Chapter 303

If you go to the Tang border as an Emperor and call to open the city gates, that's simply looking for death! An Emperor without any power, even a common soldier could shoot him dead at will; I reckon Li Chengqian wishes Li Er would go back alone.

In this way.

He could imitate the story of Li Yuan and perform another trick of the Retired Emperor ascending the throne.

After all, the Li family has always been good at this.

"This won't work, that won't work; am I just going to wait for death?" Li Er clenched his fists, veins bulging.

It's really one wave after another.

My wife's business hasn't been solved yet, and my son is playing with fire in the backyard.

It's really damn stifling!

"Your Majesty, your humble servant has a plan, I don't know if it's feasible."

Fang Xuanling, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke.

"Oh? Speak quickly!"

Li Er's eyes lit up suddenly.

Fang Xuanling is Great Tang's number one strategist and also Li Er's right-hand man.

If he has an idea, perhaps things will really have a turning point.

"Your Majesty, at the moment, we still have to ask Qin Mu for help."

"As the monarch of Great Qin, he has powerful forces, and even in our Great Tang's peak period, we had no way to deal with him."

"If he can help us send troops to suppress the rebellion, this matter can naturally be solved easily."

Fang Xuanling said.

"Ask Qin Mu for help!?" Li Er's face fell instantly, and he said gloomily: "He abducted my wife and daughter; it's already good that I haven't settled the score with him, and now I have to ask him for help?"

Embarrassing!

"Your Majesty, what time is it now? Don't worry about romantic feelings and self-esteem anymore."

"As the saying goes, as long as the green hills remain, there's no need to worry about firewood. If Your Majesty wants to settle the score with Qin Mu, you have to wait until you are strong enough."

"Now we have less than a thousand soldiers and less than a hundred generals; we simply don't have the strength or qualifications to negotiate with Qin Mu on equal terms."

"The only way now is to put down our status and grievances and beg Qin Mu; perhaps he will consider helping us."

Fang Xuanling was also helpless.

If there was any other way, he wouldn't be looking for this white-eyed wolf, Qin Mu.

The price of asking for his help might be immeasurable.

But this is the only way now.

"Your Majesty, Old Fang is right. Qin Mu is our only hope!"

Du Ruhui decided immediately, thinking Fang Xuanling's plan was feasible.

After pondering for a long time, Li Er finally gritted his teeth and nodded: "Alright! Since you both say so, let's do it."

"Your Majesty, this matter still needs the Empress to come forward and coordinate; only then will the chances be higher."

Fang Xuanling said awkwardly.

He naturally knew that Li Er and Empress Zhangsun were having a big fight.

Divorcing and fighting.

Where is there any sign of the deep affection they once had?

"What? You want me to lower my face and ask her for help? You really thought of that!"

Li Er blushed and said insincerely.

He actually wanted to find Empress Zhangsun!

He divorced Empress Zhangsun in a muddle-headed way before.

Regret!

"Your Majesty, a great man knows how to bend and stretch! Besides, you and the Empress are just having a tantrum; how can you divorce just like that?"

"After the rebellion is suppressed, Your Majesty can personally apologize to the Empress and say a few nice words, and this matter will pass..."

Fang Xuanling looked like someone who had been through it.

He also has a tigress at home!

"In that case, alright!"

Li Er agreed "reluctantly".

Inside the room.

Empress Zhangsun was sewing clothes.

Every stitch was extremely attentive.

"Cough cough..."

An awkward cough sounded, and Li Er walked in from outside.

Empress Zhangsun looked up, saw it was Li Er, and immediately pulled a long face: "Isn't this the Tang Emperor? What wind blew you to me?"

"Empress Zhangsun, we were husband and wife after all; do you really have the heart to see me die and not save me?"

Li Er endured his temper and said in a low voice.

"Changle, come, take a look at the clothes I made for Qin Mu. To finish these clothes, I haven't closed my eyes for several nights."

Empress Zhangsun didn't pay attention to Li Er at all, just carefully fiddling with the clothes in her hands.

"Ah?"

Princess Changle looked at Empress Zhangsun, then at Li Er, feeling speechless to the extreme.

You two are fighting, can you not drag me into it?

Li Er clenched his fists tightly, his whole body trembling.

Good for you, Zhangsun Wugou!

Actually saying such shameless words in front of me!

I was right after all!

If I didn't divorce you, wouldn't I never be able to lift my head in the future?

"Even if you don't look at my face, look at the face of the people. You were once the mother of a nation; do you have the heart to see the world plunged into misery?" Li Er desperately suppressed his temper and continued to persuade earnestly.

Sure enough.

The kind and benevolent Empress Zhangsun felt that what Li Er said made some sense, pondered for a long time, and said: "This is the last time I will help you!"

"Great kindness, I am deeply grateful!"

Li Er bowed.

"Speak, what do you want me to do?"

"I am now at a dead end, and only by borrowing troops from Qin Mu will I have a chance to suppress the Crown Prince's rebellion. I hope you can coordinate and persuade Qin Mu as much as possible."

"Alright, I promise you! Follow me!"

Empress Zhangsun nodded and took Li Er to Qin Mu's room.
