The Tsundere System Chasing Wife

Chapter 4 Black-hearted Li He

The next morning, an urgent report came from the border gate that the enemy had invaded and our army had suffered heavy losses, and the court was requested to send troops to support us.

The court officials gathered in the main hall to discuss how to resolve the matter. His Majesty is now seriously ill, so all matters will be handled by the Third Prince.

In the past, Li He always treated officials like them with a gentle and humble attitude, but recently, Li He's attitude has become arrogant and weird, and there is no trace of the past. Those who dare to go against Li He have a miserable end, and even their bodies are not left. His Majesty is also unclear about the situation, and now there is an invasion by the enemy. All officials are in a dilemma and don't know what to do. Of course, some officials don't care. After all, they are now relying on Li He, and no matter how things turn out, it will not affect them at all.

The entire hall was silent, and all the officials kept their heads down and said nothing. At this time, Lin Mo stepped forward and said.

"Your Highness, I would like to ask the army to go north to defend our country."

Li He looked at Lin Mo coldly. If there really were enemy troops, they would not have attacked at this time. It was probably because Lin Mo knew that he was the one who did those things and wanted to strike first.

"General Lin is a loyal and brave man who is not afraid of life and death. He has just returned. If we let General Lin go out again, it will make our country look ruthless. Besides, we have more than one general like you. General Lin should rest well."

"Your Highness, what you said makes sense, but as a general of the Kingdom of Li, I am naturally not afraid of life and death. As long as the enemy is in front of me, I will fight to the front every moment of my life. No matter who dares to invade my territory, my sword will be the first to cut off his neck. Even if I die, I will protect the city of Li! The people!"

Lin Mo's answer made some ministers admire Lin Mo in their hearts and they quickly agreed.

"I second the motion! Your Highness, please allow General Lin to go to the battlefield and protect our territory!"

"War God Lin! He is invincible! He will definitely win back our country! And win supreme glory! I beg Your Highness to let General Lin fight!!"

"I second the proposal!"

"I second the proposal!"

"I second the proposal!"

Li He swallowed hard. He originally wanted to save Lin Mo's life, but he didn't expect Lin Mo to come out and seek death!

Lin Mo, since you want to die so badly, I will make sure you never come back!

On the other hand, Prime Minister Su did not attend the court today on the grounds of being unwell. He took Su Yan and Ling'er out of the city gate in the early morning under a different identity. Some of Lin Mo's former subordinates had been waiting outside the city gate. When they saw Prime Minister Su and his group, they hurried forward to let Su Yan and others get in the carriage.

Lin Mo attached great importance to military intelligence and set out with his army in less than an hour. More than 2,000 people marched out of the city gate amid the cheers of the people.

Li He knew that the sudden urgent report must be Lin Mo's doing, so he immediately sent two teams to confirm the authenticity of the urgent report and the situation in Prime Minister Su's residence.

Those who went out to investigate soon came to Linghe Palace to report the situation.

"Third Prince... the person who was watching Prime Minister Su's residence... died... "

Another guard also said.

"Third Prince, the urgent report is true, but the content is false. The enemy troops over there have been beaten back from the border of Li State by Lin Mo, and they don't dare to come to Li State to cause trouble again."

An exquisite teacup was smashed at the feet of the two guards in an instant, making a loud noise. Li He's eyes turned red with anger. These things were happening silently, so how did Lin Mo discover the clues?

"Lin Mo thinks he's very smart, but I want to see if he can hold on alone. Let the people around him who are ambushing him do it. Anyone who can take Lin Mo's head off and give it to me will be rewarded with a thousand taels!"

"Yes!"

An eunuch stumbled to the Linghe Palace and shouted, "Oh no!" But when he ran in front of Li He, he hesitated and dared not speak, his body shaking constantly.

"Tell me if you have anything to say!" Li He shouted.

The eunuch was frightened by Li He's anger. He knew Li He's methods. It was death either way, so the eunuch made up his mind and said.

"Your Majesty is missing! I searched the entire palace but couldn't find him..."

"Trash! You can't even look at someone!"

"Third Prince, please spare my life! I don't know what happened... In the blink of an eye, His Majesty disappeared..."

The eunuch fell to his knees on the ground and cried miserably.

"roll!"

When the eunuch heard that Li He did not kill him, he quickly stood up and ran out of Linghe Palace.

Li He knew that Lin Mo's performance today was just for him. While he had no time to keep an eye on Su Yan and his father, Lin Mo made a feint to the east and attacked in the west.

"Go and bring me those old ministers who just echoed Lin Mo in the court. Let me see how strong their wings are."

"Yes."

In less than a moment, the ministers were already standing in the Linghe Palace. They all knew why Li He called them over. They raised their chests and looked at Li He without any fear in their eyes.

"Master Zhang, Master Wang, Master Hu, you really put on a good show. Are you really not afraid of death, or are you not afraid of bringing trouble to your family members?"

"What's so scary about death? There's a saying that goes 'die a good death'! Die well! I don't want to cooperate with a heartless person like you who is worse than pigs and dogs. Your father is so good to you, but you put him in a difficult situation. People like you, Li He, should have died in the cold palace, so as not to come out and harm others!" Lord Wang said. His hair was already gray, and his face showed many traces of the years, but Lord Wang's eyes were firm, and he had no intention of admitting defeat.

Lord Zhang looked at Li He's cold gaze, and he walked directly to Lord Wang and said,

"Li He!! You are so bold and reckless! You don't know the seriousness of the matter!! You have committed such a treasonous act! We don't want to be associated with you! You can kill me or chop me up as you wish!"

