"Mr. Du He, there is a guy from Wangyou Bookstore that has not been found yet."

"My subordinates have sent people to continue searching for them."

"Please rest assured, I will catch the man and leave it to the adults."

In Du Mansion, Chang'an City, Du He looked at his subordinates in front of him with a gloomy expression.

When he heard his subordinates say that a friend from Wangyou Bookstore ran away, a trace of murderous intent flashed in Du He's eyes.

He knew very well that once Zhao Chen knew that he had killed the person from Wangyou Bookstore, he would still have the shopkeeper Huang Zhi who had been following Zhao Chen.

Zhao Chen will never let him go.

At that time, Du He just wanted to teach Huang Zhi a lesson.

Who knew that he kicked his internal organs with one kick.

He died directly in front of himself.

Thinking of Zhao Chen's methods, Du He was a little worried at this moment.

If Zhao Chen really knew that it was Du He who moved it, let alone Li Tai, even the emperor might not be able to stop him.

Before, Zhao Chen dared to kill two officials at the entrance of Lingyan Pavilion.

If Zhao Chen knew that he had killed him, he would be afraid that he would rush to his Du Mansion to kill him Du He?

"It's been a few days since I came to report today. You want to die, right?" Du He looked at his subordinates in front of him with a cold look and said angrily.

"I don't dare to do it. I am really the old shopkeeper of Wangyou Bookstore. I don't know where to get the Sky Cannon and arrest my brothers together were killed by more than ten people on the spot."

"That guy was missing while the chaos was in trouble."

"I guessed that he should have gone to Jiangnan to look for Zhao Chen." The subordinate knelt on the ground and explained to Du He.

At this moment, when he thought of the shopkeeper of Wangyou Bookstore and detonated the sky cannon on his body, his heart was still trembling.

"Then why don't you catch someone quickly. Let me tell you, if that bastard really told Zhao Chen about the matter."

"I'm dead."

"But before I die, I will definitely kill you trash."

"Get out!" Du He shouted angrily.

The subordinates ran away without daring to turn their heads back, leaving Du He standing there with anger and fear on his face.

Du He himself didn't know when he started to be so afraid of Zhao Chen.

He regretted it a little at this moment, and he shouldn't have opposed Zhao Chen at the beginning.

Look at Changsun Chong, wasn’t he also an enemy of Zhao Chen?

But now...

Isn’t it just that I admit my mistake with Zhao Chen, but now it’s so prosperous.

But Du He also understood at this moment that he and Zhao Chen must be unable to resolve it.

Among the two, someone must die in this matter.

"Zhao Chen!"

"Zhao Chen!" Du He gritted his teeth and muttered Zhao Chen's name twice.

...

"Your Highness, a military newspaper came from the front."

"Zhang Liang and Xu Shiji led their troops to retreat fifty miles, and the border areas have all fallen under the iron hooves of Goguryeo."

"It will take three days for Cheng Yaojin and Qin Qiong to arrive."

"But the border fortifications were lost and reinforcements arrived, I probably couldn't fight back as soon as possible."

In the East Palace, Fang Xuanling and Li Tai were reporting on the border war.

Li Tai sat on the soft cushion in the study, listening to the news brought by Fang Xuanling, the pen in his hand also paused.

"I have only been in a few days, and I have retreated fifty miles?"

"What are Zhang Liang and Xu Shiji doing?"

"I pass on the orders of this palace to take down Zhang Liang and Xu Shiji, return to Chang'an to question the crime, and order the son-in-law Chai Shao to command the troops, and be sure to beat the bastards of Goguryeo back." Li Tai slapped the pen in his hand heavily on the table and said angrily.

Li Tai also wanted to take this opportunity to make himself firmly as the prince.

I thought I was caught off guard by Goguryeo.

Unexpectedly, before the Tang Dynasty border army took action, Goguryeo punched himself first.

Li Tai is a little confused now.

Li Tai felt panic when he thought about the consequences he might face once the emperor returned to Chang'an.

The Tang Dynasty border troops were defeated, but they started the battle first.

If this is spread, I am afraid it is not to curse the people of the world to death.

"Your Highness, the Crown Prince, it is inappropriate to change the generals in the last battle."

"If the army is newly defeated, if it acts like this, it may cause turmoil in the morale of the army and will be really unfavorable to resist the Goguryeo army." Fang Xuanling advised Li Tai.

Fang Xuanling felt that Li Tai was really a bit awkward.

The army had just been sneak attacked by Yuan Gai Suwen, and at this time, Zhang Liang and Xu Shiji were escorted back to Chang'an.

Isn't that going to get out of place?

If this continues, it is probably difficult for the army to even defend.

By then, the morale of the army will disperse, and the Tang Dynasty will not know how much land will fall under the iron hoof of Goguryeo.

"What do you think of? My father is back. If this war is lost, how can I explain to my father?" Li Tai looked at Fang Xuanling, with a little panic in his eyes.

Fang Xuanling frowned.

Li Tai's mind is so unstable. Compared with Zhao Chen, it is clearly the difference between heaven and earth.

If the emperor hadn't asked him to help Li Tai supervise the country, how could Fang Xuanling come here?

"Let the army bear the burden first, wait for reinforcements, and then find another solution."

"As for what the prince said just now, if you want to be punished, you can only be punished by one person, and you cannot be charged with two people at the same time."

"As for whom to be offended, the prince will consider it himself." Fang Xuanling said.

Fang Xuanling didn't want to say the next two sentences.

If Li Tai had not made the argument and had to go to war against Goguryeo at this moment, how could this day happen?

But Li Tai is the prince after all, and he cannot completely ignore his face.

"When will the father come back? Is there any news coming?" Li Tai did not say what had happened before, but asked Fang Xuanling about the emperor.

Li Tai actually wanted to know when Zhao Chen would come back to Chang'an.

He checked all the industries under Zhao Chen's command, and if he didn't prepare before Zhao Chen came back.

I'm afraid that the prince, he will be dealt with miserably by then.

Besides, Du He, that bastard, even killed Zhao Chen's shopkeeper.

This is clearly a matter of seeking death by oneself.

Fortunately, Fang Xuanling didn't know what to do, otherwise Li Tai wouldn't know what to do.

"I don't know yet, but it will take at least half a year to go out for Jiangnan. Now it's only less than four months."

"It should take some time." Fang Xuanling said, but he didn't know Li Chengqian's little thoughts.

...

The sudden noise on the official road made everyone alert.

At this moment, it was already dark, and I could only see the torches that were constantly lit in front of me.

"Zhao Chen, I know you are here, so I will give you a chance to come out, otherwise I will kill them." Wei Ting's voice came into the mountains.

Everyone looked along the vague light and saw Wei Ting holding a sharp blade on the official road ahead.

In front of him, Li Yuanji was tied up on the ground.

and other ordinary people in the village.

Everyone's mouth is blocked with a strip of cloth.

Li Chengqian was also tied up and hung on a tree next to the official road.

"Zhao Da, they don't know how they discovered us."

"The way out that I just came in has been blocked."

"For the sake of the present, I can only walk into the mountain." Cheng Chumo came back in touch with the dark and told Zhao Chen about the current situation.

"Can't leave." Before Zhao Chen could speak, the emperor said in a deep voice.
