When Lu Zhongming arrived outside the side gate of the palace, the guards immediately took hold of their spears, but Lu Zhongming wiped them in front of him with one hand, and fell backwards.

At the same time, outside the Xuanwu Gate, Li Jiancheng learned that the incident of poisoned alcohol was exposed a few days ago, and hurried into the palace with Li Yuanji, wanting to meet his father before Li Yuan asked the crime.

Li Yuanji's face was pale and hostile, while Li Jiancheng's face was gloomy and silent, each leading a team of guards to Linhu Hall.However, Li Yuanji's horse stopped outside the Xuanwu gate.

"I'm sorry! Your Highness the Crown Prince!" Qin Qiong said loudly, "I don't want my life to be handed over!"

"Prince, be careful!"

Li Jiancheng turned his horse's head abruptly, met the rushing Yu Chigong, and said in astonishment: "Yuchi Gong, you..."

Li Jiancheng suddenly found out that Yu Chigong had returned, his shock was no small matter, he turned his horse's head and fled towards the Xuanwu gate, the guard rushed forward desperately, blocked Yu Chigong, but was picked up by Yuchigong.

"Wei Zheng—! Hurry up and report to Feng Li!" Li Jiancheng shouted.

Li Shimin's voice sounded, and he shouted: "Kill me!"

Li Jiancheng roared angrily: "Who dares to do anything! I am the prince! Put down your weapons immediately, and you will be freed from the crime of treason today. Otherwise, even if you kill me, you still dare to kill the king!"

Li Jiancheng rode his horse in front of the Xuanwu gate, but no one dared to go forward for a while, Li Shimin said angrily: "When you set up poisoned wine, did you ever think of your brotherhood for a moment!"

Li Shimin drew his longbow.

The left and right were shocked immediately, they all covered to block the crown prince, for a while the armies of both sides lined up on both sides, standing still, Yu Chigong held the long lance, his hands were full of sweat, looking for any opportunity to take advantage of.Li Shimin couldn't breathe and trembled, and pointed an arrow at Li Jiancheng.

"Fire the arrow." Li Jiancheng said coldly, "If you have the guts, shoot the arrow."

The moment Li Shimin was about to let go of the strings, a horse rushed forward, Li Yuanji and his horse, brandishing a long spear, crashed into Li Shimin's body, Li Jiancheng tuned his horse and left, Yu Chigong immediately shouted: "Kill the prince first!"

Yu Chigong led the army to attack, Li Jiancheng had only about [-] people under him, and they were defeated immediately. Li Jiancheng knew that Li Shimin was going to take his life today, so he couldn't love to fight no matter what, he had to find Li Yuan immediately, so that he could survive. Go to Linhu Hall.

Li Shimin's war horse was frightened, hissed and roared, and rushed into the woods, Li Yuanji immediately chased him in, Yu Chigong exchanged glances with Qin Qiong, leaving Qin Qiong to pursue Li Jiancheng, and rushed into the woods by himself.

Outside the forest, Qin Qiong led the army in hot pursuit. Li Jiancheng galloped wildly, bypassing the entire forest, and rushed to the Linhu Palace in the distance. Hundreds of people chased one person and ran away.

In the woods, Li Shimin was thrown off his horse, and as soon as he turned over, Li Yuanji galloped towards him.

Li Yuanji was on the horse, swung his longbow, strangled Li Shimin's neck, and dragged him behind the horse. It's flushed.

"Whoever makes a move again, I will kill—" Li Yuanji's voice stopped abruptly, and he was hit in the face by a flying object from a distance, and then an arrow shot through Li Yuanji's throat, galloping straight away. He threw Li Yuanji away, and before he died, a golden light appeared in Li Yuanji's eyes.

"It's okay." Lu Zhongming raised his hand and retracted the boomerang.

Li Shimin coughed violently and got up, Yu Chigong put away his long bow, and a gust of wind rushed in, but Lu Zhongming dodged behind the tree and left.

Li Jiancheng dragged hundreds of troops around the Xuanwu Gate and ran wildly. At this moment, the reinforcements finally arrived.

Xue Wanche roared angrily: "Follow me! Defend the prince!"

Xue Wanche led nearly a thousand people to rush out from the back of the Linhu Hall, and immediately dispersed Qin Qiong's guards. Qin Qiong was caught off guard and shouted: "Get in the formation, don't chase!"

Li Jiancheng turned his head panting, seeing that the rescuers finally arrived, he was overjoyed and rushed towards Linhu Palace without stopping, but at this moment, he felt a sudden danger.

Li Shimin drew his longbow, stood in the distance of the horse, and aimed at him. The tip of the arrow was moving in the direction of Li Jiancheng. Li Jiancheng suddenly bent down. At that moment, Li Shimin let go of the string!

The first arrow came spinning and hit Li Jiancheng's horse. Li Jiancheng kicked his legs, rolled over with his head in his arms, staggered up, and when he was about to hide behind the pillar, the second arrow suddenly hit his chest.

Li Jiancheng's pupils contracted violently, reflecting the arrow in his chest.

At this moment, Lu Zhongming, who was leaning against the other side of the wooden pillar, pinched a sword formula with his fingers and murmured the formula. The wooden stick in Li Jiancheng's chest glowed, and the arrow first shot through the stick and then hit Li Jiancheng's hand. chest.

