After Li Jing took it, he felt a faint pain in his hand, knowing that the other party was extremely strong.
This was a jade scroll, an imperial edict of the highest level.
The materials used in the imperial edict were very exquisite. They were made of high-quality silk.
The pattern was auspicious clouds and cranes. It was definitely authentic.
Li Jing immediately became extremely serious. He respectfully opened the imperial edict and read it.
"Under my command, I have specially dispatched the acting king, Li Jian, to patrol the north on my behalf. I will control all the generals, civil servants, military horses, money, and food.”
Boom!
Li Jian!
Li Jing immediately understood. He hurriedly handed the imperial edict to the servant beside him and walked over with a bow. He said respectfully,"I didn't know that Your Highness had come. I'm guilty. Please forgive me, Your Highness.”
Seeing Li Jing's respectful attitude, the other soldiers knew that this child must have an extremely high status. They were all petrified.
Especially the few soldiers who had been beaten up by Li Jian earlier. They were even more terrified as they lay on the ground and convulsed.
The women and children in the military camp were so scared that they hid in their barracks.
Li Jing turned around and ordered the guards,"Go, arrest all the soldiers who have neglected His Highness and hand them over to His Highness for punishment."”
"Understood." With a wave of his hand, Li Jing's personal guards swarmed forward and grabbed all the soldiers in the camp who had their heads lowered, binding them together.
If they attacked the prince, according to the laws of the imperial court, they would probably have to be executed.
Li Jian's tiger eyes shone brightly as he scanned the crowd.
Finally, he fixed his gaze on Li Jing and said in a clear voice,
"This king has just arrived at my fief, yet I was attacked like this. As the highest military officer in this place, what crime do you deserve?”
Hearing this, Li Jing's heart tightened. People said that the Dai King was young and weak, but it was not true.
With such a domineering statement, the aura of a king shot out from between his brows.
His gaze was like a rocket leaving the bow, as bright as a shooting star.
What was even more inconceivable was that this young prince in front of him was clearly only a youth, but he was so extraordinary.
"Your Highness, it was my fault. I was negligent in restraining my subordinates. Please forgive me.”Li Jing lowered his head and said softly.
As the commander of the Eastern Turks, Li Jing's reputation was at its zenith, and even Li Er was very fond of him.
It was also because of this unprecedented victory and because Xue Yantuo had been an ally of the Great Tang for more than a decade.
Thus, without any enemies, the Great Tang's northern border was now less guarded.
"This king wants to punish you, do you have half a minute to complain?”
Li Jian said coldly. Although he had the body of a young man, he stood straight. His entire body showed a cold and hard line.
Even his tone was terrifyingly cold, as if the air had frozen.
"Please forgive me, Your Highness.”Li Jing whispered.
Li Jian said coldly," I'll save your sins for now. I'll see how you perform in the future. If you break the law again, I'll settle the old and new scores together. Now, you can deal with your subordinates!”
"I accept your orders! This general will definitely punish them properly. These dogs dared to offend His Highness and deserve to die.”Li Jing said respectfully.
Li Jian shot a glance at Li Jing and then jumped onto his horse. After lashing out with his whip, the white horse galloped away.
He left the military camp at lightning speed, leaving behind a cloud of dust.
Li Jing, who had a look of shock on his face, was still dumbfounded. The substitute king-so this was how mighty he looked!
Then, he turned around and cursed at the soldiers,
"What are you looking at? Catch them all and hang them up for me to beat them up! You're all f * cking blind, you almost harmed me!”
……
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for intimidating Li Jing's army and successfully obtaining a map of Bingzhou. It has been stored in the host's brain and can be used to check the situation of Bingzhou in real time.”
"Ding…triggered the next mission. Run Bing Province, exterminate Li Chengqian's confidant and cut off Zhangsun Wuji's lackeys.”
Hearing the system's voice in her mind, Li Jian, who was riding a horse, couldn't help but feel relaxed.
The sky is high and birds can fly!
Here, Bingzhou would be his first step to the world!
Li Chengqian's confidant? Zhangsun Wuji's minions? Hmph, it's just a little dessert delivered to my doorstep!
The feast was still to come, but they had to eat these desserts first!
According to Tang's report, Li Jing would return to Chang 'an to accept Li Er's decree and prepare to use troops against Goguryeo.
The position of the general manager of the Pingjiang Road was waiting for Li Jing, so Bingzhou would welcome a new general.
It was impossible for this general to be on the same side as Li Jian. Instead, he was recommended by Zhangsun Wuji, who had real power in the court.
They were Crown Prince Li Chengqian's men, and most likely Li Tai's men.
In the fifth year of Zhenguan, although it looked prosperous, the palace struggles were turbulent.
When he returned to the military camp, the leader of the Yulin Royal Guards who had protected Li Jian to his fief, as well as Li Jian's personal eunuch Zheng Ji and his study companion Wang Yong, were already waiting anxiously.
"Your Highness, where did you go? We were so worried." Zheng Ji came over to lead the horse.
"Nowhere. Oh right, why are we staying in the military camp? Don't you have a temporary residence?" Li Jian asked as she jumped off the horse and scanned the shabby military camp.
"Your Highness, the Provincial Governor, Lord Rao, has just sent the chief historian here. He said that he has already prepared a residence for Your Highness, but he still has to wait for seven or eight days.”The leader of the Yulin Royal Guards said.
