Chapter 947: The Mad Demon's Banquet

After sacrificing to the old brother, Leng Feng felt that all the resentment that had accumulated in his heart since the previous few years had been resolved.

Li Xiaogong is the same, when he entered the cemetery, everyone was cautious, but when he came out, he became relaxed.

"Brothers, children, take care of them. Whether they can become talents or not, at least keep them safe for the rest of their lives. That's what we can do for our brothers! ”

The two dogs nodded, in fact, they didn't need to be specifically ordered by the boss, they had always done this.

Walking down the mountain, Li Xiaogong said to Leng Feng: "Over there in Silla, it is estimated that it will not be delayed for too long. The main forces of the two countries have gone to the Japanese country to survive, and those who remain are the old and weak who are reluctant to leave their homeland. When the army returns, it is estimated that His Majesty will abdicate. ”

Leng Feng was taken aback, Li Shimin only told him the idea of abdication, but he didn't expect Li Xiaogong to guess it.

Seeing that Leng Feng was surprised, Li Xiaogong smiled: "Your Majesty is my cousin, I have fought with him for so many years, and I know him too well. If he didn't think about abdicating, it would be absolutely impossible for him to hand over power to Cheng Qian, even if Cheng Qian was his own son. ”

Leng Feng nodded, but didn't say anything more on this topic. It is better not to publicize the abdication too widely. It's not that I'm afraid that someone will think about it, but ....

Leng Feng hopes that when the history books are recorded, it will look better.

An emperor who is conscious and takes the initiative to abdicate is much better than being persuaded or forced to abdicate.

The court of the Tang Dynasty has formed a fixed pattern, because of the agreement between Leng Feng and Yan Xiangshi, the big conflict has never happened. The prince is diligent, the officials are harmonious, the people are stable, and the so-called prosperous era is probably like this.

On the 20th day of April in the 24th year of Jeongguan, the army of the expedition to Baekje in Silla returned. Chang'an was just a day of excitement, and then it fell silent, and the people no longer worried about the war. Today's Datang has won a hundred battles, Silla? Baekje? Where I haven't heard of it, I don't think it's a great character. Instead of caring about side affairs, it is better to care about which workshop to work in when the farm is not working.

On the first day of May, when the hundred officials went to court as usual, they were surprised to find that the emperor who had been sitting on the high dragon chair was replaced, and the crown prince was standing below in a regular manner.

As usual, the court meeting is stable today, and there is almost nothing for the emperor to worry about, and the officials are not qualified to participate in the things that the emperor needs to worry about.

By noon, the matter was dealt with.

After repeated inquiries, Li Shimin spoke: "I have been feeling upset and irritable recently, as long as I ride out for a walk, it will be relieved a lot, I think I have been in the palace for too long." Last year's autumn hunt, I didn't hold it, and now I want to make up for it, do you have any objections? ”

Wei Zheng's successor, Jiang Yi, stood up: "Your Majesty, at this time, it is the season when the seedlings have just emerged and the product is not high, and the beasts in the mountains are short of food at this time, and there are always those who harm the crops, and the people are miserable. If you go hunting, you will be disturbed by the wild beasts in the mountains, which will not be good for farming.

In addition, just after the cold winter, the beast is just over the time when the body is thin, there is no oil and water, and it is not as fat as when it was hunting in autumn. Therefore, Wechen asks His Majesty to think twice before acting. ”

Jiang Yi is a young man who is Wen Zou Zou, although he inherited Wei Zheng's temper, but he is still a little different from Wei Zheng, at least he will explain the reason clearly first, as for Wei Zheng, although he is also reasonable, but I don't know why he always has a smell of gunpowder.

Against Jiang Yi, Li Shimin is much easier.

