My father, Li Shimin, requests Your Majesty to become the Retired Emperor.

Unbeknownst to him, Li Chengan had gained a new understanding of the spear.

Li Chengan performed a series of moves before stopping.

He remained calm and composed, without exhaling a breath.

The crowd applauded and cheered.

Li Chengan put the Overlord Spear back in its original position.

Soga no Emishi asked, "Your Highness, do you find this spear easy to wield?"

Li Chengan nodded: "Not bad!"

"If you don't mind, I'm planning to give you this gun as a keepsake."

Upon hearing this, Li Chengan quickly waved his hand: "No, no, no, a gentleman does not take what belongs to others."

How could I possibly accept such an expensive gift from you?

"To be honest, I want to give you this gun because I have a favor to ask."

Upon hearing this, Qin Ying grinned and laughed, "So, after all this time, you have something to ask of our Crown Prince."

"Yes."

Li Chengqian stared intently at him: "Speak, what is it?"

"I heard that Your Highness helped Songtsen Gampo avenge his father when you were in Tibet, so I would like to ask Your Highness to help me take revenge." Soga no Emishi's eyes turned red as he said this.

"Revenge? Who do you have a grudge against?"

"Inugami Oda Sho."

Everyone was surprised to hear this.

Li Chengan was also puzzled: "Aren't you all generals of the Japanese?"

Why fight each other?

"Your Highness, you don't know this, but that Inugami Oda-kumi is really bullying people."

"Oh, how did he bully you?"

Soga no Emishi began to cry before he could even begin his story.

He cried his heart out, tears streaming down his face.

Everyone was stunned. They didn't know what sad thing Soga no Emishi had encountered to be so sad.

Qin Ying laughed until her stomach hurt: "Why are you, a grown man, snorting like that?"

"What exactly happened? Tell me quickly!"

"It's a long story."

It turns out that several years ago, Soga no Emishi had already been highly valued and promoted to shogun by the King of the Ming Dynasty.

One winter, when it snowed heavily, he encountered a man on the street in the snow who had already frozen to death.

Soga no Emishi was also startled. He wondered who this person was and how he could be in such a terrible state.

He checked the man's breath with his hand; he was still breathing.

He personally carried the man to his residence, lit a charcoal fire, and found someone to treat him.

The next morning, the man woke up.

Soga no Emishi came to visit him, and the man got up from the couch, bowed down and said: "My benefactor, Inu-gami Oda-kumi thanks the general."

That person was none other than Inugami Mitaku.

Soga no Emishi helped him up with both hands and asked with concern, "How are you feeling?"

"My condition was caused by being cold and hungry; there was nothing seriously wrong with my body."

"How could a grown man like you be in such a sorry state?"

"Our family has fallen on hard times, and by my generation, we're nothing."

"So what are your plans?"

"I have no other desires, I just ask that the general find me a job so I can at least fill my stomach," Inugami Odakumi pleaded.

Seeing that he was tall and strong, Soga no Emishi asked, "So, what are your skills?"

Inugami Odenkuchi raised his fist: "I'm strong, and I know some martial arts."

Soga no Emishi nodded: "In that case, you can come and work as a common soldier for me for now."

Inugami Odenkuchi prostrated himself on the ground and kowtowed: "Thank you, General."
