Chang'an, Tai Chi Hall.

The precious porcelain vases in the palace were all smashed to pieces.

Li Shimin cursed with anger on his face:"Cui family of Qinghe, Cui family of Qinghe! How dare you insult me ​​like this! I will immediately mobilize my army and crush the Cui family!"

Beside him, Changsun Wuji said in a deep voice:"King Qin Don't be angry! The Cui family's disciples are all over the world, and they all have their clansmen and disciples in the courts, counties and counties. Once you touch the Cui family, it will affect the whole body!"

These days, Li Shimin has been working with the Guanlong Group , Qiwang of the Five Surnames and the Shandong nobles to communicate.

Let them come forward and portray Li Changqing as a militaristic tyrant who loves killing.

Almost all of these aristocratic families supported warlords and princes during the turmoil in the late Sui Dynasty.

Li Changqing swept through enemies from all directions and swept through the world's princes, completely making those aristocratic families hold grudges.

Therefore, most of the aristocratic families readily agreed to Li Shimin's request for cooperation and expressed their willingness to throw dirt on Li Changqing and slander his personal reputation.

Some aristocratic families who were afraid of Li Changqing's reputation and did not dare to be enemies with him also politely refused.

Only the Cui family of Qinghe secretly revealed that Li Shimin was of Xianbei descent and was not qualified to be a Han nationality.

Although they have grudges with Li Changqing, they are internal grudges within the nation.

Instead of letting Li Shimin inherit thousands of miles of land, it would be better to let Li Changqing, the one-word king, rule the world.

Therefore, Li Shimin was so angry that he flew into a rage.

After drinking all the tea in the cup, Li Shimin took a deep breath and tried his best to calm down his mood.

"This king will definitely wipe out all the disciples and clan members of the Qinghe Cui family all over the world, and then wipe them out." The

Qinghe Cui family has always looked down on the Li and Tang royal family.

In history, Li Shimin wanted to marry the Qinghe Cui family several times, but they always failed They were rejected.

They believed that the Li Tang royal family had Hu blood and their blood was not noble. They would rather marry their daughter to Cheng Yaojin than marry the royal family!

Li Shimin was also furious, but there was nothing he could do against Cui.

In the end, Cui One family still gave birth to eight prime ministers in the entire Tang Dynasty!

The influence of the thousand-year-old family is evident!

Even the emperor who is in charge of the world has to be afraid!

Li Shimin looked at Changsun Wuji and asked:"The auxiliary machine has been It's been eight days, and there's still no news about Pei Yuanqing and the others?"

Hearing this, Changsun Wuji's face suddenly darkened and he said solemnly:

"King Qin, before Wuji entered the palace, had just received a tip-off that a thousand elite soldiers of the Xuanjia Army, as well as Pei Yuanqing and Shan Xiongxin, had all died in Wenfeng Mountain in Lanling.

A large cemetery was found at the scene, where the bodies of King Wu's fifty personal guards were buried.

Among them, Luo Shixin was nowhere to be seen. The attempt to assassinate King Wu and seize the imperial seal was a complete failure.

Although the thousands of Xuanjia soldiers who died in the battle have never shown their faces, the armor they wore was Jiangnan Daofu soldiers' armor.

However, King Wu would definitely be aware of the ability to mobilize such an elite division and the three generals Pei Yuanqing, Luo Shixin, and Shan Xiongxin."

I had just been insulted by the Cui family of Qinghe, and I heard such horrible news.

Li Shimin's face was so gloomy that he shook his fist in the air angrily.

He cursed:"Damn it! hateful! Such a battle actually failed!"

More than a thousand soldiers who were specially trained to kill the enemy in battle, plus three unparalleled generals, could not even keep Li Changqing, who only had fifty personal guards!

This was beyond Li Shimin and Changsun Wuji's expectations.

In their hearts, no matter how brave Li Changqing is, facing Luo Shixin who is comparable to Li Yuanba, Pei Yuanqing who is said to be no weaker than Yuwen Chengdu, plus the original general Shan Xiongxin of Wagang Village and a thousand elite dead soldiers, he will not be able to do it anyway. There is no way to survive!

