Chapter 657: A returns to Chang'an
Maybe, no, no, maybe, I will definitely become the Emperor of the Ages!
The pacification of Goryeo was handed over to Zhang Khan Zhi, a graduate disciple of the Academy of Letters, the crusade room Wei Jingyi was handed over to Tang Jin and Xue Rengui, and the head of the march, he appointed it to Li Ke.
The generals are already old, like Cheng Biting Jin, who used to be just slippery in their mouths, but now, as long as the weather enters the cold, they will be uncomfortable and restless.
This is the root of the disease left by the battle in the early years, and even Li Shimin feels that his knees are extremely sore.
The next few years will belong to these young people, and their existence is just to train the next generation and make them qualified commanders.
Forty-nine thousand soldiers, in a long procession, followed a carriage. Advance to Chang'an.
It was not Li Shimin on the carriage, but the set of armor that was moving slowly and coldly in the smoke.
In the preconceived belief that Leng Feng was dead, Leng Feng's armor became a substitute for himself.
Li Shimin didn't mind what kind of glory he gave this set of armor.
When he went out to Chang'an to the east, he ordered the towns along the road to prepare some supplies for him at most, and not to be extravagant and wasteful.
But now escorting Leng Feng's armor back to Chang'an, he requires that the road must be greeted with imperial etiquette, loess mat road, clean water sprinkled street, every time passing by the temple Taoist temple, Li Shimin will get off the horse and go in, incense and pray.
No one thinks that the emperor is putting on a show, a person who fell to protect the emperor, what kind of etiquette the emperor prepares for him is not too much.
The army was moving slowly.
But the news was transmitted quickly, and the emperor's team only reached Taiyuan, and the news that "the Duke of Xi Guogong protected His Majesty and died in battle, and there were no bones left, and only a pair of armor remained" reached Chang'an.
Li Chengqian didn't expect the news to be delivered so quickly, and before he could order the news to be blocked, he was called to Lengfu by his wife.
With a nervous mood, Li Chengqian pushed off the court meeting and walked into the cold mansion.
In front of the mansion, his younger brothers and sisters were already waiting for him.
Leng Yuewu pear blossom brought rain, choked up and said, "Senior Brother Prince, why are you hiding it from me and my mother, you even told my brother, why didn't you tell us?" ”
Li Chengqian was very helpless, and the cold competition on the side had nothing to say.
Because his mind has been far beyond ordinary people since he was a child, Leng Jing accepted the news that his father had died very strongly, and after the initial sadness, he did not show it in front of his mother and sister.
Unexpectedly, rumors are the most pervasive channel, and they originally planned to wait for the emperor to escort the armor back before announcing the truth. But rumors have advanced the process by more than a month.
After appeasing his senior sister, Li Chengqian walked into the living room of the cold mansion.
The furnishings of the original cold house have been changed to white, and the living room has been changed into a mourning hall.
Today's Liu Shuwen is kneeling in front of a spirit card, quietly watching the flames of the lights and candles beating.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Li Chengqian shouted bitterly, "Master"
Liu Shuwen turned her head, except for her pale face, she didn't see any traces of crying.
"Cheng Qian, my wife doesn't blame you for concealing it, I called you over today just to ask how your master died."
Liu Shuwen's voice was a little hoarse, which made people very uncomfortable to listen to.
Li Chengqian looked at his junior sister, then at his wife with a pale face, hesitated for a moment, but still told the "truth".
After listening to Li Chengqian's story, Liu Shuwen did not cry except that her face was a little paler.
In other words, at this time, she couldn't cry anymore.
There is no greater mourning than death.
"You all go out, I want to be alone for a while."
"Teacher's Mother"
"Mother"
Li Chengqian and Leng Jing saw that Liu Shuwen had turned their heads and could only leave the living room.
Leng Yuewu did not leave, but slowly walked to her mother's side and snuggled up with her mother.
A month later, the returning team finally arrived at the gate of Chang'an City.
Because the news had reached Chang'an City, the queen personally ordered the whole city to hang a spirit flag, with a second only to "the emperor is dead." The world is vegetarian" etiquette greeting.
The Martial Arts Academy of Literature went on strike, and the students were all dressed in white robes and stood guard on both sides of the city gate. Many people and wealthy families in Chang'an City also spontaneously joined the greeting procession.
Silent greeting.
Originally, the expedition to Goryeo and the great victory were feats of annihilation. However, the death of the Duke of the Kingdom of Seo, compared to the fall of such a figure, subduing Goryeo, seems so boring.
The team advanced all the way to Lengfu.
Liu Shuwen waited in front of the door with her children, and in the autumn breeze, she was dressed in white like catkins, as if she could be blown away by the wind at any time.
Li Shimin jumped off the horse, walked to Leng Jing's side, patted him on the shoulder, and said to Liu Shuwen, "I owe you a debt!" ”
Liu Shuwen shook her head, bypassed the emperor, walked to the carriage, and lifted the curtain of the carriage.
In the carriage, it was the armor.
The sword marks and arrow holes on the armor were still preserved, and when Liu Shuwen took it out, she also saw the armor leaves on the back of the armor.
Just by looking at this armor, you can understand what kind of battle Leng Feng went through at that time.
If it weren't for the fact that the blood stains on it had been washed away by the rain, it might be more vivid.
Leng Jing came over and wanted to help his mother carry the armor together, but Liu Shuwen refused.
In this way, Liu Shuwen held her armor and walked into the cold mansion slowly but firmly.
The people in front of the cold mansion looked at it like this, and their hearts invariably swelled with a sourness.
The scene in front of the Leng Mansion in front of him is also a microcosm of the homes of the soldiers who died in the Tang Dynasty after the Goryeo War.
War has always been a price for both sides.
Leng Jing and Leng Yuewu were worried about their mother and followed them into the Leng Mansion.
Looking at the plaque of "Xiguo Mansion" wrapped in white silk in front of the Leng Mansion, Li Shimin sighed and asked Li Chengqian, "Where is the green sparrow?" Why don't you see him? ”
Li Chengqian replied, "Qingque is smart, he has already guessed it, and now he, together with Di Renjie and Wu Mei, is developing a steam engine. They wanted to complete the steam engine as a tribute to Master. ”
Li Shimin walked towards Leng Fuzhong, and asked as he walked, "Your younger brothers and junior disciples have their own ways of paying tribute to their master, what about you?" ”
Li Chengqian followed behind his father and was silent.
Li Ke is a military general, and he can sacrifice his master with the blood of his enemies.
Li Tai, Di Renjie, and Wu Mei are extremely smart, and they can fulfill their master's wish to develop a steam engine to pay tribute to their master.
And he, although he is the crown prince, wants to pay tribute to the master, but he is a little powerless and doesn't know how to start.
Seeing Li Chengqian's tangled appearance, Li Shimin sighed and said, "Haven't you already found out that those people were involved in the rebellion?" Let go and clean them up, the court of the Tang Dynasty must always see blood to be pure. ”
