Wang Shi set the Central Plains Day in the north, and the family sacrifice did not forget to tell Naiweng. Go north in early spring and enter the autumn class. The remnants of the forbidden army are still stabilizing the situation in the north, and Li Ji has already returned to the DPRK.

I thought that the war would be pacified in at least three or five years, but it was only more than half a year, and they were beaten and fled.

The war in the south is advancing all the way, and the Zhanyun Peng Department is directly fought by the Dragon and Tiger Army and Xiao Nuoyan's Mabu Army, Ma Yin and Yang Xingmi, crying and calling their mothers, and it is a matter of time before they recover.

Datang has entered the era of hot weapons.

Fanzhen: I have a million soldiers.

Li Ji: I have a musket.

Fanzhen: I have heavy cavalry armor.

Li Ji: I have a musket.

Fanzhen: "I have a crossbowman, a spearman, an axeman, and a shieldman.

Li Ji: I have a musket.

Fanzhen: Can we not mention the musket?

Li Ji: I have cannons.

Domain: MMP.

That's probably what it means, my forbidden army won't fight, I'll only call you with that musket. My forbidden army will fight, and I will only call you with a musket.

If you come, as long as you can stop my musket, I will bombard you with cannons. That's right, if you don't agree to cut the domain, I'll bully you.

Preliminary verification shows that this time there was an all-out war against the feudal town. 100,000 forbidden troops left Luoyang, and the forbidden army suffered 820 casualties. Of these, 512 were non-combat casualties, that is, deaths from illness and accidents.

Three hundred and eight people died on the battlefield, most of them died from cold arrows and cleaning the battlefield.

As for the feudal towns, there were more than 100,000 dead and wounded, and it is impossible to actually count them, and 367,000 people surrendered.

The Tang Dynasty, which had been a plague for a hundred years, was basically cleared.

Li Ji created an unprecedented miracle, Luoyang City, Li Ji's class teacher.

The dogleg came with him, serving Li Ji along the way.

The imperial sedan chair slowly entered, and you could see the smoke curling in Luoyang City from a distance, and the prosperous capital was close in front of you.

"Your Majesty, the civil and military officials have greeted you outside the southern city." Youwei ran over and said.

Li Ji frowned: "Order, go to the west gate."

Everyone was very surprised, the emperor has never followed the routine, what kind of trouble is this.

You dare to ask: "Your Majesty, why is this?" Hundreds of officials welcome, Your Majesty built this immortal achievement. Naturally, they will bow down and move the heavens and the earth. ”

"I'm afraid that they will cry out to the sky, and it will be like a mourning, and my goosebumps will come out. Let the forbidden army go through the south gate, let's quietly go to the west gate, bypass them and go back to the palace. ”

The ministers wanted to seduce themselves, and the civil official group headed by Dugu and Kong Lin had been waiting outside the city for a long time. As soon as the emperor got into the sedan chair, they began to bow down, followed by crying.

After howling the ancestors, the ancestors will be grateful to His Majesty for his majesty's divine might, and he will build this great achievement and not the foundation of the world. Gratitude is beyond words.

Li Ji is most annoyed by this kind of scene, if it is said that when he killed Zhu Wen, Li Ji did follow the ministers for a while, it feels good. But you're boiling so much every day, it's embarrassing.

The treasury is full of your blood, the grain harvest is boiling, and the steel is surging you, and you will be annoyed if you are excited to level the feudal town this time, so Li Ji wants to hide.

"It's coming, it's coming!" Dugu stabbed Kong Lin.

Then the ministers saw that the forbidden army was carrying spears and cannons with high spirits, and returned triumphantly full of dust.

The ministers took a stance and prepared to kneel and cry, and then they realized that something was wrong.

"Lao Kong, why don't you see Luanjia?" Dugu lost his eyes and looked out. Kong Lin is also looking left and right, yes, why is there no emperor Luan sedan chair.

Yang Binbin, the general of the forbidden army, arrived first on a high-headed horse. Then Guest Yang dismounted and bowed his hand: "Lord Dugu, Master Kong, Your Majesty wants me to tell you." This Northern Expedition cost the people and money, and the casualties of our Tang people were incalculable, and I felt very guilty. Today's celebration of the triumph of the king and the master will be done. ”

Dugu and Kong Lin looked at each other, what is this called. The king was triumphant, and His Majesty didn't even celebrate it wantonly, which didn't chill the hearts of the soldiers.

In fact, this is just Li Ji's excuse, the last sacrifice to the ancestral temple and the canonization ceremony almost killed him, and this group of civil officials was endless. In the end, Li Ji pulled a face and barely finished it. If the civil officials were long-winded, Li Ji was afraid that he would have kicked it over earlier.

The emperor quietly slipped back to the palace, and this huge joyful victory of the king was more like a farce.

The emperor triumphed, and the ministers had to celebrate. So the ministers returned to the palace again, wanting to find Li Ji to sing praises and virtues.

Such a great miracle recaptured the territory of Li Cunqing, Liu Rengong, and Li Maozhen in the north, and the emperor didn't know what he thought. The emperor did not celebrate, and quietly returned to the palace.

