The First National Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1018

He thought he would immediately launch a siege.

Based on his understanding of Li Yuan, you don't really have much of a brain.

He's nothing more than a few sycophantic advisors.

Otherwise, this guy wouldn't even know how he died.

Xu Tian allowed Li Yuan's henchmen to roam freely within the military camp.

This would make him believe that all the military layouts were real, and even the city defense map had no flaws.

Only then will Li Yuan lower all his guard and come to attack the city.

Xu Tian can then capture them all in one fell swoop.

Thinking of this, Xu Tian became much kinder to Lu Jinyang.

It's worth noting that she played a significant role in all of this.

"Your Highness, it's so late, aren't you going to rest?"

Lu Jinyang had just brought in a bowl of nourishing soup from outside when he saw Xu Tian still reviewing memorials, so he asked him with concern.

Xu Tian nodded, then moved his arm.

He found that he had been holding the same position for too long, which caused his arm to go numb.

He then moved around, but felt a little uncomfortable.

Lu Jinyang quickly left and came over to help him massage.

"Your Highness, is this pressure just right?"

Xu Tian nodded, indicating his satisfaction.

"It's getting late, you should go and get some rest too, you have to get up early tomorrow."

Xu Tian's tone was full of gentleness, and even when he looked at Lu Jinyang, his eyes were filled with tenderness.

It's impossible to tell that this is how a master treats his servants.

Lu Jinyang lowered his head slightly, his face flushed.

The blush on her face had spread from her cheeks to her ears.

He then lowered his head and left.

Just as Lu Jinyang withdrew, the guards emerged from the shadows.

"Master, is the time ripe now?"

They had been waiting for the right moment to act, waiting for Li Yuan to break in at any time.

That way, they can be put to use.

Xu Tian shook his head directly, "How can the time be ripe if Li Yuan hasn't even attacked? If it weren't for those few cunning strategists under his command, he would have attacked long ago, given his own intelligence."

The guards kept their heads down, and I didn't say anything more.

At first, they all believed that Li Yuan would definitely attack and break in immediately.

It seems that what's stopping him are his few sycophantic advisors.

If it weren't for those few cunning advisors around him, he probably would have already gotten restless.

Since he left, he has never thought of staying quietly in his fiefdom.

They are all determined to reclaim this position.

Xu Tian couldn't help but sigh softly.

Unexpectedly, that position was so tempting, and so many people wanted it.

Because Li Yuan's assassins were always moving freely within the imperial city.

He always believed that no one had discovered him, but to his surprise, no matter where he went every day, there were eyes watching him from a short distance away.

After investigating the area for several days, the assassins concluded that everything matched the military deployment map exactly.

After receiving this news, Li Yuan believed that the military deployment map was genuine.

So he decided on his next plan.

"Since this military deployment map is correct, we can attack Chang'an and capture Li Zhi and Xu Tian alive."

Everyone was greatly encouraged after hearing his words.
