Chapter 558 Target Tai Chi Palace

"Your Highness, you are back." The old ghost Baizhou walked up to him tremblingly while wiping his tears.

When Li Chengqian saw that he was very old, he felt very moved. Lao Gui was the first person he saw after traveling through time. He was the personal eunuch left by Empress Changsun to Li Chengqian, and he was also very loyal to Li Chengqian.

Later, Li Chengqian went out of Chang'an many times, but because he felt that he was inconvenient to old age, he kept him in the East Palace to guard the house. The old ghost worked hard and did his best to do whatever Li Chengqian made, and he never made any requests to Li Chengqian.

"Old ghost, you have to take good care of yourself. When I ascend the throne, you still have to stand by my side." Li Chengqian is not afraid of speaking at all now. Li Shimin in history is dead in his heart.

"Aihey" The old man's heart warmed when he heard Li Chengqian's words, and nodded repeatedly, and couldn't help but shed tears.

Li Chengqian looked at the eunuch and helped the old ghost down, turned his head and asked Zhang Shizheng, "How many soldiers are there in the urn city?"

Zhang Shizheng was also an old man under Li Chengqian. He was the general of the Eastern Palace. In history, Li Chengqian had his share in rebellion.

"When you go back to the crown prince, there are 10,000 elite soldiers, all of whom were selected from the young and strong people on the Dragon Shouyuan." Zhang Shizheng said.

Li Chengqian nodded after hearing this, feeling relieved.

The people on the Dragon Shouyuan were all the victims and landless farmers he had attracted. While they were wandering on the brink of life and death, Li Chengqian gave them land, farm tools and seeds, which made them reborn. They were absolutely loyal to Li Chengqian.

These people are trained according to the requirements of the Tang Dynasty soldiers on weekdays. Although most of them have never been on the battlefield, it is enough to deal with the current situation in Chang'an City.

After a brief meeting with everyone, Li Chengqian took the lead in walking into the city gate, and the ministers behind him followed him closely.

The remaining brigade did not come in, so they set up military formations in front of Xuande Gate to prevent the troops suddenly from rushing into Xuande Gate by the soldiers and horses that suddenly came out of Xuanwu Gate.

When Li Chengqian walked out of the cave in the city gate, he felt that the wind was heavier than before, and there were already scattered light rain falling in the sky.

"Greetings to the Crown Prince!"

Ten thousand elite soldiers were all armoured with armor and soldiers arranged in a square array in the urn. When they saw Li Chengqian walking into the urn, they hurriedly bowed to him.

Ten thousand strong men shouted in unison, and the mighty and majestic sounds rolled out, suppressing the thunder in the sky.

Li Chengqian looked at these people and felt proud and shouted loudly: "The soldiers are calm!"

Following Li Chengqian's civil and military ministers, they were shocked to see that Li Chengqian had 10,000 elite soldiers hidden in the urn city behind Xuande Gate.

After all the soldiers stood up and stood up, Li Chengqian took two steps forward, closer to the military formation, and shouted loudly: "Sirs, the Lone King is not in Chang'an. King Jin and Changsun Wuji were inconvenient to kill the crown prince. He also took advantage of His Majesty's serious illness to rebel and wanted to kill His Majesty and the Lone King. Are you willing to follow the Lone King to quell the rebellion?"

"I wish to follow His Highness the Crown Prince to the death!" A man in the front row immediately replied loudly.

"good!"

Li Chengqian shouted ok and glanced at the others.

Since the coffin of the crown prince and the crown princess were transported back to Chang'an, the people of Chang'an City have privately reported that the crown prince was killed by King Li Zhi and Chang's Wuji, and the crown princess died because of missing his son.

This legend makes many people in Chang'an City sympathize with Li Chengqian and are not ashamed of what Li Zhi and Changsun Wuji did. However, the people in Longshouyuan and Shengdaofang couldn't help but curse the two when they mentioned this. Some of the blood-like people were waiting for Li Chengqian to return to Chang'an to kill Li Zhi and Changsun Wuji to take revenge.

