Li Jun rested in Lejiang Town for seven days. During these seven days, he was not idle either. He had been paying attention to the trends in Kyoto. I also knew that Emperor Yan Ping had sent people to set up a dragnet in the county near Kyoto, waiting for him to fall into the trap.
However, in the past few days, he received news that the prince was dispatching troops and generals, and he seemed to be plotting rebellion. When he first learned the news, Li Jun thought he had made a mistake. How could the prince suddenly rebel when he was in good condition? In the past six months, he had known that the prince was in a bad situation, because he was not much better either. I thought I had to wait until the prince ascended the throne to change all this, but I didn't expect that the prince would actually rebel.
Immediately afterwards, he received news that King Chen had made some changes in Jinyang. He killed the supervisors sent by Emperor Yan Ping and left Jinyang with soldiers and horses without imperial edict. It seems that he has also received the news and is preparing to go to Beijing. It is difficult to say whether he will kill the king or kill the king. It probably depends on the development of the situation.
But all this shows that something big will happen in Kyoto! Li Jun was concerned about his wife and children in Kyoto, so naturally he couldn't stay out of the matter.
A few days later, Li Jun sent people to contact the old troops in Crouching Ridge, and together with three thousand pro-troops, they dispersed near Kyoto, preparing to follow King Chen when he entered the capital.
"Your Majesty, the imperial troops and city defense troops guarding nearby counties and cities have all withdrawn to Kyoto."
Li Yan narrowed his eyes slightly. It seemed that Emperor Yan Ping had sensed that a storm was coming. Well, the purpose of sending troops back to Beijing is to replenish manpower. This also confirmed that Kyoto was indeed going to change, and it was not a deliberate illusion made by Emperor Yan Ping to trap him.
"Those people led by Chen Lang are also rushing to Kyoto. It seems that things are really going to change. Prince, who should we help?"
Who should we help? Li Jun thought about it carefully and said, "My father is old, and it is only natural for the prince to ascend the throne."
Qin Yao asked hesitantly: "Aren't you going to help King Chen?"
p>
Both King Chen and Li Han are the descendants of the queen, and they are from the same mother. Why should they help their biological brothers at such a critical moment, right?
Li Han thought for a while and then said: "That makes sense."
"Then you want to help King Chen?"
If Li Han If you want to help King Chen, the final winner must be King Chen.
"I don't know."
Li Jun was very confused. If the prince wanted to ascend the throne legitimately, he would definitely not stop him. The prince wanted to kill the king and usurp the throne, but this was also for his own sake. Paul, and they can also get rid of Emperor Yan Ping, which is a good thing. But the current situation is obviously that his younger brother is competing for the throne with his older brother, and he is caught in the middle, in a dilemma. The battle for the throne has always been bloody. He didn't want anything to happen to his younger brother, nor did he want his older brother to be killed, which was very contradictory, but there was only one person who could take this position.
As for Emperor Yan Ping, Li Han thought: No matter which of their brothers is the final winner, Emperor Yan Ping must not be able to continue to be a monster, otherwise they may really be twelve.Prince Li Hao served as a stepping stone.
"Tell me about their bad qualities."
"Huh?"

"Speak quickly!"
Qin Yao racked his brains and said, "Didn't the Crown Prince plan to kill you before? You have been trapped in the palace for more than a year. Both hands and feet are broken, this is a deep hatred!"
Li Jun nodded and said: "Well said, I am already angry."
"And King Chen, this. The prince was also used by King Chen to attack you. To be honest, King Chen is the worst. He is obviously your brother, but he actually did this murder behind your back! ”
“Damn it!”
p>Li Jun felt that he was very angry now, so Qin Yu asked: "Then, my lord, have you decided what to do?"
Li Jun curled his lips and said, "No." < /p>
Qin Yao gave a new idea and said: "Your Majesty, how about you go up by yourself?"
"Go by yourself?"
Qin Yao nodded fiercely. , Yes, Li Han is also the son of Emperor Yan Ping, and he is also qualified to inherit the throne. Moreover, he controls the three armies, doesn't he have a greater advantage than the prince and King Chen?
"Where are we going? Just stay here, I'm not bothered enough."
Li Jun always laughed at the prince's indecisiveness, but at this time, he finally realized the prince's indecisiveness. A feeling of dilemma.
After the battle in Jinyang, Li Hao did not return to Beijing with Li Hao, but stayed in Jinyang to continue to win over the army. This was also the intention of Emperor Yan Ping. Emperor Yan Ping knew that anyone else would inevitably die like Cheng Min in the end. If he wanted to disintegrate Li Jun's prestige in the Huben Army, he could only choose to find someone to transition first, and Li Wei was the best candidate.
Li Wei is the younger brother of Li Long’s mother. Five years ago, Li Wei was instigated by a thoughtful person and planned to have the prince and Li Long kill each other so that he could benefit from it. This plan ended up being Emperor Yan Ping found out about it, but he did not make it public. Instead, he only told the truth to the prince. The purpose was that the matter was done, and the prince had to confront King Chen directly to restrain each other. Then Emperor Yan Ping's position would be stable. This This is the way of imperial checks and balances. After Li Jun recovered, he "ranged into the Jiaofang Palace" without harming Li Wei. This made Emperor Yan Ping silently make a note. After all, Li Jun still had some brotherhood for Li Wei, which was just right. Used by him.
Sure enough, when Zhao Yu led his troops to invade Jinyang, he hesitated and let Li Han go to the front line. The purpose was to see whether his plan was feasible. Otherwise, if Li Han also If the purpose of disintegrating Li Han's prestige cannot be achieved, then there is no need for him to give this opportunity to Li Wei, because there will be no big change in the result if it is handed over to the Cheng family or Li Wei. Instead, it is better to give it to the Cheng family directly. , consolidate Cheng Xueqi's power and let them compete in the ring, so that he can sit back and relax.
During Li Gao’s year in Jinyang, thanks to Li Jun’s care, no one in the Huben Army dared to cause trouble for him. Even when he dealt with Zhao Yu before, Li Jun gave him enough face. , others dare not look down upon him. This allowed Li Wei to quickly open up the situation in the Huben Army. Except for a suppressing army led by Le Weisheng and Fuliang each, most of the other two fell under Li Wei's control. This was also the reason why Li Wei dared to kill the supervisors and went to Beijing without an imperial edict.
When the news came from the queen, Li Wei was shocked, and then became ecstatic. He knew that he had endured it for so many years and finally had the opportunity to compete with the prince. He is the successor's son and the son of the current lord of the central palace. Why should he be ranked below the legitimate son of Empress Yuan? This throne should belong to him.
Li Wei has always been cautious and always felt that he was better than his brothers. However, the Queen always taught him to be low-key, which made him a little unhappy. He had been waiting for an opportunity to prove that he was the one who wanted to be low-key. Better than his brothers.
