Datang: I was tricked by the system

"It's not for you, it's for your apprentice Xue Rengui. Don't you see that he likes Princess Changle?" After being taught a lesson, Cao Xiu didn't dare to speak halfway, and quickly expressed his thoughts.

Li Yi glanced outside again, this time he really found Xue Rengui's eyes full of admiration, and immediately understood, "No wonder this guy just came to beg me for mercy. It turns out that he likes Changle."

After thinking about it, Li Yi saw Xue Rengui and Changle, and felt that they were a good match.

Anyway, he was better than that Chang Sun Chong.

but……

"What does this have to do with me? If he has the ability, he can handle it by himself." In short, he will not save Empress Changsun.

He only had ten Rejuvenation Pills in total. At the beginning, Du Ruhui ate one, Shan Xian ate another, and later gave Li Shimin two. He lost one to save old man Li Yuan, and he only had five left. .

When Ge Qing volunteered to come to the desert, in order to save his severed arm, he lost another one.

At present, he only has four pills in his hand, why waste them to treat irrelevant people?

"Master, don't you want Datang?" Unable to guess Li Yi's thoughts, Cao Xiu asked directly, "Let's use the Huichun Pill as a betrothal gift, let Princess Changle marry Xue Rengui, and let Li Shimin use Datang as a dowry , wouldn’t it kill two birds with one stone?”

"It depends on Li Shimin's choice whether he wants a country or a beauty."

Li Yi gave Cao Xiu a white look, "You think I'm stupid?"

The value of a Rejuvenation Pill is equivalent to an extra life and ten years of life, but Datang... In Li Yi's eyes, it is not worth a Rejuvenation Pill at all.

The reason why he didn't take down Datang was not because he couldn't take it down, but because he didn't pay attention to it at all.

Besides, he also wanted to see how far Li Shimin could develop Datang.

"No, master, of course you are not stupid, it's just...why do you want to miss such a good opportunity?"

Li Yi chuckled, "You knock Li Lizhi unconscious and take her down. I don't bother to take advantage of other people's danger."

If he wanted it, he would fight it upright.

"Yes!" Cao Xiu also knew that he said a lot of things that he shouldn't have said today. The master didn't blame him, and he had to be aware of current affairs. After agreeing, he withdrew.

"Remember to let someone take good care of you."

Glancing at Cao Xiu who walked out of the tent, Li Yi added.

When Cao Xiu walked out of the tent, he saw that Li Lizhi had passed out, so he shrugged his shoulders: "Come on, you don't need to be knocked out anymore."

……

Changan.

Lizheng Palace, outside the bedroom of Empress Changsun, after Li Shimin came down to the court, he went straight to this place, and the first thing he said when he entered the door was to ask about Empress Changsun's situation.

"Is your lady better?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, Your Majesty looks better today than yesterday, and she also used some food in the morning." Chunhua replied respectfully.

Li Shimin nodded, "Bring the things up."

After Chunhua answered, she retreated, but Qiuyue was beside her, her face full of worry.

Soon Chunhua came in with a tray, on which were a bowl and a dagger.

Li Shimin got up, picked up the dagger, and cut his wrist neatly. After pouring a bowl of blood, he asked Qiuyue to bandage his wound.

At the same position on his wrist, several similar wounds had already appeared. Li Shimin's face looked pale just after bleeding, but he didn't care at all.

"Quickly, take the blood and serve it to your empress."

"Yes."

After being forced to take the Rejuvenation Pill that day, Li Shimin asked his most trusted imperial physician about the matter, and learned that he had just taken the elixir, and Wang imperial physician felt that the effect of the medicine was still preserved in the blood, and suggested that Li Shimin use blood Give it a try.

If it doesn't work, that's all. If it works, you can take it for three days.

Today is the second day, after Li Shimin learned that Empress Changsun's illness had improved, he didn't feel bad for his own blood at all, and just poured it into a big bowl.

After the wound was bandaged, Li Shimin entered the bedroom of Empress Changsun.

"Erlang, you're here."

"Don't get up, lie down." Seeing that Empress Changsun was about to get up, Li Shimin quickly walked over to stop her, "You and I don't need to care about these empty rituals, just lie down and rest."

Seeing the white cloth wrapped in Li Shimin's hand, Empress Changsun's eyes were filled with distress, "The concubine is a sinner, why should Erlang waste his blood to save me?"

Li Shimin helped the eldest grandson empress to lie down, and said, "You, don't take all the sins on yourself. There is a saying that it is the fault of not raising your father. In the end, this is all my responsibility. I didn't do a good job. A father has not fulfilled the responsibility of being a father."

The pain of losing two sons at the same time is not only experienced by Empress Changsun, but also Li Shimin. In comparison, Li Shimin's pain is no less than that of Empress Changsun.

Now the only thing that makes him feel gratified is that Empress Changsun's body is gradually improving, and he has also seen Changle's letter, but he doesn't think Changle can get the medicine from Li Yi.

Not to mention that the medicine is extremely precious, just because of the tense relationship between Li Yi and Empress Changsun, it is impossible for him to give the medicine to Changle.

So, he had no hope at all.

Thinking of Li Yi.Li Shimin now only has regrets in his heart.

Especially after losing Li Chengqian and Li Tai, he regretted what happened back then.

It's a pity that everything can't be turned back.

……

Half a month later, the Heroic Soul Monument was finally completed, and Li Yi's affairs in the desert had almost been arranged, and besides, he and Lu Ziyu's wedding was approaching, so he had to go back to court.

The next day.

Li Yi stood in front of the heroic soul stele, looked at the towering stone stele, and slowly poured the wine in his hand on the ground, "Soldiers, let's go home today."

"Go home! Go home!!!"

Tens of thousands of soldiers were in full swing, shouting the word "go home" in unison.

Like this, you can take the souls of those soldiers who died in battle back together.

"Clap!"

Li Yi threw the wine jar in his hand to the ground, and shouted: "The whole army obeys the order, let's go!"

Xue Rengui, Cao Xiu, and Yanyun Eighteen Cavalry retreated with the team in an orderly manner.

Ge Qing led a group of soldiers to kneel on the ground, and said in a loud voice: "Respectfully send off Your Majesty, Your Majesty has a smooth journey."

Li Yi patted him on the shoulder, "I will leave the desert to you. After three years, I will see a brand new desert."

After speaking, Li Yi got on his horse and walked away.

"Ge Qing obeys the order and will not disgrace his order." Looking at Li Yi's back, Ge Qing replied solemnly.

The heroic soul stele behind him stands like a watchman in the clouds. This land is destined to become better and better under its watchful eyes, and it will also become full of vitality because of the blood they shed.

And he, Ge Qing, will protect the peace for the soldiers that was bought with their blood!
