From the swordsman to push martial arts horizontally - Chapter 1915
[Chapter 1914 Doubt about life]
What Li Shimin didn’t know was that not long after he left, dozens of figures came to Li Jiancheng’s body, staring at the mummy and fell silent again.
“The imperial dynasty has been like this since ancient times, and it cannot be avoided.”
Shan Wanjing, who has a close relationship with Li Xiuning, hugged Li Xiuning in her arms and softly comforted her, sighing in her heart about the cruelty of the struggle for the throne.
Before, Yang Guang who killed his father and brother became emperor, and now Li Shimin has also embarked on that path.
Is this fate?
“Sister-in-law, watch over here, I’ll bring sisters-in-law and the others out.”
After barely calming down, Li Xiuning confessed to the eldest grandson Wugou, and flew towards the Crown Prince’s East Palace with a spear.
The death of the elder brother was his own choice, and since he made a choice, he had to bear the price.
But the sister-in-law and those nephews and nieces are innocent and should not be implicated, and must be taken away as soon as possible.
“Will he be able to do it?”
Shen Luoyan was very curious about Li Shimin’s next choice. He has already killed his brother, but will he kill his father next?
“Probably not, Li Yuan is a smart person.”
Yan Liuli analyzed, she had already analyzed this point many times, and used the method of empathy to simulate the thinking mode of Li Yuan, Li Shimin and others, and came to the final result.
Li Yuan is not a fool, he will make wise choices no matter for himself or for Li Tang.
Li Yuan is indeed not a fool. Although the two sons killed each other made him very sad, but he did not go to the end of the matter.
Just send experts over to see if they can persuade the fight, as long as no one is dead, it’s fine, at worst, put the weaker party under house arrest.
In the end, no matter who wins, he has the confidence to keep his life in his lifetime.
It’s a pity that Li Shimin had expected this a long time ago, and asked Qin Mengyao to stop all the experts who came to support him.
People from Buddhism and Taoism also acted together to help Changsun Wuji stabilize the situation in Chang’an City, and at the same time prevent the nine thousand basalt warriors from the camp outside the city from coming in to support Li Jiancheng.
Although today’s decision was hasty, fortunately, Changsun Wuji planned in advance, and managed to stabilize the situation and bought Li Shimin precious time.
In this way, Li Shimin led five thousand Xuanjia elite riders to Daxing Palace, and saw the father sitting on the dragon chair.
“Where’s your elder brother?”
Li Yuan, who was slumped on the dragon chair, asked without raising his head. In fact, when he saw his second son walking into Daxing Palace alone, he had guessed something, but he still had a glimmer of hope.
Li Shimin didn’t speak, but this silence itself was an answer.
After receiving this silent answer, Li Yuan seemed to have aged twenty years in an instant. He leaned back on the dragon chair, and couldn’t help but recall in his mind his wife’s first pregnancy, and then his eldest son was born, and he named him Li Jiancheng.
Then Jiancheng grew up slowly from such a small point, and finally grew up through countless bumps and bumps, becoming his right-hand man.
But now his son was killed by another son, and the pain made him feel heartbroken.
“Is it wrong to be a father? Shouldn’t you be on the road of hegemony?”
After a long silence, Li Yuan asked suddenly, already beginning to doubt his life.
When he first embarked on the road to hegemony, he was still full of vigor, but who would have thought that he would be hit so quickly.
Li Shimin remained silent, and at the same time doubted what he had done in the past, but soon became firm again.
Whether it is right or wrong, he has no way out now, he can only go one way to the dark, and has no other choice.
“Bury your eldest brother Haosheng, kneel in front of his grave for three days, and after three days you will be the prince.
Save Yuanji and the others!”
With a final sigh, Li Yuan waved his hand to signal the second son to deal with the eldest son’s funeral, and made a promise at the same time.
Li Shimin opened his mouth, but seeing his father’s haggard appearance, he couldn’t say anything, so he could only turn around and leave.
“Buddha! Tao!”
Not long after Li Shimin left, the gloomy voice stirred in Daxing Palace, and there was a murderous intent in it.
Li Yuan is not a fool, he knows very well that the second son can’t succeed so smoothly, there must be external help, what kind of external force can be figured out with his toes.
But now we really need the support of Buddhism and Taoism, it is not advisable to do it, and we will settle it when the opportunity comes.
Li Shimin’s high prestige in Li Tangzhong, coupled with Li Yuan’s help, soon completely stabilized the situation, and personally visited officials of Li Jiancheng’s line, giving them reassurance.
Of course, Li Yuanji was taken down along the way.
It’s a pity that Li Yuanji knew what he had done before, and was afraid of being tortured to death by Li Shimin, so he simply committed suicide in the prison, retaining the last bit of his dignity.
Li Yuan, who knew the news, was even more shocked, and fell ill on the couch to recuperate.
But Li Shimin knelt in front of his brother’s grave according to Li Yuan’s instructions, and five thousand Xuanjia cavalry guarded him in the distance, and there were even masters like Qin Mengyao sitting in the guard, so he was safe.
“Report! A letter from the eldest grandson!”
On the morning of the second day after Li Shimin knelt down, a guard rushed over and presented a letter, which was written by the eldest grandson Wuji who lives in Chang’an.
“Auxiliary machine?”
Frowning, Li Shimin knew that something serious might have happened, otherwise Changsun Wuji would not have been able to write a letter at this time.
“Big Brother and Yuan Ji’s wife and children are missing.”
Opening the letter, Li Shimin frowned even more.
“I took it away!”
Just when Li Shimin was thinking about who made the move, two beautiful figures appeared beside him, and then another beautiful figure flashed over, it was Qin Mengyao.
Qin Mengyao was in charge of protecting Li Shimin. Now that two strangers approached suddenly, he had to come over and take precautions.
“Miss Qin, they are not enemies!”
Li Shimin said with a complicated expression as he raised his hand to stop Qin Mengyao who was about to draw his sword.
Taking a deep look at Li Shimin, Qin Mengyao left without saying anything.
Now that Li Shimin had said so, she naturally wouldn’t stay and waste time, not to mention that the two of them really had no malice.
Obviously, if not a friend, it should not be an enemy.
“Are you… how are you doing?”
Li Shimin opened his mouth and asked secretly.
“Except for being unhappy with a certain bastard, everything else is fine.”
Li Xiuning responded, while kneeling down, lit the prepared paper money and threw it into the brazier.
“What about you?”
Nodding, Li Shimin looked at his ex-wife’s eldest grandson Wugou who had been silent all this time.
“Same as Xiuning.”
Changsun Wugou replied simply, but his heart was quite complicated.
She had expected this earlier, but she didn’t expect it to come so soon.
Erlang finally came to this step.
“I didn’t want to deal with my sister-in-law and my younger siblings.”
Li Shimin changed the subject with the same complicated mood. He had indeed thought about killing the grass and root, but when he recalled his father’s sad look, he finally suppressed that thought.
It’s just that the younger sister unexpectedly appeared in Chang’an and took away the family records of the eldest brother and Yuanji.
“I know you don’t want to, but someone does.”
Li Xiuning’s mood is also very complicated. Like her father, she doubts whether it was right to embark on the road of fighting for hegemony before.
This road is destined to be full of blood, not only the blood of the enemy, but also the blood of one’s own people, and even the blood of relatives.
