Little Zhongnan Mountain.

This path travels between the bad waters of the dense forests. The road is narrow and only one person can pass through.

Hou Junji was chewing dry food in his mouth, holding a long knife in his hand, slashing left and right, splitting the thorny bushes in front of him.

The path they were taking at this moment was not considered a road at all, but wild animals were rampant, crushing thorns and weeds and forming animal paths.

And it's hot now, mosquitoes are everywhere, and hundreds of ants are buzzing around.

But Hou Junji did not take it seriously.

How can this mere animal path be compared to the Poluo Zhen Valley that he broke into for Putu Valley, and how can he compare to the two thousand miles of desert he walked when he conquered Gaochang?

These thorn obstacles, snakes, insects, rats and ants, are not worth mentioning in front of this battle-hardened general.

Hou Junji was in a hot mood at this moment. The closer he approached Shangwang Pavilion, the more excited he felt.

I was eager to tell Li Shimin that he was wrong and that he should not have been imprisoned. He fought hard to conquer Li Tang's country, wasn't it just that he was greedy for some money, took the treasure house of King Gaochang for himself, and indulged his soldiers to rob Gaochang, what's the big deal?

Thinking of his great military achievements and his life and death, he was humiliated and imprisoned and became a prisoner.

The more I think about this, the more I feel that Hou Junji feels not worth it for me.

Thinking of the Shangwang Pavilion, which was so close, Hou Junji's steps became much lighter and his sword that cut the thorns in his hand became more powerful.

Based on the information provided by Li Chengqian, they indeed bypassed the frontal defense of Bashui Villa and broke into Shangwang Pavilion, the hinterland of the villa.

The Bashui Villa is built around the mountains and rivers. There are no roads around it, so only the direction of Ba Bridge can be feasible.

Li Yuanai and Changsun Wuji's arrival told the possibility of attack on the villa.

Li Shimin decisively sent soldiers to the front yard of the villa to set up defenses, so that the Shangwang Pavilion in the rear was weak.

Hou Junji's combat vision was so vicious. He just looked at the layout secretly and could already determine the weakness of the Shangwang Pavilion's insufficient military strength.

As long as you take down Shangwang Pavilion, you will be more than half successful in action tonight.

Hou Junji knew the main and secondary. The actions in Chang'an Imperial City had nothing to do with the overall situation. Being able to capture the core of the Li Tang Dynasty, Emperor Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty, would be considered victory.

With Li Shimin as hostages, King Li Tai of Wei and King Li Zhi of Jin were also in Bashui Villa, and then they were controlled by them, which was equivalent to controlling all candidates who could inherit the throne, and they would be invincible by then.

This is also the main reason why he left Chang'an and led a team to attack Shangwang Pavilion.

Hou Junji's pupils contracted, and he looked at the Shangwang Pavilion not far away, raised his sword and said softly: "The enemy is in Shangwang Pavilion. For the sake of glory and wealth, high officials and generous salaries, follow me..."

He took the lead and led a group of soldiers who were like wolves and tigers to rush towards Shangwang Pavilion frantically.

Li Shimin in the Shangwang Pavilion was still moved by Li Yuanai's words, "Terrorism attempted is two different concepts of failure and failure to rebellion."

Li Shimin is an extremely rational emperor. He may still be secretly sad in his emotions. He has already accepted this fact in his heart and began to consider the future. Choosing a new crown prince to stabilize the dynasty and how to save Li Chengqian's life are the most important keys in his heart.

Choosing the crown prince is based on his subjective wishes, which is simple. The most rare thing is to save Li Chengqian's life.

If a prince rebelled, he should be punished according to the law.

This is especially true for the crown prince.

No matter how sad and sad Li Shimin was, he would not raise his butcher knife to his son.

Li Yuanai's seemingly risky move minimized the harm. He did not make the situation worse and did not need to explain it to the people of the world.

In this way, Li Shimin had reason to save his son's life on the pretext.

At this moment, the sound of a rapid golden gong sounded outside the Shangwang Pavilion.

Li Shimin was stunned and shouted: "Enemy attack?"

There are several types of sounds of golden gongs. This harsh and urgent warning of golden gong means the enemy attack.

He walked into the inner hall without any panic. When he came out, he had a gorgeous sword in his hand and said, "Hou Junji is here! Get ready to fight!"

There are no extra words, no extra questions.

This is the quickest reaction of a person who has been through the battlefield.

People like Li Yuanai who have never passed through the battlefield are still thinking about who the enemy is? How did they come?

Li Shimin is ready for battle.

Although more than ten years of emperor's career have left him alone in his archery and horse martial arts, this kind of crisis reaction that has been tempered by countless life-and-death battles is never possible for normal people.

Not only Li Shimin, but Changsun Wuji, who was fat like Maitreya Buddha, was also quick-responsive. He glanced around the room and saw the pedestal stents placed in potted plants. He kicked the pedestal stents and picked up two broken wooden sticks in his hand.

Li Yuanai looked at their reaction and felt a little ashamed.

Li Shimin said: "Can the auxiliary machine still fight?"

The fat Changsun Wuji covered a stick flower with both hands and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I am in my prime!"

Changsun Wuji has always been a civil servant, but he was born into a military aristocrat in Guanlong and was also a well-known figure when he went to the battlefield.

Li Shimin nodded and smiled, "Okay, the second-level staircase of Shangwang Pavilion is steep, and there is another circumferential staircase. You can guard there to guard against bows and arrows. You and I will see who has the ability to do it."

Not only was he fearless, he was full of courage and confidence. His invincible spirit was as handsome as the King of Qin who was once unparalleled.

You should know that Li Shimin had no ambition at the beginning, his behavior was decisive and upright, just like an invincible sharp blade, expanding territory for the Tang Dynasty. He offended many people for this and also caused great obstacles to his later battle for the crown prince.

Later, because of the increasing contributions and increasing power, the greater the ambitions, and after getting involved in politics, I began to learn to restrain myself.

At this moment, Changsun Wuji seemed to see the unpredictable King Qin King Li Shimin.

It's just that big belly bag is a bit disgusting.

Li Shimin took a look and Li Yuanai was still in a daze. "Sixteen, you are not good at martial arts, just follow your elder brother, and your elder brother protects you. Don't be afraid!"

"This, brother, wait..." Li Yuanai was shocked by the heroic spirit of the two people in front of him, and then he realized and hurriedly said, "Actually, there is no need to take risks. This pavilion is too high and is all made of wood, most afraid of fire. My brother is timid and afraid of death. When designing, he hid a rope ladder under the bed on each floor. At the viewing platform outside the house, a long staircase was specially designed to hang a long staircase, which can go straight to the foot of the mountain. We take the rope ladder without having to fight them on the front."

Li Shimin, who was majestic and preparing to start a massacre, seemed a little embarrassed and said angrily: "Why didn't you say it earlier?"

Li Yuanai went to the bottom of the bed to take out a heavy rope ladder and said, "You didn't ask!"

"Where!" Changsun Wuji also threw the stick in his hand to the ground with some embarrassment, and asked, "Will we take the rope ladder?"
