In September, the autumn breeze is as cool as a steel nail through the bones.

Despite repeated persuasion from the courtiers, Li Chengqian insisted on taking a car to the outside of Chang'an City to greet his triumphant return of soldiers, and did not accept the practice of replacing him with the crown prince.

Though his eye sockets were deeply sunken in his sockets, though he almost had to be supported by someone when he got out of the car, though his hand on crutches kept trembling, as long as he stood there, no matter what his back bent into, he was the emperor of the world, unique.

He looked a little haggard than before, which made Qin Hao sigh silently, and his eyes seemed to be a little moist from hunger, no matter what, he still had feelings for Li Chengqian.

Slowly, Pei Xingjian's figure sitting on a tall horse walked over, followed by several carts and more than a thousand knights, the cart should be the most valuable harvest of this trophy, and the knight should be a carefully selected meritorious person or handsome guy, in addition to Li Chengqian, including Qin Hao and the eldest grandson Wuji, the Manchu Dynasty civil and military officers all bowed to him, which was his glory.

Turning over and dismounting, Pei Xingjian said in a loud voice: "Minister, Pei Xingjian, live up to the mission, my Tang Tianwei has shocked the extreme west, please review it by the sage." ”

The soldiers behind Pei Xingjian also shouted in unison: "Please review the sage." ”

Li Shimin hadn't died when Pei Xingjian left, so he naturally didn't know that Li Chengqian was already very sick, and he didn't pay attention to Li Chengqian's face when he was emotional, so these two sentences were said very loudly, which shocked Li Chengqian's brain a little bit.

Taking a deep breath, Li Chengqian seemed to exert all his strength and shouted, "My soldiers! You've done a great job! I will be rewarded for meritorious service, and I will never be stingy with official positions and property, and I will follow me first, and drink and feast in the Lin De Palace! ”

In just two sentences, after shouting, Li Chengqian seemed to be a little confused, and it took him a long time to stand firm, help Pei Xingjian up, and open his mouth, but he seemed to be a little speechless, Pei Xingjian looked at Li Chengqian with a confused face, and the atmosphere was very embarrassing for a while.

Li Chengqian staggered around, it seemed difficult to walk back, Zhang Chun hurriedly took three or two steps to support him, "Everyone? ”

Li Chengqian said in a weak mosquito voice: "My legs... I can't move my left leg. ”

Zhang Chun was startled, hurriedly ran to Li Chengqian's left side, supported Li Chengqian with his body, and slowly walked to the carriage.

This scene, everyone naturally saw it, especially Qin Hao and Eldest Sun Wuji, because they stood at the front, they could see it clearly, they looked at each other, and they felt a little uncomfortable for a while.

First vision deteriorated, then half of the body was paralyzed, and finally the whole body was paralyzed, Li Shimin and Li Yuan both walked like this, it seems that 。。。。。

Qin Hao turned his head, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with his sleeve, and knew that this great gift could not be carried out, so he stood up and drank: "Get up and drive the Linde Palace, and congratulate the victorious soldiers!" ”

Then the great army got down the donkeys and went back.

Pei Xingjian was confused, turned his head and looked at each other with the soldiers, this... That's it? He hasn't given the spoils yet! How come the most glorious moment of this life is over before it even begins?

Qin Hao walked over and said, "Don't be stunned, take the things, and then offer them when you get to the Lin De Palace, the saint he... Qin Hao didn't finish speaking, but secretly compared Pei Xingjian with a lip sync: wind disease. ”

Pei Xingjian reacted immediately, and then his eyes rolled, and he immediately grasped the key point, and asked Qin Hao in a low voice: "If the saint's body is unexpected... What does the big brother want? ”

Qin Hao said: "Don't do anything, I don't need you to mix in what I do, I have already prepared the holy decree, in the future, you will be the deputy capital protector of the Extreme Western Protectorate, the emperor of the mountain is far away, take root there, you manage the Americas better, it will be the greatest help to me." ”

Pei Xingjian nodded, indicating that he understood.

After a while, when he went to the Lin De Palace, Li Chengqian was still sitting on it with a crown, which made Qin Hao quite surprised, and secretly said, have he and the eldest grandson Wuji been a little too persecuted to that Zhang Chun recently? This is a fight for the body, no matter what, you have to finish this cutscene?

Then, Pei Xingjian finally took his loot one by one in the Lin De Palace.

For example, gold and silver, he brought back more than a dozen ships this time, all of which were slowly subcontracted to Chang'an in Luoyang, so he only brought a piece of dog's head gold more than half a person's size, which was given to Li Chengqian as an auspicious treasure, and then sent to the treasure house.

The rest were all plant seeds, although Qin Hao's eyes were fixed on chili peppers and tobacco, but it was obvious that other people were more interested in corn and sweet potatoes, and when they heard that the yield per mu of this thing was more than several times that of wheat, they were all so happy that they couldn't find the north.

Li Chengqian was naturally excited when he saw this, and stood up tremblingly, he was able to speak, and he actually held a bowl of wine in his hand: "General Pei, all the soldiers, I will give you a bowl." ”

Zhang Chundu was about to cry, wiping his tears and said, "Everyone, you have to take care of the dragon body."

Qin Hao also said: "Your Majesty's body is not suitable for drinking, so don't drink it." ”

The eldest grandson Wuji also lowered his face and persuaded: "Your Majesty, no." ”

Li Chengqian laughed and said: "It's okay, my body is only occasionally sick, it's not a big deal, just this cup, General Pei, all the soldiers, drink it full." ”

As he spoke, Li Chengqian drank all the wine.

After drinking, Li Chengqian's face turned red, as if nothing had happened, and he didn't even leave the banquet in advance, and he insisted until the end of the banquet, and then returned to the North Palace with the support of the eunuchs.

You must know that the soldiers behind Pei Xingjian are all big and coarse, and this time in this life may be the opportunity to drink in a place like Lin De Palace, so in order to take care of them, the standard etiquette and duration of the banquet are not a lot at all, nine waves of vegetables and nine waves of dance, and it took two hours to go back to their respective homes.

Qin Hao was a little worried about Li Chengqian's body, and wanted to care about it, but was taken away by Li Chengqian, saying that Pei Xingjian hadn't come back for more than two years, so take him close and close.

Xiao Yun has been living in their house for the past two years, and if he doesn't bring people home, his sister can tear down the house.

After making sure again and again, Li Chengqian seemed to be really fine, Qin Hao took Pei Xingjian home, and listened to him tell him the adventure stories on the road and the customs of the Americas along the way, as for how he and Xiao Yun were separated for a long time after returning home, that was another matter.

On the other side, Li Chengqian returned to the Zichen Hall with the support of the eunuchs, lay down gently, and fell asleep, until the next day when Zhang Chun came to serve again, he found that Li Chengqian's eyes were staring at the pattern on the top of the bed, but he couldn't get up.

"Everyone?"

Li Chengqian's mouth was a little slanted, and there was still a little saliva, but he could barely hear it clearly, but he smiled bitterly, "Invite the prince, Zhenheng, and uncle." ”
