Chapter 946: Li Tun Kneels

Liu Dahao carefully supported Feng Sanniang as they descended a few steps, only then letting out a sigh of relief. With a humble and submissive expression, he said, "My lady, your son is too dazzling. If your husband achieves anything more, do you think that with the Emperor's temperament, he wouldn't destroy our Liangzhou before he passes away?"

Feng Sanniang was shaken, lost in thought.

The current prosperity of Liangzhou is truly something that other parts of Longyan cannot catch up to, even with a whip.

It has only been a few years.

While Feng Sanniang was proud of her son, she naturally did not forget to worry about his safety.

Such a dazzling person would naturally be kept in mind by many.

The imperial court is too treacherous a place.

One can tell just by the fact that the Li Dynasty wanted to kill him this time.

Under such circumstances, Liangzhou can only hide its light. This is just like how Liu Zheng hides his troops. Currently, the number of troops Liangzhou has in its own territory is actually not large. There are troops in the Western Regions, troops in Central Asia, and troops in the Southern Barbarian lands. Adding these troops together, it is quite formidable. It is just that they have been sent very far away by Liu Zheng, and although they are still considered a threat in the eyes of others,

they still provide them with some psychological comfort.

If there were turmoil within the country, these troops of Vice Minister Liu would be of no use.

:

Liangzhou already has the momentum of being too big to control.

Even.

Xie Tianyao also wants his own son to die.

Thinking of this, Feng Sanniang smiled softly: "My husband is also very capable!"

Liu Dahao puffed out his chest, ecstatic: "That's right, that's right!"

"Madam, be careful, be careful."

Because there is no time.

In this situation, Liu Dahao can naturally only focus his heart on their second child.

One must make the enemy lower their guard!

Liu Zheng did not expect that this guy with extremely deep schemes would actually come out to welcome him in person.

This face-saving gesture is actually generous enough.

In fact, Li Tun is also very helpless.

This time.

Entering Hancheng again, it was Li Tun who came out to welcome him in person.

The will of the people.

Li Tun naturally has no Method.

A wave of his hand.

Because when the news arrived that Liu Zheng and his party of three were about to reach Hancheng, the people of Hancheng had long since gone crazy. Several days ago, they began various preparations, beating drums and gongs.

Public opinion.

This is public opinion.

Only at this moment did he truly feel a sense of relief in his heart. He had survived once again.

In reality, if the Li Dynasty truly wanted his life, it would actually be very simple.

Just sending an army would suffice.

Royal honor guards came to welcome him.

Liu Zheng, Pei Qianyun, and Lu Yao, upon arriving at the gates of Hancheng, had long since seen the sea of people along the road.

He smiled slightly, remaining calm and composed.

But even so, in the eyes of these commoners, he had already become a god.

The content of those public opinion attacks on him earlier?

What does that count for?

But clearly, the Li Dynasty was not that firm in its stance on killing him, and of course, it was also because they dared not. One, Xiao Qian's army was still preparing to resist the Wa army. Two, the military exercise army from Qingzhou had already begun moving back and forth on the Yalu River, scaring the Li Dynasty's garrison so much that they could not even sleep well.

Therefore.

His survival was due to a combination of reasons.

Just kidding.

Matching you with two!

People, after all, are rational.

Such a god-like man, what is wrong with marrying their eldest Princess? Is he not worthy? Not to mention his domineering conduct of breaking through five passes and slaying seven generals this time, just by digging into his background: the son of the second King of a Different Surname in Longyan, the Crown Prince! In terms of status, is he inferior to your Li Dynasty's eldest Princess?

And he is also the current Imperial Son-in-law of Longyan!

Then, study all the deeds regarding this Vice Minister Liu that have been passed down from Longyan.

"Vice Minister Liu!"

"A god descended to earth!"

"A heaven-born divine general!"

The more they enjoyed criticizing him before, the higher they hold him up now.

The most important thing is the current situation of the Li Dynasty. Gyeongsang Province has completely fallen into the hands of the Wa army. Chungcheong Province also feels precarious. At such a time, people from all walks of life are very eager for such a god-like figure to come out and turn the tide. This is the reason why Liu Zheng is so highly sought after.

"Vice Minister Liu!"

It is not.

Liu Zheng was a bit confused.

Why are you taking out the Yinzhou Plow?

"Please save the Li Dynasty!"

"Save us!"

These people along the road were all acting like madmen; some held Liu Zheng's Heart Learning, some held the Sweet Potato discovered by Liu Zheng, and some even held Liu Zheng's Drunken Yinzhou, the Perfume invented by Liu Zheng, or the Yinzhou Plow.

In the honor guard welcoming Liu Zheng, inside a magnificent Horse Carriage, Li Xuanya gritted her teeth, watching the woman in white riding on horseback from afar, wishing she could rush up and tear her apart.

Queen Inhyeon smiled bitterly and said, "Calm down, calm down, Xuanya, you must have confidence. If you go over, wouldn't that just diminish your own presence?"

Li Xuanya let out a cold snort, then imitated her mother, the Queen, and sat up with dignity.

