Chapter 371: Estrangement

"The performance of the Ministry of Rites this time is terrible, I want to kill them with my own hands, you know?"

Li Chengqian was also shocked by the bloody plot of a few passers-by who changed a great change, but Cai Cong's words made him excited, which was by no means a joke.

"I have already reported this matter to my father, and my father will definitely not protect them, don't mess around!"

"Hmph, one by one, holding a strong body, what do you want to explain? Such a person staying in the court will only be a scourge, and if I don't teach them a lesson, I can't swallow this breath. As my best friend, you wouldn't want to stop me, would you? ”

Cai Cong looked at Li Chengqian with the eyes of a traitor who disagreed, Li Chengqian turned his head: "I don't know what you're talking about, since there's nothing to do here, I'll go back first, I sent someone to report to my father before I left, and my father should send someone here." ”

"In that case, then you should go back first! I'll go back and drink with you again, and I have to serve this group of wronged uncles today. ”

Cai Cong watched Li Chengqian leave, the prince gradually grew older, and some things he had learned to avoid, such as rewarding the three armies, which had to be done by the emperor by people, which was definitely not what Li Chengqian should do.

"Master, why did the prince leave?"

Fang Yuan asked in confusion, Cai Cong kicked him and said with a smile: "So what do you do with gossip?" Hurry up and get ready to meet the angels. ”

"Angels? Does the court remember us? We're the devil of murder! Fang Yuan asked self-deprecatingly, who in the world didn't know the shame of the new army's defeat of Pyongyang, and the defeat of the Han people in Liaodong many times.

But what greeted them? Is it indifference, hatred, disgust, what exactly have they done wrong? They just want to come back alive, is that wrong?

"Shut up! What is the mission of the Forces nouvelles? ”

In the face of Cai Cong's yelling, the surrounding new troops immediately straightened up and shouted at the top of their throats: "Defend the Tang Dynasty and expand the territory!" ”

"Do you remember what your mission is? But what are you doing one by one? complaining, scolding, and some people pull out knives to chop wood, all of them are wronged, right? Lao Tzu told you, what is the grievance of the first army in the world? In the future, you will have to face more incomprehension and hatred, do you have to solve you every time? ”

Cai Cong said that he couldn't control his emotions, so he kicked a few times with all his strength. Fang Yuan was the person he was most optimistic about except for Meng Baolai, but he didn't expect to be so arrogant.

In today's situation, Fang Yuan should have taken various army commanders and lieutenants to enlighten those soldiers, but what did they do? took the lead in complaining one by one, even Xu Jie was the same, he almost didn't scare Cai Cong out of his problem, fortunately a group of relatives of the former Sui soldiers arrived, otherwise it would be troublesome.

"Master Hou, I ......"

"What am I? Is drinking two more bowls of wine your excuse? You are still the first army in the world? Tomorrow I will all go back to the boot camp for practice. Do you feel wronged, Bora is still looking for us in Liaodong? Are they more aggrieved? ”

Cai Cong's angry questioning made Fang Yuan speechless, he really wanted to say that he had drunk too much, but Cai Cong would not accept this reason.

The conversation between the two slowly spread in the army, and many soldiers couldn't raise their heads in shame, since they wanted to be the first army in the world, what was this grievance? Didn't you complain when you didn't see the Hou Ye?

It didn't take long for Changsun Wuji to arrive with a large team, and the whole army was boiling, knowing that the prince had just left, and the emperor sent his henchman Changsun Wuji, which gave enough face.

The eldest grandson Wuji smiled like Maitreya Buddha, seeing that everyone was smiling, Li Shimin's holy decree was about to be written, and none of the whole army could hear Cai Cong completely, but they grinned one by one, anyway, they could hear that the emperor was praising himself, and now the ancestral tomb was smoking.

But what made everyone happiest was that the emperor's reward was too real, all real money, which was much more than praise.

"Your Majesty has a decree and orders you to enter the palace immediately, and you can leave it to the old man here."

After the eldest grandson Wuji pacified the soldiers, he said to Cai Cong, Cai Cong nodded, and headed towards the palace with a team of personal guards.

Li Shimin was copying Wang Xizhi's words, but he was uneasy, and the words he wrote were similar but not like gods, and he put down his pen and said to himself: "If you can't concentrate, you really can't write good words." ”

"Your Majesty, the Marquis of Chang'an asks to see you."

Yan Dong stood at the door and said respectfully, he has aged very fast in the past few years, except for waiting by Li Shimin's side, he basically lies in his yard and basks in the sun the rest of the time.

"Announce him in."

Li Shimin said lightly, if he came back from winning the battle with a great general, he should be celebrating him in the Chaotian Palace at this moment. But Cai Cong is really not suitable to celebrate this time, slaughter the city! Counting the history of recent decades, absolutely no one slaughtered the city more thoroughly than Cai Cong, which hurts the heavens and the peace!

"Minister, Cai Cong greets Your Majesty."

"Let's get flat!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Cai Cong got up and stood with his hands tied, without saying a word, and he had nothing to say.

"I asked you to go to Youzhou to intimidate Goguryeo, and you did a good job. The king of Goguryeo has become a puppet, and now that Yuan Taizuo is in charge, Goguryeo is in turmoil! More than a dozen small countries on the border of the Tang Dynasty have already sent submissions, and even Feng Ang immediately sent people to pay tribute, you are now powerful all over the world! ”

Li Shimin said very calmly, Cai Cong couldn't tell whether he was happy or angry, but Cai Cong heard the strong sense of ridicule.

"The minister is only acting on orders, His Majesty wants the minister to retrieve the remains of the former Sui soldiers, and the minister has already retrieved all of them, and this tiger talisman will be returned to Your Majesty."

Cai Cong knelt on the ground and said expressionlessly, raising his hands high to offer the tiger talisman.

Li Shimin looked down on him, didn't go to get the tiger talisman, didn't let him get up, just looked at him.

"The Ministry of Rites embarrassed you this time, and almost caused a mutiny, I have already sent someone to put them in prison, and they will be beheaded tomorrow."

"Please don't kill them, just remove them from their official positions."

Cai Cong immediately said, killing them like this, they all fell into the name of a hundred generations, what a beautiful thought!

"Press? If you are really a good person, you will repay them, or I will demote them to ordinary people and never hire them. It also makes you angry, but I also advise you not to act too perversely, you are too casual in doing things. ”

"Obey."

"Alright, let's go home first! As soon as I was rewarded, I will come to your house and go back to talk to your family, and I will understand where your jade should come from. Your mother is really good at it, the legs of the Fang family have been discounted, and she still can't go to the ground! ”

"The son doesn't say anything about the mother, but the minister will send someone to send an apology gift to the house when he turns around. The minister retired. ”

Cai Cong said and withdrew from the imperial study, and both of them breathed a sigh of relief, and there was finally a gap between the monarch and the minister. Li Shimin's dishonesty and Cai Cong's family's reckless behavior have to be inserted into the other party's heart like a stab, although it is not very painful, but it makes people feel uncomfortable.

Fang Xuanling was waiting for Cai Cong at the palace gate, in fact, Chu Suiliang was the most responsible for this matter, but because he was the head of the hundred officials, he had to stand up unavoidably.
