In order to eat a good meal, Lu Ting had to do it himself in the cold wind, dozens of miles away in the Qin Palace, Li Erzheng was drinking wine and eating meat with a large bowl of henchmen, and there were also maiko to help the fun, which was very lively.

The drum of the clean street has been beaten, the Chang'an city gate, the fang gate, and the palace gate are closed in turn, the original lively street is empty except for patrolling the military hou, the curfew has begun, the street is quiet, the Qin Wangfu is still very lively, the Qin king Li Shimin feasted his confidants in the palace in the name of celebrating the victory of the Battle of Wulonghan.

In order to fight the Turks, Li Yuan ordered Li Shimin to lead the army to meet the enemy in Wulongban (now Fengxiangxi, Shaanxi), Li Shimin took advantage of the mutual distrust of the two khans, and used his outstanding strategic vision, astonishing courage and superior wisdom to force him to retreat with a counter-strategy, and once again let Chang'an turn the danger into a disaster.

Li Er has always been very generous to his subordinates, and he has won a big victory, so he naturally wants to celebrate, although Li Yuan doesn't like ministers to form private parties, he can only turn a blind eye to this situation.

The four seas are not peaceful, the borders are unsettled, and the foreign enemies have not yet surrendered, Datang needs a military god like Li Er who is good at fighting big battles and tough battles, otherwise, Li Yuan would have transferred Li Shimin to other places long ago, lest he always fight to the death with the crown prince Li Jiancheng.

After being full of wine and food, Li Er waved his hand, and all the kabuki, maiko, and palace maids and eunuchs who were cheering up the fun were retired, and said with a smile: "In this battle, a batch of high-quality horses were captured, and everyone present had a share, and each person was rewarded with five horses." ”

The eldest grandson Wuji, Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling, Wei Chi Jingde, Qin Shubao and others hurriedly thanked them.

It is good to follow a master like King Qin, what good things are wanted to be subordinates, I don't know how many things to be rewarded all year round, this time I went to Wulongban, captured a batch of good horses, and rewarded my subordinates as soon as I came back, five good horses are not worth much, but this is the heart of King Qin, and it cannot be measured by money.

King Qin is the military god of the Tang Dynasty, which expedition did not yield?

Cheng Yanjin laughed, stood up and squeezed his eyebrows and said: "Lord Wang, do you only seize horses, are there any beautiful Turkic little ladies, give me a few, riding a Turkic little lady is much more interesting than riding a Turkic horse." ”

Everyone laughed when they heard this, Li Er pointed at Cheng Biting Jin and scolded with a smile: "I only rewarded you with four orchids in the middle of the year, and you remembered the Turkic little lady so quickly, Cheng Laohei, can you afford it?" ”

There are so many henchmen sitting in the hall, and Cheng Yanjin dares to talk to Li Er like this, and Li Er is also extremely tolerant of Cheng Yanjin.

Cheng Biting Jin smiled and said: "My old Cheng has a good mouth, for the beauties, that is Han Xin's soldiers, the more the merrier, anyway, going to Connecticut is boring, bring a few more beauties to open up the branches for my old Cheng family, how good." ”

As soon as the words fell, the warm atmosphere in the lobby changed suddenly, and the smile on Li Er's face disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye.

A month ago, he sent someone to Cheng Yanjin to send a large number of gold and silver goods, thinking that Cheng Yanjin would work for him, Cheng Yanjin returned all of them, claiming that he was only loyal to the King of Qin, and truthfully reported this matter to Li Er.

After the New Year, Cheng Yanjin will go to Connecticut to take up his post.

Qin Shubao slapped the table with a slam on the table, and said angrily: "Lao Cheng has fought so many battles, shed so much blood, and earned so many military exploits, because he refused to take refuge in the prince, he was sent to the poor countryside of Connecticut to do something to assassinate him, isn't this a humble person." ”

"That's it" Wei Chi Jingde also held grievances for Cheng Biting Jin: "If you fight, you will send the Cheng brothers to charge into battle, now be more stable, find a reason to send them to Connecticut, it's unfair, it's too unfair." ”

Although Cheng Biting Jin is a little rude, sometimes likes to make some excessive jokes, but he gets along well with everyone, and he is willing to stand up for his friends when there is something, and everyone has gone to Connecticut to express their dissatisfaction, if it is put in Luoyang, Suzhou, Hangzhou, these places are better, and Connecticut is Lianzhou and Leizhou a little south of it, this is not relocation, it is exile.

Li Er smiled bitterly, stood up and walked up to Cheng Yanjin, stretched out his hand and patted his sturdy shoulder, and comforted: "Zhijie, this king knows that you are unwilling, but the matter has come to this point, you should go to Connecticut to play, and if you have the opportunity, this king will transfer you back immediately." ”

This matter was planned by Li Jiancheng while he was leading the troops outside, and when Li Er knew, the holy decree was issued, and the process of the officials was gone, Li Er hesitated again and again, or did not challenge Li Yuan's authority, he could only eat this dumb loss, and now it was the most critical moment in the fight for the throne, Li Er did not want to make Li Yuan angry.

