Not far from Xuanwu Gate, in the dense forest, Li Shimin felt that the palm in his abdomen was much better. It was no longer as painful as before.
At this moment, his generals and strategists were all by his side, so he couldn't act like a girl, so he looked at Fang Xuanling with a straight face as if nothing had happened.
"Your Highness, General Hou is cleaning up the battlefield. The rebels have all been killed.”
Fang Xuanling had been following Li Shiming for a long time, so he naturally understood what Li Shiming meant.
"Yes, I understand."
Li Shi Min replied.
"Jing De, how are the casualties?"
"Your Highness, our army took the enemy by surprise and attacked their leader. The rebel army's resistance was weak, so we only lost three to four tenths of our guards.”
Yuchi Gong replied.
"Congratulations, Your Highness. Now that the traitors have all been killed, it is only a matter of time before Your Highness ascends to a high position. Your Majesty, please send someone to the palace to protect Your Majesty in case the rebels offend Your Majesty. In addition, Your Majesty needs to summon the Eastern Palace and the Qi King Residence to give up resistance.”
At this moment, Zhangsun Wuji stood out and suggested.
It was a lie to have someone protect Li Yuan, but it was true to have someone watch over Li Yuan to prevent any unexpected accidents. In addition, they needed an imperial edict from Li Yuan. This way, they could stand firm on the righteous side and ask the Eastern Palace and King Qi's Residence to give up resistance.
Now that Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji were dead, their masters had no subordinates. No matter how hard they fought, it was useless. In the current situation of the Great Tang, even if they dared to establish themselves as kings, they would not be able to stand firm.
Li Shimin understood this, and his thoughts coincided with his.
"Jing De, the person I feel most at ease with now is you. Take some men with you and make a trip. You must protect His Majesty well and avoid being attacked by the rebels. After I withdraw the Eastern Palace troops, I will go to see my father and report everything.”
Li Shi Min first praised Yuchi Gong and then ordered.
Yuchi Gong was a strict person, so he couldn't blame Li Shiming for taking him so seriously. After hearing Li Shiming's praise, Yuchi Gong's expression didn't change at all. He respectfully cupped his hands and said,"Yes." Then he turned around and led a group of soldiers to leave, heading towards the palace.
..................
"Your Highness, these are the heads of Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji.”
Lu Jian Xing said to Li Shi Min with two bloody heads in his hands.
However, there were still some... Tail?
"Ah! You bastard, stop right there!"
"Your Highness!"
"General Hou, why are you shouting here? What a disgrace!"
Li Shiming sternly said, indicating for Hou Junji to explain.
"This... Your Highness, I don't know where this person came from. He cut off Li Jiancheng's head. I couldn't stop him in time, so he chased after me.”
It turned out that Lu Jianxing had been ordered to bring Li Jiancheng's head over, but had been met by Hou Junji, who had been cleaning up the battlefield. Hou Junji had assumed that Lu Jianxing had come to steal credit, and Lu Jianxing had refused to listen to any explanation.
In the end, Lu Jianxing had no choice but to force his way in, and Hou Junji naturally refused. The two of them clashed, but Hou Junji was easily knocked down by Lu Jianxing and left safely with Li Jiancheng's head.
Hou Junji, who had suffered a loss in front of his subordinates, was naturally unwilling. Who was he?
He was a general under the command of the King of Qin, Li Shimin. Now, he had helped Li Shimin to kill Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji. Li Shimin's ascension to a high position was just around the corner. At that time, it would not be difficult for him to be conferred the title of Marquis and Minister. Now, he actually suffered a loss at the hands of an unknown person?
He didn't even bother to clean up the battlefield. He immediately reorganized his soldiers and prepared to " seek revenge ". If he couldn't defeat you alone, why couldn't he defeat you with his troops?
He hadn't expected to run into Li Shimin, so Hou Junji naturally couldn't tell him the truth. He vaguely explained the whole story, only saying that Lu Jianxing had cut off Li Jiancheng's head when he wasn't paying attention and had run away, and that he had come to pursue him as part of his duty.
Lu Jianxing pursed his lips and didn't retort. He didn't take Hou Junji seriously at all, and this scene caused Hou Junji to go crazy."This Lu Jianxing doesn't know about changes and is not good at socializing. Perhaps…"
"Alright, let's forget about this matter. I ordered this warrior to go and cut off my big brother's head. Junji doesn't know about this, so you can't be blamed if you don't know.”
Li Shiming suppressed Hou Junji's emotions and reprimanded him.
Li Shiming's actions had caused Hou Junji's opinion of Lu Jianxing to grow even stronger. He had been reprimanded and humiliated, but Li Shiming had comforted him so that Hou Junji had no reason to continue picking a fight.
Zhangsun Wuji, Gao Shilian, Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling, and the other civil and military officials of Li Shimin's group all looked at Lu Jianxing curiously.
Was this person Li Shi Min's backup plan? As Li Shiming's trusted aide, he had never heard of him before, and the fact that he had been able to take Li Jiancheng's head from Hou Junji's hands meant that this person was extraordinary. Everyone present knew what sort of person Hou Junji was.
In the end, Gao Shilian couldn't hold back his temper. He asked curiously,""Your Highness, who is this warrior?"
It wasn't just Gao Shilian. Everyone present, including Hou Junji, wanted to know, but only Gao Shilian and Zhangsun Wuji had the status to ask. One was Li Shimin's uncle, and the other was Li Shimin's beloved woman, Zhangsun Wugou's elder brother.
"This warrior is called Lu Jianxing. He is a guard that my old San Ke 'er took in a few years ago. My old third brother is mischievous, so I can only be at ease with this person protecting him. Today, it was the Guanyin maid who told my old third brother about us and sent this person to help. If it wasn't for this warrior coming in time, I would have already lost my life.”
Li Shi Min sighed.
However, his words seemed to put all the responsibility on himself. Those who didn't know would think that Lu Jianxing was sent to Li Ke as a bodyguard because Li Shimin was worried about Li Ke's safety.
It seemed that the rumors about Li Shimin's extravagance in history weren't groundless.
However, Li Shiming's words made the people of Li Shiming Group think a lot. They all bowed to Lu Jianxing. If it wasn't for Lu Jianxing, their efforts would have been in vain.
Although the battlefield had ended, Li Ke's battle with two people continued.。。。。。。Li Ge is really a "bloody battle"
Today's wind was not strong, but the green leaves were always blowing on Li Shimin's head.
[PS: As expected, everyone here is a big shot. I didn't even know that Empress Xiao also has royal blood.]
I was going to get the contract today, but the rain outside has never stopped. If I don't get the contract, will a big shot sail over to save me…
Today, it was still the same Buddhist style of begging for flowers and flowers. There should be five chapters.
