Li Xun's return immediately aroused the enthusiasm of the people in Fengjing City, who danced and cheered loudly, vying to witness the heroes who conquered the land of the Western Regions.

Zhao Zhi has been in the dynasty for more than 20 years, and the Jin Dynasty has achieved many brilliant achievements in military affairs, but not every time it can resonate with the people, like Li Xun has been welcomed three times in total.

For the first time, in the second year of Guangyuan, Tianxiong Khan succeeded to the throne not long after, in order to stabilize and enhance his power and prestige, Tianxiong Khan personally led more than 200,000 Hu troops to the south, Liu Wei and Li Zhong led the two desperate resistance, and finally won by surprise, burned the Hu logistics camp, won more with less, and achieved a brilliant victory, after the war, Liu Wei was transferred back to Fengjing as the left minister, his return, by the warm welcome of the people of the city.

The second time, it was the first Longyou War, the Jin Dynasty defeated Tubo, after the war, Li Zhong was exactly the same as the previous Liu Ji, was transferred back to Fengjing as the left minister, and his return was also welcomed by the people of the city.

The third time, it is now Li Xun, he led the army to take the entire Western Regions, obtained a huge amount of wealth and money, and supplied most of it to the imperial court, which greatly alleviated the urgent need of the imperial court, and Li Xun's return was also welcomed by the people of the city.

Facts have proved that military victories do not represent everything, but military victories over foreign races can often arouse the people's sense of national honor and arouse strong enthusiasm in their hearts.

Li Xun rode forward slowly, kept waving his hand to the people around him, his face was full of smiles, at this moment, Li Xun had a very full understanding of the word complacency, and now his mood was very refreshing, very excited, and a strong sense of honor made Li Xun's whole person look high-spirited.

In just two miles, Li Xun actually walked for nearly half an hour until he walked out of Qinglong Street, where a large number of officers and soldiers were blocked, and the people were not allowed to gather casually, so it seemed quiet.

For Li Xun's return, not only did he attract a large number of people to greet him, but also many officials came, the officials of the Yang family and the Yiwang forces, whether they came or not, Li Xun didn't know, but most of the officials belonging to the power of the crown prince Zhao Xun came, and the prince Zhao Xun himself also came.

Li Xun walked through the ranks of soldiers, and then saw not far away, Zhao Xun was looking at this side with a smile.

Li Xun hurriedly turned over and dismounted, walked over quickly, clasped his fists and bowed, "Li Xun see His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

Zhao Xun picked up Li Xun, looked at Li Xun carefully, and then said with a smile: "Li Xun, you gave all of us a big surprise!" ”

Li Xun said modestly and respectfully: "Minister Li Xun, never dare to take credit, if it weren't for the emperor and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sitting in Fengjing and giving us full support, this battle of the Western Regions, the minister is difficult to succeed, the greatest credit should be the emperor and His Royal Highness the prince, the minister just did what should be done, just take advantage of the trend." ”

Zhao Xun nodded, looking at Li Xun's eyes full of appreciation, making great achievements without being arrogant, it is indeed commendable, although Li Xun has such a prominent position at a young age, he is able to maintain a normal low-key mentality, it is even more difficult, Li Xun can behave like this, Zhao Xun is naturally very satisfied and happy.

At this time, Sima Tu and the others also dismounted and walked over, all bowing to Zhao Xun.

Zhao Xun waved his hand, signaled everyone to be exempt, and then said with a smile: "You are all meritorious heroes, and I will never treat you badly." ”

"His Royal Highness Prince Xie."

Everyone thanked them loudly.

Chen De and Chen He, although they are Han Chinese, they have lived in the Western Regions for a long time, and it is the first time to go to the hinterland of the Jin Dynasty, what they saw along the way opened their eyes, the country of the Han people, whether it is culture or prosperity, is much stronger than the Western Regions, and more importantly, all of them are people who speak the same words and look the same as them, which gives the two brothers a strong sense of belonging.

Just like a wanderer who has been traveling abroad for many years, recognized for many years, and finally returned to his hometown, when he was strongly welcomed by the people, Li Xun and others were very excited and excited, especially Chen De and Chen He brothers, who were even more excited to shed tears.

Subsequently, Li Xun greeted many officials behind Zhao Xun, and the officials who came, mostly young officials, this is the team created by Zhao Xun in recent years, and Zhao Xun will ascend the throne as the emperor in the future, and there may be a few of them who can finally enter the door of the political hall.

There were really important officials, but there were not a few, but they came Liu Chongji, the middle of the imperial history, and Ge Tao, the right attendant of the Ministry of Industry.

You Min's own brother, Li Xun's brother-in-law You Shaotang also came, but he didn't follow everyone to Li Xun to join in the fun, but came to the carriage and talked to his sister You Min.

Everyone greeted each other for a while, and Zhao Xun pulled Li Xun and said in a low voice: "Although you have achieved great achievements this time, there are more people who are jealous of you, so you must not be arrogant, you still have to act modestly and low-key, and don't leave an excuse for others to attack." ”

Li Xun also whispered: "Don't worry, cousin, I know it in my heart and I won't show it everywhere." ”

Zhao Xun nodded with satisfaction: "You go home and tidy up, and then immediately enter the palace to meet the emperor, I have already set up a banquet, and I will send someone to pick you up for the banquet tomorrow." ”

Li Xun nodded, Zhao Xun is preparing to officially include himself in his core sphere of influence, tomorrow's banquet, belonging to Zhao Xun's core henchmen and officials, I am afraid they will all be present.

Zhao Xun said a few more words, and then left with the officials, his current situation is quite delicate, Li Xun's success is still of great help to Zhao Xun, but it can't be too public, so as not to give the hostile forces another attack on the truth.

Li Xun smiled at Chen He and Chen De brothers: "How do you feel?" ”

Chen He shook his head and did not speak.

Chen De said excitedly: "The Jin Dynasty is very strong and prosperous, returning here, it is like returning home, we will marry and settle here in the future, and the Western Regions do not want to go back." ”

Li Xun nodded and said softly: "I hope all this can last for a long time, there are some things that cannot be changed by one person." ”

With that, Li Xun walked towards the carriage.

Chen De didn't understand the meaning of Li Xun's words, and wanted to ask out loud, but Chen He grabbed him, shook his head, and asked him not to speak.

Li Xun nodded and said softly: "I hope all this can last for a long time, there are some things that cannot be changed by one person." ”

With that, Li Xun walked towards the carriage.

Chen De didn't understand the meaning of Li Xun's words, and wanted to ask out loud, but Chen He grabbed him, shook his head, and asked him not to speak.
