When Li Jue and his party arrived at Anhua Gate, the entire gate was in complete chaos.
Li Jue quickly ordered his men to help the children who had been knocked down up and check their injuries one by one. Seeing that most of them had only scratches, he felt a little better.
But when he saw a child who had been run over by a carriage and was lying on the ground barely breathing, his face instantly darkened.
"Who did this?!"
Upon hearing this, the onlookers all turned their gaze toward Li Yuanying.
Li Yuanying remained unfazed, showing no regard for Li Jue, the young imperial grandson, and arrogantly said with his hands on his hips.
"They are blocking my carriage, so I will naturally run them over!"
"you!"
"Guards, seize this traitorous king!"
The Hundred Cavalrymen who had always been with Li Jue could no longer tolerate his words and immediately rushed out to subdue Li Yuanying.
When had Li Yuanying ever suffered such a great loss? He immediately started yelling and shouting.
"How dare you!"
"Who are you people, daring to capture me? I will petition my brother, the Emperor, to have your entire family executed!"
"Inform His Highness Prince Teng that we are His Majesty's personal guard, the Hundred Cavalry Division!"
"What?"
"You are the Hundred Cavalry Commandery?"
Li Yuanying may be cruel, but he's not stupid. He knows who he can mess with and who he can't.
It can be said that, looking at the entire Tang Dynasty, as long as he doesn't recklessly provoke Li Er, no one in the Tang Dynasty can deal with him!
Therefore, he knew a great deal about Li Er's edicts, or rather, about Li Er.
Even though he was far away in Tengzhou, Shandong, he still knew that his elder brother had formed an organization called the Hundred Cavalry Guard, firstly to serve as his personal bodyguard, and secondly to monitor the officials and the distant vassal kings!
"So you're brothers from the Hundred Cavalry Division. Aren't you the ones protecting my second brother?"
"In reply to Prince Teng, we are not only protecting His Majesty, but also under orders to protect His Highness the eldest grandson!"
"What?"
Li Yuanying was startled again upon hearing this, and then looked at Li Jue standing in front of him with a shocked expression.
He hadn't seen Li Jue many times. When he took up his fief, Li Jue was only three or four years old and didn't recognize the boy in front of him as Li Jue.
At the same time, Li Jue's height also deeply shocked him. If he remembered correctly, this child was only ten years old this year, yet he had grown so tall.
What surprised him even more was the Hundred Riders. The Hundred Riders were actually protecting this grandson closely, which showed how much his second brother valued the child!
"You are Li Jue?"
"yes!"
"Since you are Li Jue, why don't you bow to me?"
Upon hearing this, Li Jue snorted coldly and then bowed to Li Yuanying.
"Greetings, Prince Teng!"
When Li Yuanying saw Li Jue bowing to him, a smug look appeared on his face.
"Since we're all relatives, let's not let this little thing cause things to get too tense!"
"How about Uncle gives them some money in a bit, and we can let this matter drop?"
Upon hearing this, the surrounding people all showed expressions of disappointment.
They had initially thought the eldest grandson of the Tang dynasty was a good person who stood up for the people and cared for their suffering. But after witnessing their conversation and the eldest grandson bowing to Li Yuanying, they realized that compared to Li Jue and Li Yuanying, they, the lowly commoners, were the real outsiders!
Just when everyone thought Li Jue would let Li Yuanying off the hook, Li Jue's face suddenly turned cold.
"make life difficult for!"
"You have violated the laws of the Tang Dynasty, and the Prefect of the Capital will punish you accordingly!"
"Guards, take the criminal Li Yuanying to the Jingzhao Prefecture prison and let the Jingzhao Prefecture punish him!"
"promise!"
Upon hearing this, Li Yuanying panicked on the spot. If he were to be taken to the Jingzhao Prefecture, whether he would be punished or not was a minor matter, but he couldn't bear the loss of face.
He was, after all, the son of Emperor Gaozu, the Prince of Teng of the Tang Dynasty. Once he was taken to the Jingzhao Prefecture and subjected to legal proceedings, who would still take him, the Prince of Teng, seriously in the future?
"Li Jue, don't go too far!"
"I only knocked down a few lowly people, do you really think you can punish me?!"
“Young Master, I am not qualified to punish you. Your crime can be determined by the Prefect of the Capital, by His Majesty, or by the Minister of Justice, the Censorate, and the Court of Judicial Review.”
"If they cannot convict you, then the people of the world will convict you!"
As soon as Li Jue said this, the surrounding people cheered.
"Well said!"
"Well done, eldest grandson!"
"As expected of the eldest grandson of the Tang Dynasty, he has the courage to do things!"
Hearing the cheers from the crowd, Li Jue simply waved his hand at the Hundred Cavalry Division. Upon seeing this, the Hundred Cavalry Division immediately escorted Li Yuanying to Yingtian Prefecture.
"Oh right, where's my older brother!"
When Li Jue saw Li Yuanying being taken away, he remembered the purpose of his trip to Anhua Gate and immediately shouted loudly in the crowd.
"I...I'm here..."
Li Jue followed the sound and found a carriage overturned by the roadside. He thought his elder brother had unfortunately perished.
"Big brother!"
"You died such a terrible death, waaaaah!"
Li Xiang, who was standing under the carriage, was so angry upon hearing this that he almost fainted.
"I...I'm not dead yet!"
Li Xiang struggled to climb out of the carriage, but he got stuck halfway out and could only beg Li Jue for help.
"Please help me up..."
"Big brother?"
"You're not dead! That's wonderful!"
Li Xiang rolled his eyes dramatically upon hearing this.
"If you keep crying, I might really die!"
"Oh oh oh!"
