Chapter 11 — The Emperor gave me a wedding, the General publicly proposed me as his concubine, I threw away my veil and left

I've always thought that. That's just the brutality of the border. But if there really exists an additional casualty list. So that means that year there were still people who were not recorded in the official books. It is also possible that there are still words that have never been presented to the court. The Emperor looked towards the Minister of War.

“That year, during the battle to hold the barrier in Bac Canh, who was in charge of the food and grass transportation route behind?”

The Minister of Defense bowed his head lower.

"Your Majesty, that year the general manager of the food and grass line was a former subordinate of the late Ninh Quoc Cong's palace, and is currently assigned to Xu Mat Vien, La Thua Nghiep."

The Emperor's eyes darkened.

“Traditional La Inheritance.”

The army outside the palace immediately received orders. Lieu Thanh Ha's body trembled more intensely. Mother Truong seemed to have completely ignored everything, continuously saying:

“That letter was not written by the lady alone.”

"It's a message sent by Deputy General Han."

“He said, as long as Miss Lam marries into the Luc family, no one will ever pursue the old records of the Lam family.”

"Because when Miss Lam became a member of the Luc family, the Lam family's affairs, General Luc only needed to say a word about household matters, and he could suppress them."

I slowly turned my head. Luc Canh Tham knelt under the light, his face as white as a blade. He looked at me, his voice hoarse.

“I don't know.”

I asked him.

“General Luc, how many things do you still not know?”

His throat moved slightly. But still no answer. Outside, the night became thicker and thicker. Not long after. Forbidden troops to return. The person came and knelt outside the palace door, his voice even more tense than before.

“Your Majesty, La Thua Nghiep is not in the palace.”

"Xu Mat Vien also didn't see anyone."

“Half an hour ago, he left the north gate of the capital.”

The Emperor slowly clasped the letter in his hand.

"Chase."

The army was just about to retreat. Another person came rushing from the palace road.

"Your Majesty, the general guarding the north gate has just sent an emergency report."

“When La Thua Nghiep emerged from the city, in his hand was General Luc's order card.”

The two words "Luc Canh Tham's order" had just been uttered. The whole Tai Chi Palace seemed to be immersed in a cold atmosphere. All eyes simultaneously turned to Luc Canh Tham. He knelt on the ground, his spine still straight. But that straightness has now appeared cracks.

“I have never given an order to La Thua Nghiep.”

The commander of the Forbidden Army presented a copper talisman and a document to the city.

"The general guarding the north gate said that on the bronze tablet there is a hidden symbol of the Vien Tran army engraved."

“The seal at the end of the document is the private seal of General Luc's military camp.”

Luc Canh Tham reached out to receive it. He just took a look. His face immediately became extremely unsightly.

“The seal is real.”

The Minister of Military Affairs took a deep breath of cold air. The Queen spoke coldly.

“The seal is real.”

“So you didn't let him go?”

Luc Canh Tham closed his eyes.

“Half a month ago, my personal seal was lost once.”

The Emperor stared at him.

“Why didn't you report it?”

Luc Canh Tham replied in a deep voice:

"That private seal is only used to mobilize the old department in the military camp, not a military talisman."

“I thought the servants in the palace put it away by mistake, but three days later I found it under the letter judgment.”

The Emperor laughed softly.

“Tonight, the two words you said the most.”

“It's 'think' and 'don't know'.”

Luc Canh Tham bowed his head vigorously.

“God is guilty.”

I look at that bronze plaque.

“Half a month ago…”

“That was also the time when Lady Thai learned of Lieu Thi's existence.”

The Thai lady raised her head, only confusion and pain remained in her eyes.

“Those few days, the palace was truly chaotic.”

“Canh Tham has argued with me many times.”

"The person next to Lieu Thi also went to Luc's mansion and said that she had a stomach ache and the baby was difficult to hold."

Lieu Thanh Ha prostrated herself on the ground, her voice weak.

“Lady, I'm just too scared.”

The Thai lady looked at her. There was no longer any mercy left in those eyes.

“You are afraid.”

"So you drag the whole Luc family into lese majeste?"

Lady Thai's voice choked in her throat. She hugged her chest. Even the second half of the sentence is almost impossible to say.

“You are afraid.”

"So I took the blood of the Lam family's paralyzed people as a stepping stone for myself."

Lieu Thanh Ha was still prostrate on the ground, her cries continued intermittently.

“Lady, I don't have it.”

“I never wanted to harm the Luc family.”

The Thai lady stared at her. In her eyes, there was only a pile of smoldering ashes left.

“It's not that you don't want to harm the Luc family.”

"But you didn't expect the incident to be so noisy that it reached the palace."

Luc Canh Tham knelt to one side, the blue veins on the back of his hand clearly visible.

“Mother.”

The Thai lady did not look at him at all.

“Shut up too.”

Her voice was extremely hoarse.

“I raised you for more than twenty years.”

“Teach your children to observe manners.”

“Teach your children to show gratitude.”

“Teach your children that military merit is to protect humanity.”

“Not to bully a helpless girl.”

“But today.”

“You made me understand.”

"Even the person lying next to my pillow has a heart."

“I don't see it either.”

Luc Canh Tham's face was as gray as ashes.
