Chapter 368: Prince Rebellion Part 2

Li Shimin had already fallen asleep, and suddenly a guard came to report that Zhang Liang asked for a meeting and had something to report. Li Shimin was so angry that he was so tired after rushing all day. He didn't have a good sleep in the middle of the night. He came out to hunt and wanted to temporarily put aside the government and relax. He was so fucked to make trouble for himself. Although Li Shimin was very reluctant, he was an emperor with good self-control. He still got up, and he got up with anger and yawned and put on clothes under the service of the palace maids. The palace maids were so slow that he was sleepy and anxious to go to bed after chatting. So he simply stopped wearing a coat and went straight to Zhang Liang to report the matter. The fastest update

After Zhang Liang came in, he reported directly: "Your Majesty, Hou Junji is interested in rebellion, I hope Your Majesty is careful."

Li Shimin frowned and asked quickly, "Do you have a certificate?"

Zhang Liang was embarrassed for a moment and could only bow down: "Your Majesty forgives the crime. This is just my guess. I have no evidence."

"There is no evidence?" Li Shimin was unhappy when he heard this, but he still asked patiently, "Then why do you have this guess? There must be a basis for no evidence, right?"

Zhang Liang was about to say that he saw Hou Junji conspiring with the prince late at night, but then he thought: "If I say that, it would be equivalent to impeaching the prince for rebellion. If he won the impeachment, it would be fine. If he failed to impeachment, wouldn't the emperor want to slash me with one knife? How could the prince slander at will? And it was a serious crime of rebellion."

Zhang Liang was in a dilemma for a while. After hesitating for a long time, he finally gave up the idea of ​​impeaching the prince and said, "I found that Hou Junji was very abnormal."

"Oh? How abnormal Hou Junji? Why didn't I notice it?" Li Shimin felt that Zhang Liang was a bit abnormal.

Zhang Liang didn't know what to say for a moment, and wanted to give up so he could only bite the bullet and said, "I don't know why, but I just think something is wrong with Hou Junji, and there seems to be murderous intent in his eyes."

"How can people who conquer the battlefield go to the battlefield without murderous intent?" Li Shimin was already filled with anger. He felt that Zhang Liang was just here to spend time with him, and said impatiently, "Do you have anything to say?"

Zhang Liang lowered his head and said, "Go back to Your Majesty, there is no more."

"Then go back, I'm going to rest."

"Yes, I will leave." Zhang Liang said withdrew depressedly.

Li Shimin was about to go back to bed and continue to sleep, but he always felt something was wrong, so he summoned Li Yuanzhong and said, "Tell me my order to strengthen patrols at night and keep a close eye on Hou Junji's camp."

"Yes!" Li Yuanzhong took the order and retreated.

He was speechless all night, and the next morning, everything was normal. Li Shimin felt that he was indeed suspicious. Hou Junji followed him to fight south and north for many years, how could he rebel? What are the benefits of rebellion against him? So Li Shimin stopped thinking about it and ordered to start hunting.

However, just as Li Shimin passed through the forest, a hidden arrow suddenly flew out and shot Li Shimin. Fortunately, Li Shimin was also a soldier and reacted very quickly. He dodged for a while in a critical moment. The feather arrow failed to hit the vital point, but shot Li Shimin under the collarbone. Li Shimin fell into a coma on the spot. The scene was in chaos. Everyone carried Li Shimin back to the camp, and everyone was frightened.

Half an hour later, a shocking shout of killing sound suddenly came from the foot of the mountain. Countless soldiers rushed up the mountain, with as many as 20,000 people, including the left and right guards and some miscellaneous troops. The leader was Li Anyan, the general of the left and right guards.

Li Anyan was originally Li Jiancheng's old subordinate. During the Xuanwu Gate Incident, he fought bloody battles to protect Li Jiancheng, but was finally captured alive. Seeing his loyalty and courage, Li Shimin thought he was a man, and not only pardoned him, but also valued him.

