Release a National Wanted Order to Capture Li Ke!
Li Shi Min, who was sitting on the throne, was trembling. He felt that the world in front of him had turned gray.
Li Ke had escaped, and so did Concubine Yang!
All of this made Li Shi Min's lungs almost explode.
He looked at the soldier kneeling on the ground and really wanted to slash him with his saber. How could he let Li Ke escape? What are you all doing!
And the Thousand Bull Guards in the palace, are you also freeloaders?
How could he lose such an important harem? All of you deserve to die, all of you deserve to die!
Li Shimin took a deep breath and said,"How did Li Ke escape? Speak!"”
The soldier didn't dare to hide it and quickly said,""This general followed Lord Li to investigate Li Ke in the city. Suddenly, we heard an unknown sound at the south gate, so Lord Li Jing quickly led us there.”
"But when we arrived at the south gate, we found that all the soldiers guarding the city were dead. The gate was wide open, and Li Ke was gone.”
"Lord Li Jing has already led his men to investigate, but because we found Li Ke's message on the city wall, Lord Li ordered me to report to His Majesty and wait for His Majesty's order.”
"Li Ke's message? What message did this unfilial son leave?" Li Shi Min asked.
The soldier quickly said," On the city wall, there is a line of big words written in blood. The content is: I have been wronged and have to leave. Three years later, I will return to Chang 'an to seek justice and return the Tang Empire to peace!”
Bang!
Just as Fang Xuanling and the others were thinking about the meaning of Li Ke's message, they suddenly heard a loud bang.
Li Shi Min stood up from his throne and kicked the table in front of him.
His face was ferocious and crazed, and he was extremely furious.
"You still dare to say that you were wronged? If you're not rebelling and fleeing now, what are you??”
"You want to return to Chang 'an to seek justice three years later? Who do you want to seek justice from? To me?"
"Unfilial son, unfilial son!"
Li Shi Min felt extremely depressed, and his entire body trembled with anger." Why did I give birth to such an unfilial son? I hate it. When you were born, I should have killed you. I should have killed you..."
"Pfft-"
All of a sudden, Li Shi Min felt a sweet taste in his throat. He opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood.
His eyes suddenly turned black. In the next moment, his entire person actually fell back because of endless sadness and anger.
Li Shi Min was so angry that he vomited blood and fainted.
"Your Majesty-"
The moment before he fell, Li Shiming seemed to see Li Ke's face with a mocking smile, and he seemed to hear Li Ke say to him,"I'll let you roam free for another three years. Three years later, I'll be the Emperor of the Great Tang!”
…………
After some time, Li Shiming opened his eyes again.
The sky was already bright. He had been unconscious for the entire night.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you're awake."
At this moment, a surprised voice sounded.
Li Shi Min looked over and saw Empress Zhangsun looking at him in surprise. At this moment, Empress Zhangsun's eyes were swollen from crying and her expression was very haggard. It was obvious that she already knew about Li Chengqian's death.
"What time is it now?" Li Shi Min asked.
Empress Zhangsun quickly sat Li Shimin up and said,""It's already a quarter to nine."
"Where are Xuan Ling and the others?"
"They are all outside protecting His Majesty.”
Li Shiming nodded and held Empress Zhangsun's hand.""Guanyin maid, don't worry, zhen will definitely avenge your son, zhen swears!”
Empress Zhangsun's tears flowed down again, and her face revealed a trace of resentment.""Your Majesty, this concubine wants to make that b * tch Li Ke and Concubine Yang, as well as that bastard Li Yin, wish they were dead. I want them to regret being human!”
"I will, I definitely will!"
Li Shiming patted the back of Empress Zhangsun's hand and said,""Let Xuan Ling come over. Zhen has something to instruct him.”
Empress Zhangsun wiped her tears and walked out.
Not long after, Fang Xuanling walked over and said hurriedly,"Your Majesty, do you feel better?”
Li Shi Min shook his head." I'm fine," he said." Is there any news from Li Jing?"”
"Not yet. Perhaps Li Ke and the others have been running all the way without stopping, so Li Jing and the others are temporarily unable to catch them.”Fang Xuanling said.
Li Shi Min took a deep breath and said,"Li Ke, that treacherous son, is full of tricks. The fact that he could escape from Chang 'an so quickly shows that he must have been prepared, so Li Jing may not be able to catch him easily.”
"Xuanling, immediately draft a decree and release the Imperial Roll to the world. Just say…"
Li Shimin thought for a moment and said," Let's say that the King of Shu, Li Ke, rebelled and raped the people. He colluded with the Turks. The evidence is conclusive. I have stripped him of his royal status and demoted him to a commoner. Now, I am hunting for Li Ke in the entire Great Tang. Anyone who can provide clues about Li Ke will be directly conferred the title of County Earl and rewarded with a thousand strings of money!”
"And those who can capture Li Ke will be conferred the title of County Marquis and rewarded with 3,000 strings of money.”
Hearing this, Fang Xuanling couldn't help but feel shocked. He said,""Your Majesty, isn't this reward too generous?”
"I will use such a generous reward to let Li Ke know that there is no place for him in this world!" Li Shi Min said coldly.”
"I understand," Fang Xuanling nodded."I'll do it immediately."”
"Xuanling, where do you think Li Ke will go after he defected?" Li Shimin asked after thinking for a while.”
Fang Xuanling pondered for a moment before saying,"Li Ke used to be the Governor of Yizhou and had some power there. If he has a way to go, perhaps Yizhou is the only place he can go.”
"Then order another checkpoint to be set up on the road from Chang 'an to Yizhou. The army will capture Li Ke along the way! At the same time, he would be transferred to the new Yizhou Governor and take up his post in Yizhou to deal with Li Ke's remaining forces and wait for Li Ke to walk into the trap!”
"If Li Ke is lucky enough to escape back to Yizhou, then he will realize in despair that there is no place for him in this world. Yet, he still dares to tell me that he will return in three years…What a joke!" Li Shiming said expressionlessly.”
"I want him to know the consequences of betraying me, the consequences of not listening to my orders and obediently dying, that is…living a life worse than death. Living is actually more painful!”
Hearing Li Shiming's words, Fang Xuanling sighed in his heart. Li Ke, you don't know how terrifying the imperial power is. This time, you really can't escape even if you have wings…
…………
P.S. Let's talk about the relationship between Li Shimin and Concubine Yang. Yang Guang died in the year 618, and Li Ke was born in the year 619. In ancient times, when both parents died, their children had to observe filial piety. During the mourning period, they could not do anything, let alone get married and get pregnant. Therefore, according to normal rules, Concubine Yang should have observed filial piety from the year 618 to the year 619. However, she gave birth to Li Ke in the year 619. What happened during that period, and who forced her to not even observe filial piety, you can know.
Therefore, the author had designed Li Shiming's character and how he treated Concubine Yang. It was not to make Li Shiming worse. Of course…it was also to make him worse. After all, he was a villain, but there was some historical basis.
