Chapter 185

"Your Majesty is truly straightforward! You are right, perhaps starting from today," Li Er laughed heartily.

This time.

He was not in the least angry because of Qin Mu's harsh words.

"Before leaving, I have one more thing I would like to ask Your Majesty."

Li Er withdrew his smile, his expression gradually becoming serious.

"What is it?"

Qin Mu asked indifferently.

"We will be enemies."

"Back in Changancheng, Duke of Zhao Zhangsun Wuji had a conversation with Your Majesty, and after that, Your Majesty decided to rebel against the Great Tang. This matter has already spread like wildfire in the capital."

"What I don't understand is, with Your Majesty's spirit, is it possible that only the position of Top Graduate caused today's consequences?"

"If our Great Tang Emperor were to apologize personally, I wonder if Your Majesty could forgive him?"

After saying this, everyone held their breath and stared fixedly at Qin Mu.

This doubt had been buried in each of their hearts for a long time.

If the truth could come to light today, that would truly be for the best.

"Hmph!"

"At this point, no matter what I say, it has no meaning. We cannot go back to the past, and Great Qin cannot go back to the way it was."

"If you really want to know, why not go back and ask that old fox, ask him what the reason is."

Qin Mu smiled faintly, his gentle expression suddenly becoming cold.

"This..."

"I understand."

Li Er did not pursue the matter further.

If he wanted to get the real answer, he would have to start with Zhangsun Wuji.

"Minister Fang, Old Li, go back and tell your Great Tang Emperor, when the moon is full it wanes, when water is full it overflows."

"Tell him not to be complacent, sooner or later, I will lead a million troops to the city walls."

"Tell him to wash his neck clean and wait for me in the capital!"

Qin Mu said coldly.

Hearing this naked threat, Li Er was instantly furious.

Good!

Qin Mu, let's wait and see!

Let's see if your million troops are more powerful, or if my Great Tang soldiers are more powerful!

Li Er stopped talking nonsense and turned to leave resolutely.

Fang Xuanling smiled awkwardly at Qin Mu, mounted his fast horse, and flew to catch up.

In a flash.

Time passed in the blink of an eye.

Qin Mu returned to the Budalagong, and Li Er and Fang Xuanling finally returned to the Great Tang.

Jiannan Circuit.

Two fast horses were galloping at high speed.

"Your Majesty, slow down!"

Fang Xuanling looked at Li Er, who was anxious to return, and kept shouting from behind.

Since leaving Great Qin.

Li Er had left all his attendants behind, and only he and Fang Xuanling were rushing back to Jiannan Circuit on horseback.

He couldn't wait any longer!

He had to rush back to Changancheng as soon as possible.

Otherwise.

Who knows what earth-shattering things Qin Mu would do next.

The Great Tang had already fallen too far behind!

Several hours later.

Inside the Jiannan Circuit army camp.

"Your Majesty, you have finally returned!"

Upon learning the news of Li Er's return, Cheng Yaojin, Yuchi Jingde, Qin Qiong, and other generals rushed to the commander's tent.

Everyone was overjoyed.

Since Li Er entered the Tibetan Plateau, they had been on pins and needles every day, fearing that something might happen to him.

"Yaojin, tell all the generals to pack up, and we will set off for the capital in three days."

"Not a single soldier is allowed to remain in Jiannan Circuit."

Li Er was in no mood to savor the joy of reuniting with Cheng Yaojin after a long absence.

At this moment, he felt a thousand-pound burden on his heart.

Qin Mu's figure appeared in his mind every moment.

He had to step up the opening of trade with Great Qin as soon as possible.

Buy books and introduce them into the Great Tang as soon as possible.

Only in this way could the shackles imposed by the aristocratic families be completely broken.

"What!?"

"Not a single soldier left?"

"Your Majesty, what does this mean?"

Cheng Yaojin was somewhat bewildered.

Jiannan Circuit was the first line of defense against Tibet.

There were no commoners here to begin with; if there were no garrison troops, wouldn't it be equivalent to an unmanned territory?

Anyone who wants to come can come, and anyone who wants to leave can leave?

"I have already reached an alliance with Qin Mu and ceded Jiannan Circuit to their Great Qin."

Li Er said calmly.

As soon as this was said, the entire commander's tent exploded.

"What!? Cede Jiannan Circuit to that traitor? Your Majesty, what exactly are you thinking?"

"Yes, did that traitor Qin Mu threaten Your Majesty? Please give me 30,000 troops, and I guarantee I will level his Budalagong in one day!"

"I also request to fight!"

Cheng Yaojin and the other generals were all red-faced with anger, wishing they could lead troops to the Tibetan Plateau immediately.

"My mind is made up, no need for more words!"

Li Er was very irritable and didn't want to listen to the noise of Cheng Yaojin and the others, so he turned and walked out.
