Let’s talk about what Li Chengqian regrets most.
You just overestimate your abilities.
There are not just a few or even dozens of assassins in front of you.
Now, wherever Li Chengqian looked, all he could see were assassins wearing civilian clothes and face scarves.
These guys are all brave and die-hard warriors, and all of them have extraordinary skills.
Even under the siege of dead soldiers like Li Chengqian and the intensive care of assassins armed with crossbows, it was somewhat difficult to hold on.
And just when he was under siege.
Li Shimin finally reached the assassins' crossbow line.
I saw him hiding in the grass and selecting the target.
Then, he arched his waist like a cheetah and charged straight out the next moment.
Even though he was empty-handed, Li Shimin was still unstoppable.
His ability was not blown out of thin air, and he was fierce and swift when he struck.
Those dead soldiers were as if they were made of paper in front of him.
In just an instant, he killed six or seven people, and the crossbow formation was completely disrupted by him.
You know, before, Li Chengqian not only had to deal with the assassins around him, but also was always on guard against secret attacks from crossbows.
And as Li Shimin disrupted the assassins' crossbow formation.
Li Chengqian was like a beast that had been unchained.
He was seen holding a steel knife in one hand, rushing into the enemy's array, and killing them directly.
Just watch his two swords flying up and down, and under the light and shadow of the sword, the broken limbs are flying all over the sky.
Li Chengqian's martial arts skills are not something that people of this era can resist.
Although those dead soldiers were not afraid of death, they were all given to Li Chengqian for nothing.
Especially after he no longer had any worries, Li Chengqian became even more unscrupulous and used all his abilities to cut down a large area of the assassin in front of him.
And just when Li Chengqian and Li Shimin were fighting side by side in two groups.
The sound of horseshoes hammering the ground was also heard not far away. Just looking up, one could see groups of Tang cavalry charging towards them.
Liu Min, the leader, took the lead. He turned over and dismounted on the official road. Without any hesitation, he went straight into the crowd.
The cavalry also followed closely behind and joined the battle group together.
With their joining, Li Chengqian and Li Shimin were also liberated.
Li Chengqian was leaning on the stone beside him, breathing heavily while starting to bandage the wound on his leg.
And when Li Shimin saw his skillful bandaging techniques, he suddenly felt heartbroken for no reason.
He is so skilled at bandaging his own wounds, so how many injuries must he have suffered.
How many times have I been injured in exchange for this...
When he thought of this, Li Shimin felt even more indignant.
At that moment, he didn't even think about anything.
He just wanted his son to live a peaceful life and succeed him smoothly.
There is no more whetstone, no more intrigue.
Li Shimin clenched his fist tightly and said directly to Liu Min: "Liu Min, stay alive, I will get to the bottom of this matter!"
When he heard this, Li Chengqian, who was bandaging his wounds, was obviously stunned for a moment.
He turned to look at Li Shimin, his eyes full of confusion and suspicion.
He was not a fool, and he could probably guess who sent these assassins.
But is Li Shimin really willing to deal with him for himself?
And judging from Li Shimin's attitude towards him in the previous times when he had assassinated him, this was obviously impossible...
Thinking of this, Li Chengqian shook his head helplessly.
Nothing was said, nothing was thought.
After bandaging the wound, he limped toward the carriage.
And looking at his back, Li Shimin could always feel an indescribable loneliness.
He paused on the spot and thought for a moment.
Li Shimin also followed Li Chengqian and got into the carriage.
The father and son sat in the carriage together, relatively speechless.
After a long time, it was Li Shimin who spoke first and said, "Is the wound okay?"
"Um."
Li Chengqian nodded lightly, stroked his injured leg and said, "The skin injury will heal in a few days."
"Then you have to take good care of it."
Li Shimin looked at Li Chengqian and said, "When you get back, don't go back to where you are. You can stay in the palace for a while so that the imperial doctor can take care of you."
"It's not as serious as you think."
"My son has grown up and can take care of himself."
Li Chengqian chuckled and said, "But I still have to thank my father for his love for me."
Hearing this, Li Shimin couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Does it mean that as a father who loves his son, he needs to be thanked?"
As he spoke, Li Shimin raised his hand and patted Li Chengqian's shoulder, sighing and saying: "I was wrong before, but you have to believe in your father and your emperor."
"This time, I will never let you be wronged again."
He said very firmly.
But these words really have no credibility with Li Chengqian.
That's how it is sometimes.
As long as you are deceived once, you will have doubts about this person's words and have reservations about this person in your heart.
And if you are deceived by him again, you will never believe what he says in the future.
That's what Li Chengqian is.
He really didn't believe what Li Shimin would do to Li Tai.
He also didn't believe that Li Shimin would really execute Li Tai or demote him to another place.
Furthermore, Li Chengqian also knew that Li Tai could not be demoted, let alone killed...
Li Chengqian said directly to Li Shimin: "Father, let's just let this matter go and just pretend that nothing happened, okay?"
"Why?"
Li Shimin looked at Li Chengqian with some confusion.
"Father, don't forget, the world has just stabilized."
"And the Xuanwu Sect incident has only happened a few years ago, and the people have just come out of the turmoil in the royal family."
"Now, after so many years of hard work by my father, the common people finally have some confidence in the royal family."
"If something goes wrong again at this time, wouldn't it chill the hearts of all the people in the world?"
Li Chengqian shook his head slightly and said: "So Father, let's end this matter here. We haven't done anything, so we must not continue to investigate..."
Hearing Li Chengqian's words, Li Shimin couldn't tell what he felt in his heart.
He is really too sensible.
The more sensible the child is, the more it proves that the parents are not doing enough.
Li Shimin really regrets it now.
I regret not accompanying him to grow up, regret not watching him grow up.
Li Shimin couldn't help but look up and smile bitterly.
He looked at Li Chengqian, his eyes gradually blurred.
Do you know how much I hope you can quarrel with me and quarrel with me?
Or maybe he acts coquettishly towards me like Qingque.
But you are you, you can never be like him.
And this is you Li Chengqian.
It is the child who is most like me...
…
Li Shimin did not give up investigating this matter as Li Chengqian said.
Instead, he stepped up his efforts. Not only did he make the matter public in the court, but he also personally ordered Wei Zheng and other senior officials to conduct a thorough investigation in person.
This time he was really desperate for Li Tai.
He really wants to completely get rid of this piece of rotten flesh growing on his body...