Li Anyan actually always missed his old master Li Jiancheng and wanted to avenge Li Jiancheng. This time the prince wanted to rebel. After Hou Junji summoned his old subordinates, he found that there were only 10,000 people. He was not very sure, so he went to find Li Anyan. He actually discovered that Li Anyan was not sincerely loyal to Li Shimin. Sure enough, Li Anyan agreed without hesitation.

The Jinwu Guards and Yulin Guards were forced to retreat step by step by step by step by step by step by step by step, retreating to three miles near the camp before stopping, taking advantage of the geographical advantage to guard the death. Hou Junji and the prince took advantage of the chaos and brought the guards out, entered the army, and met with Li Anyan.

Li Anyan was originally the leader of Li Jiancheng's guards. Although he was good at martial arts, he was not good at marching and setting up formations. So he handed over the command of the army to Hou Junji. They advocated in the army that King Li Tai of Wei held the emperor hostage and intended to rebel, and that they came to serve the king. Alas, most of the rebellions were routines, as long as the senior leaders fooled the middle or lower-level people, it would be fine.

Hou Junji also sent someone to pretend to shout at the mountain, asking Li Tai to hand over the emperor and to surrender himself. After Li Tai heard those words in the camp, he was so angry that his body was trembling with fat. He felt that he was probably offended by Tai Sui today, and he didn't mess with anyone. Suddenly he was labeled as a treason and was so unjustly accused of death. Everyone was anxious and looked at Li Tai with sympathy.

Since Li Shimin was in a coma and could not come forward to clarify, the soldiers of the left and right guards believed that Li Tai had held the emperor hostage and launched several fierce attacks on the Yulin Guards and Jinwu Guards on the mountain under the leadership of Hou Junji. Unfortunately, the camp was built very solidly, and they were all built based on the mountain and geographical location. It was easy to defend but difficult to attack, so they could not attack for a while.

Li Chengqian sat in the tent on the hillside waiting for the news, but after Hou Junji came back, he told him that he could not attack. Li Chengqian was furious and told him to attack without any sacrifice.

Of course, Hou Junji could not have been able to follow the prince's blind command. That would have been a search for death. Li Chengqian did not know anything about war, so he knew what, so Hou Junji proposed to set fire to the mountain.

This was a clever plan, but Li Chengqian refused to agree. He didn't want Li Shimin to die. He wanted to capture Li Shimin alive. He wanted to revenge Li Shimin. He must sit on the throne in front of him, and then kill all Li Shimin's close relatives, making him feel in pain.

Hou Junji was shocked. How could he not be shocked? Seeing that he could rebel successfully with just one fire, but now he has to take a detour because of his perverted mentality. Hou Junji is so unwilling to accept it. He argues with reason and demands to set fire.

Li Chengqian was furious and suddenly slapped the table and shouted: "Hou Junji, you are very brave! Otherwise, after the success, let you sit on the throne of the emperor!"

Hou Junji was suddenly timid. In ancient times, the rituals were strict, and emperors of all dynasties made great contributions. Why did the emperors of the past dynasties emphasize the rituals and formulate human ethics in order to fool the people? As a prince, Li Shimin was poked at the back and scolded for many years. His surname was Hou Junji, but he was not surnamed Li. Even if the rebellion was successful, how could it be his turn to sit on the throne? All officials did not agree, and all the people would not agree, unless he killed all officials and became a bare emperor. But what was the point of such an emperor? Besides, he did not have that ability. The troops in various places were not a joke. They would definitely come to serve the king. It was too difficult for a different surname to rebel and change the dynasty.

An Lushan had successfully rebelled, but was overthrown by the forces from various places. Then the Li family continued to rise to power and become emperor. The ritual system bound people's thoughts. The people felt that the world was named Li and no one could replace it unless the court was already in a state of being overwhelmed and disappointed the people.

In the end, Hou Junji had to compromise, gave up the plan to set fire, and continued to mobilize troops to attack. The Yulin Guard and Jinwu Guard on the mountain were under cruel pressure. Gradually, the defense line was torn apart by the left and right guards, and they were almost attacked into the camp. Li Yuanzhong led the Jinwu Guards to fight bloody battles and then retreated them. Night fell, and the troops were temporarily suspended. Both sides counted the losses of the battle. The Yulin Guard and Jinwu Guards suffered heavy losses. The original eight thousand people were only six thousand left, and there were two thousand wounded soldiers, and Hou Junji had more than 14,000 people left.

