In the eighteenth year of Zhenguan, Li Jue, who transmigrated and became the son of the废太子 (cancelled crown prince) Li Chengqian, secretly returned to the longed-for Chang'an from Qianzho...
"It has to be our Commandant! He really did send us on this expedition with His Majesty! Hahaha!"
"I'm going to kill a hundred of them this time, and win a title for my mother!"
"I want to kill a thousand, and then become a great general!"
The political landscape in the early Tang Dynasty was basically in line with the principle that prime ministers must rise from the ranks of provincial governors and generals must emerge from the ranks of soldiers.
Therefore, the Tang Dynasty was filled with a strong fighting spirit and abundant martial virtue from top to bottom.
Because during this period of the Tang Dynasty, it was truly possible to change one's fate and achieve upward social mobility through warfare.
Li Jue was also very happy to see his soldiers so happy.
But before his smile could fully bloom, he saw a hurried figure.
"Eldest grandson, His Majesty has issued an imperial edict ordering you to return to the palace immediately!"
"ah?"
Upon hearing this, Li Jue immediately wilted. He didn't even need to guess what it was about; Li Er must have discovered that he had forged the imperial edict.
"His Majesty also said that if Your Highness dares not return, he will not allow the Sanglin General's Army to go on the expedition..."
"this……"
"You don't need to say anything more, I'll go back with you!"
Upon seeing this, Xue Shisan quickly came over.
"Your Highness?"
"It's alright, you and Shan Daozhen continue with the preparations as usual, I'll go back to the palace first..."
"Your Highness, if His Majesty insists on not allowing it, please do not persist, and do not anger His Majesty..."
"Um!"
Li Jue bid farewell to everyone and followed the Hundred Cavalry back to Taiji Palace. As soon as he stepped into the Ganlu Hall, he heard the door slam shut behind him.
"You still have the guts to come back?"
Li Shimin, holding a whip in his hand, emerged from the shadows with a cold expression.
Upon seeing this, Li Jue immediately admitted defeat and knelt down with a thud.
"Grandson knows his crime!"
"How dare you! You actually dare to falsely convey an imperial edict!"
"If I don't beat you to death today, I'll take your surname!"
"Guards, hang this rebellious grandson of yours!"
