Chapter 40 The Holy Emperor of the Tang Dynasty!

"boom!"

The moment the sound sounded, a huge golden sword that was countless times more dazzling than the sun suddenly burst out from the depths of the void, cutting off time and space with just one blow, and then shattered the giant sword that Li Xuantu summoned. The dragon split into two in an instant.

ah!

Hearing a shrill scream, blood rained down, and in the midst of the giant dragon, a figure with long hair loosened and fell straight down from the sky.

At the same time as he fell, the armor on his body was shattered into countless fragments and scattered one after another.

boom!

Li Xuantu fell heavily to the ground, and the battle ended accordingly.

boom!

Seeing this scene, the whole palace erupted into appalling cheers. Gao Lishi, Wang Jiuling, Wang Haibin, Albus, and Zhangchou Jianqiong, Zhang Shougui and others who came after them all had sharp eyes and were extremely joyful.

"Successful, Your Highness really won!"

In this palace coup, the eldest prince Li Xuantu had an absolute advantage, but in the end, everyone turned defeat into victory and successfully won.

In the palace, Li Taiyi also heard the cheers of the landslide and tsunami, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

At the end of the battle, he successfully minimized the loss of the palace coup.

However, before Li Taiyi could enjoy a moment of joy, a strange feeling came from his heart.

"who?"

Li Taiyi turned his head suddenly, and at the same time his whole body exploded with energy, without thinking, he patted behind him.

boom!

In the darkness, a ghostly figure flew out without knowing when, and stabbed towards Li Taiyi with a sharp sword.

When the fists and swords intersected, the huge force actually shook Li Taiyi back several steps. At the same time, that ghostly figure also took advantage of the momentum to retreat.

"Li Chengyi!"

Seeing the figure behind him clearly, Li Taiyi's heart was shaken violently.

He never thought that it was the second prince Li Chengyi who secretly attacked him.

Only Li Taiyi and Li Xuantu will be fighting for the throne tonight.

As for Li Chengyi, he had already been excluded. From the moment of the chaos, he disappeared without a trace, almost without any sense of existence.

However, no one thought that not only did he not disappear, but he was always lurking aside, and judging from the blow just now, unlike the rumors, Li Chengyi actually hid a terrifying cultivation base.

"Big Brother, Third Younger Brother, why are you doing this? My father has already passed down an imperial edict, letting me inherit the great line, ordering the two of you to assist me wholeheartedly. It's a pity that the two of you actually fought for a false name."

Not far away, Li Chengyi smiled darkly, but did not continue to attack.

At this moment, Li Chengyi was completely different from any other time, as if he had cut off all the shackles on his body, revealing his original majestic face.

The aura on his body was extremely powerful, even in front of Li Taiyi, he did not lose his face.

Not only that, there are more than a dozen black-clothed masters beside him. These people have a feminine aura, and it seems that everyone has peerless cultivation.

With the abilities of Li Xuantu and Li Taiyi, they have never seen these people before.

But only for a moment, everyone's attention fell on Li Chengyi again.

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Hearing Li Chengyi's words, even Li Xuantu, who was seriously injured on the ground, couldn't help being emotional and shouted angrily, but just as he opened his mouth, he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.

"Brother, why do you need to be excited? Naturally, I have a basis for saying this."

Li Chengyi smiled, and Shi Shiran showed a few things in the eyes of the two:

"This is the jade seal of the Great Tang Dynasty, you don't know it? Also, this is the imperial edict drawn up by the father himself, stamped with the jade seal, in black and white, stating that I will inherit the throne, and all the ministers will assist you. Brother, third brother, you You don’t want to resist the decree, do you?”

"Nonsense—"

No matter how slow Li Xuantu's reaction was at this time, he would still be able to react. I'm afraid everything was planned by Li Chengyi tonight, including him and Li Taiyi.

He always thought that the jade seal was in the hands of Li Taiyi, but now it seems that Li Chengyi got the jade seal early, but he just kept it from him.

Obviously, he had plans long ago.

"You can't say that, whoever has the imperial father's imperial edict and the imperial jade seal is the emperor of the Tang Dynasty. In addition, I have summoned a group of ministers, including the grand master and grand master, and I have passed on to all the courtiers... , Ministers, you all come out!"

Before the voice fell, Li Chengyi turned his head and looked at another place.

In the eyes of everyone, the grand master and grand master, the six important officials, and all the officials in the court came out one after another.

"Grand master and master, I know that you have always liked eldest brother, but with your father's imperial order here, you should not violate it?"

Li Chengyi said lightly.

"Don't worry, Your Highness, it doesn't matter who we like. As long as it is indeed the first emperor's decree after inspection, His Highness must be the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. No one, including the First Prince and the Third Prince, must disobey."

The two said in a low voice.

In a word, all the people in the East Palace had ugly faces after hearing it.

"take it!"

Li Chengyi raised his palm and threw out the imperial edict in his hand. He kept an eye on it and still kept the Chuanguo Yuxi in his hands.

As long as Yuxi is here, he is not afraid of other people playing tricks.

"Third brother, don't you want to resist the decree?"

Li Chengyi looked at Li Taiyi who was at the side again, and laughed sinisterly.

