The sky was just getting bright in the morning, and the water mist filled the Taiye Pond. It was impossible to see everything in the Taiye Pond. The Xuanwu Gate next to the Taiye Pond was even quieter, with nothing out of the ordinary. There were only a few gatekeepers standing there.

.Keeping watch over the Xuanwu Gate with sharp eyes, guarding the supreme being in the palace.

Suddenly, the sound of horse hoofbeats came slowly, and the horseshoes hit the blue bricks, making a clicking sound, which was crisp and clear to the ears. Several soldiers guarding Xuanwu Gate looked up and saw a dozen cavalry guarding them.

The two horses came slowly. They knew that the two horses leading them were seated by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the King of Qi. At that moment, they did not dare to neglect, and quickly opened the city gate and let everyone enter the Xuanwu Gate.

"Brother, I'm afraid I came early today. Look, there's no one in Xuanwu Sect yet. That kid Chang He didn't come out to greet you, His Highness, the Crown Prince. We'll see how I deal with him later." Li Yuanji looked forward.

Feiyang, with a proud look on his face, finally became the commander-in-chief of an army of hundreds of thousands. More importantly, under his command were all the generals and wise men of the Tang Dynasty. It was also possible to weaken Li Shimin's plan.

It has been achieved. After this battle, he will become the second Li Shimin, commanding all the Tang armies. From then on, he will have the strength and opportunity to aspire to the throne of the crown prince.

"What Yuan Ji said is true. Why didn't Chang He come out to meet the orphan? He has been waiting here for a long time on weekdays." Li Jiancheng glanced around and frowned. He was different from the idiot Li Yuanji. Before he became

Before the prince, he was a general. He followed Li Yuan and went to the battlefield of Goryeo. He also fought against Wei Daoer and other heroes. He also experienced life and death on the battlefield. Although he has been a prince for many years, his alertness has dropped a lot, but

It's not that there's nothing wrong. As soon as he saw something unusual in Xuanwu Sect, he secretly became wary.

On the tower not far across from them, Li Shimin watched coldly, looking at the two brothers Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji who were gradually approaching. However, he had mixed feelings in his heart. These two were also his brothers, but because of a

Zhang Huang, now they want to kill each other. However, if he could choose again, Li Shimin would do it again, because if the Tang Dynasty wants to dominate the world and benefit the people of the world, only people like Li Shimin can do it

, Li Jiancheng can’t do it, and Li Yuanji can’t do it even more.

"Action!" Li Shimin said lightly. Qin Qiong beside him frowned, but his eyes looked towards the Taiye Pond on one side, which was still covered in thick fog. He was a warrior. A warrior's sense of crisis was quite strong.

. He clearly felt that there was a giant beast hidden on the calm lake, looking coldly at the Xuanwu Gate with wide eyes. As long as the time was right, it would launch the most powerful attack. But this was just him

feeling, so he just glanced at Li Shimin and opened his mouth, but did not speak.

"Brother, look at Linhu Palace, it's strange today. There isn't even a servant." Li Yuanji suddenly smiled and pointed to Linhu Palace next to Taiye Pond.

Li Jiancheng looked over and saw that there was no servant in front of the Linhu Palace. Thinking of the feeling just now, his face changed and he showed a hint of panic and said loudly: "Let's go back to the East Palace quickly, Li Shimin is going to rebel.

"As he said that, he waited for Pegasus to rush back.

"Prince, brother, go slow." Before Li Yuanji could react, he heard someone shouting loudly from the Xuanwu Gate. He also saw hundreds of people rushing out of the Xuanwu Gate. The leader was wearing a golden helmet and golden armor, carrying a long bow.

Holding a long spear in his hand. Who else could he be if he wasn't Li Shimin?

"Li Shimin, you are so brave." Li Yuanji looked horrified. He looked at Li Shimin with hundreds of people in armor behind him. He didn't know what Li Shimin was thinking. He didn't dare to neglect at that moment. He quickly drew his bow and arrow,

Prepare to shoot Li Shimin to death. This is the same as his usual hobby of hunting. Bows and arrows are essential weapons. Unfortunately, today, it may be because he has a bad hand, or because he is too nervous. Although the brothers are not intolerant, they are in the same boat

, but it seemed that they had never expected such a scene. They did not expect that Li Shimin would actually launch it first. Therefore, Li Yuanji's bow and arrows failed repeatedly. He could not draw the bow and could not nock the arrow...

Li Shimin could see clearly in the distance. He lowered his long spear, took his long bow, and prepared to shoot at Li Yuanji. Suddenly he saw Li Jiancheng preparing to hit his horse to escape. His heart moved, and his bow and arrow suddenly turned in another direction.

