"Zhao Keman, Hu Ying, Wu Gou, Shuang Xueming. The silver saddle shone on the white horse, rustling like a meteor. Kill a person every ten steps, leave no trace for a thousand miles. When things are done, brush your clothes and leave. Hide your achievements and fame…"
Li Xiu 'er recited Li Bai's " Journey of Chivalrous Men " while brandishing her sword, she moved freely and began to kill.
Outside the ancient Urban area, there were many unruly people in the barren mountains and rivers. The inconvenience of transportation led to thieves running amok. In the later generation, Li Bai could travel the world alone with a sword for decades. His swordsmanship was definitely not comparable to ordinary people!
It might be difficult to kill a few hundred people in one battle, but it was more than enough to deal with dozens of people.
Li Xiu 'er relied on Li Bai's swordsmanship to kill more than a dozen assassins.
The two female assassins were also skilled in martial arts. After exchanging a few moves with Li Xiu 'er, they fell into a disadvantageous position. They shouted twice and retreated, pulling away from Li Xiu' er.
Li Shiming and Zhangsun Wuji had planned to run away, but when they saw Li Xiu-Er's power, they were shocked and stopped temporarily.
Li Shimin recited Li Xiu 'er's' Journey of the Chivalrous Swordsman', and his tiger eyes suddenly burst out with a brilliant light.
"This poem is so heroic and murderous that it can shake the heavens. It completely shows the heroic spirit of a hero who looks down on the world and acts alone! Even if an ordinary person exhausted their entire life, they would not be able to compose such an outstanding poem! Only when one's talent, passion, and state of mind had reached an extremely high level could one do so! Xiu-Er must be a dragon among men to be able to write this poem. She is indeed my long-lost child!”Li Shimin twirled his beard and praised.
Da da…
The sound of galloping horses could be heard. Hou Junji, who had been patrolling nearby, led several hundred soldiers of the Flying Tigers over.
Seeing that they couldn't assassinate Li Shi Min today, the two masked girls stomped their feet in anger.
They had brought dozens of men of sacrifice, but Li Xiu 'er had blocked them all by herself, and more than half of them had been killed.
"Retreat!" The older girl in black shouted and turned to leave.
However, the other girl in black did not retreat immediately. Instead, she pulled her bow and shot an arrow at Li Shiming.
Li Shi Min was caught off guard and was immediately shot in the thigh. He screamed and fell to the ground. Zhangsun Wuji hurriedly pounced on him and used his body to protect him.
During the coup of Xuanwu Sect, Li Shimin and Li Yuanji were almost killed in a one-on-one fight. They suffered some internal injuries and had not recovered for a long time. It was likely that they would not be able to lead the army personally from then on.
His reaction was a little slower, which caused him to be injured by the arrow.
"Li Shi Min was shot! Sister, let's go up and kill him!" The girl holding the bow was so excited that she almost jumped up.
"The Flying Tigers Army is here. We can't stay here for long. It won't be too late to kill Li Shi Min another day!" Another girl said as she pulled her arm and jumped into the nearby street. Soon, they disappeared.
As for the remaining men of sacrifice who were still fighting with Li Xiu 'er, they couldn't care less.
Hou Junji had led a group of Flying Tigers over. Seeing Li Shimin fall to the ground with Zhangsun Wuji taking care of him, he immediately jumped off his horse.
"I came late to save you. Please forgive me, Your Majesty!”Hou Junji shouted as he got down on one knee.
" Cough cough cough…" Li Shiming coughed and sat up, his face pale.
He grabbed the arrow and pulled it out with a loud cry. Black blood spurted out.
"The arrow is poisoned!" "Your Majesty, let's hurry back to the palace and let the imperial physician treat us!" Zhangsun Wuji was shocked.”
"Wait a minute!" Li Shi Min waved his hand and turned to look at Li Xiu Er.
At this moment, Li Xiu 'er had killed all the assassins in black. Her sword and clothes were stained with blood.
"Father, your son has killed all the assassins!"Are you…alright?" Li Xiu Er walked over and asked.
Looking at Li Xiu 'er, whose clothes were stained with blood, and thinking of Li Chengqian, Li Ke, Li Tai, and the others who had lived in a greenhouse in the Imperial Palace without outstanding civil and military talents, Li Shimin couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
Like father, like son. He could only use it on Li Xiu 'er!
As for Li Chengqian, Li Ke, and Li Tai, none of them are like me!
"Are you still calling me father at a time like this? Xiu-Er, you should call me father!" Li Shi Min smiled and said kindly.
Li Xiu 'er's heart pounded.
After pretending to hesitate for a moment, Li Xiu 'er shouted,""Father!"
Hou Junji stood next to him, a look of confusion on his face.
Since when did Li Shiming have such a big son?
This was the eldest son of the royal family!
Although he couldn't compare to Li Chengqian and Li Tai, his status was naturally extraordinary!
Li Xiu 'er was the eldest grandson of Li Yuan, the founding emperor of this dynasty!
Li Shimin was overjoyed when he heard the word 'father'.
"Alright! Clean up your stall, let's go back to the palace!”Li Shi Min said.
Ordinary folk doctors would definitely not be able to treat a poisoned arrow quickly. Only experienced imperial physicians with sufficient medicinal herbs in the palace could do it.
"Here!" Li Xiu 'er, Zhangsun Wuji, Hou Junji, and the Flying Tigers all clasped hands and nodded.
After returning to the Imperial Palace, under the meticulous care of the imperial physician, the poisonous blood on Li Shiming's thigh was quickly released and bandaged. He would recover completely in half a month at most.
Inside Xiande Hall of Taiji Palace.
Li Shimin wore a twelve-combed crown and sat on the dragon chair. On his left and right were palace maids and eunuchs, and below him were Zhangsun Wuji, Gao Shilian, Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, Yuchi Gong, Feng Deyi, Gongsun Wuda, Li Jing, and other civil and military officials.
Li Xiu Er stood on the right side of Li Shi Min.
This was the position of a Prince of the Imperial Court!
Standing in the hall, looking at the golden ceiling and the well-equipped, well-trained, and powerful Royal Guards, Li Xiu 'er was overwhelmed with emotions.
Becoming the eldest son of the Great Tang Empire just by bluffing was too awesome!
Li Er, in the future, if you find out that I'm not related to you by blood at all, will you die of anger?
Hahahahaha…
Father?
You should call me Imperial Father!
"Beloved ministers, I was assassinated by the remnants of the former Crown Prince and King Qi on Vermilion Bird Avenue today. Fortunately, my long-lost eldest son, Xiu 'er, saved me. Otherwise, I wouldn't be sitting here! According to the merit of the reward, I have decided to pursue the posthumous title of Wang Xiuer's mother Wang Qinglian as the Empress of Shengci Xiande, and the eldest son of the emperor, Wang Xiuer, as the King of Heluo! Xiu-Er, did you hear that?" Li Shi Min smiled.
Li Xiu Er hurried to the center of the hall and bowed to Li Shi Min, shouting,"Thank you, Imperial Father! Long live my father! Emperor Father's literary achievements and martial arts virtues spread across the world. He enjoyed immortal blessings forever and lived as long as the heavens!”
All the ministers were in a daze, unable to believe that Li Shimin had suddenly become the eldest son of a concubine.
However, after hearing the results of the blood test, they lost their temper and reluctantly believed it.
"Your Majesty is wise! Long live Your Majesty!" They all knelt on the ground and shouted.
