Sui and Tang Dynasties: My Wife is the Eldest Grandson Wugou

They put down their weapons one after another and knelt on the ground to show their submission.

Soon, Yuwen Chengdu subdued Li Jiancheng's [-] troops, united with his own [-] elites, and after removing some casualties, he rushed into Yuyang City immediately, taking the remaining [-] troops into his pocket.

This time, Yuwen Chengdu's strength has grown a lot.

With a full 15 troops guarding Yuyang City, Yu Wencheng felt that he had never been so rich in his life.

After fully accepting Li Jiancheng's forces, Yuwen Chengdu did not rush to attack, but planned to wait and see what happened.

Because he had just come around from the Luan River, he didn't know the situation here, and if he attacked rashly, he would easily put himself in danger, so the best way now is to understand the situation first, and then make plans to attack.

He couldn't just rush out with a black eye. If he was flanked by the enemy, the forces he had finally recruited to surrender would be easily defeated.

Even if Yuwen Chengdu did nothing but nestled in Yuyang City, soldiers would still run away from time to time, and more than 3000 soldiers ran away overnight.

If Yuwen Chengdu hadn't sent people to guard the city gate in time, I'm afraid there would be more people running away.

At this time, Li Shimin was worried, because Li Yuan did not agree to make him the prince.

In Xuyuan City, Beiping County, Li Shimin jumped like a thunder on the city wall.

If Li Yuan didn't speak up and made him the crown prince, he wouldn't be able to gain the support of all the officials.

"This bad old man, what kind of iron blood is he playing with me at this time? What's so good about that bastard Li Jiancheng?"

Li Shimin paced back and forth angrily, cursing as he walked: "In terms of ability, Li Jiancheng is a fart? How is he better than me? In terms of prestige, I have so many generals under my command, so many ministers support me, he is better than me? In terms of brains, I contributed the most to this rebellion, without me, how could he be emperor for such a long time?"

The more Li Shimin talked, the angrier he became. In the end, he drew out his knife angrily, and slashed wildly at the city wall.

Except for not killing people, he cut down everything he could see.

Finally, after cutting the knife bluntly, he threw the knife on the ground out of breath.

At this moment, Xin Wenli ran over with a happy face.

"His Royal Highness King Qin, good news! Li Jiancheng is dead and was killed by Yuwen Chengdu!"

Xin Wenli came to Li Shimin's side and said excitedly.

"What did you say? My elder brother died? Or was he killed by Yu Wencheng?"

Li Shimin's expression was happy at first, but soon became gloomy: "What kind of good news is this? My elder brother died, are you so happy?"

Hearing Li Shimin's hypocritical words, Xin Wenli immediately realized that he shouldn't say that Li Jiancheng's death was a good thing in such a public place.

So he immediately knelt down and pleaded guilty: "His Royal Highness King Qin please make amends. It's a petty one who didn't think carefully. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was killed by that bastard Yuwen Chengdu. He is an enemy of our Great Tang. Please His Royal Highness King Qin make a decision!"

"Brother dies, and the crown prince of a country is gone. You must ask Father to establish a crown prince first, otherwise, the country will be ruined!"

Chapter 299 Li Yuan's Request

Afterwards, Li Shimin immediately rushed to Li Yuan with a smile on his face and false words of remembering Li Jiancheng.

"Father, my eldest brother is dead. My eldest brother was killed by that bastard in Yuwenchengdu. I want to avenge him. I would rather not be the crown prince. I must avenge my eldest brother!"

Li Shimin threw himself at Li Yuan's feet, weeping in tears, heartbroken, it really can be called the four words of eloquence and emotion, it makes those who hear it sad, and those who see it cry!

Hearing Li Shimin's words, Li Yuan couldn't help being shocked: "You, what are you talking about? Jian Jian is dead?"

A sadness welled up from the bottom of my heart.

"Yes, Father, I will lead my troops to fight to the death with that Yuwen Chengdu. Yuwen Chengdu is very skilled in martial arts. I am afraid that I will be defeated and killed if I go this time. But for the sake of my elder brother, I am willing to die. !"

After speaking, Li Shimin immediately stood up, resolutely preparing to rush out.

"return!"

Li Yuan immediately stopped him.

Li Jiancheng is dead, if there is no prince in Tang Dynasty, the country will be in chaos!

At that time, the courtiers under him should have an idea.

This country, which was finally won with great difficulty, is likely to be given away in the future.

Therefore, although he was very reluctant to let Li Shimin be the prince, he really had no choice now.

Although he admitted that Li Shimin was better than Li Jiancheng in all aspects, Li Yuan saw his cruelty and worried that he would become a tyrant in the future, so he made Li Jian the prince.

Li Shimin contributed a lot during this campaign, and his ideas were the most useful, but his violence during the march made Li Yuan afraid of him.

But now that Li Jiancheng is dead, he has no choice but to make Li Shimin the crown prince. Otherwise, the Li and Tang Dynasty can only be a flash in the pan in history and will not be successful.

Although Li Shimin was crying sadly, Li Yuan couldn't feel any sadness from him.

Afterwards, with a gloomy face, Li Yuan passed Li Shimin directly and walked towards the city lord's mansion in Xu Yuancheng without saying a word.

Here, it has been used as a temporary place for hundreds of officials to discuss their affairs.

After bringing Li Shimin here, Li Yuan ordered the eunuchs to gather the officials.

"Today, I announce that after Jian Jian's death, the crown prince will be replaced by the people of the world, and all ministers will respect him!"

Li Yuan announced very coldly, like a machine.

At this time, such important succession etiquettes are all simplified, such as sacrificing to the heaven and changing the altar, the Xuan ruler and changing clothes, and the three obediences of etiquette, all of which have been cancelled.

Li Yuan directly and simply announced a sentence, and directly issued an edict, confirming the change of the crown prince.
