Martial Arts: I am in the Ming Cult and I am building a dynasty

Everyone underestimated Li Jiancheng, the eldest son of the Li family who usually kept a low profile.

In fact, in the history of Blue Star, Li Jiancheng was a very capable person.

As the founding prince of the Tang Dynasty, Li Jiancheng seemed to have made no contribution during the entire founding of the Tang Dynasty. He became the prince of the Tang Dynasty only by taking advantage of being the eldest son.

Everyone believed that 70% to 80% of the entire Tang Dynasty was conquered by Li Shimin alone.

But no one has ever noticed that before the Xuanwu Gate Incident, Li Jiancheng's power in the court had firmly suppressed Li Shimin. At its peak, he even almost dismembered the entire Tian Ce Palace.

Even a great man like Emperor Taizong of Tang was forced by Li Jiancheng to plan the Xuanwu Gate Incident.

Li Jiancheng was not an incompetent person, he was just not as cruel as Li Shimin.

In this Kyushu world.

Li Jiancheng seemed to be equally inferior to Li Shimin in terms of his potential, but as the eldest son of the Li family, Li Jiancheng was able to handle family affairs on behalf of Li Yuan after his departure.

This in itself is an affirmation of Li Jiancheng by the entire Li family.

All we can say is that as the eldest son, Li Jiancheng wanted everything to be stable and to be right.

In this way, Li Shimin, who had just won by surprise and was good at using risky strategies, appeared even more outstanding and dazzling.

The truth is not seen on ordinary days.

Only in the midst of blazing flames can the true nature of gold be revealed.

Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin were both outstanding men. The only difference between them was the word "ruthless".

Just when Li Jiancheng and Li Xiuning were drinking together.

The turmoil in the Li family did not last too long. As a team of snow dragon riders entered the Li Mansion, Changsun Wuji quickly brought the rather embarrassed Li Yuanji to the backyard of the Li family.

When the former good friends met, the situation was a little awkward for a moment.

After all, Li Jiancheng and Li Xiuning were both good people. After being stunned for a moment, they quickly reacted.

Li Jiancheng showed an awkward but polite smile and said, "Brother Wuji, it's been a while since we last met. Brother Shi has become even more amazing."

Zhang Sun Wuji smiled and replied, "I am just one step ahead. Brother Jiancheng is the eldest son of the Li family. Once he is freed from his shackles, he will surely soar like a dragon and achieve great things."

Li Jiancheng's mouth twitched, and he said, "Then I'll have to ask Brother Wuji to take good care of me."

The two sides exchanged some commercial praises.

After the greetings, Changsun Wuji had the bound Li Yuanji pushed to Li Jiancheng's side. His face became much more solemn, and he said, "Brother Jiancheng, I believe you all are clear about what happened today."

"Your Highness was so kind that he let bygones be bygones and arranged an alliance with your Li family. However, on this auspicious day, someone from your Li family openly disobeyed your Highness's strict order. Your Li family needs to give us an explanation for this matter."

The tradition of aristocratic families can be fought but not broken.

Li Jiancheng understood what Changsun Wuji meant, and so did Li Xiuning.

There was no need for Changsun Wuji to make his words too clear, as everyone in the Li family knew what the other party meant.

Li Jiancheng and Li Xiuning felt heavy-hearted and were thinking about it.

However, at this moment, Li Yuanji jumped out and said, "Brother Wuji, I will report and expose that there are many aristocratic families in Chang'an who are dissatisfied with Your Highness. Can I change my life?"

Li Jiancheng: “…”

Li Xiuning: "..."

I really underestimated the despicable and shameless nature of my third brother.

Li Jiancheng and Li Xiuning were extremely annoyed.

However, Changsun Wuji waved his hand and used his aura to suppress the two men, preventing them from speaking.

Then, Changsun Wuji looked at Li Yuanji with a smile and said, "Brother Yuanji, if you only mentioned the Guo, Liu, and An families, I'm afraid you won't be able to survive."

Li Yuanji's eyes widened and he asked, "You actually know all this?"

Changsun Wuji smiled and said nothing.

Li Yuanji's eyes turned and he said, "Brother Wuji, I will confess and admit my guilt. I am also willing to give up the Li family's secret passage, property, treasure house, etc. Can I exchange it for a way to live?"

Zhang Sun Wuji looked melancholy and said, "Brother Yuanji, you are wrong."

Li Yuanji frowned and said, "Brother Wuji, what's the matter?"

Zhang Sun Wuji shook his head and said, "Your Highness has just taken over Guanzhong. You, the Li Clan, are a powerful clan. He has locked you up in Chang'an City in order to make you surrender, like the people of the Dugu Clan and the Yuan Clan."

