Chapter 47: The Prince's Reward
Finally waiting for Jieli's words, Li Chengqian, who was lying on the recliner, suddenly lost his strength all over his body, and completely lay down on the chair, eager to fall asleep immediately.
The rest is much simpler.
In order to show his sincerity, Jieli personally killed his mount White Horse, killed White Horse and swore that he would continue to abide by the covenant and never invade Datang again, and promised to sacrifice 3,000 horses to Datang and 10,000 sheep as reparations.
Seeing that the elite teams of Datang on the other side of the river seemed to be increasing endlessly, Jieli didn't even want to delay for another two days to see the fake, he just wanted to withdraw his troops back to the grassland quickly. Only the endless grassland can bring him a sense of security.
After the oath was completed, Jieli immediately got on his horse, and did not care about letting the army and war horses rest and rest, so he fled and led the team north.
Under the sunset, the dust of the northern skyline actually gives people the illusion of beauty.
When the Turks disappeared from sight, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
But without waiting for anyone to speak, Li Jing, who was standing honestly, suddenly drew his sword out of the sheath, aimed at the bridge under his feet, and said loudly: "Who is under the bridge!" Come out! ”
Everyone just exhaled a breath and took it back, no one dared to speak, once there were Turkic spies under the bridge and heard the truth, then the Turks who had been forced back would go and return.
Yu Tai, who was in a cold sweat, hurriedly said: "Don't be surprised, Duke Wei is our soldier." ”
Under Yu Tai's call, the Sky Monkey climbed up in fear.
When he saw the luxurious lineup on the bridge, the timid Sky Monkey immediately fell to his knees and didn't dare to say a word.
Glancing at the size of the Sky Monkey, Li Shimin turned around and asked Yu Tai: "Why are you arranging a person under the bridge, are you going to assassinate Jieli?" ”
Yu Tai immediately replied: "Back to Your Majesty, this is the arrangement of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, if the fake Eight Ox Crossbow does not deter Jieli, then the Sky Monkey under the bridge will step on the central beam of the bridge, let the bridge collapse, and buy time for the reinforcements in Chang'an." ”
After listening to Yu Tai's answer, Li Shimin looked at Li Chengqian lying on the chair suspiciously.
It was hard for him to imagine that such a meticulous plan was actually formulated by his seven-year-old son.
Could it be that Lao Tzu's son really got the enlightenment of the gods?
A few steps to the recliner and asked the eldest grandson Wuji to get out of the way.
Glancing at Li Chengqian, who was lying motionless, Li Shimin said in a deep voice: "Get up, your uncle and uncle are here, what kind of system!" ”
Li Chengqian, who was lying on the rattan chair, tried hard to straighten himself up, and stood up with weak legs.
Because it was a pale yellow robe, Li Chengqian stood up and showed his wet back.
The completely soaked back proved how tormented Li Chengqian had been before.
For a seven-year-old child, it is rare to face such a situation only with a wet back and weak legs and feet. If you change it, I'm afraid you would have cried out in fright.
Finding the figures of the eldest grandson Wuji and Gao Shilian, Li Chengqian bowed down and said: "Let my uncle and uncle smile, I am really nervous, and my legs are weak until now." ”
After speaking, he patted his chest, looking like he had palpitations.
Seeing Li Chengqian's movements, the eldest grandson Wuji and the others all laughed.
Gao Shilian was already an old dragon clock, walked up to Li Chengqian, stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "At the age of seven, with a guard, stand on the bridge with a guard, and a husband should be closed and ten thousand people will not be opened." In the history books, Yu only heard that Zhang Yide, a Yanren, had such a heroic act. Now the prince is far better than him, and the old man is proud of you! I have a successor to the Tang Dynasty, which can be seen from this! ”
The eldest grandson Wuji leaned aside, squeezed his eyebrows and said to Li Chengqian: "Chengqian, I miss your uncle and I all my life, but I haven't received a word of praise from my uncle, you are more competitive than your uncle, haha!" ”
With the laughter of the eldest grandson Wuji, everyone laughed.
After such a frightening battle, only laughter can erase the gloom in people's hearts.
Li Shimin walked in front of Li Gang and bowed his hand slightly: "The prince's actions today, thanks to Master Li's teaching, I thank Master Li for his cultivation!" ”
Li Gang shook his hand and said: "The prince's merit is completely his own idea, although the old man U has been with him all the way, he has not come up with any ideas, Your Majesty can't attribute this to the old man, it is better to think about how to reward the prince." ”
Listening to Li Gang's words, Li Shimin showed a look of embarrassment.
If you want to say who is the most difficult emperor in the world, I am afraid that it is the queen and the crown prince.
As the prince, he is already the coolest person in the world, how can he be sealed?
Turning his head stiffly, Li Shimin asked: "Cheng Qian, you have made great achievements today, tell me, how do you want me to reward you?" ”
Since you don't know how to reward him, just ask him what he wants.
At this moment, Li Shimin is in a mode of responding to requests. Even if Li Chengqian made any excessive demands, he would reluctantly agree.
Li Chengqian naturally knew that the opportunity was rare, so he lowered his head and thought for a long time before saying: "First, the son asks his father to reward Yu Tai!" ”
Li Shimin glanced at Yu Tai, who was kneeling on one knee, and nodded: "Even if you don't say it, I will give Yu Tai a reward." Since this is the first, what is the second? ”
Li Chengqian pointed to the soldiers and craftsmen behind him, and said: "Second, please ask my father to reward these soldiers and craftsmen with gold silk, especially these craftsmen, at a critical moment, none of them retreated, but chose to fight to the death. ”
Glancing at the soldiers and craftsmen who were kneeling on the ground, Li Shimin nodded: "Of course you can, what about the third?" ”
In fact, there is one thing that Li Shimin did not say at all, on the way to Weishui, he was ready to use the treasury savings to persuade Jieli to retreat, and give up temporary profits for a respite. The money that is now given to these craftsmen and soldiers is nothing compared to the treasury.
"Third...."
Li Chengqian smiled bitterly: "You also know that in the hands of the child, that.... That one has a lot of savings, can you allow the child to make his own decisions and not take it away! ”
At this time, Li Chengqian is very much like a child who has been confiscated by his parents.
Hearing Li Chengqian's request, Li Shimin was stunned at first, and then laughed with the eldest grandson Wuji and others.
The fact that the prince cooperated with the general as a prison and made money was actually known to everyone. Every time the supervisor launches a new product, he will send a set to the important officials' offices. It is said that behind this behavior, there is also the prince's handiwork.
Although I felt that it was inappropriate for such a large sum of money to be in the hands of a seven-year-old child, at this time, it was much easier to allow the prince to have private money than to give a reward.
Li Shimin immediately agreed: "Of course you can." ”
Li Chengqian asked again: "You don't have any jokes? ”
Li Shimin slapped him on the head.
