Chang'an City, East Palace.

Li Chengqian changed, his changes were very obvious, and he became more and more like a crown prince.

The day before yesterday, he received a letter from Empress Changsun. If Li Chengqian had been in the past, he would have done it according to Empress Changsun's opinions without hesitation. However, now he can think about this matter carefully before making a decision.

Empress Changsun asked Li You to try to protect Changsun Shunde while stopping the rebellion of Changsun Shunde. This was almost an unfinished task.

Li Chengqian knew the status of Changsun Shunde in his mother's heart. Although his relationship with Changsun Shunde was not so close, there was nothing wrong with it. He was a filial son and wanted to fulfill his mother's wishes. However, he knew how big a problem Li You would face once he received this letter.

He knew Li You and knew that he would do his best to fulfill Empress Changsun's wish. In this case, Li You would likely make irrational decisions and make things that violate the law, which may even cause Li You to have life worries.

Li Chengqian was unsure of his mind and wanted to discuss it with someone, but this matter was top secret and could not be discussed with anyone, especially Li Shimin. Empress Changsun trusted Li Chengqian because Li You and Li Chengqian had a close relationship, so Li Chengqian must not reveal this secret.

Li Chengqian had two choices. One was to send this letter to Li You according to Empress Changsun’s instructions. The other option was to persuade Empress Changsun not to send this letter to Li You. Once this matter was discovered by others, Empress Changsun would fall into a great dilemma, and even Li Shimin would be in great difficulty.

Li Chengqian thought about it for a long time. The thing he wanted to do the most was to persuade Empress Changsun. He once walked to the door of Lizheng Hall, but he really didn't have the courage to refuse Empress Changsun's request, so he returned to the East Palace.

Finally, he made up his mind and decided to hand over the matter to Li You to handle. He also wrote a letter himself, saying that Li You would decide whether to meet the requirements of Empress Changsun according to the real environment he was in. If it was really impossible, there was no need to force it. If Empress Changsun blamed Li You for this in the future, he would bear the responsibility with Li You.

These two letters were really important. Li Chengqian couldn't believe even Zhang Xuansu, Li Dezhi and others around him. He thought about it again and again, and called Yin Guanghao and asked him to go to Luoyang in person and handed the two letters to Li You. Even so, he still sealed the two letters with a hot paint on the letters and wrote the words "Li You's Kindness" on them.

After Yin Guanghao left, Li Chengqian went to Lizheng Hall. He told Empress Changsun what he did. Empress Changsun did not blame Li Chengqian, but was relieved that he could think about problems independently and make appropriate decisions.

She said to Li Chengqian: "Chengqian, you did it right, I was a little impulsive about this matter. However, I believe that Li You will come up with a proper solution. You can rest assured that even if he can't fulfill my wish, I will not blame him."

Empress Changsun’s attitude towards this matter made Li Chengqian feel very relieved. Through this matter, Li Chengqian took another step forward on the road to growth.

Luoyang City.

Lu Xiaoqi went out of the city to see Xue Rengui and others, and reported to Li Youping's news, and everyone was very happy.

Next, Lu Xiaoqi told Zhang Baogui and others what Li You told him; first, he asked Hou Cheng to take a team of the special forces to Xiangzhou to intercept Gao Mingjun, the commander of the Zhechong Prefecture of Xiangzhou. He was the son-in-law of Changsun Shunde and prevented him from assisting Changsun Shunde's rebels.

In order to prevent insufficient troops, Miao Xiting, Ma Ming and others were asked to lead the troops from Sishui County to assist Hou Cheng in the action.

Secondly, let Huang Laoba assist Xue Rengui's special forces in secretly sneak into Luoyang. He wanted to implement a modern combat method - beheading operation in Luoyang City, and defeat Changsun Shunde and other rebel leaders in one fell swoop, so as to quickly quell the rebellion. Magpie followed the special forces to operate.

Third, let Zhang Baogui return to Chang'an in person and present Li You's combat plan to Li Shimin.

Everyone immediately acted according to Li You's deployment.

The road leading to Chang'an in Luoyang City has been blocked by the rebels, so Zhang Baogui had to detour Jinzhou to Chang'an. After three days of running wildly, he finally arrived in Chang'an.

When Zhang Liang saw Zhang Baogui, he immediately took him to the palace city to ask for Li Shimin.

Chang'an City. Liangyi Hall, study room.

After reading Li You's combat plan, Li Shimin immediately summoned Fang Xuanling, and Li Jing talked about Li You's combat plan.

Fang Xuanling said in surprise: "Your Majesty, this matter is too risky. His Highness, the King of Qi, actually carried out the assassination mission in Luoyang City himself, and I think it is inappropriate."

Xue Rengui is Li Jing's apprentice, and the master and apprentice have discussed in-depth modern combat methods of the special forces. He knows more about the special forces, and he introduced Li Shimin in detail the situation of the special forces and his previous record in the Western Regions.

He said: "Your Majesty, don't underestimate that this special forces team has only a few hundred people. It can be worth tens of thousands of troops when used at critical moments."

Li Shimin and others had heard of the achievements of Xue Rengui and others before, but in their ideas, war requires large corps to operate, and they still lack sufficient understanding of the role of a small force.

After listening to Li Jing's introduction, Li Shimin stood in front of Luoyang's map and pondered for a long time. He said, "I have decided to approve Li You's combat plan. At the same time, we will continue to mobilize the army to maintain pressure on the direction of Luoyang and cooperate with Li You's actions."

Then, he called Zhang Baogui who was waiting outside and said to him: "You should return to Luoyang immediately, so that Li You don't have to ask for instructions, and grant him the right to deal with it on the spot."

Luoyang City.

With the help of Huang Laoba and others, the main force of the special forces had secretly sneaked into Luoyang City. Now, what Li You had to do was to grasp the exact time when Changsun Shunde convened the meeting, raided the Governor's Office, and seized the head of the rebel group in one fell swoop.

Li You and others are outsiders and are not familiar with Luoyang, and their intelligence sources are limited. Although Huang Laoba and others are locals, the level of Luoyang government they contacted is not high, and it is difficult to grasp such a major secret.

Li You thought about it and suddenly remembered someone, and his eyes lit up.

Xunfang Pavilion.

Ma Wengui and others besieged Nancheng Inn and made great noises. Fang Xiaoyu also heard some rumors. When she heard that Li You had left Luoyang safely, she felt very glad.

That afternoon, Fang Xiaoyu's personal maid Yicui brought someone, and he said he was sending a message for someone. Fang Xiaoyu was a little curious and asked Yicui to bring that person in.