"The marriage you decided a few days ago is indeed a brilliant plan. After it is completed, His Highness will restrict you from leaving the city, but he will never harm your lives."

"Even if His Highness completely controls Guanzhong, it is not impossible for him to let you go as long as the Li family offers some benefits."

"But today, on the day of the wedding, Brother Yuanji fled Chang'an and injured people along the way, which was a disgrace to Your Highness. It also made the Guanzhong family, which was a little more stable, have many thoughts again."

"You tell me, how can His Highness let you off so easily? He needs to establish his authority by taking the lives of the Li family members."

"Once you die, will everything in the Li family be able to escape?"

After being frightened by Changsun Wuji, Li Yuanji's face turned pale. He looked around and saw that Madam Dou, Li Jiancheng, Li Xiuning, Li Zhiyun, Li Shentong, Li Daozon and other members of the Li family were all captured in one net.

But things went wrong this time. It was all Li Shimin's fault. He instigated me to run away.

That’s not right. Where is Li Shimin?

Li Yuanji's face turned fierce, and he said, "Brother Wuji, I'm reporting this. This was all Li Shimin's idea. I was used by him. I know where Li Shimin is hiding in the mansion. Can I change my life?"

Zhang Sun Wuji shook his head and said, "It's fake. It's just a substitute. The second young master Li is quite capable. He left the city seven days ago. He must have returned to the Li family in Taiyuan or headed to Luoyang City."

"Speaking of which, Mr. Li's plan is truly amazing. He used fakes to replace real people, and used you as multiple targets to attract everyone's attention. The substitutes are quiet and taciturn, so people can ignore them."

"But after angering His Highness, your lives are in danger. This is a bit too cruel."

Li Yuanji was so angry that he was shaking all over, and his clever thoughts spread.

His Highness Yang Zhao is such a good person. He just wants to sleep with his sister Li Xiuning. What bad intentions could he have?

It’s all that damn Li Shimin’s fault. He clearly intended to anger Your Highness and kill someone with a borrowed knife.

If you can escape, why not take yourself with you?

By the way, Li Shimin must be afraid that after I return to Taiyuan, I will divide the other party’s power. My goodness, he is going to kill me and others and become the future head of the Li family.

Damn Li Shimin, don’t even think about getting what I can’t get.

Li Yuanji was determined and said, "Brother Wuji, I know a lot about the Li family's arrangements and the family's background. If I tell them, can I get a chance to live?"

Zhang Sun Wuji's eyes flashed, and he asked, "Really?"

Li Yuanji said: "It is absolutely true."

Zhang Sun Wuji smiled and said, "Brother Yuanji, you saved the entire Li family."

Chapter 431 Li Yuanji betrays the Guandong family

The Li family has accumulated wealth for hundreds of years, and among this generation, there are indeed many geniuses.

Li Jiancheng, Li Shimin and Li Xiuning can all be described as outstanding individuals who shine wherever they are placed.

Only Li Yuanji, the smartest person in the Li family, had a very unique way of thinking.

Almost everyone present could see that Changsun Wuji's words were misleading, but Changsun Wuji had people suppress their opportunities to speak or refute.

But Li Yuanji took it seriously.

Listening to Zhangsun Wuji's words, Li Yuanji was confused for a moment, and then asked: "Brother Wuji, what do you mean by this? Why don't you tell me in detail?"

Zhang Sun Wuji's acting was smooth, and he said seriously, "Brother Yuanji, why are you so confused? If you hand over the family's arrangements and foundation, your family will no longer be a threat to His Highness."

"Once your family is no longer threatened, your sister is so beautiful."

"Your Highness is a reasonable person. Would you kill a meritorious official like you who has turned from darkness to light just for a family that poses no threat?"

"Even everyone in your Li family can survive."

"You saved everyone's lives. Didn't that mean you saved the entire Li family?"

"If I were the head of the Li family, you would have to take the position of the next generation head of the Li family."

After all this nonsense, Li Yuanji's face was flushed.

At this time, Li Jiancheng, Li Xiuning and others kept winking at Li Yuanji, telling him not to be fooled.

But in Li Yuanji's view, these were his elder brother and elder sister, who placed all their hopes on him.

However, Li Yuanji was still hesitant about betraying his family.

After a pause, Li Yuanji said with some embarrassment, "Brother Wuji, it's not that I don't want to hand over the family information to Your Highness, but I really don't know much. However, I can tell Your Highness that in my Li family, there is also a fourth brother, Li Yuanba, who is born with the power of the four symbols, a natural martial saint, and is also taught by the world-famous teacher Ziyang Zhenren..."

