The Passionate Guns of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 893 Execution Ground (3)

Yang Yong saw that Qin Wang Li Shimin and Xifu Zhao Wang Li Yuanba had arrived with fully armed troops, but the army they brought was not the same as the army that fought on the battlefield. This army was called Fubing.People who are called princes have soldiers in their houses, and these soldiers are to protect the safety of the prince's house.

It turned out that Li Shimin was in the Xishan countryside, and his heart was on the execution ground. He had already made all preparations. He and Li Yuanba assembled three thousand soldiers. They will immediately kill them with their troops.

Someone was passing on information about the dharma ground to him all the time. As soon as Li Shimin heard that Prince Li Jiancheng, Qi Wang Li Yuanji, son-in-law Chai Shao and Zuo servant She Liu Wenjing had all arrived at the dharma ground, Li Shimin knew that today's affairs would be troublesome.He had to do it himself, otherwise, if he couldn't kill Cheng Yaojin, he wouldn't be able to achieve his goal of forcing Yang Yong out.

Therefore, Li Shimin came to the execution ground from the Xishan Garden with the imperial decree and Li Yuanba brought three thousand soldiers.At this time, Li Yuanba was dressed all over his body, his body was still so thin, and he looked malnourished. Putting on armor and riding a tall horse, he was not at all majestic. The drum humming golden hammer was frighteningly big.

Yang Yong knew that in terms of martial arts, he was the only one who could be called his opponent. If he hadn't traveled this time, Li Yuanba would be truly number one in the world, and Luo Shixin, who is known as the strongest in the world, was not his opponent either. They have fought outside the city of Linyi, and as for other giants like Silver Hammer General Pei Xingyan and Yuwen Chengdu, they are far from Li Yuanba's opponents.

Since Li Yuanba was born, he has lost one battle, that is, he was defeated by Yang Yong in terms of strength.That was two years ago, the two met on the Linyi battlefield. Yang Yong claimed to be invincible in divine power. Not an absolute strength advantage.

Now, Yang Yong still has a headache when he sees this person.To put it bluntly, Yang Yong was not sure whether he could win against Li Yuanba one-on-one.There will be a fight in a while, no doubt this person is still his formidable enemy.Why hasn't Luo Song come yet? He, Bai Yu, and Bi Er's guns and horses are all with him. Without a gun or a horse, he can't subdue Li Yuanba, and it's impossible to save Cheng Yaojin. Yang Yong was a little anxious, and looked around. Looking around Li Jiancheng, there is still no sign of Luo Song.

Here Cheng Yaojin's rope has not been untied, while Changsun Wuji and Gao Shilian have already been tied up. At this juncture, Li Shimin arrived.

When Li Shimin came, Changsun Wuji, Gao Shilian and others were shocked, because most of the soldiers and officials on the scene were Li Shimin's people, and the person who untied Cheng Yaojin didn't understand. Lian was tied up, and no one dared to untie him. All eyes turned to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin asked Li Yuanba to lead the team, and told him not to mess around without his own orders. The three thousand soldiers of the government were joined with the generals and officials who maintained order in the execution ground, and the lineup immediately became stronger.Then Li Shimin separated from the crowd and came to the central stage to meet Li Jiancheng.

No matter how bad Li Shimin and Li Jiancheng are in private, they still have to live on the surface. After all, the two came out of the same mother's belly. In addition, Li Jiancheng is the prince, and Li Shimin is at best the king of Qin. Comes second.Others, such as Li Yuanji, Chai Shao, Liu Wenjing, and Li Shimin can turn a blind eye, or even ignore their existence, but for Li Jiancheng, on the surface, Li Shimin dare not make mistakes.

So Li Shimin came to the front of the stage and bowed to Li Jiancheng: "Shimin sees the elder brother of the prince."

"Second brother, my brothers don't need to be polite." Li Jiancheng said, and smiled to return the courtesy, but Li Jiancheng didn't stand up, didn't even move his buttocks, and didn't let Li Shimin sit down.

Li Yuanji, Chai Shao, and Liu Wenjing next to him looked at Li Shimin expressionlessly and didn't speak. In this way, the atmosphere between the two sides seemed very disharmonious.

Li Shimin didn't dare to argue. He glanced at Cheng Yaojin on the execution post and the eldest grandson Wuji and Gao Shilian who were tied up here. Li Shimin had no choice but to speak, "Brother, what's going on?"

Li Jian sneered and said, "What's the matter? Second brother, I still want to ask you."

Li Shimin knew that Li Jiancheng was looking for trouble, but he could not turn his back on him because his mind was on Yang Yong now, so Li Shimin explained patiently: "Brother, Cheng Yaojin is disheveled and disorderly in court. , After investigation by the Ministry of Officials, this person is suspected of despising the king and has committed the crime of deceiving the king, so he reported it to the Ministry of Punishment, paraded through the streets yesterday, and executed today, but why did the elder brother tie up the elder grandson and the elder Gao?"

After listening to Li Shimin's words, Li Yuanji couldn't help but say, "Second brother, don't just listen to one side of the story, Cheng Yaojin is the general who surrendered when the second brother was sent to Daxing City. Since he surrendered to my Tang Dynasty, how could he despise the king? What? Why does he want to deceive the emperor? From my younger brother’s point of view, this person is a bit slovenly. He was caught by some people with ulterior motives to make a big fuss and label him indiscriminately. This is to eliminate dissidents and retaliate against Zhongliang. ?"

"Well said, King Qi is so right, this son-in-law thinks that this kind of person should not only be tied up, but also killed!" Chai Shao chimed in.

Li Jiancheng didn't speak, but nodded leisurely, expressing his approval of the two.

Li Yuanji's words directly pointed at Li Shimin's weakness. On the surface, he was reprimanding Changsun Wuji and Gao Shilian, but in fact, he was pointing his sword at Li Shimin. Of course Li Shimin could hear it, and he also knew that this Li Yuanji was no longer the one who obeyed his words at the beginning. Little brother, but determined to stand on Li Jiancheng's side and fight against him.There is also this Chai Shao, who is also helping them out, beating side drums.

Thinking of this, Li Shimin said to Li Yuanji and Chai Shao, "Fourth brother, Brother Chai, it seems that you two have misunderstood. Your eldest grandson and Mr. Gao are performing their duties and responsibilities within their authority, and there is nothing wrong with them." In the case of deviance, Cheng Yaojin's facts are clear and the evidence is conclusive, they acted impartially, how can it be regarded as labeling indiscriminately and excluding dissidents? Not to mention retaliation, they are at most business-like."

Li Jiancheng said: "Second brother, since it is a matter of business, does it have the will of the emperor? You know, Cheng Yaojin is an official appointed by the imperial court, and the emperor Youwuwei was appointed by the emperor himself. How can he be killed if he says he can kill him? If there is no royal father's will, the two of them will act recklessly, and this palace will punish them for the royal father!"

Li Shimin smiled, and took out the imperial decree from his arms, "Under the imperial father's imperial decree!"

Li Jiancheng, Li Yuanji, Chai Shao, and Liu Wenjing were surprised when they saw that Li Shimin really had an imperial edict, and quickly got up and knelt down to accept the edict.
