The news was like a bolt from the blue.
Li Shi Min was struck hard.
He was so shocked that he couldn't say anything. He only pointed at the scout and opened his mouth subconsciously.
Du Ruhui and Zhangsun Wuji were even more shocked.
Especially Du Ruhui. When he learned that his good friend had been captured alive by Li Chengyuan, his face turned pale.
Cheng Yaojin and Fang Xuanling had been captured alive by Li Chengyuan, so there was no need to think about what would happen.
They weren't like Zhangsun Wugou, who had no use for Li Chengyuan at all.
If he captured Great Zhou, there was a high chance that he would be executed!
It was even a torture that was made public!
Thinking of this, Du Ruhui's body trembled. He said in a trembling voice,""Your Majesty! Xuan Ling and Zhi Jie, they are all here!"
"Zhen knows!"
Li Shi Min suddenly stood up and said.
At this moment, he clenched his fists tightly, and his arms were trembling. A wave of anger condensed in his chest.
He could never have thought of it.
Li Chengyuan discovered that his army, and most importantly, the thirty thousand elite soldiers of the Great Tang, were no match for his several thousand subordinates.
And now.
His left and right arms, a civil official and a general, were all captured alive by Li Chengyuan! By the time the news reached the Great Tang, the two of them might have already been taken to the execution ground.
Thump!
Li Shi Min smashed his right fist on the doorpost and said angrily,"Damn it! Li Jiancheng, you really gave birth to a good son!!!”
He never thought that Li Chengyuan, who was called " good brother " by Lizhi every day and " good child " by Guanyin maid, would become his biggest problem!
Thinking of this and looking at his sons, the more they competed, the angrier they became.
As he spoke, Li Shi Min calmed down.
There was no turning back now.
The fate of the Great Tang and the Great Zhou had been decided.
Either you die or I live!
"What should the Great Tang do next?" Li Shi Min asked in a deep voice. Li Chengyuan was silently declaring war! Does the Great Tang accept the challenge?"
Du Ruhui and Zhangsun Wuji hesitated.
30,000 troops had not even defeated the Great Zhou. If they wanted to achieve a complete victory, they would need at least 100,000 troops!
Although the Great Tang could send out so many soldiers, the treasury could not afford to send so many soldiers!
Especially now, when His Majesty had just ascended the throne. If he started a large-scale war immediately, he would definitely be criticized by the people. The people's hearts would be unstable, and there would be a plague in the world.
"A slight change in one hair will affect the whole body! This emperor is really unbearable!"
Li Shi Min laughed at himself.
A moment later, he spoke again." The Great Zhou must be attacked. Otherwise, it will definitely be the number one problem for the Great Tang in the future. However, we need to discuss it again now. The two of you go back and think of a countermeasure. Tell me tomorrow!”
Du Ruhui and Zhangsun Wuji quickly agreed.
At the same time.
The news also reached Taiji Palace.
Li Yuan, who was drowning his sorrows in wine, took another big gulp of wine and laughed sadly when he heard the news.
What a sin!
...
In the Great Zhou Imperial Palace.
Li Chengyuan had just finished his compulsory education and returned to the Imperial Palace to learn about Fang Xuanling and his wife's jailbreak.
This made him a little depressed. Although the two of them had escaped, it would not have a substantial impact on the Great Zhou.
However, the beheading ceremony that had already been announced could not be held.
It was not good to break faith with the people as soon as he ascended the throne.
Li Chengyuan recalled the guard's description and asked,""What did you just say about Auntie?”
The guard was stunned for a moment and quickly recounted what had happened in White Sun Palace.
Li Chengyuan immediately understood.
Auntie was using a chicken feather as an arrow!
He actually used her as a shield?
"You said that Auntie was tied up by Cheng Yaojin and then the two felons escaped?”
The guard nodded again." That's right. When the jailer went in, the Empress was tied to the cell door. The felon had already disappeared!"”
Li Chengyuan rubbed his chin.
This was somewhat intriguing. Even if Zhangsun Wugou cooperated with Cheng Yaojin to put on a bitter show, how did they escape?
There were guards at the gate of the imperial prison. Could there be a secret passage?
Li Chengyuan couldn't help but think of some scenes from the TV series in his previous life, or the famous movie " The Redemption of Xiao Shengke " or the TV series " Prison Break."
There were some secret passages.
"Report!"
At this moment, a white-robed soldier appeared outside the hall.
"Enter!" Li Chengyuan waved his hand.
"Your Majesty!" The white-robed soldier quickly said. The scouts found a secret passage in the south of the city, which was connected to the imperial prison! The felon might have escaped from there!”
"Did you find any other clues?" Li Chengyuan was stunned.”
The scout hurriedly shook his head.
Li Chengyuan nodded slightly. It seemed like he was going to pry the clue out of his aunt's red lips.
"How is Auntie now? Are you injured?" he asked immediately.”
The guard at the side replied,"It's just a slight strangulation on the neck. The doctor was rejected!"”
The corners of Li Chengyuan's mouth curled up. He said,"Go get the medicine! Zhen will personally treat aunt!"
This injury must be treated properly!
If he didn't punish them, Zhangsun Wugou would be able to overturn the heavens in the future!
