Traveling through Du He, Li Chengqian's rebellion begins

It was Li Lizhi's first time seeing fireworks. She was not as excited as Li Yi, Yin Yushan and others, but her face was full of joy.

"Prince Consort Du, you are truly a genius!"

"Not only did you take the lead in developing the thunder bomb, but you were also able to create magical objects like fireworks. You are truly an immortal descending to earth!"

Hearing Li Lizhi's praise, Du He smiled and shook his head.

In the next few minutes, the Taoist priests set off another 20 fireworks, and the whole world was filled with the strong smell of gunpowder.

After the fireworks.

Li Lizhi stared blankly at the night sky, and suddenly she said, "The east wind blows thousands of flowers into bloom at night. It blows down stars like rain."

"..."

"The crowd looked for him a thousand times. Looking back suddenly, the person was there, in a dimly lit place."

After reading the poem.

Li Lizhi said with emotion, "Prince Consort Du, the poem 'Qingyu'an·Mid-Autumn Festival' that you wrote at the Mid-Autumn Poetry Festival in the 17th year of Zhenguan's reign is somewhat similar to the blooming of fireworks."

When she first heard Du He's poems, she just thought the verses were beautiful and the artistic conception they expressed was extremely profound.

But only after witnessing these scenes in person did she gain a deeper understanding of the poems.

Looking at Li Lizhi who was full of emotion, Du He frowned slightly, always feeling that she had something to say to him today.

After gathering my mind.

Du He bowed and said, "Your Highness, it's getting late. We must return to Chang'an now."

"it is good."

Li Lizhi nodded reluctantly.

The two of them walked down the platform and headed towards the carriage side by side.

Li Lizhi suddenly said, "Prince Consort Du, I have a request and hope to receive your assistance."

Looking at Li Lizhi's smiling eyes, Du He guessed what she wanted.

It's nothing more than having a crush on someone.

Du He asked curiously, "Your Highness, please feel free to speak."

A moment of silence.

Li Lizhi said shyly, "This palace and the Imperial Court Doctor Wang Jishan have known each other since childhood, and we were classmates at the Imperial College for many years. We have developed feelings for each other."

"We were enjoying the flowers together these days when we went to the garden. I learned that he was still unmarried, so we decided to get married."

There was a pause.

Li Lizhi bowed and said, "My marriage is not something I can control. Please help me convince my father."

Good guy!

It turns out that Li Lizhi has taken a fancy to that idiot Wang Jishan!

Wang Jishan is the eldest son of General Wang Jun'e of the Left Guard. He is 31 years old this year, tall and handsome, and a very upright person.

However, because Wang Jishan was too upright, asking him to go to a brothel to listen to music was like asking for his life, and he could not play together with this group of people.

This guy is a good man worthy of entrusting your life to!

Du He smiled and said, "Don't worry, Your Highness, I will definitely tell His Majesty about this."

"As for whether Your Majesty will adopt it, I can't guarantee it to you."

Li Lizhi said gratefully, "Thank you, Lord Han Guo."

She was very convinced of Du He's ability and believed that if he personally took action, he would definitely be able to convince her father.

Walk up to the carriage.

Du He stopped and asked, "Your Highness, will you marry Wang Jishan or..."

Although he hadn't finished speaking, his meaning was clear.

For example, Li Lizhi married Changsun Chong because of Changsun Wuji's status as a royal relative, but Wang Jishan's family power was average, so he should not have received the same treatment as Changsun Chong.

Li Lizhi said softly, "The latter."

After she finished speaking, she was supported by her maid and walked into the spacious and luxurious carriage.

Let the king and the princess be good!

After Du He understood the situation clearly, he also got into the carriage.

After leaving the manor, the carriage drove towards Chang'an for another half an hour.

Just as Du He closed his eyes and dozed off, Du Wu's loud roar suddenly came from the front.

"Enemy attack!"

"Zhang Shizheng, take your men and protect the master and the princess!"

"The rest of the brothers, meet the enemy!"

As Du Wu's voice reached them, more than thirty riders surrounded the two carriages, while the rest galloped forward.

There was no panic on Du He's face, he grinned and muttered.

"Old Silver Coin, you're quite courageous."

It has to be said that the people under Changsun Wuji chose a very good ambush location.

In this remote place, he had the fewest people protecting him. Apart from 70 guards, there were only a hundred or so spies from the Eastern Palace.

It is also unknown how many people Changsun Wuji, Yuwen Jie and others will send to attack him.

In front of the carriage.

Du Wu held up his Mo Dao and shouted, "All the bad guys, move aside and search the hillside for any archers!"

"Brothers of the Duke of Han, follow me to kill the enemy!"

In the empty night, the sound of horse hooves rumbled, followed soon by a huge shout of killing.

Half an hour later.

Du Wu rode back to report, "Master, we have killed all 100 of the invading bandits. Many of them committed suicide by biting themselves before being captured."

Only 100 killers were sent?

Who do you look down on?

Du He asked softly, "Have we suffered any casualties?"

Du Wu shook his head and said, "My lord, these thieves are armed with homemade spears, and their bows and arrows are not very powerful. They can't penetrate the armor we wear."

With the support of the master's huge financial resources and connections, these servants wore Ming Guang armor.

How could ordinary weapons possibly penetrate armor?

In addition, they were all cavalry, while most of the invading bandits were infantry, so most of the bandits fell with just one charge.

Du He said with satisfaction, "Du Wu, you will compile a list of the bad guys involved in the operation later and give them 500 coins each tomorrow."

"You have been meritorious in protecting the enemy, and each of you will receive 10 strings of cash as a reward for your hard work."

As soon as these words were spoken, the eyes of the surrounding guards became hot, and they all raised their Mo Daos and shouted.

"Thank you for the reward, sir!"

The guards' roars were so loud that the wolves in the surrounding mountains dared not howl.

They looked at the dark official road ahead and prayed in their hearts that there would be more ambushing thieves.

Maybe if they fight a few times, they will be able to buy a small house in Chang'an.

Li Lizhi's maid came over and asked, "Duke Hanguo, what does Her Royal Highness want to know?"

Du He smiled and said, "A group of thieves attacked me, but they have been eliminated by my guards. Tell Her Royal Highness the Princess not to panic."

"promise."

The maid bowed and walked quickly forward.

Du He said softly, "Du Wu, have the bad guys take the body back to the Wannian County Office and tell Pei Xingjian what happened tonight."

As he said this, he lowered the curtain and continued to rest with his eyes closed.

After receiving the order, Du Wu led the convoy forward while going to find the leader of the bad guys.

An hour later.

Du He first sent Li Lizhi back to the princess's mansion, and then slowly went back.

As for the curfew, it is non-existent.

...

It's quiet at night.

In the mansion of Duke Zhao.

Changsun Wuji sat quietly alone in the lobby, the dim candlelight shining on his face, making him look gloomy and ferocious.

After a long time.

Zhang Sunxun walked in panicked and reported, "Master, the operation has failed!"

"Of the 100 death warriors we sent out, not a single one survived!"
