The guard was wearing a thousand-magic sword on his waist and iron armor, and stood in front of him with an expressionless face.???

"Your Majesty has a order that no one shall enter the Lizheng Hall."

"Go out of the way, Gu wants to go in." Li Jiancheng's face was as cold as frost, and he shouted coldly. "Go is the prince, please go out of the way."

But the guards were still guarding the door and refused to give in. "Your Majesty specifically told me that even the Crown Prince should not enter."

Such a rigid guard made Li Jiancheng angry. He had just come from the Eastern Palace. Originally, the emperor promised to give him enough troops to attack the Eastern Palace, but as soon as the troops were pulled into his hands, they were transferred away. There were only 20,000 people in his hand. How could he defeat an Eastern Palace with tens of thousands of people defending?

Although Li Jiancheng insisted on attacking hard, he attacked many times in a row, but he still returned in vain.

Yangzhou surrendered, Hongzhou was defeated, Jiangxia was abandoned, and Xiangyang surrendered again.

Now Li has been fighting all the way, only 200 miles away from Hanjing. The 20,000 troops who rushed to reinforce Xiangyang were gone before they arrived in Xiangyang. The reinforcements turned against each other and surrendered Li.

Nowadays, people are in panic in Hanjing City, and all kinds of rumors are flying everywhere.

Most people already know that the emperor did not die in the Western Regions. The emperor has returned and has arrived in Chang'an and has returned with thousands of troops.

The news that the court promoted the outside world that Li Li Ji, Li Jing, Yuchi Gong, Qin Qiong and other generals who had joined the new dynasty and were named king by the emperor were actually fake.

Li has already reached Xiangyang, Yuchi Gong and Cheng Yaojin are also fighting Wulao Pass, and Li Ji is fighting Taiyuan.

Even the only Li Jing they met was taken back to Hanjing for acquaintance with the rebels.

In fact, there are many people in the Hanjing city who knew the truth. Those nobles, nobles, officials and scholars who originally supported the restoration of the Supreme Emperor, but now they are beginning to waver and conspire.

Li Jiancheng believes that the more this time, the more we need to take down the Eastern Palace to stabilize the morale of the army.

If you can't attack strongly, then you can only take advantage of wisdom.

The Changsun family, Chengqian, and Li Shimin's concubines and children were all pulled to the front of the East Palace gate, and they would be chopped down if they did not surrender.

If they cut in public, they will always surrender.

The Qianniu Guards in the palace, including the original three guards and five palaces of Qinxunyi, were the children of Xunyi officials. However, after the emperor restored this time, although a large number of Xunyi officials were also granted the children of Xunyi officials as Qinxunyi Guards, they did not trust them. They called rewards and guards, and gave them a way to advance. They were actually hostages of the emperor.

The emperor now really valued Qianniu Guards. The guards in Qianniu Guards were all personally selected by the emperor.

These guys are afraid that the emperor will not even listen to his dignified prince's words.

Jiancheng gritted his teeth and narrowed his eyes.

"What's your name? Whose family?"

"Your Highness, Wang Junya, and a son of the Wang family in Taiyuan."

"Oh, Taiyuan Wang Family, no wonder. There are several rooms in Taiyuan Wang Family, which room do you belong to?"

"Taiyuan Wang's Qi County Branch."

"Well, Wang Gui's family, who are you?" Jiancheng asked. Wang Gui was his confidant in the East Palace back then, but later he joined Li Shimin's disciple. Now he is still in the East Palace and refuses to come out.

"Yes, your highness, that's my uncle."

Li Jiancheng nodded, "You open the door for Gu, and turn around and transfer you to the East Palace to add an official."

The guards remained indifferent.

Li Jiancheng finally couldn't bear it anymore. He drew his sword and directly pushed the sword tip to the guard's throat.

"Open the door!"

