"Brother, it's hard to say, now our brothers have been taken prisoner together, how can this be good?"

Jieli Khan tried hard to break free from the shackles of the dog cage, but the more he struggled, the more useless he became, and finally gave up the struggle altogether, and was ready to give up the treatment·····

"Alas, originally the brother still wanted the eldest brother to lead the troops to rescue the brother? It seems that there is no hope now, and I can't imagine that the two eagles on the grassland, the two greatest heroes, and the two greatest khans, have ended up in the ····· of the world today."

Tuli Khan spoke helplessly, his words full of sentimentality.

The early dynasty of the Tang Dynasty will be carried out in the Xiande Hall on time as scheduled.

"Newspaper, there is a book from the flying pigeon." The voice of the Praetorian Guard sounded outside the door.

"Hurry... Bring it to me. ”

His Majesty Li Er immediately got up when he heard this, and said with a little excitement. He knew that this letter must be related to the soldiers in front of him, and it must be related to the tribe of the Naturi Khan, and it was almost time to calculate the results.

The secret letter was passed through layers of transmission, and finally fell on the imperial case of His Majesty Li Er through the hands of Prime Minister Fang Xuanling.

His Majesty Li Er carefully opened the secret letter, and in an instant, His Majesty Li Er's eyes lit up, and his whole expression became more and more exciting.

"Good ......"

His Majesty Li Er shouted, stunned by the cadres above the court, the military generals of Wenchen.

"Yes, that's great!"

His Majesty Li Er once again took the case, and this time the ministers were sure that it was undoubtedly an absolute victory in the crusade against the Turkic tribes, otherwise His Majesty Li Er would not be so excited.

"Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty......"

The ministers shouted in unison and celebrated.

"Haha...... Ha ha...... Zhong Aiqing was flattened, and the four generals came from the front to report that the Turki Khan had been captured alive by our army and escorted to the border camp, and at the same time, the tribe of the Turki Khan had been occupied by our army and temporarily controlled. In the lair of the Turki Khan, a total of materials were seized, four large carriages of gold, silver and jewelry, 8,000 war horses, 100,000 sheep, grain, salt, iron, weapons, etc.......

His Majesty Li Er's face was ruddy, and his words were full of joy.

"Your Majesty Shengming sent troops to fight against the Turkic tribes, and now he can achieve such a great victory, it is really gratifying, exciting, and encouraging, if the people of the Tang Dynasty learn about this, they will definitely carry forward Your Majesty's eloquence and strategy, so that the four generals in front of them can be like a tiger with wings, defeat Jieli Khan and Tuli Khan, so as to unify the boundless grassland, protect my Tang territory forever, and bless ten thousand years!"

Imperial Doctor Wei Zheng came out of the class and played, his voice was loud and high-pitched, inspiring.

"What Wei Aiqing said is deeply in my heart, I intend to celebrate such a big victory with the people of the Tang Dynasty, I don't know what Aiqing wants?"

His Majesty Li Er asked happily.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the whole world should celebrate together, so as to show His Majesty's kindness to the soldiers in front, and also let the people of the Tang Dynasty feel the joy of being destroyed by the Turks who have endangered the border for hundreds of years, and being destroyed by my Tang Dynasty soldiers, this matter is simply a lot of one stone, why not do it......"

Prime Minister Fang Xuanling respectfully saluted and opened his mouth to play.

"Minister, second!"

As a result, hundreds of civil and military officials came out one after another to second, and the entire Hall of Xiande was surrounded by a kind of extreme joy after the victory, and it could not be dispersed for a long time.

"Well, since all Aiqing are so impassioned, I naturally can't let Zhong Aiqing down. From now on, the hundred officials will have a three-day holiday, proclaiming that all taxes will be exempted from the world this year, so that the whole world will truly celebrate, and on the day when the Tuli Khan and Jieli Khan are escorted back to Chang'an, I will also give amnesty to the world, but those who are not guilty of the most heinous crimes can be dealt with leniently as appropriate......"

His Majesty Li Er said excitedly.

"Your Majesty, Shengming......"

The civil and military officials shouted in unison, it is really not easy for them to have a three-day holiday, this is a great reward, think about it can sleep beautifully, the mood is simply beautiful, and it can't be more beautiful......

"Zhong Aiqing, if you have a good suggestion for managing a large area of grassland land, you can start it, or you can write a recital and hand it to me, I will definitely consider it carefully, and I also ask Zhong Aiqing to give more suggestions and suggestions, and jointly plan how to manage all matters on the grassland."

