He turned away, no longer looking at Li Xiuning.
"I'm going to find my older brother."
Li Xiuning glanced at Li Yuan, then walked away without looking back.
Li Yuan did not stop it; he could no longer stop it at this point.
Whether it's her two sons or her daughter.
Does he really want to kill one of his own sons with his own hands?
Or perhaps he was worried that his imperial power was threatened, after all, the example of Yang Jian was still fresh in everyone's mind!
Whether it was Li Shimin or Li Jiancheng who became powerful, it was something he didn't want to see.
Therefore, balance is the best choice.
Li Xiuning went to see Li Jiancheng, but Li Jiancheng was equally vague in his response.
He then went to see Li Shimin.
Li Shimin looked at Li Xiuning and said, "Second sister, if I don't fight for it, none of us in the Qin Prince's Mansion will survive."
The three men, father and sons, immediately thought of Yang Guang's family.
Li Xiuning returned to Lin Zhu's side, looking dejected. She looked at Lin Zhu and asked, "Why is this happening?"
“Because of power,” Lin Zhu said calmly. “Everyone wants supreme power, and once they have it, they don’t want to lose it. That’s why Ying Zheng and Liu Che pursued immortality back then.”
Li Xiuning said, "Is there really absolutely no way to salvage this situation?"
"No." Lin Zhu shook his head and patted Li Xiuning on the back. "You should cultivate for a while. Everything will settle down soon. You've done what you needed to do."
Under the gentle influence of Lin Zhu's magical power, Li Xiuning slowly fell asleep.
Not long after, the Xuanwu Gate Incident began, in which Li Shimin killed Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji and forced Li Yuan to abdicate.
Li Yuan never expected that his balancing act would lead to such a situation.
Li Shimin was even more ruthless than Yang Guang; he killed Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji in full view of everyone without any attempt to conceal it.
Upon seeing the heads of Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, Li Yuan was stunned. He looked at Yuchi Gong and roared, "Traitorous subjects, how dare you!"
Having said that, the Golden Dragon's destiny erupted, causing the fortune of the Li Tang dynasty to press down on Yuchi Gong.
"Father!" Li Shimin stepped forward, his body radiating purple light. His destiny was four times stronger than Li Yuan's, and the fortune of the Tang Dynasty was bestowed upon him.
A purple-gold divine dragon flew out and forced Li Yuan's golden dragon back into his body.
"You, you, you also have the destiny of an emperor." Li Yuan was greatly shocked.
Li Shimin knelt on one knee and said, "Your subject had no choice but to do this. Your elder brother and third brother have been too harsh on you."
As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes.
Li Yuan staggered back two steps. "How could things have turned out like this?"
Li Shimin kowtowed heavily to the ground, "I beg Father Emperor to make me Crown Prince."
Because Lady Dou did not die young, Li Shimin did not try to pull off Li Yuan's clothes at this time.
Above the main hall, a purple-gold dragon was still circling.
Li Yuan looked at the head on the ground, then at Li Shimin, feeling immense sorrow. His voice was hoarse as he said, "If you had said earlier that you were destined to be an emperor, why would I have made your elder brother the emperor?"
He plopped down on the ground and after a long while said, "Go back now. The imperial edict appointing you as the crown prince will be issued tomorrow."
Li Shimin got what he wanted and kowtowed to Li Yuan, saying, "Your subject thanks Your Majesty."
As Li Shimin was about to leave the Wude Hall, Li Yuan raised his hand and said, "Second Prince, can you spare the lives of your nephews?"
Li Shimin paused in his steps as he walked out. "Father, it's too late."
At this time, the mansions of Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji were filled with blood, and only some female relatives were still alive.
After saying this, Li Shimin walked out of the Wude Hall without looking back, while Yuchi Gong stayed behind to guard Li Yuan.
Lin Zhu watched the turbulent changes in Li Tang's fortune and sighed, "You tried to play the balancing act, but you messed it up!"
Both Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin were very talented people, so why would they want to be manipulated at will?
Finally, one side must die for the other to win.
Li Yuan had actually seen this point, but he dared not think about it, nor did he want to.
The next day, Li Shimin successfully ascended to the throne and became the crown prince.
Not long after, the Northern Turkic chieftain observed the change in the fortunes of the Tang Dynasty and instructed the Khagan of the Northern Turks to unite with various northern tribes and use their own fortunes to break through the barrier of the Tang Dynasty's fortunes, penetrate deep into the Central Plains, and begin burning, killing, and looting.
Lin Zhu noticed this situation and exclaimed, "Damn it, I have no restrictions on my actions now! How dare you alien races do this!"
One-tenth of the fortune of Jambudvipa transformed into a golden dragon, carrying the bamboo forest to the border.
Magical spells and supernatural powers will be infinitely weakened within the range of human fortune in the Southern Continent, but martial arts supernatural powers will not.
"Die!"
