Chapter 79:

At this point, Li Er was far from being the Heavenly Khan who united various tribes to pay tribute. To be honest, the state of the Tang Dynasty in the fourth year of the Zhenguan era was not particularly stable. Despite the Tang Dynastys military strength extending to various regions, with numerous frontier commanderies established around the periphery

Many barbarian tribes didnt truly respect the empire, fearing the Tangs military might. In the years following Li Ers declaration as emperor, the Tang Dynastys military campaigns had been relentless.

Not only dealing with enemies like the Turks but also facing internal challenges like Li Yis and Liang Shidus rebellions, Li Er had little respite in these years. Nevertheless, Li Er had never been one to fear any adversary.

He sometimes longed for enemies to combat, as he felt somewhat lonely without them. With the defeat of the Eastern Turks last year, Li Er restored his reputation after the humiliation of the Wei River Treaty.

Using the success of this battle, he regained control over the realm. This year, the Tang Dynasty was unusually peaceful, which Li Er found somewhat unfamiliar. At times, he even wished for dissenting individuals so he could prove himself through achievements.

And not to mention, now that he knew Su Li possessed the potential to become an unparalleled general. With such a son-in-law, it seemed wasteful not to deploy him in battle. Considering all these factors, Li Er unknowingly became deeply engrossed in these matters.

The next morning

Early in the morning, Li Er, who had a restless night, just woke up and headed towards the Princess Mansion.

Your Majesty, the princess, and the consort have just woken up and are getting ready.

Upon hearing the report from the female attendant, Li Er glanced at the already high sun and frowned.

However, the fact that even though they had been married for four months, Changle had been bedridden during this time was understandable.

But why did thinking about this make him even more displeased?This chapter's initial release occurred on the n0vell--Bjjn site.

Li Er waved his hand impatiently, indicating for the female attendant to assist Su Li and Princess Changle while he waited in a gazebo in the courtyard.

After sitting for a while, Li Er suddenly heard a thunderous snort from the neighboring courtyard.

With a smile on his face, he nodded in satisfaction.

This is indeed the magical white horse the young princess mentioned. It truly lives up to the legend! Li Ers excitement was evident.

Li Er didnt understand horse language and completely missed the warning that the White Dragons snort conveyed. On the contrary, as someone who loved horses, encountering such a magnificent horse ignited a desire to try riding it. However, this horse had no harness. For Li Er, this wasnt an issue at all.

He caressed the horses head with one hand and placed the other on its back, attempting to use his strength to mount the horse and give it a try.

Li Ers strength was remarkable, and he was audacious. In his eyes, there was no horse he couldnt ride. Unfortunately, the White Dragon wasnt just any horse!

Li Ers action provoked it entirely.

Want to touch me? Not to mention, youre trying to ride me? White Dragon thought.

This was the last straw for White Dragon.

With a swift movement of its back, Li Er, who was mid-mount, lost his leverage. He felt like he had been struck by a cart from two directions, and his whole body trembled.

His spine trembled, and he felt he could only use about a third of his strength. He fell off the horse.

Luckily, Li Ers martial arts skills were extraordinary, and he landed firmly on the ground, avoiding embarrassment. However, before he could celebrate his fortunate landing, he felt a pain in his chest and staggered backward, eventually falling to the ground.

Seated on the ground, Li Er watched the white horse serenely retract its left front hoof.

A horse actually knocked me down?

Li Er muttered and expressed disbelief, staring blankly at the White Dragon.
