At this moment.
Li Shimin panicked, Fang Xuanling panicked, and Du Ruhui panicked.
Everyone in the room was in a state of panic.
It was as if a terrifying killing intent was about to descend upon the Tang Dynasty.
"Men!"
Li Shi Min shouted.
Upon hearing the shout, the Golden Guard Great General Qin Qiong immediately ran into the hall.
"Qin Qiong, immediately mobilize the capital's Golden Guards to leave the city and investigate every relay station. You must find traces of Chen An for me. "Also…" At this moment, Li Shi Min's face became extremely cold, and his heart was filled with endless killing intent.
"In addition, send troops to the Chen Residence and capture everyone in the Chen Residence.”
What?
Everyone was shocked.
Qin Qiong was stunned.
The nine ministers were also stunned.
Was Tian Zi going to exterminate the entire Chen family in advance?
"No, Your Majesty. You mustn't!"
Fang Xuanling hurriedly ran out and shouted.
"Your Majesty, the Chen Clan only has the Chen Clan and Chen An. Chen An has already disappeared. No matter how we capture him, we can only capture Miss Chen at most. Miss Chen was just a civilian woman who knew nothing.”
Du Ruhui hurriedly advised.
"Yes, Your Majesty. Please reconsider, Your Majesty!"
"Please reconsider, Your Majesty!"
"Please reconsider, Your Majesty!"
……
The nine ministers began to advise.
They were not " afraid " of Chen An, but worried about Tian Zi's reputation. Now, Yanmen Pass was already on fire, and the whole world was "watching" how the new emperor would deal with it.
If the news of the emperor's execution of the entire Chen family was released at this time, the reputation of the royal family would be completely ruined.
Moreover, Chen An was still a child who had just turned seven this year.
Since ancient times, no matter how cruel the king was, there was no precedent of killing a child.
Not to mention the rulers of the Central Plains, even the Xiongnu of the Han Dynasty and the Turks of the Sui and Tang Dynasties had invaded the south and slaughtered the Central Plains until blood flowed like rivers.
Countless Central Plains citizens died.
However, this did not include the children.
The war between two countries in ancient times was the cruelest, but there was an unwritten rule.
That is, those who are higher than the wheels of the chariot will be beheaded.
The meaning of this sentence was that children who were not taller than the wheels could not be killed.
"Your Majesty, Chen An is only three feet tall now, not even as tall as a wheel.”
Zhangsun Wuji also spoke, reminding his "brother-in-law Tian Zi".
"Yes, Your Majesty. Even when the Turks invaded the south, they wouldn't kill the children of the Central Plains, but instead kidnap them and raise them. Now that His Majesty wanted to exterminate the entire Chen family, how would the world view this matter?”
"Your Majesty, we can't do this. Defending the mouth of the people is better than defending the river."
"Your Majesty, didn't you say it yourself?'The people are the most important, the country is second, and the monarch is light' such words!”
The sound of advice rang in Li Shi Min's ears continuously.
At this moment.
Li Shi Min opened his mouth but eventually gave up on his previous plan.
"Order the Golden Guards to seal off the Chen Residence. No one is allowed to enter or leave!”
His entire family was executed, and it was changed to " imprisonment."
Hearing this new order, Qin Qiong immediately lowered his head and agreed. Then, he quickly left the palace to handle some matters.
……
Countless Golden Guards charged into Vermilion Bird Street and surrounded the Chen Manor.
Everyone in the Chen Residence was panic-stricken.
"Why, why did the emperor imprison this woman?”
Miss Chen wailed loudly, endless fear surging in her heart.
"Chen An faked the imperial edict, peeked at the official documents of the Ministry of War, and even threatened the princess…His Majesty was furious and ordered me to seal off the Chen Residence.”Qin Qiong replied in a deep voice.
As soon as the three major crimes were announced, Miss Chen collapsed on the spot.
It's over, it's over, the Chen family is finished!
My Anan, what are you doing?
……
On every official road leading to the outside world, countless Golden Guards were galloping on their horses.
Every time they arrived at a relay station, someone would dismount and ask.
