Traveling through the Gaowu Tang Dynasty, Li Kuan and Li Shimin became the second sons of the Prince

"Your Highness...write a letter...to your minister?" Han Wei felt that the task assigned to him by His Highness the King of Chu was too important.

"Brother Kuan, I think that letting Han Wei do this may be too hurtful to Lu Dongzan?" Seeing that his father's old subordinate was about to be scolded, Li Siwen had to stand up and smooth things over for him.

"Siwen, you know what I'm going to say next, right?" Faced with Li Siwen's new trick, His Royal Highness the King of Chu immediately gave him a look with a half-smile.

"I know." Li Siwen nodded, then turned his gaze to Han Wei who was still in a daze: "Write a letter, and just say hello to Lu Dongzan - anyway, you have Kuan Ge'er backing you up, what are you afraid of?"

"Yes...Yes!" Han Wei was not stupid. Even a fool could not take the position of the garrison general of Songzhou. "I will go right away!"

After Han Wei finished speaking, he immediately turned around and left the lobby.

"Come back!" His Royal Highness the King of Chu found that this man was indeed not very smart: "Where are the bandits?"

"Your Highness..." Han Wei turned around immediately after hearing this: "I think..." Han Wei didn't know whether he should say the following words or not, but for the safety of His Highness the King of Chu, he still said with a stiff upper lip: "This group of horse bandits should have a great background, or to put it bluntly, this group of people can't be just horse bandits... So, if they haven't committed any crime in Songzhou, we should not take the initiative to provoke them. After all, less trouble is worse than more..."

"Are you really from the Tang Dynasty military?" Upon hearing Han Wei's words, His Royal Highness the King of Chu immediately prepared to roll up his sleeves and start fighting: "Today, I will let you know what it means that evil cannot prevail over good - I will punish you first, and then go find that group of horse bandits -"

“——General!” Before His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu could stand up and give a beating to Han Wei, who had suddenly “gotten his way”, Han Wei’s deputy general suddenly rushed in. After seeing His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu, he immediately prostrated himself on the ground and said, “I pay my respects to Your Royal Highness the Prince of Chu!”

"What's the matter? Tell me quickly!" His Royal Highness the King of Chu still took Han Wei's face into consideration and did not continue the charge, but waited for the other party's next words.

"The group of horses...men who previously defeated the Tubo surprise force have just sent someone to deliver a message saying that their leader wants to pay a visit to His Majesty the King of Chu..." The general's voice became smaller and smaller, and even at the end, it was still trembling.

"No, what are you afraid of?" His Royal Highness the King of Chu didn't believe that there was anyone more domineering than himself in the northwest.

"Your Highness, the messenger said that they were the elite troops under the command of former Sui general Zhang, and their current leader is Pei Xingyan!" After the deputy general finished saying the name of the man who made all the heroes at the end of the Sui Dynasty tremble with fear, the people around him gasped.

"Why are you guys sniffing?" He had already learned from Uncle Dou that Pei Xingyan was still alive, so he was not surprised. "Are you scared?"

"Brother Kuan... that's..." Cheng Chumo was as careless as his father on weekdays, but when it came to the critical moment, he still showed his reliable side: "That's a real enemy of ten thousand people... You must listen to me this time, don't act on impulse, this person... is very dangerous! And the troops he led are Zhang Xutuo's elite troops, they are definitely coming for you..."

"That's right." Li Huairen was just a little slow to react, so Cheng Chumo finished his words first. However, he still echoed from the side: "Chumo really didn't say anything nonsense this time - my father said that Pei Xingyan... except for Uncle Qin who was slightly better than him in his heyday, the rest of the time, even Uncle Yuchi didn't dare to say that he could definitely beat him. And how old was he then? Now... this person is in his prime, I'm afraid in terms of martial arts... there are few rivals in the world..."

"Cough cough..." Among the retainers of His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu, Shan Tianchang, who knew the truth, suddenly coughed twice. He knew that His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu was secretly very happy.

As another insider of this matter, Wang Xuance also covered his forehead and didn't want to speak: Pei Xingyan's coming here must be Dou Gong's intention. So... this person... has probably officially joined the Dou family and become a member of the Dou family's retainers...

It seems that your majesty's previous actions have finally made Lord Dou determined - he vowed to create a more powerful Dou family before His Royal Highness the King of Chu came of age...

"He's not here to pick a fight with me." Sure enough, after hearing what Li Huairen said, His Royal Highness the King of Chu curled his lips and said, "Besides, I have Zhenxuan by my side, so why should I be afraid of the heroes of the world?"

"..." When His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu said this, Zhang Zhenxuan just smiled and said nothing, but the other Dou family servants felt uncomfortable.

How should I put it... His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu is already strong enough, if he brings along Zhang Zhenxuan who is beyond common sense...

Well, even if it's someone else, as long as the bragging involves Taoist Zhang, it's not bragging anymore...

Or to put it bluntly - even if it is the little Princess Sizi who is still in Chang'an eating, sleeping and playing with cats all day, plus the Taoist Zhang in front of him, it is a combination that is close to being invincible in the world.

"Your Highness, please don't..." Seeing that His Royal Highness the King of Chu was getting arrogant again, Gangzi naturally wanted to show some strength, but he suddenly realized something when he was halfway through his words.

Hmm...Fellow Daoist Zhang's gaze towards me right now is a bit dangerous...

In this case... Well, I'd better understand the current situation for the time being...

“Gangzi, you just deserve a beating.” His Royal Highness the King of Chu, who had seen the whole scene, glared at him unhappily, and then planned to go out of the city to meet Pei Xingyan: “Han Wei, prepare the horse for me, I want to leave the city!”

"Yes!" Han Wei was numb at this time: he had originally imagined His Royal Highness the King of Chu to be very powerful, but now it seems that this is still not enough...

That's Pei Xingyan...

And more importantly... those elite troops of Zhang Xutuo led by Pei Xingyan!

Han Wei was stationed in Songzhou. He certainly knew how powerful the Tibetan cavalry was. That group of people could fight against a larger force with a smaller one and easily crush the enemy even though their numbers were at least twice that of the enemy. This alone was not much inferior to the most elite Black Armor Army in His Majesty's hands.

So what is the real purpose of His Royal Highness the King of Chu coming to Songzhou this time?

Is it really as he said, just to find a temporary place for his brothers to stay, and at the same time remind Tubo and Tuyuhun to behave themselves when His Royal Highness the King of Chu is doing important things?

Han Wei had deep doubts about this.

If he were to say... His Highness the Prince of Chu's actions this time... seemed... more like he was gathering his forces to launch a surprise attack...

And where exactly will the carbine be aimed at this time...

Han Wei couldn't even imagine it...