Zhang Sun Wuji raised his eyebrows and said, "Brother Yuanji, are you threatening His Highness? If you want to do so, then I can only handle the matter impartially."

Li Yuanji was shocked when he saw that Changsun Wuji was about to mobilize the Snow Dragon Cavalry.

Instantly, Li Yuanji could no longer care about his concerns. An idea suddenly occurred to him, and he said, "No, no, no, Brother Wuji, what I mean is that the Master Ziyang is a famous teacher that the Guandong family has just found in order to win over our Li family. I am the eldest son of the Li family and cannot betray my family, but I can reveal some secrets of the Guandong family to Brother Wuji..."

Li Yuanji was indeed a very smart man. He thought that since he couldn't betray his own family, he might as well betray someone else's.

According to common sense, this is the most beneficial decision for the Li family.

After all, if you don't do it for yourself, you will be punished by heaven and earth.

But for aristocratic families with extremely complex networks of relationships, this kind of behavior is most undesirable. Even if they can make a living by doing so, the reputation and credibility of the entire family will be ruined.

Only a smart man like Li Yuanji could think of such a way to save himself.

Even Changsun Wuji was stunned after hearing Li Yuanji's words.

Then, Changsun Wuji felt a burst of ecstasy in his heart.

This is such a pleasant surprise.

Li Yuanji's betrayal of a group of Kanto noble families had a much greater effect than betraying his own people.

Li Yuanji betrayed his own family, which at most caused a rift within the family.

But if it was Li Yuanji who betrayed the people of the Guandong family, it would be a hard cut between the Li family and those Guandong families.

Zhangsun Wuji was overjoyed in his heart, but he remained calm on the surface. He said, "Well, Brother Yuanji cares about his family and is a filial person. Wuji admires him very much. Tell me some secrets of the Guandong family. Wuji will definitely plead with His Highness to spare your Li family."

Li Yuanji was overjoyed when he heard this and asked, "Really?"

Zhang Sun Wuji said, "Of course I take it seriously. Recently, some Guandong noble families have been spreading bad things about Your Highness, which makes Your Highness very unhappy. However, we cannot send troops out of Guanzhong in the short term. If the secret that Brother Yuanji mentioned is valuable enough, Your Highness might be happy to release your whole family out of Guanzhong on the spot."

Li Yuanji immediately became excited and flattered: "The Guandong family is so stubborn and stubborn. It's really hateful."

Zhang Sun Wuji also said bitterly: "Yes, relying on the relationship left by their ancestors, those Guandong noble families are extremely annoying, especially the Zhaojun Li family. Well, I can't say more."

Li Yuanji's eyes lit up and he said, "I know the Zhaojun Li family. Their ancestor has not lived long. A few years ago, he was shameless enough to try to make friends with my Li family, but was driven out by my father."

"Besides that, the Zhaojun Li family hid some Zhao Knight training method, bribed my second brother, changed the name, and organized it into some bullshit Black Armor Army."

"Zhai Rang, Wang Bodang and others from Guandong Wagangzhai are the running dogs of the Zhaojun Li family."

"There are also the Zhaojun Li family and the Qinghe Cui family..."

Li Yuanji did not know a lot of secrets about the Guandong families, and they could not be considered his real trump cards, but they were extremely widely distributed, and there were even some secret strongholds hidden in the Guanzhong area.

Listening to Li Yuanji's words, Changsun Wuji kept them in mind silently.

However, Li Jiancheng, Li Xiuning and others beside them had dejected faces, as if they had lost all their spirits, and sat down on the spot almost in despair.

The Li family has enjoyed prestige and credibility among the aristocratic families for hundreds of years.

Not to mention that it was completely destroyed in one day, but more than half of it was chopped off by Li Yuanji.

After Li Yuanji finished his report, Changsun Wuji praised Li Yuanji highly and then withdrew all the Snow Dragon Cavalry from Li's Mansion.

Even the Zuo Yiwei army and the Demon Sect spies outside the Li Mansion were completely withdrawn.

The plan of alienation went more smoothly than Changsun Wuji had imagined.

Even this super assist from Li Yuanji was enough to have a huge impact on the unification of the three Lis, causing the Guandong family to create an invisible resistance to the Li family.

This is much better than alienating the three sons of the Li family.

In this case, the restrictions and blockades on the Li family are of no concern at all.

But after Changsun Wuji left.

The Li family's backyard was caught in an unprecedented strange atmosphere.

Li Yuanji boasted that he was the hero and savior of the Li family, and looked very proud.
