Datang: Ten Years of Proton, Leading an Army of Millions to Return

"thump--"

Just when the two men walked in front of the commoner, the commoner suddenly fell to the ground with a bang and lay motionless on the ground.

"This……"

A Dayan soldier hesitated, but still mustered up the courage to turn the man over and then lifted the black cloth that wrapped him.

"Pah! A patient like this! What bad luck!"

The black cloth was lifted, revealing the man's true face. The two men took a closer look, then groaned and quickly stood up.

Although they didn't know what disease the man in front of them had, his appearance didn't seem to be very good! If he had any serious illness, they would be in trouble.

"Damn it! Let go!"

The two were about to turn around and leave, but the person behind them opened his eyes at some point and grabbed their trouser legs.

"what's the situation?!"

They wanted to shake off the hand covered with pus, but suddenly they felt a strange force coming from their feet. They lost their balance and were knocked to the ground.

"You...don't come over!"

Amid the panic of the Dayan soldier, the man crawled towards him, as if trying to catch him and hold him.

"Damn it! Since you insist on doing this, don't blame me for being cruel!"

Another soldier struggled to get up and looked at the man walking towards his companions, a stern look on his face.

He raised his foot and stepped heavily on the man's hand.

The man cried out in pain, but he had no strength to let go of his outstretched hands.

"This is really bad luck! Get him away quickly!"

The soldier looked at the man with some disgust.

"Go away now! Otherwise, don't blame us for being rude!"

Another soldier took over the conversation, waving his sword and speaking in a very unfriendly tone.

Although the man stood up slowly, he suddenly rushed forward fearlessly.

A moment later, a corpse appeared on the ground, but there was no trace of pain on the corpse's face. Instead, there was a look of relief.

On the other hand, the two Dayan soldiers had some pus on their bodies.

A similar scene occurred in many corners of the royal city. The smallpox virus quietly lurked in the bodies of the people in the city and even the soldiers of Dayan.

In Guo Shoujing's tent, the King of Goguryeo felt Guo Shoujing's gaze and an invisible pressure arose spontaneously.

He is not a mediocre person. As soon as he knew about Hui Zhen's affairs, Guo Shoujing called him over. There must be some connection between the two!

"King of Goguryeo, right? Do you know why the Prime Minister asked you to come here?"

Li Kuan sat aside with a raised brow, turning the teacup in his hand and spoke softly, with no emotion to be heard in his words.

"I don't know..."

The King of Goguryeo raised his head when he heard the voice and broke out in a cold sweat.

He met Li Kuan's gaze and suddenly had a feeling.

All my thoughts are under Li Kuan's eyes and there is no place to hide!
"Humph!"

Li Kuan snorted coldly, with a sharp aura and murderous intent, he pressed towards the King of Goguryeo from all directions.

"thump--"

He couldn't bear it any longer and collapsed on the ground, his back soaked.

"Snapped!"

"I'll give you one more chance! If you still can't remember it, not only will you lose your throne, but you may even lose your head!"

The teacup in Li Kuan's hand suddenly exploded, and the fragments scattered all over the ground seemed to be telling the truth of Li Kuan's words.

The King of Goguryeo glanced at Guo Shoujing out of the corner of his eye, only to find that he also had a gloomy expression on his face, and had no intention of stopping Li Kuan. Now what Li Kuan said was also his opinion!
"I...I really don't know...Even if Your Majesty kills me on the spot, I still don't know!"

Even though he was very scared and thought he would be killed on the spot, how could he dare to admit it?
If he refuses to admit it, and Li Kuan has no conclusive statement, there is still room for maneuver.

But if he admitted it himself, then he would be very close to death!
"There is an epidemic in the city. Do you know about this?"

Guo Shoujing glanced at him, and the expression of the King of Goguryeo made him even more suspicious.

“I… don’t know…”

When the King of Goguryeo heard this, a strange look flashed in his eyes, but he quickly hid it and shook his head.

Sure enough! Hui Zhen's plan was still not right! A clue was discovered so quickly!
But from what Guo Shoujing said, it seemed that they didn't know the truth.

"It is said that the capital is at the feet of the emperor, and everything is under his sight. As the king of Goguryeo, how could you not know about the affairs of the imperial city?"

Guo Shoujing's face became increasingly gloomy, and he raised his hand and slammed it heavily on the table.

