Marquis Champion?
When did I get such a title?
These days, Li Yuansheng had been fighting outside and did not know about Li Erjia's matter.
"Lord Marquis, His Majesty has been looking for you with great difficulty. I heard that you haven't had any food or water for three consecutive days.”
Three days?
Li Yuansheng was stunned again.
"What day is it today?"
"3rd of September."
"Ah!"
Li Yuansheng gasped.
It should be the 30th day of the 8th month on the day I killed Jie Li Khan. Today is the 3rd day of the 9th month. So, I slept for 3 days and 3 nights in the grass by the bank of Wei River?
No wonder he was so hungry.
"Then take me to see His Majesty."
Li Yuansheng said.
When Bao Yongzhen heard this, he hurriedly said,
" Quick, someone come and bathe the Marquis Champion…"
"No need!"
Before Bao Yongzhen could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Li Yuansheng.
"The clothes and scars on my body were left behind by my bloody battles for the Great Tang.”
Bao Yongzhen was enlightened.
Li Yuansheng wanted to claim credit from the emperor.
However, he had indeed made a great contribution.
It was a great achievement!
"Alright, I'll bring you to see His Majesty now.”
Li Er was frantically searching for Li Yuansheng. If he could bring Li Yuansheng to the Emperor, he would surely be rewarded.
"Lord Bao, when I fought the Turks, my clothes were all tattered, so I didn't bring any money with me. I slept for three days, and I was too hungry. I had a big meal in a restaurant as soon as I entered the city, but I haven't paid for it. I'll have to trouble you to help me pay for it. I'll return it to you when His Majesty rewards me.”
Li Yuansheng turned his gaze to the restaurant manager at the side.
The shopkeeper was stunned.
"You…you're really the Marquis Champion, Li Yuansheng?”
These days, Li Yuansheng's deeds had spread throughout Chang 'an.
He led three hundred cavalry and fought for thousands of miles, causing the Turks to tremble in fear.
In the battle of the Wei River, he had killed the Jie Li Khan, establishing the Great Tang's victory.
If Li Yuansheng hadn't appeared, the consequences would have been unimaginable if the Turkic soldiers had entered Chang 'an.
Li Yuansheng had saved the lives of all the people in Chang 'an.
The former silkpants and prodigals were not worth mentioning in front of such a huge contribution.
It could even be said that it was just some interesting past events.
Now, the number one prodigal in Chang 'an had become an idol worshipped by the people.
In Chang 'an, countless youths were secretly swearing.
One day, I will also be the number one prodigal in Chang 'an!
They could say this dream out loud.
When the parents heard this, not only did they not refute it, they even praised it.
"My son is good. In the future, he will also become the number one prodigal in Chang 'an.”
……
The shopkeeper stared at Li Yuansheng and suddenly knelt down.
"Benefactor, great benefactor!"
This sudden change made Li Yuansheng feel a little helpless.
What kind of show was this?
Bao Yongzhen interjected.
"The millions of citizens of Chang 'an City owe their lives to the Marquis Champion.”
Li Yuansheng finally understood.
"No matter what, it's only right and proper to pay for food.”
Li Yuansheng instructed.
Hearing this, Bao Yongzhen nodded secretly.
The current Li Yuansheng's personality had indeed changed drastically. It was as if he had become a completely different person.
In the past, Li Yuansheng relied on his status and power to dine and dash.
Now, he actually knew that he had to take the initiative to pay.
Bao Yongzhen hurriedly took out five taels of silver and handed it to the shopkeeper.
"Benefactor, how can I accept your silver? I was muddle-headed just now. I didn't recognize Mount Tai.”
The restaurant manager felt extremely regretful.
"That's another matter. You should pay for your meal. Take the money and leave first. I still have to enter the palace to meet His Majesty.”
Only then did the shopkeeper helplessly accept the silver.
Li Yuansheng walked out of the yamen.
The streets were already filled with commoners.
In that short moment, it was unknown which bailiff had spread the news of Li Yuansheng's appearance.
The news spread like wildfire.
When Li Yuan Sheng came out, he saw many innocent faces.
They were the citizens of the Great Tang.
They were the people of Chang 'an.
"Thank you for saving my life, Marquis Champion."
"Thank you for saving my life, Marquis Champion."
……
On Chang 'an Street, countless people knelt on the ground.
……
On a building by the street, a woman was standing in front of the window, looking at Li Yuansheng, who was surrounded by Chang 'an citizens.
Li Yuansheng's clothes were already in tatters.
riddled
His muscles were exposed.
As for those muscles, scars could be vaguely seen.
That was the military merit that he had once fought in a bloody battle.
the woman murmured in the room.
"Is my husband such a hero?”
