Chapter 705 Confession

The Prince's East Palace is strictly guarded.┌┐

This place is now becoming a place to detain Li Chengqian. Because Li Chengqian rebelled and Li Shimin suppressed his rebellion. Before he had time to deal with Li Chengqian, he was so angry that he had a stroke and ignored the government. In this case, Changsun Wuji supported Li Zhi, let him take the position of prince, let him ascend the throne and become emperor, and then he sent troops to Chang'an. Therefore, Li Chengqian's rebellion was not handled in time, and Changsun Wuji just detained him in the East Palace. As for the generals who followed Li Chengqian's rebellion, they did not deal with it in time. For example, Hou Junji was valued by Li Zhi and led his troops to resist Li Ke's army. Other generals were also pardoned, and they became members of the army against Li Ke.

The sky was already dark, and the prince's study was filled with alcohol. Since being imprisoned in the prince's mansion, Li Chengqian knew what his result would be, so he went out to drink all day long and drank, making himself drunk. The dim light slowly moved outside the study door, and with a "creak--" sound, the study opened. Two eunuchs who served Li Chengqian walked into the study.

"Your Highness--it's time to have a meal!" the eunuch said in a low voice.

"Wine - Where is the Lone King want to drink?" Li Chengqian said drunkenly on the chair. His eyes lost their light and his face turned scary.

"Your Highness-You can't drink any more?" the eunuch advised in a low voice.

They were all eunuchs who followed Li Chengqian for more than ten years and dared to say this.

"Bastard - are you rebelling? Haha - you, okay, even you don't take the lonely seriously now-" Li Chengqian cursed with a crazy smile, "Get out--get out--"

"Your Highness—the Northern King's army is already at the city—You drink so much will hurt your body—" the eunuch said lightly, and after that, he withdrew from the study.

The study room fell into darkness again, and Li Chengqian was stunned. "Is that true?————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

Li Chengqian suddenly became calm before, his voice seemed pale and desolate.

In the dark study, he saw his eyes bright and bright. He had the drunkenness he had just now, and he was clearly a wise crown prince.

At this time, Li Chengqian was sober.

In fact, what he has always been sober is that he pretended to be confused in front of Changsun Wuji.

Because he knew that he had no Li Ke's courage and Li Tai's talent, what did he have? Nothing. The only thing he had was an uncle who was very happy when he saw his cowardice. So he learned to pretend to be stupid, learned to give up his abilities, and be a person who was at the mercy of others. What was the purpose of doing this? The throne was naturally the position of the emperor. Because he knew very well that his uncle Changsun Wuji was very powerful and obsessed with him. He was definitely a powerful minister. Only by giving up his abilities and fully trusting and relying on him can he help himself get the throne.

Li Chengqian couldn't help but sigh.

However, he still made a mistake and couldn't help it because he had had enough of Changsun Wuji's mercy.

Therefore, after Changsun Wuji left Chang'an, he believed in the suggestions of the generals and Hou Junji, and wanted to obtain the throne through their means, so he launched a coup in Ganquan Palace. However, he did not expect that his six-pointer in the East Palace was too cowardly, and 6,000 people were defeated by two thousand Qianniu Guards, so he lost the opportunity and asked Li Xian, who led his troops to rescue him again, resulting in the failure of his plan.

However, Li Chengqian did not regret it at all. What he regretted was why he didn't fight for it himself, but wanted to obtain the throne through other people's means? If he fought for it himself, why would he have the opportunity today? Yes, he was not a man at the mercy of others, otherwise why would he plan to rebel after Changsun Wuji left Chang'an? Don't you want to obtain the throne for him and be at the mercy of him?

In the quiet study, Li Chengqian's eyes were left with tears without realizing it.

"Li Ke——" Li Chengqian whispered, "You will be awarded the throne, but I don't know what will happen to Changsun Wuji after you ascend the throne?" Then, he laughed, "You will definitely not be like lonely, you will kill him. Because, everything you have obtained by your own efforts, you don't need anything-"

After laughing, Li Chengqian climbed on the table and fell asleep deeply.

At this moment, a black shadow suddenly flashed outside the study room.

