Chapter 332: Lee Tae Assassinated
??ps: Third shift, arrive before ten o'clock...
??Of course, this is just Li Yin's idea, and he has not acted yet, but he is not so heartless, allowing the north to play lively, but he lives a leisurely life with his wife and strolling in the garden.
?? "Your Highness, something has happened!"
??After Li Yin returned to Yizhou, he had been paying attention to the situation of the war in the north. On this day, Su Mo'er hurried over with an anxious expression on his face.
?? "What's the matter?" From Su Morer's face, Li Yin saw something unusual.
Su Mo'er quickly walked up to Li Yin and said, "Zhi Shi Si Li led the old army to rebel, and now he is fighting fiercely with Li Ji and Cheng Yaojin's army outside Huaiyuan City, but Jie Li is leading an army of 200,000 troops. We have surrounded Huaiyuan City and are attacking the city with all our strength. Now, there are only 30,000 defenders in Huaiyuan City, so it won't last long."
Li Yin was a little surprised, but it seems that all this is reasonable. Since ancient times, the non-my race must have a different heart. The reason why the power of obsession and thoughtfulness returned to the Tang Dynasty was not because Xieli was defeated. Now seeing the return of the old lord, my heart It’s no wonder if you don’t waver, and coupled with Xie Li’s rhetoric, this obsession will inevitably betray Datang, just like An Lushan. In order to paralyze Datang, he recognized Concubine Yang as his mother, without any shame, and the result was not the same Betrayed Datang. "Your Highness, why are you in no hurry!" After Su Mo'er said this, he only saw a trace of surprise on Li Yin's face, but he did not see a trace of worry.
??Li Yin smiled softly, "You don't have to worry about the safety of the emperor, there will be no problems, but the lives of these 30,000 soldiers, hey, war is really cruel."
??Su More was stunned. She wondered: "How does Your Highness know that the Emperor will be fine?"
"Because the idea of ??letting the emperor stay in Huaiyuan to attract the main force of the Turks, and then use ambushes to attack the Turks was originally my idea, but I didn't expect that Zhishenli would rebel. Now I can only hope that Xue Rengui can arrive soon." Li Yin frowned and said. "Since I dare to let my father take this risk, then I am naturally prepared."
?? "Could it be that Your Highness gave that thing to the emperor?" Su Mo'er is so smart, that's the only thing that can make Li Shimin escape safely.
??Nodded, the corners of Li Yin's mouth raised, "By the way, does Chang'an know the news now?"
?? "Understood. The Shadow Guard just got the news from the palace!" Su Morer said.
?? "Then maybe we will have a good show to watch." Li Yin smiled meaningfully. Chang'an, the Tai Chi Palace is already in chaos at this time, the eunuchs and maids are in a hurry with anxious faces, and many concubines have arrived at the Yanxi Palace at this time. They all counted on Empress Changsun to come up with an idea.
"Empress, what do you want to say now?" Concubine Yin is in a state of desperation at this time. The status and glory of these concubines all come from Li Shimin. If something happens to Li Shimin, they will have a hard time in the future. .
??Empress Changsun is extremely anxious, but as the master of the harem, she must not lose her footing at this time. She said: "Why are you all panicking? It's not like you haven't experienced the time when Jieli attacked the city of Chang'an when the emperor first came to the throne. I was the same as before. If the emperor ascended, Jieli's army broke into the city of Chang'an." , I will never live, I will put this bottle of poison here." Empress Changsun picked up a small porcelain bottle, "The day Chang'an City is broken. That's when I take this poison."
?? Concubine Yang stood beside Empress Changsun and said, "I and Empress Empress have the same meaning." If Chang'an City is broken. These concubines will definitely be humiliated, so it's better than this. It's better to end it like this.
??The other concubines were all pale when they heard the words, and one concubine said: "Empress, why are you doing this? We might as well go to Yizhou to avoid disaster for now. Since His Royal Highness the King of Shu can defeat Tubo, it may not be impossible to defeat the Turks."…
?? "Hmph, Yizhou is the fiefdom of the king of Shu, and Chang'an is the capital of the emperor. Now everything is unclear, but you are thinking of running to Yizhou for refuge. Let me ask you, can you feel at ease?" Empress Changsun sternly said.
