May, the seventh year of Wude.

Qu Tutong, Minister of Works, reported to Li Yuan: "Your Majesty, the Renzhi Palace has been built and can be settled in at any time."

Renzhi Palace is located on Mount Yuhua in Yijun County, Fangzhou. It is located in the north of Chang'an. It is a military fortress to resist the Turkic invasion of Guanzhong and is also a Li Palace for summer vacation and enjoying the scenery.

After Li Yuan asked about the situation in Renzhi Palace, he asked Qu Tutong to leave.

Then, Li Yuan summoned Qian Jiulong and said to him: "The Renzhi Palace has been completed. It will take a while before I go to the Renzhi Palace to patrol the defense. You first use Gu's decree to dispatch troops from Fangzhou to the Renzhi Palace to deploy defense.

"Let's go tomorrow, and when the deployment is completed, we will rush back to Chang'an as soon as possible."

Qian Jiulong received the edict and said solemnly: "I obey the edict."

Unexpectedly, just after Qian Jiulong left, Li Yuan received a military newspaper sent back from the northern border: Yuan Junzhang and Turkic cavalry went in and out of Yuanzhou, Shuozhou, Xinzhou, Bingzhou and other places, plundered and harassed, causing the border soldiers and civilians to suffer a lot.

After Li Yuan thought deeply, he issued an order to order Cheng Zhijie and Yuchi Jingde of the Qin Palace to go to Bingzhou immediately to help the guards of the border states to expel the Turkic soldiers.

The decree was passed to the Qin Palace, and Cheng Zhijie and Yuchi Jingde immediately started preparing.

When Li Shimin saw them off, he said to them: "This time, Your Majesty sent you to Bingzhou to compensate you for your unjust imprisonment. You must seize the opportunity to expel the Turkic soldiers from the territory of the Tang Dynasty and make military achievements again.

"If necessary, take the token I gave you and dispatch nearby troops to help you."

The two of them were excitedly thanking each other: "Thank you, the king. I will definitely complete the task when I wait, so I will not embarrass you."

"Okay, go." Li Shimin waved his hand at them.

The horses neighed, and the soldiers gradually moved away, leaving only the dust flying all over the sky.

......

Eastern Palace.

Li Jiancheng said to everyone with a serious expression: "When the Turks attacked, Your Majesty conscripted Cheng Zhijie and Yuchi Jingde from the Qin Palace, which shows that Your Majesty still valued the King of Qin as always.

"The king of Qin will one day meet me, so from now on, we must be fully prepared."

Everyone agreed.

Li Yi expressed his anger and said loudly: "Your Highness should have been like this long ago, but it's not too late to be prepared now. What your Highness wants to do, you can give me your orders and I will definitely support you."

"Okay, I'll feel relieved with the words of King Yan." Li Jiancheng thought for a while and continued: "There are currently more than 2,000 soldiers stationed on the left and right Changlin Gate of the East Palace, but this is far from enough.

"The Fang District near the East Palace should also strengthen its defense to prevent the King of Qin from attacking."

He looked at Li Yi: "I heard that the cavalry left by King Yan in Youzhou are all brave men with war. I want to select 300 cavalry from them and stationed in Fang District near the East Palace. What do you think about the King Yan?"

"This plan is very good." Li Yi agreed very much and immediately said: "How many people do you want in your highness? Even if you go to transfer, the soldiers who stay in Youzhou are my old subordinates. They are like me, and they are loyal to Your Highness to the death."

Hearing this, Li Jiancheng was very satisfied. His eyes glanced around the officials and finally fell on Ke Dazhi's face.

"Keizhi obeys orders."

"Subordinate is here."

"You followed the Yan King's men to Youzhou immediately, and transferred 300 cavalry into Beijing, and stationed in Fang District near the Donggong."

"Yes, my subordinates obey the order."

......

After Kedazhi and Li Yi's men left Chang'an, Li Shimin received the news.