In this case, the ministers had no choice but to enter the palace.

Who knew that as soon as they entered the palace, Youwei stopped them: "Ladies and gentlemen, Your Majesty has a decree that it is forbidden to celebrate on the table, and the morning will continue as usual tomorrow morning." If you have anything to say, let's talk about it tomorrow morning. ”

Dugu understood that the emperor wanted to be humble. If you have made a miracle in the world, you have to pretend, but the emperor has pretended to be too much: "No, Your Majesty has been personally driving the expedition, and the hard work is high." Our courtiers have nothing to do in this Luoyang City, and the ministers must meet Your Majesty and admire Your Majesty's might. ”

The ministers are full of blood, they like the surging, even more than those soldiers who are on the bloody battlefield: "Yes, we want to meet Your Majesty." Your Majesty has made great achievements, how can he be so low-key, and if this is to be spread, won't it be said that we are disloyal and unrighteous as courtiers? ”

"That's it, we want to see Your Majesty!"

The ministers were gearing up, more enthusiastic than the soldiers on the battlefield. They are all the same as Dugu Zheng, and they think that Li Ji is pretending to be forced.

Who knew that Youwei said next: "Ladies and gentlemen, Your Majesty also said that if the courtiers don't know what to do and insist on breaking into the palace, let the slaves and maids tell him, get out!" Roll as far as you want! ”

The ministers immediately changed their faces, what does the emperor mean.

"This, what kind of system is this!" Dugu said angrily: "Your Majesty has made a great contribution, do you want to empty everything, this is to chill the hearts of the people in the world!" Shake the head office of the country! ”

Dugu was indignant, rolled up his sleeves and scolded. It's a pity that the thunder is heavy and the rain is small, and I don't dare to take another half a step forward.

Kong Lin pulled him aside: "Lord Dugu, pay attention to your words and deeds." The success of His Majesty's Northern Expedition can be said to have shaken the community. Let's go, let's go, maybe Your Majesty really doesn't like us old things to be verbose, let's disperse, disperse! ”

Tianwei is unpredictable, especially Li Ji's personality is even more elusive, and Kong Lin gave Dugu another step down. Who still wants to touch this moldy head, so everyone shook their heads and sighed, not daring to enter the palace again.

The ministers wanted to make a big splash this time, and it was best to cry a few tears in front of the emperor to show that they were loyal. Unexpectedly, the emperor didn't let him celebrate, and everyone walked out of the palace in disgrace.

Li Ji doesn't like red tape, and he doesn't like these Wenchen sycophants. When Wen Chen scolded you, he quoted the classics to point out that Sang scolded Huai, which can make you vomit blood. When they pat you on the back, they will talk endlessly, and they will do their best to be sycophants.

There is a more important point, Li Ji has not seen the queen for more than half a year as an ascetic since he went on the expedition. He thought that the queen was going crazy, and his daughter, Princess Chang'an.

"Ying'er, my Ying'er!" As soon as Li Ji entered the palace, he hurried to the Lizheng Hall and broke in like the wind.

Zhang Wanxi was embroidering, catching up with Mrs. Kong Lin. Mrs. Kong Lin was canonized as a first-class edict, her family background was prominent, and she entered the palace to talk to Zhang Wanxi because she was a drunkard, not in wine.

It turned out that Mrs. Kong Lin wanted to give his grandson, that is, Kong Jie's son and Chang'an princess Li Ziying.

This is the eldest daughter of the emperor and the pearl of the emperor's palm. Of course, Mrs. Kong Lin didn't dare to say it explicitly, but she just knocked on the side, Zhang Wanxi just smiled perfunctory, and didn't dare to agree.

"Daddy!" Li Ziying was already staggering, and she opened her little hands and threw herself into Li Ji's arms excitedly.

Li Ji laughed, lifted his daughter high, and then held her in her arms and kept intimacy.

Zhang Wanxi was startled, then smiled like a flower, and hurriedly knelt down with Mrs. Kong Lin and saluted: "Your Majesty, why did you, why did you come back so soon." No, didn't you celebrate with the ministers? ”

"Your Majesty, peace of mind!" Mrs. Kong Lin spoke, and had no intention of leaving.

Li Ji frowned secretly, why is this old lady here, why don't you stay here.

"Mrs. Kong, I see that Kong Lin has returned home, you hurry back and see, how do I feel that this Kong Lin has a cough, don't be sick."

This is driving people away, Mrs. Kong Lin just smiled: "It's not in the way, my father-in-law is an old problem." I think it's because I've been busy with official business lately, and I'm a little tired. Your Majesty......"

"Okay, okay," Li Ji interrupted her: "Fuquan, Fuquan, you go and send Mrs. Kong."

Mrs. Kong Lin wanted to ask about his grandson's marriage to Princess Chang'an, but Li Ji rushed like this, and didn't dare to say anything more at the moment, so she bowed down and retreated.

Zhang Wanxi was overjoyed: "Your Majesty is hungry, the concubine will go and prepare some wine and food for you."