The seemingly solid table groaned weakly, and then several cracks appeared.

"Prime Minister, please calm down! Prime Minister, please calm down! I really don't know! Even if I were given ten times the courage, I would not dare to lie to you!"

The King of Goguryeo had already made up his mind and denied it flatly. When he saw Guo Shoujing getting angry, he immediately fell to the ground, looking terrified and pretending to be extremely innocent.

"Just assume you don't know! How do you plan to solve this matter?"

Li Kuan saw the strange look that flashed across the eyes of the King of Goguryeo earlier, and now he pretended to be innocent.

Li Kuan sneered: "Don't you know? That thing has already happened. If you can't solve it well, you will end up with the same fate!"

"We must resolve this matter properly, otherwise His Majesty and the Prime Minister will be disappointed!"

The King of Goguryeo had an unnatural expression on his lowered face, but then he patted his chest and spoke.

"Very good! If you can't find out who is behind this, you know the consequences!"

The gloom on Guo Shoujing's face dissipated a little.

"Yes!"

The King of Goguryeo bowed and then slowly retreated, giving Li Kuan a subtle and deep look as he left.

"Your Majesty, do you think the King of Goguryeo really doesn't know about this?"

Guo Shoujing looked at the direction where Goguryeo left, and for a moment he could not see clearly.

"It doesn't matter whether he knows or not... As long as he wants to stay alive, he will rack his brains to find a solution."

………………

At night, in Li Kuan's tent, the female general ordered people to prepare a table of delicious food and wait for Li Kuan to come back.

Xiao Yuanyuan and Changle were standing aside, quietly drooling over the delicious food. "Sister! Can we eat now? I'm hungry... Look, my stomach has gotten smaller!"

Xiao Yuanyuan stared at a big fragrant chicken drumstick in front of her, swallowed her saliva, and then touched her round belly pitifully and said to her.

"Ah? Xiao Yuanyuan? Didn't you just eat the snacks I brought you? Mi said they were delicious and ate several of them in a row! She even ate all of mine."

"I've broken my stomach!"

Changle, who was standing beside him, pouted and said with some complaints.
"Uh... no way. Sister Changle, you remembered it wrong."

Xiao Yuanyuan suddenly became a little flustered, her eyes flickering. Seeing the smile on the female general's face on the other side, she gave Changle several winks.

"No! How could I remember it wrong! Those snacks were made for me by my father himself! Are there any crumbs around your mouth that you haven't wiped clean?"

Changle didn't seem to understand what Xiao Yuanyuan meant, and pointed at her little face and said.

"This...this...this is what I ate yesterday, and I didn't wipe it clean. Whatever! I'm just hungry!"

Xiao Yuanyuan quickly covered her mouth, but the smile on the female general's face became even bigger. Seeing this, she simply stopped covering it and said with a pout, feeling a little aggrieved.

"Girl, your brother-in-law hasn't come back yet! We can't not wait for him!"

"Just bear with it for a while! I'll leave the big chicken leg for you!"

She touched Xiao Yuanyuan's head lovingly and said softly.

"Humph! What a jerk my brother-in-law is! He hasn't come back even after dark! I'm left starving here! I'll teach him a lesson when he comes back!"

When she heard Li Kuan's name, Xiao Yuanyuan suddenly asked for it and said angrily.

The little face is puffed up, round and chubby, and extremely cute.

"What? Sister Yuan? Who are you going to teach a lesson to? Which bastard messed with our Sister Yuan? You must be tired of living!"

Just when Xiao Yuanyuan wanted to mutter to herself for a while, a voice came from outside the door. Who else could it be but Li Kuan?
"Hmph! Damn brother-in-law! You're willing to come back?! Look at your sister, she's been waiting for you here for so long! She's been looking outside with her neck craned!"

When Xiao Yuanyuan saw Li Kuan coming back, a look of joy appeared on her face. She stood up and wanted to throw herself into Li Qiu's arms.

But when he ran to the side, he suddenly remembered that he was still sulking, so he stopped halfway and said with a pout.

"Ah"

The female general took off her armor for Li Kuan. When she heard Xiao Yuanyuan's words, she couldn't help but smile. Then she pointed to the saliva on Xiao Yuanyuan's mouth and looked at the big chicken leg on the table over there.