Picking up a book, Li Shimin said: "This is the county order of several counties around Chang'an, it is a fact that the wild beasts of the Qinling Mountains come out of the mountains, if they will disturb the wild beasts and harm the crops, I will definitely not go hunting." However, the twists and turns of these counties showed that the people's efforts to drive out the wild beasts had little effect, and the imperial court was asked to send some troops to drive away the wild beasts. I was also worried about people's livelihoods, so I approved this setback. Since the army is destined to be dispatched, it is not a big deal for me to take the opportunity to hunt! ”

Jiang Yi nodded and simply returned to his original position.

No one stopped him, so Li Shimin began to summon retired officials, even Wei Zheng, the person he least wanted to see.

Leng Feng, who was sitting at the head of the general's side, smiled slightly and guessed what Li Shimin meant.

It was his last willfulness, his last before his abdication. Compared to holding a big feast in the palace, hunting is a little more lively.

Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Li Jing, Cheng Yanjin.... One by one, the old ministers of Zhenguan were summoned, whether it was Fang Xuanling Du Ruhui, who was busy printing books, or Wei Zheng, who was coughing at home and couldn't get up, they all readily agreed.

They also knew that this was the last gathering of the courtiers belonging to the Zhenguan Dynasty.

The newly established Dragon Tooth Guard, Zuo Wuwei, and the Xuanjia Army, which still maintained its structure, escorted the emperor and his old ministers into the Qinling Mountains with a mighty army of 50,000. And the courtiers who are now serving in the court are left in place, staring at them with big eyes.

Entering the Qinling Mountains, Li Shimin turned his head and said to Leng Feng dissatisfiedly: "This is our fun, why are you still in the court!" ”

Leng Feng smiled, not embarrassed: "Wait a few days, I'm going to retire too, why can't I come over as a person who is about to retire?" ”

Li Xiaogong laughed: "It's a good time, I heard that the archery skills of the Protector of the Kingdom have not diminished back then, and the old man also feels that he has not completely abolished it, and he will compare it later!" ”

The army completely entered the Qinling Mountains, and the generals and their troops began to stretch a long line to force the beasts to migrate inward, and there were bursts of thunder and explosions.

There is nothing more suitable than thunder to drive away wild beasts, and the thunderbolts used here are all defective products made of gunpowder misconfigured by the lightning division, and the waste utilization also eliminates the need for destruction.

The generals hunted, and the ministers camped and prepared the banquet. knew the emperor's thoughts, and everyone was not stingy, and almost brought out all the good wine at the bottom of the box at home.

At night, the old generals germinated in a solid state, and they fought enthusiastically, really warmly, and some took off their clothes and armor, and picked up their knives and got on the horses. The Wenchen got together to study the new book with Fang Xuanling, and talked about the rise, the cups were staggered, and they drank not much less than the generals.

Leng Feng, who was drinking tea on the side, was tied up by Li Shimin, and the two jars of wine were drunk, and all kinds of games were played.

The outermost guards and maids, except for carrying wine, no one dared to come over, and no one dared to come forward to persuade them to stop.

This is a carnival, the end of an era.

It's a feast, and it's a farewell at the same time.

"When is the bright moon, the party will take a night, the general is white-headed, and the prime minister has a glass of wine."

Drinking back and forth, Leng Feng also drank too much, reciting meaningless poems, and went to Fang Xuanling's side with a cup.

At the end of the drink, the military generals of Wenchen were no longer divided into groups, but gathered together.

Li Shimin was naturally the key target of the pouring, and under the shaking, a belly of wine and meat sprayed on Wei Chigong's body.

Wei Chigong doesn't care if the emperor is not the emperor, he will wrestle when he rolls up his sleeves.

The monarch wrestled, but both fell down and snored.

Drink to the end, no one knows who will have the last laugh. Even Wei Zheng, who was ill, was drunk without scruples.

It's a nostalgia and a celebration. The Tang Dynasty in the Zhenguan Dynasty has evolved into a prosperous era after all. To be able to build such a prosperous world with their own hands, they are both proud and reluctant.