In this fight for the throne, the two fought desperately, and in the end, he was the one who won the throne without a single soldier.

"Chengyi, do you really think you have won?"

Li Taiyi chuckled and finally spoke.

"If you want to inherit the throne, you have to have a real Jade Seal. You can't make a Jade Seal privately."

"What did you say?"

Li Chengyi's pupils shrank, and his face suddenly changed.

"Chengyi, you don't think I don't know anything about the tricks you did in private, do you?"

Li Taiyi turned his head, and those sharp eyes looked over like swords, which made Li Chengyi feel suffocated, and suddenly felt bad.

"Let me tell."

At this moment, an old voice came, the crowd parted, and a familiar figure was wearing a brocade robe with cloud patterns, under the protection of several masters of the forbidden army.

Eunuch Li!

Seeing that figure clearly, Li Chengyi trembled all over, as if he had seen a ghost.

How could it be him, didn't he put him in custody?

"Second prince, what did you do, do you want me to explain it clearly?"

"I do not know what you're talking about."

Li Chengyi said sternly.

"well!"

Eunuch Li sighed, shook his head, his eyes were full of disappointment.

"My lords, you are both veteran ministers from the court, and you are very familiar with the Jade Seal of the Chuanguo. Please open the imperial decree and look at the jade seal on it. There should be three cloud patterns in the lower right corner of the real Jade Seal of the Chuanguo. , there should only be two."

boom!

Hearing this voice, the grand master and grand master hadn't spoken yet, but Li Chengyi seemed to be struck by a thunderbolt, and even the Jade Seal of Chuanguo in his hand almost fell to the ground.

"Eunuch Li, how do you know? Yes, there are indeed only two jade seals on it."

The grand master and grand master even took a look, and both frowned. There are so many strange things about tonight.

"Grand master, grand master, eldest prince, third prince, listen to the edict!"

Eunuch Li reached into his sleeve with his right hand and took out a scroll of imperial edict:

"Second Prince, Emperor Tang did have an imperial decree, but it's not that volume."

Eunuch Li glanced at Li Chengyi, with deep meaning in his eyes.

Li Chengyi's heart felt cold, and he couldn't speak.

"Following heaven's fortune, the emperor ordered that the third prince Xuan, who is benevolent, righteous, courteous, and filial, will be specially passed on to the third prince Xuan, so that the grand master, grand master, and all important officials will assist you wholeheartedly, and honor him!"

"Impossible, impossible!"

After listening to the content of the imperial decree, Li Chengyi staggered, his expression was agitated, and he was almost crazy.

"You lied to me, you lied to me, my father died a long time ago, so there is no will."

"Second prince, don't you still know how to repent? Whether it's you, the first prince, or the third prince, His Majesty is clear about all of your actions, even you colluding with those monsters and using their power to poison Your Majesty, Your Majesty Know it all."

Eunuch Li shook his head.

As soon as these words came out, Li Chengyi's body trembled and his eyes widened suddenly, revealing a look of fear.

"How is it possible? Father even knows these things, so why does he still—"

But Eunuch Li didn't explain it.

"Your Majesty the third prince has not misunderstood you. After dawn, all the ministers will hold a coronation ceremony for you, and you will be enthroned as emperor."

Mr. Li is fair.

"No, only I am the emperor, kill them all!"

Li Chengyi's eyes were bloodshot, he pointed at Li Taiyi and everyone present, and said to the mysterious black-clothed people beside him.

Boom, without the slightest hesitation, the dozen or so men in black with powerful auras like mountains and seas immediately disappeared into the void like ghosts.

"Li Taiyi, I want you to die!"

Almost at the same time, Li Chengyi screamed fiercely and rushed out at the same time.

It would be fine if it was before, but now, whether it is Li Xuantu or Li Taiyi, they both consumed a lot of energy in the fierce battle before, and now they are no longer at their peak.

As long as they are all killed, who can stop him from becoming emperor?

"Chengyi, you are so disappointing. Since Father has already expected all your actions, do you think he will not leave any other countermeasures?"

Li Taiyi shook his head, and just before Li Chengyi made a move, he raised his hand violently, and then slammed into the ground, connecting to the underground of the palace, the huge three emperors circle with terrifying energy.

"boom!"

Just like a round of scorching sun exploding, boundless dazzling white light burst out, and that scorching light turned the entire capital into daylight.

"ah!"

Hearing a scream, more than a dozen black-clothed masters instantly turned into flying ash in the dazzling white light, and Li Chengyi, who seemed to be crazy, was also violently blown away.

Just one blow completely ended the palace turmoil.

...

In the twenty-fourth year of Emperor Tang, he passed away.

In the same year, the third prince Xuan succeeded to the throne and changed his year name to Shenlong, known as the Holy Emperor in history.

And that coup was also called the Shenlong coup.

...

In the twelve years of Shenlong, Datang defeated the Eastern and Western Turks.

...

In the fourteenth year of Shenlong, Datang defeated Wu Sizang and Dashi.

...

In the same year, Datang subdued Mengshe Zhao and defeated the Goguryeo Empire.

So far, the Tang Dynasty is prosperous and prosperous, ushering in an unprecedented prosperity.