Lu Yao was even more incredulous as she watched all of this, then took another look at Liu Zheng.

"Is that the demoness!"

At this moment.

Seeing Li Tun come out, the three of them naturally could not continue riding their horses; they dismounted one after another and walked over with cupped hands.

"Vice Minister Liu, this journey has been arduous and dangerous, it really makes this Mandarin, makes this Mandarin..."

Li Tun wore an apologetic expression.

"Vice Minister Liu, have you been well?"

The three, led by Liu Zheng, drew closer and closer.

Li Tun, on the royal carriage, finally could not help himself, laughing heartily as he stepped down.

The others also exchanged glances with one another.

Such dominance truly commanded respect in one's heart.

The commoners on the roadside also became even more frantic.

Liu Zheng chuckled inwardly, *Pretend, keep pretending! * But on the surface, he remained calm: "Your Majesty need not be concerned; can this not also be considered a brilliant part of my journey in the Li Dynasty?"

"Good! Magnanimous!"

Li Tun's eyes lit up.

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire crowd was in an uproar.

Liu Zheng's eyes also narrowed slightly.

Sharing the same carriage was indeed a great honor for Liu Zheng, the Crown Prince of Liangzhou.

Those who came with Li Tun, naturally including Li Hang, Jin Wanji, and others, all exchanged pleasantries with Liu Zheng one after another.

Suddenly.

Li Tun asked, "Vice Minister Liu, would you care to share a carriage with this Mandarin?"

He believed that someone of Li Tun's stature would not go so far as to personally assassinate him inside the royal carriage.

Following Li Tun onto the royal carriage, the ride was naturally steady and extremely luxurious. At this time, the entire honor guard began to return to the Wanggong. Along the way, Liu Zheng listened to the cheers lining the road, feeling as if he were in a dream.

Li Tun glanced at the Eunuch beside him, and the latter immediately understood the meaning and left the carriage.

Pei Qianyun, however, frowned.

With Liu Zheng sharing a carriage with Li Tun, he naturally could not go up; wouldn't that make it difficult for him to protect the young master?

Unexpectedly, Liu Zheng laughed out loud: "Good!"

You look at me.

I look at you.

Liu Zheng did not know what medicine Li Tun was selling in his gourd.

For a moment.

On this royal carriage, only Li Tun and Liu Zheng remained.

Consequently.

Liu Zheng had always been able to handle the Westerner Party and the Southerner Party with ease. The first time he felt the depth of this Li Dynasty King's schemes was at the Taimiao.

Li Tun, at this moment, was also quietly observing Liu Zheng.

Regarding this young man who had suddenly emerged, Li Tun felt both love and hate.

Strictly speaking.

This could be considered the first time the two were truly together.

He had been in the Li Dynasty for quite some time now.

No.

This was a genius that a dynasty would not encounter in a thousand years!

In just a few short years, he had been able to build a barren, desolate land into the financial center of the entire Longyan. In just a few short years, he had been able to develop Liangzhou into the strongest in Longyan, and in just a few short years, he had been able to defeat the Xiongnu, conquer the Southern Barbarians, and even the Western Regions and Central Asia had become territory under his horse's hooves.

This was a talent.

After Liu Zheng appeared, Li Tun had used his intelligence network to bring back a lot of information about Liu Zheng from Longyan. The more he read, the more shocked he became.

A talent.

If it were.

He would definitely put this person to great use!

This time.

A genius.

He loved this genius, all his stories, and all his shocking actions.

But what he hated was that such a genius was not from the Li Dynasty.

He thought of that remark of Liu Zheng's.

If given ten years, the Li Dynasty army would surely trample the Wa nation!

Before, Li Tun did not believe it.

Vice Minister Liu, passing through five passes and slaying seven generals, made Li Tun feel even more that he must be a divine being.

If the Li Dynasty could have such a person, what would there be to fear from the Wa?

Consequently.

Liu Zheng took a sip of tea, intending to break the stalemate.

He saw Li Tun suddenly stand up, then drop to his knees with a thud; that corpulent body made the entire Horse Carriage tremble along with him.

Liu Zheng was startled, staring at him in dumbfounded silence.

But this time, he believed him.

Awkward.

For two people to remain silent at the same time is a very awkward thing.

Liu Zheng also stood up, at a loss for what to do for a moment.

Just kidding.

This was a king, after all! Although in his eyes, the Li Dynasty was nothing more than a tiny plot of land, he was still a king!

"Vice Minister Liu, can you truly save my Li Dynasty?"

Li Tun asked, looking up with tears streaming down his face.

"This—"

"Your Majesty, you must not!"

Liu Zheng hurried forward, wanting to help him up.

Li Tun refused to budge, gritting his teeth as he said: "Vice Minister Liu, save my Li Dynasty, and everything you want, I, the Mandarin, will grant you!"

Furthermore, he was not just a king!

If one had to bring up the connection of Li Xuanya, then he was also his own father-in-law!

How could he possibly bear such a grand gesture of respect?

"No—"

Liu Zheng was truly frightened by this Li Tun.

Everything was perfectly fine—

Why go to such lengths?
