are loyal and filial people, so they don't think like that."

"Huh!" Li Yuan snorted coldly and then waved his hands. After a little thought, Li Yuan said again: "What can Li Qing's family do about this?"

"This is a matter of great importance to the Tang Dynasty. It should be decided by the lord. I dare not speak in vain." Li Zhongwen would not go into this muddy water.

At present, although Prince Li Jiancheng is nominally the candidate who will inherit the throne of King Tang in the future, the power in Prince Qin's mansion is not small, especially in the control of the army and horses, which makes Prince Li Jiancheng very scrupulous.

In fact, the reason why the Crown Prince's Mansion and Prince Qin's Mansion became increasingly tense before this was that the Prince's Mansion frequently dispatched generals and confidants of Prince Qin's Mansion to serve as officials of a county outside Taiyuan Mansion. This is an obvious requirement. Weaken the strength of Qin Wangfu.

King Qin was unwilling to let him manipulate him, so he intervened in the recruitment of soldiers and horses, and kicked Li Yuanji out, which made the Prince's Mansion even more unhappy.

I got all the generals in your mansion to become officials in a small place outside the Taiyuan mansion, but you robbed me of my conscription, so in the future you will definitely cultivate your forces secretly Ah, will you still listen to me then?
Ever since, the two brothers started fighting openly and secretly in all aspects, and the current situation is almost directly facing each other.

Under such circumstances, how dare Li Zhongwen come forward to publicly support which side?
Just kidding, support the prince, in case the king of Qin gains power in the future, how can I play in the future?Supporting the King of Qin, but what should he do if the prince boards the plane and becomes the King of Tang in the end?
Therefore, after Li Yuan asked each other, Li Zhongwen euphemistically expressed that he was not suitable to speak out about this matter, and he was only willing to follow orders instead of making suggestions.

Li Yuan is a minister with a long experience in government affairs, and now he is the lord of a country, so he understands Li Zhongwen's thoughts at this time, and he is not reluctant at the moment, just nodded, as if to echo what Li Zhongwen said.

When Li Yuan was deep in thought, suddenly another servant came in in a hurry, forgetting to report the report. As soon as he stepped into the hall, he shouted loudly, saying: "Report to King Tang, His Royal Highness King Qin brought soldiers and horses to kill him. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and King Qi are heading towards the inner garden with soldiers and horses!"

"What?!!!" Li Yuan's whole body trembled as if he had been struck by lightning, and Li Zhongwen, who was at the side, was so shocked that he was almost dumbfounded. , waiting for a pair of big eyes, and asked:

"What nonsense did you just say, you can say it again!"

"Master Shaoqing, the villain dare not talk nonsense. The King of Qin has indeed killed the Crown Prince and His Highness the King of Qi. The soldiers and horses are probably already outside the palace." After grabbing his hand, he collapsed directly on the ground.

Li Yuan finally came to his senses at this time, and he was very flustered at the moment, but when the two of them were a little at a loss what to do, there was sudden footsteps outside, and then a large group of servants rushed in, all of them flustered Regardless of etiquette, they rushed into the hall and knelt down towards Li Yuan, crying and shouting, and behind these servants came a lot of soldiers, some of the knives or guns in their hands were even more serious. There are bright red blood stains, and it looks like it has just been stained.

Immediately after these soldiers entered the hall, they stood in various positions and surrounded everyone in the middle. Then some soldiers drove all the servants to a corner. After tossing for a while, they saw Li Shimin with a sword hanging from his waist and a long spear in his hand. And enter.

Jiang Baoyi, Zhang Da and other generals followed behind Li Shimin. These people didn't salute Li Yuan after they came in, but just stood behind Li Shimin, with their hand still on the hilt of the knife, as if they might get out of the scabbard at any time and kill someone. The atmosphere in the hall was silent for a while.

Li Yuan also stared at the scene in front of him, not daring to show his spirit, especially the bloodstains on the tips of some knives and guns of the sergeants made Li Yuan shocking.

Li Yuan, who was originally ill, started to cough again and again in a panic at this time. The cough was so severe that he couldn't even support his waist. Still coughing and coughing.

"King Qin, where did you come from?" Li Zhongwen finally calmed down after a while, mustered up the courage to take a small step forward, bowed to Li Shimin and said:

"My lord is coughing badly. I think I just got shocked. Can the King of Qin take his soldiers and horses out of the palace to let the lord recover better? Wouldn't it be more convenient for me to say anything at that time?"
