Hearing
the noisy shouts in the distance, Li Xiu immediately turned around and left, disappearing into the depths of the forest.
When Qin Qiong and the others arrived, only the corpse of Jie Li Khan was left, and Li Xiu's figure was nowhere to be seen.
Qin Qiong and the others brought the body of Jie Li Khan back to Chang 'an City, and Li Shimin immediately let out a sigh of relief.
Jie Li Khan died, the Turks will certainly be in chaos.
Li Shimin finally put down his heart.
He looked around, trying to catch a glimpse of Li Xiu's figure, but he could not see him.
"Shu Bao, where is that Divine General riding a white tiger? Why didn't he come back with you?”Li Shi Min asked.
"It was he who saved the Great Tang and preserved its dignity. This Emperor must reward him well and make him a Great General!”
Li Shi Min's words were filled with gratitude towards Li Xiu.
Not only had Li Xiu protected the dignity of the Great Tang, he had also protected the dignity of Li Shiming.
"This…" Qin Qiong stammered, somewhat embarrassed to speak.
"Uncle, what's going on?" Li Shiming frowned.”
"Your Majesty, when this subordinate arrived, that person had already disappeared, leaving only Jie Li Khan's corpse.”
"I have also sent people to search, but there were no traces.”
Qin Qiong said truthfully.
"What?!"
"Disappeared?!"
Li Shi Min raised his voice in disbelief.
"It can't be, right? How did he disappear?"
"Didn't he charge into the formation alone and defeat the two hundred thousand Turkic soldiers to gain fame?!”
Zhangsun Wuji also said in disbelief.
In his opinion, this person would display his unparalleled strength in front of everyone and obtain the Emperor's recognition. From there, he would enter the officialdom and become famous throughout the world!
This was a normal way of thinking for a politician.
Not only Zhangsun Wuji, even Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui had the same thoughts.
Li Shimin was the same.
But…
Now, it seemed that this was not the case.
Could it be that he did not do it for fame and fortune, but merely to protect the dignity of the Great Tang?
Li Shiming didn't notice Chang Le's expression, nor did he hear her shout at the beginning.
If he had noticed, he would have easily guessed who that person was!
She would also understand why he had disappeared.
Unfortunately, he did not know.
He could only look up at the sky and sigh.
"Sigh! Our Great Tang has produced many talents, including the peerless genius Li Xiu and the mighty Tiger Divine General Li Le, but we can't use them for the Imperial Court. How tragic! It hurts!"
"Your Majesty, please relax. Since this person is willing to help the Great Tang in its crisis, it shows that he is a patriotic person. Although he is not in the Imperial Court, his heart is on the Great Tang.”
Fang Xuanling comforted.
"I hope it's as you said, Prime Minister Fang!”Li Shi Min shook his head in disappointment.
At night, Li Shiming returned to the palace and massaged his temples.
Too many things had happened today, making him, the emperor, mentally and physically exhausted.
Especially when he recalled his daughter's ashen expression, it made his heart ache even more.
I hope she won't blame me.
Li Shimin walked straight to Changle's palace.
He did not expect to run into Empress Zhangsun, who was preparing to go to Changle Palace.
When Empress Zhangsun Sun saw Li, her face turned cold. She ignored him and walked straight to the Changle Palace.
Obviously, he was still angry about the marriage between Chang Le and the other party.
Li Shi Min rubbed his nose awkwardly and didn't say anything. After all, it was his fault.
When Empress Zhangsun entered, Li Shimin was too embarrassed to enter. He just stood outside the door, wanting to hear his daughter's feelings.
After a while, the sound of a mother-daughter conversation could be heard in the room.
Li Shi Min listened carefully.
"Changle, it's been hard on you today. However, don't blame your Imperial Father. He had no choice!”
As a virtuous Empress, although she was angry that Li Shiming had used her daughter in the marriage alliance, she understood that he had no choice.
Outside the door, Li Shiming felt a slight warmth in his heart. As expected, his Empress was still very virtuous!
"Mother, actually I don't blame father. Instead, we should thank Imperial Father!"
Thank you father? Empress Zhangsun was puzzled."Your father wants to marry you to the barbarians. Why are you thanking him?”
"If it wasn't for Father marrying me off to the barbarians, I wouldn't have known that my position in my husband's heart was so important. For me, he actually dared to become enemies with an army of 200,000?!”
Changle recalled Li Xiu's god-like figure during the day, his face full of happiness and intoxication.
Unhindered on the battlefield!
I'll go wherever I want!
The Turks were terrified by the killing.
All of this was for her!
"Your husband?"
"Li Xiu?"
"But wasn't the person who helped the Great Tang defeat the Turkic army today called Li Le?!”
The Empress had also heard about what had happened today.
When that person introduced himself on the battlefield, he clearly called himself 'Li Le'.
Now that she heard what Chang Le said, she was confused.
"Hehe, that's my husband's alias!”Changle smiled happily.
"My husband's surname is Li, and I'm Princess Changle, so my husband's alias is Li Le!”
"All of this is to hide from the public. He doesn't want people to know that he's in Chang 'an.”
"Husband doesn't like being an Official, so mother, you must not tell father!”
Changle didn't know that Li Shimin had heard everything.
Everything suddenly made sense.
His face instantly turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
He cursed Li Xiu ten thousand times in his heart.
I was wondering why such an amazing person suddenly appeared.!
I said that the Turks had retreated and Changle was safe, so he ran away without a trace?!
Motherf * cker!
So it was all because of that kid!
Haha!
Little bastard, good job!
To think that I have searched all over the world for you. I didn't expect that you would come to Chang 'an, and you were right under my nose.
You actually played this trick on me! Look at what you can do!
Alright!
Didn't you not want to be an official?
I'll let you be the one, and I'll let you be the most tiring official!
If the system could read Li Shiming's mind, it would shake his hand excitedly.
Fellow Daoist, fellow Daoist!
There was another person in the world who didn't want him to be a salted fish!
Li Xiu's future would not be easy!
