Traveling through the troubled times of Sui and Tang Dynasties

When Li Jiancheng rushed into Li Yuanji's big tent angrily, the latter was sitting quietly on the edge of the bed. From this angle, this gesture is unusually ambiguous.Not to mention, after feeding the medicine, he gently wiped the medicine dregs off the person's mouth, with a careful look, like treating a treasure.

Isn't it a treasure?Even when he brought someone into the tent, he never turned his head back for such a big commotion.

"His Royal Highness...His Royal Highness King Qi is busy. If you don't see any guests before noon, don't be a subordinate..." After being barged in by Li Jiancheng, the scalp of the guard guarding the tent became numb. Only then did he dare to stop His Highness the Prince's fight, but King Qi had clearly ordered no one to come in early in the morning.At this moment, he paused for a while and let His Royal Highness come in. Afterwards, he didn't know how King Qi should entertain himself.Thinking of the tragedy of massacring the city in the past two days, the heart-piercing cries and begging for mercy, the blood-red eyes almost soaked the entire Liaodong City... The guard was terrified and chased after him even though he knew he couldn't. Stop it, you have to stop it... At least it is rumored that His Highness the Crown Prince is gentle and refined, much better than the violent and perverse King Qi who treats human life like nothing.

Li Jiancheng stared at the person in front of him like a torch. Since when did even a small guard stop paying attention to him?My heart was full of anger, and just about to explode, I listened to the words of the people in the tent.

"You go down first, presumably His Royal Highness must have something important to discuss with me, no problem."

The guard guarding the tent breathed a sigh of relief. Just as he was about to turn around and leave, he heard a voice behind him: "If there is another time, you just drag it out and chop it up. You can't even guard the door. What do you want?"

The guard staggered and almost fell, he knelt down and apologized, and then left the tent in fear.

Li Jiancheng frowned and looked at the person in front of him. He had the same face, but he seemed to be a different person. Li Yuanji was also arrogant and domineering before, but now he became more and more gloomy, making people uncertain.

"Third brother is so powerful! Why make things difficult for these slaves, since you have resentment, just tell me directly."

Li Jiancheng's image has always been gentle and elegant, loving the people like a son, so it's normal to speak for the servants like this. Compared with Li Yuanji, who plays with his temper and is capricious, he seems to be more magnanimous. The sensible, unreasonable younger brother speaks in the same way.

In the past, Li Yuanji would have laughed heartlessly, made jokes, and tried to save face, that's all. After all, Li Jiancheng was the eldest brother that Li Yuanji recognized.But at this moment Li Yuanji didn't say a word, didn't even stand up to salute, but raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Jiancheng with a half-smile.

Those eyes contained jokes, sarcasm, indignation, accusations... In short, there was no brotherhood.

Li Jiancheng felt uncomfortable when he was looked at by that look. You must know that Li Jiancheng said before that to Li Yuanji, this is equivalent to an imperial decree.

Just when Li Jiancheng was about to be silent, Li Yuanji finally stood up, walked to the wooden basin as if no one else was there, washed his hands, dried them, and then turned around and said, "Brother angrily brought all these cronies to my house." I'm afraid they didn't just come to chat with me."

Li Jiancheng was startled, he was almost fooled by Li Yuanji's abnormal behavior just now, and then he remembered the purpose of this trip, and said straight to the point: "Yuan Ji, tell the soldiers to stop! I miss my majestic Li family , How can a country be governed by benevolence to do such an inhumane thing as a massacre of a city?"

Li Yuanji raised the corners of his lips, shrugged his shoulders, and said helplessly, "The butcher is dead, what should I do?"

"One day of massacre is also massacre, and this massacre of two days is also massacre. I can make my elder brother fulfill his wish and make the soldiers stop, but this has been done. It doesn't mean that if you stop now, you can treat it as if nothing happened, and do it. pass."

After hearing this, Li Jiancheng thought to himself, Yuan Ji's words were punned, he was clearly saying that the relationship between the two brothers could not get back together, if he did it, he did it, and he did it to Luo Cheng.