Li Ji's eyes were green, and he rushed over and hugged Zhang Wanxi: "What are you hungry for, you are promising, take the princess to the back garden to feed the goldfish." You guys, get out of here, I have 100,000 urgent matters to discuss with the queen. Whoever dares to come and be verbose, I will open her ass to flowers! ”

Li Ji, a shameless pervert, really thought that the emperor had something important to discuss. Frightened, he hurriedly saluted and hurried out of the hall.

Youwei scoffed, he knew what Li Ji was thinking dirty. Fortunately, he was a dead eunuch, and he didn't understand this, so he took Li Ziying's hand: "Little princess, let's go, will the slave accompany you to the garden swing to catch butterflies?"

Children like to play, and finally coaxed Princess Chang'an to leave, Li Ji put down Zhang Wanxi, and the monkey hurriedly went to close the door of the Lizheng Palace.

Then Zhang Wanxi screamed from inside: "Your Majesty, what are you doing?"

"I have something important to discuss with you, 100,000 urgent, let's go and walk, top secret, let's go to the quilt and I will tell you again......"

Jishan Palace, the Queen Mother's personal palace maid Ah Qiu stood aside with her hands down.

Empress Dowager He was a little unhappy: "Is the emperor back?"

Ah Qiu just went out to inquire: "They have already returned, and Your Majesty did not meet the ministers who greeted them outside the city, but made a detour to the palace in Xicheng." Lord Kong Lin and the others entered the palace to see His Majesty, but they were also blocked back. ”

"The emperor has made meritorious contributions, so what is there for the courtiers to celebrate. Even if he doesn't want to see the minister, why don't he come to see his mother! ”

No wonder Empress Dowager He was angry, Li Ji had been in the palace for so long to go to the Lizheng Palace, it stands to reason that he should have come to Jishan Palace to ask for peace. Who knew that he married his daughter-in-law and forgot his mother, and he didn't come for so long.

Ah Qiu was a little sneering: "Your Majesty went to the Lizheng Palace, saying that he was looking for the queen to discuss 100,000 urgent matters. Seeing that His Majesty was very anxious, it seemed that for the future of the Tang Dynasty, he drove out all the palace maids in the Lizheng Palace. ”

Empress Dowager He frowned, and then understood Li Ji's dirty behavior. He wanted to find the queen to create a man, and it was not wrong to say that it was for the future of the Tang Dynasty, and he would continue to have an heir.

"It's not promising!" Empress Dowager He took a sip.

The sun has been shining for three days, Dugu and Kong Lin have been waiting in Hanyuan Hall for most of the day, and there is no movement in the early dynasty.

Finally, Fuquan came: "Your Majesty has a decree, stop the court this morning, and the ministers, come back tomorrow."

The ministers exploded, and the emperor's royal expedition back is getting bigger and bigger, and the early dynasty is not on it.

Dugu Yu wanted to argue a few words, but was pulled back by Kong Lin.

At this time, Li Ji was still nesting in the Lizheng Palace, humming and chirping, and didn't get up.

"Your Majesty, it's time to get up, it's time to get up."

"I will sleep for a while, in the foreign soldiers Ge Tiema, I have not slept a peaceful night, I am still comfortable at home, I will sleep for a while."

This sleep slept until the afternoon, and then Li Ji got up and went to Jishan Palace. was scolded by the Empress Dowager He, Li Ji agreed with his left ear in and out of his right ear, and forgot what the Empress Dowager was scolding when he got out of the gate of Jishan Palace.

Finally, on the morning of the second day, Li Ji went early.

The courtiers began, Li Ji blocked his ears, and finally listened to the noise of the ministers, and then it was time to get down to business.

"In this Northern Expedition, I won a great victory. Kong Jie, Zhan Yunpeng, and Xiao Nuoyan also overcame obstacles all the way. Li Maozhen is on the way to the capital, and I want to give an explanation to the Du family. As for Li Cunqiao and Liu Rengong, the two of them have already entered Beijing with their families. Now that they have surrendered, I promised them that I would not treat his family badly. Ladies and gentlemen, do you have anything to say? ”

Cui Yuan stood up: "Your Majesty, Li Maozhen naturally has to be beheaded to thank the world." It's just that this Li Cunqiao and Liu Rengong, the ministers thought that they could not be tolerated, the court gave them a chance, if they surrendered as soon as possible, they would have today. The minister thinks that the two should be sentenced heavily! ”

Jingzhao Yin Peishu was benevolent, he stood up and said, "Your Majesty, the minister thinks it's impossible. After all, these two people surrendered sincerely, and they were willing to hand over the seal of the king of the soldiers, since Your Majesty promised to treat their families preferentially, as for these two people, Your Majesty should also open the net. ”

Most of the ministers supported Pei Shu, and Li Ji also nodded: "Well, I can't be untrustworthy. After all, they are the princes of one side, and if they return to me as soon as possible, they will give them a county king. Now that the situation is going on, I can't afford to be so cheap with them anymore. Passed on the decree, Li Cunqiao and Liu Rengong, the two were disobedient and disloyal, intending to oppose the imperial court. Fortunately, the prodigal son turned back, and I named the two princes, hereditary replacement. ”

The founding marquis is just a fictitious title. But for Li Cunqiao and Liu Rengong, it is a great gift.