The guard pressed his hand on the hilt of Qianniu Kniu Kniu Kniu Kniu Kniu Kniu Kniu Kniu Kniu Kniu Kniu Kniu Kniu Kniu Kniu Kniu Kniu Kniu Kniu Kniu Kniu Kniu Kniu Kniu Kniu Kniu Kniu Kniu Kniu Kniu Kniu Kniu Kniu Kniu Kniu Kniu Kniu K

Finally, the guard finally made it aside and asked his subordinates to open the door.

Li Zheng Hall.

It has been more than three months, but the queen's injury has not yet been cured. Especially the severe cough is that taking medicine every day is useless. However, what worries the queen the most is that she has never seen the prince, and the prince is locked up in this palace, but the mother and son cannot meet at first.

Jiancheng suddenly broke in.

He held the sword in his hand, and the palace people screamed and fled in all directions.

Changsun walked up to him.

"what you up to?"

Jiancheng looked at Changsun with a sinister face and said, "Murder."

······

Wude Hall.

Li Yuan was discussing with Chai Shao.

"Xiangyang is lost, Li is only two hundred miles away from us. What should I do now?"

Chai Shao looked at the map and didn't know how to answer.

Xiangyang has better defense performance than Hanjing. But it is really inappropriate to lose Xiangyang City so easily.

Feng Deyi Dao, "Your Majesty, it's better to go west for the moment."

"Western hunt?"

The west hunt sounds nice, it seems that the emperor is hunting west, but in fact he is running west.

"Along the Han River, enter Hanzhong, and then enter Shu. Shu is rich and has natural dangers. You can hunt Chengdu west and then summon the king's troops to serve, and there is still a chance."

Li Yuan didn't speak.

There was a big chance, he thought to himself. Once he fled west, then Yuanji and Li Xiaogong and Luo Yi and their 100,000 troops will be attacked from both sides and will be defeated by the enemy.

If this main force is defeated, Luoyang and Taiyuan will not be able to defend themselves.

In the Central Plains, there is no more power from the Wude Dynasty.

Go to Shu via Hanzhong.

He also said that Li Ke is in Xiangyang. Even if they can bypass Xiangyang and go to Hanzhong, it is very easy for Li to chase them.

"If I don't run away, I will fight them to the end!" Li Yuan gritted his teeth. At this point, he seemed to be able to rely on the army of King Yuanji of Qi to stop Li Shimin.

But everyone knows that this is almost impossible.

"Your Majesty, letter from Tongguan!"

The guards came to report.

“Support it!”

There was also a small box delivered with the letter.

Li Yuan read the letter first, and after reading it, his face turned pale. He opened the box himself, and it turned out that it was Yuan Ji's level inside.

"My son!"

Li Yuan was almost unsteady in standing.

Chai Shao, Feng Lun and others were also shocked when they saw Yuan Ji's level in the box.

I just sent my last hope for Yu Yuanji, but now the Yuanji level is already in this box.

"Your Majesty, where is the 100,000 army?"

"The entire army was disintegrated, and the loss was great. Li Shimin has captured Guozhou."

After conquering Guozhou, Li Shimin's next step was to go straight to Hanjing or to fight against Luoyang in the east. But no matter what, the Wude court in Hanjing was finished.

There was a dead silence in the hall.

·······

Li Zheng Hall.

Li Jiancheng's subordinates drove Empress Changsun, other concubines, princes and princesses out.

After several months, Empress Changsun finally met Prince Chengqian. After so long, Prince's face became paler, but her eyes revealed a more mature light.

The mother and son hugged each other and cried.

Jiancheng has pulled a child directly out of the crowd.

However, it was Li Shimin's second son, Li Kuan, King of Chu. This was Li Shimin's concubine son. Before Li Shimin succeeded to the throne, he was adopted by Li Shimin's younger brother, Li Zhiyun, King of Chu Ai.

Li Jiancheng dragged the young Li Kuan out of the crowd, and then stabbed him into the chest with a knife in front of Empress Changsun and Prince Chengqian.