In this room, Li Jiancheng was in a state of confusion, and he didn't know where to start. Someone in the prince's camp couldn't hold back anymore, and said directly: "His Royal Highness, you slaughtered the city, and you know the order from your Royal Highness. I don’t know, but I thought it was His Highness the Crown Prince’s order, after all, the Commander is His Highness the Crown Prince! If you do this, how will the people of the world think of His Highness the Crown Prince?” Tyrants, bloodthirsty, militaristic, and inhumane… are all frivolous. of.

After Yang Wengan finished speaking, he regretted it in his heart. He was too impulsive. This Li Yuanji is a person who dares to do anything. Now that he blatantly offends him, how can he have good fruit in the future.

Soon, there is no need to think about the future.

Because Li Yuanji was really angry, he was busy taking care of Luo Cheng these two days, he only gave the order to massacre the city, and simply and rudely took revenge on the Goguryeo captives who besieged and killed Luo Cheng. A "counselor" who fanned the flames came.

No, here comes the killer.

Li Yuanji squinted his eyes, and asked in a cold voice, "You are Yang Wenqian?"

Yang Wenqian was taken aback for a moment, and then replied, "It's my subordinate."

As soon as the words fell, the person on the other side said: "Come here, tie up this dog for me, and drag it out to feed the dog."

Yang Wengan turned pale when he heard it. Although he didn't know that Yang Lin's adoptive son came to Chang'an City to deliver a letter and reported that Luo Cheng, who was still Luo Shaobao at the time, had colluded with Wagang Village and intended to rebel, and was chopped up by Li Yuanji and fed to the dog, but he also I heard that Li Yuanji had several vicious dogs in his backyard.It is said that these vicious dogs are tall, strong and strong, with sharp canine teeth like knives, fierce and aggressive, and I don’t know how many times they have bitten people by accident.

Yang Wengan suddenly collapsed on the ground, beads of sweat rolled down his forehead, and he was unable to speak.

"Presumptuous! Yuan Ji, he is mine, you dare to touch him? Do you dare to touch me?" Li Jiancheng narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Brother is just too soft-hearted. This slave committed the above crime just now, and he dared to accuse me. Why? Shouldn't I kill him? This kind of dog slave can't recognize his own position, so death is not a pity .”

At this moment, upon hearing His Royal Highness King Qi's order, the guards who had already entered the camp stepped forward, erecting Yang Wengan, who was limp on the ground, on one left and one on the right, and was about to walk out the door, without daring to take a second look at Li Jiancheng's place.

None of the counselors brought by Li Jiancheng actually interceded for him. In the final analysis, it was Yang Wengan who was too shady and ruthless in his work. He often let other people wear small shoes in order to gain a position in front of the prince. Therefore, Everyone has disliked him for a long time, and now they are silent, thinking that it would be better if you are such a scourge, otherwise, His Royal Highness might let you lead him into trouble.

Just when Yang Wengan was being dragged out of the tent, he finally came to his senses, if he didn't beg for mercy, he would really die!

"Your Highness, Your Highness, please save the little one, the little one is only thinking of you, Your Highness..." Yang Wenqian didn't know where the strength came from, but he broke away from the guards on both sides, rushed over, and hugged Li Jiancheng pant legs.

Immediately, he burst into tears, with tears and snot streaming down his nose, staining Li Jiancheng's clothes. Li Jiancheng frowned in disgust. It was okay to look at this person on weekdays, but he never thought it would be so useless. Looking embarrassed.

Li Jiancheng was lost in thought for a while, but Yang Wenqian didn't know that when he saw that the crown prince didn't speak for him, he felt a thump in his heart, and quickly knelt down in front of Li Yuanji again, wailing, "His Royal Highness, please forgive me! Please, Your Highness, Prince Qi!"

Li Yuanji glanced at him coldly, and his voice seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth: "Forgive you? Forgive you, Luo Chengcheng won't have to suffer this much? Forgive you, will Luo Chengcheng wake up immediately? Now I wish I could let you taste all the sufferings he suffered a thousand times and a thousand times over."

