Night, it's almost midnight.

If it weren't for the eldest grandson sitting in front of him, Liu Xu would never drink like this.

They've been drinking for a long time and they're talking a lot.

Sometimes, the eldest grandson will recall the scene of Liu Xu's nonsense when he was a child, which makes people feel comfortable and comfortable, and sometimes, she will move on to others, for example, comment on the current talents of Datang, or poetry, etc., when she asked Liu Xu to come up with another "masterpiece", Liu Xu shook his head. Of course, the seal pen must be sealed thoroughly, and one or two of their own works must be left for the later ones, right? Otherwise, Liu Xu felt that he would be struck by lightning.

Later, she talked about the war in the Western Regions.

When the eldest grandson spoke, except for helping Li Er, everything else was basically comfortable. She likes poetry, and now her alcohol consumption has increased dramatically, and her eyes are getting brighter and brighter the more she drinks like this.

"The people of the court are panicking, they all think that you Liu Xu is finished, our Datang is in crisis, but this palace doesn't believe it, how can the disciples of this palace be defeated so easily? The disciple of this palace is not a fool, he dares to go out of Xizhou, then it proves that he is sure! Your Majesty watches that telescope every day and looks in the northwest direction, what about the main palace, there is no such thing, I just stand like that, I drink, because I think that you will come back victoriously and celebrate with this palace! ”

"Sure enough, you didn't disappoint the palace, you know that your retainers came to worship in front of the Taiji Hall and shouted loudly, we have won. At this time, how proud His Majesty was. And this palace, when he heard the news, this palace, how happy. His Majesty said, you have never failed him, this palace wants to say, you guy, how can you ever make this palace really sad? This palace is half of your mother, how can you be willing to let this palace be disheartened and sad? ”

"Bengong almost wants to run out, just like the play said, I won the champion, I want to beat gongs and drums, walk all over Chang'an City, tell those bastards, tell them, let them open their eyes and take a good look, whether the disciples of this palace, the son-in-law of this palace, are braver than them, better than them, and more capable than them! Li Jing didn't dare to fight, our son-in-law, a big victory! How is this palace not proud, not proud! If it weren't for me being the queen of the Tang Dynasty, I would have rushed to the streets like a madman and told others, look, you look to the west, there, there is a disciple of the palace, and at this moment, he will definitely sit majestically on the war horse, scolding Fang Xuan, talking and laughing, and annihilating the enemy! ”

"So, Liu Xu, I want to celebrate, come, raise a glass, I congratulate you, I congratulate me, I congratulate Datang, I congratulate Tianhe!"

Liu Xu smiled and raised his glass, he didn't know if the eldest grandson was already drunk, but these words, listening to his heart, he was still very comfortable. Everyone wants others to recognize themselves, especially their relatives, if you can bring glory and pride to your relatives, you do such things, it is right.

"Hehe, in fact, you don't know, I couldn't hold back at that time, hundreds of thousands of people eat and drink, in the desert, you find a clean water source, it's very difficult. People, you have to be vigilant all the time, you cook, eat, these times, you don't know whether the Western Regions Alliance on the opposite side will attack or not.

Lu Dongzan saw my reality early on, and surrounded but did not kill, this is their best way, they can completely consume us alive and dead. If it weren't for the sand thieves and the fact that they took away a lot of food, and Ashina Harrier Eagle, as the leader of the sand thieves, didn't stop it, in fact, I wouldn't be able to support it for long. Lu Dongzan doesn't know, I don't know how many of my pack horses starved to death.

At that time, I could only break through, surrounded by twice as many enemies, and it was not a good way to break through, and the gunpowder was almost used by me at the beginning of the battle, but at that time, it was a real sword and gun!

Fortunately, the guy finally couldn't hold his breath, and he hit. At that time, their military morale was also unstable, and several major tribes had their own ideas, and Lu Dongzan even opened the way for Ashina Helu.

That's it, I was confused, and I actually won.

