"Bullshit!"
Who would have thought that it would be better if Zhang Yan did not say this.
Qin Qiong, who was originally sitting on the horse, was so shocked that he staggered.
He almost fell off the horse!
He finally stabilized himself.
He did not even think about it and acted like an elder looking at an unworthy descendant.
He cursed angrily.
"What nonsense are you spouting, you little brat!”
In the entire Great Tang, only Cheng Yaojin and this old man would dare to reprimand Zhang Yan with the tone of an elder.
"In this world, anyone can rebel. Only you will never rebel! You dare to spout nonsense again! I'll slap you!"
"More than half of the Great Tang has been pacified by you! Half of Glory World was founded by you! The merits of the Great Tang, you should look down on the officials!”
"When the world was in chaos and the imperial family of the Great Tang was on the verge of collapse, you didn't rebel. Instead, you helped His Majesty ascend the throne and did your best for His Majesty!”
"Now, the world is singing and dancing, and the people live and work in peace! But you want to ruin the golden age that you've painstakingly created?”
"Do you think I'm a fool? Even if the entire world rebelled, you, Zhang Yan, would not!”
When the old man said this, he was furious and indignant.
However, his words were like a hammer in his heart.
It melted Zhang Yan's heart, which was originally frozen by Li Er and was covered in a thick ice armor.
Even if the entire world rebelled, you, Zhang Yan, would not.
What a wise old man!
His words were powerful.
When the world was in chaos and the Tang Empire was on the verge of collapse, Zhang Yan had never thought of rebelling.
For the Great Tang, they fought in all directions.
Now, the world was at peace, and the Great Tang had become a golden age.
How could Zhang Yan rebel?
It was such a simple logic, but a veteran who had retired behind the scenes and had not been involved in the affairs of the court for many years could analyze it so thoroughly.
He, Li Er, said that he was a "wise ruler" of the ages. How could he not understand?
He lowered his sword slightly.
Zhang Yan spoke again, but his tone was filled with helplessness.
"There's no other reason. The monarch wants me to die, but I don't want to die. The only way is to destroy this golden age and make a comeback!”
" What?!"
The moment these words came out, Qin Qiong's figure swayed once more.
His face once again revealed an extremely shocked expression.
Immediately after, he roared in anger as if he had gone crazy.
"Nonsense! Who framed His Majesty in front of you! Your Majesty and you are both monarch, minister, teacher, and friend! Why would I take your life? There must be some misunderstanding…"
"Misunderstanding? The Imperial Attendant brought Li Er's Tiger Tally to announce the decree, and Hou Junji brought fifty thousand Imperial Army soldiers to our Duke Zhenguo's estate! What misunderstanding do you think there is?”
Zhang Yan's face was filled with grief and indignation.
His steel teeth were about to be crushed by him.
"Old Qin! Li Er was a True Dragon! How can a real dragon sleep beside his bed? And it's still me, this deadly tiger!"
Zhang Yan's words exposed Li Er's true nature!
Qin Qiong was so shocked that she was tongue-tied. Hou Junji's face was deathly pale, and he opened his mouth, but no words came out.
"This…this…"
Zhang Yan's words were like ice in June, splashing onto Qin Qiong's head.
Even though he was unwilling to believe that Li Er would dare to treat Zhang Yan, the number one meritorious official of the Great Tang, in such a manner.
However, the Duke Zhenguo's Public House that was wrapped in flames in front of him.
There was also a group of fully armed Imperial Army soldiers who were blocking the 3,000 Raven Killer Army soldiers, but none of them dared to step forward in fear!
There was also the black-robed eunuch nailed to the gate and the helpless Hou Junji…
Everything was telling Qin Qiong.
What Zhang Yan said was most likely true!
Otherwise, Zhang Yan would not have gone so far as to burn down nearly half of Chang 'an and make such a big joke with the lives of millions of Chang' an people.
"There must be some misunderstanding…Your Majesty, Your Majesty would never give such an order!”
Qin Qiong's eyes were bloodshot as he turned to glare at Hou Junji.
The gold-plated wrought copper mace in his hand was squeaking from being squeezed!
"Hou Junji! This old man asks you! Was this really an imperial edict from His Majesty? Wasn't it because someone had passed down a fake imperial edict, secretly mobilized troops, and plotted against the Duke of Guarding Country?”
He could tell.
The old general in front of him had reached his limit!
If Hou Junji dared to say that he was faking the imperial edict, he would use his twin maces to smash Hou Junji into a million peach blossoms without Zhang Yan needing to do anything.
However!
In the end, he had misjudged Li Er!
Hou Junji sighed at the furious questioning of Qin Qiong.
He said helplessly.
"Yi Country Duke…State Guarding Duke is telling the truth. This is indeed the Emperor's decree! It was an imperial edict from His Majesty himself!”
" What?!"
Qin Qiong sucked in a breath of cold air. He almost fainted! After a long time, he finally spoke with difficulty.
His words were filled with grief and indignation.
"How is this possible? Your Majesty, how dare you treat an important official like this!"
