ther what Xiao Zhenting said was true or not, at least with him in the Capital, it was impossible for the borders to attack.
Thinking of this, the Emperor was no longer so angry and repulsive towards Xiao Zhenting’s visit.

However, Xiao Zhenting acted first and reported later.
He really did not care about him, the Emperor.

From a sentimental point of view, his authority had been provoked.
It was time for him to punish this enemy general to save the face of the Emperor.
However, from a rational point of view, he could benefit from the other party’s arrival.

But why should the other party let him benefit? The Emperor felt that things were not that simple.

The Emperor narrowed his eyes.
“Tell me, what else is there?”

Xiao Zhenting cleared his throat.
Fortunately, the Emperor of the Great Zhou was stupid and not so cunning.
Otherwise, he would have lost his life many times!

Xiao Zhenting said seriously, “Commandery Prince Li has also returned to the Capital.”


He stopped and did not say anything else.
However, just because he did not say it did not mean that the Emperor would not ask.

On that day, the Emperor ordered Eunuch Wang to go to the Princess Manor and summon Nangong Li over with an imperial edict.

Nangong Li looked at his grandfather in confusion.
Uh… What’s going on? Has his whereabouts been exposed?

“Evil creature! Kneel!”

Nangong Li knelt down.

“How dare you!” The Emperor slapped the table and glared at him angrily.
“Don’t you know that you’ve made a military pledge? You actually dare to come back on your own! How will the ministers look at you! How will the commoners look at you!”

Nangong Li said in a panic, “Grandpa! I’m wronged! I was forced to do this! Grandpa might not know, but that sly Xiao Zhenting actually secretly left the military camp and infiltrated the Capital! I was also worried that he would do something to Grandpa, so I took the risk of being beheaded to follow him!”


The Emperor narrowed his eyes and said, “If you’re worried that he’ll do something to me, why didn’t you tell me directly? To make me vigilant?”

Nangong Li choked.

The Emperor had never been easy to fool.
At least, compared to the Great Zhou Emperor, he was much smarter.
