This prince, it doesn't matter if you don't do it!

This is how people are, as long as they compromise once, they have to compromise infinitely.

Changsun Chong, who understood this truth, decisively chose to send troops.

At first, they were reasonable, but this was not the greatest confidence for him to dare to send troops.

The real confidence lies with Li Chengqian and their dual identities. This is the confidence that he dares to send troops decisively.

And this is also the most embarrassing place for Li Ke and others.

In any case, the current result is extremely unfavorable to them.

"Your Highness, no matter what, stabilizing Chang'an is the top priority now." Seeing Li Ke's hesitation, Li Xiaogong sighed in his heart, and then said, "If Chang'an is really in chaos, even if your Majesty will question the Ming Dynasty, at that time Isn’t it too late?”

He didn't want chaos in Chang'an. If it really happened, it would be of no benefit to him. He had no choice but to remind him again.

On the side, Yang Shidao also nodded and said: "The prince is right. The most important thing now is to stabilize Chang'an."

He actually has no objection to stabilizing Chang'an. After all, their goal has been achieved.

All they say is to damage Li Chengqian's reputation. This is their fundamental purpose. As for the rest, they are just doing it by the way.

Now that the goal has been achieved, there is indeed no need to continue.

Moreover, as long as Chang'an stabilizes, there is no reason for Ming Dynasty's Changming Army to continue to do so.

In the final analysis, the longer the Changming Army enforces law in Chang'an, the more it will damage the majesty of the Tang Dynasty.

If this is not handled well and reaches Li Er's ears, regardless of how Li Er will deal with it, Li Ke's ability will definitely be questioned. This is not the result they want to achieve.

"That's it." Li Ke also nodded. At this moment, he was actually a little confused. He didn't expect that guys like Changsun Chong would be so crazy.

But now that the matter was over, he had no better way.

If you want to deal with Chang Sun Chong and others, you can only take a long-term approach.

In the Chang'an market, the Chang Ming Army appeared in various places, some outside workshops and some in front of shops.

The only similarity is probably that they are all confronting a group of common people.

Speaking of which, among these people, the most unlucky one is Li Jingren.

I don't know if he was unlucky, but the people who besieged the shop he was protecting were extremely grumpy. Although there were some people who were provoking them, it was obvious that these people were grumpier, or more indignant.

Without much effort, the two sides turned into a physical conflict.

It should be said that the people of the Tang Dynasty in the early Tang Dynasty were really bloody. Maybe they had just experienced the troubled times in the late Sui Dynasty. These people were really bloody and brave.

And Li Jingren himself has a pretty good temper. He was kind to him at first, but in the end he found that his good words didn't make sense anymore, so he couldn't bear it anymore and no longer needed to endure it.

Of course, even now, he was still extremely restrained.

Until General You Wuhou and Liang Jianfang appeared, things suddenly became out of anyone's control.

As for Liang Jianfang, although his name is not well-known, he is definitely a famous general in the early Tang Dynasty. But again, there are too many famous generals in the early Tang Dynasty, and the famous officials in the early Tang Dynasty also compete with each other. The famous general of the early Tang Dynasty was really not ranked...

Let's put it this way, he was also a Duke and Duke, and as a result, there are only a few words in the history books.

If he were placed in the Song Dynasty, he would not be able to write two or three pages in the history books?

It can only be said that in the early Tang Dynasty, the pressure of competition among famous generals was also great!

As a general, it was undoubtedly a tragedy to be born in the early Tang Dynasty.

But this guy, although his name is not famous, is also a fierce man.

As General Youwuhou, when he learned that the Changming Army was raising troops in Chang'an, he immediately led his men to fight out of the military camp.

In any case, as the defender of Chang'an, how can we sit back and watch foreign troops wreak havoc in Chang'an?

As soon as he came out with his troops, he saw Li Jingren and his men clashing with the people of Chang'an.

The Ming Dynasty knew how to protect its own people, so how could he, the defender of Chang'an, not know this?

He immediately joined the battlefield and began to protect his own people.

When the common people saw their own troops coming, some even picked on the guy and killed him.

Although Li Jingren and the others restrained themselves, the premise was that their own safety was not threatened. Seeing that the people of Tang Dynasty were robbing people, they couldn't just sit back and wait for death, right?

