Chapter 32 Life and Death

Li Longji did not come out, probably because he was afraid that he would be killed by Xue Chongxun. Now this situation is destined; probably because he has a self-esteem, after all, it would be a bit of a loss to come out and see people by himself.

So there was nothing to say, and Yin Ci's cavalry launched an attack step by step. The remaining soldiers guarding the manor were killed and the captured. Soon the place was disarmed.

The troops rushed in and searched everywhere, arrested everyone inside, and then found Li Longji's place. The soldiers were just guarding the door and did not enter rashly. They had to wait for Xue Chongxun to give an order in person...

It's a dead end, but isn't it obvious that it comes from blood?

Xue Chongxun looked up at the snowflakes fluttering in the air and said: Well, it's my cousin after all, I'm my cousin. Go in and hear what his last words he has.

After he said that, he handed the blood-carved knife in his hand and the removed scabbard to the slave next to him. The knife is easily rusted if it is stained with blood. The slave needs to wash it and apply oil. Xue Chongxun will do these things himself.

He strode straight towards the door, with iron-armored soldiers standing on both sides. This ordinary villa became like a military aircraft's important ground for a moment, five steps, one stand, ten steps, and one whistle.

The iron shoes made the snow on the ground creaking. As soon as Xue Chongxun walked into the yard, a sudden gust of wind blew the snow on the trees down. The sky was white, which made people feel an illusion in an instant, as if it was not winter at this time, but in late spring, there were white petals flying down.

Saburo was inside, there was no one else.A general bowed to report the report at the door.

There is not even a follower around you?Xue Chongxun asked casually.

The general said: It's gone, he's the only one.

Xue Chongxun remembered that in history books, Li Longji made the country a mess in his later years. When he was desolate and lonely in his old age, he was at least a loyal eunuch Gao Lishi accompanied him...

He turned around slightly, and now the eunuch Gao Lishi has been killed by him outside.

He sighed softly and said: Send the order to prepare some things, poison, white silk, short blade, etc. By the way, you still need a coffin. Sanlang's body must be transported back to Chang'an for burial.No matter what he did, he would always offer tablets in the tomb of the royal family of Li Tang.

The general clasped his fists and said: Yes, let me tell you to do this.

Xue Chongxun nodded and opened the curtain with one hand, and habitually wanted to lift the hem of the robe with the other hand, but grabbed the cold iron sheet.

As soon as I walked in, I heard a hoarse voice saying: Dalang is here, I know you will come.

Xue Chongxun looked up in the voice and saw a man with disheveled hair and armor sitting on the couch in Zhengbei, with a wine pot and a few cups on the table in front of him.

Xue Chongxun was stunned because the man's long hair was gray, just like an old man's hair...

But I soon recognized this person as Li Longji. Although he and Li Longji did not meet often, his cousin could still recognize him at a glance.

At this moment, Xue Chongxun believed that the night of white hair rumored in the world was indeed true.

Haha... Li Longji suddenly shook his head and laughed, his hair was fluttering gently, reflecting his handsome face, like a crazy person who was not met with talent.

But the sadness between the eyebrows was so obvious that Xue Chongxun felt a little sad.

Yao remembers that a few years ago, I saw this prince in Chang'an. He was full of heroic eyebrows and a breathtaking gaze in his calm and sharp eyes.Now, where have those things gone?

To be honest, Li Longji is Xue Chongxun's old enemy, but Xue Chongxun thinks from the bottom of his heart that this person is awesome. He is a top-notch person in this era, regardless of appearance, temperament, or cultivation and insight...

A capable man and a powerful man, a talented man who once was arrogant and famous all over the world, had just ended up like this. Xue Chongxun suddenly felt sad and sad as if he was sympathetic. Spring and autumn came, and suddenly felt a little depressed, but that was it.

Looking back at the time when he was unscrupulous and evil things that were harming the will of heaven and the truth were done without moral integrity and shame. Now that this matter has finally come to the last step, Xue Chongxun didn't have much pride in his sense of accomplishment...

Li Longji is related to him. How much hatred does Li Longji have?

But the fact is that Xue Chongxun ruined their family and died. Now there is not even a single person left, only Li Dan is left to practice the so-called Tao in the Taoist temple with all his thoughts.

What exactly is all this for?

However, Xue Chongxun just felt a little sad and not much unhappiness.

Compared to experiencing the tragedy of one's own family being destroyed and seeing the tragedy of others being fucked is obviously a very pleasant thing.

Suddenly, Li Longji stopped laughing and shouted: "You still don't respect me when you see me?"

Xue Chongxun was stunned for a moment, then folded his fists and said, "Your Majesty will live forever."He had no expression on his face, no intention of mocking, nor did he smile.

But after saying that, Li Longji suddenly sneered: Is it ridiculous or sad?

Xue Chongxun said: Since Sanlang wants to hear, I have never been willing to discourage others' excitement... However, victory and defeat were difficult to predict two years ago, Sanlang almost ruled the world and controlled everything. I was also a little scared when I recall it; but this time it was not so thrilling. When you first started, you would not have a big chance of winning.

