Li Shimin was very angry when he thought of this.
Thinking back to what happened back then, although many years had passed, it still felt like it was still in front of him.
Back then, the Duke of Zhao, Zhangsun Wuji, had asked him to marry Changle, wanting Changle to marry Zhangsun Chong.
He thought that Duke Zhao was his right-hand man and a meritorious minister of the Great Tang, so he couldn't reject him. Moreover, the Empress, Zhangsun Wugou, was blowing wind beside him.
Li Shimin then issued an edict, deciding to let Changle marry into the Duke of Zhao's mansion.
He never thought that…
After hearing this news, the girl, Chang Le, who was always gentle and easy-going, was extremely angry. She actually dared to quarrel with him in the inner hall of Taiji Palace.
Then, she secretly escaped from the palace.
He was still missing.
Counting carefully, it had actually been seven years since he left!
When Li Shi Min heard the news that Chang Le had left the palace, he frowned and sneered.
Chang 'an City of the Tang Empire was under his control.
In the bright place there are guards of Jinwu patrolling the streets,
There were his Shadow Guards in the dark.
Where could Chang Le escape to?
Escape?
They could find and capture him within a day.
however
Not to mention half a day.
Three days passed.
The Golden Guards patrolling the streets did not find anything, or more accurately, they did not even find a trace.
Three days later…
The Shadow Guards had sent news that Princess Chang Le had been taken away by an unfamiliar man.
The reason why he said 'unfamiliar' was because this person rarely showed his face. No one remembered what he looked like. They only knew that this person was about sixteen or seventeen years old, and then there was nothing else.
In the end, Li Shimin searched the Ministry of Revenue's register but could not find out the person's name or whereabouts.
It was as if it had appeared out of thin air and disappeared into thin air.
And since then, his daughter had disappeared without a trace.
In the blink of an eye, seven years had passed.
In these seven years, he had never given up on looking for his daughter.
Of course, although he was surprisingly angry. However, he also felt a trace of regret in his heart. If he hadn't forced Chang Le to marry Zhangsun Chong, Chang Le wouldn't have left in a fit of anger, and such a thing wouldn't have happened.
Every time he thought about it, Li Shi Min couldn't help but sigh.
Thus, Li Shimin had traveled incognito many times over the years, almost to every corner of the Great Tang.
First, he could go deep into the people, understand the people's feelings, understand the sufferings of the people, and thus facilitate governance.
The second reason was to use this opportunity to find traces of Chang Le.
This time, he came to the River State for these two matters.
There were three people following Li Shi Min, one was Duke of Lu Cheng Yaojin, one was Duke of E Yuchi Gong, and the last was Duke of Liang Fang Xuanling.
In order to pass through the mountain road smoothly, the four of them disguised themselves as bandits.
Fang Xuanling came up to Li Shiming and whispered,"Your Majesty, this River Prefecture is located on the border between our Great Tang and Tubo. Bandits are rampant and it is extremely unstable.”
Hearing his words,
Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Gong couldn't help but look around cautiously.
The two of them were from the army, so they were not afraid of the bandits in the nearby forest. The main thing was that they could not cause trouble. After all, Li Shi Min was with them.
Li Shiming's safety was the most important thing.
"Sigh!"
Li Shi Min frowned and sighed.
"This Hezhou is the territory of the Great Tang, but it is often harassed by the Tubo people. The people of Hezhou cannot live and work in peace. I am the Emperor of the Great Tang, and in the end, it is my fault.”
Li Shimin couldn't bear to see this. He had been to the prosperous places of Jiangnan in disguise. Now that he was at the border of Hezhou, the stark contrast of seeing corpses on the road made his heart ache.
" Your Majesty is a wise ruler. We will return to Chang 'an City after this visit in disguise.”
"Only when we have sufficient troops and food can we use our troops to defeat the Tubo army! He wanted to take back the lost land of River Prefecture and let the people of River Prefecture live a carefree life.”Fang Xuanling advised.
"Yes!"
"At that time, I, Old Cheng, will be the vanguard for His Majesty and kill those sons of bitches!”
"And I, Yuchi Gong, Your Majesty. I, Yuchi Gong, swear to help Your Majesty defeat these Tubo people and reclaim the lost land of River Prefecture!”
Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Gong bowed in unison.
"Good!"
Li Shi Min's ambition rose again, and the majesty of an emperor appeared on his body.
But at this moment,
Suddenly, the sound of hooves rang out.
The four of them were stunned at first. They looked in the direction of the voice and saw that there was a voice in front of them. Then, their expressions changed drastically.
"Tubo people," Fang Xuanling whispered,"why would hundreds of cavalry appear here?"”
"Don't think about useless things now. Protect His Majesty first!”
Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Gong looked at each other, then pulled out their long swords and held them tightly in their hands, protecting Li Shiming in the middle.
Wherever the long saber pointed, the enemy was coming!
......
......
In the forest,
Not far from Li Shi Min's flank.
A seven-year-old girl was sitting in a heroic posture, holding a bow in her hand, her eyes fixed on Li Shi Min and the other three.
Looking at the four of them dressed like bandits, he blinked and said,"This young lady is a bandit who robbed bandits. Quickly finish this job and go back to find father to take credit.”
However, just as she finished speaking, the neighing of a warhorse suddenly sounded in the forest.
Then, she saw hundreds of Tibetans riding over.
Seeing this scene,
The little girl frowned and said,"Tibetan."
