Li Zhu spread his hands, indicating that it was time for his performance to begin...
This attitude made the Second Prince feel as uncomfortable as if he had swallowed a fly. To demonstrate his strength and bolster his own prestige, he cleared his throat to prepare the Imperial Guards for his orders. Only after doing this did he shout.
"All soldiers, listen to my command!"
If there were crows here, at that moment three would surely fly right past the Second Prince's head...
This scene is so awkward...
"Imperial Guards, heed my command!"
The second prince changed his title again, but still no one moved, let alone responded to his orders!
Li Zhu looked at him with a mocking expression, which made the Second Prince lose face. He hadn't expected these Imperial Guards to be so disobedient, and he was already thinking about how to deal with them...
But Li Zhu didn't give him that chance. He cleared his throat like the Second Prince and then shouted loudly:
"All soldiers, listen to my command!"
As Li Zhu raised the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow in his hand, the Imperial Guards all straightened their backs and responded in the loudest voices.
"exist!"
"What should be done with traitors and rebels?"
"kill!"
"Bandits have invaded our China, what should we do?"
"kill!"
"Bandits are rampant, disturbing the people. What should we do?"
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
With three perfectly synchronized shouts of "Kill!", the entire imperial city was shaken...
An army with lofty ideals will be an invincible army. They will be fearless in the face of death, because any enemy standing in their way will become a stumbling block to their glorious mission.
"The Second Prince Li Ke is incompetent and immoral, and has committed treason. What should be done with such a rebellious and treacherous subject?"
Li Zhu returned the crimes that the Second Prince had imposed on him to the Second Prince...
The people are still the same people, and the army is still the same army, but the difference is that the commander of this army has now become Li Zhu...
This scene made the Second Prince feel worse than if he had eaten shit, especially when Li Zhu repeated his words, which made it even more heartbreaking...
Without giving the Second Prince any warning, the Imperial Guards roared again in response to Li Zhu's question.
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
Even though no one made a move, the sheer scale of the scene still frightened the Second Prince so much that he retreated repeatedly. Having lived a life of luxury for so long, when had he ever seen anything like this before?
"See that? These are the soldiers of my New Tang Dynasty, fearless of status, fearless of power, fearless of sacrifice..."
They are willing to sacrifice their lives for their principles; how can you, with your petty and despicable nature, possibly expect them to serve you?
Upon hearing Li Zhu's words, all the Imperial Guards behind him raised their heads. Never in their lives had they felt so proud to be soldiers. Now, even if someone ordered them to rob the poor, they would refuse, and might even kill the person who instigated them to rob the people, because a sense of morality had awakened in their hearts…
"Li Zhu, you...you..."
The second prince pointed at Li Zhu for a long time but couldn't say anything, instead getting quite angry at himself!
"Li Zhu, the Imperial Guards are directly under the Emperor's command. What are your intentions in ordering them around like this?"
Seeing the Second Prince get the short end of the stick, the Third Prince couldn't help but speak up for him!
Li Zhu couldn't help but curse inwardly, "What a hypocrite..."
The Second Prince was fine when he led the Imperial Guard to attack the Eastern Palace, but when he led the Imperial Guard to quell the rebellion, he was accused of having ulterior motives.
"I command the Imperial Guards? Which eye of yours saw that? They showed up here on their own. I'm just a nobody, how could I possibly stop so many people? And what are your intentions in falsely accusing me of commanding the Imperial Guards?"
Li Zhu blinked his big eyes, looking innocently at the Third Prince, almost giving him a heart attack. This guy's ability to turn the tables was truly masterful! He almost made black into white. There's a limit to shamelessness, isn't there? So many people are listening to you, and you're still blatantly lying? Do you think everyone is a fool?
"Li Zhu, I never expected that you, the Crown Prince, would be so cowardly as to dare to do something but not to take responsibility?"
The Third Prince gritted his teeth and stared at Li Zhu, questioning him!
"You think I dare to do it but not admit it? Then I'd like to ask you one question: how did Sister Xian'er die?"
Li Zhu stared at the two men's expressions and questioned them, while simultaneously using his hidden strength to intimidate their minds...
Upon being suddenly reprimanded by Li Zhu, the expressions on the two men's faces immediately changed, especially the Second Prince, who spoke with a hint of panic.
"Li Zhu, stop making baseless accusations! I have no idea what you're talking about..."
"have no idea?"
After Li Zhu finished speaking, he looked coldly at the two of them, which immediately made their eyes fill with panic...
"very good…"
Li Zhu nodded slowly, then suddenly roared at the two of them.
"brute!"
These words startled the two men, causing them to instinctively step back. Before they could regain their footing, Li Zhu continued his furious tirade:
"Xian'er is so young, are you even human? Even a dog is better than you..."
"Nonsense, we didn't do that..."
The Third Prince roared, his eyes darting around. How could they admit to such a thing? They had just fooled even their father, how could they fail with Li Zhu?
"Who is that? Tell me!"
Li Zhu glared angrily at the Third Prince, who was still trying to argue his way out of this situation…
Seeing Li Zhu's crazed demeanor, the two men felt their momentum gradually crumble. Coupled with their genuine unease, they were forced to retreat by Li Zhu...
Seeing their behavior, Li Zhu could easily see that they were indeed involved in Xian'er's death...
The Great Xia Dragon Sparrow in his hand swung directly at the two men, who retreated while screaming in terror.
"Li Zhu, what are you doing?"
However, Li Zhu didn't have a chance to rebuke the two men, but he also didn't kill them directly. After all, if he did, he would be branded as a fratricide, which was something he didn't want to see...
He couldn't kill two people, but he could at least beat them up to vent his anger...
So he turned the blade into the side of the sword and slammed it directly into the faces of the two men. Blood mixed with teeth flew out in the direction of the strike...
After landing, both of their faces were swollen on one side, and Li Zhu had knocked out their teeth, making their speech slurred and unclear. They were pointing at Li Zhu, spitting out a string of words in a highly emotional manner...
Seeing that they actually dared to talk back, Li Zhu was not about to put up with this insult.
The Great Xia Dragon Sparrow in his hand twirled and flew, each blade aimed straight for the two men's faces...
But each time, the side of the knife was used to strike the two men's faces. If the two men hadn't desperately blocked with their arms, their heads would probably have been smashed. Even so, they still couldn't avoid being slapped in the face...
