The Advent of Idleness Chapter 39 The Visit of King Wen
Taiwei led the victorious army to return to the court, the emperor personally led the civil and military officials at the north gate to greet him, the whole holy city was filled with a kind of joy, thousands of civilians cheered in the middle of the road, it was really a tsunami of mountains and tsunamis, and the sound was continuous.
Far beyond the West Gate, the people of Li Fuzhong at the foot of the pilgrimage mountain also heard it very clearly.
It is rare for Li Xipin not to enter the pseudo-system workshop today, but to sit in the inner hall, "watching" the grand occasion of the holy city.
Taiwei Donglang, who is full of dust but still high-spirited, King Wen, who is full of stubble but is high-spirited, Liu Zhengyuan, who keeps waving his hand and is really stinky and tough, Fa Zhi, who is very serious but excited to the point of enthusiasm, Zhao Mingtang, who has been pointing and pointing by King Wen's side but is also very excited...
In the team, the people Li Xipin didn't know, all of them couldn't hide their excitement, enjoying the glory that belonged to them at this moment!
As an official and a general, he is a soldier who is not less, but he has not been able to return... I'm afraid there are not a few!
The army slowly entered the palace, and Li Xipin withdrew his "gaze" and stopped watching.
Come to think of it, in a few days, there will be many more names on the martyrs' monument on the territory that already belongs to me.
Ay...
"There is no right or wrong in war, but there is a distinction between justice and evil, or the aggressor and the defender, if there is really a mistake, it also starts with me!"
Li Xipin thought so.
......
Unprecedentedly, it was close to noon, but the big court meeting began!
The emperor seems to be eager to commend the meritorious heroes and publicize his achievements!
"This battle against the North Star Kingdom was very difficult, not to mention the strength of the equally powerful North Star Kingdom, but the various obstacles encountered during the period were enough for me and the Manchu Dynasty to reflect on and summarize a lot.
Fortunately, with the help of your ancestors and the efforts of your Aiqing, in... Cough... In short, we won.
The victory of this war was not only a battle for my kingdom to expand its territory and swear to be strong, but also a battle for the foundation of my kingdom's promotion to the dynasty.
For those who have contributed to this battle, I will definitely reward them.
The Taiwei took command of the expedition, led the army to fight, worked hard and made high achievements, and was crowned the Duke of Dongguo, and the land of a county of the Beixing Kingdom of Shiyi; King Wen went to the battlefield on behalf of the royal family, showing my royal prestige, and specially enshrined Prince Wen, the fief was the royal capital of the former Beixing Kingdom and a radius of 3,000 miles;
In addition, in this foreign campaign, Liu Zhengyuan, the son of Liu Shen, the secretary of the household department, Fa Zhi, the son of Fa Yan, the secretary of the criminal department, and Zhao Mingtang, the son of Zhao Zhongren, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, also performed well.
The rest of the rewards are decided by officials at all levels, and then reported to the Ministry of Officials."
As soon as the emperor finished speaking, the civil and military officials naturally saluted and thanked him.
It was even more difficult to hide the excitement of those who were entitled, even including the Tai Lieutenant.
The eighth-class titles of prince, prince of the county, prince of the county, prince of the county, marquis, uncle, son, and male of the kingdom have a long history, but few people can really be feuded, one is because the kingdom territory is not large, the income is not much, and there is no seal.
Second, the emperor's centralization of power is very heavy, and he does not have the force to control everything, so he naturally does not dare to delegate too much power.
Speaking of which, these people were able to seal the city this time, and they have to thank one person.
Li Xipin!
Without the support of the force behind him, thinking about it, the pilgrimage kingdom would have been divided and eaten by several surrounding countries, and the emperor almost slipped out of his mouth in his previous words, and publicized Li Xipin's exploits.
Fortunately, he braked the car in time.
Otherwise, what kind of title should Li Xipin be given?
Even if the emperor doesn't say it, naturally there are people who think about Li Xipin's goodness.
