Li Shi Min was right.
Li Ke led his army to pursue the fleeing Turks and massacred millions of Turkic men.
Millions of women were captured.
The news of them being driven to Dingxiang along with the cattle, sheep, and horses quickly spread back from the border.
Instantly.
The aristocratic families and those virtuous gentlemen collectively went to court.
"Such behavior is outrageous!"
"Slaughtering millions of people, this person is too unscrupulous!”
"Impeach him! We must impeach him!"
"Not only will we impeach him, we will also destroy his reputation!”
“……”
Very quickly!
The aristocratic families took action.
Taking advantage of the fact that Li Ke hadn't returned, he had to smash his reputation to dust.
All sorts of criticism began to spread from Guanzhong to the Great Tang.
"Confucius once said that we should repay evil with good. The difference between us and the Turks is that we have been taught by the saints. Now, the King of Wu, Li Ke, was wantonly slaughtering Turkic civilians. He was no different from a beast!”
"The Turks were at fault for arrogantly threatening our Great Tang, but when two armies are fighting for victory, why slaughter the Turkic people?”
"The Turks have already surrendered to the Great Tang, begging for mercy. The King of Wu, Li Ke, has a heart of stone, and he has launched a brazen attack, slaughtering Turkic civilians for no reason. This is not the path of a saint!”
"I have no integrity and abandon the essentials. When you are happy, you think of what you have given. When you are angry, you think of what you have taken."
“……”
All the accusations.
They all pointed to Li Ke's massacre of Turkic civilians.
As for the fact that he had led his army thousands of miles deep into the grasslands and single-handedly turned the tide of the battle, it was as if he did not exist at all.
In this era.
The wisdom of the people has not yet been awakened.
Aristocratic families controlled the mouth.
What did they say?
The vast majority of ordinary people would listen to something.
Therefore…
The aristocratic families all spoke in unison.
The Great Tang's earth-shattering victory over the Turks had been forcefully suppressed by these clans.
What replaced it was…
Rumors began to spread that Li Ke was bloodthirsty and feared that the heavens would punish the Great Tang.
In fact…
Many aristocratic families had secretly contacted some scoundrels on the streets and were actually cursing at the entrance of King Wu's residence every day!
Wu Manor.
Wu Meiniang's face was as dark as water.
Although she had some tricks up her sleeve, now that Li Ke was not in the residence, she seemed to have lost her backbone.
Even if those scoundrels cursed at the entrance of the Prince's mansion, she didn't know how to deal with them.
"Your Highness…"
She sighed slightly. She didn't know how to deal with the current situation.
In the palace.
Li Shi Min received the news.
She was so angry that she smashed the jade pendant on her body.
"Bastard! Are you bullying my royal family?"
Li Shi Min roared in the Dew Palace.
"Men! Please, Sect Leader!"
The Great Patriarch.
A member of the imperial family who managed the imperial clan's Zongzheng Temple.
Not long after.
The great sect's Divine Talisman Li strode into the hall.
"Imperial Uncle.“
Li Shi Min stood up.
"The aristocratic families attacked the Third Prince, and even some refugees were dispatched to curse outside the Wu Mansion."
I want you to think of a way to get rid of these people!”
"Your Majesty, there's no need for us to do anything. Someone has already taken action." Li Shenfu cupped his hands and said.”
Li Shi Min raised his eyebrows.
"Who is it?"
"It's the second generation of the Wuxun Group, led by Cheng Chumo, the son of Eunuch Lu," said Li Shenfu.”
Instantly.
Li Shimin was overjoyed.
"It seems that my son's reputation in the army is already unparalleled!”
……
……
Outside the Wu Estate.
Cheng Chumo and the other silkpants appeared.
Looking at the refugees who were driven by the aristocratic families and families to deliberately disgust others, these people's eyes revealed a ferocious light.
"Brothers! The King of Wu rode over the Turks and killed millions of enemies in one battle. He is worthy of being our idol.
Now, we are being humiliated by these lowly people. How can we sit idly by!
Let's go!
Follow me to kill these bastards!"
Cheng Chumo roared and led a group of silkpants and family guards to charge forward.
No nonsense.
He just wanted to do it!
"Bang bang bang…"
These noble children, their fathers and brothers all came from the army.
All of them were skilled in martial arts and had the help of their servants.
He directly beat these refugees until they cried for their parents and bled.
In fact…
Many people were killed on the spot.
There were even Martial Marquises on patrol who heard the news and rushed over. When they saw this scene, they did not hesitate at all and turned to leave.
Humph!
Good fight!
Knowing that Cheng Chumo and the others had scattered all these people and left behind more than ten corpses, the patrolling Marquis finally dared to approach.
However, Cheng Chumo and the other rich second-generation heirs didn't feel guilty at all.
Instead, he was filled with excitement.
"Haha! This time, we are standing up for His Highness the King of Wu. When His Highness returns in triumph, it will be time for us to claim credit!”
"Pa! What a disappointing thing. It is your duty to work for His Highness the King of Wu. What face do you have to ask for credit?”
"That's right! Moreover, there is no need for His Highness Wu Wang to return. The elders in the family and His Majesty will naturally remember us this time!”
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Brothers, I was wrong.”
“……”
These silkpants laughed and laughed as they crossed the street arrogantly.
There was a feeling of being able to hold his head high and exhilarated.
Standing up for His Highness the King of Wu was where justice lay.
In the future, let's see who still dares to call us scoundrels!
