On the streets of Chang 'an, whether it was in the streets or alleys, or in many restaurants and small shops, there were many people gathered.
At this moment, most of them were smiling brightly. They wanted to talk loudly, but they did not dare to. They could only communicate in low voices...
"Have you heard?"
"Are you saying that the Tang King, Li Qiu, wiped out fifty thousand Turkic cavalry in the Western Regions and then conquered ten cities in Tubo?”
"Who hasn't heard of this? It has already spread throughout Chang 'an!"
"Sigh, speaking of which, this time, it's all thanks to His Highness!”
"Pah, shut up! If your words are heard by the higher-ups, I'm afraid we won't be able to bear the consequences!”
Many people's expressions changed drastically, so that person should not spout nonsense.
However, that person sneered and said disdainfully,"You can't bear the consequences? This was the truth. Why couldn't he let others say it?”
"Is that Jie Li Khan and the Turks easy to deal with? It was said that they had conquered countless cities along the way from the north!”
"The commoners along the way, men and the elderly, were all killed. The women were either defiled or treated as two-legged sheep! Do you know what a two-legged sheep is?"
He laughed coldly. At the same time, his face was filled with fear.
"That's treating people as food like cattle and sheep!!!”
"They even led their troops to the bank of the Wei River, which is only forty miles away from Chang 'an!”
"And what is that 'Emperor' doing? There were only tens of thousands of soldiers in the city, and they were no match for the Turkic cavalry. It was said that he could only bluff and try to scare away Jie Li Khan.”
"But is Jie Li Khagan that easy to deceive?”
"If there's even the slightest mistake, I'm afraid that us commoners will be treated like two-legged sheep. Heh, that's not right. Us old men don't even have the qualifications to be two-legged sheep.”
"As for our wives and daughters, hehehe…"
At this point, everyone's expressions changed. They became extremely ugly. Some people could not help but tremble, while others gritted their teeth...
No one was a fool.
The reason why they didn't say anything was that they were afraid of being punished by the imperial court.
But now that the topic had reached this point, how could they hold it in?
"Indeed, if there's a mistake, it doesn't matter if the person above dies. However, us commoners will also suffer!”
" Sigh, although it's hard to make the people prosperous and hard to make the people perish, it's much better to make the world prosperous than to make the world perish…"
" We really have to thank His Highness Tang. If it weren't for him, I'm afraid we would have become corpses. Our wives and daughters would have become two-legged sheep. Not only would they suffer humiliation, but they would also be treated as food…"
"That's right. This time, we're all relying on His Highness Tang to save us Han people!”
At this moment, no one could hold back the words in their hearts. They had to say it out loud…
Moreover, this scene was not just happening in one place. It was happening all over Chang 'an!
Almost all the commoners had the same thoughts and opinions.
As the news spread, the people of other cities and regions began to believe that Li Qiu had saved the Great Tang and the Han.
This was especially true for the survivors of the Turkic lands in the north. They were even more grateful to Li Qiu and worshipped him like gods!
There were even people who chanted Buddhist scriptures every day to pray for Li Qiu's safety!
As a result, this news naturally could not be hidden from the eyes and ears of the imperial court. Therefore, Li Er soon learned of the news…
……
"Damn it!"
Peng!
Li Er suddenly smashed the glass beside him, anger and murderous intent overflowing from his words.
The palace maids and eunuchs nearby all trembled and kneeled on the ground, not daring to make a sound for fear of getting into trouble.
"Are these commoners all stupid pigs?!”
"If I hadn't risked my life to personally lead the army, how could I have used a bluff to scare off Jie Li Khan and sign the Wei River alliance?!”
"If it wasn't for me working so hard, how could they enjoy a peaceful life?!”
"Li Qiu has only fought a single battle. Even if he is extremely powerful and has outstanding achievements, what good does he do for the Great Tang?!”
"I'm so angry!"
Li Er's eyes were red. If it wasn't for his image, he would have cursed and cursed Li Qiu's eighteen generations of ancestors!
I don't care about the danger. I only have tens of thousands of troops, but I dare to personally lead an expedition and face two hundred thousand Turkic cavalry…
Do you know how dangerous it is? Do you know that if I make the slightest mistake, I will be consigned to eternal damnation?
You don't know, you don't know anything!
But it's fine if you don't know. As the emperor, it's my duty to protect my people.
But it's fine if you don't feel grateful to me, but you all actually went to praise how powerful Li Qiu is. If it wasn't for Li Qiu, so what…
What the f * ck did this have to do with him?
Before the emergency report arrived, we had already signed the alliance at Weishui River!!
Why should this credit be given to Li Qiu?!!
The more Li Er thought about it, the angrier he became. He almost couldn't help but vomit blood!
In his eyes, he had to take a huge risk and work together with many ministers to come up with a way to delay Jie Li Khan and gradually make him agree to sign the alliance at the Wei River…
But what was the result?
The alliance at Weishui River had been signed, but the problem was that Li Qiu had taken all the credit. The commoners were grateful to Li Qiu.
But…
Li Qiu clearly didn't do anything!!!
The danger was borne by me, the solution was thought out by me, and the alliance at Weishui River was signed by me!!!
Why are your people's hearts on Li Qiu's side?？
At this moment, Li Er even wanted to question the people of the world. Do you still have a conscience? What did this matter have to do with him, Li Qiu?？？
Grievance!
Depressed!
Uncomfortable, mushrooms!
Li Erxin was deeply hurt.
It was as if he had worked so hard for many years to finally buy a house, only to suddenly realize that someone else's name was written on the property ownership certificate!!!
"Men!"
After hesitating for a long time and smashing countless things, Li Er finally calmed down and ordered,""Summon Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, and the other important officials to the royal study for a meeting!”
Although he was angry and helpless, problems had to be solved.
Li Er understood the importance of the people's hearts better than anyone else.
Now that the hearts of the people belonged to Li Qiu, he had to think of a way to turn the situation around no matter what. Otherwise, if a war broke out in the future, his people would probably be traitors!
On this day, Li Er summoned the important officials for a meeting late at night. Tonight, he was destined to be sleepless.
