Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 4333

The first thousand and 260 chapters and three storms
Xuanwu Gate.

Li Daozong sat inside the tower, with all the windows open on all four sides, and the breeze blowing in with raindrops made it cool.

No candles were lit inside the city tower, but the light from outside torches and lanterns came in from the windows and sprinkled on Li Daozong's face, half of which was hidden in the darkness, half of which was ruddy and bright, but his eyebrows were tightly locked together, and his palms A teacup is tightly clenched, and the pupils are a little divergent. It is obvious that the energy is not concentrated enough, and there is a problem in the heart that cannot be decided...

The sound of footsteps woke him up from his contemplation, and when he looked up, he saw Yuwen Shi and quickly walked in from the outside. Before he reached the front, hearty laughter sounded: "The plan has been implemented smoothly. Li Daliang has instigated most of the Youtunwei. As soon as he makes a move, Chai Zhewei will lead the Zuo Tunwei to reinforce and wipe out the remnants of the Right Tunwei in one fell swoop, and outside the Xuanwu Gate, there will be no more threatening forces...Jun Wang, start it!"

The left and right guards stationed outside the Xuanwu Gate not only defended the Xuanwu Gate to increase the defensive strength, but also restrained the Xuanwu Gate. Once the guards of the Xuanwu Gate changed, they would immediately face the Forbidden Army, the Baiqi Division, and the left and right outside the city. The attack from front and back of the Tunwei will be completely wiped out in an instant.

Now that the Right Tunwei has been abolished, the Zuo Tunwei has taken refuge here, and can even resist the troops rescued by King Qin from all over the Guanzhong. He will encounter a head-on blow from Zuo Tunwei.

Li Daozong could lead his elite troops into the Taiji Palace calmly, destroy the emperor in one fell swoop, and set the stage for the universe...

However, Li Daozong sat still inside the city tower, his face was expressionless, and there was no light from the fire outside the building, making his face uncertain.

Life is about making choices. Every day, every moment, and every step, we are faced with trade-offs and choices. No matter how decisive a person is, he cannot guarantee that every decision is correct, and everyone will make mistakes.

However, some mistakes in choices can be borne, and it is a big deal to start all over again. Some choices cannot be made, because the consequences are unbearable. If one step is wrong, there will be forever.
Yuwen Shiji walked into the tower, sat on the side of Li Daozong, and said slowly: "The old man knows that you are entangled and hesitant, but have you forgotten the kindness of the late emperor? You have followed the late emperor since you were a child, and the two cousins ​​have feelings for each other. Very sincerely, compared to my compatriots, I am no less lenient. Now that the late emperor has passed away, and when he was dying, he still couldn’t forget the matter of Yi Chu. As ministers and younger brothers, we should do our best to fulfill the last wish of the late emperor!”

It takes skill to persuade a person. For a person like Li Daozong, it is impossible to impress him with fame and fortune. Only with the kindness and friendship of the late emperor can he make him firm.

Of course, saying these things now is just a step up and an excuse for Li Daozong. He has come to this point, how can he be allowed to change his mind?
Li Daozong was silent for a long time, until there was a loud sound of killing from the north window, then he slowly put down the teacup in his hand, and said in a deep voice: "After entering the palace, I will direct everything. Otherwise, don't blame me for turning my face and denying people."

The struggle for imperial power means a bloodbath, and it is by no means a simple war. It is inevitable to cut grass and roots.But he is only willing to assist King Jin to complete the struggle for imperial power, and he does not want to go too far and wash the entire Taiji Palace with blood.

In the final analysis, I just wanted to fulfill Emperor Taizong's last wish, but Li Chengqian was not wrong...

Yu Wenshi and his eyes flickered, thought for a while, nodded and said: "I can only guarantee that the Guanlongmen Clan will not intervene. I don't know what the rest of the forces will do. However, Jin Wangzhai has a kind heart and always pays attention to brotherhood and family. Presumably, he will not oppose the county king. your approach."

Even if he entered the Taiji Palace, Li Chengqian could not die at this time, otherwise it would become a real mutiny, and everyone would be a traitor, who would definitely be recorded in the annals of history and scolded forever.

History books can be tampered with, but people's hearts cannot.

Even if he has done everything to usurp the throne, who is willing to admit it?
Therefore, Li Chengqian must live, and then "wake up", "abdicate to the virtuous", "Zen" in the king of Jin, and then the king of Jin "forgiveness" and "care for family affection" bestowed on Li Chengqian the title, and allowed him to go to the fief for honor and support, and finally Accidentally contracted a serious disease and died suddenly...

This is a complete set of scripts, and there must be no mistakes in the slightest. Otherwise, even if King Jin ascends to the throne, he will still be a usurper.

So Yuwen Shiji dared to replace King Jin and agreed to come down...

Li Daozong got up and went to the north window, pushed the window completely open, and he could overlook the camps of the two garrisons on the north side of the city gate. There was a melee in the central camp, and the left guards were also brightly lit. Uncountable troops formed several columns, holding torches, and came out of the camp like fire dragons, pressing towards the right guards separated by a wall.

The breeze is blowing, and the rain is falling, but it can't annihilate the battlefield like fire.

As the armed force guarding the Xuanwu Gate, it also bears the responsibility of supervision, and it has disappeared at this moment...

Li Daozong's face sank like water.