With a single palm strike, the power of the palm condensed within a radius of five hundred miles, annihilating a hundred million Turkic soldiers in one blow.
Without good fortune, Lin Zhu's merits would definitely plummet.
However, because of the orthodox fortune of Jambudvipa, he not only did not lose merit, but his fortune was even enhanced.
After all, killing the Turks was tantamount to saving the people of the Tang Dynasty, so naturally some people were grateful to them.
Every time Lin Zhu annihilates a Turkic army, his luck increases slightly.
At the same time, a portion of the Tang Dynasty's fortune flowed to him.
At this time, Li Shimin had already ascended the throne and immediately realized that some of the fortune that had been bestowed upon him had been lost, which puzzled him.
After thinking about it for a long time, he felt that it might be because of the Xuanwu Gate Incident that his ascension to the throne was illegitimate.
On the other hand, Buddhism is also scratching its head.
Chapter 926 Assassination of the King
Lingshan, Daleiyin Temple.
On a whim, the Buddha addressed the assembled Buddhas, saying, "Now that Jambudvipa has been initially settled and the journey to the West is about to begin, let us see how things go."
All the Buddhas said in unison, "We respectfully request the Buddha to perform the Dharma."
The harmony is grand and majestic.
The Buddha held up a flower with his right hand and pointed forward, using the fortune of Buddhism to counteract the fortune of the Tang Dynasty. He then saw a golden dragon flying in the sky above Jambudvipa.
The Mysterious Mirror floated on the dome of the Great Thunder Temple, where all the Buddhas and Guanyin witnessed Li Shimin's ascension to the throne and the appointment of Empress Zhangsun Wugou as empress.
Li Yuan, now the retired emperor, continued to reside in the Taiji Palace.
Seeing this, the Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and Arhats of Mount Ling were overjoyed. After planning for hundreds of thousands of years, the time to reap the rewards had finally come.
This time, Tathagata was able to attain the Chaos Dao Fruit, and may even go further to become the Lord of Ten Thousand Buddhas.
And these people will also be able to further improve their own cultivation.
I don't seek a major breakthrough, I just hope to break through to a small level.
But then, Buddha frowned, made calculations with his fingers, and his eyes shone with golden light.
However, in the Xuan Guang Mirror, only about 80% to 90% of the fortune of the Southern Continent was visible, while a little over 10% of the fortune remained unaccounted for.
Furthermore, the fortune belonging to the Li Tang dynasty is gradually slipping away.
"The fortunes of Jambudvipa have changed. Let this old monk see what the situation is, and I would be grateful for the assistance of the Buddhas."
Even Buddha himself could not predict the future of a continent's destiny.
Upon hearing this, all the Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and Arhats in the Vulture Peak transferred their magical power to the Tathagata, along with ninety percent of the fortune of the Western Continent.
The most important thing is luck.
With this assistance, Tathagata used his great power to bless the Mysterious Mirror.
In the Mysterious Mirror, the overall fortune of the Southern Continent is divided into three parts.
A portion of it naturally belonged to the Tang Dynasty, accounting for more than 70%.
The other part, slightly more than one-tenth, belonged to the countries surrounding the Tang Dynasty.
The last point was just over 10%, which was the golden dragon of fortune beneath Lin Zhu.
As Lin Zhu wreaked havoc across the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty's fortune continued to flow towards him.
A Buddha who did not recognize Lin Zhu asked in surprise, "Who is this person, who can actually control the fortune of an entire continent?"
"He is the inspector of the underworld in the human world, named Lin Zhu." Guanyin introduced him, then looked at Tathagata, "Buddha, this child occupies so much fortune, I'm afraid our Buddhist plans will be affected."
“What Guanyin said is correct.” Tathagata nodded, but he didn’t have a good solution for the time being.
Ran Deng slowly spoke, "Could it be that we need to add another member to the westward journey team?"
If it were someone else, they could simply use some means to either send them into the cycle of reincarnation or forcibly convert them.
But this is Lin Zhu, and behind him stands Hou Tu, and half of Nuwa.
"That's not necessarily a bad thing," said Maitreya, the future Buddha, as if nothing was wrong.
He is the Buddha of the future, not the Buddha of the present; that's how it will be for him for the rest of his life anyway.
After closing his eyes and remaining silent for a long time, the Buddha said, "Let this old monk think about it for a moment."
Chang'an City, the Eastern Palace.
Just as Li Shimin finished his coronation ceremony, a soldier came to report, "Reporting, urgent military situation."
The emperor and his ministers, gathered in the Eastern Palace, were startled and immediately summoned the military intelligence envoy.
"What urgent military situation is it? Report it quickly."
"Your Majesty, the Turkic Khan Jieli is leading an army of eight billion barbarians, burning, killing, and looting all the way, and is approaching Guanzhong."
"What?! This Jieli has some nerve!" Yuchi Gong shouted, and was about to kill Jieli.
Before everyone could process this news, another urgent military report arrived.