When Liang Jianfang saw that his own people were being bullied, he just picked up the guy and followed the army to kill them.

As a result, Li Jingren and others became even more angry. When it comes to ordinary people, I can still exercise some restraint, but when it comes to you guys, why should I exercise restraint?

It was precisely because of this that it didn't take long for the two sides to evolve from an initial conflict into a real war.

"His grandma, this Liang Jianfang is bullying me. There is no one in the Ming Dynasty. Hurry, go and ask for help!" Not long after the battle, Li Jingren, who did not bring many people because he was just to scare Xiao Xiao, was immediately at a disadvantage and immediately said hello .

Soon, Li Dejiang and others, who were not far away from them, brought people to help.

As their support increased, Liang Jianfang became a little overwhelmed, so he immediately sent people back to bring more people.

In just one hour, what was originally a small-scale encounter turned into a battle involving thousands of troops.

The key is, this is in Chang'an City!

The fact that things have developed to this point is actually not the most interesting. The most interesting thing is that even though the situation has become so serious, Changsun Chong and Li Ke, who received the news, actually had a tacit understanding and did not react at all.

This is the most interesting thing.

It stands to reason that when things have reached this point, it is already very serious.

As an envoy of the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty army fought against the Tang army in Chang'an. Li Er could even think that the Ming Dynasty was sending troops to attack the Tang Dynasty, and he immediately had an excuse to send troops to the Ming Dynasty.

As the temporary supervisor of the country, Li Ke, if something like this happened, it was definitely his dereliction of duty.

As a result, neither of them tried to stop it.

Isn't this nonsense enough?

At this time, in the East Palace, Queen Changsun was doing her daily exercises.

Li Tai, on the other hand, slowly explained to him what was happening in Chang'an market.

After talking about Li Jingren and Liang Jianfang's fight in Chang'an City, Li Tai took a closer look at his mother and saw that she didn't have much reaction, so he asked: "Mother, things have become so big. Is it really appropriate for me to do nothing?"

The cousin he was talking about was naturally Changsun Chong.

When Queen Changsun heard this, she didn't even stop her movements and said very calmly: "This is the most appropriate response."

"Huh?" Li Tai was a little confused.

When Queen Changsun heard this, she didn't answer and asked instead: "Do you still remember why your uncle Anye helped Li Xiaochang in his evil plans?"

Hearing Queen Changsun ask this, Li Tai was also in a daze. Is this the question we are talking about? But he still replied immediately: "It is said that my uncle had bullied the queen in his early years and was afraid of the queen's revenge, so he helped Li Xiaochang in his rebellion."

Hearing what he said, Empress Changsun smiled and said, "Although you are well-read, you do lack some political wisdom.

The relationship between Wei Niang and your Uncle An Ye has eased a lot as early as the Wude years. I can't say to what extent the relationship is better, but at least there is no hatred. Even my brother also has contact with your Uncle An Ye from time to time. Even his prison general was recruited for his mother's help, so how could he worry about his mother's revenge? "

This was the first time for him to hear such a secret, and he was curious at the moment and said: "There must be some traitor who spreads this rumor and wants to taint my mother's wisdom."

"Where did you get the traitor?" After hearing what he said, Empress Changsun stopped her movements and said with a smile, "These words were passed down by my mother."

Hearing Changsun say this, Li Tai was stunned.

"Why?"

The eldest grandson smiled and said: "Because your uncle Anye is from your Aye, are they helping you restore Aye?

At that time, it was the beginning of your father's accession to the throne, the first year of Zhenguan, and you, Aye, had not even moved out of the palace.

Restoration is a matter for everyone in the world, but if your uncle Anye is just worried about revenge for his mother, then it is just a family matter.

Therefore, when looking at anything, don't just look at the surface.

Just like today, you see that your cousin actually did nothing, but in fact he did everything.

Because he couldn't take a step back, the fight between Li Jingren and Liang Jianfang was not for himself, but for Daming's face.

Of course, this is also superficial, and the deeper level is temptation.

Similarly, Ke'er is actually testing him now. If he wants to seize the big position, he must have the support of the military.

But now, the army of the Tang Dynasty is firmly in the hands of your father, how can he have the chance to get involved.