Li Longji didn't say anything, and after going crazy, he fell into silence.Xue Chongxun asked: What else do you have to say in my cousin? I'll listen carefully.

cousin?

Li Longji sneered and shook his head and said, thinking that there should be a lot of things to say, but suddenly he felt that there was nothing to say.What I think about the most now is the things below. I wonder if I can see my elder brother and second brother... It’s time for us five brothers to gather together.

Xue Chongxun listened silently.

Li Longji sighed, said nothing, reached out to pick up the wine pot, and poured a glass of wine into the cup.

Xue Chongxun immediately asked: Is there poison in the wine?

Li Longji nodded calmly: So I won’t invite you to drink.I wonder what was funny about this sentence, but a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

When he picked up the wine glass and slowly approached his mouth, Xue Chongxun couldn't help but say: That's it?

What else should I do?Li Longji raised his head and drank it all.

Xue Chongxun looked at his face silently, standing motionless, as if waiting for his toxic attack.

After a while, Li Longji reacted, his fists were only clenched, his face showed a look of pain, and a wisp of blood soaked out of the corner of his mouth.

He was about to die, Xue Chongxun lowered his head dejectedly.

At this moment, Li Longji suddenly said slowly: Should I die standing upright or live a life of silence while kneeling?

Xue Chongxun pondered for a moment, thinking about this sentence in confusion: Did he mean that he had realized the failure before he started a war?

The reason why we have to make a desperate bet is like dying vigorously?

Nearly 100,000 Tang troops fought for civil war in the south of the Yellow River, and their national strength was consumed greatly. His passionate and prosperous situation was quite luxurious.

Just as he was about to ask Li Longji if this meant, he found that he had been tilted on the couch and seemed to be dead.

Xue Chongxun stepped forward a few steps, slid his nose, unbuttoned his armor and pressed it on his chest for a while, and his heartbeat disappeared.

Come.Xue Chongxun turned around and shouted.

A general walked in and clasped his fists and said: What are the prince’s instructions?

When the coffin was ready, he washed his body and changed his clothes.Xue Chongxun thought about it and said, "Go and take the flag with the national name."

After a while, the general came in with a folded pennant.

Xue Chongxun took it and shook it open, and saw the word "Tang" on it.

He spread it and gently covered Li Longji's body, turned around and walked out.

When he walked out the door, he found that it was completely dark, so Xue Chongxun simply stayed in the village with Zhang Wulang and other subordinates for one night.

When I woke up the next morning, the war was almost over, and it was difficult to have another fight.

Xue Chongxun thought that after defeating, he wanted to slaughter the enemy in Luoyang and massacre Li Longji's party members to vent his anger. He didn't think it was really a win, and he suddenly felt that it was unnecessary.

He then ordered: Indiscriminate killing, and the criminals were escorted to Chang'an and handed over to the Ministry of Justice for their crimes; the criminals' deeds were found to be registered and filed with them, and the documents were sent to Dali Temple.

The generals began to assemble troops from all sides and prepared to set sail for Luoyang to restore the rule of the area occupied by the rebels.

While Xue Chongxun was waiting, he suddenly remembered a small matter, so he came to Yuwen Xiao and said: Ask someone to check if there is any of the captive officials and aides named Jiang Changqing.

Who is Jiang Changqing?

When Xue Chongxun sent Princess Jincheng to marry him, she ran away when she encountered trouble. As a result, when she ran to the territory of Langzhou, Longyou, she was unlucky and met this guy who was Li Longji's old party, so she plotted against Xue Chongxun and almost killed him.

Xue Chongxun believes that everything needs to be returned. You want to kill me. I will talk about benevolence, righteousness and morality to you?

Soon Yuwen Xiao reported that there was indeed such a person, and Xue Chongxun ordered: Find out the family status of this person, Zhang Wulang... I would rather let Yin Cigan help Duke Yuwen destroy them all!

Yuwen Xiao didn't ask much about the guy and Xue Chongxun what kind of grudges he had with him. He said without any pressure: Xue Lang, don't worry, it's a trivial matter to destroy several families in this chaotic situation. He was originally a gangster of Li Longji.

Xue Chongxun thought about it and said: Cui Ri used their family members to recruit soldiers from the local area and also participated in the rebellion.The Cui family and the Cui family were married to the Cui family, and all the male members were killed, so they could eliminate the trouble they would cause me in the future.

Sometimes killing people is so simple, in one sentence, the lives of hundreds of people.

Cui Riyong was born in a large Henan clan and had a wide range of connections and relatives. He killed all of them with one sentence, and except for slaves, even if he was a male with blood relationship, it was impossible for him to have hundreds of people.

Moreover, once the people below start to take action, if anyone has time to check one by one, most of the innocent people will be implicated and die in vain.

At this time, tens of thousands of troops had just passed the war and wanted to kill Li Longji's clan for one reason. There was no one to talk. Who dared to speak for the rebels? Could it be that you had any secret interactions with them before?