Cheng Yanjin didn't laugh anymore, and said seriously: "When the prince does this, he wants to cut off the prince's right-hand man, and weaken the prince's power step by step, I have lived enough in this life, and the big deal is death, if the prince doesn't want to protect himself and let the prince do whatever he wants, the consequences will be unimaginable." ”

"Lord Wang, Lao Cheng's words are rude and ignorant" Duan Zhixuan echoed: "When the prince is fighting bloodily, what is the prince doing?" Every time Datang suffers from a crisis, it is the prince who comes forward, so he is a little more stable, is he ready to fly all the birds, hide the good bow, hide the cunning rabbits, and cook the lackeys? ”

Qin Shubao saw that Li Er was a little hesitant, and couldn't help but speak: "Wei Zheng of the Prince's Mansion proposed to move the Qin Palace's Mansion out of Chang'an in June, if it weren't for this Battle of Wulongban, maybe the prince would have been out of Chang'an, and our old brothers would have been dismantled, so the prince needs to be careful." ”

Li Er's expression was a little solemn, he turned his head to look at Fang Xuanling, and asked, "Xuanling, how is the situation in the palace?" ”

Fang Xuanling shook his head and said: "Back to the prince's words, it's not good, now the palace is full of princes, even the emperor's most favored concubine Yin Defei and Zhang Jieyu are all speaking for the prince, Shubao is right, if it weren't for the Battle of Wulongban, the situation would definitely be worse." ”

"Prince" Du Ruhui opened his mouth to report: "The prince and the king of Qi have always been good friends with the concubines in the palace, and every time they enter the palace, they have to use a car to pull gifts. ”

The invasion of foreign enemies was originally a matter of common hatred, but I didn't expect it to become a lifesaver for King Qin, and it was a bit ironic to say it.

Li Er thought about it, and finally laughed, patted Cheng Jin's shoulder again, and said confidently: "Zhijie, don't say these heroic shortness of breath, the good days have just begun, and the glory and wealth are still waiting for you to enjoy, isn't it just going to Connecticut, and it's not that you can't come back, just take a break, and the big things are also carried by this king." ”

Speaking of the back, Li Er's tone was extremely resolute, with an irreparable will in his words, everyone present was infected by Li Er's confidence and will, and there were smiles on their faces and fighting spirit rekindled in their eyes, if Lu Ting was here, he would definitely sigh and say that this is domineering.

Cheng Biting Jin smiled, turned around and hugged Li Er's legs, and said loudly: "Everyone is a witness, King Qin can say, glory and wealth are waiting for me Lao Cheng, with the words of King Qin, I Lao Cheng will hold the prince in the future, and I will not let go if I am Ronghua and wealth." ”

I just said that, one is to remind, the other is to show loyalty, King Qin did not express his position, that is to take into account the flesh and blood affection, now it seems that the Qin Wangfu is not as beautiful as the Prince's Mansion, but everyone with a discerning eye knows that now the Qin Wangfu is the mainstay of the Tang Dynasty, as long as the four seas are not peaceful and the foreign enemy is not served, the Tang Dynasty needs a god of war like the King of Qin, not only the Tang Dynasty needs, but the emperor also needs it, a few years ago, a minister said that the King of Qin is old, according to the law, he should go out of Chang'an to set up a mansion in other places, but Li Yuan just disagreed.

In Li Yuan's opinion, with Li Er's presence, Chang'an City can be safe, and only with Li Er's presence, Li Yuan can sleep peacefully in the palace.

Li Er has never given up the position of the crown prince, and he has been fighting, if he goes further, it will be to launch a palace change, and he will not take this step unless he has to.

"Get out, take your orchid home." Li Er was angry and stretched out his foot and put the faceless and skinless Cheng Yanjin to the ground, causing everyone to laugh in unison.

There is a gag here, and there was a serious banquet that turned out to be full of laughter.

Fang Xuanling and the others finished laughing, and reminded him: "Lord, the eyeliner said that the prince's mansion attaches great importance to the emperor's birthday banquet, and has carefully prepared a lot of gifts, and is also ready to mention the relocation of the Qin Palace's residence at the birthday banquet. ”

Li Yuan's birthday was November 24, because the Turks suddenly sent troops, and the troops were directed at Chang'an, and Li Er led his troops to meet the enemy, Li Yuan ordered the postponement of the event, and waited for Li Er's triumphant return to make plans, but he didn't expect to let the people of the prince's mansion remember it.

If there is a difficulty, the king of Qin came out of the horse, and as soon as he calmed down, he wanted to cross the river and demolish the bridge, and as soon as Fang Xuanling's words came out, everyone was a little indignant.

Li Er sat down and said indifferently: "If it is so easy to move out, this king will not sit here for a long time, some clowns who jump off the beam are not enough to cause trouble, how to deal with this king, I know in my heart, my father's birthday can not be sloppy, you help this king think about what gifts to give to make my father happy." ”

If he mentions this usually, Li Er is still a little afraid, now that he has just let the Turks withdraw from the army, so much credit is placed here, even if the father and emperor are not good at making this kind of request at this time, besides, the people in the prince's mansion will fan the flames, and they will not ignite the fire?

When it comes to strategy, Li Er has never been afraid of anyone.

Li Er is not worried about attacking himself, but now he is worried about what to give at Li Yuan's birthday banquet, which must not only be decent, but also meaningful.

As soon as Li Er's voice fell, Zheng Yuanxuan, who had been sitting in the corner without speaking, his eyes lit up suddenly.

It's finally their turn.
