Chapter 250: Celebration

Chang'an City is boiling!

This day is a grand festival for all the residents of Chang'an City, because today, His Royal Highness the King of Qin, who has won the battle of Luoyang, led the army to return to Chang'an victoriously, and the victory of the battle of Luoyang has an extremely shocking impact on the court and the people. For the people, the victory in the Battle of Luoyang means that a great unified dynasty is coming, and at that time, the world will recreate the peaceful and prosperous era of the previous dynasty Emperor Wen of Sui. Therefore, both the court and the people were extremely elated about the return of the King of Qin, and even the whole country was jubilant, and Tang Emperor Li Yuan also conformed to the public opinion, and specially ordered the curfew to be canceled tonight, allowing the residents of the city to carnival all night, which was naturally unanimously praised by the residents of the city.

The common people in the city are celebrating with joy, and the palace is naturally no exception, at this time in the palace, Li Yuan is holding a banquet to invite all the important ministers of the court and the emperor's relatives, Tang Emperor Li Yuan naturally sits in the first place, and then followed by the crown prince Li Jiancheng and his wife, the king of Qin Li Shimin and his wife, the king of Qi Li Yuanji and his wife, and the concubine Chai Shao - although Li Xiuning is dead, but first, she is the eldest daughter of Tang Emperor Li Yuan, and the prince Qin Wang is a mother, and has always been loved by Li Yuan and his wife, second, It is Li Sanniang who has been running around all these years, and has also made countless contributions to the Tang Dynasty, so even if Princess Xiuning is no longer alive at this time, the seat of the concubine Chai Shao is still in the forefront, and then, Li Shentong, Li Daoxuan, Li Daozong and other royal family members with real power. Li Xiaogong was unable to appear because he was attacking the south at this time and had not yet returned at this time.

On the other side, there is a group of important ministers of the court headed by Shangshu Pei Lian, Xiao Yu, Feng Deyi, etc., sitting opposite each other to a cadre of royal family members headed by the crown prince King Qin. Different from the usual expressions of the people of the two factions when they went to the court, everyone in the two factions at this time was all happy, even the face of Tang Emperor Li Yuan was also smiling, of course, although he was extremely excited in his heart, Li Yuan had not forgotten who was the real protagonist of this banquet, looking at Li Shimin, who was sitting at the bottom at this time, this second son whom he had loved very much since he was a child. At this time, he had grown into his father's solid arm, and Li Yuan's heart was also extremely gratified: "If Mrs. has a spirit in the sky, her heart should also be extremely gratified!" Li Yuan thought unconsciously.

Li Yuan deliberately called Li Shimin, the second son, and asked him to tell everyone in detail about the battle of Luoyang in front of everyone present, which was obviously to give his son a chance to show off his martial arts, and Li Shimin did not shirk. Da generously stood up and began to tell.

Since the beginning of the troubled times at the end of the Han Dynasty. In the troubled times, the martial arts are in power, so from the monarch to the people, all of them respect martial arts, so when the world, only the most powerful military separatist forces can overwhelm the heroes. Start a new dynasty history, and the so-called divine power of heaven and the difference between high and low are not fart in the eyes of these martial artists. The so-called tradition of boasting about martial arts in front of the palace was formed in that era.

The system of the Tang Dynasty was directly inherited from the Sui Dynasty, and the system of the Sui Dynasty was inherited from the Northern Zhou Dynasty and even the Northern Wei Dynasty. Therefore, this tradition has also been handed down, however, the military generals who can get this honor must be the peerless famous generals who want to get the merits of the sky, the reason why Li Yuan will allow his second son to boast of martial arts in front of the palace, in addition to the preference for his own son, Li Shimin's military exploits can deserve this honor, naturally is the most important reason.

Li Shimin began to tell, because the battle of Luoyang was too thrilling, so when Li Shimin told about the dangerous and fierce battles again and again, not to mention that the ministers were drunk and fascinated, Li Shimin's own heart was involuntarily surging.

In the narration, Li Shimin mentioned his distress many times, but fortunately, every time it was the generals of his subordinates who rescued him without hesitation, such as the cavalry battle when he went out to reconnoitre, Wei Chigong fought bravely to repel the strong enemy! For another example, in the battle under Luoyang City, Qiu Xinggong saved the King of Qin ...... death! Because these brave generals impressed Li Shimin the most, they accounted for a lot of content in his narration, and because Wei Chigong's bravery and loyalty were the top among these generals, so in Li Shimin's words, there was no lack of appreciation for this military general who originally belonged to the enemy Song Jingang, and later surrendered to himself...... The faces of everyone in the hall either showed a look of shock, or showed a look of approval to the King of Qin, the princess of Qin, Shi Qingyi saw this qiē, and showed a smile on her face without a trace, however, Shi Qingyi immediately felt a resentful gaze looking towards Li Shimin, Shi Qingyi was slightly surprised and secretly looked at the source of the gaze, and then, she saw Li Yuanji, His Royal Highness the King of Qi's face was twitching at this time, and then, he suddenly stood up and said loudly: " Since this Wei Chi Jingde's martial arts are so outstanding, then there is a junior brother who asks this second brother's capable subordinate for advice! Hehe! ”

