Zhou De, Minister of Dali Temple.
Although this person was not smart enough, he was a very serious and responsible person when handling cases.
He was well-deserving of the position of the Supreme Court Official.
But today, on his way to the palace to report, the madman actually shot him to death!
His life and death were unknown!
Li Yu's expression was gloomy." Why was Lord Zhou injured?!”
The main road in front of them was a bustling one, and the patrolling soldiers were constantly patrolling!
The soldier knelt on one knee and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"Due to the urgency of the situation, Lord Zhou rode alone to the Imperial Palace.”
"According to the direction of the shooting, we went to search immediately and did not leave any traces. It should have been arranged in advance!”
The soldier gulped. Who would have thought that the thief would be so bold!
Li Lange's expression changed drastically," This…they are really too arrogant!”
"This is the foot of the Imperial City!"
Princess Ping Yang clenched her fists so hard that they made cracking sounds. It was obvious that she was extremely furious!
She was a female general of the Tang Empire, so how could she endure this grievance?
Li Yu lifted his feet and walked out!
At this moment, a wounded soldier rushed over and knelt down.
"Milord, bad news!"
"We were ambushed on the way to the Supreme Court!”
"Including Li Yi, 20 people died on the spot!”
Hiss,
He killed Li Yi in one go!
Li Lange couldn't help but tremble.
"Who is it?!"
"What are they trying to do?!”
Li Yu lowered his head and looked at the soldiers." Go and ask for an edict to send more soldiers!”
He looked very unhappy now!
His tone was cold.
"What are they trying to do?"
"Of course it's for the grain and military pay!”
Li Yu snorted lightly and said,
"First, kill Lord Zhou to delay the time to report to the palace. Then, kill Li Yi to attract everyone's attention.”
Unhappy! Extremely unhappy!
He had been schemed against!
They actually dared to attack Zhou De so brazenly and kill the group of people escorting the prisoners from the Supreme Court!
"Li Lange, lead the way to the place where the rations and military pay are stored!”
Li Lan Ge nodded and followed Li Yu with Princess Ping Yang,
He lifted his feet and walked out!
The three of them led three horses to Drunken Sky Restaurant and immediately rode them to their destination!
On the horse's back, Li Lan Ge was dressed in a fluttering red robe and held a long spear in his hand.
"After His Majesty allocated the rations and military pay, they were ready to be transported to the border.”
"This is the first time that my sworn brother and I have taken on such a great responsibility.”
"In these few days, we will prepare to set off. The rations and military pay will be stored in the southern warehouse!”
"It's guarded by the royal soldiers!"
"Even my Li family army is not allowed to enter or leave except when we set off!”
Li Yu hummed in agreement.
"How much rations and military pay have been allocated this time?”
Li Lan Ge narrowed her eyes as she looked at Li Yu. After hesitating for a moment, she said,
"On the surface, it's 10,000 dan of rations and 100,000 taels of military pay!”
"In fact, it's a hundred thousand dan of rations and three hundred thousand liang of military pay!”
This was a secret!
It was an important task entrusted to the Li family's army by His Majesty!
It was also one of the reasons why they had not left the capital for the border after almost a month!
First, wait for the rations and military pay in the dark to expire!
Secondly, the two of them were just chess pieces. Li Jing brought a heavy army to protect them, and the real escort was their father, Li Jing!
Therefore, the two siblings would never fight among themselves!
Princess Ping Yang's eyes widened in shock.
His Imperial Brother had transported so much grain and military pay to the border…
Li Yu looked up.
"Your Majesty, are you preparing for war?"
"Are these provisions and salaries being transported to the front lines to attack the Turks?”
The Battle of Weishui River in history was Li Shiming's greatest humiliation!
Now that he had secured the throne, he would definitely wipe away the humiliation from back then!
Li Lange's eyes widened as she stared at Li Yu, her heart thumping wildly.
"You…"
"Fortunately, you are a member of the Great Tang! Otherwise, you will be a threat to our Great Tang!”
Li Yu was too terrifying!
She had guessed the Emperor's secret thoughts with just one sentence!
They even knew who they were attacking!
Li Yu's lips twitched as he smiled.
They had already arrived at the place where the rations and military pay were stored!
The surroundings were heavily guarded!
Li Lange heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that the surroundings were as usual.
However, Li Yu's expression was still solemn, not slowing down at all!
"I am from the Great Tang."
"But that doesn't mean that others are the same."
"Someone in the court has rebelled. Let's go in and take a look at the rations and military pay first!”
Li Lange scratched her head in confusion.
"But there's nothing unusual here. What are we going to see?”
Li Yu stood with his hands behind his back and looked at the situation before him. He trusted his intuition.
"They did not hesitate to kill Lord Zhou and kill Li Yi. They also wanted to stall for time.”
"It's impossible that there's nothing unusual!”
Li Lange pursed her lips and looked at Li Yu." I believe you!”
Li Yu's series of judgments were all correct. She believed him!
"In that case, let's go in and take a look!”
Li Yu's waist token had been given to Di Renjie, but Li Lange was still holding the waist token that Li Jing had left for her when he left the capital!
All of the soldiers knew Li Lan Ge and had also heard of Li Yu, who had recently gained the Emperor's trust. They were allowed to enter after the inspection!
The warehouse was sealed in all directions!
There were tightly shut boxes piled up inside!
At the rear, they used bags of rations!
Li Lange looked at the things in the storeroom and heaved a sigh of relief.
"Fortunately, everything is here!”
"Did they not make their move in time?”
She had come here with her father once, and she could tell that there were no surprises!
Li Yu narrowed his eyes and looked at the pile of things in front of him before walking forward!
He stepped on the ground, and the thumping sounds made him frown slightly.
It shouldn't be!
It shouldn't be like this!
If all the provisions and military pay were not reduced,
What was their goal in killing Zhou De and robbing the Supreme Court's army that was holding Li Yi?
Too late to act?
Impossible!
If they couldn't finish their actions in a short period of time, their actions just now would become meaningless!
If Li Shiming was angered by such a huge commotion, he would be able to turn the entire Imperial City upside down.
They would have nowhere to hide!
The person who planned it would not do such a thing!
Outside, there was a loud shout!
"His Majesty has arrived! Prince Zhao has arrived!"
