Chapter 1182 A Huge Crisis
How could the Goguryeo envoy not be angry?
When Yuan Gaisuwen asked Hou Junji to reply to Li Tai, he sent him to Chang'an to prepare for peace negotiations with Tang Dynasty.
He drove slowly and hurriedly during the thousands of miles, and he didn't even dare to stop and rest even when it was snowing all over the sky.
Just to facilitate this peace negotiation.
By the way, enough benefits can be obtained from this negotiation.
If he could help Goguryeo get a lot of benefits from the Tang Dynasty, would Yeon Gaesumun treat him badly after returning?
But what's going on now?
He had just arrived in Chang'an, and the Tang State sent someone to inform him the next day that the peace negotiation was abandoned?
Isn’t this treating Goguryeo like monkeys?
If he goes back like this, not to mention the benefits promised by Yeon Gaesowen before, even his own life may not be saved.
The Goguryeo envoy was very angry, and his eyes were fixedly waiting for the official of Honglu Temple in front of him.
What can Honglu Temple officials do?
Li Tai has now been arrested by Zhao Chen, and no trace has been found until now.
All the power of the court now fell into Kong Yingda's hands.
Kong Yingda asked him to come over and inform the Goguryeo envoy that the peace talks were abandoned. What could he, a mere Honglu Temple official, say?
"Your Majesty, envoy, something happened in our Tang Dynasty. His Royal Highness was captured by Zhao Chen."
"How can we negotiate peace with you, Goguryeo, if the prince is not here?"
"If the envoy feels that something is wrong, then please wait in Chang'an. Maybe we will be able to rescue His Highness the Crown Prince soon..."
"That's enough. Even if Li Tai is captured, you can't talk so freely to me, Goguryeo."
"If our commander knew about it, he would definitely send his troops south to massacre your Tang state, Chang'an." The Goguryeo envoy coldly interrupted the Honglu Temple officials.
But this is of no use.
It was obvious that the officials of the Tang Dynasty had made up their minds not to negotiate peace with them.
No matter how many threats you say, it won't make any sense.
Sure enough, the officials of Honglu Temple were smiling.
She bowed her hands with him and turned around to leave.
He didn't care at all about the gloomy look on the Goguryeo envoy's face.
The Goguryeo envoy punched the table hard.
It was difficult for him to understand that a dignified prince of a country could be caught by an ordinary person.
And for so long, there is no news at all.
It's just that he is angry. The most important thing for him now is to convey the news here to Yeon Gaesumun.
…
"Father, good news, sir succeeded!"
Wei Shuyu ran back to his yard with a happy face and saw his father Wei Zheng standing in the yard admiring the snow.
Wei Zheng turned around and looked at Wei Shuyu with joy in his eyes.
"You said Mr. Zhao, was it successful?" Wei Zheng spoke slowly, but he couldn't restrain his inner excitement in his voice.
Wei Zheng knew very well that Chang'an City was already in Li Tai's hands.
No one from the officials, the army, or the people dared to go against Li Tai's will.
If he is not careful, Li Tai's butcher knife will come to his head.
This puts everyone in Chang'an City in danger.
But Li Tai is not that easy to deal with. He is always protected by Qianniu Guards.
Those people are all elites in the army, how can they be so easy to deal with.
When Zhao Chen said he was going to deal with Li Tai, Wei Zheng was extremely worried.
But he didn't dare to tell anyone.
The emperor is not in Chang'an, and Zhao Chen is their only hope.
If even Zhao Chen is defeated by Li Tai, who in the world can still defeat Li Tai?
Fortunately, Zhao Chen did not disappoint him.
Li Tai was captured by him.
"Successful. Mr. led his men to fight dozens of Qianniu Guards on the streets of Pingkangfang, and led troops to support Kong Yingda.
Before arriving, Li Tai was successfully robbed. "
"And the queens of the Zhao Mansion were also successfully rescued by Cheng Chumo and the others."
"Father, today is a great victory!" Wei Shuyu looked very happy, and the long-standing depression in his heart due to Li Tai's shock suddenly disappeared at this moment.
At this moment, Wei Shuyu thought of Zhao Chen returning to the court and admitting his identity in front of all the officials. .??.??
After that, the emperor who was far away in Cangzhou sent an edict to make Zhao Chen the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty.
From then on, even Zhao Chen became the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, and they didn't have to live in fear.
"Huh!" Wei Zheng looked at the snow that had not yet melted on the plum branches in front of him, and let out a heavy breath.
"Father, what's wrong? Why aren't you as happy as the child thinks?"
"Sir, you will be crown prince soon, and then the whole of Chang'an will be at peace!"
"This is good news worthy of universal celebration!" Wei Shuyu said with a smile.
He felt a little strange when he saw Wei Zheng suddenly frowning.
Hearing what his son said, Wei Zheng smiled bitterly and shook his head.
If only everything was as simple as Wei Shuyu thought.
"Even if Li Tai is caught, where is Kong Yingda?"
"And the generals of the Nanya guards who were promoted by Kong Yingda after he took refuge with Li Tai?"
"They are still doing well and still hold great power in the military." Wei Zheng frowned and said slowly.
Wei Shuyu was stunned for a moment, and then his expression changed drastically.
He understood what his father had just said.
Li Tai was arrested, but Kong Yingda was still there, and the generals promoted by Kong Yingda were still there.
Will they do nothing and wait for Zhao Chen to deal with them?
Absolutely impossible!
Zhao Chen and Kong Yingda did not have a simple conflict. Zhao Chen clashed with Kong Yingda several times, barely even having a direct sword fight.
This time Zhao Chen returned
Come on, I won’t let Kong Yingda go no matter what.
Between Zhao Chen and Kong Yingda, there must be only one.
They could think of this, how could Kong Yingda not know?
I am afraid that when he knew that Li Tai was intercepted by Zhao Chen, Kong Yingda had already prepared his backup plan.
"Father, then let's..."
"Master, something happened. A group of soldiers suddenly came outside and said that they would invite the master to stay in the imperial city." Before Wei Shuyu could finish speaking, the servant ran in with panic on his face.
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a school captain leading a group of soldiers, fully armed and expressionless, walking towards them.
"Wei Zheng, there is an order from the Central Secretary, asking your family to live in the imperial city." The captain said coldly.
He waved to the soldiers behind him, and a group of soldiers surrounded them.
Wei Shuyu immediately changed his expression and stood in front of his father.
But he was kicked to the ground by a soldier.
"Take them away!" the captain shouted coldly, and the soldiers took the two of them away.
Also taken away was Wei Zheng's wife, Lu.
…
Soon, the people of Chang'an discovered that the prince Li Tai had been captured by Zhao Chen.
In addition to a large number of soldiers in Chang'an City, they were searching for Li Tai's whereabouts.
More soldiers went to the residences of Chang'an officials and brought these officials and their families into the imperial city.
Afterwards, Kong Yingda sent someone to spread the news, claiming that he wanted to prevent Zhao Chen from attacking these officials.
But in fact, everyone knows that Kong Yingda wants to use the family members of these officials as his talismans.
In order to prevent officials from daring to communicate with Zhao Chen privately.
Chang'an City was in a state of panic for a while, and people were afraid to go out.
People coming and going on the street are all soldiers in the army.
The city gates everywhere are only for entry but not for exit.
The whole of Chang'an is in a huge crisis.