It was just late, and two teams of thousands of people quietly set out from Chang'an and rushed towards Shanghe Village, Lantian County. The team was led by Du He and Zhao Jie. They came to kill Li Hao's family under the order of Li Chengqian.

Fortunately, Li Hao's family was guarded by two hundred Xuanjia Army, so Zhao Jie and Du He did not make things difficult for those families who lived next to the Marquis' Mansion, so they only attacked the Marquis' Mansion. After all, they came to kill Li Hao's whole family under the order of the prince, and they also had personal grudges with Li Hao.

Xue Rengui and Chen Bin took two hundred Xuanjia Army to guard the Marquis' Mansion to the death. It would be absolutely no problem to talk about the power of the Xuanjia Army, but they are good at rushing and killing, and are not good at protecting people. At this moment, in order to protect the Marquis' family, they cannot form an Iron Turtle Battle Formation, so their power is naturally greatly reduced. Fortunately, their individual combat capabilities are quite high, after all, they are elite troops.

Although the Xuanjia Army has very strong individual combat capabilities, it still feels difficult to face ten times the strength of the troops. Fortunately, the Hou Mansion has a high school courtyard and the enemy has not brought any equipment. He can't capture it for a long time and can only shoot arrows in the Hou Mansion. This is what Xuanjia Army is good at. He erects shields to form a shield wall to protect the Hou Mansion family.

Just when Du He and Zhao Jie were attacking the Hou's Mansion, Li Hao and Chen Song were already riding through Chang'an and running towards Lantian. The closer they were to home, the more they missed their homes, and they always felt a little uneasy.

As soon as I entered Shanghe Village, I saw the villagers shouting and greeting Li Hao, pointing at them all over the place. Seeing that they looked very anxious, Li Hao asked them to say one by one, and finally heard clearly: "Marquis! There are a large group of soldiers attacking your Marquis' Mansion!"

Li Hao was shocked and quickly led Chen Song to the Marquis's Mansion.

Still far away, I saw countless torches lit around the huge marquis' mansion, illuminating the surroundings of the marquis' mansion in the dark. After a rough count, there were one or two thousand people.

"Mr. Marquis! What should I do?" Chen Song asked in surprise.

"They are looking for death!" Li Haochen shouted, looked carefully in the crowd for a while, and found Du He and Zhao Jie. He pointed at the two of them and said, "There are two people in their heads, one Zhao Jie, the one in white robe, and the other Du He, the one in purple clothes. Let's capture the thief first, and rush over to catch the two of them. You catch the white clothes, and I catch the purple clothes."

"Okay!" Chen Song didn't say anything, and whipped the horse with Li Hao at the same time and rushed towards the Marquis' Mansion.

Du He and Zhao Jie were originally playboys and were not proficient in fighting, so they would simply lead troops. Their only advantage was that they had a large number of people, two thousand people. What is the concept? They were all vast and vast.

At this moment, Zhao Jie and Du He were smiling and chatting on the hill in front of the Marquis' Mansion. Listening to the shouts of killing around him, he felt extremely comfortable, and he felt like he was planning to win thousands of miles away. Moreover, this time they were dealing with their enemy Li Hao, so they didn't feel too happy.

All the soldiers stepped forward to attack the Marquis' Mansion, and there were only a dozen people guarding them. In the darkness, Li Hao and Chen Song rode their horses, and the sound of horse hooves was covered by the shouts of killing around them, and Du He and the others did not notice them at all.

When they found Li Hao and Chen Song, Li Hao was only twenty meters away from them, and someone exclaimed: "Protect your sir!"

More than a dozen people hurriedly wanted to stop Li Hao and Chen Song.

Chen Song and Li Hao had already arrived in front of them with the help of this brief time. Li Hao drew out the Tang sword and Chen Song drew out the sword. The cold light of the sword emitted a cold and cold light under the dim moonlight, and swung towards the soldiers standing in front of him.
