Datang: Longevity for Thousands of Years, Exposed by Xiao Sizi

"I don't know, but looking at these footprints, they all came from Chang'an City."

"It's hard to say. The footprints were cleared before they reached Chang'an City. It's too chaotic. There are a lot of footprints. It snowed last night, so it's hard to judge."

"Is there no one cleaning up the battlefield? Could it be that this group of people were wiped out?"

"Oh my god, I know. Yesterday evening, someone seemed to have seen His Majesty leaving the city. Could it be that... these people are related to His Majesty?"

"Your Majesty, hiss... If that's the case, they are not going to ambush Your Majesty here, right?"

"But this force of 10,000 people far exceeds the Jinwu Guards led by Your Majesty last night. Why can't I see Your Majesty?"

"I don't know. It's troublesome. I feel like something big is going to happen."

"It must be a big deal. So many people died. Let's go, go back. I feel like if we don't go back now, we may never be able to go back."

"......."

The people were talking about it.

Many smart and quick-thinking people turned around hurriedly and rushed towards Chang'an City.

The bodies of tens of thousands of people were left outside the city of Chang'an.

No one from the imperial court came forward to tidy up and clean up.

His Majesty's current whereabouts are somewhat unclear.

Last night, His Majesty led several hundred Jinwu Guards out of the city again.

When I think about it carefully, my back feels cold.

problem occurs!
Something is really going to happen this time!

At this moment, Chang'an was in real chaos.

The main residence of the Longxi Li family.

"Corpses, all corpses!"

"Damn it, damn it, there are corpses everywhere!"

"Who is it? Who is secretly helping Li Shimin? Who is it?!"

"Impossible, how is this possible? Didn't Li Shimin only bring a few hundred Jinwu Guards? How could my clan's tens of thousands of elite soldiers be wiped out so quietly!"

The head of the Longxi Li family collapsed.

All the news from outside came in, enough to confirm what happened last night.

Absolutely certain!

The last bit of hope in my heart also disappeared.

The head of the Longxi Li family took a deep breath, and a trace of despair appeared on his old face.

despair!

Really desperate!

I have never been so desperate in my life!
If Li Shimin doesn't die, do they still have a chance of winning?
How else could they defeat them?

The head of the Qinghe Cui family and the head of the Xingyang Zheng family were like two dead dogs, slumped in their seats, with staring eyes, stiff faces, and a dark complexion.

how could it be possible!
How is this possible!
Oh my God!
Oh my God!
They are all really dead!

And I heard from people outside that not a single one escaped, not a single one!!
This means that Li Shimin must have taken advantage of absolute numbers and completely surrounded them, otherwise, it would be impossible that not a single one escaped.

The ending of these ten thousand people seemed to be exactly the same as that of the two thousand people who attacked Suzakuyuan at night!
Senseless!

Silly!

Surprised!

Overwhelmed!
Difficult to accept!

"We....Gudong....What else can we do?"

"Li Shimin, damn it, this Li family's second son, how many tricks does he still have that he hasn't used yet!"

The head of the Qinghe Cui family roared with difficulty.

He was almost having trouble breathing.

"I don't know, I really don't know!"

"We, we... Master Li, Brother Li, what do you think we should do? What should we do?!"

The head of the Zheng family in Xingyang looked weakly at the head of the Li family in Longxi.

The head of the Longxi Li family turned his head to look at them miserably, smiled bitterly, shook his head, and felt a little numb all over.

"How should I know? When Li Shimin comes back, he will definitely attack us!"

The head of the Longxi Li family had a bitter face and felt deeply powerless.

silence!

silence!

The lobby suddenly became like a tomb of the dead!
It was unknown how long it had been, but the head of the Longxi Li family suddenly raised his head, with a hint of violence flashing in his eyes.

"Now that things have come to this, there is nothing we can do to back down. Let's just... rebel!!"

"There is a master behind Li Shimin. We probably can't do anything with these methods. The worst that can happen is that we can fight them openly!"

"Damn it! We should support Li Tai's ascension to the throne right now and mobilize all our forces. At worst, we can share the empire with Li Shimin!"

"How about this plan?"

The head of the Longxi Li family shouted excitedly.

"what!"

"This... According to the law, Li Chengqian is the crown prince. Is it any use for us to support him?"

