Some people asked, Li Shimin shot Li Jiancheng with an arrow, why did he cut off his head? Let's take a closer look at why.
Everyone knows that the reason why Tang Taizong Li Shimin was able to become emperor was because he killed his brother, the crown prince Li Jiancheng, at Xuanwu Gate. At the time of the Xuanwumen Incident, Li Shimin and his cronies, about nine people, had been ambushed near Xuanwumen early.
When they had done everything properly, they sent someone to falsely pass on the holy will and inform the crown prince Li Jiancheng, saying that the old emperor Li Yuan wanted to see him and had important matters to discuss. Li Jiancheng didn't think so much, although he had a private guard, but he didn't bring it. After all, it was in the palace, and he couldn't imagine that there would be an accident.
Therefore, in the end, he just called his brother Li Yuanji, the King of Qi, and went with him. Privately, the prince Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji had the best relationship, and it was understandable that the two of them went to see their father together. At that time, it was this decision that led to the death of the two men. At that time, they were riding on high-headed horses, and the two of them came to the xuanwu gate. They had sensed that something was strange, but they couldn't remember it for a moment when they were asked to say something was wrong.
At this critical moment, Li Shimin pulled out an arrow and shot at the crown prince Li Jiancheng. It should be known that Li Shimin, the King of Qin, is known for his good shooting, and those who are shot by him will not survive. After Li Jiancheng fell in response, he never got up again. That is to say, Li Shimin's arrow just hurt his key place. At this time, Li Yuanji was not dead, and when Li Yuanji saw this situation, he turned the horse's head and wanted to run. Li Shimin saw that the big thing was not good, and chased after the horse.
Probably too nervous, Li Shimin tripped over the dense branches and fell off his horse. Li Yuanji saw that Li Shimin had fallen, and he also jumped off his horse and walked towards Li Shimin. Because Li Yuanji's strength was much greater than Li Shimin's, at this time Li Yuanji was going to snatch Li Shimin's bow and arrow, and he wanted to strangle Li Shimin to death with an arrow. Just at the moment of this thousand gunshots, Wei Chi Jingde came to kill. It just so happened that Wei Chi Jingde was the person Li Yuanji was most afraid of, and Wei Chi Jingde came up with a knife and cut off Li Yuanji's head.
Because their fighting was too loud, they alarmed the guards around them. Among these guards was the guard of Prince Li Jiancheng. Prince Li Jiancheng's convoy rushed over, probably hundreds of people. You must know that at this time, Li Shimin's people in Xuanwu Gate are less than ten people. Ten against a few hundred, as if it could not be defeated anyway. Suddenly, the scene was in chaos.
Wei Chi Jingde's eyes were fast, and he quickly cut off the head of Prince Li Jiancheng. After Wei Chi Jingde got Li Jiancheng's head, he quickly climbed to the top of the city and shouted to the people below. You see, this is the head of your master Li Jiancheng. If you don't want to die, quickly lay down your weapons and run for your life.
Everyone looked at Wei Chi Jingde, the crown prince Li Jiancheng was indeed dead, and the bloody human head could still be fake. Because their leaders were all dead, at this time, Li Jiancheng's escort team naturally did not dare to participate in the war. So they fled in all directions. It was only then that Li Shimin retrieved a life. Therefore, in the change of Xuanwu Gate, Wei Chi Jingde was the first hero.
So since li jiancheng had already been killed, why did he have to cut off his head?
The biggest magic use was to shake the hearts of Li Jiancheng, Li Yuanji's men and horses, because of the change of Xuanwu Gate, Li Shimin only led a few cronies, while the people of the Prince's Mansion were arriving one after another, constantly rushing in, although Zhang Jin desperately closed the city gate and temporarily blocked the people and horses of the Prince's Mansion, but the soldiers of xuanwu Gate continued to fight for too long, and the Eastern Palace beat drums and shouted, preparing to attack the Qin King's Mansion, and the soldiers were very frightened. At this time, Wei Chigong was standing on the city tower carrying the heads of Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, and the people of the Eastern Palace and the Qi Palace, Ma Dun, lost their war heart and quickly broke up, and at this point, the coup d'état ended in the victory of Li Shimin, the King of Qin.