Who would have known that except for Luo Shixin who was missing, the rest of the troops on our side were wiped out! The imperial seal was not captured, and Li Changqing did not die.

The continuous bad news and blows made Li Shimin feel a wave of pain in his heart. He was extremely angry, but couldn't find a place to vent, which made him feel extremely uncomfortable.

Changsun Wuji said:"King Qin, the consequences of this failed assassination will be very serious as mentioned before.

Once King Wu suspects you, King Qin, we can no longer deal with King Wu secretly like before.

But to stand on the bright side and confront him head-on. Judging from the current situation, we are at an absolute disadvantage."

After finishing speaking, Changsun Wuji and Li Shimin fell into silence at the same time.

Neither of them said a word for a long time.

Their hearts had sunk to the bottom.

"newspaper——"

Suddenly a guard came in to report

"Report to the King of Qin that an angel from Youzhou arrived at the King of Qin's Mansion and issued King Wu's decree."

When Li Shimin and Changsun Wuji heard this, their faces changed. They looked at each other and saw panic in each other's eyes. After the guard went down, Li Shimin said with a slight panic:"Auxiliary machine, he won't have suspected me. The king is on his head! Changsun

Wuji looked solemn and said:"This possibility cannot be ruled out, but everything must wait until King Qin goes to the palace to receive King Wu's imperial edict before we can analyze and judge.""

Li Shimin said:"The auxiliary machine will go with me."

……

Prince Qin’s Mansion!

After forcing his father into prison, Li Shimin lived, ate, and lived in Taiji Hall and rarely returned to the Prince of Qin's Mansion.

Although he did not dare to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor because he was afraid of the army under Li Changqing's command, he had replaced Li Yuan in supervising the country and managed all government affairs.

Although he was still the King of Qin in name, he actually exercised the rights of the emperor.

The angel who was waiting at the Prince of Qin's Mansion saw Li Shimin arriving and did not exchange any greetings with him. He directly took out the imperial edict.

Li Shimin, Changsun Wuji and others all bent down and bowed, waiting for the imperial edict.

In the Tang Dynasty, and even in the Song Dynasty, ordinary people and officials did not need to kneel when receiving imperial edicts.

Kneeling down was practiced during the Zhu Yuanzhang period. In order to strengthen the emperor's majesty, he ordered to kneel before the imperial edict.

The angel read:"Under the sect, the foundation of the world, I have been following the spring destiny of Haotian. The edict says: Pei Yuanqing, the third son of General Pei Renji of the East Palace Zuotong, assassinated me on Wenfeng Mountain in the northern suburbs of Lanling. This is also the crime of genocide! Order Qin King Li Shimin , destroy the nine Pei clans quickly! January 15th, the second year of Wude."

Li Shimin took the imperial edict and quickly took his eldest son Wuji to the study to talk.

He said anxiously:"Auxiliary machine, what should we do?"

Changsun Wuji said:"King Wu specially sent an edict to King Qin to kill the nine Pei clans. It is obvious that he has doubted King Qin. This may be a To test, once King Qin disobeys King Wu’s imperial edict or deliberately delays his actions, his fault will be exposed. Therefore,……"

"Therefore, I must kill the nine Pei clans!"

Li Shimin took over Changsun Wuji's words, and he felt a buzzing in his mind.

Li Jiancheng was deposed, and as the general of Zuotong of the East Palace, Pei Renji, who was in charge of the Suwei, was attracted by him.

Now, he let Pei Renji's three sons Pei Yuanqing failed to assassinate Li Changqing, but instead brought about the disaster of genocide.

Once he follows the imperial edict of King Wu and annihilates the nine Pei clans, then the officials in the court who were attracted by him will definitely feel extremely chilled. With

King Wu's imperial edict, you Li Shimin, who had already overseen the country's exercise of the emperor's power, was extremely decisive in killing the nine generals. Not only did he not resist the decree, but he even refused to delay it!

In this case, why should everyone follow you instead of choosing the more powerful King Wu!

Thinking of all these things, coupled with the fact that he had suffered one after another in the Tai Chi Hall, Li Shimin couldn't help but get angry. He raised his head and spit out a mouthful of blood, and then fell to the ground and passed out!
