Abandoned Prince: Summon the Sword God at the beginning
Chapter 49 Zhao Lei and the Northern Sweepers
Li Jiao visited the palace several times but failed to meet the Emperor of Daxia. He thought of going directly to see his father in broad daylight, hoping to thoroughly investigate the old case.
Although Li Jiao was a person whose soul was traveling across time and space, he did not want to bear a false accusation.
Emperor Weilie did not clearly state the prince's true crime in the edict deposing him, but soon, rumors that he had raped his father's concubine spread among the people.
Li Jiao knew very well that he had been completely stigmatized, and it must have been Concubine Cao's work.
This woman wished that Li Jiao would be executed by the emperor, so that her son could legitimately ascend to the throne of crown prince. When he became the emperor of Daxia in the future, she could also be promoted to empress dowager because of her son's status.
However, these days, Emperor Weilie was furious. He was the emperor, but he was forced into a corner by the soldiers of the Saobei Army and signed the "Treaty under the City". He was forced to issue a self-criticism edict to exonerate the Saobei King and his son, and to push the blame of the massacre of the entire Zhao family onto the aristocratic families, especially the Situ family.
Thousands of miles away, Zhao Ling, the grandson of King Saobei, knew nothing about this. He was unaware of the changes that had taken place in the capital, nor did he know that the Saobei Army had been once again controlled by their Zhao family.
He and his party still followed the original plan and headed towards the border between the Great Xia Empire and the Mongol Khanate. There was a mountain range here, which was a no-man's land and a perfect place for them to live.
In the capital of Daxia, the Situ family is the second of the four great families. It used to be ranked behind the Zhao family. When the father and son of the King of Saobei were killed and the Zhao family was wiped out, the Situ family became the strongest family.
After the battle of the capital, the Emperor had no choice but to take action against the Situ family in order to appease the soldiers of the Northern Sweeping Army.
The head of the Situ family was dismissed from all his official posts in the court, and his son Situ Qingshan was sentenced to exile 3,000 miles away. It was he who led the Situ family's personal soldiers to raid the Northern King's residence in the capital and confiscate his property.
Although Situ Qingshan was extremely reluctant, the imperial edict had already been issued and he had to obey. He did not want the Situ family to follow in the footsteps of the Zhao family because of him, but he could not bear to leave his cousin Shangguan Wan'er.
Situ Qingshan thought to himself, "She may not want to let me go, but she wants to see me stand on my own. When I return from exile, she will definitely look at me with new eyes and no longer think of me as a playboy!"
Situ Qingshan is usually cheerful and doesn't seem to care much about the label of a playboy that people put on him, but he tries his best to prove in front of his cousin that he is not a playboy but a real hero.
Shangguan Wan'er said, "Cousin, the road is not peaceful nowadays. Although you have martial arts skills, you must be careful to prevent accidents."
Situ Qingshan thought to himself: "Does my cousin care about me? She still has me in her heart."
At this time, General Chen Feibao, who was accompanying him, arrived. Situ Ming whispered a few words to him, and he immediately went to arrange for the selection of the most elite soldiers.
The Situ family is a super aristocratic family with deep roots in the military. Although Situ Qingshan was exiled in name, it was actually just a formality to save the emperor's face.
After a while, fifteen strong and battle-hardened warriors stood in front of Situ Qingshan.
Chen Feibao said to them: "You will accompany him to Liangzhou, and you must protect the safety of Master Situ. As long as you arrive safely, each of you will receive a military merit.
You must not be lazy on this trip. You must travel early in the morning and sleep at night. You must pay attention to whether the food is safe. You must test for poison and pay attention to any suspicious people. You must try your best to seek benefits and avoid harm. Before arriving in Liangzhou, you must not reveal your identity to avoid unnecessary trouble. "
"We will follow the general's orders and protect you!"
Chen Feibao said, "Go down and get ready. Let's set off after lunch! Don't train today. Save your energy."
After the fifteen soldiers left, Situ Qingshan returned to his bedroom, packed his luggage, and took a nap for a while. Then it was time for dinner.
The head of the family, Situ Ming, asked the chef in the mansion to prepare Xiao Du for his son and the fifteen escorting soldiers. The dishes were much more sumptuous than usual.
Situ Qingshan ate so much that his mouth was full and he started burping.
Situ Ming had people prepare some dry food and fruits for them to carry with them, and also prepared a lot of drinking water.
He pulled his son into his study and said earnestly, "Son, when you go out, never trust strangers."
When Situ Qingshan walked out of Situ Mansion, the accompanying soldiers were already waiting outside the door.
Chen Feibao prepared two good horses for each of them in case of emergency. Situ Qingshan was nicknamed "Young Master on Horseback" in the circle of dandies in the imperial capital. He liked riding horses and hunting very much, so he had no problem riding a horse.
Situ Ming, Shangguan Wan'er, and Chen Feibao all went to see him off. Shangguan Wan'er said, "Cousin, go with peace of mind. Be sure to protect yourself on the way. The best thing to do is to arrive in Liangzhou safely. You must come back alive. I'll be waiting for your good news."
Situ Qingshan pretended to be carefree and said: "Cousin, I haven't been bullied enough by you yet, I will definitely come back!"
Shangguan Wan'er said with a fake anger: "You are asking for a beating, I will definitely stretch your muscles when you come back."
The corners of Situ Ming and Chen Feibao's mouth twitched. They looked at the cousins joking with each other and said nothing.
Chen Feibao said: "Sir, go early and come back early!"
Situ Qingshan said: "Dad, General Chen, cousin, you all go back, see you later!"
Situ Qingshan was the first to mount his horse, followed closely by fifteen Jingnan soldiers. After an incense stick of time, they left the city and headed towards the official road in the direction of Liangzhou.
