Chapter seventy-two desperate
At this time, Li Yuan was obviously already anxious.
Because once this incident spreads, the entire Li Tang royal family will become a laughing stock in later generations.
At this time, he no longer cared about any abnormality of astrology, but looked at Li Shimin and said.
"I will personally interrogate this matter tomorrow."
After saying that, he paused and said.
"You should have come and told me earlier."
After saying that, Li Yuan waved his hand and signaled Li Shimin to retreat. He came to confront Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji in the morning.
"Yes, father, son, and son, take his leave."
Li Shimin left with satisfaction, leaving behind a father who was angry.
Prince Li Jiancheng, who had nothing to do with the astrological incident, was involved in another bigger scandal.
For Li Yuan, who is already sixty years old, there are too many things that happened this day, and he needs time to think about it carefully.
However, at this moment, he was completely unaware that just now, he had made a terrible mistake.
Since the emperor had decided to summon the prince and the King of Qi to confront each other early the next morning, Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji were bound to leave the mansion and enter the palace.
The ambush opportunity that Li Shimin had been thinking about but couldn't find, finally appeared, and this opportunity was created by his father.
The loving father became a pawn of Li Shimin's overall plan.
Li Yuan didn't know that his most capable and ambitious son was actually ready to kill his brother.
After leaving Tai Chi Palace, Li Shimin immediately rushed straight to Xuanwu Gate. He wanted to meet someone. Without this person's assistance, Li Shimin's entire plan could not be implemented.
This person is Chang He, the former general of the Qin Palace.
Xuanwu Gate is the key to entering the palace, so the garrison is very elite. Whether it is a officials or a prince, if you want to enter the palace to meet the emperor, you will go to Xuanwu Gate.
At this time, Chang He was the one who served as the general guarding the Xuanwu Gate.
He was once an old general of the Qin Palace, but since he became the general guarding Xuanwu Gate, his relationship with the Qin Palace has gradually become alienated due to his identity.
At this time, what Li Shimin was looking for was this former general.
He knew very well that his entire plan must be helped by Chang He to be successful.
Under the night, the two met at Xuanwu Gate, and no one knew what Li Shimin said to Chang He that night.
I only know that Chang He finally made the most important choice in his life.
Li Jiancheng may never have thought that the final victory or defeat of his battle with Li Shimin would fall on a small city gate official.
After saying goodbye to Chang He, Li Shimin did not dare to stop and went straight to the Qin Palace.
Now everything has been settled. The throne that I have always dreamed of for so many years is so close to him for the first time.
After returning to the mansion, Li Shiming used the shortest time to tell his confidants around him what had just happened.
Next, their mission is to conspire to change the eternal case of the entire Tang Dynasty.
Just as Li Shiming and the civil and military officials of the Qin Palace were making their final preparations, Li Jiancheng also welcomed a person he had never expected in the East Palace of the Prince.
It was already deep in the night and Li Jiancheng had not yet rested. Some time ago, news came from the palace that Li Jiancheng would come to the palace to meet the saint in person tomorrow morning.
In Li Jiancheng's view, this may be just an investigation of his father's recent work. This year, the world has been drought, and there seems to be no memorials from all over the country.
He was eager to show off in front of his father, perhaps he had temporarily forgotten the scenes that happened in the morning court before, and forgot the strange aura revealed in Li Shiming's sharp eyes.
At this moment, someone who no one would have thought of appeared and brought shocking news to Li Jiancheng.
This mysterious uninvited guest is Zhang Jieyu’s personal eunuch.
Concubine Zhang is Li Yuan’s favorite concubine. Between Crown Prince Li Jiancheng and Qin King Li Shimin, she has always been inclined to the East Palace.
At this time, the news brought by her personal eunuch was nothing else, but the news that Li Shimin secretly told Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji in the harem of cholera.
The emperor summoned them tomorrow morning to confront the matter.
Who would have thought that Li Shimin's secret complaint would be found out, and at the last moment, history seemed to give Li Jiancheng a valuable opportunity to turn the world around.
After learning the news, the first person Li Jiancheng thought of was his younger brother Li Yuanji.
Although it was late at night, Li Jiancheng still called Li Yuanji.
He told Li Yuanji that Li Shimin reported to his father that he had committed adultery with the concubines in the harem, and his father asked them to enter the palace to confront each other tomorrow.
Regarding this matter, the views of Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji brothers were different.
Li Jiancheng felt that their attitude was very important regardless of whether this matter was true or false, so when he entered the palace openly and reported the whole story to his father.
However, Li Yuanji did not agree. He believed that the most powerful reliance now should be the military power he had.
Because of Li Yuan's acceptance of his fate, Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji could be said to have military power at this time. No matter what Li Shimin said, he should not care about it. Instead, he completely defeated the Qin Palace and Li Shimin with lightning speed.
Until here, Li Jiancheng still had a chance to turn the tables, as long as he accepted Li Yuanji's advice.
But unfortunately, Li Yuanji obviously did not convince Li Jiancheng.
Li Jiancheng still insists on his own opinion.
Perhaps he thought that the overall situation was settled so that there was no need to take any extreme actions, nor did he harm his own brother.
Seeing that Li Jiancheng did not adopt his suggestion, Li Yuanji said anxiously.
"Brother......"
But before Li Yuanji could speak, Li Jiancheng interrupted.
"Don't worry, even if there is anything, the imperial guards in the palace are now under my jurisdiction. Li Shimin doesn't have many troops to mobilize at this time."
After hearing Li Jiancheng's words, Li Yuanji had no choice but to agree. After all, between him and Li Jiancheng, Li Jiancheng was the one who made the decision.
After making a decision, Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji only waited for the morning to enter the palace to meet their father.
However, the two of them had not realized that their other brother had already sharpened his fists and showed off his butcher knife, just waiting for them to fall into the trap.
Since the rebellion of Jinyang, these three brothers finally came to this point.
As the rifts between the three continue to expand, the barriers continue to deepen, and the temptation of power continue to be, the brothers finally came to an end.
Brothers, who should have been intimate, will fight to the death in just a few hours, and this is something that no one except Li Shimin expected.
