Traveling through Du He, Li Chengqian's rebellion begins

what!

Why are the people from the Censorate so tough?

Logically speaking, shouldn't the people from the Censorate ask them nicely to let one or two people in to see the prince?

Why do the people from the Censorate want to kill people right away?

Li Renjian quickly said, "Cui Yushi, what exactly do you want to do by leading thousands of palace soldiers to our palace?"

"If you have something to say, you can go to the mansion to meet His Royal Highness and explain the matter clearly."

"Why use knives and guns?"

Cui Shenji glanced at him coldly and ignored him, but read aloud.

"One breath!"

"Two breaths!"

"Three breaths!"

The group of soldiers blocking the door were originally a little panicked, but when they saw the arrogant attitude of the people from the Censorate, they all showed sneers on their faces.

People from Guannei Road have all been to the battlefield, so how could they be scared?

Back then, they joined the army to destroy the Eastern Turks, but these young boys were probably still playing in the mud at home!

Several burly middle-aged men stood at the gate, holding their swords high and shouting.

"Get lost, you little brat!"

"With us here today, you won't be able to even take a single step into the palace!"

"If you don't want to die, get out!"

The group shouted loudly, hoping to scare away the young official from the Censorate.

"Hahaha!"

The soldiers and tenants standing on both sides saw that the people from the Censorate and the palace soldiers were unmoved, and they all raised their heads and burst into laughter.

The bet was right!

These guys are just trying to intimidate them!

The prince has not committed treason. If this official from the Censorate dares to order action against them, they will definitely go to Chang'an to file a complaint with the emperor.

The person who will be in the wrong at that time will be this young Imperial Censor!

"hehe."

Cui Shenji saw that after three breaths, this group of people were still blocking the door, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Brother Du is right. To deal with this tough nut, Li Shenfu, Prince of Xiangyi, we have to teach him a lesson.

It seems that there will be no way today without blood!

Cui Shenji turned and bowed to Cheng Wuting: "General Cheng, the rest is up to you!"

"it is good."

Cheng Wuting nodded grimly.

He raised his lance high and gave a cold order, "Follow me into the palace. Anyone who blocks our path will be killed! Anyone who raises a sword will be killed!"

As he said this, he took the lead and rushed towards the spacious gate with a lance in hand.

The faces of the soldiers blocking the door changed drastically, but the war horses had already rushed to them and it was too late to leave.

"Oh!"

The group of people fell to the sides under the sweep of the horse lance.

Some people who wanted to resist with knives were pierced through the body by spears from the cavalry behind them.

Li Renjian looked at the scene in front of him with a dull expression, his face pale as he murmured.

"Kill...kill someone!"

"You...you really dare to do it?"

He never thought that the people from the Censorate would dare to be so overbearing, and without giving them a chance to quibble, they directly ordered the action.

As more than thirty foolish men were killed, the remaining soldiers and tenants hurriedly dropped their swords.

They lay on the ground and begged for mercy loudly.

"surrender!"

"We surrender!"

The trace of bloodiness that had originally risen in Guanzhong also disappeared under the strong smell of blood.

How could they resist thousands of armored and spear-wielding cavalrymen with only three-foot-long swords?

Cui Shenji said coldly: "Don't cry until you see the coffin!"

He didn't want to hurt these civilians, but who would have thought that they were like a group of vicious dogs and couldn't enter the mansion without killing a few people.

"Detain them all!"

After Cui Shenji gave orders to the palace soldiers behind him, he rode his horse directly into the Prince of Xiangyi's mansion.

In the lobby.

Li Shenfu and his group of guards came back and roared angrily, "How dare you barge in without my order? Are you planning a rebellion?"

"Get out!"

audacious in the extreme!

He is a first-rank prince and a core member of the Li clan. How dare these soldiers disrespect him!

Even if Du He came in person, he wouldn't dare to treat him like this!

Cheng Wuting held the silver fish talisman and said solemnly, "Right Army General Cheng Wuting, under the orders of Yongzhou Governor, has come to assist Imperial Secretary Cui Shenji in arresting you and bringing you back to Chang'an for trial!"

"Everyone, kneel down with your hands behind your head, or else don't blame me for being brutal!"

what!

Make them kneel down with their hands behind their heads?

What a joke!

Li Shenfu said sternly, "Boy, why don't you make me kneel down and try?"

"Can you bear it?"

This is really a rebellion against Tiangang. A group of ministers dared to make this prince kneel down. They really don’t know their own weight!

The rest of the people did not dare to disobey Cheng Wuting's order. They all knelt on the ground with their hands on their heads.

Just now, there were bursts of screams coming from outside the gate, and the spears in the hands of these soldiers were still dripping with blood. They didn't dare to gamble whether these desperate criminals would dare to take action.

Cheng Wuting strode to the side of Li Shenfu and kicked him on the back of his foot.

"Crack~"

Li Shenfu knelt directly on the ground with both knees.

He wanted to struggle, but Cheng Wuting held his shoulder with one hand, preventing him from moving.

Li Shenfu said with a look of humiliation, "Traitor, how dare you bully me? When I arrive in Chang'an, I will definitely file a complaint with His Majesty!"

"Just wait for me, my king!"

He had lived for 70 years and no one had ever humiliated him like this.

Cheng Wuting sneered, "You'd better think about it carefully. Have you done anything that would anger God and people in recent years? Don't let your life end up in vain!"

Just then, Choi Sun-ki strode into the lobby.

He gave the order in a deep voice, "Imprison these people and their families. After I have interrogated them, I will decide the situation accordingly!"

Li Shenfu's eyes were red as he asked, "Cui Shenji, how dare you put me in jail?"

"Believe it or not, I will kill you!"

It’s really deceiving!

These ministers dare to shit on the heads of the Li royal family!

Cui Shenji sneered, "Imprison the Prince of Xiangyi in the coldest, dampest, dirtiest prison, and only give him two bowls of porridge a day!"

What a joke!

He is a direct descendant of the Qinghe Cui family, the number one lackey of Duke Hanguo... a close friend. How could he be afraid of a vassal king who is hated by His Majesty?

Will he still have face if this gets out?

Moreover, according to the plan of Brother Du and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the Crown Prince will ascend to the throne this year.

By then, even Your Majesty will become a powerless emperor, so how can he care about these vassal kings?

Cheng Wuting gave the order in a deep voice, "Follow Censor Cui's orders. Imprison these people and their families. Imprison the Prince of Xiangyi in the innermost part of the prison!"

When Li Shenfu was taken away by the soldiers, he struggled and shouted frantically.

"You all wait for me!"

"When I arrive in Chang'an, I will report you to His Majesty!"

"Don't even think about having an easy time, Du He!"

Cui Shenji and Cheng Wuting remained unmoved after hearing Li Shenfu's threats.

They began to work in an orderly manner according to their respective responsibilities.

The situation was the same for the other 34 princes. They gathered their troops to resist investigation, but were eventually attacked by the government soldiers and became obedient.

...

Changan.

Duke Zhao's Mansion.

In the side hall.

Zhang Sun Wuji said excitedly, "Everyone, according to the news sent back by the spies, those palace soldiers and vassal kings in Yongzhou have taken action!"

"These princes will go head-to-head with Du He. Du He is in trouble!"