Further, you can lead an army from Xuanwu Gate to annihilate the Youtunwei rebellion, and then together with Gao Kan and others defeat Chai Zhewei's Zuotunwei, guard Xuanwumen to ensure the safety of Taiji Palace; Tunwei wiped out the threat, and led his own army to enter the Taiji Palace from the Taoist sect, to fix the chaos in the tripod, and to help protect the king of Jin to ascend the throne.

Between advance and retreat, the place of gain and loss is a world of difference.

Yuwen Shiji stood behind, not daring to speak out to urge him. At this moment, any thought might affect Li Daozong's decision. All he could do was wait.

He believed that with Li Daozong's loyalty to Emperor Taizong, he would definitely make a decision in line with Emperor Taizong's last wish...

After a long time, Li Daozong suddenly turned around, his eyes were burning, and he shouted, "Come here!"

Outside the city tower, a school captain immediately strode in: "The last general is waiting for the general's order."

Li Daozong: "As the order continues, there are rebels who sneaked into the palace to overthrow the imperial power and murder His Majesty. Immediately gather the whole army. Although the commander is self-respecting, he enters the Taiji Palace and works hard to save the king and help the country!"

"Here!"

The school lieutenant was shocked, although the order was like a nine-day thunderstorm that made his head buzzing in panic and surprise, he didn't dare to disobey the military order, and quickly turned around and went out to deliver the order.

After a while, the sound of people shouting and neighing sounded from under the Xuanwu Gate, and groups of soldiers ran out of the barracks, and quickly assembled under the command of their respective corporal leaders, brigade commanders, and school lieutenants. More than ten thousand soldiers were killed.

Li Daozong stood on the edge of the tower, holding the arrow stacks in his hands and overlooking the dark army. He let the rain fall on his head and body, but he felt the heat in his chest trembling. As the Son of Heaven's personal army guarding the palace, you should do your best to protect His Majesty, and all the troops obey the order, and immediately enter the Taiji Palace through the inner gate to protect the sky, whoever dares to stop him will be killed without mercy!"

"Here!"

More than ten thousand people suddenly agreed, and the sound shook the sky.

With a wave of Li Daozong's hand, the army under the city gate flooded towards the inner heavy gate.

Behind the inner heavy gate is the Tai Chi Palace.

Standing behind Li Daozong, Yuwen Shiji witnessed with his own eyes more than ten thousand soldiers and horses rushing towards the inner gate, which made his tense mind instantly relax, his legs became weak and he almost fell to the ground.

Since the failure of the Guanlongmen Clan's mutiny, Changsun Wuji committed suicide and adjudicated his crimes. The life, death and future of the entire Guanlongmen Clan was on his shoulders.It was his long-cherished wish to replace Changsun Wuji as Guanlong No. 1, but now that his long-cherished wish has been fulfilled, he did not feel much joy, but rather hesitation and anxiety of shouldering a heavy responsibility.

Along the way, he devoted all his energy to assisting the king of Jin to change his fate against the sky. How many risks, dangers, and even a slight mistake during the process would make him an eternal sinner in Guanlong forever.Fortunately, until now, everything he has planned is already in sight.

Tai Chi Palace has strong defenses, two thousand regular forbidden troops, more than one thousand elite cavalry, plus Fang Jun's troops who can enter the palace outside Xuande Gate to support at any time, this is a force that cannot be ignored.But Yuwen Shiji believes that with Li Daozong's ability, he can command his army to drive straight into the Taiji Palace without any worries, smash all these defensive forces, and completely subvert the imperial power.

The sky is like ink, and the rain is falling.

Dawn is just around the corner, and the dawn will shine on the earth at the moment when the dark clouds clear the sky, and everything will be renewed.

*****
When Li Daozong ordered the army to be assembled, the news had already spread to Neizhongmen. Such a shocking change naturally made everyone in Taiji Palace stunned and unbelievable.Who would have thought that such a meritorious official like Li Daozong, who was highly valued by His Majesty and appointed to guard the Xuanwu Gate, would be attached to the rebels and plot rebellion?
But the time was tight, and there was no time to trace the cause. The defense system of the entire Taiji Palace was running to the limit in an instant. Teams of forbidden troops occupied strategic points in the palace, and the elite Baiqi Division rushed to Zhaoqing Palace, On the front line of the Ziwei Hall, you can support the inner heavy gate when you enter, and you can stick to the Ganlu Hall when you retreat.

Li Junxian sits in the Zhaoqing Palace nearby to command, and at the same time collects information and submits it to the Wude Palace for His Majesty's overall decision-making...

Although the defenders of the Neizhong Gate were ready, the guarding force of more than a thousand people seemed stretched. More than ten thousand "Yuan Cong Forbidden Army" and "Bei Ya Forbidden Army" came overwhelmingly under the command of Li Daozong, and they launched the tide without any hesitation. The strong and heavy inner door is like a flat boat in the ocean, crumbling and threatened to be annihilated at any time.

……

The news of the Xuanwu Sect's rebellion spread quickly to the Hall of Wude. Li Chengqian, who climbed up from the bed, asked the Queen Su to serve him and put on his clothes. Seeing that the Queen's face was pale, he barely calmed down. He smiled and patted her on the shoulder, saying softly : "Don't worry, if a mere rebel wants to go against the sky and change his fate, it's tantamount to turning the world upside down and wishful thinking. Just take care of our children in the palace and wait for me to punish the rebellion!"