As soon as the court meeting ended, Prince Wen rushed to the Li Mansion outside the west gate of the Holy City with four meritorious men who had just been named first-class viscounts.
These people, no matter how busy Li Xipin is, he will meet them!
"Master Li, long time no see, everything is okay?"
"Brother Li, it's been a long time"
......
"Sit down, it's only been a few months since you went on this expedition, and you've all changed a lot!"
A few people sat in the inner hall of the Li Mansion, constantly polite.
"We are all working hard, how can we compare with Master Li, it's only been a few months, and Master Li's Mansion is very different?"
"Yes, yes, I don't know when Brother Li's huge Li Mansion will be built, and it is indispensable to think about it in the Mingyue Tower."
Prince Wen and Liu Zhengyuan have one mouth, one is polite and the other is gag, and the relationship between the two and Li Xipin is completely different.
Fa Zhi and Zhao Mingtang also wanted to interject, but compared to King Wen and Liu Zhengyuan, their relationship with Li Xipin was more rusty.
"Didn't the palace have a banquet?
Li Xipin glared at Liu Zhengyuan fiercely and said.
"Where can you let go of the reception banquet, how can it compare to the happiness of a few of us sitting together, right?"
Liu Zhengyuan is worthy of being a figure who rose from the trough, and while communicating with Li Xipin, he did not forget to take care of Fazhi and Zhao Mingtang around him.
"That's it, that is, if you don't have to participate in the reception banquet tonight, you can't say that Brother Li will have to break the bill tonight."
Zhao Mingtang is not as good at words as Fazhi, so he naturally took over the words and joked about Li Xipin together.
Li Xipin smiled and worked hard, where would he suffer?
"I heard that several of you have been canonized by His Majesty? But congratulations, aren't you going to congratulate you?"
Belch...
Li Xipin said a word, and the three of them looked at each other, looking very unhappy. When Li Xipin saw this scene, he laughed out loud.
After some joking, Prince Wen finally spoke again, but this time, it was less of a joke and more serious.
"I can have today, thanks to the help of Master Li, now the prince is reflected on the prince's palace, and my wish has been fulfilled, under the advantages of the other, the prince is no longer able to fight with me, I am here, I sincerely thank Master Li.
This time with the army, I and a few others have gained a lot, so we also specially prepared some vulgar things to express our hearts, and asked Master Li not to dislike it."
Prince Wen's attitude is humble, his words are sincere, and Li Xipin, who speaks straightforwardly, is very comfortable. But if it had been a few months ago, Li Xipin would have gladly accepted this gratitude, but now, or in the future, he can't help him too much.
"Prince Wen, a few friends are polite, I will accept the things, but... I'm afraid there will be very few people who can help you in the future..."
Li Xipin is not ready to hide it, but he will not tell it out, but he will just say it here.
"This king is going to rush to the fiefdom in a few days, and I don't know how long it will take to come back, and in the future... There are not many places to trouble Master Li, but if this king comes back, it must be for the position of the Great Treasure, and at that time, I will ask Master Li to come out of the mountain to help me."
Prince Wen didn't understand the meaning of Li Xipin's words, and he didn't have any curiosity or ask the reason, but got up and made a bold promise, and Li Xipin was stunned by the demeanor of that moment, not to mention that Liu Zhengyuan and the three of them who had always supported him.
"Okay, if one day your father unloads the burden, I will ensure that you sit on the throne" Li Xipin also got up, which can be regarded as a promise to Prince Wen.
If one of the crown prince and Prince Wen is chosen, Li Xipin will naturally choose Prince Wen, which is beyond doubt.
Prince Wen only thought that Li Xipin was infected by his "domineering spirit", so he made this statement, how did he know that at this time, Li Xipin's promise was as heavy as a pilgrimage to the holy mountain, and it was not an exaggeration.
If Li Xipin is willing, he can even let Prince Wen sit on the throne at this moment, and his father and emperor dare not say a word, and the ancestors in the kingdom will definitely stand on their side.
Li Xipin's energy at this time was unimaginable to these few people who had been away from the Holy City for a few months!
