Datang: Just been appointed as the crown prince, the counterattack system is here

Chapter 53: Crazy Changsun Anye! [Seeking follow-up reading]

I control my own life!

Why is this sentence regarded as a guiding principle by Changsun Anye?
The reason is that Changsun Anye felt too aggrieved!
He was obviously the eldest son of the Changsun family, but ended up being a illegitimate child of the Changsun family's side branch.

In the traditional concept of distinguishing between legitimate and illegitimate children in ancient times, this was tantamount to removing one's name from the family genealogy.

You should know that Changsun Anye's mother was his father Changsun Sheng's first wife.

What is a "first wife"? When a man gets married, he cuts a lock of his hair and ties it together with his new wife's hair.

This is what is called the legal wife.

After the death of the first wife, the woman who is married can only be called the second wife, not the first wife.

Although the wife of the second wife is also the principal wife, her status cannot be compared with that of the first wife.

Therefore, Changsun Anye's status as the eldest son remains unshakable.

Empress Changsun and Changsun Wuji were born to Changsun Sheng's second wife, Gao.

Perhaps because he lost his mother at a young age and was favored by his father, Changsun Anye was very unfriendly to Gao and her two children.

Even after Changsun Sheng's death, as soon as he inherited the family business, he drove Gao and her son out of the Changsun family.

However, Changsun Anye never dreamed that his younger brothers and sisters, whom he had driven out of the house, would actually climb up the Li family's ladder, leap over the dragon gate, and become the people he looked up to.

The huge gap in status made him feel jealous.

But that’s nothing.

What really led him to the path of rebellion.

It was still a reward from Li Shimin.

Originally, with Zhangsun Wuji's merits, he was more than worthy of being named Duke of Qi.

However, Li Shimin bestowed the title of Duke of Qi on Changsun Sheng, and Changsun Wuji inherited Changsun Sheng's title.

what is this?
This established Zhangsun Wuji's status as the head of the clan!
Because only the eldest son can inherit the title.

Then what about the original eldest son, Changsun Anye?
Therefore, his resentment towards Empress Changsun and Zhangsun Wuji, and even towards Li Shimin, was deep.

At this moment, he summed up the experience of Li Shimin launching the Xuanwu Gate Incident and used the powerful deterrent power of fire thunder to control the entire court, just like Li Shimin used the heads of Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji to control Li Yuan and the situation.

He has mastered the core means of the Xuanwu Gate Incident.

However, seeing that Li Shimin and his ministers were silent, Changsun Anye knew that the longer the time dragged on, the more disadvantageous it would be for them, so he decisively dealt a heavy blow to Li Shimin and his ministers.

He just gave Li Xiaochang a calm look.

Li Xiaochang was stunned for a moment, then reacted instantly and nodded secretly.

When he saw the heads of Yuan Hongshan and Liu Deyu, he thought he was about to die, but he did not expect that Changsun Anye would turn the tide with his own strength.

Now, he had been completely brainwashed by Changsun Anye's words and no longer felt the panic he had felt before. He immediately understood Changsun Anye's expression and walked straight towards the black box.

Then, he took out a fire bomb jar, lit it without saying a word, and rolled it towards Fang Xuanling and the group of Li Shimin's ministers.

"Danger!"

"Run!"

Qin Qiong roared when he saw this.

Fang Xuanling and others had been prepared for this, so the moment the fire bomb was thrown, they scattered in a hurry.

"Boom!"

A shocking explosion swept through the entire hall.

The huge noise made the ministers feel like they were struck by lightning.

The pervasive black smoke caused the ministers to cough repeatedly.

The broken tiles caused many officials who had not yet had time to escape to be killed or injured.

Shock!

fear!

Hesitant!

Countless complicated emotions filled the entire hall!
Even Li Shimin couldn't help but twitch his eyelids.

Although the scene just now was very brief, the terrible thing he had felt finally happened as expected. He understood!

He finally understood!

Why were Liu Deyu, Yuan Hongshan and others able to defeat Qin Qiong and Chang He so quickly!

Because they also used this fire bomb!
"Now, those who didn't choose to agree still have one more chance. Don't blame me for not reminding you!"

Facing the terrified gazes of everyone in the hall, as well as a few angry curses and screams, Changsun Anye, holding a fire bomb, looked around again and said coldly: "Those who follow me will prosper, and those who oppose me will perish!"

"This"

All the ministers were stunned and looked at Li Shimin.

Those who had just chosen to approve the title of king and the old ministers of Wude stood up from their seats in excitement.

Stimulate!

It’s so exciting!
Hahaha!
Li Shimin!
I never thought you would have this day!

Just as the crowned kings and the veteran officials were overwhelmed with excitement, Li Shimin suppressed his shock, turned his head to look at Fang Xuanling and the others, and asked with concern, "Are you all okay?"

"Your Majesty, don't worry, we are fine."

Fang Xuanling's calves were trembling at this moment, and his voice was trembling when he answered Li Shimin, because he saw the miserable state of those people lying on the ground, it was really too miserable.

It was blown to pieces, without even a human form left.

Even the hard bluestone slab was blown into a deep hole.

If the black box was full of fire bombs, he couldn't imagine what the scene would be like after it exploded.

"call"

As if he could see Fang Xuanling's worry, Li Shimin couldn't help but take a deep breath.

An unprecedented sense of crisis spread in his heart.

He didn't even have this sense of crisis when he was fighting for power with Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji.

This shows how panicked he is right now.

However, no matter how panicked he was, he did not show the slightest bit of fear.

Because in his opinion, even if Changsun Anye controlled the Taiji Hall with the help of fire bombs, as long as Li Shimin wanted to escape from the Taiji Hall, no one could stop him.

But, can he escape?

He is now the emperor of the Tang Dynasty!
Not the original King of Qin!
If he escaped, even if he finally put down the rebellion of Changsun Anye and others, he and the civil and military officials in the court would probably become alienated.

At that time, his prestige as emperor will be severely hit.

So, no matter what, he would never choose to escape unless it was absolutely necessary.

Just as the atmosphere was becoming increasingly tense, a resounding female voice suddenly rang out from outside the hall: "An Ye! Do you really want to push our Changsun family into an abyss of no return?!"

Wow!
The whole place was in an uproar!

Everyone, including Li Shimin, looked outside the hall.

"Queen!"

"It's Empress Changsun!"

"She, why is she here?!"

Just as everyone was in a state of shock, Qin Qiong, who was standing outside the palace, hurried forward to stop them: "Queen, you can't do that! It's dangerous!"

"General Qin, stop!"

Empress Zhangsun looked at Qin Qiong with a disdainful look, her majesty fully revealed: "This is a family affair of our Zhangsun family, and it should be resolved by our family members!"

After saying this, he walked straight into the Tai Chi Hall with great dignity.

Li Chengqian, who was following behind her, took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention and sneaked up to Wushe.

"Eunuch, are you a real person?"

"what?"
