Outside Tiance Mansion, following Li Shimin's order, the fighting between the two sides immediately stopped. The men and horses on both sides retreated, and the swords in the soldiers' hands were still bleeding.

"How can you be willing to let my family go? Tell me your conditions!"

Li Shimin said in a cold tone, not wanting to talk nonsense to Li Chengdao at all.

"It's very simple. You tell your troops to get out of the way now. I will take the people out of the city. Thirty miles after leaving Chang'an City, I will naturally let them go after I confirm that it is safe."

Li Chengdao said lightly.

However, Li Shimin sneered and said: "Thirty miles away from Chang'an City before releasing people? Do you think that I am a fool? Will you believe such nonsense?"

If Li Shimin were to stand in Li Chengdao's position, he would never let him go.

The situation has developed to this point. Changsun Wugou and others can either kill them or keep them as hostages. These are the only two options.

"You release him immediately. I guarantee my reputation and promise to let you leave Chang'an."

Li Shimin raised his chin and said seriously.

Not many people in the world can refuse the promise he made as a dignified general and King of Qin.

But what he never expected was that Li Chengdao burst into laughter after hearing this.

I saw Li Chengdao riding on horseback, looking sideways at Li Shimin, and said with a sarcastic face:

"Reputation? You, a treacherous traitor who killed his brother and forced his father, do you have any reputation at all?

How dare such an unfaithful, unfilial, unkind, and unjust beast dare to lie about his reputation? "

Li Chengdao's eyes were cold and he said word by word: "I cannot trust you, a traitor who has committed rebellion.

This king is making conditions with you, not negotiating with you!

Either accept my conditions, or your wife, sons and daughters will all die here and be buried for me. "

Li Chengdao was aggressive and had no intention of giving in to Li Shimin. Li Shimin flatly refused after hearing his words:

"impossible!"

Just as Li Chengdao didn't trust him, how could he trust Li Chengdao?

Neither of them is willing to give in, so this is a dead end!

At this point, the negotiation between the two can be declared to have collapsed.

Li Chengdao was not in a hurry, looked at Li Shimin and sneered.

Then with a wave of his hand, one of the prince's guards immediately captured an eight or nine-year-old child from among the captive Li Shimin family members.

This child looks very similar to Li Shimin.

Among the brothers, he is the one who looks closest to Li Shimin.

He is none other than Li Ke, who has the blood of two emperors!

"Don't mess around."

Li Shimin was shocked, fearing that Li Chengdao would chop off Li Ke's head again just like Li Tai.

Li Chengdao ignored Li Shimin's scolding, tied Li Ke firmly, and then dragged him behind the horse.

Seeing this scene, everyone's expressions changed. They still didn't understand what Li Chengdao wanted to do!

"You stop me!"

Li Shimin yelled, his eyes bloodshot.

The eldest grandson Wugou, who was also imprisoned, held his eldest daughter Li Lizhi tightly in his arms.

Next to her, Yang Guang's daughter was once a princess of the Sui Dynasty.

Now Concubine Yang, who was committed to marrying Li Shimin, kowtowed crazily on the ground and begged Li Chengdao to let Li Ke go.

Li Chengdao, who became the focus of everyone, whipped down the riding crop in his hand.

The tall horse beneath him felt pain and immediately dragged Li Ke and ran away.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuah...Father, save me!"

Li Ke cried loudly, his voice hoarse.

He was dragged wildly by the war horse, and his clothes were torn to pieces, exposing his tender body.

The horses galloped back and forth.

Soon, Li Ke's back was a bloody mess!

"Shut up!"

Li Ke's tragic situation made Li Shimin's eyes sparkle with anger.

Li Chengdao was hard-hearted and continued to drag Li Ke to run wildly regardless of the situation.

If Li Shimin doesn't bow his head, why should he care about other people's sons?

Inside and outside Tiance Mansion, countless soldiers felt terrified.

In addition to being shocked and stunned by Li Chengdao's ruthless methods, he was also frightened and frightened by Li Shimin, who had always remained indifferent after witnessing the tragedy of his parents and children.

"Ke'er! My Ke'er!"

Among the many hostages captured by Li Chengdao, a beautiful woman cried so hard that she almost fainted.

This woman is Li Ke’s biological mother, Concubine Yang!

She lay on the ground with despair on her face and cried hoarsely, like a cuckoo crying blood.

"Your Highness, save Ke!"

"Please, Your Highness, save our child!"

Concubine Yang's miserable and mournful appearance made everyone who saw this scene feel pity.

She begged Li Shimin to agree to Li Chengdao's conditions, otherwise Li Ke would really be dragged to death.

However, Li Shimin just looked gloomy and didn't say a word.

Next to Concubine Yang, eldest grandson Wugou and other Li Shimin's wives and children all turned pale.

They feared that Li Chengdao would be ruthless and cruel.

But he was even more frightened and frightened when he refused to save Li Shimin.

Finally, amid Concubine Yang's shrill cries for mercy, Li Ke's screams gradually became fainter until they disappeared.

By the time Li Chengdao reined in his horse and stopped, Li Ke had become a bloody corpse.

Concubine Yang spit out a mouthful of blood and fainted completely.

"Clap-pop-pop-"

Li Chengdao clapped his hands gently and said lightly:

"As expected of a rebellious traitor who can kill his brother and force his father, I have high regard for your bottom line as a human being.

Yes, what you did was simply an act of an animal.

A mere son is nothing. "

The ridicule and contempt in his words were not concealed at all.

The generals and soldiers behind Li Shimin were all shaken in their hearts.

The people they followed were so cold-blooded.

Even if you reach a high position in the future, will you end up well?

Li Shimin stared at Li Chengdao so hard that his steel teeth almost shattered him.

"It's really a good idea. Brother, you really gave birth to a good son!"

He had a clear mind and had already seen Li Chengdao's intention behind dragging Li Ke backwards with his war horse.

If he couldn't watch Li Ke being dragged to death by Ma and finally compromised and surrendered, then he would have to agree to Li Chengdao's conditions and let him leave Chang'an.

If he was just watching with cold eyes like he is now, he would be indifferent to watching Li Ke being dragged to death.

Then all the officers and soldiers under his command would feel dissatisfied.

After all, how could a man who could even sacrifice his own son care about the soldiers under his command?

This is a heart-breaking tactic and a estrangement tactic.

And no matter which choice Li Shimin makes.

The last person to benefit will be Li Chengdao.

"Haha, I can't compare to you, a traitor who watched your son being dragged to death by this king.

Such a hard-hearted person cannot be compared to this king. "

After Li Chengdao sneered, his voice suddenly rose.

"Feng Li, behead all the family members of the traitor Li Shimin!"...
