Datang: Integrate three times the combat power of Lv Bu at the beginning

Li Chengqian nodded and said, "Relax where you are, and bring people here."

He knew that there must be some chaos in Chang'an City, otherwise his uncle would not have sent someone to deliver the letter in a hurry. This uncle is really his strong backing, and he never forgets to inform him.

"It's Your Highness." The messenger cupped his hands and retreated.

Soon...

The messenger came to him, "His Royal Highness, Mr. Zhao Guogong asked me to deliver this letter to you in person. Please read it carefully and make plans early."

"Okay." Li Chengqian said with a light smile, "Thank you for your hard work."

Then he took the letter from Changsun Wuji.

Changsun Chong said from the side: "Your Highness, it must be that those monsters in Chang'an City have fermented, and someone made a fuss about you, so father sent the news so anxiously."

Li Chengqian said lightly: "It's just a mob, nothing to worry about."

As a good young man in the 21st century, with the means of the aristocratic family, if others can't explain it, he can't explain it. It's nothing more than some tricks to bluff people.

Li Chengqian shook off the letter and looked at it, just as he thought, it was nothing more than some feudal superstitious tricks, such as yellow paper men bleeding, sculptures emerging from the ground and so on.

When Li Chengqian returned to Chang'an City and gave them an issue of "Approaching Science", these methods would be self-defeating.

After reading it, he shook his head in disdain, and passed the letter on.

After everyone watched it, they were all dumbfounded and amazed.

Cheng Yaojin looked at the messenger in astonishment and said: "This... this is too evil, have you seen all these things with your own eyes?"

"Small... small..." The man faltered, not daring to answer.

Li Chengqian said softly to him: "We are all our own people, but you just say it's okay, I won't blame you."

Hearing Li Chengqian's words, the sender felt at ease immediately.

"Yes, Your Royal Highness, the villain was walking home in the middle of the night a few days ago when he heard a faint female voice in the alley. The villain thought that someone had been killed, so he went in, but he didn't know that there was a mass of green The will-o'-the-wisp suddenly floated out, accompanied by a miserable cry, the villain was frightened, and fled back home in a hurry."

As he narrated, his voice was trembling, and he obviously still had lingering fears.

Listening to the messenger's narration, everyone except Li Chengqian frowned. First of all, this person would definitely not tell lies, and Li Daozong and Changsun Wuji couldn't find out why it was the case, which proved that the other party hadn't made perfect preparations. That is, these things are real.

When they thought of the end, their scalps were numb, and they were not afraid of the blood-stained battlefield, but this unimaginable thing really made them unacceptable.

Qin Shubao said in a deep voice: "His Royal Highness, it's better to plan this matter early. Since Zhao Guogong sent a letter, it proves that the difficulty of the matter has exceeded their control."

"Hahaha..." Li Chengqian laughed loudly: "Look at your frowning faces. We are triumphant masters. We have built great achievements for the Tang Dynasty. No one can do anything to me, let alone Don’t worry about what can be done to you, it’s not necessarily who will die.”

The few people around looked at Li Chengqian, who was calm and calm, and didn't want to say much. Anyway, they were used to it. No matter how difficult things were, with him, they could always solve them easily.

Immediately afterwards, Li Chengqian took out a piece of paper and began to dance around.

Not long after, he folded the note and handed it to the messenger, "You take this back to Duke Zhao, he will know what to do after reading the letter, I want these black hands behind the scenes to know what it means to show a big face , How eye-catching."

He hurriedly put the letter into his pocket, "Yes, the villain will take the letter back."

……

Chang'an City...

Cui Mansion...

"Master Patriarch, Li Chengqian's troops have already passed Liangzhou, and will arrive outside Chang'an City in a few days." Cui Yongqi, the servant of the Ministry of Rites, flattered Cui Zhao.

"Haha, okay..." Cui Zhao stroked his goatee, "We have set up a game for so long, and we are finally going to see results. It seems that only I, Cui Zhao, can deal with Li Chengqian's enmity with the five surnames and Qiwang. Reported."

"By the way, have you found all the people?"

Cui Yongqi said confidently: "Don't worry, Patriarch, whether it's an official or a commoner, whether it's a victim or a monk who redeemed, my nephew has already taken care of it. I just wait for Li Chengqian to return to the city of Chang'an. This time I will let Li Shimin stay in the city." Then he abolished his crown prince position."

Cui Zhao smiled and said: "Okay, very good, if this matter is done well, then the wealthy family will fall to my Cui family after all, and then I will see what Li Shimin will use to fight us."

"Lord patriarch, my patriarch..." Cui Yongqi hit the railway while it was hot.