??The reprimanded concubine suddenly fell silent, and the entire Yanxi Palace fell into a dead silence. At this moment, an **** rushed over and shouted: "The empress, the empress, His Royal Highness the King of Wei has been assassinated!"
?? "What!" Empress Changsun raised her heart and said in shock, "What's going on?"
?? "While King Wei was returning to King Wei's mansion, he was suddenly attacked by an assassin and was shot in the leg. If his guards hadn't defended him desperately, he might not have survived." The **** said.
Empress Changsun was a little relieved when she heard the words, at least King Wei's life was still alive, she thought to herself that it was a blessing but a misfortune never comes singly, at the same time, her brows were furrowed, and a bad thought rose in her heart, "Where is the prince?" ?”
?? "Go back to your mother, His Royal Highness is still handling government affairs in the East Palace." The **** said.
With a slight nod, Empress Changsun said to the concubines, "You all go away. I won't stop you now, but the ugly words are ahead. When the emperor returns to Chang'an, he finds that you have all run away. Now, you should think about the consequences."
??All the concubines dispersed after hearing the words, Concubine Yang also wanted to leave, but at this moment Empress Changsun held her back and said, "Sister, wait a minute."
??Concubine Yang stopped, looked at Empress Changsun and said, "What else is there for you, Your Majesty?"
Empress Changsun sighed, and said: "The emperor is besieged in Huaiyuan, and it is almost impossible to break through. If something happens to the emperor, I will go with the emperor, but my sister, Datang can't die like this. Right now, in my opinion, If the city of Chang'an is destroyed, only Min'er can retain the royal blood and restore the Tang Dynasty in the future. So, sister, you should leave Chang'an with the prince and princess in the palace and go to Yizhou for a while. If the emperor is safe and sound, Naturally, you will be able to come back, if..." At this point, Empress Changsun was still in tears, and the strength she had just shown in front of the concubine disappeared.
?? "Empress, you should be the one who takes the prince and princess away, how can you let me go!" Concubine Yang said.
Empress Changsun has her own ideas for doing this. Concubine Yang is Li Yin's biological mother. Although she is the mother of a country, she may not be as good at speaking as Concubine Yang. There is another problem that worries him the most, " My sister also heard what the **** said just now, I am still in Chang'an, they have already started to fight for the throne, if I leave, I don't know what will become of Chang'an, so I have to stay."
Concubine Yang was born in the emperor's house, so she naturally understood what Empress Changsun meant. Just after the news of Li Shimin's siege came out, some people had already started to feel restless. When she heard the news, her intuition was the same as Empress Changsun. They all thought it was the crown prince's work, because the only one who could compete with him for the throne in Chang'an now was King Wei, and once Huaiyuan City was destroyed, the ministers would definitely support a new king. After all, a country cannot live without a king.
In Wei Wangfu, Li Tai was lying on the bed, with cold sweat on his forehead, and two imperial doctors were treating him for the arrow wound, "His Royal Highness, I guess this must be done by the crown prince. Now the emperor's life is in danger at any time. The minister plans to let the crown prince ascend the throne, and only waits for the day when Huaiyuan City is destroyed, and now only His Highness can contend with him in Chang'an City."
"What's the use of saying this? Hurry up and transfer all the dead soldiers into the city. If this continues, my life will be gone." Li Tai said through gritted teeth. I'm afraid it will pass through the chest.
??Zhang Liang said with a sneer: "Don't worry, Your Highness, I have already made preparations. These dead soldiers have already entered the city, and they can listen to His Highness's orders at any time."
Li Tai gasped because of the pain, and he said to Chai Lingwu: "You go back to the army now, control the army, and be at my disposal at any time, Li Chengqian, you are too cruel, you forced me." At this moment, Li Tai understands that he and Li Chengqian can no longer be kind, either you die or I die.
A smile appeared on Zhang Liang's face when he heard the words. He was waiting for this day. If he could help Li Tai to the throne, then he would be the first person under Li Tai. Why did he have to look at Changsun Wuji's face every day? While thinking about it, a voice sounded outside the door, "The empress is here!"
