Tang Dynasty: Father, if you don't rebel, I will!

"Since you refuse, then your grandson can only ask that Your Majesty pass away!"

As soon as Li Chengqian finished speaking, a murderous intent flashed in his eyes, as if he was about to rip a hole in Li Yuan's body on the spot.

Li Shimin and Yuchi Gong, as well as Li Yuan and Pei Ji who were under control, were all instantly shocked.

"Chengqian! Stop!"

"call!"

Despite Li Shimin's obstruction, the spear, carrying a chilling killing intent, pierced past the side of Li Yuan's crown.

The metallic clang above his head instantly disheveled Li Yuan's hair and pulled him out of his rage.

He was filled with shock and anger, but Yuchi Gong pulled him behind him.

Even Yuchi Gong hadn't expected that this young prince, when he went mad, would be so ruthless and unrecognizable to even his own family.

After killing his fourth uncle, Prince Qi, Li Yuanji, he now even dares to kill his grandfather, Emperor Li Yuan, without hesitation.

Li Chengqian's eyes widened.

“Father, you and I are now considered traitors to the nation for all eternity! Even so, why not seize the opportunity and wipe out the entire court and the country!”

“The noble families who are not convinced by the Qin Prince’s Mansion will surely attack us. However, most of the imperial army came from the ranks of those who fought alongside you, Father, and there are also fierce generals like Uncle Yuchi and Uncle Cheng. Why don’t my father and I create a new world together?!”

Li Chengqian's words became increasingly outrageous, while Li Yuan and Pei Ji grew more and more alarmed as they listened.

This grandson of the emperor, when he went mad, not only wanted to massacre the disloyal members of the royal family, but also to wipe out all the aristocratic families through barbaric means.

this......

Li Yuan's heart pounded wildly. At that moment, looking at Yuchi Gong and his second son, Prince Qin Li Shimin, who were blocking his way, he suddenly realized that obediently handing over power today might be his only chance to survive.

If they don't agree, I'm afraid even if the second son wants to stop them, he probably won't be able to.

Li Shimin was also alarmed by Li Chengqian's words.

He never imagined that his eldest son, who had always been described by his teachers as "gentle and refined," "humble and polite," and "having the demeanor of a gentleman," was actually a man of great character.

However, now that he has been driven to the brink of despair and lost all his reputation, he has actually gone mad to this extent.

"Father!"

Li Shimin became anxious.

Father, please obey me quickly, or I won't be able to stop Chengqian!

This kid is incredibly strong, and judging by his appearance, he seems genuinely insane and truly intends to send this imperial grandfather to the underworld.

Covered in blood and gritting his teeth, he looked exactly like a wolf driven to the brink of despair.

Li Yuan saw all this and could only sigh in the end.

"Fine! The palace guards are under your command, Shimin... I..."

He glanced at the severed heads of his two sons, who died with their eyes wide open, and then closed his eyes in anguish.

"I'm tired..."

Upon hearing this, both Yuchi Gong and Li Shimin breathed a sigh of relief.

Li Chengqian seemed somewhat dissatisfied, his eyes constantly scanning his grandfather.

If I remember correctly, even after he became the retired emperor, this grandfather still wouldn't stop, and he gave birth to many uncles and aunts for me.

These will all need to be supported by the royal treasury in the future.

These expenses, if saved and used to develop agricultural settlements in the north, train cavalry, or build ships to conquer the Japanese pirates, would seem more appropriate...

Li Yuan felt a chill run down his spine under the gaze of this rebellious grandson of the emperor.

He hurriedly pulled his best friend Pei Ji and headed towards the interior of the cruise ship.

......

With the Crown Prince and the Prince of Qi killed, Prince Qin, Li Shimin, seized control of the palace guards.

At this point, the Xuanwu Gate Incident was a foregone conclusion. The next step was to coerce the current emperor into obediently appointing the Prince of Qin as crown prince, and then obediently abdicating the throne...

"Chengqian, what's the situation at Xuanwu Gate?"

Li Shimin asked with some concern.

At that very moment, Hou Junji, who had not received any news for a long time, quickly rode over.

The moment he saw Li Shimin and the imperial guard token in the other's hand, a strong joy instantly flashed in his eyes.

"Your Highness! The mission is accomplished!"

Li Chengqian ignored his "indecisive" father and kept his eyes fixed on his grandfather, the Emperor, who was heading towards the Wude Hall under the protection of the Qin Prince's guards under the command of Yuchi Gong.

thinking in mind.

He knew that his father, who ultimately cared about his reputation, would never kill his own father.

But, is it possible to castrate him?

"Hurry, hurry up, go faster..."

Li Yuan's steps quickened at this moment.

"What is the current situation at Xuanwu Gate?" Li Shimin asked Hou Junji.

Upon hearing this, Hou Junji glanced at Li Chengqian's back and then became excited.

He then proceeded to recount what had just happened at Xuanwu Gate.

"hiss!"

Li Shimin gasped in shock.

"You mean, Chengqian? Chengqian fought against Xue Wanche, Feng Li, and Xie Shufang, three of the Crown Prince's adjutants, and even defeated them?"

If Li Shimin hadn't known that Hou Junji wasn't the type to talk nonsense on such matters, he probably would have doubted whether the person in front of him was questioning his own judgment.

Hou Junji nodded, recalling Li Chengqian's exquisite and invincible spear skills during their previous battle.

I couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive.

“Your Highness, how could I talk nonsense about such a thing? Although Your Highness had Lü Shiheng and Jing Junhong by your side at the time, their martial arts skills were still lacking. They not only failed to help Your Highness much on several occasions, but also almost got themselves killed by Feng Li and Xie Shufang.”

"It was all thanks to Your Highness's timely rescue..."

Li Shimin: "......"

Let's not even talk about what's happening in the palace right now.

The commotion at Xuanwu Gate was considerable, and by the time the battle ended, almost all the officials, big and small, in Chang'an knew what had happened.

And the same.

Qin Wangfu.

"We won! We won!"

"Your Highness, Lord Fang, Lord Du, the Prince has successfully taken control of the palace! The Crown Prince and Prince Qi have been executed for their rebellion!"

"The prince and the heir are both without worry!"
