The roar was imbued with the power of the War God. It sounded like thunder and shook the roof tiles.
The Yuwen family slaves who were blocking the entrance of the Tang Duke's Mansion all trembled. They subconsciously covered their ears and stopped shouting.
They turned around in unison and saw a silver-armored youth dragging a silver spear and riding on a fiery red divine chariot slowly advancing.
Yang Zhao!
He was the Yang Zhao who had won the first round of the combat examination, the son-in-law of Tang Gong who had crippled their second young master with a single strike.
Butler Li Yi followed behind with trepidation. He grumbled in his heart. How could this son-in-law not put down his face at this time? It was not embarrassing to enter from the back door…
However, after taking a few steps, he was surprised to find that the originally fierce Yuwen family slaves seemed to be intimidated by his son-in-law's aura. They unconsciously made way for him, and no one dared to make a move.
"State Duke Xu's servants have always been domineering. They are actually afraid of son-in-law…"
Li Yi clicked his tongue in amazement, quietly raising his head to look at Yang Zhao's back, his heart filled with admiration for this son-in-law.
Yang Zhao dragged the Long Dan Spear, neither fast nor slow, proudly passing through dozens of slaves and arriving in front of the mansion.
"Don't be fooled by him. Take him down!”
At this moment, a hoarse roar sounded from the crowd.
It was Yuwen Huaji's younger brother, Yuwen Zhiji.
When he heard about the tragic encounter of his two nephews, he was furious. Without waiting for Yuwen Huaji's approval, he led his servants and aggressively rushed to the Li family to kill them.
Right now, he had so many people. If he let Yang Zhao enter the residence and not dare to make a move, where would his Yuwen family's face go!
The servants were reprimanded and could only suppress their fear, shouting as they rushed forward and surrounded Yang Zhao.
"He's only one person, what's there to be afraid of?”
"If you capture this brat, the Duke will reward you handsomely.”
"Go on, take him down!"
The servants clamored, regaining their ferocious momentum as they approached Yang Zhao step by step.
Yuwen Zhiji hid behind, his cold and proud eyes staring at Yang Zhao from afar, his eyes filled with contempt.
The atmosphere was tense.
Yang Zhao's fists cracked, ready to go on a killing spree.
Li Yi, who was beside him, was so scared that his face turned pale. He was sweating profusely, thinking that he would not be able to escape this calamity.
Da da ~~
A servant ran over and fell under Yuwen Zhiji's horse in a panic.
"Second Master, the Duke has ordered Second Master to quickly withdraw his troops.”
When he said this, everyone present was shocked.
Yuwen Zhiji's expression changed and he shouted,""Yang Zhao is right in front of me, why would big brother suddenly ask me to stop? Could it be that he's afraid of that Li Yuan?”
The servant leaned forward and told Yuwen Zhiji the truth about how Yuwen Huaji had complained to the emperor but was reprimanded by the emperor and ordered to reflect on his mistakes behind closed doors.
"Tian Zi actually berated big brother to protect that kid?”
Yuwen Zhiji cried out in shock. His shocked expression was as if he had heard the most unbelievable thing in his life.
Then, he turned his head shakily and looked at the son-in-law of the Li family. He could not understand why the emperor would be so protective of him.
"Yang Zhao is here. If you are not satisfied, come and fight!"
The young man raised his Dragon Bile Spear and shouted again.
Yuwen Zhiji was jolted awake from his absent-mindedness and hurriedly shouted,""All of you, retreat and return to the residence immediately.”
Before he finished speaking, Yuwen Zhiji beat his horse and left.
The master had left, so how could the servants still have the courage? They scattered in a hubbub and escaped.
In the blink of an eye, the area in front of the Tang Duke's Mansion had been cleared.
"They…they were really scared away by son-in-law?”
Li Yi was overjoyed, as if he had just survived the gates of hell. He looked up at the youth in front of him.
There was no longer a trace of sympathy in the butler's eyes, nor did he dare to underestimate the identity of the son-in-law of the poor family. There was only deep respect.
Yang Zhao's eyes also revealed a trace of confusion.
He had thought that a battle was inevitable and was prepared to start a massacre.
Unexpectedly, a second ago, Yuwen Zhiji was still proud and arrogant. In the next second, after hearing the servant bite his ear a few times, he immediately cowered. It was really strange.
He couldn't figure it out, and he couldn't be bothered to think about it. He put away the Long Dan Spear and turned around to enter the residence.
At this moment, a carriage stopped in front of the manor and Li Yuan got off.
"Father-in-law." Yang Zhao dismounted and stepped forward to greet him.
"Zhao 'er, you're back. I'm relieved to see that you're fine.”Li Yuan heaved a sigh of relief and smiled in comfort.
"Regarding the two Yuwen brothers, please listen to me, father-in-law. I, Yang Zhao, will take responsibility for my actions. I have decided to enter the palace to meet the emperor and make a statement to His Majesty, not to implicate father-in-law.”
Yang Zhao acted with a clear conscience and had no intention of seeking Li Yuan's protection.
Li Yuan asked curiously,""Zhao 'er, have you met His Majesty these days?”
Yang Zhao stared blankly for a moment before smiling faintly,"Father-in-law, what are you asking? Your Majesty is the supreme being. I'm in the Imperial Palace. How could I have seen Your Majesty?”
"That's strange!"
Li Yuan's face was filled with surprise and confusion.
"Since His Majesty doesn't know you, why would he protect you so much? Today, in the Hall of Benevolence and Longevity, he actually scolded Yuwen Huaji, this favorite minister, for you and even ordered him to reflect on his mistakes!”
"Hmm?"
Hearing Li Yuan's words, Yang Zhao was also stunned.