Your Majesty said that I killed hundreds of thousands, comparable to the god of war Bai Qi, that is all a joke, the first gunpowder did kill a lot, and later, people were almost wilted by the sun, where did they still have so much strength. After they left, I slept for almost three days and three nights before I pursued them again. So, Li Jing was so angry that he almost pointed at my nose and scolded. I won the battlefield by luck, but I gave Datang a good and bad start, that is, to pay attention to the advanced weapons. The good thing is that for more advanced weapons, Datang's academy will continue to make progress in research. The bad thing is that in the future, it will be difficult to produce a famous general like Li Jing and them. God knows, thousands of years later, will people in the world be like Li Jing, pointing at my nose and scolding, saying that I lost the things of my ancestors. ”

Liu Xu poured wine violently, but the eldest grandson smiled.

"Where does the battlefield come from luck, the battlefield is also lucky. The time and place are favorable, it stands to reason that fighting in the desert, Lu Dongzan they have taken advantage of the time and place, but unfortunately, they are not in harmony, that is, you have found a way to defeat them, not to mention, Lao Xu, Xue Ping, Hu Guang, who in the world dares to say that you are not far-sighted? Without these three people, who will be replaced, can you Liu Xu do well? So, don't be presumptuous, you are now the god of war of our Tang Dynasty, the entire Western Regions, the entire Liaodong, no matter who it is, will you tremble a few times when you hear your name Liu Xu? That's prestige! So, come, I congratulate you again, Liu Xu, you are worthy of your name! ”

The eldest grandson can always find out what you like to hear, and I don't know if she feels indebted to you and wants to coax you, but Liu Xu is also drunk, and it is strange that his head is not dizzy after drinking so much.

He exhaled hard, suppressed the smell of wine rising from his stomach, and laughed.

"You're right, Liu Xu is Liu Xu, I used to always think, endure for a while, calm down. Take a step back and open the sky. But ah, I later found that when I can't bear it, I don't need to endure it anymore, and when I retreat to the point where I can't go back, I can't retreat anymore. People always need a responsibility and a courage.

Therefore, Your Majesty is the king, I bear it, people in the world, who said that I Liu Xu is not worthy of this title? Your Majesty has put me in charge of the heavy weapons of the military state, and I will also continue, Liu Xu's pure heart, when he is the sun and the moon, why is he afraid of other people's tongues? Big deal, I'll go back to when I was young, be a stunned Liu again, rush to the door of the house, and hit it!

Life must be happy, don't make the gold bottle empty to the moon.

When you can boast, why hide! ”

The eldest grandson also laughed.

"That's it, men should be arrogant, why cower and look ahead. It is better to be proud of the past than to worry about the rest of your life. The rest of his life is unpredictable, the past is already brilliant, in this case, what regrets does the man have? ”

....

In the early morning, the sun has not risen.

Today there is a morning meeting.

In front of the palace gate, the ministers were already waiting.

There were some quarrels because they were discussing current affairs and decisions in the country.

It is also necessary to discuss how to receive and what specifications to receive.

Because, today, there will be four extremely important people coming.

One is Li Tai, the king of Wei, who has put the steam engine on the track, as long as the emperor gives an order, the steam engine can be started immediately, dragging a long cargo box and running on the track.

His speed was not as fast as that of a real horse, but it was about the same, but he dragged much more than a horse. And today, it will be a time to witness miracles.

Another one is Li Ke, the king of Wu.

After so many years of hard work, the bridge over the Yangtze River was finally built by him, and I don't know how much alchemy steel was spent on such a bridge, and I don't know how much cement was poured on it.

But these are not counted, because since then, the Yangtze River is no longer considered a natural hazard, because a bridge has ended this era of natural hazard.

As long as the barrage upstream is blown up, there is also a river channel that closes and diverges. You will be able to stand on the bridge and watch the mighty Yangtze River rush under your feet.

It's a feat, it's a miracle. A miracle during the Zhenguan period. It will go down in history!

And one more.

The first dictionary of the Tang Dynasty was born, all the engraved copies of the yang version, its birth, which means that in the future of the Tang Dynasty, there will be something called Mandarin, which is undoubtedly more exciting for the literati than the previous things, the Zhenguan dictionary, which was compiled by Shangguan Wan'er, is about to come out, and the literati are destined to tremble.

And what they discussed was how to insert their own name into the Zhenguan dictionary, no matter whose name appeared in it, it would be an absolute honor. So, the one they argue the most fiercely is, that's it.

The last one.

After Princess Pingyang Zhao of the Tang Dynasty, during the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty, the first female general appeared, the first female Duhu appeared, the first Wu Princess, Princess Pingnan, is back!