Only now did Yang Wengan realize that the reason why King Qi disliked him and wanted to kill him quickly was entirely because of the unknown person lying on the bed.

Since Li Yuanji dared to say that, he must have realized that he was the one who encouraged the crown prince to kill Luo Cheng, so there is no way for him to survive now.

Yang Wenqian's strength seemed to be drained all of a sudden, and he fell to the ground.

But Li Yuanji's guards were not so easy to deal with. Even if Yang Wengan was paralyzed on the ground with fright, he still forcibly carried him away without any delay.If someone is not careful, maybe they are the ones feeding the dog.

"Prince, Your Highness, you must save me! I tried my best to persuade General Luo to be killed because of you. If you didn't want to kill General Luo, would I have made such a sinister idea? I have no hatred with General Luo in the past. , I have no injustice recently, I can't make it difficult for him!"

I just said that Li Jiancheng didn’t want to save Yang Wenqian, but missed it because of a thought. Now he wanted to save others, but when he heard him talking nonsense and involved himself, he was furious and kicked Yang Wengan away. : "What nonsense are you talking about!"

Seeing this, Yang Wengan, who was kicked to the ground by the prince, said in horror: "Prince, if you were not worried that Luo Cheng would help His Highness King Qin, and then threaten your position as prince, I would not kill Luo Cheng." Will offer advice...Prince, you can't..."

When Li Jiancheng heard this, he was startled, and quickly put his foot up again. This time, Yang Wenqian let out a muffled snort, spat blood, and would not be able to get up for a while.

The counselors behind Li Jiancheng also shook their heads. Although this is the truth, the crown prince refused to send troops to support General Luo. There are victims.But I can't stand Yang Wengan's stupidity. If he dies silently, the prince will definitely save him. After all, he was brought by the prince, and he didn't make any big mistakes. He's all offended, who can protect him?I am afraid that the first person who wants to kill him is the crown prince.

If people know that the prince who has always been a virtuous prince, in order to consolidate his position as the prince, framed good generals when the two countries were at war, and wanted to avenge his savior in the past. ... How can such a pious villain convince the generals!Even if he ascends to the throne in the future, there will be stains, and it is uncommon for people to scold him behind his back.

Li Yuanji glanced at the fainted person on the ground, hooked the corners of his lips, and said sarcastically, "His Royal Highness, can you let me deal with this dog slave now?"

Before Li Jiancheng could speak, Li Yuanji said, "Don't drag him down yet."

The guards hurried forward to drag him away.

All the counselors kept their eyes on their noses, their noses on their hearts, and kept silent. Once he was dragged out of the camp, one could imagine his end. Some people even started to think about whether they had ever had trouble with General Luo... in the future, they would have to go around General Luo Let's go, we can't hit him with ideas.

Invisibly, Li Yuanji laid the foundation for Luo Cheng to kill all directions and expand the territory in the future. At least no one dared to arrange what Luo Cheng would do.

These are things for later, so I won't mention them for now.

After Li Yuanji dealt with Yang Wengan, he clasped his hands behind his back, turned his back, and said, "Your Highness, please go back. The order has already been issued and the city has been slaughtered. Even if you stop now, it's too late."

"I understand the purpose of your trip, isn't it because you are afraid that the massacre of the city will affect your good reputation? Will it affect your status in the eyes of the people? Don't worry, I, Li Yuanji, did this. One person does one thing and one person takes care of it. I will truthfully report to my father and post a notice to tell the world that the massacre of Liaodong City has nothing to do with you, it is entirely my idea."

"However, since I said three days to massacre the city, then one day will not work!"

"His Royal Highness, let's go back. Someone has to pay for Luo Cheng's injury. I think about our brotherhood for so many years. I won't move you this time, but you know, it made me anxious. I don't care about anything." I can do it. Unlike you and Erhu, I have so many concerns. I don’t want to be emperor, and I don’t want to seize power. A good reputation is even more bullshit to me. My weakness is just one, you know, so don’t Do it again, or—”
