Chapter 779: Double Happiness Comes to the Door
That night, about the train, I didn't go away, and the whole Chang'an City was talking about the train.
Everyone was talking about all the trains, and the Imperial Examination Department was specifically mentioned, and many people even wanted to join it.
At this time, in the East Palace, Guan Lishi leaned in Li Chengqian's ear and said a few words.
"Very well, has everyone heard about tomorrow's train?"
"Yes, some people can't wait to see it now."
"The scene must be well guarded, so that people can come in and watch it tomorrow!"
"Yes! It's all arranged, people are watching everything about the train along the way, and 100,000 people will be there to watch! ”
All this was done by Li Chengqian, everything he specially arranged, why? It's not because of the points, he doesn't have more than two million points now, and if there is any need, the points required by his system are very huge.
Something like the last time must happen as little as possible, in case he didn't find a time lapse back then, he might not even have a wife.
"Very good, you did a good job! Reward! ”
"His Royal Highness Prince Xie!"
Suddenly, a small yellow door came running in from the outside.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Your Majesty is invited!"
It's so late, what is Li Shimin looking for himself?
"Well, this king knows!"
After Xiaohuangmen went down, Li Chengqian said again: "Wang Xuance, you stay in the East Palace, and no one can enter the East Palace!" Guan Lishi, you go to Taiji Palace with this king! ”
"Yes!"
After the last incident, Li Chengqian's guards of the East Palace have become stricter.
The two responded, and Li Chengqian went to Taiji Palace.
When he arrived at the Taiji Palace, Li Shimin and Empress Changsun were waiting for him at the door.
"Come on, come on, Gao Ming, you're here!"
After Li Shimin finished speaking, he reached out to pull Li Chengqian.
This made Li Chengqian a little depressed, what's wrong? This guy is so enthusiastic today.
However, Empress Changsun seemed to see Li Chengqian's doubts, so she said: "Your Majesty heard that there is a train to verify, and you want to go to see it, Your Majesty wants to ask you if you can do it this night?" ”
All this is because the two brothers Li Ke kept boasting about how good the train was, and described it vividly, so that Li Shimin wanted to see it very much after listening to it.
From his performance, it can be seen that Li Shimin originally wanted to take the train, but now there is still construction, and it is night, and there is nothing to see.
So he said: "Your Majesty, the train is still being debugged, this is one of them, and the second is that due to the poor vision at night, the train cannot be seen completely, and it is very pleasant to see the scenery on the train." ”
"If that's the case, I really can't watch it, I still want to set off some fireworks in the evening to celebrate!"
Now Li Shimin has to set off fireworks for everything, this guy is really fascinated by fireworks.
"Yes, Your Majesty, tomorrow, as long as tomorrow comes, you will definitely be able to let Your Majesty and the Queen Mother have a glimpse."
"Your Majesty, Gao Ming is right, the so-called impatience can't eat hot tofu, and it doesn't hurt to wait another night."
Empress Eldest Sun persuaded.
"That's it! If that's the case, then I'll wait for tomorrow. ”
In the end, Li Shimin finally gave up watching it that night.
In fact, as long as he gave the order, he could watch it at any time, but since this matter was very important, and Li Chengqian persuaded him, he still followed Li Chengqian's advice.
"By the way, pass on my will, tomorrow all the ministers will cancel the morning dynasty and go to the Ministry of Science and Technology to witness the miracle!"
Li Shimin did this, which is tantamount to fueling Li Chengqian's troubles, and then Li Chengqian can perform well, let the train enter the Tang Dynasty, let the railway cover the entire land of Datang, and even extend to the periphery, wherever the railway goes, it is the land of Datang.
This is good, when Li Chengqian was about to withdraw, suddenly a soldier came to report.
"Report! General Qin led the army to return to the north gate of Chang'an fifty miles away! ”
It was already winter, and the heavy snow was gradually closing the road, and it was impossible for the Turks in the north to invade, so Qin Qiong was allowed to return to Chang'an Province.
The spies in front also reported that Qin Qiong also returned with a big gift this time!
"What! Uncle Bao has returned! Come and greet you at the city gate! ”
Li Shimin's interest became very high.
After that, he remembered something again, so he said: "Let the civil and military officials go out of the city gate to greet them!" ”
"Yes!"
Thinking about how unpopular Li Shimin was when Qin Qiong was seriously ill at that time, and now that he has returned victoriously and made a lot of achievements, how could Li Shimin not pay attention to it?
All of this was done by Li Chengqian, without him, Qin Qiong was still drunk at this time, did nothing, relied on his previous military exploits, and sat and waited for death.
Now it's different, he is a hero, and the lights of Chang'an today are brighter because of him.
The entire Chang'an was directly boiling at the moment when Li Shimin announced it.
It was early in the morning, and some of the civil and military officials had fallen asleep, and all of them were called up.
They dressed up and headed for the city gates.
All of a sudden, the lights above the city gate were bright, and Li Shimin waited outside the city gate.
Except for the last time when Xue Rengui and Su Lie returned, this was the second time that Li Shimin personally waited for the return of the generals outside the city gate.
The civil and military officials were lined up left and right, and Li Shimin looked at the faint light in the distance and said, "How long will it take?" ”
Cheng Yanjin replied: "According to the minister's calculations, Qin Qiong will return in a quarter of an hour!" ”
"I can't wait!"
Li Shimin said.
The ministers also looked into the distance with excited expressions.
There were large snowflakes in the sky, and after such a period of tossing, it was now close to morning.
"Look at General Qin!"
Someone saw the army in the distance and said.
Sure enough, a large army slowly approached the city gates.
At this time, the sky is close to the white of the fish's belly.
"Come on, follow me to welcome Uncle Bao's return!"
As soon as Li Shimin gave the order, everyone went forward.
A moment later, Qin Qiong rode to Li Shimin's place.
As soon as he saw Li Shimin come out to greet him, he dismounted and made a big salute to Li Shimin.
"Minister, meet Your Majesty, the Queen, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
At this time, Li Chengqian and Li Shimin were equally important, at least in Qin Qiong's heart.
Li Shimin laughed.
"Hurry up, please!"
After finishing the matter, he took Qin Qiong's hand.
"Tell me about it, what is the specific situation of the battle?"
Qin Qiong said: "In the past half a year, our army has won many battles!" Constantly breaking down the Turkic defenses. During this period of time, a total of 30,000 enemy troops were captured, and now all of them have been captured back to Chang'an City! ”
Qin Qiong's words made Li Shimin a little puzzled.
"Why did you take the captives?"
"This is what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince meant, and the minister doesn't know."
Qin Qiong said.
Now everyone is even more puzzled.
Li Shimin asked:
"Gao Ming, what's going on?"
Because of this, he also knew nothing.
Therefore, he had to ask why Li Chengqian did this.
Li Chengqian just said: "Your Majesty, this matter, after watching the train for a while, you will know!" ”
Since Li Chengqian said so, Li Shimin didn't say anything anymore.
Empress Changsun said at this time: "Your Majesty, today is really a double happiness, Uncle will return victorious, and he will go to see the train for a test run." ”
"Yes, yes, yes! In this case, let's do this first, come and take the captives in custody first! As for Shubao, the celebration banquet will be held after watching the train! ”
Where did Qin Qiong dare to say no, and said yes again and again.
Then 30,000 captives were directly detained and sent to Chang'an City.
By this time the sky had turned white.
The group went to the location of the Ministry of Science and Technology.
