Just when Li Jiancheng squinted at the officials and had murderous intentions for Changsun Wuji, someone finally couldn't help but stood up and asked:"Your Highness, what are you doing this time?" What do you mean?"

The reason why Li Jiancheng remained silent was because he was waiting for others to ask him, so at this time he directly said:"My father ordered me to enter the palace last night. Because he was not feeling well, he passed the throne to me and talked with the Queen Mother. An spends his old age.

So, from now on, I am the new emperor of the Tang Dynasty." After

Li Jiancheng finished speaking, the eunuch on his right took out a volume of imperial edict. Li Jiancheng pointed to the imperial edict and said to the officials:"This is my father's edict. If you don’t believe the imperial edict, you can read it for yourself."

In the ears of hundreds of officials, Li Jiancheng’s words were by no means weaker than the impact of a bomb detonating in later generations. After hearing Li Jiancheng’s explanation, all officials It exploded instantly.

After all, Li Yuan was in the palace all day yesterday, and there was nothing unusual. However, in just one night, the emperor changed. Li Jiancheng, who had just become the crown prince, became the emperor less than a day later.

What's even more coincidental is that just last night, King Qin Li Shimin was assassinated on the street. There was no witness and everyone died.

I just don’t know if there is any connection between the death of King Qin and the abdication of the late emperor, or which event came first and which event came later.

But no matter how you say it, this matter is a bit strange no matter how you think about it, but the stupid people believe it is true and are about to give a big gift to Li Jiancheng immediately. The smart people guess the key but remain silent.

However, there were a few people among them who were not very smart and insisted on exposing the matter. They pointed at Li Jiancheng and cursed:"Li Jiancheng, you, a thief, dare to launch a mutiny and force His Majesty to abdicate!

From this point of view, King Qin His death must have been your doing. Aren't you afraid of retribution for doing such a heinous and unethical thing?

Don't think that if you do it perfectly, the world will be deceived by you. No official in the court will allow it. You, a disrespectful person like you, are the emperor!"

Li Jiancheng himself knew that there would be dissatisfaction with his sudden ascension to the throne, so he was already prepared for such things.

He looked carefully and found that the two people who jumped out to accuse him were all Li Shimin's confidants. He was overjoyed. He was just looking for someone to establish his authority when the two people bumped into the muzzle of the gun.

So he suppressed the excitement in his heart, showed an angry expression, and shouted to the two of them:"How dare you, as ministers of the Tang Dynasty, dare to speak to me like this. Come on, please treat these two unworthy ministers." The guys escaped from the Meridian Gate and beheaded them in public as a warning to others."

After he finished speaking, Commander Chen of the Yulin Army immediately grabbed the two men by their arms and dragged them out. Li Jiancheng used this killing blow, even if There were still people who objected, and they spoke out at the same time.

Li Jiancheng looked at the official who was so frightened that he fell silent, sighed, and then explained:"I know that you naturally don't believe in my sudden ascension to the throne. Some people even think that I was responsible for the king's death and that I forced the late emperor to abdicate. Yes.

In fact, have you ever thought about the fact that my father just made me the crown prince yesterday, and this throne belongs to me both morning and evening, why should I be in a hurry and force my father to abdicate yesterday?

And let’s not talk about the relationship between me and the King of Qin. Compatriots from the same mother and brother, we have a deep love for each other. Just say that this is a critical period of war between the Tang Dynasty and the Dragon Kingdom. How could I assassinate the King of Qin when the Tang Dynasty was employing people?

I only knew about the death of the King of Qin last night, and I feel deeply heartbroken, but I didn’t expect that the two people just ignored my feelings and even said that the death of King Qin was done by someone I sent. How can I not be angry?

In addition, what I can tell you is that the late emperor is It was because I heard about the death of King Qin that I became so anxious that I could not continue to handle the affairs of the government and pass the throne to me.

I have also sworn to the late emperor to let him rest in peace and recuperate. I will definitely find the murderer of King Qin as soon as possible and bring justice to King Qin. Revenge."

After Li Jiancheng said these"sincere feelings", many officials who were originally neutral or hesitant immediately believed his words and made up their minds to serve Li Jiancheng.

After hearing this, many of King Qin's confidants, who were originally very angry with him, became a little confused, not knowing whether what he said was true or false.

But Li Jiancheng did not stop there, but wanted to use Li Shimin's confidants' loyalty to Li Shimin to transfer their hatred to the Dragon Kingdom.

So he continued:"After I sent people to investigate overnight, it can be basically confirmed that the Dragon Emperor guessed that King Qin would lead troops to attack Yangzhou and support King Qi and King Zhao, so he sent people to assassinate him.

So I will definitely lead the assassination as soon as possible. The army goes south to destroy the Dragon Kingdom and kill the Dragon Emperor to avenge the King of Qin."

Li Jiancheng's words successfully diverted the attention of some people, of course, this did not include Changsun Wuji.

Originally, Changsun Wuji only had some doubts that Li Jiancheng, who went out with Li Shimin, killed him. However, after Li Jiancheng became angry and had the cronies of King Qin killed, he was convinced.

But now he was able to"find out" in such a short period of time that the person who assassinated Li Shimin was sent by the Dragon Emperor. This made Changsun Wuji almost 100% sure that the person who killed Li Shimin must be Li Jiancheng.

After all, when he learned that Li Shimin and Li Jiancheng went out together yesterday night, he asked Liang Shitai to find Li Shimin, and then went out himself.

But after a whole night of investigation, except for finding Li Shimin's body, there was no clue.

And if Li Jiancheng didn't know about it, he knew that Li Shimin's death must be later than his own, and it would be even more impossible to find out that someone sent by the Dragon Kingdom killed King Qin after such a long time.

However, Changsun Wuji was not an impulsive person. He knew that if he rashly stood up and accused Li Jiancheng at this time, he would most likely be silenced by Li Jiancheng just like the two people just now.

So he hid the matter in his heart and decided not to make it public for now. After secretly finding the evidence, he joined forces with Qin Qiong, Yuchi Gong and others to avenge the King of Qin and rescue Li Yuan.

After the dynasty was over, Changsun Wuji already had a premonition that Li Jiancheng would not let him go, so he quickly returned to his house and said to his sister:"Wugu, go dress up immediately, change your appearance, and leave Chang'an."

Changsun Wuji listened. After hearing what his brother said, he quickly asked:"Is it related to the death of King Qin?"

Changsun Wuji knew that his sister had a quick mind, so he naturally didn't want her to know too much, so he urged:"Don't worry about this, go quickly. It’s too late for a while."_