Then he loosened his fingers, and the long arrow flew out of his hand and flew toward Li Jiancheng's throat. Li Jiancheng was caught off guard by this arrow. He was stunned, and he only heard the sound of strings. Then the arrow penetrated the air, carrying a breeze, and lightly

It passed through his throat gently. At this moment, he heard the sound of his throat bones breaking.

When did the second brother's archery skills become so good? Li Jiancheng looked at Li Shimin with his bow and arrow in the distance in surprise, with a trace of doubt in his eyes. This is his brother and his lifelong rival. Look at this arrow, the movement is

It was so relaxed and skillful, and looked extremely chic. Li Jiancheng fell to the ground with a trace of doubt, his eyes were wide open, and he could not understand until his death why Li Shimin drew his bow and arrow so neatly.

Li Shimin's sharp arrow broke through the heavy fog in front of Xuanwu Gate, setting off a fight in front of Xuanwu Gate. Li Shimin's ambush ambush and launched an attack on Li Yuanji and other dozen cavalrymen.

"Li Shimin, accept your fate." Li Yuanji waved the long spear in his hand, knocked the arrow down to the ground, drove his horse and rushed towards Li Shimin. He saw that the opponent was far superior in number, and Xuanwu

The door had been closed again. It was obvious that the other party had been prepared for a long time. It was impossible for him and others to escape. At that moment, regardless of the danger, he rushed towards Li Shimin. This meant that he had to use his back before dying.

"Ah!" Li Shimin was about to counterattack when the horse he sat down suddenly neighed. Li Shimin almost fell off the horse. Li Shimin was so frightened that he screamed and almost fell off the horse. If it weren't for his years of cavalry career that kept him tight in times of crisis.

He had to hold on to the reins, otherwise he would have fallen off the horse. But even so, Li Shimin also fell into a crisis state, because his horse had lost control and ran like crazy, crashing into the woods on one side.

Li Yuanji saw it clearly and couldn't help laughing. This Li Shimin really has a way to heaven and you can't take it. There is no door to hell, but he broke in. He was so immortal that he actually bumped into his hand. Immediately, he clapped his horse up and held the ball in his hand.

The long bow was thrown towards Li Shimin's neck, obviously preparing to strangle Li Shimin alive.

"Li Yuanji, look at the arrow." Suddenly there was a thunderbolt in the air, and then a sharp arrow came through the air, hitting Li Yuanji's vest. Li Yuanji's eyes suddenly lost their sparkle, and he looked at Li Shimin with an unwilling expression.

Li Shimin's heart trembled when he saw it, and he couldn't help but touch the cold sweat on his forehead.

"Your Highness, are you okay!" Qin Qiong rushed over.

"Thank you Qin Qing for saving your life." It turned out that at the critical moment, Qin Qiong shot Li Yuanji to death and saved Li Shimin's life. Otherwise, even if Li Shimin got rid of Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, he would not be lucky enough to ascend the throne of the emperor.

"Your Highness, we cannot stay here for long. We should quickly enter the Xuanwu Gate. Once the people from the Prince's Mansion and Prince Qi's Mansion learn about the ambush of Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, they will lead their troops to come to the rescue. We must occupy favorable terrain.

While resisting, they sent someone to request an imperial edict from His Majesty, asking His Majesty to announce the appointment of His Highness as the Crown Prince and to declare Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji guilty of treason. Only in this way will they withdraw their troops and ensure the safety of His Highness." Qin Qiong quickly dissuaded him.

Li Shimin thought for a moment, nodded, and said: "What the general said is true. Let's go to the Xuanwu Gate and ask Chang He to close the Xuanwu Gate in case the guards from the East Palace and Prince Qi's Mansion come to rescue us." With that, he prepared to leave.

More than a hundred people entered the Xuanwu Gate.

"Haha, King Qin, you are so courageous. You actually killed His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and King Qi Qiansui. It seems that your intention to rebel is clearly exposed. I admire your courage very much!" Suddenly, a figure appeared on the tower of Xuanwu Gate.

A pair of arrows in black came. The leader was handsome and handsome, but his face was pale, as if he had not recovered from a serious illness...

"Lu Zhaoci?" Li Shimin's face changed drastically, and Qin Qiong finally knew where the uneasiness came from. Looking at the black-clad archery team beside Lu Zhaoci, it was obvious that these people had been ambushing the Xuanwu Gate for a long time. These hundreds of people

All the human troops gathered inside the Xuanwu Gate, and the only place there was the Taiye Pond filled with thick fog.

