He ordered me to come quickly. -This is the right answer.
About imperatives and their use in indirect speech:
- Imperative sentences are orders/requests. (Eg)- Please open the door. (or) Close the window.
- The sentence given here is an imperative sentence. That is, there is no subject and the statement could be a request/ order/ advice.
- The sentence that is given in direct speech must be changed into indirect speech.
- Here it is an order. We can introduce the subject 'he' and convert it into reported/ indirect form.
- When a sentence is changed into indirect speech, the comma and quotation marks must be removed and the words 'He ordered me' must be used.
- Then the tense must be retained. As it is an imperative sentence we must use infinitive form of the verb.
- That is the verb 'come' becomes 'to come' in reported form.
- Hence the answer is: He ordered me to come quickly
