But things are different now! His Majesty has passed away! I don't know who the military token was given to!
Without Li Shimin's order, the only way to mobilize the army was to rely on military tokens.
But the problem was that he didn't have the military token! He searched the entire palace but couldn't find it.
Looking at the massive army below, Changsun Wuji realized that His Majesty might have given all the military commands to the prince.
A cold sweat immediately broke out on his forehead, trickling down his cheeks and soaking his collar. The defenders on the city wall had no morale at all. Their eyes were filled with fear, their bodies trembled slightly, and they seemed to be unable to hold their weapons steady.
Those noble families have their own private armies, but it’s too late to mobilize them now!
Fear is contagious. Even veterans who have experienced many battles are not as relaxed as they were at the beginning.
I thought we had backup, but after all this time, there were only these people on the city wall. How can we play this game?
"Why hasn't the battalion of Qianniu Guards I mobilized arrived yet?"
Changsun Wuji looked at his family generals, his eyes filled with anger and anxiety.
"grown ups!"
The family general smiled bitterly.
"It was originally agreed that they would come here under your orders, but I don't know what happened! They simply refused to let me in."
After hearing what the family general said, Changsun Wuji almost fainted from anger. His body shook and his eyes were full of disbelief.
Before he could make a decision, he heard a shout from the city gate downstairs.
"I am Li Tai, the current King of Wei! I command you to open the city gates! Let the emperor's army in!"
The sound was clear and loud, standing out in the tense atmosphere.
Changsun Wuji listened to Li Tai's cry and closed his eyes helplessly. He knew that everything was over. He had lost, completely.
Li Tai watched the city gate slowly open, and when the majestic military formation came into view, he was still very panicked. His heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and a trace of fear flashed in his eyes, fearing that his brother would send him away.
It wasn't until today that he realized that none of these aristocratic families were reliable.
I guess I was plotted against before, but luckily my elder brother didn't fight back, and I didn't listen to their plots against my elder brother.
Otherwise, I would really be treated as a pawn and played around with by these aristocratic families.
Thinking of this, Li Tai felt relieved and he breathed a sigh of relief.
He stood respectfully at the gate of Chang'an City, "Your humble servant congratulates you on ascending the throne! Long live the emperor!"
Then he knelt on the ground and bowed his head gently. His movements were pious and respectful.
Li Tai took the lead and asked the soldiers guarding the city behind him to put down their weapons one by one and kneel on the ground with Li Tai, "Long live the emperor!"
One after another, people in Chang'an City were led to kneel on the ground. The scene was spectacular, like dominoes, one after another.
……
The entire city of Chang'an was paying homage to the new emperor.
"Your Majesty, was I right? The city gate is still open." Mr. Qi's mouth curled up slightly, and his eyes flashed with an unconcealable smug light.
At this time, the wind outside the city gate was whistling, making his clothes rustle, but it could not blow away the smile on his face.
He slowly raised his hand, which was bony yet full of strength, and gently stroked the beard he had grown for a long time.
Mr. Qi was filled with joy and said, "Your Majesty, I have waited so long for this day. Years of planning have finally paid off. I am an official fan, but I have never found a king I can get along with. It is not easy to meet you, Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty, please give me a high position when the time comes. After all, it is my honor to be your successor."
As Mr. Qi spoke, he narrowed his eyes. A scene of himself wearing gorgeous official uniform and accepting the worship of everyone in the court appeared in his mind. His smile became brighter and the anticipation in his eyes almost overflowed.