"After all, I didn't count you, you cunning person hiding in the dark." Li Shimin gritted his teeth and pointed at Lu Zhaoci and cursed. He hated it so much! Now that he finally won the victory, the prince

The position was only a stone's throw away from him, but with the appearance of Lu Zhaoci, he no longer had any chance. He knew that Lu Zhaoci would not let him go, and today he had only one option: death.

"Huh, Li Shimin, you understand. Is the world of the Tang Dynasty really the world of your Li family?"

I, Lu Zhaoci, helped your Li Clan capture it. Without me, Lu Zhaoci, how could you, Li Shimin, be able to become Tiance General and lead the entire army? It is simply a delusion."

"Haha, yes, you are right." Li Shimin laughed loudly and said: "The world has become overwhelming, do you still want to stand up? As long as my father is here, there is no possibility of you ascending the throne."

"Humph, Yang Jian was so wise back then, and the country was rich and the people were strong, but he was not the second generation to die. You Li Tang had only been established for a few years, how could you be so kind to the people? Do you think these people would be angry with you because of the demise of the Li clan?

Am I, Lu Zhaoci, dissatisfied? You are too naive." Lu Zhaoci snorted coldly.

"Lu Zhaoci, if you want to kill, just kill, don't talk nonsense." Cheng Yaojin looked at the hundreds of general guards around him, all with their bows and arrows drawn, and a little bit of cold light shrouding his vitals.

"General Cheng, I will not kill you. Not only you, but everyone in the Qin Palace will not kill you." Lu Zhaoci looked at the two of them deeply, and then said to Li Shimin: "Prince Qin, emperors have emperors.

The way to die is to commit suicide! I will not kill your descendants, leaving a sliver of blood for you."

"Thank you, General." A wry smile appeared on Li Shimin's lips. After years of hard work and hard planning, he was almost done, but he didn't expect that the work would fall short, and now even his life would be lost here. This is not an irony.

Li Shimin was even more desperate. Looking at the sword in his hand, he was ready to commit suicide.

"His Royal Highness King Qin." Upon seeing this, Qin Qiong and other generals of Tiance Mansion knelt on the ground and cried bitterly.

"Generals, I leave Shimin's family to you." Li Shimin closed his eyes, the sword in his hand gently slid across his neck, a line of blood slowly shot out, and his tall body slowly fell to the ground.

Lu Zhaoci on the tower saw it clearly and sighed deeply. His Royal Highness, the world-famous King of Qin, and Emperor Taizong of Tang, who had left a profound mark in the history of his previous life, finally died under the Xuanwu Sect, and the snipe and the clam fought over each other for the fisherman's profit.

, Li Shimin was not a fisherman, but it was Lu Zhaoci who became a fisherman. This guy whose soul came from later generations, evaluated the records in the history books, and took advantage at the most critical moment, killing Li Shimin in one fell swoop, and getting rid of him at the same time.

After seeing Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, there seemed to be a broad road in front of them. However, Lu Zhaoci did not show any joy on his face.

"Zhao Ying, suppressed General Qin and General Cheng as well as the generals of Tiance Mansion. Ordered Chang He to close the Xuanwu Gate, ordered Ma Sanbao, and He Panren to guard the palace. Ordered Wei Chigong to cut off Li Shimin's head and go to Taiye Pond.

, protect His Majesty, and ask him to issue an edict to declare Li Shimin's rebellion. In order to calm the morale of the East Palace and the Qi King's army." Lu Zhaoci took a deep breath.

"The last general takes orders."

"The last general takes orders."

The generals around Lu Zhaoci accepted the order one after another, with excitement on their faces. Now that Li Yuan's three legitimate sons have died here, the position of prince is vacant. Lu Zhaoci is in charge of the defense of the capital, and it is extremely possible for him to become the prince.

Once Lu Zhaoci becomes the crown prince, the status of people like him will also rise a lot.

Sure enough, as soon as Chang He closed the Xuanwu Gate, he heard a cry of killing coming from outside. However, after hearing the news, the people from the East Palace and Prince Qi's Mansion came over to kill them, clamoring to attack the Xuanwu Gate to rescue Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji.

people.

"General, there are many thieves. General, the body has not recovered yet, so please stay away for now." Chang He looked at the thousands of elites under the city. These people were full of evil spirits. I'm afraid they were not simple things. He couldn't help but said loudly.

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. They can't attack the Xuanwu Gate." Lu Zhaoci consoled him.

"Otherwise, throwing the bodies of Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji out now may be able to weaken the opponent's military morale. I see that these men all have fierce looks, and most of the weapons in their hands belong to rangers. I'm afraid they are the long-range military base built by His Highness the Crown Prince."

Lin Jun, although these people have been trained a lot, they are still a mob. I think they will disperse as soon as they see the bodies of Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji." Chang He said cautiously.
