Chapter 490: Killing Wang Wendu

Just as the battles on the high platform were getting more and more intense, the soldiers below saw the prince's ceremonial guard coming here.

The yellow Luo umbrella cover and the dragon and phoenix flag fluttered in the wind. The guards of the Eastern Palace wearing bright light armor shone brightly under the rising sun, taking advantage of them like heavenly soldiers and generals.

Li Chengqian came to the school grounds like a god descending to earth, surrounded by guards of the East Palace.

"See Your Highness the Crown Prince!"

"See Your Highness the Crown Prince!"

...

The soldiers at the schoolyard saw Li Chengqian coming to the mountains and shouting to salute.

Li Chengqian came to the high platform, and Liu Kui walked out to the soldiers in the schoolyard and shouted: "The generals were flat."

The battle also stopped on the high platform. Cheng Wuting turned around and said to Li Chengqian: "Report to the Crown Prince, Wang Wen has been on vacation to entrust His Majesty with his majesty's will to do irregular things. I am about to take them down."

Li Chengqian nodded expressionlessly.

Wang Wendu didn't care, so he stepped forward and said with a sacred look on his face, "Your Highness the Crown Prince came with His Majesty's will. Since Your Highness the Crown Prince also came, I will read it here."

Li Chengqian looked at Wang Wendu, sneered on his face, and said directly: "You are so bold, Wang Wendu, you are actually faked to pass the imperial edict in front of the lonely king and take it down!"

Wang Wendu's eyes widened as he heard this. He had a real imperial edict. Why didn't Li Chengqian even read it and said it was fake.

"Your Highness, I have received the real imperial edict..."

Before Wang Wendu finished speaking, he saw Cheng Wuting pounce on him with the East Palace guards again. He was so scared that he hurriedly retreated and retreated to the personal guards he brought.

Wang Wendu took out the imperial edict while retreating, and shouted at Li Chengqian: "Your Highness, you see, this is an imperial edict."

Seeing that Wang Wendu had arrived at this time, Li Chengqian ordered in his heart: "Wang Wen was on vacation to pass the imperial edict, and he would not be killed."

Xue Rengui next to him had already prepared the bow and arrow, and he heard this and shot the arrow directly, and shot Wang Wendu's throat with just one arrow.

Wang Wendu couldn't believe it until he died. Li Chengqian dared to order the general holding the Holy Finger in his hand.

Li Chengqian looked at Wang Wendu being shot and killed without expression. Seeing that the person who came with Wang Wendu either knelt down and asked to surrender, or was killed by Cheng Wuting.

It was not until the battle on the platform that the body was cleaned up that Li Chengqian slowly walked up to the platform with the help of Liu Kui.

Li Chengqian turned around and looked at the soldiers below with a blank expression. All the soldiers lowered their heads when they saw Li Chengqian's eyes.

Finally, Li Chengqian glanced at Liang Jianfang. When Liang Jianfang saw him, he quickly knelt down on his knees and said, "I am guilty."

"What crime?"

Liang Jianfang was even more scared when he heard this. He knew that Li Chengqian was forcing him to take the team.

At this time, even fools knew that there was no room for ease between Li Chengqian and Li Shimin.

Today he let Wang Wendu in and helped him summon soldiers, which had offended Li Chengqian. Logically speaking, he should continue to take the team to Li Shimin.

But looking at Li Chengqian's indifferent expression, then looking at the murderous Xue Rengui and Cheng Wuting...

"I was foolish and fooled by Wang Wendu. I thought he was given the true imperial edict, but I thought it was fake. I asked His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to punish him."

Liang Jianfang is not stupid and doesn't want to die now.

Li Chengqian narrowed his eyes and looked at Liang Jianfang, until he saw sweat on his forehead, and then he slowly said, "Liang Jianfang, since you are aware of the crime and have caused a great disaster, the Lone King will spare you for the time being, but you can no longer be the commander of the first army, just hand over the army to Xue Rengui to lead."

"I obey the order!"

Liang Jianfang felt relieved. These 50,000 troops were recruited by Li Chengqian on Hebei Road and were absolutely loyal to Li Chengqian. Even if he continued to be the head commander, he would not be able to use these soldiers to rebel Li Chengqian.

