Datang: Showdown, your father and I are Li Shimin

Chapter 96
The messenger trembled in fright, and he and Changsun Wuji looked into the depths of the palace at the same time.

"Could it be... that lightning struck His Majesty's back garden?" Changsun Wuji stared straight at the direction of the loud noise.

After being stunned for a long time, the messenger hurriedly picked up the wooden tablet that had fallen on the ground, while Changsun Wuji shuddered violently as if remembering something.

"It's broken! Your Majesty seems to be in that direction!" Changsun Wuji was horrified, the messenger and Changsun Wuji suddenly looked at each other, and their complexions suddenly turned pale.

Changsun Wuji grabbed the horse's reins suddenly: "Go! Follow me to find His Majesty!"

As they said that, the two of them quickly got on their horses, adding up to nearly three hundred catties, the two eight-foot strong men immediately dented the horse's back.

The single saddle that can only fit one buttock at this time, although the crotch of the stuck Changsun Wuji and the orderly soldier hurt, but they didn't care so much. As soon as the two buttocks sat firmly, Changsun Wuji suddenly raised the reins in front of him, and sat on the saddle. The orderly behind him slapped the horse's ass hard.

"Snapped!"

The horse let out a crisp neigh, raised its hoof, and hurriedly ran towards the rear of the imperial city.

At this time, on the streets of the imperial city, patrolling soldiers saw two big men riding on the same horse, the former shouted: "I am the eldest grandson Wuji, don't stop me."

The latter waved the emergency flag behind his back and yelled: "Eight hundred miles urgent, anyone who blocks it will be shot to death!"

The two blushed and roared while galloping their horses in the imperial city. At the same time, the tearing pain from their crotches made the two of them gasp, especially when the horse was always running. It was to lift the two of them into the air and smash them heavily on the saddle.

At the same time, the gunpowder mine research and development base where Li Ze is located.

Li Er and Li Er lowered their heads and stood on the edge of a huge circular pit.

The surrounding soil was extremely soft, and the pottery fragments at the bottom were deeply embedded in the soil.

This explosion not only refreshed Li Er's cognition, but also refreshed Li Ze's cognition.

Originally, this can was only two-thirds full because it was a test explosion, and Li Ze himself did not expect that this thing is so powerful!

In Li Er's mind, apart from the tinnitus and the rumbling sound of the explosion, there was another sentence lingering in Li Er's ears:

"And the explosives Wei Chen made are only the size of a human head, and are five times more powerful!"

This is what Li Ze boasted to Li Er when the dust exploded before, but he didn't take it seriously at the beginning.

"Five times bigger...five times bigger..." Li Er subconsciously repeated what Li Ze had bragged about before.

Li Ze was also frightened by the thoughtful Li Er, and he stretched out his hand and shook Li Er's eyes up and down, and at the same time shouted: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Don't scare me, Your Majesty! If you are so scared , Am I going to be sentenced to death!"

"His Majesty!"

Li Ze grabbed Li Er's arm anxiously, wanted to shout, but was afraid that Li Er would scare him to death on the spot, wanted to shake Li Er, but was afraid of being seen and said that he did not pay attention to the etiquette of monarchs and ministers.

At this time, there was a rush of horseshoes in the distance. Changsun Wuji and the messenger saw Li Er standing still like a statue, as well as the huge deep pit on the ground and the somewhat scorched ground. They subconsciously thought that Li Er Was struck by lightning.

Changsun Wuji pulled the reins abruptly: "Woo——"

So he hurriedly jumped off the horse, and rushed over regardless of the tingling and numb crotch, and shouted in a trembling and crying voice: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty, you must have nothing to do!"

This miserable roar made Li Er and Li Ze startled at the same time, and their hearts twitched violently.

"Drink——" Li Er took a sharp breath, and suddenly felt a stabbing pain in his chest, and his whole body staggered back and forth.

Changsun Wuji was also confused when he saw that Li Er turned his head, and there was no charred face or smoking curls in his hair.

"What's the situation? Your Majesty really has the body of a dragon, can't even thunder be hurt?" Changsun Wuji muttered to himself.

However, Li Er was so frightened that he wanted to kill someone.

