Chapter six hundred and seventy second gentle villain
A person's ability may indeed be somewhat due to his nature. For example, some people are smart since they are born, and nothing can be hindered. All the troubles they encounter in their lives can be easily resolved in his hands, and they can reach the best without any danger. Some people are born without any ability, but their luck is surprisingly good, as if they were kissed by God before reincarnation. The halo of luck accompanies them throughout their lives. They basically cannot encounter unlucky or troubles. The journey is smooth and they fall asleep with a smile at the end of their lives.
Smartness and luck are both born, but a person’s ability is learned after birth. It is the most solid thing and something that truly belongs to you. Once you have it, it will basically accompany you for a lifetime. You can rely on it to support your family and fulfill your life's ambitions.
But the ability is limited. No matter how exquisite you learn, there is always a higher mountain waiting for you to conquer. Therefore, any truly smart person must have a very clear and objective understanding of his own abilities, and be able to clearly know what he can do and what he will never do.
If you have such an understanding of yourself, unless you have a particularly bad luck in your life, you will never fail anywhere. At least you can live smoothly until you have a lot of children and grandchildren and die.
It is obvious that Li Chengqian does not have such a perception, or that the situation has forced him to the point where he has to sacrifice his life.
In the eyes of outsiders, Li Chengqian felt that he was very sure to succeed because his father gave him a good start. Seventeen years ago, Li Shimin was facing the same situation as he is now. His status was in danger and his life was also worried about his life. However, he relied on a group of loyal generals and unexpected surprise attacks. He was like an adventure of taking away the chest from the fire, a cruel and ruthless slaughter, and finally he won the king and lost the enemy, and the country was in control.
With such a living example in front of you, it is no wonder that Li Chengqian is full of confidence. In his opinion, success can be replicated.
But those who are familiar with it know very well that Li Chengqian will never succeed.
Li Shimin's success cannot be copied, and it has been passed down through the ages. There can only be one example of success, and whoever copies it will die.
So while Li Chengqian was full of confidence, in the Wei Palace in Chang'an City, Li Su and Li Tai were like two patient hunters, quietly waiting for the prey to enter the trap they set up.
"His Royal Highness of Wei, have everything been arranged?"
Li Tai narrowed his eyes, his pitifully small eyes were squeezed by the fat on his face, and only two slits were left.
"The palace has been arranged properly. If nothing unexpected happens, the prince should start at midnight. Yesterday I had secretly met Chang's partner and told him that there must be great changes in the past few days. Chang's partner has sent someone to investigate the Eastern Palace. However, the prince is quite calm these days, and the spy in the Eastern Palace cannot know what the prince has discussed with those people. He cannot get the evidence in his hand. This matter is too serious. Chang's partner cannot tell whether he should report to his father. After all,... the prince's rebellion is a painful thing that hits the father's heart, and the government and the people will inevitably be shocked and affect it. If there is no real evidence, Chang's partner dare not report it rashly..."
Li Su thought for a while and said, "There is no way to get evidence. The prince will launch it in the end, but the prince is very talented and has a short plan. I dare to conclude that the army he can control is not enough to have tens of thousands of troops. For tens of thousands of defenders in Chang'an City, the prince's rebellious soldiers and horses will be easily wiped out, and will not cause too much damage to Tai Chi Palace and Chang'an City. So wait until he launches before reporting."
Li Tai shook his head and smiled bitterly: "What Brother Zizheng said is too contempt for the prince. The anti-army of less than 10,000 people is also an army that cannot be underestimated. When the father's father's Xuanwu Gate mutiny, he also attacked the crowd with fewer people. Prince Yin lost the opportunity when he was caught off guard, so the father could easily seize the throne... Brother Zizheng, the two armies fought each other, Wan Mo underestimated the word "preferential". If we know in advance that the prince would rebel, but there was no arrangement, if the prince of the Zhensect took advantage of the situation to attack Tai Chi Palace and controlled his father's life, then everything would be over."
Li Su smiled and said, "Don't worry, your highness, you'll leave this matter to me. You will definitely fail when the prince's arrow is on the string. Let the defenders in the city react first. There is no need to be much faster than the prince. Just one cent or one tiny, and the prince will be defeated."
Li Tai blinked: "What's your solution?"
"What do you think about your Highness when you find someone to hang him silently in front of the Tai Chi Palace and alarm the Yulin Guard?"
“…Who can take on this important task?”
"This person should not only have weight, but also have weight..."
“…………”
***************************************************************************
On August 27, the 17th year of Zhenguan, Prince Li Chengqian still lived in Qingyunguan outside the city and sent people to Taiji Palace to say that he had realized the truth and argued, and Li Shimin agreed.
On that day, in the left camp of the guard camp outside the eastern suburbs, Li Anyan, the general of the Central Army suddenly disappeared for no reason, and no one noticed the soldiers in the camp. Coincidentally, on the day Li Anyan disappeared, the prince left led the general of the guard to watch and the right night of the guard to see him for no reason. Like Li Anyan, the two disappeared for too short and did not attract the attention of the soldiers in the camp.
The autumn rain in Guanzhong has been raining for several days, and the rain is not heavy. It is as tangled as silk as a lover's slight anger, but it is a bit charming and affectionate. I still want to be sad.
