Chapter 198
"You can forgive the evil done by God, but you can't live if you do it yourself!" Staring at Tang Long's disappearing back, Tang Yu smiled jokingly.
"General Li, there's no need to thank you. This is something I, the Tang Dynasty, owe you. General Li is the pillar of the country. If it weren't for this bastard Tang Long, General Li wouldn't have fallen like this!" Tang Yu said indignantly.
He could finally see that this Tang Long had no abilities other than playing tricks.
Meng Tian took the opportunity to say: "Second brother, His Highness the Crown Prince is kind-hearted. It is not a problem for you to occupy Tiandang Mountain all year round. How about Second Brother, please join me in serving His Highness the Crown Prince!"
"This..." Li Jing looked at his wife on the hospital bed.
Lu Susu knew Li Jing's scruples, and she smiled weakly: "General, Brother Meng is right. After all, occupying a mountain and becoming king is not a long-term solution. If His Highness the Crown Prince can help you clear your grievances and clear your name, being loyal to His Highness the Crown Prince is a good choice. , don’t worry about my thoughts!”
"Thank you madam for your understanding!" Li Jing said movedly.
"By the way, General Li, the Prime Minister asked me to pass this on to you!"
Immediately, Tang Yu touched his pocket and handed the letter written by Xu Shize to Li Jing.
Li Jing was surprised and said, "Is this what the Prime Minister gave me?"
Remember URL
"Not bad!" Tang Yu nodded.
Li Jing had met Xu Shize several times before. Although they had not dealt with each other in depth, Li Jing knew what Xu Shize was like.
Taking a deep breath, Li Jing opened the letter. After reading the letter, Li Jing looked up at the sky, and two lines of tears flowed down his cheeks.
Tang Yu and Meng Tian looked at each other. Neither of them knew why Li Jing was so moved.
Meng Tian asked: "Second brother, what's wrong?"
"Brother!" Li Jing reached out and handed the letter to Meng Tian.
"this..."
Meng Tian was shocked after reading it, and then handed the letter to Tang Yu.
Tang Yu took a look and saw that the Tang Emperor's apology to Li Jing was clearly written on the letter. However, the Tang Emperor was unable to apologize to Li Jing due to his status as the king. In addition, Qin Mang, the general who protected the country, was on Tang Long's side. For the sake of the overall situation, the Tang Emperor could not apologize to Li Jing. We can't go to war. In fact, Emperor Tang knew the grievances in Li Jing's heart.
Moreover, Xu Shize's letter also stated that if Li Jing is willing to continue to be loyal to the imperial court, he will make Li Jing his general. If Li Jing is not willing, the Emperor of Tang will bestow gold and silver treasures on Li Jing so that Li Jing can enjoy a lifetime of glory. If Li Jing does not choose to continue to occupy the mountain as his general, King, as long as Li Jing does not infringe on the interests of the imperial court, the Tang Emperor will never send troops to attack Tiandang Mountain.
The first part of the letter mainly contains the meaning of Emperor Tang, while the second part of the letter mainly expresses the meaning of Xu Shize.
Xu Shize told him that if Li Jing chose to be loyal to Tang Yu, he would have Li Jing send all the 100,000 bandits to the front lines and hide in secret.
In this way, Tang Yu leads 30,000 golden fire cavalry in the light, while Li Jing leads 100,000 mountain bandits in the dark, cooperating internally and externally. If necessary, the troops can unite in one place, assemble an army of 130,000, and catch the opponent by surprise.
"Thirty thousand in the light, one hundred thousand in the dark, Lao Xu, Lao Xu, you are so cool, I like it!"
Emperor Tang's intention was obviously to recruit him, but Xu Shize secretly intercepted Hu and asked Li Jing to submit to him secretly and assist him on the front line.
At this time, Tang Yu was really amazed by Xu Shize's wisdom, and at the same time he was deeply moved in his heart. Although Xu Shize was an old fox, everything he did was for his own sake.
"General Lee!"
Staring at Li Jing, Tang Yu solemnly said: "I'm not a fool like Tang Long. I know how to make good use of people. Here, I will never allow my people to suffer any injustice. If General Li is willing, I hope we can work together. It’s going to be a big deal!”
"Second brother!" Meng Tian's eyes became wild.
Seeing Tang Yu's eagerness for talents, Li Jing instantly knelt down on one knee. He clasped his fists and said forcefully: "If Your Highness doesn't mind, Li Jing is willing to be loyal to Your Highness and we can achieve great things together!"
