Chapter 71

"Minister Fang, Old Li, do you know why I insisted on bringing you along?" On the road, Qin Mu, bored, started talking to Li Er and Fang Fang Xuanling.

"Isn't it for us to witness the military might of Great Qin?"

Fang Fang Xuanling's eyes were full of confusion.

Li Er was also completely clueless.

Could it be that this brat is calculating something again?

"You only got half of it right." Qin Mu smiled slightly and said meaningfully:

"The real purpose is actually to prevent you from returning to Great Tang."

The conspiracy gradually unfolds! (8/10, seeking first subscription!!!)

"If your Great Tang Emperor learns that I have withdrawn my troops, wouldn't you take the opportunity to launch a sneak attack?"

"Hahaha!"

?Expedition?"

After speaking, Qin Mu laughed toward the sky and galloped on the vast land.

Looking at his back, Li Er's mouth twitched with anger.

This brat is really cunning!

Selling people and making them count the money for him!

Who on earth taught such a son!

"Hmph!"

"When we reach the battlefield, I will watch you make a fool of yourself!"

"Then wouldn't my Great Qin be at a disadvantage?"

"Do you think Turkic cavalry are as weak as the Tubo army?"

Li Er muttered in a low voice, even feeling some anticipation in his heart.

He wished the Turkic army would defeat Great Qin so he could see Qin Mu's frustrated and dejected look.

At that time, I will mock him properly!

"The Ruler is right; Turkic cavalry and the Tubo army are indeed not to be mentioned in the same breath."

"Tubo is located on a plateau and has never had any natural enemies; their combat ability and soldier quality are still stuck in a few hundred years ago."

"But the Turks are born warriors; they are civilians when off their horses and soldiers when on them; their combat power is quite terrifying."

"This time, Qin Mu will have a hard time."

Fang Fang Xuanling nodded in deep agreement.

Although he had seen how terrifying Qin Mu's army was, the opponent was, after all, the vulnerable Tubo.

And 300,000 Turkic cavalry are no joke!

Their combat power is not just 300,000; coupled with the impact of cavalry and their innate control over warhorses, the combat power of 300,000 Turkic cavalry is almost equivalent to 500,000 or even 600,000 Great Tang troops!

With such terrifying combat power, Qin Mu actually dares to face them head-on.

Isn't this just looking for death?

"It's just that this brat is very cunning, bringing you and me along, so there is no way to slip away and report to Great Tang."

"Otherwise, it could indeed be as this brat said; we could take advantage of their empty defense line in the southeast and sneak in."

Li Er gritted his teeth in frustration.

This is truly a once-in-a-thousand-years opportunity!

And it was missed just Wu Li Ke that!

Good brat!

You are truly cunning!

"Sigh! Your Majesty, as the saying goes, the moon wanes when it is full, and water overflows when it is full. Qin Mu is wise near-demonic, but he might be too arrogant."

"Perhaps this battle with the Turks is the beginning of his failure."

Thinking that Qin Mu might be defeated and killed, Fang Fang Xuanling couldn't help but feel emotional.

"Why?"

"Do you think it's a pity for him?"

Li Er looked at Qin Mu's receding back and muttered.

"Your Majesty, forgive me; although Qin Mu is high-spirited and reckless, he has always treated me well. Moreover, such a stunning youth is probably not seen once in a few hundred years." Fang Fang Xuanling nodded, not lying.

It is indeed a pity!

Such a stunning youth, if he dies on the battlefield, how can it not be regrettable?

"Don't I feel it's a pity?"

"Do you think I am naturally cold-blooded?"

"Such a stunning youth, if he were used by my Great Tang, how good would that be."

"Pity! If he doesn't die, he will eventually become a disaster for my Great Tang."

"Heaven does not grant years; I don't know how long I can live. I can only in the limited time..."

Li Er was also quite emotional.

He can be considered a heroic ruler; how could he not cherish talent?

Pity that fate plays tricks!

Paving the way for Qian'er's future, I must not leave this disaster!

Li Er and Qin Mu are destined to be mortal enemies.

This is something destined by heaven; no one can change it.

Perhaps in the near future.

The protagonist of this life-and-death battlefield will become myself and Qin Mu.

This is all destined!

"Sigh!"

Thinking of Li Li Chengqian's fat-eared, honest appearance, Fang Fang Xuanling had thousands of words stuck in his chest.

In Li Li Chengqian's hands.

Great Tang...

, can't say it, can't explain it, can only turn into a sigh.

Is there a future?

Chang'an City, Zhao Duke's Mansion.

Crown Prince Li Li Chengqian is walking toward the main hall with a servant.

As always, timid and fearful, without the slightest demeanor of an emperor.

Ever since being threatened by Empress Zhangsun Zhangsun Wuji, Li Li Chengqian's days have been much harder.

In the past.

He was the Crown Prince of Great Tang, above one person and below ten thousand!

He could do whatever he wanted in his daily life.

Except for Li Er and Empress Zhangsun Zhangsun Wugou, no one dared to make him feel the slightest restraint.

And it was precisely because of the infinite doting of Li Er and Empress Zhangsun Zhangsun Wugou.

Li Li Chengqian only knew how to eat, drink, and play, doing whatever was comfortable.

He didn't care at all about national affairs or court politics.

But now it's different.

Under the coercion and inducement of Empress Zhangsun Zhangsun Wuji, Li Li Chengqian has to move among civil and military officials every day.

Mentally exhausted!

But no choice!

If he wants to continue living a life of luxury, he must do as Empress Zhangsun Zhangsun Wuji says.

In a short while.

Li Li Chengqian arrived in the main hall.

Empress Zhangsun Zhangsun Wuji was sitting inside, drinking tea slowly, looking very comfortable.

Empress Zhangsun Chong was also sitting on the side.

Seeing Empress Zhangsun Zhangsun Wuji, Li Li Chengqian hurriedly ran in and respectfully called out: "Uncle!"

"Crown Prince, you are here?"

"How did the matter go?"

Empress Zhangsun Zhangsun Wuji also nodded with a smile.

"According to Uncle's instructions, people from the mansion have already been placed among the guards of Chang'an City, and in various official positions, most of them have also been filled with children of our Empress Zhangsun family."

Li Li Chengqian didn't dare to hesitate and stated the results of his past few days, his tone even carrying a hint of pride.

Even though he was a teenager, his way of thinking was Wu Li Ke that of a four or five-year-old child.

Feeling Wu Li Ke he should get a reward after doing something.

"Heh!"

Empress Zhangsun Chong, sitting on the side, saw Li Li Chengqian's emotional change and couldn't help but sneer.

"Very good!"

"In this way, even if the Emperor knows something in Tubo, he can't do anything to me."

Empress Zhangsun Zhangsun Wuji nodded with satisfaction.

Ever since Li Er disguised himself as an envoy and went to Tubo, Empress Zhangsun Zhangsun Wuji began working overtime to deploy his plan.

According to his plan, he wanted to control the entire capital as soon as possible!

Of course.

This kind of control doesn't mean immediate rebellion, but mastering the vast majority of the power within it.

.......Seeking flowers...0

How old and cunning is Empress Zhangsun Zhangsun Wuji?

How could he not know that rebellion is a dead end?

But what Empress Zhangsun Zhangsun Wuji wants to do is not rebellion!