"Sister Yuan, isn't it that the Prime Minister wants to talk to me about something? Otherwise, I wouldn't have come back so late. But I also prepared something delicious for you!"

Li Kuan immediately understood what was happening and walked up to Xiao Yuanyuan and picked her up.

"What? There's something delicious? Where is it?"

Xiao Yuanyuan could no longer be careful and saliva started to flow from the corners of her mouth. She looked at Li Kuan with her big eyes, trying to find the delicious food in his mouth.

But after searching for a long time, she didn't see even a shadow, and her little face couldn't help but look a little disappointed.

"Look, this is what I carefully prepared for you! A unique and delicious big chicken drumstick!"

Li Kuan carried Xiao Yuanyuan to the seat and pointed at the big chicken leg and said.

"Hmph! Damn brother-in-law! I'm not a child! Don't think I'm so easy to please! This was clearly prepared by my sister, how could it be prepared by you?"

Xiao Yuanyuan stretched out her little hand and picked up the big chicken leg. She opened her mouth and was about to bite it without saying a word, but she suddenly reacted and said angrily.

"How could I lie to Sister Yuan? How dare I? This is what I asked your sister to prepare especially for you! If I didn't tell her, you wouldn't be able to eat the delicious big chicken drumstick! If you don't believe me, ask your sister!"

Li Kuan said this seriously and secretly gave her a look.

"Sister, is that so? You can't help your stinky brother-in-law to deceive me, okay? Otherwise, I won't like you anymore!"

A hint of suspicion flashed across Xiao Yuanyuan's big, watery eyes. She stared at Li Kuan for a long time, but did not find any flaws.

"This... is indeed the case."

She looked at the two of them and a smile came to her face.

On the side, little Changle looked at Xiao Yuanyuan gnawing on a big chicken leg in Li Kuandi's arms with great envy, his expression a little depressed.

Of course, what she envied was not the big chicken drumstick, but the smiles on Xiao Yuanyuan and Li Kuan’s faces.

Her father was very busy with his daily affairs, and although he loved her very much, he did not have a brother-in-law to accompany her for eating, drinking and having fun like Xiao Yuanyuan did.

……

As the night deepened, the faint light of the fire outside the tent came in, and the table of delicious food had already turned into a mess.

Xiao Yuanyuan and Li Kuan, two foodies, one big and one small, slumped on the ground, touching their bulging bellies, and both gave up.

………………

Inside the Goguryeo Palace.

"My king, why did you summon me here so anxiously?"

The Goguryeo general hurried into the hall and walked towards the Goguryeo king who was sitting on the throne.

Sitting on the throne, the King of Goguryeo had a worried look on his face. His furrowed brows and lifeless pupils showed that he was in a very desperate situation.

"As for Huizhen's matter... I don't know how the Tang Dynasty found out about it... Guo Shoujing has already told me... If it's not resolved, someone will be killed!"

The King of Goguryeo had an extremely ugly expression on his face. He had originally thought of turning a blind eye to it. If Huizhen really succeeded, he would also enjoy the success.

But he didn't expect that the matter would be exposed so quickly. If it wasn't handled properly, his life would be in real danger!

"Your Majesty...I felt that this matter was inappropriate even before the general..."

The general felt helpless. He had advised the King of Goguryeo a long time ago, but the King would not listen. As a subject, he could do nothing.

Now that Da Yan is pursuing him, what ability does he have to help the King of Goguryeo escape from trouble?

"Don't say these useless things! Do you know where Huizhen is? Hurry up and secretly send him to the palace!"

The King of Goguryeo was a little annoyed and waved his hand to interrupt him.

"this."

He had not seen Huizhen since they parted that day. Where should he go now to find someone for the King of Goguryeo?
"Hey...you hurry down and make arrangements! Find Huizhen! Also, don't let Dayan know that I condoned Huizhen's actions, otherwise we will all be in trouble!"

The King of Goguryeo sighed and spoke anxiously.

At this point, he didn't want Guo Shoujing to wait too long! He didn't want the epidemic to break out!
Two hours later, Huizhen appeared before the King of Goguryeo.

"My dear king, does it feel very comfortable to bow down before the Tang Dynasty?"

The madness on Huizhen's face was still there. He saw that the King of Goguryeo did not bow or kneel, and he did not show any respect at all, and his tone was extremely frivolous.

"Huizhen! You! Are so outrageous!"
