The night is getting late
Li Er and Zhangsun Wuji were locked in prison.
After a tiring day, they felt sore all over, but at this moment, they were not sleepy at all.
He had the highest chance of being rescued, but he didn't expect that there would be no follow-up.
"Do I really have to stay in this godforsaken place for seven days?”
At this moment, Li Er also understood that if he wanted to get out of here, he could only wait until his sentence was over and he was released.
"Your Majesty…"
At this moment, a voice sounded in their ears.
Li Er didn't even think before throwing a punch.
"Your Majesty, it's me, Li Junxian!"
Li Junxian felt very wronged. Every time he appeared, he would be beaten up.
"Junxian, you came at the right time. Tell me, have you found reinforcements?”
Li Er's eyes were filled with hope.
" We did find him, but His Majesty was chased away by the commoners of Qingshui County. I don't know what went wrong with them, but they were so protective of that dog official. When they heard that we were here to capture the county magistrate, they fought with us to the death…"
Li Junxian gloomily said.
"There were no casualties, right?" Li Er asked worriedly.
" No, I let them smash it with their scabbards. Unfortunately, there were too many commoners and I was eventually chased out of Qingshui County…"
Li Junxian's words caused Li Er to fall into deep thought.
"Where did this dog official get his popularity from?"
"There must be something going on!"
Li Er was even more certain that this small Qingshui County must be hiding something.
"Ancestors, what do you think?"
Li Er looked at Zhangsun Wuji.
"Your Majesty, there's only one explanation for this matter. That dog official must've implemented a law of joint punishment. If the Magistrate is in trouble, their families will also be harmed by Qingshui County's bailiffs. Therefore, they just want to protect themselves."
Zhangsun Wuji's deduction made Li Er nod.
"Junxian, let's put this matter aside for the time being. Gather evidence of that dog official's crimes for me in the next few days. I will stay here for another two days. After I leave, I will send troops to deal with this dog official.”Li Er said lightly.
"Your Majesty, how can you be wronged here? Why don't you let me bring His Majesty out?"
Li Junxian immediately panicked.
"How? The security outside is tight. If you bring it with you, can I still go out?”
Li Er rolled his eyes at him.
"Even if I have to risk my life, I have to save His Majesty!”
Li Junxian said resolutely.
"Silly, you're the one who's putting His Majesty's safety at risk. What if you get shot when you break into the prison? I and His Majesty only need to stay here for two days before we can be released.”
Zhangsun Wuji's words woke Li Junxian up.
"Alright, be quiet. Don't attract the jailers! Did the Imperial Court send any news?”
Li Er asked.
"Your Majesty, if you hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten. The Imperial Court has sent good news. Tuli has sent a secret letter, and he is willing to cooperate with the Great Tang to deal with the Jie Li Khagan!”
"This is a secret letter from Minister of War Du Ruhui!”
Li Junxian took out two secret letters.
"That's great. Let me take a look!"
Li Er quickly snatched the letter from Li Junxian.
"This is a heaven-sent opportunity! Jie Li Khan, zhen has long wanted to deal with him. This humiliation, zhen can finally wash it off!”
Ever since Li Er ascended the throne, his desire to eliminate the Eastern Turks had never changed.
Not only him, but all the officials of the Great Tang were the same.
The great Great Tang had actually been invaded by Jie Li, who had not only taken away all the treasures in the treasury but had also been forced to pay tribute to the Eastern Turks every year.
To Li Er, this was a great humiliation.
"Ancestors, what do you think?”
"Your Majesty, I also think this is a good opportunity!”
Zhangsun Wuji nodded.
"Mm, I will discuss this matter with you all after I return!”
Li Er was somewhat eager to return and settle this old score with the Eastern Turks.
.......
The next morning.
Ling Feng was lying in a rocking chair under the grape rack in the courtyard, enjoying the fruits that the maid would feed him from time to time.
Li Er and Zhangsun Wuji were cleaning the courtyard.
"Little Feng Feng, there were many yamen who came to cause trouble yesterday. Should we take revenge?”Princess Changle said as she massaged Ling Feng.
"I have long guessed it…" Ling Feng smiled.
" Hehe." Li Er laughed when he heard this. He really knew how to say it. Did he think he was a god? Had guessed it long ago?
"What are you laughing at?" Princess Changle was dissatisfied.
"He's laughing. I've already guessed it." Ling Feng said with a smile.
"You lie down every day and you know what's going on in the world?”
Li Er and Zhangsun Wuji obviously didn't believe it.
"If you really are so powerful, then I would like to ask what you think of Tuli's plan to surrender to the Great Tang and work with the Great Tang to deal with the Turks.”
