The side hall was quiet for a moment. Li Shimin had made such a guess yesterday, and now it was confirmed. There really must be an ambush to intercept and kill the messenger, and it really must be at Juyuan Bridge.
"To go from Jingzhao to Yijun County in Fangzhou, you should actually go through Sanyuan County. Juyuan Bridge leads to the southwest side of Yijun County, which is the Phoenix Valley area of Yuhua Mountain." Li Shan explained: "So I know that the guards are in Ju Yuanqiao was intercepted and killed. Someone must have tried to cut off Renzhi Palace and Jingzhao. I was afraid that something might change, so I came with my personal guards and the young men in the village... It's okay, it's okay..."
Li Yuan also felt very lucky. The back of his head felt cold just thinking about it. If Li Shan hadn't sent his personal guards to Renzhi Palace, if not for the personal guards who rushed back to Sun Moon Lake overnight to report the news, if not for Li Shan's decisive decision... At the last moment, the rebels It is only one step away from breaking through Cuiwei Palace.
Chen Shuda murmured: "The three messengers just met Wei Yunqi, the governor of Ningzhou. Where did they meet Huairen?"
"A few dozen miles outside the Phoenix Valley, someone claimed to be summoned by His Majesty. He only brought a few dozen followers with him. They were wearing official uniforms and did not carry any weapons." Li Shan snorted, "So, I asked him to be the vanguard to break the formation."
"Wei Yunqi is not rebellious." Li Yuan first set the tone and said with a sneer: "The prince is really good at it, good at it. He fought hard to survive. I really gave birth to a good son!"
Except for formal occasions in the Taiji Hall, Li Yuan usually calls Li Jiancheng Da Lang, but now he calls him Prince. The last sentence... everyone can hear the chill in it.
In fact, if the rebels break through Cuiwei Palace, quite a few people will survive. Even the Qin King's right-hand men like Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling probably won't die. After all, they are descendants of the Jingzhao Du family and the Qinghe Fang family, such as Yang Gongren and Chen Shuda. You can survive like this.
Even the generals of the Tiance Mansion such as Qin Qiong, Yu Chigong, and Duan Zhixuan probably won't lose their heads, but Li Yuan, Li Shimin and his son will definitely die.
How could Li Yuan not hate this and how could he not grit his teeth.
Seeing Li Yuan's expressionless expression, Chen Shuda asked, "Huairen, is there anything unusual in Chang'an?"
"I didn't inquire when I set off, and only left two personal guards to enter the city to inform Princess Pingyang." Li Shan responded: "When we set off from Huayuan County this morning, the personal guards came to tell us that Princess Pingyang had controlled the Beiya forbidden army and was guarding the emperor. city."
It was said in a vague way, but everyone present knew that Princess Pingyang had controlled Chang'an's troops and even controlled the imperial city... Although the East Palace was not in Tai Chi Palace, it was still in the imperial city.
Chen Shuda was thinking in his mind whether he should persuade his majesty to return to Chang'an... The evidence of the prince's rebellion was conclusive. If his majesty returned to Beijing, he could legitimately depose the prince, and the King of Qin could legitimately take over the East Palace.
Li Shimin already had unparalleled military exploits, and he was also very good at handling government affairs in the past two years. Last year at Tiantai Mountain and this year at Renzhi Palace, he personally went into battle twice... At least his loyalty and filial piety were clearly displayed.
Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, and Du Ruhui were all considering this issue, but Ling Jing suddenly asked: "How long can we capture Yu Wenying alive?"
Li Shan was stunned, "Yu Wenying?"
The coldness in Li Yuan's eyes grew even stronger, "The day before yesterday, Yu Wenying went to Yijun County to meet Yang Wenqian, the governor of Zhaofang Prefecture. In the early hours of yesterday morning, Yang Wenqian led the rebels to attack. Later, he saw Yu Wenying and Yang Wenqian standing side by side under his banner."
Chen Shuda explained bit by bit, from Qiao Gongshan's accusation of the prince's rebellion to Yang Wenqian's attack on Phoenix Valley early yesterday morning, Li Shan's mouth almost burst into tears.
Li Shan was well aware of Qiao Gongshan's accusation, and it was Feng Lun who instigated it. He just detained Er Zhuhuan, but he didn't expect that it caused Wei Zheng to come to Renzhi Palace to express his feelings for the prince... This guy is really good. Tough luck.
