Three miles away from the city, Mu Yikuan reined in his horse and stopped.
Li Chengqian did not notice at all. Riding on the white tiger, he continued to run forward happily.
Mu Yikuan frowned and gave the white tiger an order. The white tiger suddenly turned and ran towards Mu Yikuan again. It stopped in front of him obediently.
Li Chengqian was puzzled." Sir, what is this for?”
Mu Yikuan let out a long sigh and said,"A few years ago, when I was passing through a mountain forest, I accidentally discovered it when it was still young.”Mu Yikuan caressed the white tiger's forehead tenderly and continued,""Seeing that it was pitiful, I brought it home and took good care of it. For several years, we were almost inseparable, so our feelings were deep. It understood me, and I understood it.”
"To me, he is not a tiger, but my brother!”
"And it…"
"She sensed that we were about to separate and was reluctant to leave.”
The white tiger seemed to have understood Mu Yikuan's words and revealed a pitiful expression. It kept rubbing its head against the back of Mu Yikuan's hand. It whimpered like a cat or a loyal dog.
"Then…it's better for it to stay by Mister's side."”
Mu Yikuan waved his hand." What's said is like water that has been poured out. How can you take it back?" The reason why I gave it to you is because I can see that you two are quite fated. If not for that, even if you give me a mountain of gold and silver, it's not enough to make me give up our brotherhood!”
After a pause, he solemnly warned,"You must take good care of it. Don't let it suffer any grievances.”
Li Chengqian nodded solemnly." Sir, please rest assured."”
Mu Yikuan smiled gratefully. He touched the white tiger's forehead and said softly," Don't look back. Follow him. He's a prince of the Tang Empire. He shouldn't go back on his word." Besides, I'm also in Chang 'an. We can meet anytime.”
The white tiger whimpered, still reluctant to part.
Mu Yikuan retracted his hand. Ting straightened her body and said,""Brother Qian, you go first."
"Sir, you're not coming with me?" Li Chengqian asked in surprise.”
Mu Yikuan laughed out loud." The prince's return to the capital is definitely a major event. Perhaps there will be civil and military officials waiting for him. I will only appear superfluous and an eyesore beside Brother Qian.”Seeing that Li Chengqian still wanted to say something, Mu Yikuan waved his hand and interrupted him." Brother Qian, don't say anything else. It's better for you to return to the capital quickly and pay your respects to your father."”
Li Chengqian did not insist. He bowed respectfully and galloped away on his tiger.
Looking at Li Chengqian, who was walking away, Mu Yikuan was deep in thought.
Walking with Li Chengqian was indeed eye-catching and could greatly raise his status. However, he was still unknown now and could not be compared to Li Chengqian at all. Walking together would only serve as a foil. Would someone as arrogant and powerful as him, the future invincible emperor, be a foil to others?
Other than that, he would definitely be doubted and rolled his eyes by the civil and military officials.
Since that was the case, why should he bask in that light?
He wanted to figure out a way to make the entire Chang 'an City, including Li Shimin, regard him as a master!
An expert, a person who was above everything!
Xiaomiao pouted unhappily." The white tiger was only taken in last night. Why did the Emperor say that it was taken in a few years ago? He was just a beast, what right did he have to call the emperor brother? You're lying! Huang Xiaomiao doesn't like liars."
Mu Yikuan patted Xiaomiao's little head and said,""Everyone loves to hear stories."
"If a person or an item has an extraordinary story, its value will definitely multiply! Not all lies were wrong. Why not lie that was beneficial to oneself and did not hurt others? The reason why I lied was because I wanted to raise the White Tiger's position in my heart a little, so that Li Chengqian would be even more grateful to me and accept my favor.”
Xiaomiao frowned, not understanding what he meant.
Mu Yikuan laughed." Don't be conflicted. You'll understand when you grow up. You only need to remember that no matter what your Emperor says or does, he is always right, understand? Oh, don't call me 'Emperor'. Call me big brother. We must love each other and live happily in this world.”
…………
The sun was high in the sky, and the city gates were wide open.
With Qiang's well-armed soldiers on sentry duty, there was an endless stream of pedestrians coming and going.
Everything was so orderly.
"Look, what's that?"
Suddenly, someone shouted and pointed at the road.
The pedestrians and soldiers at the city gate were puzzled. They looked in the direction of the person's finger and saw a white tiger the size of a calf rushing over like a demon beast. Unbelievably, there was another person on the tiger's back. He waved his hand high as if he was controlling the smoke and dust in the sky.
Fear!
Because they did not understand the situation, everyone was terrified!
"Quick, everyone, return to the city!"
"Archers, get ready! Once the intruders were within 100 feet of him, he would kill them!”
One of the generals was relatively calm and gave the order decisively.
Finally returning to Chang 'an, Li Chengqian was extremely excited. He urged the white tiger to run faster. The white tiger was unusually powerful and its speed was indeed amazing. Even a thousand-li horse would find it difficult to match it. He had just seen the city gate, but the next moment, he was already close to it. However, what puzzled him was why the soldiers at the city gate were in a state of combat readiness with surging killing intent?
He dared to draw his bow and arrow at him, he had guts!
Li Chengqian was furious.
However, although he was annoyed, he was also worried that the soldiers at the city gate would really shoot him to death.
"Don't shoot! I am the Prince of Zhongshan, Li Chengqian!”
Prince of Zhongshan?
F * ck!
Did that cowardly Prince of Zhongshan have the ability to ride a tiger?
If he was the Prince of Zhongshan, how could he not have guards?
No one believed him!
The incident at Xuanwu Sect had happened not long ago, and ordinary soldiers and generals would not recognize the princes and grandchildren who were far away from the capital.
" 150 feet away, shoot!"
The general sneered and gave an even more vicious order.
"Sou ~~~"
An arrow shot out, straight towards Li Chengqian on the white tiger's back.
