Cheng Fu

Mrs. Cheng saw the sun setting in the west, and she didn't see the shadow of Cheng biting gold, so she made a mistake in her heart: "Could it be that the emperor left them to eat in the palace, then he sent someone to send a letter." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info I've made this meal, just waiting for him to come home for dinner, but I can't see anyone when I wait. ”

Just as he was talking to himself, he heard someone knock at the door. Mrs. Cheng hurriedly called someone to go over and open the door. Cui Ying tugged on her mother's arm and said, "Mother, is my father back?" ”

Pei Shi looked at the direction of the gate and said, "No, if your father comes back, he will have to shout loudly." How can it be so quiet. ”

Sure enough, it didn't take long for a man who looked like a soldier to come to Pei's side, saluted a standard military salute and said, "Hello, Mrs. Cheng." ”

Pei Shi said to the soldier: "Don't be polite, are you the person next to my husband?" ”

The man nodded and said, "Yes, I am General Cheng's correspondent, General Cheng specially asked me to inform you not to wait for him for dinner, he was invited by General Qin to drink, and it is estimated that he will not be able to come back until later." ”

Pei Shi looked at him with a serious look, and originally wanted to blame a few words, but it was not people's fault. It seems that Qin Qiong hasn't seen my father-in-law for a long time, and I guess I want to catch up with him. Forget it, let's wait until tomorrow to talk about it.

Pei gave the soldier a few bounties and sent him away. turned around and took Cui Ying's hand and said, "Let's go, let's go to dinner together, your father has been invited." ”

Palace

Wei Zheng returned to the palace non-stop and waited for the emperor to summon him outside the Heart Cultivation Palace.

Li Shimin was reviewing the chapter, and listened to the eunuch report that Prime Minister Wei was waiting outside, knowing that he was reporting Cheng Biting Jin's return to Beijing. Hurriedly announced his entry into the temple.

Wei Zheng walked into the Palace of Nourishing Hearts, bowed to the emperor, and then reported in detail the matter of welcoming Cheng Yanjin into the city. Li Shimin listened and nodded incessantly. At the end, Li Shimin asked: "Do you think General Cheng is thin or fat?" What is his health? ”

"Lao Chen, General Cheng is much thinner than three years ago. It is estimated that it is natural to be thin because you can't eat or sleep well in the border areas, coupled with homesickness and unadaptability. But it still looks healthy. Wei Zheng reported.

"I knew that he had made an indelible contribution to the stability of the country, so I specially transferred him back to the capital to recuperate. Now that the northwest side has been pacified, it is estimated that there will be no more riots in the near future. At the beginning of the world, the army and the people need to recuperate, and I must preserve the combat effectiveness of these armies in order to be invincible in future wars. Li Shimin glanced at Wei Zheng meaningfully, and then said:

"Those barbarians will not stop there, there are also many tribes who covet my Tang Dynasty's strong national strength and rich resources, maybe they are just showing weakness on the surface, and they are accumulating strength in their hearts, so that when the time is ripe, they can launch a new attack on us. So, we must not be careless. This time, General Cheng came back and asked him about the details of the situation on the border side, and then we were studying the next step to deal with it. ”

"The emperor is a saint, he knows that he is prepared for danger in times of peace, is far-sighted, and sympathizes with his subordinates and the people, this is really a blessing for his subordinates, and it is also a blessing for the people." Wei Zheng bowed deeply to Li Shimin.

When he got up, Li Shimin asked, "How are you arranging a banquet tomorrow?" ”

Wei Zheng bowed and said, "Your Majesty, the old ministers have already sent someone to purchase the ingredients for the banquet, and the imperial kitchen has also notified them to prepare." There is also a list of people who were invited to the dinner together, and the minister had arranged for someone to send it from house to house before he went out of the city to greet Cheng Yanjin, and it is estimated that this meeting has been distributed. ”

"You're implementing it for a while, don't leave anyone behind. As the saying goes, don't leave one behind, and it's not good if we don't do our work well. By the way, Lord Yuan Tiangang, did you call someone to inform you? ”

"The old minister has already sent someone to deliver the post." Wei Zheng thought, no one can leave him behind, Lao Yuan, he is a celebrity that Li Shimin likes, so before Li Shimin could explain, he asked someone to send the post early.

Li Shimin was very satisfied with Wei Zheng's work, so he left him in the palace for dinner before letting him go back.

Xiyuan Restaurant

Tonight, Xiyuan Restaurant is unprecedentedly lively, the brothers of Wagangzhai got together again after three years, and the feelings naturally exploded like popcorn. From Qin Shubao to Luo Cheng, from Cheng Yanjin to You Junda...... One by one, the face is red and the neck is thick, that is called a pleasure, and that is called a hearty. The soldiers were also very happy, with such a general repeatedly made war exploits, and often had wine and meat to eat, who was not happy. Especially when I returned to Chang'an, I could see my relatives when I saw it, which was more precious than anything else for a soldier.

Didn't Wang Han write in a poem:

Glow-in-the-dark glass of wine

If you want to drink the pipa, urge immediately

Drunk and lying on the battlefield, Jun Mo smiled

In ancient times, a few people came back to fight

On the battlefield where countless people are fighting, being able to come back alive is a victory in itself. So at this time, the soldiers drank the ground and could be described as happy and revenge. When the wine was half-drunk, some people picked up chopsticks and beat the wine bowl and sang the song:

Shuofang beacon fire shines on Ganquan, and Chang'an will fly out of Qilian.