King Qi Li Yuanji took away half of the Forbidden Army. Li Shan knew about it through the prisoners at Juyuan Bridge, but he didn't expect that Li Yuan actually sent Yu Wenying to order Yang Wenqian... Li Yuanji is so unlucky.
This change made Li Shan a little stunned for a moment, but... among the people present, only Ling Jing could be sure. Li Shan was probably ecstatic now.
Ling Jing knew Li Shan's plan from beginning to end, but he didn't know about Er Zhuhuan... But one thing Ling Jing was sure about was that Li Shan hoped to force Feng Lun out through this matter.
That's why Ling Jing mentioned Yu Wenying at the right time and turned the topic to King Qi... It's just that Li Shan originally hoped, but now it's necessary because of Er Zhuhuan.
Ling Jing's guess was correct. Li Shan was indeed ecstatic now. Unexpectedly, Yu Wenying actually jumped out... Whether it was active or passive, she could be involved with King Qi anyway.
You, Li Yuanji, who led the troops to quell the civil unrest, left on July 14th. Today is already July 17th. It was only a few dozen miles away. You haven't come back yet... let alone, you went to Yiyi. Jun County, and Yang Wenqian was killed from Yijun County!
If you say that Yu Wenying was not ordered by you, some people may believe it... But there are no such fools in the whole of Chang'an, but at least in the Phoenix Valley, there is absolutely no such fool.
Li Shan licked his dry lips and looked at Su Dingfang, "Brother Dingfang, please ask Ah Hei."
After Su Dingfang nodded and went out, Li Shan rubbed his nose vigorously and lowered his voice, "Your Majesty, I came to Juyuan Bridge... to defeat the ambush. In fact, there were only forty or fifty people, and the leader was captured alive."
"Who is it?" Li Yuan secretly gritted his teeth.
"Yu Wenbao."
"Yu Wenbao?" Li Yuan couldn't remember this person for a while, and his first reaction was that it was someone named Yuwen again!
Li Shimin on the side reminded him in a low voice: "Yu Wenbao, my father stayed in Taiyuan in his early years. This man was the military leader. After Jinyang raised troops, he stayed in Taiyuan and later served as the guard of the Prince of Qi."
"Hehe, hehehe, hehehehe..." Li Yuan's laughter went from inaudible to resounding throughout the hall. The laughter was mixed with a bone-chilling chill. Li Yuanjia, who was awakened again, shrank into Li Shan's arms again. middle.
Yu Wenbao plus Yu Wenying, the two Yuwens... Anyway, they have locked the King of Qi Li Yuanji tightly. This guy will never be able to escape!
The next key is how to bring out the old guy Feng Lun from Li Yuanji... Li Shan glanced at Li Shimin, as long as this thing can be done, it is estimated that Er Zhuhuan will be able to find reasons. It can be found.
At this time, Su Dingfang strode over and reported: "Your Majesty, Wang Junhao led a hundred cavalry to pursue him and captured Yu Wenying alive. He has returned."
Li Yuan nodded and gave orders with a cold face, "Erlang suffered many wounds and is recovering from his injuries. The troops are all led by Li Huairen, the successor king of Wei."
In fact, this is nonsense. Now all the troops in Phoenix Valley are Li Shan's personal guards, and not many of the original defenders can stand.
However, Li Yuan continued: "Cui Qing drafted the edict, and Daoxuan brought the edict's military talisman and mobilized Jingzhao's troops to go to Fanfu."
"Separate envoys were sent to summon Qian Jiulong, the governor of Jingzhou, Li Mengchang, the general manager of Longzhou, and Chang Da, the general manager of Qizhou. They all led their troops to the borders of Fangzhou and Jingzhao, and they were all controlled by Li Huairen."
"The palace supervises the Soviet system, and will return to Chang'an later. He orders Pingyang to control the Beiya Imperial Army who are staying behind, and summons the prince to come to Renzhi Palace for an audience."
"Send an envoy to Yijun County and summon the King of Qi to see him."
A series of orders showed that the anger in the heart of the founding emperor of the Tang Dynasty had reached its peak. Li Shan thought to himself that despite a series of accidents, the prince would definitely not be able to get up this time. The dethroning of the prince should be done quickly, but it will take a long time. Let's see what other methods Pei Shiju can use!