It would be better to hand over the military power to reassure Li Chengqian and his head would be more stable.

After dealing with Liang Jianfang, Li Chengqian looked at the soldiers below again and said lightly: "From today, all the soldiers in the camp will be commander Xue Rengui. Can you hear clearly?"

Standing behind Li Chengqian, the East Palace guards thrust their throats and repeated loudly several times. The sound came from afar, and the sound was shaking and echoed constantly in the valley.

The soldiers below heard the sound of heaven, and the generals bowed and bowed and said, "I will obey the order!"

Li Chengqian signaled Xue Rengui to stay and reorganize the army, so he slowly returned to the central army's tent with the ceremonial guard.

Li Chengqian returned to the Central Army's tent and returned to the idle people, leaving only Cheng Wuting Shangguan Yi and Liu Kui. Cheng Wuting took out Wang Wendu's imperial edict to Li Chengqian.

When Li Chengqian saw that he was ordering him to return to Chang'an, Li Chengqian released the imperial edict casually and told Cheng Wuting and Shangguan Yi to take a look.

Cheng Wuting hurriedly picked up the imperial edict and looked at it, saying in dismay: "It is not the edict of the deposed prince."

"Hmm-?" Li Chengqian looked at Cheng Wuting in confusion.

Cheng Wuting knew that he had made a mistake and hurriedly saluted Li Chengqian with a wry smile.

Li Chengqian refused to give in and said, "What crime does the Lone King have to be abolished?"

Cheng Wuting said hurriedly: "I am just worried that Your Majesty will be deceived by the demons and will be in trouble, so I tried my best to prevent Wang Wendu from proclaiming the imperial edict in the school."

Li Chengqian nodded and said, "Wang Wendu does have evil intentions, but with his talent, such an idea should have been given to him by someone else."

Shangguan Yi looked at the imperial edict and said solemnly: "Now that the Crown Prince killed Wang Wendu, is it a big charge?"

Li Chengqian also looked calm and nodded, "Yes, I gave Changsun Wuji an excuse." He said this and said, "But the general will not accept the orders of the outside king, let alone the Lone King? Now as long as you take down Fuyu City as soon as possible and then meet in the city of Pyongyang, the great disaster will be gone."

"Your Highness the Prince, are we going to Fuyu City today?" Cheng Wuting remembered that Li Chengqian planned to go outside Fuyu City to explore the terrain in person yesterday.

Li Chengqian shook his head and said, "There is no time now."

Cheng Wuting was stunned when he heard this and asked silly: "How can you conquer Fuyu City?"

Li Chengqian thought for a while and said, "Last night, the Lone King thought about it and decided to directly transfer the Khitan. The young and strong man from the Xi tribe came to dig the earth walls of Fuyu City directly."

Li Chengqian attacked all the way, and all the prisoners were moved to the hinterland of the Tang Dynasty as coolies.

Only the Khitan and Xi tribe sent envoys to pay tribute when Li Chengqian arrived in Youzhou, helping the Tang Dynasty to restrain the Marushi tribe and build Yandu.

Therefore, it was preserved on the grasslands in the north of Yandu. Now, except for Fuyu City, there are only ordinary people in the Khitan and Xi tribes hundreds of miles away.

Shangguan Yi thought about it after hearing this and said, "Your Highness, the Crown Prince, although the Khitan and the Xi tribe are of no use in the northwest, if there is a turbulence in the northwest, it can resist it for a while."

Li Chengqian nodded and said, "In the past, the Lone King thought so, but now that Goguryeo is about to be destroyed, the court is unstable, so I can only transfer the two young masters to come first."

Shangguan Yi had nothing to say after hearing this. Originally, Li Chengqian planned to fight Goguryeo again in the summer, and the Yuan Gaisu Wen in Fuyu City was exhausted.

But now because the court is unstable, it is impossible to fight ahead of schedule without taking risks.

After deciding a plan, Shangguan Yi immediately went out to prepare documents and the messenger sent to the grassland.

Li Chengqian summoned the generals in the camp to discuss detailed siege plans.