Finally.
The Golden Guards found out.
"Your Majesty, General Qin has found traces of Chen An!”
As soon as these words were said, the monarch and his subjects were overjoyed.
"Where? Where did he go?" Li Shi Min asked anxiously.
" Your Majesty, Chen An went to the northwest border. There are many courier stations in the northwest that prove that Chen An was there. Including Chen An, there were eight of them. On average, they change horses once a day."
Zhangsun Wuji and the others immediately calculated the time.
After a moment, the results were out.
"Your Majesty, if my guess is correct. Chen An should have gone to Hexi Road!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the entire place instantly fell silent.
That's right, Hexi!
When the little guy was in Chang 'an, he kept saying," Yanmen Pass was a feint, while the main force of the Turks was attacking the west of the river.
Heavens!
He actually went to the west of the river, he actually went to the front line.
How dare the little fellow do this?
He was only seven years old this year and was still a child!
At this moment.
A complicated feeling rose in the hearts of the Great Tang officials.
According to the crime, Chen An really should be killed.
However, a seven-year-old child had personally gone to the West River Path for the sake of the country and to prove his conjecture.
If the main force of the Turks were to attack Hexi, that place would become a battlefield!
"How did this happen? How did this happen?"
Li Shi Min muttered to himself.
He couldn't believe it.
In his heart, Li Shiming had always thought that this hateful little fellow was here to cause trouble in the royal court. However, the reality was…
Little Baby went to the border as a child.
Regardless of whether he had the ability or not, just this intention was enough to prove that this child had no intention of rebelling.
After all…
"This is for the sake of our Li Consortium!”Li Shi Min muttered to himself.
Hearing this, Fang Xuanling and the others fell silent.
Unfortunately, the emperors and courtiers of the Great Tang were wrong, gravely mistaken.
Chen An personally went to the west of the river not for the Li family's territory, but for the people of the world and for the inheritance of China.
There is a gorgeous chapter of beauty, called Hua;
There is a great etiquette, called Xia.
If anyone dared to bully China, Baby would chop them to death…
Wakaka!
……
A moment later.
In the silence, Li Shi Min came back to his senses and ordered,""Summon the Hexi Regional Governor and order him to strictly defend. Also, find Chen An for me and send him back. If Chen An doesn't leave, kidnap him and bring him back!”
"Here!"
The messenger from the palace immediately set off, carrying the emperor's holy will and rushing to the west of the river day and night.
Unfortunately, it was too late now.
On the vast grassland.
The endless army was galloping, and the world was shaking.
They were getting closer and closer to the west of the river.
Suzhou Prefecture Army Camp.
"Pass on my orders: beat the drums and raise the generals!”
Dong-Dong-Dong-
Dull drumbeats continued to ring out, shaking the entire military camp.
Hearing the drumbeats, the generals of the eight prefectures in the west of the river rushed over and quickly walked into the commander's tent.
When they walked in, they realized:
A child sat in the main seat of the commander's tent, and the former Hexi Regional Governor sat in the child's deputy seat.
This, this…
What was going on? What happened? Who was this little guy?
Under the puzzled gazes of the generals, the young voice of a child sounded solemnly,""My name is Chen An!"
What was that? Chen An?
The moment this name came out, all the generals were collectively shocked.
This child was a world-renowned prodigy and poet saint of the Tang Empire. He was also the only " Three Yuan and First Scholar " in the history of China.
What was he doing in Hexi?
"I am the Prime Minister of the Great Tang. The Turks have recently gone south to the Central Plains. I was ordered by the emperor to be the general manager of Hexi Road and in charge of the military and political affairs of the eight states in Hexi. Whoever dares to disobey will be killed without mercy!"
The childish voice carried endless killing intent as it swept through the commander's tent.
As soon as he said that, everyone looked at the Hexi Regional Governor.
Sensing the gazes of the generals, the West River Regional Governor nodded slightly, indicating that this matter was true.
The generals immediately clenched their fists and bowed their heads.
"Greetings, Minister An!”
"Please get up and sit!"
"Thank you, Minister An!"
Everyone took their seats.
