Tang Dynasty, I can lead troops through ancient and modern times

Chapter 68: Heavenly Khan, Here Comes the Head

"Uncle, my brother is too bold..." Li Zhi looked shocked.

Zhang Sun Wuji's face was solemn: "I really didn't expect that the prince would be so decisive..."

"My Lord, something bad has happened. The mansion has been surrounded by the Crown Prince's troops!"

Zhang Sun Wuji stood up suddenly: "How dare the prince... No, Your Highness the Prince of Jin, please leave immediately, the prince wants to kill you!!"

Li Zhi was shocked when he heard this: "Impossible! Why would you kill me? I didn't do anything!"

Zhang Sun Wuji was so disappointed that he said, "What else do you need to do? Your status as the legitimate son is enough to kill you a hundred times. The Xuanwu Gate Incident is a lesson for us. Leave now!"

After hearing this, Li Zhi's legs became so weak that he couldn't stand up, and his face was full of fear.

Seeing this, Changsun Wuji quickly ordered: "Quick, take Prince Jin away, quickly!!"

But Changsun Wuji realized it too late. Under the charge of the Black Armor Army, the gate only held for a moment before it was knocked open.

Li Chengqian had already arrived in front of the two men with his troops.

Li Jing rode forward and said, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has ordered that His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin come to the palace to meet him."

Zhang Sun Wuji glared at Li Jing: "Li Jing, how dare you!!"

Li Jing sneered, "How dare you disobey the order of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

Zhang Sun Wuji turned to look at Li Chengqian and said, "Your Highness, please forgive him when you can. The Prince of Jin is your brother. He has no grudge against you. There is no need to make things worse."

Li Chengqian stared at Changsun Wuji expressionlessly: "Uncle, why do you say that? I just want to bring Zhinu into the palace. Uncle, did you misunderstand?"

"you!!"

Changsun Wuji was so frightened by Li Chengqian's gaze that he dared not look him in the eye.

Looking at the Black Armor Army behind Li Chengqian, he sighed and turned around...

"Prince Jin, you...take care of yourself!"

"No, uncle, save me, save me..."

Changsun Wuji waved his sleeves and shook off Li Zhi's hand that was holding him.

The prince has become powerful and his authority is even greater than that of the King of Qin back then.

The key is that he has the approval of His Majesty, and now he dares to kill the King of Wei and capture the King of Jin so blatantly.

Even as his uncle, he has to avoid his sharp edge.

The crown prince's ascension to the throne is a foregone conclusion, and he has to consider the future of the Changsun family.

Therefore, King Jin must give up!

"Chi Nu, let's go see our father together!"

Li Chengqian stepped forward, grabbed Li Zhi's hand, and took him away.

A series of changes in Chang'an City spread quickly under the cover of night.

Fang Yiai knelt in front of Fang Xuanling and said, "Dad, I don't want to die."

Fang Xuanling sighed heavily: "If I had known this would happen, I would not have done it in the first place..."

In the Wude Hall, Li Shimin slowly woke up after being rescued by the imperial physician.

"Your Majesty, the Crown Prince has arrived..."

"Cheng Qian is here..."

"Cheng Qian.....Qingque!!!"

Li Shimin sat up suddenly, but what he saw was a figure holding a head and holding a person with the other hand.

"Your Majesty, the King of Wei is plotting a rebellion, and I have sent troops to suppress it. Here is the King of Wei's head, please have a look."

Li Tai's head rolled to Li Shimin's feet.

Li Shimin stared blankly, his eyes full of fear and disbelief.

"Li Chengqian, why, why do you have to do it so ruthlessly, why!!"

The extreme emotional fluctuations made Li Shimin calm down, and he stared coldly at Li Chengqian in front of him.

"If you can do it, why can't I? Besides, I am just suppressing the rebellion, while you are openly plotting treason."

"I haven't killed all my brothers, and I don't intend to force you to abdicate. I'm not as cruel as you. I'm not as good as you..."

Li Shimin pointed at Li Chengqian and said, "Release Zhinu."

Li Chengqian, however, kept talking to himself: "Li Tai is plotting a rebellion to gain power. With his close relationship with the aristocratic families, your policy of weakening the aristocratic families cannot be implemented."

"Add to that the dislike of Li Tai by the military and Shandong nobles, and Li Tai's political stance could no longer hold up."

"But Zhinu is different. He usually doesn't show off, but he's not stupid. Given what Tian Khan did back then, would he leave behind such a disaster?"

Li Chengqian looked at Li Zhi with a sneer.

Emperor Gaozong of Tang was the culprit for the corruption of the government, the usurpation of the throne by women, and the massacre of royal family members.

You say he contributed a lot?

It is undeniable that he has made certain contributions.

But these achievements are the political legacy left by Zhenguan.

What outstanding generals has he promoted?

No, they are all old ministers of Zhenguan period.

The key is his indulgence of Wu Zetian.

He also discussed with Shangguan Yi about deposing Empress Wu, but was discovered by Wu Zetian's spies, and he actually put all the blame on others!

He only listens to the good advice from others, but he always says that he is learning from Taizong.

In fact, it is just Chongzhen!

The difference between him and Chongzhen is that one had a large inheritance left by his father, while the other had nothing.

One died at the hands of a woman, and the other died at the hands of a foreign race.

"Waste!" Li Chengqian put the knife on Li Zhi's neck.

"Father, help me..."

Li Shimin took a quick step forward and was about to slap him.

But Li Chengqian raised his hand and blocked it: "Okay, very good."

Phew~~~

Under Li Shimin's close gaze, Li Zhi's head left his body, with tears and prayers still on his face.

"Child slave! My son!"

Li Shimin had completely lost his spirit, looking like an old man who had lost his son in his old age. He knelt on the ground, holding Li Zhi's head and crying bitterly.

Li Chengqian stood there and looked down at Li Shimin: "Even if you have many descendants, no one is like me. You have no choice."

"History has proven that it is not because you have both ability and virtue that you can become a monarch, but that you will have both ability and virtue once you become a monarch. This is what you told me, father!"

Li Shimin raised his head suddenly: "I am not your father, I don't have a son like you."

Li Chengqian laughed: "Because of the Xuanwu Gate Incident, you don't want to leave a bad name in the history books, so you let Li Tai follow your old path and let me, the crown prince, seek my own death."

"You, Li Shimin, are still a famous emperor throughout history. Now I will help you by killing all of your mother's sons. Why are you still not satisfied?"

"Isn't this what you taught me, Father?"

"Shut up, shut up! I don't have a son like you. Get out of here."

Li Chengqian looked at a woman kneeling not far away.

"Are you Wu Mei?"

Wu Mei raised her head in fear and said, "Your Highness, I am Wu Mei."

Li Chengqian nodded, holding the knife and slowly walked forward: "I don't need to say anything about you and Li Zhi!"

"Your Majesty!" Wu Mei called out to Li Shimin in horror for help.

But Li Shimin had already fallen into confusion by this time. He was holding Li Zhi's head and shaking it left and right. He could no longer hear Wu Mei's call.

"Any last words?" Li Chengqian stared at Wu Mei.

Wu Mei knew she was doomed, so she stood up and glared at Li Chengqian: "Fuck you, Li!"

"Have the guts!"

Pfft!

The reign of an empress came to an end, and her head rolled to Li Chengqian's feet.