This is Liu Xu's daughter, this is a ruthless character who killed everyone in the South China Sea. She's back, what attitude should these Wenchen have?

Women are heroic, and there are women who are housekeepers, and no talent is virtue.

These two points of view are also fiercely debated.

So, when these four people came to today's court.

Today's court is destined not to be quiet. 、

Suddenly, they heard the sound of horses' hooves. It was the hooves of a war horse.

The sound of horses' hooves is different, more favorable than those of playing horses' hooves, and it is more sonorous when it hits the ground.

The crowd couldn't help but look up, and when they raised their heads, their mouths opened.

Bright light armor, red cloak.

Hanging a long sword.

Walking is also powerful, one step at a time, stepping on the ground, as if stepping on the heart.

When people see it, they will praise it.

What a great general.

"Liu Xu!"

Everyone naturally knows Liu Xu, the king of comfort. But since Liu Xu returned to Beijing, he has been hiding in the house, and he doesn't even go out of the door. The emperor and queen went, but they didn't call him back, today, why did this guy come over?

Everyone thought of Liu Yimo again, and everyone knew it. When the general returns to Beijing, it is not necessarily glory, but even more trouble. In particular, Liu Yimo is still a female general, so the psychology of many people is even more unbalanced. When the time comes, it will inevitably be impeached in the court.

But who is Liu Xu, Liu Xuzi, his short-term personality will make his daughter wronged? Originally, it was enough for someone's daughter to go to the South China Sea to fight, but now you still want to impeach his daughter, speak ill of his daughter, and make his daughter feel wronged. That's good, Liu Xu has to pluck your skin. You must know that although he doesn't have many positions now, no one dares to provoke these titles at will, such as a military secretary, a god general, and an Anyi king.

So, with his current status, where is he willing to let his daughter suffer the slightest grievance?

Therefore, when Liu Xu appeared, everyone figured it out.

Liu Xu looked sideways at the person who called him, fixed himself, then laughed and gave up.

"Zhao Guogong is good, and all the princes are respectful."

The eldest grandson Wuji paused for a moment, because he saw Liu Xu's playful smile, and then came back to his senses, and couldn't help patting his forehead and smiling bitterly.

"Look at my memory, now, but I can't do this, it's time to call you King Yiyi."

Liu Xu smiled heartily.

"It's okay, it's okay, the eldest grandson is polite, Liu Xu is just a trick, he got lucky, and he was spoiled by His Majesty, so he was a prince, it's really a little.... Alas, forget it, it has already happened, and what are you doing with those well-behaved words? What about me, there is still something to do, I need to report to Your Majesty, the princes are busy, Liu Xu, this is going. ”

Still gave it up, and after speaking, he no longer paid attention to everyone, and stepped straight into the palace gate.

Others have no rights, Liu Xu has entered the palace since he was a child, but he is very free.

Many courtiers looked at Liu Xu, who entered the palace with a big grin, and couldn't help but smile, and then smiled bitterly.

The times create heroes, what is the way, the merits earned by people with their lives and money are really envied by their own people.

The eldest grandson Wuji did not smile bitterly, but after Liu Xu entered, he smiled more comfortably.

He knew what position the emperor gave Liu Xu, and he knew that Liu Xu's official had actually come to an end, and in the end, he was still a lonely minister, and with the position held by Liu Xu, he would not deal with anyone at will, let alone form a gang. Therefore, the eldest grandson Wuji smiled very comfortably. What Liu Xu can't do doesn't mean he can't do it. Now is the opportunity for power reshuffle, which families can gain a firm foothold and carry forward in the hands of the next generation of emperors in the future, it depends on their own abilities.

The foreign war on the frontier has basically been fought, and although Datang has paid a huge price, it has also achieved great achievements. After that, the emperor will turn foreign politics into internal governance, and the time for the ministers to be beautiful has come, what a good season.

The eldest grandson Wuji raised his head, and then, the palace door opened. The courtiers entered one by one, and after entering the Taiji Hall, Wu Ming shouted in a sharp voice.

"Surrender to the enemy, the mighty project, only the emperor's hegemony, only the peak of the Tang Dynasty, yes, there is a word in the sage, when the heaven and earth should be sacrificed, and Zen will be sealed!"
