The First National Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 843

Emperor Taizong (Li Er) still felt some remorse for Li Chengqian's death.

Although this matter actually has nothing to do with him?

Xu Tian was assigned by Li Er to escort Li Chengqian through his funeral procession.

His tone was also filled with sadness.

Li Er was indeed sorrowful.

Of her dozen or so sons, two have died and one has become a wanted criminal.

"Your Majesty, please accept my condolences!"

Xu Tian really couldn't find any words of comfort.

The crown prince has now died.

The other princes were even more eager to make their move.

Everyone thought they had a chance.

Li Er was in a gloomy mood, and the fact that he had pretended to be sick left all the princes with lingering fear.

"I never expected that Father was faking his illness. But Li You is a bold fellow, daring to openly rebel."

The tenth prince waved his fan.

He had a teasing look on his face.

Standing before him was the Fourth Prince.

Several people have their own little secrets.

They are very cautious in everything they do.

It was also because of this incident that the Fifth Prince rebelled.

This instilled a sense of awe in them.

But who wouldn't want to be the master of the outside world?

Be the supreme ruler of the world.

"Xu Tian is really decisive. If it weren't for Xu Tian, ​​Li You wouldn't have ended up like this."

"Do you think Xu Tian might have some ulterior motives?"

The fourth prince spoke with a skeptical tone.

The tenth prince snorted coldly.

"Do you really think he would dare to rebel?"

He figured Xu Tian didn't have the guts.

Xu Tian was in charge of escorting Li Chengqian to his funeral.

A heavy feeling settled over me.

He didn't even wait for them to enter the imperial mausoleum.

A hurried voice came from behind.

"Your Highness, as you predicted, the Fifth Prince has once again stormed into the palace, and a fight has broken out at Xuanwu Gate."

The soldier looked anxious as he came to report.

Xu Tian had already guessed that Li You would take this opportunity to rebel.

He believed that if Xu Tian was not in the Forbidden City, he would have an opportunity.

However, Li You is probably dead, and we don't even know how he died.

He had no idea that Xu Tian had already made prior arrangements before he led his troops straight to the palace.

"Oh no, Your Highness, we've fallen into a trap."

The general standing next to the fifth prince seemed somewhat caught off guard.

They never expected that their original plan was to attack the imperial city, but now, as soon as they entered, they were already at a disadvantage.

They had no idea that Xu Tian had actually set up a protective perimeter within the Forbidden City.

They had barely entered when they were surrounded.

Moreover, all of these soldiers were from the Imperial Guard.

The Imperial Guards have always been loyal only to the Emperor.

I will not be controlled by anyone.

Their talents have just stormed into Xuanwu Gate.

They were then surrounded by the Imperial Guards.

The city walls were covered with bows and arrows.

Below them, archers surrounded them in layers.

"Fifth Prince, surrender!"

Standing behind these soldiers, the commander of the Imperial Guard walked up with a solemn expression.

They've already come this far, so how could Li You be willing to surrender?

He roared, "Charge in for me! The first person to break into the Forbidden City will be my marshal!"

As soon as he said that, some fearless individuals actually rushed forward.