Seeing that it was his brother-in-law, Li Er shouted angrily: "Changsun Wuji! Are you trying to scare me to death!"

The orderly rubbed his numb crotch, and hurriedly walked towards Li Er. One leg had just been bent halfway, but the tearing crotch was pulled by the sharp pain. The orderly gasped and fell to his knees suddenly. On the ground, with a distorted expression, he held up the wooden tablet and said, "Your Majesty... urgently report at the border, Tubo may attack Datang!"

The orderly gritted his teeth and grinned ferociously at Li Er, Li Ze, Changsun Wuji and the others, extremely embarrassed.

Hearing this news, everyone present turned pale and exclaimed at the same time: "What?"

Li Er, who had been hit countless times in a row, was rubbing his violently heaving chest while holding onto the wooden tablet, and his eyes quickly glanced at the wooden tablet.

Standing respectfully behind Li Er, Li Ze looked through his shoulders and stretched his neck like a goose to look at the writing on the wooden tablet.

At this time, all the alchemists simply dealt with the wet crotch, and walked towards Li Er with their legs crossed.

"Your Majesty, the Tubo envoys wanted to enter the Tang Dynasty, but were stopped by the border guards. According to General Xu, the Tubo world showed anger and had the intention of breaking in. I am afraid that they wanted to spy on the military like Tang. In the long run, I might attack Datang, so the last general sent back an urgent report to the border!" The orderly adjusted his posture in embarrassment, and knelt on the ground on one knee, but the severe pain in his crotch still made him gnash his teeth and finished speaking This sentence.

"Hiss—" Sun Simiao suddenly took a deep breath to calm his violently heaving chest. He felt anxious like an ant on a hot pot, anxiously waiting for Li Er, Li Ze, Sun Wuji and others to sit and lie. Sweep back and forth across the face.

"What should I do! The gunpowder has just been prepared, and now the Tubo army is about to attack Datang! This...how can this be done?"

Sun Simiao's hands were trembling anxiously, looking at people for a while, and the working area for preparing gunpowder for a while, the wrinkles on his face and eyebrows were twisted into a ball, looking very uncomfortable.

When the other alchemists heard the news, their hearts twitched suddenly, and they looked at Li Ze in horror.

Not long ago, Li Ze said that the purpose of making gunpowder was to prevent Tubo from attacking the Tang Dynasty in the near future. Once Tubo started to attack the Tang Dynasty, even if it was stopped for the first time, it would unite with all the surrounding nations next time. Launch a joint attack on Datang at the same time!

"Damn! We haven't started making gunpowder in large quantities yet, and the enemy is already preparing to invade Datang, what should we do!" Standing behind the crowd, an alchemist shook his sleeves helplessly.

The people around murmured for a while: "Mr. Li's calculations are so accurate! But now time is running out, what should we do!"

After hearing the news, Changsun Wuji stayed where he was like a thunderbolt: "Is Tubo's reaction so fast?"

"How much time did you spend on the way?"

His sharp eyes fixed on the messenger's face immediately, and the messenger hurriedly gritted his teeth and replied, "Going back to Duke Qi, the general will be on the way day and night, a total of two days and one night."

Changsun Wuji frowned suddenly, and subconsciously turned his eyes to Li Ze.

"Mr. Li said that once Tubo is rejected like Tang, it will take at most ten days to attack Datang. Now that it took two days of travel, wouldn't it be..." Changsun Wuji was immediately overwhelmed by his own thoughts. I broke out in a cold sweat.

Li Er also looked at the wooden tablet with a solemn expression, his pupils trembling slightly.

"Tubo's intention to attack Datang is obvious. Doctor Li estimated that it would take at most ten days, but now it has already taken two days. I hope His Majesty will take precautions!" Changsun Wuji hurriedly bowed to Li Er, his expression extremely serious.

After rousing the messenger, Li Er's hand holding the wooden tablet was also trembling slightly.

It's not that I'm afraid, but I didn't expect the battle situation to be so urgent!
Especially since the flowers are not completely safe today, and the gunpowder test has just been completed, the preparation time left for him is only seven days!

"Quickly call all the generals to my study to discuss matters! Tomorrow, all officials above the fifth rank must be like the court!"