It was already evening when Li Su walked out of the Wei Palace. The sky was gloomy and the raindrops gently hit their face, a little cold.
After walking out of the Wei Palace, Fang Laowu, who had already been waiting outside the door, stepped forward and opened the oil umbrella for Li Su.
Zheng Xiaolou and a group of men stood quietly in the open space outside the door, each holding a horse, watching Li Su.
Fang Laowu fell behind Li Su half his shoulder and whispered with an umbrella, "As the order of the marquis, the villain just went to Princess Dongyang's mansion and conveyed the marquis's instructions to His Highness the princess..."
Li Su kept walking and said lightly: "What did she say?"
"Your Highness the Princess seems to be unbelievable. He asked the villain many questions. He didn't know whether he should answer, so he had to say that he didn't know. Later, Your Highness the Princess finally believed it and immediately ordered someone to fight a ceremonial war, leave the princess's mansion, and enter the Tai Chi Palace. If the Chang'an incident is uneasy, Your Highness the Princess will not leave the palace..."
Li Su smiled and nodded with relief: "She has always listened to me and never let me worry. That's all. Since my family has settled down, I will no longer have any worries."
Fang Laowu hesitated for a moment and hesitated: "Marty, the prince...will he really rebell? The villain still can't believe it. If you are obedient, the prince will be his in the future. Sooner or later, this country will be his. At this time, he... took the wrong medicine to rebel against His Majesty?"
Li Su smiled and said, "He has been taking the wrong medicine for many years. Something seems impossible to do by others. He just thinks that he can succeed. If a guy with such strong self-confidence doesn't hit him hard once, how could he see the rainbow after going through the wind and rain?"
Blinking at Fang Laowu, Li Su smiled and said, "The prince plotted to usurp the country. Once it was launched, maybe we were in danger. Are you afraid of the fifth uncle?"
Fang Laowu suddenly thrust his chest and said fiercely: "I'm afraid of nothing!"
Then he smiled embarrassedly, and Fang Laowu said awkwardly: "Mr. Marquis, I am used to being vulgar. I don't have a single mouth. You, Lao Rao, this incident..."
Li Su laughed: "When a man in the army, he is not careful about the details, how can I care? Don't forget that I personally went to the killing formation back then, and I almost even told my life. I have any vulgar words with you guys who are fighting all day long?"
Fang Laowu laughed silly, then patted his chest and said boldly: "Mr. Please rest assured, the lives of the villain and many robes have been sold to the Marquis. I am willing to drive the Marquis in this life. Even if the villain fights his life, he will make sure that the Guardian will not hurt a single thread."
Li Su smiled and said, "It's not that serious. This time I only watch the show, at most I can play a trick. This kind of thing is too deeply involved to cause trouble for myself. If nothing unexpected happens, there should be no place for the fifth uncle and the brothers to use it this time."
As he said that, Li Su paused and said, "What I worry most is the safety of my father and wife. Before the lady left, she insisted on leaving all her brothers to me, but there is no danger here. Uncle Fifth, choose twenty people to go to my father and their hiding place, accompany my father and wife to protect them, and then send someone to tell Zheng Xiaolou that my father and wife's safety will ask him to cheer up and stop looking dead."
Fang Laowu nodded and responded. As he spoke, the two had already walked to the front of the horse. A group handed over the reins. Li Su turned over the horse. Fang Laowu asked, "Marty, where are you going next?"
A bitter smile appeared on Li Su's face and sighed: "Go to meet an old friend who makes me very troubled..."
…………
…………
The old friend who was worried about his surname was Hou and his name was Jun Ji.
To be precise, this old friend has hurt Li Su many times. Sometimes Li Su can't help but regret it. When Li Shimin exiled him, why did he insist on speaking for him? For him and even his own contributions were paid for his sins. He worked so hard for someone. To be honest, Li Su felt that he and his seniority should be reversed and asked him to call him uncle, otherwise he would be unbalanced.
Not long after returning to Chang'an, this troubled elder has become a hidden danger in Li Su's heart.
After returning to Chang'an, Hou Junji followed Li Shimin's will, closed the door and thought about his mistakes, and refused to leave any foreign guests.
So when Li Su led his troops to Hou's house, he was turned away without any surprise. Fortunately, Li Su was patient and, due to his seemingly gentle but actually irritable temper, he didn't get angry and beat the troops at Hou's house. This time, he was really good.
Keeping a smile, Li Su gently told the concierge to report it again, and this time he would report it with his name and surname. If Hou Junji didn't see him yet, Li Su had to turn from a distinguished guest to a villain who smashed the door.
The concierge saw the four words "The person who came is not good" engraved on Li Su's face, and obviously knew the meaning of Li Su to the Hou family. Not only did he not dare to get angry, but he reported it again as if he was in a hurry.
Not long after, the side door of the Hou family creaked open, and Hou Junji personally welcomed him. Before Li Su could salute, Hou Junji, who had a blue-black slut on his face, sighed heavily. The first sentence he said was like the resurrection of the ancient dragon, which made people sigh.
"You shouldn't have come..."
Li Sudun felt very familiar and replied without thinking: "But I'm already here..." (To be continued.)