The head of the Qinghe Cui family and the head of the Xingyang Zheng family both stood up suddenly, their eyes bursting.

"How should we divide the world?"

The head of the Qinghe Cui family asked with a trembling voice, breathing a little rapidly.

The head of the Longxi Li family took a deep breath.

"We will take Li Tai and Li Yuan away right now. If Li Chengqian is also in Chang'an, we will send troops to capture him and put him under house arrest! We have the strength to do so. After all... Li Shimin will not be able to come back for a while!"

"Let's take this opportunity to head to Luoyang! Mobilize all our forces and contact those forces that want to restore the previous dynasty. Otherwise, we have no chance of winning!"

The head of the Longxi Li family clenched his fists tightly.

"this……."

The head of the Cui family in Qinghe and the head of the Zheng family in Xingyang did not hesitate.

"We don't have time to waste. We have to go now without further delay!"

The head of the Longxi Li family stared at the two men and said, "Luoyang is under the control of our family. The power inside, plus the power of our family in the Ten Paths of the World, as long as we raise our arms and shout, we will definitely start a war again!"

"With so many heroes competing for supremacy, I don't believe that we can't defeat Li Shimin!"

The head of the Longxi Li family shouted again.

The head of the Qinghe Cui family and the head of the Xingyang Zheng family looked at each other and gritted their teeth.

"Okay, that's it!!"

They knew that they could not just sit there and wait for death.

If Li Shimin comes back, that would be real trouble.

"Let's split up now. I'll go to Prince Wei's mansion, and you gather our troops!"

"By the way, order the city gates to be closed first, and no one is allowed to enter!"

"Let's go! Action!"

The head of the Longxi Li family raised his arm and shouted, and he walked straight out.

Even the snow couldn't stop him.

Li Jiajilang!

Damn Li Jiajilang!
Inverted!

It has to be the other way around!!
.
…………….….
Prince Wei's Mansion.

Li Tai, Wei Ting and Chai Lingwu are together.

I didn't sleep a wink all night.

They have been waiting, waiting...
Waiting for good news from the aristocratic family.

But a night passed and there was still no news.

From the initial excitement to the current mental exhaustion.

After all, Wei Ting and the other two are already quite old, and Li Tai is obsessed with women every day, and his body has long been drained.

Three people were sitting on stools, heads down, dozing off.

Nodding from time to time, opening eyes from time to time, and then closing them again. It can be said that each one is very difficult to bear.

It is not easy to be able to sit still now.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, something bad has happened, something terrible has happened!"

And at this moment, finally, a guard rushed in from outside.

The voice was anxious.

All four people were awakened at once.

They were waiting for news. It was like a conditioned reflex, and they stood up immediately, their eyes hazy, at a loss.

"Huh? What? What did you say? Something happened, what happened?"

Li Tai swallowed his saliva and wiped the drool from the corner of his mouth with his sleeve. His mind was still a little fuzzy and he felt even more uncomfortable when he spoke.

After all, it started very quickly.

It's a bit confusing.

Wei Ting and Chai Lingwu both wiped their eyes vigorously, looking very much at a loss.

"Your Highness, outside, outside the city... people are dead, so many people are dead!"

"According to rumors outside, those people are going to kill... to kill His Majesty!!"

"But now your Majesty has disappeared, Chang'an City has been bombed, and I heard that more than 10,000 people have died outside!"

"Your Highness, should we go look for His Majesty?"

The guard also spoke haltingly.

His Majesty was assassinated.

Now there is no trace of it.

This news was like a bombshell to them!

"what!"

When Li Tai heard this, he suddenly came to his senses.

Tens of thousands of people died!
His Majesty is missing!
He suddenly looked at Wei Ting and the other man.

Wei Ting and the others had also woken up at this moment, their eyes were bright and their brows were furrowed, they were all thinking and considering.

Ten thousand people died?

Now the whole Chang'an city knows it!
Also, there is no trace of His Majesty at all?
In that case, the nobles didn't kill Your Majesty yesterday?
If he was killed, the news would have spread early.

There was no trace of His Majesty at the scene.

Your Majesty is not dead!

Li Shimin is not dead!
Wei Ting’s eyes almost popped out of his head.

How can it be?