His Majesty Li Er said solemnly.

"Your Majesty, the ministers should do their best to offer advice and help your Majesty share your worries and solve problems."

The ministers shouted in unison.

"Okay, then I can rest assured, when the army escorts the Tuli Khan and Jieli Khan back, all the Aiqing should go out of the city with me to meet each other!"

His Majesty Li Er said loudly.

"Minister, in accordance with Your Majesty's holy decree, I will go out of the city with Your Majesty to welcome the soldiers who have returned triumphantly."

The high-pitched reply of the civil and military officials sounded again above the court.

"Haha...... Ha ha...... Well, it's rare to have such exciting good news this morning, and I haven't been so happy for a long time. All went to Tao Xiaosheng Restaurant as guests, and informed the restaurant that no other guests should be received for lunch. ”

His Majesty Li Er said to Yang Hao, the chief attendant beside him.

"Your Majesty, the old slave obeys the order, and the old slave will give the order."

The ministers were also pleasantly surprised when they heard this, Tao Xiaosheng Restaurant is not a place where they can consume by relying on Yulu, and now it is rare for His Majesty to have a treat, so I have to taste it today.

The old lady listened to Du Juan's suggestion and did not rush to tell Tao Ran about Du Juan's happiness.

I want to wait to give him a big surprise later.

Suddenly, a carriage stopped at the gate of the Hou Mansion, and it was not the first time that Yang Hao, the head of Yang Hao, had come to the Hou Mansion, and after getting off the car, he entered the Hou Mansion.

"Mr. Yang, what kind of wind blew you here? Come inside and have some tea. ”

The old lady greeted with a smile.

"Old lady, you don't need to drink tea, there is a big event to inform you today, and please tell the restaurant immediately, because Your Majesty has ordered not to go to Nanshan Academy to disturb the Hou Ye, so I can only come to inform the old lady of you." At noon today, His Majesty will lead hundreds of civil and military officials to gather at Tao Xiaosheng Restaurant, and prepare wine and food at that time, so as not to entertain other guests. ”

Mr. Yang solemnly explained.

When the old lady heard this, the good fellow paid it back.

"Don't worry, Mr. Yang, this matter is on the old lady and me, and there is no mistake."

The old lady smiled and agreed.

"In this case, our family will take their leave first."

Yang Hao, the head of Yang Hao, then left with his leave.

"Butler, send it to Mr. Yang." The old lady commanded.

After Manager Yang left, the old lady immediately summoned Gao Hongxiu over.

"Hongxiu! Today's lunch, Your Majesty and the civil and military officials are going to our restaurant to charter the venue, you can explain that you can't receive other guests. so as not to lose the excitement of His Majesty. ”

The old lady solemnly explained.

"Grandma, don't worry. Hongxiu knew what to do. ”

Gao Hongxiu immediately agreed happily, then got up and left the Hou Mansion, got into the carriage and went straight to Tao Xiaosheng Restaurant.

The good news of the great victory of the Northern Expedition was posted to the state capitals and county offices in various places.

For a while, the entire people of the Tang Dynasty knew the news that Jieli Khan and Tuli Khan were captured alive by the Tang Dynasty soldiers.

People are rushing to tell the story, which is a little more lively than the atmosphere of the New Year.

His Majesty's will to exempt all taxes made the people of the Tang Dynasty cheer even more, and now the tax burden has changed a lot compared with the previous dynasty, and it has been reduced by more than half, even so, Your Majesty will reduce it.

The people know that the treasury is empty now, and His Majesty insists on reducing and reducing the people's taxes at the risk of the treasury being empty, which shows that His Majesty loves the people nowadays......

The great world on the good news has also benefited many people.

Many family members who have made mistakes or been imprisoned have hope of becoming a new person.

At the same time, His Majesty Li Er also hopes that after receiving amnesty, they can reform and contribute their meager strength to the production, construction and vigorous development of Datang.

The news of the victory of the Northern Expedition also spread to Nanshan Academy.

The two masters, Li Gang and Kong Yingda, began to talk about the past and the present, and counted the various crimes committed by the Turkic tribes over the past few hundred years.

The end result was that the Turkic tribes were simply heinous and innumerable.

Once the bloody scars are revealed, it is difficult to recover from them.

Even if you forget it for a while, once you think about it, it still makes people shudder and feel creepy.