Under the dim lights of the corridor, it can be vaguely seen that he was the eunuch who had just persuaded Li Chengqian.

He hurried out of the Eastern Palace and came to Liangyi Hall.

In Liangyi Hall, Li Shimin often handled government affairs at this time.

But now, since Li Ke's army was outside the city, Changsun Wuji combined power and Li Zhi became the defeated emperor. Therefore, the Liangyi Palace has become the place where he and the ministers discuss military affairs. It was already dark, but Changsun Wuji still did not leave, quietly sitting on the chair Li Shimin used to make. His face was ugly, his brows were frowning, and he seemed very anxious.

Indeed, just now, he heard someone report a terrible news to him, that is, Hou Junji was in his mansion. Hou Junji didn't say anything when he was in his life, but just left a letter to his daughter Hou Ruoyi. Changsun Wuji didn't care what was written in that letter. What he cared about was who could command the 150,000 army outside the city after Hou Junji died? Changsun Wuji knew very well that when Hou Junji was alive, he used his military talents and the army.

With qualifications, his only one who can command troops to fight against Li Ke. Now that he is dead, who can still fight against Li Ke? In fact, there are two more people, Li Xiaogong and Li Daozong. But Changsun Wuji did not believe these two people at all. Especially Li Daozong, with his son and Li Ke and his relationship with Li Ke, Changsun Wuji dared not give him the power of the military. Now he is sending people to secretly monitor him so that he will not have any trouble.

For a long time, Changsun Wuji discovered that there was no general in the court that could be confronted. He was either too old or too reckless. For a moment, he found that he seemed to have taken a wrong move. He should not support Li Zhi ascended the throne. However, who should he support Li Zhi ascended the throne? Is Li Tai? With Li Tai's relationship with him, he supports him ascending the throne. Will he still have a way out? Besides, even if Li Tai ascended the throne, would Li Ke not rebel? No, Li Ke will definitely rebel. In addition to Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, who else would Li Ke be afraid of? No one would be afraid. Therefore, he could only take this step, and if he didn't leave, he could only wait to die.

Suddenly, Changsun Wuji found himself very smart. In fact, he only realized that he was very stupid until now. He had already entered Li Ke's trap, but he had not discovered it.

Although I beat him in the court, I lost in front of the world!

"Stop—" suddenly a voice shouted, "Who are you?"

The voice of the guards outside the door interrupted Changsun Wuji's thoughts.

"I am Zhang Da from the East Palace. I came to report the situation to Changsun Sikong--" a eunuch shouted outside the door.

"Let him come in--" Changsun Wuji said coldly.

"No—" the guard outside the door shouted.

Under the light, an eunuch walked into Liangyi Hall in small steps.

"Tell me - what the hell is it that you are coming to find me in the middle of the night -" Changsun Wuji asked impatiently. If it weren't for the eunuchs in the East Palace, he would probably ignore the others. But the eunuchs in the East Palace are different. The special person Zhang Da is the eyeliner set up by the East Palace and the eyeliner he arranged by Li Chengqian. As long as he looks for himself, what will happen to Li Chengqian. This time it was precisely because of the news of the eunuchs that he knew about Li Chengqian and Hou Junji's rebellion plan, and he would escape the disaster.

When Zhang Da met Changsun Wuji, he told Changsun Wuji everything he heard outside the study.

After listening to it, Changsun Wuji's expression did not change at all. He said to Zhang Da, "You go back and continue to monitor--"

"No" Zhang Da left.

Seeing Zhang Da's figure disappearing in Liangyi Hall, Changsun Wuji smiled coldly, "Sure enough, I still took a look away. Emperor - Changsun Wuji admires you. You are indeed powerful. It turns out that you have known your son's ability to be appointed as the crown prince, right?" Changsun Wuji sighed faintly, "But, Li Chengqian is anxious and cunning enough. After all, he met another Li Ke who looks more like you - he is forced to rebel. Is this rare fate?" After Changsun Wuji finished speaking, he glanced at Yang Fei's Qianqiu Palace and continued, "Hehe, why aren't the Zhinu shrewd?"
