There were only two Li brothers in the yard. After hearing the request, Li Ke also took a sip of wine, and then glanced at the boy in front of him. Is this really what he wanted to do sincerely?
Li Zhi is the person who will become the third emperor of the Tang Dynasty in history. His wife has come so far in advance to seize the throne. This plot is really incomprehensible, even for time-travelers with all kinds of skills.
"Brother Imperial, for the sake of our flesh and blood, please send troops to save my father, the Queen, and my mother. I am willing to be a pawn. I can..."
He actually wanted to lift a jar of wine, but he looked so weak that Li Zhi couldn't stand it until he raised it past his knees. Fortunately, he didn't drop the jar.
Li Ke was not sure whether he was sincere or just acting. No matter how young Li Zhi was, he knew that it was not like singing on the stage. Tens of thousands of people were going to attack Chang'an City, the capital of the Tang Dynasty. Someone was still guiding him behind the scenes. The members of the Changsun family were by the side of the two princes to take care of them throughout the whole process.
"Why didn't your second brother intercede?"
He deliberately changed the topic, more because he wanted to test Li Zhi's mind. It is difficult for people around him to be close friends, and this emperor is also temporary. If everything is really settled, sitting in Chang'an Whether the emperor of the city abdicates or retains his throne is a big question.
The vast majority of people in Licheng superficially support Li Ke's becoming emperor, but Li Tai has not expressed his stance until now, and is still writing various petitions in his study. This is a historical figure who has not yet completely destroyed his character. A role, albeit dispensable.
"Your Majesty redeems his sins, he..., he just couldn't accept such a change for a while, but he definitely had no intention of treason or disobedience, it was just my brother's idea!!!"
Li Zhi was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat. It seemed that he was not an undercover agent at the moment. He was kneeling on the ground looking very pious.
"Okay, I'm not interrogating you, get up!"
"We must save people. Your uncle, the eldest grandson, is more active than me. He helped me form an army just a few days after he came here. He is forced to become the emperor. What else can he do?!"
Li Ke was depressed about this kind of thing. He originally thought that by agreeing to Changsun Wuji to become emperor, he could suppress the old fox a little. Unexpectedly, before coming to Qizhou, he had secretly contacted more people to join, who could really affect the trend of the war. There are only people from Changsun Wuji’s faction.
"Brother Imperial, this is all for the common people in the world. Uncle Changsun will never have any other intentions!"
Li Zhi still wanted to speak, but was asked to leave with a gesture. The emperor trapped in Licheng had to be alone for a while.
Li Keman made some calculations and found that including Qin Zaiming's troops, there were only a little more than 2,000 people. Changsun Wuji had already invited 30,000 to 40,000 people outside the city. If the westward expedition to Chang'an City was really carried out, the scale was estimated to be hundreds of thousands. A battle on a human level.
This is not a small scene like a movie or TV show. If hundreds of thousands of people fight, it will definitely destroy all living beings. It is already very unlucky to travel through time and become the unlucky King of Shu. If he really raises his troops to attack Chang'an City, it will be almost treasonous. It was a serious crime, but the situation forced Li Ke to accept the current arrangement.
If we can win without a fight, that would be the best, but Wu Zetian has appeared in the current stage of history ahead of time. Her character will never give in. Peace talks are almost impossible, and Changsun Wuji’s Instigated, this battle is inevitable.
If you are drunk today, no one will bother the emperor of the small city anyway. He slept until noon and felt really comfortable, but when he woke up, he felt a sharp pain in his head.
"How will you be here?"
Seeing Yasha appear in front of him, Li Ke hurriedly looked for weapons that could be used. Her face was expressionless and very scary.
"Your Majesty makes atonement. I just brought her here. She said she knew some clues, so she brought Yizhen Tianyan."
Even the greenery has changed. Li Ke left Yasha behind, but his head really hurt. No matter how bad the ancient wine was, the alcohol content was really high, making it more uncomfortable than any previous hangover.
Yasha just reminded Wu Meiniang that she was probably carrying the bracelet that charmed all living beings, otherwise she would not be able to explain clearly what was happening in Chang'an City.
"So you want to go to the Imperial City of Chang'an City to steal the bracelet on our behalf, and then you can be free?"
It was obviously the so-called reward. Yasha wanted to escape after being rescued from Erlong Mountain, but Li Ke never gave her any chance. He spoke out to put an end to unrealistic thoughts.
He continued to rub his forehead, wary of Asha's approach.
If the cannibal's purpose in the Tang Dynasty is not explained clearly in one day, he will not be released.
"Don't you want to win at the least cost? I didn't sneak into the place you mentioned. Tell me where to get the bracelet. Otherwise, if a war breaks out, a lot of people on your side will die."
Yasha is still seeking benefits for herself. After all, this is a matter between the Tang people. As long as she gets the bracelet back and withdraws from the war, she will still go there even if there is some danger.
Li Ke clapped his hands, and the room finally became quiet, but his head hurt more and more, and he could only think about one thing. How to calm down this imminent war, it was not something Changsun Wuji or he could avoid with just a word.
After thinking about it, I fell asleep. In my dream, I saw a woman wearing a dragon robe. She was just a little girl, but her eyes were still full of desire for imperial power. She wore a blue bracelet on her right hand.
In the imperial city of Chang'an City, all the Imperial Guards were on alert, and the red wall became a larger cage. Li Shimin was still sitting on the throne, like a puppet on a string, sealing the imperial edict with a jade seal:.
"Cousin, is this okay? Qizhou already has an emperor. It's impossible to calm down just because of a piece of paper. Why don't we..."
Wu Wuozhu didn't dare to tell the truth after being glared at. As one of the generals around Wu Meiniang, he said such depressing words.
"He is still the emperor of the Tang Dynasty. He brought back half of the world. If his sons want to ascend the throne as emperor, they will either have to wait for their death or have to be robbed by force."
"There are still many people who will support the emperor. As long as we make good use of him and try to make Li Ke and others accept their fate."
Wu Meiniang took the imperial edict, which was the key to negotiating with Li Ke, the king of Shu. She thought it was a very generous condition. In addition to the superficial peace talks, the more important thing was to ensure that someone continued to support Li Shimin under the control of the Wu family.
"In order to show your sincerity, cousin, you must be the special envoy this time. As the saying goes, the two armies are at war without killing the envoy, so go with peace of mind."
Wu Wuozhu was dumbfounded, but he had to accept it. After all, the only person who could confuse the current emperor was his cousin.
Chang'an City is preparing for war.
