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

The Guanlong gentry were clearly divided into two factions and were constantly arguing with each other.

Li Shimin knew that even if some people here stood on the side of the common people, they were only saying that for the sake of him, the emperor.

It is to stand on the side of the royal family, rely on the royal family, and continue their aristocratic life.

But it is undeniable that these people still have a bottom line and are also the targets of Li Shimin's pursuit.

As for those who keep saying that the emperor and the aristocratic families share the world, they are not stupid either.

But they had to make their position clear and make the emperor give up his unrealistic fantasies.

They were confident that Li Shimin would not dare to fall out with the powerful families.

Because the lesson of the Sui Dynasty is right before our eyes...

Changsun Wuji and the other two just watched the quarrel in the Wude Hall in silence.

Li Shimin was also paying attention to the three people.

As the representative of the Guanlong gentry, Changsun Wuji's attitude had a decisive effect.

But he just didn't say a word, and Li Shimin was not anxious.

Fang Xuanling and Chu Suiliang represented the emerging forces that rose with the Tang Dynasty. Although they were not as powerful as the aristocratic families, they also had great influence in the court.

Most of the officials who also remained silent were also from these emerging forces.

As soon as these people lean towards the royal family, the balance will tilt.

Therefore, the attitudes of these three people are crucial.

Changsun Wuji and the other two felt Li Shimin's gaze and knew it was time to leave.

"I am willing to follow your majesty till death!!"

Changsun Wuji took the lead and walked out, crawling at Li Shimin's feet.

Seeing this, Fang Xuanling and Chu Suiliang hurried out and knelt in front of Li Shimin.

Soon after, the emerging forces and officials who had originally supported the royal family also surrendered.

The Wude Hall suddenly became quiet.

When looking at the strength comparison of those who were still standing, it turned out that there were only seven or eight people left standing.

Li Shimin turned his gaze to them.

this......

"I swear to follow your majesty till death!!"

Li Shimin still had no expression on his face, just staring at the ministers who were kneeling down.

Although the Guanlong forces still had different opinions, they chose to surrender under the general trend.

Whether you accept it sincerely or compromise temporarily.

These are not important, what is important is their statement.

Li Shimin just wanted an attitude, an attitude that would show his position to the Shandong gentry.

On the other side, the East Palace’s troops have already assembled.

It was still the 5,000 soldiers under Su Dingfang.

Cheng Yaojin found a red flag from somewhere and stood beside Li Chengqian, leaning against the flagpole.

Li Chengqian looked at the generals and said, "Follow me, kill people!!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!!!"

The news that the Eastern Palace had mobilized a large number of troops soon reached Li Shimin.

But when Li Shimin learned about it, he had no reaction and continued to look at the ministers who were crawling on the ground.

He was waiting, waiting for his prince to be done with, so as to completely shock these Guanlong nobles.

At the same time, those who were having a secret meeting at Cui Mansion also received the news first.

The meeting ended quickly and everyone fled.

But where can they escape to?

Li Shimin had closed all the gates of Chang'an in advance, and no one was allowed to enter or leave without his imperial order.

After learning that the city gates were closed, these people finally realized the seriousness of the matter.

The Royal Family is about to completely fall out!

Perhaps things have not reached the worst point, and the royal family is not ready to break with the Shandong family.

Perhaps the royal family was only targeting the representatives of the aristocratic families who remained in Chang'an, using their heads to declare the royal family's attitude.

Kill the chicken to scare the monkey! !

Generals such as Li Jing, Cheng Yaojin, and Hou Junji each led a team of soldiers and acted separately.

In the name of arresting the accomplices of King Wei in rebellion, they began to arrest relevant people on a large scale.

The mansions of the Five Surnames and Seven Families in Chang'an and the industries of the major families in Chang'an are all their targets.

You asked if there was any evidence. Li Chengqian said that the Eastern Palace was handling the case and they would capture him first.

As for evidence, there will always be one.

Li Chengqian personally led a troop of soldiers, with Pei Xingjian and Di Renjie accompanying him. Their target was the venue of the secret talks among the noble families, the Qinghe Cui Mansion.

The Qinghe Cui family suffered heavy losses in Chang'an during the last rebellion by King Wei, and could be said to be the family with the weakest defense among all the families.

But as a representative of aristocratic families, it is also the most difficult one to deal with.

After all, the prestige accumulated over thousands of years is there. Without the identity of the crown prince, he really wouldn't be able to control the situation.

Li Chengqian looked at the tightly closed gate of Cui's mansion. Without an imperial decree or knocking on the door, he would just attack directly.

He nodded to the guard beside him.

The guards are still the six original guards. After their physical fitness has been strengthened and with the advantage of one more time traveling, their fighting power is now no less powerful than that of generals like Yuchi Gong.

Six people took out the explosive packs at the same time, lit the fuse and threw them inside with force to scare people first!

Boom boom boom! !

Inside the Cui Mansion, the guards who were on high alert had been holding out behind the door, but were completely stunned by the explosion.

Although they were not affected by the explosion, the noise of the violent explosion was breathtaking and they were scared! !

The head of the Cui Mansion in Chang'an looked at the deep pit blown out in the yard in horror. Around him were thirty death warriors, the last force to protect him.

"Master, what can we do? The whole mansion is surrounded, and the prince is completely ruthless and doesn't even give us a chance to explain ourselves!!"

At this moment, the heavy door was suddenly knocked open from the outside.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out that just two people kicked the door panel away with their feet!

More than a dozen guards behind the door were shocked and flew backwards!

Wild, domineering, and powerful!!!

This is simply not a human being. This is not a power that humans can possess!

Li Chengqian waved his hand lightly, and the soldiers of the Eastern Palace quickly rushed into the mansion.

He himself walked slowly at the back under the protection of the guards.

The soldiers of the Eastern Palace quickly took control of the entire Cui Mansion and surrounded the person in charge of the Cui Mansion and the thirty death warriors.

"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. I wonder why His Royal Highness has come here today?"

Li Chengqian stood there and looked at the man. Di Renjie, as the spokesperson, read in his voice-changing tone.

"After investigation, we found that Cui was involved in the King of Wei's rebellion. The evidence is irrefutable. We will arrest him immediately and bring him to justice."

Thirty assassins immediately blocked the way, but the head of Cui Mansion walked to the front and bowed, saying, "May I ask Your Highness, what evidence do you have to prove that I participated in the rebellion of the King of Wei?"

Di Renjie wanted to say something else but was stopped by Li Chengqian.

"I said yes."

"you!!"

Li Chengqian looked at the guards and said, "Why are you still standing there? Anyone who dares to resist will be killed without mercy."

"Yes!!"

The head of Cui Mansion stopped pretending and directly ordered his soldiers to kill the enemy with bows and crossbows! !

Chop chop chop!!

Thirty crossbow arrows were fired instantly, but unfortunately they were blocked by the fully armed soldiers of the Eastern Palace with their shields...