Changsun Wuji took the opportunity to make a statement: "King, this is a good opportunity. It is against the law that the prince will send local troops to Beijing privately. If His Majesty knows, he will be furious.

"We must report him."

Li Shimin showed contempt: "He thought he was so secretive. I must let him see, the people from the Qin Prince's Mansion could not afford to offend him."

Then, Li Shimin ordered: "On the road from Youzhou to Chang'an, send more people to stare, and there are also city gates everywhere, and people to stare.

"As long as they return to Beijing, they will report it immediately."

"Yes, the king." Changsun Wuji took the order and left.

......

Ten days later, Changsun Wuji hurriedly reported to Li Shimin: "King, Kedazhi led 300 Youzhou cavalry to enter the Jingji area, and this afternoon, you can reach Chang'an."

"That's great." Li Shimin couldn't help but stroking his hands and ordered: "You write a secret letter immediately and arrange for someone to send it to the palace.

"Remember, the letter should not mention the East Palace."

Changsun Wuji understood it and went to do it immediately.

Not long after, a secret letter appeared on Li Yuan's imperial case.

Qian Jiulong reported: "Your Majesty, this is the secret letter I just received. I have checked it. There is no problem. Please check it out."

Li Yuan opened the secret letter with confusion. After reading it, he slapped the imperial desk with a heavy palm: "It's outrageous!"

The cup on the imperial desk was shaken, and after rolling for a few rounds, it rolled off the imperial desk and fell to pieces.

The palace people in the palace were so scared that they knelt on the ground, not daring to show off.

"In the peaceful and prosperous era, there are people who have privately transferred troops to Beijing?" Li Yuan was very angry and ordered: "Qian Jiulong, you should immediately take people to intercept them. I want to see who is so brave."

However, when Qian Jiulong escorted Kedazhi into the Tai Chi Hall, Li Yuan was surprised.

What followed was anger: "Call the prince to me."

Li Jiancheng walked into the Tai Chi Hall and didn't know why his father called him, but when he saw Ke Dazhi kneeling on the ground, his face suddenly turned pale.

It was over, my father discovered it.

"Bang!"

Li Yuan picked up the inkstone and threw it at Li Jiancheng: "Crown Prince, you are so brave. How dare you dispatch local troops to Beijing privately? What do you want to do? Do you rebel?"

Li Jiancheng did not hide, but the inkstone did not hit him, but just landed at his feet.

He immediately knelt down: "Father calmed down, he didn't want to rebel, he just... just..."

"Just what?" Li Yuan shouted violently.

Li Jiancheng was quick to learn and explained: "Recently, the Turks plundered the border, and they were just worried that the Turks would invade Guanzhong and invade the capital, so they secretly dispatched Youzhou troops to guard the capital.

"I have never rebelled, and I have no intention of this."

Li Yuan did not believe him: "If this is the case, you can tell me directly, why did you secretly transfer the army?

"As the crown prince, he knows that the law is illegal and has done such a rebellious thing. Tell me, how should I deal with you?"

When he heard that he wanted to deal with the prince, Ke Dazhi hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, this matter was done by the minister alone, and the prince's highness was not aware of it.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince said just now, because he was considering the relationship between the master and the servant, and helping the ministers to excuse him. Please do not blame the Crown Prince.

"Everything is my fault. I deserve to die. Please give up your crime."

Li Yuan was furious: "Are you a fool to be a fool? Without the order of the prince, can you dispatch the troops in Youzhou?"

Kudazhi's face suddenly turned like earth and was speechless.

Li Jiancheng had no choice but to apologize: "Father, my son is not careful and has done something wrong. My son is willing to receive the punishment. Please don't be angry.

"If you get angry, you will be punished for your death."

Li Yuan was furious.

But he couldn't help but scold Li Jiancheng severely.

Finally, Li Yuan issued an order: "The prince's right Yuhou, please do not forgive the order of the prince, and send local troops to the capital without permission.

"Remembering his past military merits, forgive his death sentence, and exiled to Fuzhou to show punishment..."
