"What I didn't expect was that the emperor actually gave Zhao Chen the Xuanjia Army."
"Luo Tong, why don't you help me pass the message to Zhao Chen?" Cui Yan and Luo Tong said a lot, but the last sentence was to ask Luo Tong to pass the message to Zhao Chen for him.
"Oh? What do you want to say to the sir?" Luo Tong didn't care.
Cui Yan is dead today, and no matter what he says, it doesn't matter.
Just treat it as a joke.
"I was there when the emperor followed the Emperor to conquer the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, I have seen His Majesty when he was young."
"Luo Tong, I tell you that Zhao Chen looks almost the same as the emperor back then except for his temperament."
"You know, do you mean, what does I mean? Haha!" Cui Yan laughed.
Luo Tong's expression changed instantly, and he looked at Cui Yan with cold eyes.
"Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, and others should have seen something. If you don't believe it, you can ask them."
"It's just a pity that I haven't had time to tell Li Chengqian about this, otherwise, this may be more interesting."
"Haha, I don't know who is the real crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, but Li Chengqian has worked hard for more than ten years, and it is probably in vain in the end, and it is better to be with me..."
"Kill them!" Luo Tong shouted loudly, unable to let Cui Yan continue to speak.
Everyone here today must be killed completely.
Otherwise, what Cui Yan said just now, if it was spread...
The consequences will be unimaginable!
The Xuanjia Army was dispatched, even if it was an army of thousands of people, it was not an opponent.
A mere hundred people were killed in just a few dozen breaths.
A strong smell of blood permeated the official road and it was dissipated for a long time.
...
The next morning, news of a large number of corpses found on the official road was sent back to Chang'an City.
In the Tai Chi Hall, the emperor also wanted to instruct the ministers on how to prevent locust plagues.
Then he received news that 82 people from the Cui family, led by the Cui family, were killed on the official road forty miles outside Chang'an City.
"Your Majesty, after the survey was conducted by Chang'an County Government, there were many footprints of horse hooves. It was judged that there might be a horse thief who had robbed the road in the suburbs of Chang'an." Fang Xuanling and Li Shimin reported the news from below.
"This is impossible. There are at least 30 guards in the Boling Cui family. No arrows were found, which means they were killed head-on."
"There are so many people, without a hundred people, there will never be a single living person." Changsun Wuji shook his head and said.
Chang'an is the center of the Tang Dynasty, and there will definitely be no horse thief who dares to come here to play wildly.
The only possibility is that Cui Yan and the others were killed by their enemies.
And this enemy is obviously, except Zhao Chen, who would do this?
Destroy all the people of the Boling Cui family in Chang'an.
Even Changsun Wuji was shocked by this cruelty.
Changsun Wuji never thought that the boy with a smile every day would be so cruel when he started to act.
More than eighty lives were gone, just one thought.
Also, where did Zhao Chen find these individuals to take action?
If there are horses, is it the army?
"Your Majesty, I feel that this matter is very likely to be done by Zhao Chen and Zhao County. Yesterday, he smashed all the shops of Cui Family in Boling, and he must have great hatred for Cui Yan."
"Cui Yan must have been afraid of Zhao Chen's revenge on him, so he thought of leaving Chang'an quickly. Unexpectedly, he was still one step late and intercepted and killed by Zhao Chen on the road."
"Boling Cui's 82 lives, please let Your Majesty decide for them."
An official stood up and pushed all the responsibility to Zhao Chen.
Not to mention, I guessed it almost the same.
It's just that there's no evidence.
"Boling Cui clan made a lot of efforts when our Tang Dynasty was founded. Now half of the sect of the Boling Cui clan has been destroyed. If the real culprit is not found, who wouldn't be disheartened?"
"Please find out the truth for the people who died in Boling Cui." Another official knelt on the ground and begged Li Shimin.
At the beginning, the officials who were speaking to the aristocratic family belonged to, but the one who spoke from behind was Li Shimin's own person.
Obviously, Zhao Chen's actions did indeed inflict public anger.
The head of the Boling Cui family, the head of the dignified family, was actually killed.
What about these ordinary officials?
Who can do things with peace of mind in the future?
"Your Majesty, it is urgent to ask the Duke of Zhao County to come back and ask for the situation." Fang Xuanling also bowed and said.
If this matter is not handled properly, it will definitely cause a big problem.
Li Shimin frowned.
He didn't have to ask, and he knew that this must have been done by Zhao Chen.
And the horse hoof mark left behind must be the horse hoof mark of the Xuanjia Army's war horse.
But if Zhao Chen really leaves a handle, what should he do?
Take him down and let them deal with it?
This is absolutely impossible!
Then you must not let him go in front of the ministers.
Li Shimin was in a dilemma and even felt a little painful in his head.
But there was no way, and waved his hand and said, "Shubao, go to Wannian County and let Zhao Chen return to Chang'an immediately."
...
The prince did not go to court today.
But I also learned about Cui Yan's murder at the first time.
Only when Li Chengqian heard the news, he was shocked and sweated in a cold sweat on his back.
There were more than 80 people from the Cui family in Boling, and there was not even one escape.
Everyone was killed on the road.
Even the horse pulling the cart was not spared.
With such fierce means, Li Chengqian could not think of a second murderer besides the army.
Can Zhao Chen mobilize the army?
He never knew it, nor had he heard of it.
Zhao Chen killed Cui Yan, but he killed him without mercy.
Didn’t Zhao Chen know about Cui Yan’s previous conspiracy with him?
Li Chengqian was a little panicked.
He was wondering whether Cui Yan's death was deliberately shocking him?
"Helan Chushi, did the troops outside Chang'an City be mobilized yesterday?" Li Chengqian asked Helan Chushi beside him.
"Report to Your Highness, there is no transfer in the Chang'an military camp yesterday, so it shouldn't be done by the army..."
"Impossible. If it weren't for the army, there wouldn't be no living person in the Cui family."
"There are only a dozen generals in Zhao Chen's mansion, and they are all in Chang'an." Li Chengqian shook his head.
"Is it Li Jing..." Helan Chushi said.
Li Jing's prestige in the army is unmatched. If he had helped, he would definitely have completed this matter without showing any silence.
but……
"Li Jing, he won't do this." Li Chengqian shook his head.
No one continued to guess, as if this army had appeared out of thin air and disappeared out of thin air.
"Your Highness, Zhao Chen should be back tomorrow. At that time, will we take advantage of the opportunity in the court?
"No need." Li Chengqian waved his hand.
Li Chengqian knew in his heart that the reason why Zhao Chen was so ruthless and decisive must be that he knew that he had conspired with Cui Yan to deal with him.
There is one reason to kill Cui Yan, which is to use this to shock yourself.
Li Chengqian really didn't expect that Zhao Chen would be so cruel.
At this moment, even he was shocked.