For this matter, he has been running around all day long, not entirely for the purpose of bringing down Li Chengqian, the most important thing is his own path to promotion.

Cui Zhao said: "Don't worry, if this matter is done, I will make an exception and promote you as the elder of the Cui clan."

Cui Yongqi excitedly said: "Hey, that nephew thanked the patriarch in advance."

……

Chang'an City...

palace...

At this moment, Li Shimin was not idle either, the imperial study room was brightly lit.

Wei Zheng, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Changsun Wuji, and Li Jing sat around Li Shimin.

Li Chengqian's external war has ended, but the internal strife has just begun. Once Li Chengqian steps into Chang'an City, the strife permeated in darkness will break out at any moment.

Li Shimin said to Changsun Wuji: "Auxiliary machine, has the matter been passed on to Chengqian?"

Changsun Wuji cupped his hands and said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I sent someone there three days ago, and I think His Royal Highness has already received the news."

Li Shimin nodded slightly, "Well, you thought this matter thoroughly, but I was negligent."

Changsun Wuji said: "Your Majesty is too serious, worrying about state affairs all day long is already enough for you to worry about. We, the courtiers, can only do these small things for Your Majesty."

Li Shimin forced a smile, "Hehe, you eldest grandson Wuji, don't make fun of me. The reason why you care so much is not because Chengqian is your nephew."

Changsun Wuji apologized and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is right, you can never go wrong with a smile, you always have a sullen face, this matter can't be solved, right?"

Chapter 156 Outside Chang'an, the atmosphere is strange

Li Shimin smiled, and the tense atmosphere around him eased, and everyone's tense nerves also relaxed, and they looked at Changsun Wuji with admiration in their eyes.

At this critical moment, Li Shimin still needs to be dealt with by him.

Li Shimin continued: "Okay, let's talk about it later, the monster in Chang'an City has been happening for nearly two months, Li Daozong not only failed to find out, but the number of cases is getting more and more serious, what can you do?" .”

Changsun Wuji replied: "This matter is strange to say the least. Zheng and I have also investigated secretly for a long time, but when the critical moment came, either the clues were interrupted, the person involved died suddenly, or the investigator died unexpectedly. It stands to reason that the Chang'an City University There is nothing big or small that I don't know about. But this time, even I can't find out why."

"But the general direction is from the hands of Wu Xing Qiwang, that's right."

"Huh." Li Shimin lowered his eyes and said, "They don't know how long they have been preparing for this matter. The five surnames and Qi Wangming appear to be calm, but their hundreds of years of intertwined network are scattered, and your little manpower will definitely not be able to find out. .”

Li Jing said: "Otherwise, let His Royal Highness lead the white-robed army to rest in Wugong County, and let His Highness come back when things in Chang'an City ease up."

Wei Zheng said angrily: "What kind of bad idea did you come up with? His Royal Highness led the white-robed army to fight so many victories, wiped out the Eastern Turks, and expanded the territory for the Tang Dynasty. Such great achievements cannot be returned to Chang'an to receive rewards. This is not to chill the morale of the army. !"

Li Shimin said: "Xuan Cheng's words are reasonable. It's not that you don't understand Cheng Qian's temperament. When did he suffer such anger? Even if I allow him, it is impossible for him not to return to Beijing because of this matter."

Changsun Wuji continued: "That's right, His Royal Highness is the one who values ​​the reputation of the soldiers the most. His achievements can be disregarded, but if anyone makes the soldiers who have won the battle wronged, he will do his best."

They all understood Li Chengqian's temperament, soldiers and civilians were the two classes he cared about the most, no matter who moved their interests, he would definitely investigate to the end and punish them severely.

Until the dead of night, several people did not discuss the final result.

Three days later...

People from Chang'an City and surrounding villages and towns all gathered outside Chang'an City.

Li Shimin and all civil and military officials stood in line, and they watched from a distance.

But it was different from the last time Li Chengqian triumphantly returned from Liangzhou.

This time to greet the team, there was less joy, but more indifference.

The eyes of the people around were also slightly cold. Although they didn't want it in their hearts, the events of the past two months were all directed at Li Chengqian. The people really couldn't bear such fright.

Li Shimin frowned. For some reason, he hoped that Li Chengqian would not show up today and not go back to the city, "Chengqian, how should you solve this matter? The aristocratic father can resist for you, but this public opinion, father It's hard to shake."

"However, with his presence this time, Li Chengqian must not be able to raise the butcher's knife in his hand. After all, even he has not obtained conclusive evidence so far."