Li Jiancheng spurted blood from his mouth and was nailed to a wooden pillar. Immediately afterwards, the eaves of the side hall of Linhu Hall collapsed and fell down.

A golden light flew into the distance and shot towards the East Palace.

In the distance, there was still a melee, the sound of fighting was raging, and a round of scorching sun was in the sky. Seeing that Li Jiancheng was dying, Lu Zhongming had to put him on the top of the Taiji Hall halfway, and took out the soul-fixing celestial bead to feed him, locking his soul .

Li Jiancheng twitched uncontrollably, and Lu Zhongming pressed his hand on his chest to stop the bleeding.

The alarm bell in the palace came from behind the Xuanwu Gate, and there were more and more guards.Li Jiancheng said: "Zhongming...I..."

"Don't talk." Lu Zhongming said: "Lie down, don't move."

Lu Zhongming walked along the eaves, jumped down, walked quickly through the corridor, went to the East Palace, untied the longbow behind his back, and held it in his hand.There was silence in the East Palace, no different from the old days. When Lu Zhongming stepped into the palace with his boots on and holding a longbow, the maidservants were startled.

"National teacher!" Li Chengdao, son of Li Jiancheng, ran out and said with a smile, "National teacher! Why are you back?"

Lu Zhongming looked down at Li Chengdao with complicated emotions.

"Call your mother, come out with your brothers." Lu Zhongming took a deep breath and ordered.

Li Chengdao touched Lu Zhongming's bowstring, looked up at him, and asked, "Is this the bow that General Yuchi gave you?"

"Well, yes." Lu Zhongming crossed his left hand and patted his head.

Li Chengdao said again: "My father also made one, exactly the same."

Lu Zhongming was silent, and said: "Go and call your mother, go."

The Crown Princess Zheng came out in formal attire. When she saw Lu Zhongming wearing a Taoist robe and holding a bow and arrow, she was startled and asked, "Master?"

"Come with me." Lu Zhongming said: "There is no time to explain, call out all your children."

Mrs. Zheng was startled and asked, "What happened? Last night Yuanji came and talked with Jiancheng all night..."

Lu Zhongming said: "He's fine after he's finished..."

While saying these two sentences, Li Chengdao brought his younger siblings out and gathered around Mrs. Zheng. Lu Zhongming smiled at him and said, "The national teacher will take you to play."

After finishing speaking, Lu Zhongming embraced Tai Chi with both hands, and his hands glowed with golden light. At the same time, the maidservant in the front yard screamed, and Lu Zhongming immediately put away his spells. The most worried scene finally came.

Li Shimin and Yuchi Gong rushed to the horse, and Lu Zhongming roared: "Li Shimin! What did you promise me!"

Li Shimin never expected that at this time Lu Zhongming was already in the East Palace, waiting for him to come over, he trembled unexpectedly, and reined in the reins.

Yuchi Gong rode his horse inside and said, "Zhongming, don't mind your own business."

"Stop for me." Lu Zhongming drew his long bow and said coldly, "I only have one arrow in this bow. If you charge up, I don't mind if you don't have an emperor in the Tang Dynasty."

Yuchi Gong: "..."

Li Shimin said: "Jingde, let's go, you shouldn't come."

Yuchi Gong said: "What do you want?"

Lu Zhongming said: "I will take them away and leave them alive."

Yu Chigong took a deep breath, obviously there was nothing he could do with Lu Zhongming, Lu Zhongming put down his bow, and said calmly: "Jiancheng's son is called Li Chengdao, because of this name, I can't let you kill him."

Yuchi Gong stopped.

Lu Zhongming put away his bow, looked at Li Shimin, cast the spell again, and said, "I'm sorry, Shimin, but I can't let you cut the grass and root out the roots, so as to avoid future troubles and be a good emperor in the future. There will be a period later."

As soon as the words fell, Lu Zhongming's body glowed with golden light, and with a buzzing sound, the sons and daughters of Mrs. Zheng and Li Jiancheng disappeared in golden light behind them.

"Shimin!" Qin Qiong arrived on horseback and shouted: "Xue Wanche has escaped! Your Majesty wants to see you!"

Li Shimin turned the horse's head and left, Yu Chigong was still standing outside the hall in front of the horse in a daze.

On that day, the Xuanwumen Incident subsided, and Yu Chigong was appointed General Protector of the Country.

The next day, Li Shimin issued a decree of pardon, exempting all princes and the rest of Qi Wang's party.

Li Yuan was furious when he learned what had happened, and called Lu Zhongming to inquire about what had happened, but he was nowhere to be seen. The national teacher fled and disappeared into the mountains and forests.Wei Zheng was thrown into prison.

Li Yuanji died, and all the descendants of the Duke of Qi disappeared.

A few days later, Li Yuan left a book, which was the "Tao Te Ching" annotated by Lu Zhongming himself, and there was a letter in the book:

Zhong Ming did not dare to forget the old promise, and wished the Tang Dynasty a splendid future forever.

Li Yuan let out a long sigh, and closed the gate of the Tai Chi Hall, and that year he changed Li Shimin to be the crown prince.

Over the years, Li Yuan abdicated, and Li Shimin ascended the throne as emperor, changing his reign name to Zhenguan.

In the first year of Zhenguan, Wei Zheng returned to obedience, but Lu Zhongming had not yet returned, so Yu Chigong resigned as a general and went back to seclusion.
