Li Yunxiao stepped forward with heavy steps to help a few people up.
Tianmanxing's eyes were slightly lowered, as if he was about to fall asleep, and he murmured quietly: "Commander... one day... he is a bad person... this time, for the rest of his life... "
Li Yunxiao said in a low voice: "It's all my fault that I came too late. You won't die yet. You will live for a lifetime."
Li Yunxiao stretched out his hand to seal his acupuncture points and used silver needles to guide him, and then handed him over to the other delinquents to take care of him.
And while he was looking at the devastation and smoke, he stepped on the ground covered with blood-stained limbs, and slowly came to Li Zhen.
"Why?"
"Isn't Li Xian the emperor? Isn't she, Wu Meiniang, bad to the people? Are you having a hard time? It doesn't matter if she started the war, why is it you!?"
Facing Li Yunxiao's inquiry, Li Zhen was a little confused, but then she said firmly:
"Since the Imperial Master is here, why don't you call..."
Snapped!
Li Yunxiao slapped Li Zhen on the face and knocked her to the ground.
"Tell me! Did Li Xian ask you to raise troops? What else did he tell you!?"
Li Zhen turned her head, stared straight at Li Yunxiao and shouted: "Your Majesty is an emperor, noble and inviolable, how can you tolerate someone else in power!"
"Then have you ever thought that Li Xian deliberately gave these powers to Wu Meiniang! He just wanted to use Wu Meiniang's hand to get rid of the internal threats like you! Ah!?"
"Nonsense! As the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, you, Li Yunxiao, how can you help that witch?"
"Help her? I gave her warnings at every turn and finally changed her mind. I let you eat and drink and live well, but you made it difficult for me at every turn!"
"Tell me! Whose fault is this? Who has selfish motives?"
After hearing these words, Li Zhen's eyes dodge a little. He felt guilty, or he knew that his son was guilty.
Li Yunxiao spread his arms and looked around and shouted: "And you! Can't you eat? Are you not doing well?"
"You are all bastards! You know that this war is wrong, but you fight to the death with your own people in the name of loyalty, filial piety and righteousness. What is the difference between you and that ambitious person!?"
"Look! Look at these corpses on the ground! Whose soldiers are they? Aren't they from the Tang Dynasty? Aren't you soldiers from the Tang Dynasty!?"
Thousands of people nearby lowered their heads, and every one of the troops brought by Li Zhen dropped their weapons.
They had long known that it was wrong to follow them, but Li Zhen treated them well and came here out of loyalty.
Now that all this loyalty has turned into ambition, what are they still insisting on?
Li Zhen looked at this scene, took a deep breath and stood up.
He knew he had lost today, but he didn't hate Li Yunxiao because what Li Yunxiao said was the truth.
From the beginning of the war, the people were unwilling to get involved, but after his son died, he felt that he had no way out, so he could only go to the dark side.
In fact, he had one chance, which was to dismiss the army and take the blame alone. Unfortunately, he was interrupted by the people who came to support him.
Li Zhen puffed up her chest leisurely, trying her best to show the demeanor of a prince, general, and minister, and looked at Li Yunxiao with a faint smile on her lips:
"Emperor Master, my father and son have been in office for many years, but they have failed to bring more benefits to the people. In the end, they still caused such chaos. I really feel ashamed of the people."
"The matter has come to this, and I understand what you said. It's a pity that there is no way out, and I, Li Zhen, will not trouble everyone anymore."
With that said, Li Zhen turned around and slowly knelt on the ground facing the scattered army that had not yet withdrawn.
"I am ashamed of you, you...go..."
After saying this, Li Zhen murmured to herself: "I'm afraid that our family will be reunited on the other side..."
Li Zhen took one last look at the army at the city gate, tears flashed in her eyes, then she picked up the long knife on the ground and slashed it towards her neck.
Ding!
Li Yunxiao pinched the tip of the knife. This scene made Li Zhen a little confused.
"I have committed a heinous crime and cannot be allowed to die in the hands of a temptress. I want to commit suicide. Why does the Emperor stop me?"
Li Zhen was afraid, he could die, but he must not die in the hands of Wu Meiniang or her men!
Click!
The long knife was broken, and Li Yunxiao said in a low voice: "You! Get out of here!!"
"Go back, take your family with you, and distribute all your wealth to the families of the people who died in the war. After that, you can get as far away as you can... and never come back again!"
Li Zhen was suddenly startled: "If I leave, you will..."
Li Yunxiao seemed to be tired, so he slapped him and knocked him unconscious.
As Li Shimin's son, do you have loyalty and filial piety? Yes, but he was completely fooled into a trap. He was all foolish and loyal, and became a pawn with no way out.
He couldn't let this kid die in front of him. The future path depended on his fate.
Li Yunxiao raised his head and looked at the one-armed man: "Is your name Fu Yanqing?"
Fu Yanqing nodded, and Li Yunxiao said calmly: "You can take him away."
Before Fu Yanqing could speak, the general guarding the city behind Li Yunxiao suddenly spoke to stop him.
"Emperor Master! Is there anything wrong with letting them go?"
"This Li Zhen is the person the Queen Mother ordered to capture. Since he has surrendered, we should take him back instead of letting him leave!"
Li Yunxiao struck out with all his strength and knocked the general off his horse. Then Li Yunxiao got on his horse and shouted:
"This matter has been resolved. The Emperor's Master will personally tell the Queen Mother about Li Zhen's crime. If you obstruct her, you will be regarded as traitorous and those who disobey will be executed!"
"Who has any objections!?" A roar mixed with internal energy spread outwards.
The soldiers' throats rolled and they did not dare to look directly at Li Yunxiao.
After patrolling around, Li Yunxiao rode into the city on horseback. The soldiers lowered their heads and got out of the way, allowing Li Yunxiao to leave.
When the general's adjutant saw Li Yunxiao walking away, he quietly came to him and helped him up: "How dare you? That's the emperor's master. He has many tokens in his hand. Even if he kills you, he will die in vain!"
When the general heard this, he grinned and rubbed his chest and stood up: "You bastards, all of them are bastards. They regard your life as grass. Are you worthy of joining the army?"
The adjutant murmured: "Our queen mother is not a king... Besides, we can't stop the emperor's master, can we?"
"Fart! Do you think you are just a showpiece when you have tens of thousands of soldiers? Who can defeat one against ten thousand? I think you are extremely stupid! You are just a waste!"
The adjutant murmured in his heart, among the tens of thousands of soldiers, most of them dare not move rashly. Who knows that Li Yunxiao has a humerus?
In addition, there was nothing wrong with killing imperial officials in the street a few years ago. Why are there still people so bold?
If you really block it, I'm afraid you will be left one-on-one with others! How can you defeat someone in a duel?
Although he thought so in his heart, the adjutant still smiled and said: "Yes, yes, you are right, my subordinate is wrong. His imperial master is still fast! If he runs slower, we will beat him in a group!"
The general calmed down a little after hearing this. He glanced at Li Zhen's army leaving in the distance, snorted angrily, turned around and walked towards the city.
"Since you are wrong, do you know where you went wrong?"
It was obvious that the general was planning to lose his temper with the adjutant.
The adjutant's eyes flickered, and he said with a naive smile: "See what you said is right, why can't I just let you curse and vent your anger? Then what's the use of me as an adjutant?!"
When the general heard this, he paused, opened and closed his mouth, and was speechless, unable to say anything to refute. Now he had no reason to lose his temper...