But this time, the conflict between Liang Jianfang and Li Jingren was the opportunity he saw.

Although Liang Jianfang is not a big figure, he is from the military family after all. If he makes a choice, many people in the military will probably have to reconsider.

But his plan finally came to nothing.

Because your father never thought about passing the throne to him from the beginning to the end. To your father, it doesn't really matter who ultimately inherits his throne, as long as it can bring the greatest benefit to the Tang Dynasty.

This time, in the final analysis, is just a test for your brother.

Even with the current situation in Chang'an, your father might be contributing to it. Don't forget, that's your father. "

It has to be said that Queen Changsun's political wisdom is second to none among the queens of all generations. Whether it was her words to set the tone in response to the rebellion of Changsun Anye and others, or her advice to Li Tai now, it all shows Her political wisdom is as good as anyone's.

Li Tai actually understood now that the reason why his mother said so much was just to stop him from having unrealistic illusions about that position.

Empress Changsun made it very clear that Li Er didn't care who succeeded him to the throne, what he valued was who could bring tangible benefits to the Tang Dynasty.

There is actually nothing wrong with this statement.

Let’s not talk about whether Li Er is qualified as a father, but as an emperor, Li Er is definitely qualified.

Therefore, from the standpoint of an emperor, the first thing to consider is the interests of the Tang Dynasty itself, which is beyond reproach.

In other words, there is really nothing wrong with it.

"That's what my mother said." Nodding, Li Tai stopped talking. Deep down in his heart, he was still a little disappointed.

Because this is not the first time that his mother has beaten herself.

We are both sons, so why don’t I treat you like this?

"It doesn't matter. This big drama has nothing to do with our mother and son. Wouldn't it be nice to just sit quietly with our mother and watch the clouds roll and relax?" The eldest grandson smiled and said nothing.

She is living hard now because she is afraid that her sons will follow in Li Er's footsteps.

But judging from the current situation, everything is still within control.

At this time, Chang'an.

Countless people are paying attention to the battle between Li Jingren and Liang Jianfang.

Well, up to now, the fight is actually not just a confrontation between the two of them, it can even be said to be a confrontation between the Tang Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty.

As for Li Ke, he was not idle either. While they were fighting, Li Ke visited many military bosses in the name of the war.

Although Li Er took away many people, there were too many military bosses...

Yes, too many.

The military bosses who stayed in Chang'an were at least one slap in the face.

The reason why Li Ernanzheng didn't take them was not because he didn't trust them. Firstly, he had already taken a lot of people away.

Secondly, these people were deliberately left behind by him. If something unspeakable really happened, someone in Chang'an would be able to step forward and not only turn the tide, but at least buy him time.

Do you think he would really hand over his lair to others?

How can it be!

Of course, Li Ke's visit was useless after all. Who can be called a military boss, who is not a human spirit?

Not to mention Li Er is still alive, even if Li Er dies now, they still have to consider whether Li Ke is the opponent of Ming Dynasty.

On the other hand, Changsun Chong didn't leave the East Palace, and he didn't even take a look at the battle in the market. He just ordered people to keep an eye on the various yamen and the Duke's Mansion.

He also wanted to see how these guys would respond and what choices they would make now.

Until the evening, both sides of the war had to withdraw due to lack of men and horses.

For this reason, a mess and corpses were left on Chang'an Street.

Both sides really did not hold anything back. Except for not using gunpowder bombs and incendiary bombs, which can easily harm innocent people, they also used all possible means. Both sides suffered a lot of casualties.

Even guys like Li Jingren were somewhat successful.

In the midst of a great battle, there is nowhere left intact.

But the most unlucky thing this time was undoubtedly the people who were watching the fun and didn't mind the trouble. They had nothing to do with it, but they died in panic in the end. Maybe they didn't understand before they died that they were the ones who died.

At this time, the East Palace.

Li Jingren, who returned to the East Palace, lay on the hospital bed and allowed the accompanying medical officer to sew up his wounds. He screamed in pain and spat out some time to speak harshly: "That means I don't want to hurt innocent people. No, I can kill these bastards with one gunpowder bomb each...

Ah, please be gentle, this is fucking human flesh, not a dead sheep for you to practice on..." Just as he was talking, Li Jingren yelled again because of the pain.

Go early today!
