The Death of the Envoy and the Return of the King of Qin
Zhangsun Wuji slowly walked out from the ranks of the civil officials, a smile on his face as he looked at Zhishi Sili.
Zhishi Sili was stunned by Zhangsun Wuji's words.
"Do you really think that your tens of thousands of Turkic soldiers can seriously injure the trump card of our Great Tang?”
"In the past, the Overlord could dominate an army of one hundred thousand with eight hundred men, let alone three thousand white-robed cavalrymen of the Great Tang.”
"Moreover, how do you know that our Great Tang only has this mysterious army?”
"Do you think that a mere Turkic like you can march all the way south to my Chang 'an?”
Zhangsun Wuji walked closer and closer to Zhishi Sili.
The surrounding officials and even Li Shiming couldn't help but want to give Zhangsun Wuji a thumbs up.
This guy's acting skills were at the level of the best actor. If Li Shiming didn't know his own military strength, he would probably believe it.
Zhishi Sili finally sat down next to a pillar, cold sweat pouring down his back.
What did he mean?
The Great Tang had other trump cards?
In Chang 'an?
Could it be that Li Shi Min is really inviting you into a trap and is preparing to destroy the Turks?
Zhishi Sili couldn't help but grow excited. He loudly said,
"Impossible! This is absolutely impossible!"
"You must be lying to me. How can the Great Tang have so many trump cards?”
Zhangsun Wuji continued,
"Although the Central Plains has experienced a change of dynasty, our foundation is not something a puny Turkic like you can shake!”
Li Shiming, who was on the high platform, heard Zhangsun Wuji's words and said in a deep voice,
"In the past, I made an agreement with the Turks to live in peace. Today, the Turks have deployed their troops under Chang 'an City. Since you have gone back on your word, I will let you see if you can take Chang' an City!”
Li Shimin stood up and waved his sleeves,
"Men, kill this Turkic dog!”
Soon after, two black-armored soldiers entered the hall and dragged Zhishi Sili out.
The dragged Zhishi Sili panicked and hurriedly said,
"When two armies fight, you don't kill the envoys. Isn't your Great Tang known as a country of etiquette?”
Zhishi Sili's heart was filled with regret. If he had known earlier, he would not have accepted this damnable mission. He had thought it would be so easy, but he had actually lost his life.
"A country of etiquette is only for humans. You Turks are nothing more than a pack of wolves that can't be fed, a pack of beasts!”
Li Shiming coldly harrumphed.
As Zhishi Sili was dragged away, the atmosphere in Taiji Palace once again became heavy.
Without the Turkic envoy, there was naturally no need for them to continue acting.
As a result, the court officials fell into deep thought as they faced the two hundred thousand Turkic soldiers on the bank of the Wei River.
Looking at the court officials below the stage, Li Shiming couldn't help but shake his head.
That white-robed cavalry dared to attack tens of thousands of Turkic cavalry with three thousand men and save the Youzhou people.
As the ruler of the Great Tang, what reason could he have to yield without a fight?
Li Shi Min slowly walked into Taiji Palace, leaving behind a group of officials who looked at each other in dismay.
"Your Majesty, what's going on?"
"Has court started?"
"Why did His Majesty suddenly leave?"
On the other hand, Zhangsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, and the others remained silent.
After all, the pressure on Li Shiming was too great. He had just ascended the throne and was facing such a predicament.
Just as everyone was discussing Li Shiming's sudden departure, Li Shiming walked out again.
Seeing Li Shi Min come out again, the officials present couldn't help but be stunned.
At this moment, Li Shi Min was already dressed in a dragon robe, but he had changed into the Mingguang Armor that he had not worn for a long time.
He held a three-foot-long sword in his hand and looked like a general.
"Everyone, today, 200,000 Turkic troops are stationed at Chang 'an City. Would you like to follow me to the Wei River?”
Li Shi Min looked at the shocked crowd and said with a smile.
The audience couldn't help but look at each other.
Then, everyone could not help but say in unison,
"We are willing to go through fire and water with Your Majesty!”
"Good, good, good…"
Li Shimin couldn't help but laugh when he saw the officials 'expressions.
With such courtiers and righteous men like the white-robed cavalrymen, there is no need to worry about the Turks being destroyed or Chang 'an being threatened.
As long as that white robed cavalry was still around, Jie Li Khagan would inevitably be wary.
Even with the two hundred thousand Turkic soldiers on the bank of the Wei River, our Great Tang still has a glimmer of hope.
Thinking about this, Li Shiming looked at the two officials below the stage,
"Apothecary! Li Junxian! You two gather all the troops in Chang 'an City and prepare to fight!”
"This time, I want to personally lead the army!”
"I will make Jie Li Khagan regret coming south this time. I will make them pay the price!”
Looking at Li Shimin, the old ministers of King Qin's Mansion couldn't help but recall the scenes of him following the King of Qin on his conquests.
Everyone could not help but smile in relief.
The former King of Qin, Li Shi Min, had returned!
