Seeing Li Chengqian whip towards him with a whip.
The Confucian scholar was also frightened and screamed, and hurriedly rolled and crawled to avoid it.
His dodge regardless of his image indeed allowed him to escape.
Because Li Chengqian used his full strength on this side.
When it was pulled on the ground, a clearly visible mark appeared on the stone ground.
If this hit someone, it would be an understatement to say that the person would suffer broken bones and tendons.
"Li Chengqian!"
"Are you still going to commit murder on the street?"
The Confucian scholar was also furious and stood up and roared at Li Chengqian.
"A murder in the street?"
"Don't talk about committing murder in the street, what if I go to your home and kill you?"
Li Chengqian pointed at the Confucian scholar and said, "I didn't kill you today, not because I was afraid of anything."
"It's because you are a citizen of the Tang Dynasty."
"If you are a foreigner or an official of the Tang Dynasty, you will definitely die."
"You said that I shouldn't swing the butcher's knife at the heads of the people. You are right."
"But I think everyone present knows what happened yesterday."
"I, the prince, were assassinated, but during the investigation, too many people knew about it and did not report it."
"Even if there are assassins hiding in the house, I still help those assassins hide it and don't want to communicate with others."
Li Chengqian pointed at himself and said: "Let me ask you, have I, Li Chengqian, ever done anything to be sorry for you?"
"You are all Tang people, and you are all citizens of our Tang Dynasty."
"You keep saying that I am the prince, but when this prince of yours was assassinated, you were really helping the assassins find hiding places."
Li Chengqian snorted and said: "Is this how you support the imperial court? Is this how you support me?"
After he finished speaking, he looked at the Confucian scholar and said, "My brother doesn't deserve to die, let alone die here."
"They should die on the battlefield, fighting to protect you." r> Li Chengqian then tilted his head and asked the Confucian scholar, "Have you ever seen a battlefield? Do you know what a real battlefield is?"
"I'm telling you, it's scary and terrifying."
"But it is these damned people you are talking about who have used their bodies to build a wall of flesh and blood for you to keep all possible wars out of the country."
"You guys don't even know what a battlefield looks like."
"Similarly, these damned people in your mouth conquered various places along the way and conquered all the barbarians in the four directions."
"In a certain canyon, they faced an enemy several times their own. Even though they knew they would die, no one was timid in fighting."
Speaking of this, Li Chengqian suddenly couldn't speak anymore.
His voice was trembling as he said, "It was they who fought for the Tang Dynasty with their own lives to create such a peaceful frontier for the Tang Dynasty."
"You are very good, I remember you..."
"But remember, if I hear you say who deserves to die and who doesn't deserve to die again in the future."
"I will make your life worse than death..."
After the words fell, Li Chengqian raised his hand and said loudly: "Everyone, keep moving forward. If anyone blocks the way, kill them."
Hearing Li Chengqian's shout, the soldiers of Qianzi Camp shouted loudly: "Kill! Kill! Kill!"
Now, who dares to stop him?
Not long after, Li Chengqian arrived outside the government office.
Li Yuan's personal bodyguard Li Yu was already waiting there.
He lowered his head and glanced at Li Chengqian, his eyes full of excitement.
Obviously, he heard what Li Chengqian said just now.
And it was only at this moment that he understood why Li Yuan liked him the most among the grandchildren.
Li Yu knelt down on one knee and intervened: "General, please see His Highness the Crown Prince!"
Immediately afterwards
, a group of guards behind him also knelt down on one knee, cupped their hands and said: "See His Highness the Crown Prince!"
Obviously, until now, they were completely convinced by Li Chengqian.
Then, Li Chengqian no longer hesitated and walked straight into the government office.
…
Inside the government office.
Li Yuan sat at the main seat and drank tea quietly.
Li Chengqian was standing in the hall.
Grandfather and grandson were both silent.
After a long time, Li Chengqian was the first to speak: "Grandpa Huang, what happened yesterday did not frighten you, did it?"
"That's what you said."
"I actually look down on your grandpa."
Li Yuan raised his head slightly and said: "I think back then, when I led the army to conquer the east and west, you were not even born yet."
Hearing this, Li Chengqian scratched his head in embarrassment.
He said: "That's true. Back then, Grandpa Huang was so heroic that just one person was enough to make a city surrender."
Hearing that Li Chengqian was flattering him like this, Li Yuan also laughed.
He said: "Okay, stop flattering me."
"It's you, boy, who gave me such a big surprise this morning."
"The people outside are clamoring and asking me, the Supreme Emperor, to give them an explanation."
Li Yuan looked at Li Chengqian in the hall and said, "Tell me, how should Grandpa Huang punish you?"
"Of course it's up to Grandpa Huang to make the decision."
Li Chengqian smiled and said: "No matter how you punish your grandson, your grandson will recognize it."
"You know how to scheme."
"You know that Grandpa Huang can't bear to punish you, right?"
Li Yuan rolled his eyes, then stood up slowly and said, "But, this matter is indeed not a big deal."
"How many emperors have killed several people without fail?"
"It's just a fact that you behave like this It’s not what it should be.”
Li Yuan said seriously: "At the very least, you cannot order killings in public."
"My grandson doesn't want it either."
"It's just that these assassins are really bold."
Li Chengqian pursed his lips and then said: "My grandson did this just to teach them a lesson."
"This is not how lessons are given."
"Aren't you putting yourself on the fire to roast?"
"When we get back to Chang'an City, you see, those civil servants will definitely have to help you a lot."
Li Yuan shook his head and sighed: "But that's all, you are my grandson. Grandpa Huang will ask someone to help you solve this matter."
Hearing this, Li Chengqian was naturally happy.
He said: "Then grandson, I would like to thank Grandpa Huang for your help."
"Look at your smile."
"How does this look like a future emperor?"
Li Yuan walked up to Li Chengqian, raised his hand and patted his shoulder and said: "But the fact that you can do these things is enough to prove that you have the heart and courage."
"And there aren't many things your grandpa Huang can do to help you. You have to walk your own path in the future."
"There are so many dangers and difficulties in this, you'd better learn it now."
"After all, in the future, no one, whether your father or I, can always be by your side to help you."
After saying this, Li Yuan took a deep look at Li Chengqian.
Then, he stepped out of the room and whispered a few words in Li Yu's ear.
Li Yu did not hesitate after receiving the order, and immediately turned around and left the government office.
Seeing this scene, Li Chengqian also knew that he didn't have to worry about this matter.
Who is Li Yuan?
That is the Supreme Emperor.
And he was the man who single-handedly established the Tang Dynasty.
Even if he retreats behind the scenes, the things he holds in his hands and his own influence are not comparable to ordinary people.