Although he was worried, Changsun Wuji who was not far away couldn't care about it anymore. He counted the supplies that Li Chengqian told him to buy over and over again, saying that they were used to expose these tricks in person.

Time passed by, Li Chengqian didn't show up, but the people around him gathered more and more, tens of thousands of people had gathered, and it was dark and dense, covering the sky and the sun.

Soon...

Li Chengqian led the army and walked slowly from a distance, still at the head of the horse, with a calm expression on his face.

"Hey, this is the first time I wish His Highness the Crown Prince would not show up."

"What should come will always come. Prince Jiren has his own destiny, and he will definitely be able to resolve this crisis."

"I hope, these abominable Jianghu Taoists don't know what kind of tricks they are using to make the people panic."

The ministers standing on Li Chengqian's side whispered aside.

The army came towards Li Shimin, with Li Chengqian at the front and Qin Shubao and three beside him. Hou Junji had completely disappeared in the long river of history.

Contrary to what everyone thought, the people on both sides of the road did not cheer for their triumph, but instead cast a gloomy look at Li Chengqian.

But Li Chengqian didn't care.

Li Chengqian got off his horse and cupped his hands and said, "Father, fortunately, I did not disgrace my life. The crisis in Yizhou has been resolved, and Gaochang has also been captured."

The three of Qin Shubao cupped their hands and said in unison: "Your Majesty, it's a good luck not to disgrace your life."

The triumphant team created a very strange atmosphere under the indifferent eyes of the surroundings.

At this moment, the joy of expanding the territory and defeating the Turks faded instead.

Li Shimin forced a smile and said: "It's good to come back, you have worked hard all the way, I have prepared a celebration banquet for you, let's go back to the city."

As he spoke, he grabbed Li Chengqian's hand, as if no one would embarrass my son.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Everyone responded in unison.

At this moment, the civil and military officials on Li Chengqian's side breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that this incident was over and nothing had happened.

It's just that before their feet took the second step, several veteran Taoists walked out from the crowd.

A senior Taoist leader with a bright spirit said: "His Royal Highness, please stop, you are not allowed to enter Chang'an City today!"

"It turned out...it turned out to be Daoist Qingfeng. In the past few days, Chang'an City is thanks to him. Many demons and ghosts have been eliminated by him..."

"That's right! Those evil spirits who were killing themselves under the old locust tree in the West Market were invited away by Taoist Master Qingfeng, otherwise something might have gone wrong..."

"That's right, these Taoist priests are all masters of Taoism, with them, they will surely wash away the prince's sins..."

Looking at the few old Taoist priests who appeared, the surrounding crowd cheered, as if they were the protagonists of today, and it was not Li Chengqian who greeted them today.

Li Chengqian looked at him with piercing eyes, "Why... I can't enter Chang'an City without your permission!"

Li Shimin was furious and said: "Who are you, you dare to make trouble in front of me, come here, let me detain them."

As soon as this remark came out, the surrounding people pleaded for mercy.

"Your Majesty, no, they were sent by the heavens to save Chang'an City."

"Yeah, Caomin begs His Majesty, don't embarrass them, they have no malicious intentions..."

"Your Majesty, please spare them..."

The officers and soldiers around hadn't moved yet, but the common people were moved.

Li Chengqian sneered in his heart, he was waiting for this moment, "Father, don't touch them, I want to see what tricks they can play."

Li Shimin said angrily: "Chengqian, you..."

Li Chengqian said to himself: "Father, don't worry, hundreds of thousands of Turkic ministers are not in your eyes. If you are scared by them and fled today, wouldn't it make the world laugh at you."

When Li Shimin heard this, he stopped talking.

What Li Chengqian said is indeed the truth. The majestic emperor and prince of the Tang Dynasty were frightened by a few old Taoists and ran back to Chang'an City.

Chapter 157 Abolish the prince, thank God

Li Chengqian looked at the bull-nosed old man, "Don't say that I won't give you a chance, today I will tell you why I can't enter Chang'an City in front of the people of Tang Dynasty."

In fact, Li Chengqian is not disgusted with Taoism. They are the native religions of China, and Taoism has had a profound impact on the politics, economy and culture of ancient my country.

People say: Taoist priests enter the world to help others in troubled times, and monks avoid the world to protect themselves;

In the prosperous age, Taoist priests lived in seclusion, and monks entered the world to collect money.

Of course, whether these rumors are true or not, Li Chengqian doesn't care, they exist for their own reason.

Moreover, there are good and bad people in Taoism and Buddhism, and it cannot be generalized because of the actions of a few people.

However, Li Chengqian will definitely clean up these scum in Taoism today, and it's hard to say whether they are real Taoists.
