"The Helu tribe is the closest tribe to the Turkic kingdom. Their leader Ashina Helu is famous for his ferocity and has repeatedly harassed our Youzhou territory.”
"This old man spared no expense in building this stone city in the Turkic heartland. My ultimate goal was to annihilate the damned Helu tribe in one fell swoop!”
"But I didn't think that Lin Lie would actually kill the entire Turkic Helu tribe?”
His eyes were fixed on the second military report from Stone City, and he didn't even notice the beard that had been pulled out of his hand.
"That's right!"
"The military report clearly stated that the Turkic Helu tribe had a total of thirty thousand men, women, old, and young, all of whom were killed by Lin Lie!”
"Right now, in front of Stone City, there's an additional bump, and on it is a stone tablet inscribed with the words 'Land of the Killers of the Turkic Helu Tribes'.”
"Good boy, good boy!"
Li Jing, the Governor of Youzhou, murmured. His eyes flickered with surprise and joy as he said,"I didn't misjudge you, I really didn't misjudge you. This time, I've picked up a treasure from Bing Province.”
"Hmph!"
"This time, the Governor of Bing Province, Zhang Gongjin, will probably be so angry that he will stomp his feet, right? He had lost a valiant general!”
"Hahahaha!"
The more he thought about it, the happier he became. He held the two military reports in his hands and paced back and forth in the study. From time to time, he would take a look at them. His heart was filled with joy.
After a long time,
He seemed to have thought of something and came back to his senses."Lin Lie is risking his life for the sake of military merits. Back then in the City Amongst the Clouds, he and Chai Xueyu had a private marriage agreement. This old man still needs to quickly ask for merit for him.”
As he spoke,
He sat in front of the study and quickly wrote.
A moment later, he shouted,""Men, hurry up and report this border pass to His Majesty.”
......
......
Chang 'an City, Tang Empire, Chongren Lane.
In State Duke Qiao Chai Shao's mansion, a furious voice came from the inner courtyard."Xue Yu, you actually made a private engagement with an unknown general at the border?”
"You!"
"If your father didn't hear about it from an old friend in the army, how long would you have hidden it from me?”
"Chai Xueyu, don't you know that you're the princess of the Great Tang? How would your father live in Chang 'an City if he had a private engagement with a border general?”
In the inner courtyard,
When the servants on both sides saw their Duke's thunderous rage, they were so frightened that their faces had long turned pale. They lowered their heads and did not dare to speak.
Only the princess of the Tang Empire, Chai Xueyu, was sitting in the courtyard in a purple muslin dress.
Her slender jade-like fingers slowly put down a delicate flower in her hand. Hearing Chai Shao's words, she suddenly raised her head.
Raising her fair, swan-like neck, her beautiful face was filled with determination as she said,"Father, Lin Lie is not an unknown general. He is now a loyal general under the command of Li Jing, the governor of Youzhou. He is a fourth-rank general of the imperial court!”
"As for Father, you mentioned that your daughter is a noble princess of the Tang Empire."
She suddenly smiled like a hundred flowers blooming and said in a daze,"Father, let me tell you, one day, he will grow into a famous general that will shake the Great Tang and be as noble as us!”
"As noble as us?"
"He's just a small fourth-grade military officer. He doesn't even have two lords on him."
Chai Shao could not help but sneer when he heard this. He said angrily,"However, you're just a general, born into a poor family in the border. You want to become one of the Great Tang's generals? Don't even think about it!"
"Chai Xueyu, oh Chai Xueyu!"
"You wanted to be like your mother and become a female general who shook the world. Although your father stopped you, I also agreed to let you go to the border to experience it."
"But?"
"Hmm? You actually made a private engagement with this general named Lin Lie at the border. Is this how you repay your father?”
"Father!"
When she heard this, she faced Chai Shao's furious and dark face and said with a determined expression,"Don't say anything else. Since I've already privately agreed to marry Lin Lie, I won't marry anyone else in this life!”
As he spoke,
Chai Xue Yu's pretty face suddenly became extremely gentle as she continued,"
I will wait for him to marry me in Chang 'an."
Seeing his daughter like this,
Chai Shao was even more furious. He was so angry that he suddenly raised his palm and was about to hit Chai Xueyu. However, he seemed to have thought of something and finally let out a long sigh. He turned around and left angrily. He said in a low voice,"Chai Xueyu, are you possessed?”
"As the princess of the Great Tang, how can you privately decide your life?"
"Chai Xueyu, your father can't bear to hit you!”
"I'll make a trip to the palace now and ask His Majesty to issue an edict to punish this loyal general called Lin Lie!”
