Standing at the gate of the city that is ventilated on all sides, it is not good for the father and son to dry a large number of courtiers there, so Li Zhi only slightly praises them. But just like these two sentences, Li Xian felt a fever in his back, and he didn't have to look back to know that he must have become the focus of everyone's attention.

It's easy to wait for the old man to pass in front of him, he suddenly felt an overwhelming sense of oppression in front of him, this time he learned to be obedient, and he hurriedly saluted without raising his head: "Meet the queen mother!" ”

Fortunately, Empress Wu didn't let him experience the taste of saluting in the sand again, so she picked him up: "Okay, you virtuous son, if it weren't for Helan, I wouldn't have known that you would make poems!" In the future, your father and I will celebrate their birthdays, and you don't have to give other gifts, a congratulatory poem every year, saving you from racking your brains to think of new things! ”

A congratulatory poem every year! After Li Xian shuddered, he almost raised his head suddenly, and he was relieved to see the playful expression of the Empress Wu. Just kidding, poetry also has to be appropriate to the situation, unless he has the ability to pack and memorize all Tang poems, then he may be able to barely cope with one or two. He was about to open his mouth to confuse a few words, but unexpectedly, Empress Wu suddenly ignored him.

"The British Duke has been teaching Xian'er for many years, and it has been really hard, this time I sent some Korean ginseng from the north, I have selected three, and I will send it to the Li Mansion when I go back."

His mother is showing favor to Li Ji! Li Xian hurriedly turned around, saw that Li Ji still had the indifferent look just now, and then looked at the smile on the face of the martial queen, and couldn't help but move in his heart. Until the emperor and queen have all passed, he started to keep up, and suddenly felt that his sleeve was being pulled by someone, and when he turned around, it was Li Hong.

"Okay, you sixth brother, you can actually make poems without making a sound!"

Is this Li Hong okay to come to Hanqi to do it? Li Xian's stomach is now in a mess, how can he have time to pay attention to Li Hong's careful thoughts, and he wanted to withdraw after a haha, but who expected that his clothes were still being dragged by someone, and he suddenly used too much force, almost tearing his sleeves. At this moment, he was really angry, glared at Li Hong viciously, and asked angrily, "Fifth brother, what do you want to do?" ”

"I'm kind enough to warn you!" Li Hong saw that no one was paying attention to his two brothers, so he whispered in Li Xian's ear, "After your poem spread, Xu Jingzong sneakily went to see his father and mother that night, and he didn't know what to say. There is also Li Yifu, when the Emperor praised you that day, his expression was not quite right, you have to guard against him. Ahem, if you can bring him down last time, there will be no problem! ”

Li Yifu, it seems that this guy hasn't learned to be obedient yet, and he still thinks that he is a meritorious hero and is indispensable in the court? Anyway, what did Old Man Xu discuss with his father?

Li Xian squinted his eyes and sneered in his heart, and then thanked Li Hong with a smile. Before the two brothers could say a few words, he caught a glimpse of a few old ministers in the East Palace who adhered to etiquette and law coming towards this side with unkind faces, and hurriedly smeared oil on the soles of their feet, hurriedly looked for Li Zhi and Empress Wu, and asked to stay and admire the demeanor of the generals of the Western Expedition. Soon, most of the people entered the city with the imperial driver, and only a few people were left to greet the Western Expeditionary Army, and even Li Ji was not present.

Seeing such a deserted scene, Li Xian couldn't help but sigh. If there were no 100,000 prisoners, and if there was no Western Expeditionary Army burning and looting in Tiele and falling short, then the welcome lineup at this time would have been unprecedentedly strong. The victory has become what it is today, should it be said that those generals were too arrogant at the beginning, or should it be said that Xue Rengui was unlucky?

Seeing three figures flashing out of the city gate, Leng Buding couldn't help but smile slightly. He knew that Li Jingye, Cheng Bohu, and Xue Dingshan were all idle masters, especially Xue Dingshan, it was impossible not to miss the father who was out on the battlefield, no, now they are all here!

"Six...... Your Highness! Seeing that there were outsiders present, although he knew that most people didn't know him, and these people couldn't hear his words, Xue Dingshan still changed his name stiffly. He glanced uneasily at the solemn-faced minister over there, and after a pause, he asked, "When will my father and them arrive?" ”

Before Li Xian could speak, Li Jingye took over the conversation: "The imperial drive has just passed, no matter what, it is impossible for the generals of the Western Expedition to enter the city so quickly." Looking at this posture, your father and they estimated that they were walking slowly all the way, and they waited for a lot of time near Chang'an, specifically waiting for the royal car to pass before entering the city. Don't worry, my grandfather said that even if he is really guilty, it is a small mistake, and it is impossible for the court to punish the triumphant general, doesn't that chill the hearts of the soldiers? ”

Li Xian himself said this once to Li Ji, but now looking at the ministers whose faces were full of frost, he couldn't help but mutter—all of them pulled dead faces, as if they were not greeting the triumphant return of the Western Expeditionary Army, but the generals who disposed of the defeated army. Or is it that martial arts in this world are inherently incompatible? It is said that many of the military departments of the Tang Dynasty are military generals, not all of them are civilian officials, and there is no worship of literature and suppression of military force in these years.

I don't know how long I waited, but the smoke and dust finally rose again in the distance, and this time the speed was much faster, and I saw hundreds of horsemen rushing over like lightning, and then they all turned over and dismounted at a distance of only about a hundred meters from the city gate. The first general looked a little old, although he was burly and tall, but his face was gloomy. There were four or five other generals behind him, one of whom was clearly different from the others.

"That's my daddy!"

Without Xue Dingshan's reminder, Li Xian knew that it was Xue Rengui, although the distance was so far, but he would not ignore the two big bows hanging on the horseback - although there are many generals in the world who are good at shooting, it is rare to wear double bows like Xue Rengui.

The two groups of people quickly met, and Li Xian pondered his identity and stood straight in the shadow of the city gate. In this kind of time when the merits of the Western Expedition are unknown, what can he do when he goes up, and he can't take the place of his father, right? And Xue Dingshan almost couldn't hold back, but fortunately, Li Jingye and Cheng Bohu saw the opportunity quickly, and one by one looked at him to death.

However, the bigwigs of the military department saw Li Xian there just now, although they didn't know what this King Pei was staying for, but after the matter was done, someone inevitably stepped forward to say hello. At this time, the dusty general of the Western Expedition saw Li Xian and others, and the main general Zheng Rentai had served as the general of the Three Guards and had seen Li Xian several times, so he recognized him at once.

"His Royal Highness King Pei!"

The Lord will salute, and the others will inevitably come forward to salute. And when Xue Rengui saw Xue Dingshan beside Li Xian, he almost didn't bare out his eyes. He really didn't understand, how could his son appear here, and still stand beside Pei Wang Li Xian?

Li Xian scolded those troubled officials half to death in his heart, but he had to smile perfunctory on his face, of course, he never mentioned the merits and demerits of the Western Expedition, but just said a lot of beautiful words, one of which was not useful. What made him particularly glad was that Xiao Xue showed amazing self-control at this time, standing behind Cheng Bohu and Li Jingye without saying a word.

PS: I recommend a good book "Emperor Jin", the book number is 176361, readers of the female frequency will not forget the original "Chen Palace", Mu Fei's new work, definitely not inferior to Chen Palace! The layout at the beginning is very atmospheric, which is Mu Fei's consistent style, hehe