He almost screamed, but fortunately he reacted and immediately covered his mouth.

"You go down."

"The king knows."

Li Tai was quick to react and gave orders directly.

The guards retreated hastily.

"Your Majesty is not dead!!"

Only after the guards left did Wei Ting scream in fear.

"How is this possible? How is this possible?"

"Ten thousand people, these are ten thousand elite members of the noble families. They... they are all dead, but your Majesty is the only one missing. Doesn't this mean that your Majesty is not dead?"

"Oh my god, how is this possible? How could this be missed?"

Wei Ting's voice was about to jump out.

To be honest, this incident was really beyond their expectations. They always felt that this operation should be foolproof.

But who could have thought that the ending would be like this!

"What then? What should we do?"

Li Tai's hands trembled, and he was really a little panicked.

Wei Ting and Chai Lingwu looked at each other, bewildered, and neither of them had an idea.

How is your majesty doing now?
What on earth happened there last night?
Just a few hundred Jinwu Guards killed all the elite members of the aristocratic families?
How can it be!

They don’t know anything about the intelligence at the scene last night. They know nothing at all!

This makes it impossible for them to judge at all!

Also, it is difficult for them to judge whether His Majesty is dead or not.

Although there is no body, it is possible that the person was killed and the body was taken away underground.

Panic!

tension!

Overwhelmed!
The four of them became anxious, and at this moment, the head of the Longxi Li family rushed in from outside.

"Master Li, what's going on outside?"

"Yes, Master Li, what on earth is going on outside Chang'an City?"

"Your Majesty... Is Your Majesty dead or not?"

"Master Li, Master Li, could it be that all of our clan's 10,000 elite soldiers... have really been killed?"

"What's going on outside? We must take immediate action."

"......."

When the head of the Longxi Li family just walked in, Wei Ting and Chai Lingwu rushed up directly and quickly.

Looks anxious.

Panic.

Overwhelmed.

The head of the Longxi Li family took a deep breath, looked at them, quickly scanned them, and his eyes fell on Li Tai.

"Your Highness, on behalf of the Longxi Li family, I respectfully welcome Your Highness to the throne!!"

The head of the Longxi Li family fell to his knees.

Boom!

As soon as these words came out, the entire sky exploded.

The entire lobby suddenly fell silent. Wei Ting and Chai Lingwu were stunned on the spot.

Li Tai never expected that the final outcome would be like this!
Am I the emperor?
Welcome yourself to the throne?

Oh my God!
this…….
His hands trembled violently and his lips quivered violently.

"Master Li, this...what on earth is going on? What on earth is going on?"

"Appointment? Me?"

Li Tai was terrified.

The head of the Longxi Li family nodded slowly.

"Yes, it's you."

"Your Highness, the Emperor has disappeared without a trace. Please ascend the throne now! Then, take the late Emperor with you and leave Chang'an for the time being, just in case!"

"Luoyang is the absolute home of our clan. All the people there belong to us."

"In this way, even if Li Shimin is lucky enough to survive, we will still be able to fight!!"

"Your Highness, you know that among the ten provinces in the world, five are in the hands of our clan. With our support, the only thing left is to rule separately from Li Shimin. We have the late emperor, so we can ask him to issue a summons!"

"Let's just say that Li Shimin was a rebel and came to power illegitimately, and we are the legitimate ones!"

"By then, the world will be in chaos. Even if Li Shimin comes back, he will have no choice but to surrender!"

"Your Highness, please make the decision! This matter is urgent!"

The head of the Longxi Li family said in a deep voice.

Li Tai swallowed hard. He could only say that his mind was blank and his throat was burning and very painful.

This piece of news really made him completely unable to think.

He didn't know what to do for a moment.

Father, father is missing?

Take the emperor to Luoyang by yourself?

But, but…….
But can I be a match for my father?

Li Tai felt uneasy.

But he had absolutely no other options.

Panic!

Silly!

For a moment, Li Tai looked at Wei Ting, Chai Lingwu and others with bitterness, and he had no idea what to choose.

"hiss……."

Wei Ting took a deep breath. As he listened to the words of the head of the Longxi Li family, he knew very well that the current situation was very bad for him.

Otherwise, they would not have been allowed to leave for Luoyang.

But, what happened yesterday has already happened!