Li Yuan and the ministers were stunned, and then, the smart people immediately understood what was going on, too, in the second year of Wude, Liu Wuzhou and Song Jingang invaded Taiyuan and Hedong, and after a fierce battle, the local army of the Tang Army completely collapsed, and Li Yuanji, the king of Qi, who was only sixteen years old at the time, abandoned the city and fled, and lost face, the king of Qi was young and vigorous, but he lost such a big person, even if he didn't say it on his lips, in his heart, I am afraid that he hated it so much, and this Wei Chi Gong, But it's not the number one general under Song Jingang in the past! No wonder when the King of Qi went to the front line of Luoyang, a large number of people and horses that originally belonged to Song Jingang's men fled, and even Song Jingang's deputy general Xun Xiang also ran away, it seems that the problem is not only because the Luoyang battlefield has been holding each other for a long time, but also because the revenge of this King of Qi is probably also a big reason!

The hearts of many ministers are bright, and they have guessed what the problem is, in fact, it is the luck of this Wei Chigong, after looking for the appearance and running away, the king of Qi took advantage of the absence of the king of Qin to arrest him and prepare to cut off the head, who knows that at this time, the king of Qin happened to come back, so he saved his life, otherwise, who knows where such a fierce general brother who is being praised loudly by the king of Qin, is lying on his body at this time!?

Li Yuan is naturally also a smart person, so he naturally thought of this, facing the fact that Yu Chi Gong was already a general under King Qin at this time, Li Yuan naturally knew in his heart, however, in Li Yuan's heart, the wage earners who worked for his own family were naturally far less important than his own son, so in the face of King Qi's suggestion, Li Yuan also became interested: "Oh, since the King of Qi is prosperous, then the King of Qin might as well call this General Wei Chi Jingde to the palace and have a try with the King of Qi?" ”

Although Li Shimin hurriedly postponed: "Qi Father, the sword has no eyes, and at this time it is the time to feast the ministers in front of the palace, so I also ask my father to take back his fate!" However, Li Yuan shook his head with a smile: "Li Tang's world was defeated, although my father has become the emperor at this time, but his courage is not much weaker than in the past on the battlefield, and there are you King Qin here, can it be said that King Qin is actually worried that he will not be able to control his subordinates, or that King Qin looks down on my father!" Ha! Ha! Seeing Li Yuan speak like this, Li Shimin naturally had nothing to say, so he had to send an order outside the hall to recruit Wei Chi Gong to enter the palace to face the saint.

Yu Chigong, is a burly fat man, with a dark complexion, like a humanoid violent bear, this is the first impression that Yu Chigong, Li Shimin's number one thug in the future, gave Shi Qingyi, however, this is clearly a humanoid meat shield, in the future, there will be such a person on the battlefield in front of Li Shimin to charge for him, Shi Qingyi is a lot more relieved about Li Shimin's safety.

Speaking of Wei Chigong, after he entered the main hall, he naturally saluted Li Yuan, and then wanted to salute Li Shimin, the king of Qin, but was stopped by Li Shimin, and then, Li Shimin told him about the requirements for the upcoming competition with Li Yuanji, the king of Qi. In short, it is a sentence, you must not hurt the king of Qi, Wei Chigong is not a stupid person, he immediately understood the meaning of Li Shimin's words, so he did not agree immediately, but turned to Tang Emperor Li Yuan, asking the king of Qi to use the long lance, and he fought the enemy empty-handed: "This is the minister's stunt, he can grab people with the long lance empty-handed in the battle array, and it is precisely because of this that the minister can still retreat from Shan Xiongxin when the military array is chaotic!" Faced with what Wei Chigong said, Li Yuan's interest was great, so he immediately agreed to Wei Chigong's request, and ordered Li Yuanji to hold the lance and attack the unarmed Wei Chigong. The two of them stood still in front of the palace, waiting for Li Yuan's order, and then immediately began to attack, and the ministers were also waiting to see this good show, except for Li Shimin, the king of Qin!

At this time, Li Shimin had already returned to his seat, and was watching the continuation of the situation with worry, and then he suddenly found that right next to him, his princess was watching the two parties that were about to fight, and her eyes were extremely focused!

"What did you find?" Li Shimin asked Shi Qingyi. When Shi Qingyi heard this, he smiled: "This Wei Chi Jingde is really not simple, not only is his divine power extremely amazing, but he is also practicing external skills, I am afraid that he has also reached the realm of invulnerability!" "The practice of outer martial arts to the extreme is also extremely amazing, at least in the martial arts, it is also at the level of Zhang Xutuo and Xue Ju, and because of the amazing destructive power in the military array, such a fierce general has even more effect in the battle of the army than a grandmaster! And if such a person can say with great confidence that he is good at snatching weapons, then there is no doubt that even if the grandmaster shoots at him, if he is careless, the weapon in his hand may be taken away by him. Shi Qingyi smiled: "I can't see it, you have found a treasure!" ”

"Oh, that's right!" Li Shimin was a little happy, "In other words, Wei Chi Jingde can really easily seize the long lance in the hands of King Qi?" However, this time, Shi Qingyi did not answer him.

Your third brother is actually much more powerful than you think! Shi Qingyi said in her heart, and at the same time, a trace of unknown gloom flashed in her eyes. (To be continued......)