So the two masters strongly demanded to face the saint, and warned His Majesty not to be soft-hearted to the Tuli Khan and Jieli Khan this time, and let the tiger return to the mountain will leave trouble.

Tao Ran smiled and looked at the two masters and said.

"In fact, at the beginning of this Northern Expedition, His Majesty did not intend to be soft-hearted, otherwise he would not have raised the strength of the whole country to prepare for the war, the patriotism of the two masters, the younger generation admired it very much, but the two masters, don't look down on Your Majesty's determination and expectation to completely solve the Turkic tribes. This can be seen only from the good news posted by His Majesty in the state capital and county government. ”

After the two masters listened to Tao Ran's words, they lost the passion and indignation to continue to face the saint. So as to devote himself to the education work of Nanshan University.

The small earthen house has now become a must-visit place for Princess Changle and Wu Cong every day.

When Tao Ran went, they followed closely, and when Tao Ran didn't go, they sometimes walked together and entered the small earthen house hand in hand.

Today, the small earthen house has been transformed into a sea of green.

There is a green breath of life everywhere, so that the two little girls have to keep admiring every day, the teacher's magic plan.

In fact, their real purpose is to watch the tender green cucumber grow up quickly, the teacher said that when there is a quill as long, he will pick one off for each of them to taste and taste, now it is as long as a quill pen, only a little distance, and it may exceed the length of the quill at any time.

"Look at your eyes, and the teacher will know what you two are thinking? Come, take one off and taste it, and the province will think about it every day. ”

Tao Ran smiled and looked at the two little girls behind him, and spoke.

"The teacher is so nice, thank you, teacher."

Princess Changle and Wu Cong said happily in unison, and then each picked a delicate cucumber.

The cucumber was crispy and delicious, which instantly filled the eyes of the two little girls with joy.

I have never tasted such a crispy taste in winter, which makes Princess Changle and Wu Cong dance happily.

It's as cute as two angels descending from earth.

The crown prince Li Chengqian came to discuss with Tao Ran how to manage the grassland.

Tao Ran was very pleased with the prince Li Chengqian's motivation and studiousness, and being able to take this into account at such a young age was something that Tao Ran had never expected.

So Tao Ran described his thoughts and opinions to the crown prince Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian listened very carefully and attentively, and began to look like he understood whether he understood or not, and gradually Li Chengqian's face became wonderful.

The teacher's ideas opened a new window for his train of thought, and a new kind of thought and concept began to take root in Li Chengqian's mind, so that it continued to expand and grow.

The news of the victory of the Northern Expedition made the students of Nanshan College also excited.

Tao Ran's concept of patriotic education has already achieved initial results, and only when young people begin to implant this concept in the hearts of the people, when they grow up, will a generation of thriving national forces hold up the country, so that this oriental power will stand tall in the east of the world, and will always be admired by the world.

When Tao Ran brought a plate of tender green cucumbers to Li Gang and Kong Yingda, the two masters almost fell to the ground excitedly, this thing really scared the two masters, Rao is two people are full of wealth and learning, but they still can't understand how Tao Ran made cucumbers appear on the table in the cold winter season.

"Master Hou, this ····· How did you do it this season? ”

The two masters finally asked after tasting a bite.

"The younger generation just provided them with the right soil and temperature, and they grew up in the cold winter, these things were never broken on the table of the younger generation when the family teacher was alive, and the younger generation never broke the table all year round, and it was just picked today, so I quickly invited the two masters to try it, in order to thank the two masters for the pain of teaching during this time."

Tao Ran replied with a smile.

"Hou Ye said this seriously, the old man and the two of them now feel a lot more in the academy than they were before, and they all feel energetic, to be honest, everything in the academy is much better than the best result that the old man could think of when he first came, if you want to talk about gratitude, the old man has to thank the little Hou Ye to ······."

The three of them talked and laughed together, and a plate of tender cucumbers was also deliciously eaten.

After receiving the flying pigeon message from His Majesty Li Er, the four generals immediately began to prepare to escort Jieli Khan and Tuli Khan back to Chang'an.

Of the 30,000 troops who had come from the expedition, 20,000 were temporarily left in the vast steppe to prevent the resurgence of the Turkic fish, and to fulfill the duty of supervising the land.

The soldiers said that they would keep in mind the great trust of the four generals, never disappoint the expectations of the generals, and manage this barren land well, waiting for the officials appointed by the imperial court to officially take over.

The four generals left all the grain and grass prepared during the Northern Expedition to the soldiers stationed there, after all, they are what they need the most.
