28. The Wind Comes
Chang'an City, the Imperial Palace.
Late at night, dozens of practitioners sat around a gorgeous palace, each of whom was full of tension and trepidation, and they were closely observing the movements around.
Inside the palace, a man in a dragon robe fell asleep peacefully.
He was the emperor of the Tang Dynasty.
Outside the palace, the practitioners of the Demon Suppression Division of the Tang Dynasty were arranged in an orderly manner and sat cross-legged to form a large Bagua formation that protected the palace and the men in the palace.
As time passes, the emperor in the palace sleeps more and more peacefully.
But the practitioners outside the palace became more and more nervous.
Suddenly, the bright moonlight suddenly disappeared. Everyone looked up and saw that a dark cloud blocked the moon behind him at some point, covering the bright moonlight like water.
Then, a gust of cold wind blew, like an invisible big hand that touched everyone present's neck.
A practitioner shouted, "Be careful, everyone, they are here."
All practitioners were shocked and even widened their eyes and observed every move around them.
At the same time, a faint mist floated from afar and filled the palace.
"Drop these mists."
A practitioner ordered that everyone obeyed, and they all pinched a handprint and shouted: "The wind is coming, the wind is coming! The wind is coming!!!"
In an instant, a strong wind blew, as if to blow away the weapons in the sky, and everyone's clothes were clamoring in the strong wind.
The fog was also seriously affected, and seemed to be torn to pieces and blown away nine days away.
However, at this moment, the weapons around them boiled and gathered together, forming soldiers with golden swords and iron horses, holding sharp blades and attacking in the strong wind.
The practitioners who protected the palace took action one after another, making lights, and fighting with soldiers formed by the fog.
Just as everyone was fighting hard, they didn't notice that a cloud of fog secretly entered the palace.
The fog entered the palace and turned into a man who was somewhat similar to the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. The man looked at the emperor lying on the bed, showed a hideous smile, and walked towards the emperor.
However, when he was three steps away from the emperor, a ray of light suddenly rose, forming a barrier that blocked the man's way.
The man looked up and found four talismans on the four corners beside the emperor's bed, forcing him to approach the emperor.
The man tried several times, but still couldn't break through this barrier. His face became ferocious and he roared at the emperor.
But the emperor slept very well, and the barrier seemed to have sound insulation effect, so he himself did not hear the man's roar at all.
The man's face became more and more ferocious. Suddenly, the mist that formed his body exploded and turned into strands of strands, invisible yin energy, penetrated through the barrier.
During this process, ninety percent of the yin energy on the man's body was wiped out.
Finally, when the man walked through the barrier and approached the emperor, his body was already almost transparent. Such a body could not even touch the emperor, let alone killing people.
The man laughed bitterly, turned into a stream of light and entered the emperor's eyebrows.
...
On the fourth day of the sixth month of the ninth year of Wude, Emperor Gaozu of Tang Dynasty.
Li Shimin was wearing armor and his face was a little pale, but he knew that he had no way out. If he retreated, he would have only one way out.
Therefore, in order to protect himself, he must change the current situation.
He wants to do something big.
Taking a deep breath, Li Shimin looked around, all of his confidants, counselors and generals. For their sake, they did this big thing that was lost with him.
So Li Shimin did not feel lonely, but was full of courage and pressure.
Whether it is a victory or failure, a glory or an end depends on this time.
At this moment, a soldier ran over, knelt on one knee, and reported: "Report to the King of Qin, the prince and the King of Qi are coming."
Li Shimin nodded and said, "Please continue, no one is allowed to act rashly. Without my orders, I will definitely not allow action. Do you understand?"
"yes."
Li Shimin waved his hand to send the soldiers who came to report, and brought several loving generals forward, and faintly saw the prince and the King of Qi coming on horseback. Li Shimin became more and more excited.
However, at this moment, the prince and the King of Qi suddenly stopped the carriage, and Li Shimin's heart suddenly stumbled. Why didn't the two of them continue to move forward? Could it be that they had discovered something?
Could it be that He Chang made a mistake?
He Chang is the chief of the Xuanwu Gate's Imperial Guard. He was originally the prince's confidant, but he was instigated by himself. Could it be that He Chang was pretending to surrender and wanted to give himself a fatal blow at the most critical moment?
Just as Li Shimin was getting more and more nervous, he saw the prince and the King of Qi suddenly return.
Li Shimin was anxious. No, he could not let them leave now. If they leave, then his efforts today would be completely in vain.
So Li Shimin hurriedly rode a horse and chased after him, "Brother, third brother, why don't you stop quickly and follow me to see your father."
When the King of Qi saw his second brother chasing him out, he became more and more surprised and bent his bow and shot arrow without hesitation!
Whoosh!
An arrow shot towards Li Shimin like a flowing light.
Li Shimin was shocked, but did not hide because he discovered that the arrow of King Qi was not asking for his name, but warned that the arrow flew over from his side and did not hit him.
However, after this incident, Li Shimin immediately understood that the prince and the King of Qi must have discovered something wrong before leaving.
But he couldn't let the two of them leave just like that.
So Li Shimin became ruthless, bent his bow and arrow, aimed at the King of Qi, and shot it out.
The arrow broke through the air, making a sharp whistling sound, and easily shot the King of Qi in the neck, shooting the King of Qi to kill him.
King Qi looked at his brother in disbelief and fell down from his horse.
Then, a bunch of soldiers suddenly broke out near Xuanwu Gate, blocking the prince's soldiers and blocking the prince's escape route. The two sides did not say a word, and a fierce battle broke out at Xuanwu Gate.
Unfortunately, the prince did not know that there were so many soldiers hidden in Xuanwu Gate, and he did not bring many troops at all. He was eventually eradicated by Li Shimin's subordinates one by one.
The prince was also shot and killed by Li Shimin.
When the last rebel was killed, Li Shimin breathed a sigh of relief and looked in the direction of the palace, because he knew that the next emperor must be him.
"We won!" Li Shimin looked at his subordinates and said word by word. No one spoke, but he looked at Li Shimin with a shiny gaze.
But soon, their eyes changed from shining to panic and to fear.