If Li Chengqian was defeated and died this time, the rangers would also continue to assassinate the two of them.

At this time, all the ten thousand people were very excited when they heard Li Chengqian asking in person.

They all followed the man and said loudly:

"I wish to follow His Highness the Crown Prince to the death."

"I wish to follow His Highness the Crown Prince to the death!"

"I wish to follow His Highness the Crown Prince to the death!"

...

...

The soldiers repeated this sentence over and over again, and the more they shouted, the more they became more and more energetic, and in the end they yelled together.

The civil and military officials standing behind Li Chengqian felt that the earth was trembling and deeply felt that the morale of the army was available.

Even Li Chengqian, who had seen the big scene, was so excited that he heard it. Finally, Li Chengqian raised his arms to stop the generals, then turned his head to Li Shiji and said, "Duke of England, you are the founding hero, the most upright and loyal, I'll ask you to quell the rebellion."

Li Shiji nodded expressionlessly and said, "I only need five thousand elite soldiers."

Li Chengqian said very easily: "Okay!"

Then Li Shiji turned his head and looked at Hao Chujun, Li Yifu, Xue Yuanchao and others. He would definitely not be able to divide his troops into multiple ways to capture Changsun Wuji's accomplices, and he would still arrange for these people to lead troops to capture Changsun Wuji and others.

Li Chengqian ordered Chu Suiliang to hand it over to the minister who led the army to quell the rebellion with the letter written by the crown prince that had been written long ago.

He took the rest of the people directly to continue walking south, leaving the Wengcheng to the East Palace, and then came all the way to the East Palace Chongjiao Hall.

Li Chengqian and a group of civil and military officials entered the Chongjiao Hall and saw that the hall was in chaos. One out of ten items was left, and even the tables and chairs of Huanghuali wood were smashed and broken.

"Has the East Palace been robbed?" Li Chengqian asked in annoyance.

"Today, King Li Zhi of Jin led the Turkic troops into the Eastern Palace, and I am incompetent!" Liu Shi quickly apologized.

When Liu Kui saw this, she would take the eunuch in to sort it out.

Li Chengqian looked at the catastrophic hall, his eyes were on fire, and he took a deep breath and said, "No need to clean up, let's go directly to Tai Chi Palace."

After saying that, seeing that some eunuchs had not responded and had to clean up, they turned around and pointed to the hall angrily and said, "Save this for the Gu Wang!" As he said that, his eyes swept to the ministers and gritted his teeth and said, "Gu Wang wants everyone in Chang'an City to come and see, Li Zhi and Changsun Wuji colluded with Turkic rebels and harmed the Eastern Palace."

The ministers were shocked when they heard this. Li Chengqian planned to publicly execute Li Zhi and Changsun Wuji, and the Turkic nobles who were buried with them were the ones living in the west of the city.

Li Chengqian didn't care what everyone was thinking, and turned around and walked out after saying that.

Li Chengqian walked out of Chongjiao Hall and had an eunuch lifted up to sit on the chariot. Li Chengqian sat on it, arranged the crown prince's full guard of ceremonies, and went out from the main gate of the East Palace, and then rushed to Chengtian Gate, the main gate of Tai Chi Palace.

...

...

Changsun Wuji had just recruited some of his relatives and relatives in the Secretariat who supported him. When he was discussing how to fight against Li Chengqian, he saw Lai Ji, who was staying on duty in the Secretariat, hurried over.

When Changsun Wuji saw Lai Ji, he couldn't help but show joy on his face. He hurriedly stood up and said, "Let the Secretariat come in person, but Your Majesty has the will?"

When everyone in the public housing in the Shangshu Province heard this, they looked at Lai Ji. Although they respected Changsun Wuji very much, when facing Li Chengqian, only Li Shimin was their backbone.

Seeing this, Lai Ji knew that Changsun Wuji had not told everyone about Li Shimin's disappearance, so he shook his head in slightest and said in a deep voice: "Li Chengqian has entered the Eastern Palace from Xuande Gate. Your Majesty asks servants to enter the palace to discuss matters."

"ah!"

"Why is it so fast?"