The son of the Xiqu Jade Sword Gen family, a young man with a white horse and a golden bondage.

Pingming Yanyue Tun right land, twilight fish Li chase the left sage.

The stone tiger in the valley is held by the arrow, and the golden people on the mountain have sacrificed to the sky.

The end of the world is endless, and the thistle gate is three thousand miles.

Seeing the yellow sand of Maling, the clouds of Longcheng rose at night.

The strange trees in the court have been climbed, and the people recruited from outside the court have not been returned.

At the beginning of the white clouds, outside the Tianshan Mountains, the floating clouds went straight to the five plains.

Guanshan is unsurmountable, who can sit on Fang Feiyue.

The flowing water is self-cutting human intestines, and the ice is old to hurt the horse's bones.

The side garden is different from the flowers, and the winter hail and autumn frost and spring do not stop.

The long wind Xiao Xiao crossed the water, and the wild geese reflected the sky again and again.

From the military march, the military march thousands of miles out of the dragon court,

Shan Yu Weiqiao has now worshipped, where is the general looking for fame.

……

At first, only a few soldiers were singing, and the other soldiers were drinking while making fists, but as they sang, everyone began to sing along. This song sang the feelings of the soldiers of the Border Fortress, and this song evoked a kind of nostalgia for the years when the Border Fortress was full of wolf smoke. This song is a reverence for the deceased, and this song is an encouragement to the living.

Cry for a long song, dedicate a parting song for those dead brothers, and those who remain will still have to face it strongly......

Outside the Xiyuan Restaurant, the red lantern hanging on the roof of the building was particularly bright in the dark night, and the surrounding trees were hidden in the dark shadows of the night. The birds in the nest in the tree were not asleep, they snuggled up in their mother's arms, their little eyes open, looking at the starry sky overhead.

……

……

The next day, there was a big banquet in the palace, and the invited royal relatives, ministers and nobles of the palace flocked to the palace to fill the palace. Li Shimin set up more than 20 tables of wine banquets in the hall, and everything that flew in the sky, swam in the water, and ran on the ground can be said to have everything. Cheng Yanjin didn't wake up from a hangover the night before, coupled with the fatigue of the journey, he obviously didn't have much energy today. How can the emperor have a treat, it's not good not to go. I had to go to the palace with a hard hold.

When the ministers of the DPRK and China met with Cheng Yanjin, they all congratulated him on his outstanding military exploits. Above the court, Li Shimin did not treat Cheng Yanjin badly, in front of all the ministers, Cheng Yanjin was praised and praised, not to mention the good field and beautiful house, the gold alone is enough for 10,000 taels! It makes everyone envious, jealous and hateful.

"Next time there's something like this, let's sign up first. Isn't it just that I've been out there for three years, and when I come back, it's heaven and earth. "It's not a joke to lead soldiers to fight, the sword is not long-sighted, you are going, it would be good to save your life, don't think about it."

……

There were a few unconvinced private discussions, Li Shimin heard it and knew that it was because Cheng Biting Jin had won the reward, and the people below looked hot, he pretended to raise his eyebrows and said: "Who is talking about it below, I will listen to it if I say it loudly." ”

When the people below heard this, they quickly shut up, and for a while there was silence in the court.

Li Shimin pursed his lips and said: "Don't blush when you see someone receiving a reward, not everyone can do this with soldiers to fight, don't say anything else, just talk about it, famous generals of the Warring States, people really have a set of leading troops to fight, you can't accept it."

From the thirteenth year of King Qin Zhao, he began to lead troops to fight, and in the following year, he completely annihilated the Han and Wei coalition forces in Yique, won the first 240,000, and captured five cities. In fifteen years, he led his troops to capture Wei and occupied sixty-one large and small cities. Sixteen years to capture Huancheng. Twenty-one years to occupy the light wolf city. In 28 years, he attacked Chu, Bayan, Deng and other five major cities. The following year, the capital of Chu was captured. In the thirty-fourth year, Zhao Wei allied forces in Huayang, beheaded 130,000, and captured the generals of Han, Zhao and Wei. In the forty-third year, he attacked the city of Hanzhi, built five cities, and beheaded 50,000 people.

You may say that this man is too far away from us, and this does not count.

Okay, let's talk about it closer. Xiang Yu, the grandson of Xiang Yan, a famous general of the Chu State, began to lead troops to fight at the age of twenty-four, and killed Li You in the battle of Yongqiu with the strength of one person in the ten thousand troops, resulting in the defeat of the Qin army. Later, in the Battle of Julu, tens of thousands of Chu troops fought against hundreds of thousands of Qin troops, the disparity in number was unimaginable, but the Qin army was defeated again with the momentum of breaking the cauldron and sinking the boat, and Wang Li, the famous general of the Qin Dynasty who destroyed the Six Kingdoms and swept through China, was also killed. Hey, think about such a great Qin, and it will be ruined since then.

Which of you can compare these two people, if anyone says that he is powerful, then let him try to lead troops to fight next time.

After speaking, Li Shimin glanced at the bottom with his eyes, and no one dared to take a stubble.

"Also, you want to say, we can't compare these two people, but didn't Cheng Yanjin win the battle this time, if we go, we may not be worse than him."

Don't say it, there are really people down there who think so, but we won't mention who it is.