Li He knew that these two adults had dedicated their lives to the Li Kingdom, and they would return to their hometown to retire in the near future. But why were they so ungrateful? If they were willing to say something flattering, Li He might not bother with them... Why were they unwilling to stand on his side...

There was also Lord Hu, who stood silently in front of the two officials, as if silently saying that if anyone had to die, he would die first!

Lord Hu often quarreled with Lord Wang and Lord Zhang because of their different personal opinions. Unexpectedly, he wanted to protect both of them in dangerous moments.

Li He suddenly laughed out loud towards the sky. No one knew whether he was laughing at their stupidity or at himself.

"Do you think there is really an enemy at the border? It's just that Lin Mo wants to escape to a safe place by himself."

"Li He, Lin Mo is not as shameless as you."

Lord Wang, Lord Zhang and Lord Hu naturally knew what Lin Mo wanted to do. Now it depended on Lin Mo to bring the soldiers from the border back to rescue him.

"Pfft! Hahaha!" Li He saw what they were thinking and laughed out loud, like a madman.

"Then Lin Mo, do you think he can come back alive? He is surrounded by my people. It is as easy for me to crush him to death as it is for an ant. Even if Lin Mo has three heads and six arms, he can't beat two or three thousand swords. And you are all highly respected. Our Li Kingdom still relies on your help. I will not touch you and your families for the time being. Someone, please invite you to the side hall to rest."

"Yes!"

Several guards stepped forward and made a gesture of invitation, but the three adults just stood there motionless.

"Li He! We won't help you! General Lin Mo will definitely come back! And then we'll make sure you die!" Lord Zhang roared.

"Take it down."

"Yes."

Soon the three were taken away, and the ministers who were waiting for Li He outside the door immediately walked into Linghe Hall, knelt on the ground and shouted

"Long live the emperor!"

Li He looked at the ministers with cold eyes. They didn't know whether it was their illusion or not. Why did they look unhappy with Li He? They were sweating profusely.

"From now on, please call me Third Prince. The time has not come yet!"

One of the clever ministers immediately stood up and flattered the emperor.

"Yes! Yes, yes! What the Third Prince said is right. The Third Prince can call me by this name whenever he wants! But we must eradicate the root of the problem. The Third Prince still needs to think it through clearly."

The flattering minister had a grudge against the three ministers just now, and he wished they would be executed immediately! !

Li He gave him another cold look, murderous intent in his eyes.

"Do I need you to teach me how to do things?"

"No! No! No! I shouldn't talk nonsense!"

"Okay, everyone, step back and keep your mouth shut! Don't let me hear anything I shouldn't hear."

"Yes!"

Lin Mo was less than ten kilometers out of the city when the eyes of the soldiers around him suddenly changed and a murderous aura rushed towards him. Lin Mo raised his sword and swung it to knock away the attack, and kicked the attacker directly with his other foot. More than two thousand people surrounded him in an instant.

Lin Mo knew that he could not continue fighting. He could only retreat in order to advance, attack and defend at times, and leave here as quickly as possible.

And these two thousand people were rushing forward without caring about their lives. After a few hours, Lin Mo suffered a lot of injuries. The blood of those soldiers mixed with his own blood, dyeing Lin Mo's whole body red.

Li He said that anyone who could take down Lin Mo's head would be rewarded with a thousand taels. They would never see so much money in their lifetime, and Lin Mo was indeed the god of war of the Li Kingdom. He was really good at fighting. There were only more than a thousand soldiers left out of the more than two thousand people. Those who still wanted to move forward, looking at the pile of corpses under Lin Mo's feet, did not dare to take a step forward. They only heard Lin Mo say coldly.

"Listen carefully, Li He. Leave his head with him first! I will come back to take it!"

After saying that, Lin Mo kicked down the horse-riding soldier closest to him and walked away.

A deputy general shouted hurriedly.

"Hurry up and chase him! No matter how capable Lin Mo is, he will eventually run out of energy! For the two thousand taels of gold! Go for it!"

The blood on that wall of corpses was still hot, and everyone was so scared that no one dared to move!

The deputy general looked at the people present and no one was willing to chase after him, so he spoke again.

"If he hadn't died! Do you think we would still be alive after returning? Go ahead!"

After hearing the deputy general's words, the soldiers had to move forward no matter how scared they were! Yes! If they don't kill Lin Mo! They will be the ones to die when they return! If Lin Mo really leads the troops back to the border, they will still be the ones to die! So Lin Mo can't stay! !

Two months passed in a flash. A man came on a fast horse. The letter said that Lin Mo was dead, with numerous knife wounds on his body. He was finally surrounded by the remaining hundreds of soldiers on the cliff and refused to surrender! Finally, he fell off the cliff. In the envelope was a red amulet stained with blood. It was said to be Lin Mo's personal belongings. It fell when they were fighting with Lin Mo.

Li He picked up the amulet and the corners of his mouth rose slightly. Finally, Lin Mo died, so Su Yan no longer had any thoughts about him. Li He knew that he was no worse than Lin Mo, and Su Yan would definitely like him.

This letter, which was sent back at full speed, should have been sent a month ago. And a month ago, Li He also discovered the traces of Su Yan and the others. Li He was afraid of scaring Su Yan, so he kept his troops in place and did not do anything beyond the line.

"Send someone down to arrange everything. I want to go and welcome Miss Su back in person."

"Yes!"
