As before, Li Jiancheng followed the main street of Jinyang under the escort of dozens of Changlin Army to the palace gate. For nearly half a year, Li Yuan had been in trouble, and internal and external affairs were managed by the crown prince Li Jiancheng. The power of the Tang Kingdom gradually concentrated in Li Jiancheng. During this period, he formed his own personal guards, the Changlin Army of about 3,000 people. The soldiers were all strong men selected from one thousand miles from each barracks in Hedong, and equipped with the best armor and equipment.

At this time, Li Jiancheng was in a good mood, and he rode his horse proudly. Recently, it was too smooth for Li Jiancheng. He thought that Li Shimin, who was stationed in Hebei, would not be willing to submit, but he had already made some bloody preparations. He secretly mobilized all armies from Hebei, eastern and northern Shanxi to mobilize and assemble in the direction of Hebei, but unexpectedly, a decree was issued to dispatch Li Shimin back.

Now that Li Shimin has returned to Jinyang, he is like fish on the chopping board, and the turtle in the jar is at his mercy. Of course, he will definitely not kill him, after all, he is a brother of his mother. He does not want to do this and does not want to leave behind the bad reputation of killing his brother. If it weren't for Li Shimin's overly ambitious and showing his fangs and claws to seize his position as prince everywhere, he wouldn't even want to deprive Li Shimin of his military power.

When Li Jiancheng was thinking about where to arrange Li Shimin, the group had already arrived at the gate of the palace. Li Jiancheng clamped his legs and more than a hundred people followed him into the palace palace. The guards in front of the gate did not stop him, and the rule that the armor was not allowed to be brought in was invalid for Li Jiancheng, because most of the imperial guards in the palace were played by his Changlin Army.

While Li Jiancheng was walking in the palace, he suddenly felt something was wrong. He slowed down his horse and carefully read his thoughts. Suddenly, he knew why he felt this way. The palace guards he encountered along the way were all born with eyes.

Although there were hundreds of people in Changlin's army who were sent to serve as guards at key positions, Li Jiancheng could not be known to everyone, and they would call them a name. However, when they met for a long time, everyone's face would always have an impression in their minds. Today, the distance between the palace gate and the front hall was more than a hundred battles, but they found that whether it was the gatekeeper or the two small groups of patrol guards he encountered on the road, their faces were strange. Moreover, when the patrol guards met his team, their expressions were strange.

Thinking of this, Li Jiancheng secretly thought: [I heard that Li Shimin also carried three thousand personal guard armor with him. Although this little force existed like a drop of water in Jinyang, where hundreds of thousands of soldiers were stationed around him, if Li Shimin was anxious and suddenly attacked, he would use these three thousand soldiers to suddenly attack...] Thinking of this, Li Jiancheng was already in a cold sweat and said to himself: "Be careful." Then he ordered: "Turn the horse's head and go home."

After saying that, he rode his horse and galloped outside the palace gate. At this time, a leisurely voice came: "Brother, where are you going?" Li Jiancheng turned his head and saw that it was his second brother Li Shimin, who was wearing armor and helmets, and even the horse was covered with thick leather armor. Moreover, he was surrounded by Yuchi Gong, a powerful general, and there were more than a hundred black armored iron guards behind him.

"Oh, it's my second brother. I came so early. Brother, I forgot to get something and want to rush back to the mansion to get it back." Li Jiancheng said with a disapproval expression.

"Brother, don't worry, please borrow an item first." Li Shimin continued to smile.

"What are you going to borrow?"

At this time, Li Shimin's expression suddenly changed and he shouted, "I will use the head on your neck!" After that, he bent his bow and arrows and shot Li Jiancheng. Li Jiancheng was ready to turn his head and the arrow flew past his cheek, but half of his ears were shot, and blood flowed out.

Li Jiancheng didn't care about his decency, endured the severe pain, and ran wildly. Dozens of Changlin Jiashu, behind him, cut off the rear of him, blocked Li Shimin and Yuchi Gong, and fought with hundreds of Xuanjia Iron Guards who rushed up. Li Shimin and Yuchi Gong did not entangle with them, rode their horses around the battlefield, and chased them closely behind Li Jiancheng. At this time, hundreds of Xuanjia soldiers emerged from all corners of the palace and attacked this side together.

When Li Jiancheng fled to the palace gate, he found that the palace gate had been stopped by a large number of black armored iron guards, so he had to turn his horse's head and flee west. There was nearly a thousand Changlin Army in this palace city, and there was a small military camp to the west of the palace city, which was used for the Changlin Imperial Guards in the palace to rest normally.

If you escape there, you can summon the Changlin army in the palace to counterattack. In addition, there is a western gate to the west of the palace city. He will ask his personal soldiers to go out from there and flee to his own palace to mobilize all the Changlin army to help. As long as you can withstand three hours, the Jinyang Tang army controlled by him will continue to come to support him.

Li Jiancheng was full of regret and hatred at this time. What he regretted was that he was blinded by family affection and was ruthless. He should have lost Li Shimin without hesitation yesterday, at least he should be prepared for it. What he hated was that Li Shimin had no ties at all and actually killed him. He said in his heart: "If I can escape this disaster, I will kill you all."

But he had no chance. He was facing more than a dozen Xuan armored troops and rushed towards him, and the crossbow in his hand released arrows at the same time. Li Jiancheng was immediately caught in seven or eight arrows, and he was unprepared, so he was not wearing armor. Seven or eight arrows shot more than a dozen holes on his body, and rolled under the horse with a thud.

Yuchi Gong had already galloped from behind, and cut off Li Jiancheng's head with a knife. Then he held his head and put his horse on his horse and shouted loudly: "The rebel Li Jiancheng is dead. Those who follow him can forgive his crimes." At this time, the ten or three of the Changlin Army had been killed. When the remaining soldiers saw that Li Jiancheng was dead, they had to kneel down and beg for surrender.

Outside the palace city, two thousand Xuanjia troops had already arrived at Li Jiancheng's prince's mansion as planned, surrounding the entire government office. The Changlin army in the mansion gathered urgently, closed the courtyard gate, and maintained a high alert, while sending people to contact Li Jiancheng urgently.

Just half an hour later, Yuchi Gong came to the mansion and asked the soldiers to raise a head with bamboo poles and shouted loudly to the mansion, claiming in the name of the King of Tang that Li Jiancheng was treasonous and wanted Changlin's army to surrender.

In the palace city, in the King of Tang's bedroom, Li Yuan's face turned red, his eyes bulged out, his feet were kicking around, and his hands tried hard to tear off the white silk that was siding around his neck. The white silk became tighter and tighter. Finally, his legs glared and left. Li Shimin then let go. This matter should not have been done by Li Shimin, but no one of his subordinates dared to kill Li Yuan. It was not because of the power of Li Yuan, but because he did not dare to kill the future King of Tang or even the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. Who knew whether Li Shimin would regret this in the future and kill himself to apologize to his father in the underworld. Li Shimin understood the difficulties of his subordinates, so he did it himself.
