After Li Shimin's victory and return to the court, Li Yuan held a grand welcome ceremony for Li Shimin, in order to express the grandeur, Li Yuan ordered the crown prince Li Jiancheng to lead a hundred officials to meet the Western Expeditionary Army at the West Gate, and saw the Western Expeditionary Army and Li Shimin's Qin King Banner from a distance, and the people of Chang'an cheered:

"It's coming. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info King Qin wins, long live the Tang Army! King Qin wins, long live the Tang army! Li Jiancheng saw Li Shimin under the banner of King Qin, and shouted:

"By the holy order, a hundred officials kneel to greet you!" With Li Jiancheng's order, hundreds of officials knelt on both sides of the road, Dou Yan and Chai Shao's faces showed happy faces, only Li Jing quietly got off the horse, Chai Shao said to Li Shimin:

"King Qin, the Holy Lord asked all the clan officials of Chang'an to come this time to greet the prince with a kneel greeting gift, it seems that the position of the prince is likely to fall to you in the future." Li Shimin's face was as bright as the spring sun, and he was about to ride his horse forward, when the eldest grandson Wuji hurriedly grabbed Li Shimin from behind:

"Your Royal Highness, the hundred officials kneeling to lead the gift is a ritual that can only be used by the Son of Heaven, and it can only be used when the emperor goes out to tour Beijing. Li Shimin listened to the words of the eldest grandson Wuji, quickly got off the horse, knelt on the ground and said reverently:

"The sons and daughters are not virtuous and dare not accept this gift, so I ask my father to withdraw the order and remove this gift." The soldiers behind him also followed Li Shimin to kneel down facing the city wall, his head was buried in the ground, and he didn't raise it, the people on both sides confronted each other like this, no one bothered the other party, and after a while, another Luan driver came out from the west gate of Chang'an, and Li Yuan came out of the Luan car with a smile:

"Don't stand, Shimin, it's done! You've all worked hard, I've specially prepared a full set of luan rides today, all of you come up! "Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin both got on Luan, but in the ears of hundreds of officials and clansmen, Li Shimin's name was in front of Li Jiancheng. Returning to the palace in the inner city of Chang'an, Li Yuan set up a grand welcome banquet for Li Shimin:

"Come on, come on, for the great victory of our army, for the eternal survival of my Datang society, cheers!"

"Cheers!" After Li Yuan drank a glass of wine, he glanced at his personal eunuch Wanyue, and Wanyue understood:

"By Divine Decree! Please ask His Royal Highness the King of Qin to accept the order! As soon as they heard the words of the holy decree, all the ministers present quickly put down the wine glasses and chopsticks in their hands and knelt down.

"Since the ancient country of the society, to protect the military, now I have this famous general, it is really a fortunate thing for my dynasty, now the king of Qin is the general of Tiance, Shaanxi East Road Daxingtai, in charge of the military affairs of our dynasty, and the eldest grandson is not afraid of hardships and dangers, deep into the Turkic enemy camp, special entry for the scattered cavalry, the general of the chariot cavalry. The rest of the generals at all levels have been added to the rank of officer, and all the soldiers have borrowed the last military salary for two months, and they are here! As soon as the officials present heard this holy decree, they all cast envious glances at Li Shimin and the eldest grandson Wuji. Li Yuan motioned for everyone to be quiet:

"Today is a double happiness, my crown prince Li Jiancheng during the Qin king's western expedition, exhausted and diligent. I was busy with the military and politics, and I have not officially established the prince's belonging, and it has been completed! Wait a few days for you to make a list, in addition, I will consider the candidates for the crown prince, the prince, the prince, and the Taibao, I am a little tired now, the ministers don't have to be polite, please have fun! After Li Yuan finished speaking, he walked to the harem under the service of Reference. Under the inspiration of Li Yuan, the atmosphere slowly became cheerful. Especially Li Shimin, it has become the center of the entire banquet, especially the two of Dazongzheng Li Shentong and Li Xiaogong, the king of Zhaojun, who are the most active around Li Shimin.

"Come, come, come! The second prince acted calmly, bravely and strategically, and was really a model for my Li Tang royal family. ”

"Yes! Brother Wang, the younger brother will definitely be the first to look forward to Brother Wang in the future! Please dry this glass. But Li Jiancheng was a little deserted, Li Jiancheng was a little depressed in his heart, and he picked up the wine glass and poured himself a drink:

"Brother Wang! Little brother toasts you! Li Jiancheng looked at it, it was his cousin Li Jin, this person was mediocre in the Li Tang clan, but Li Jiancheng knew in his heart that although he was mediocre in ability, but after he was killed by Li Shimin, only him and Luo Yi, who was later given the surname Li by Li Yuan, stood out for himself.

"Brother Wang is polite, come, let's have a drink!" Seeing Li Shimin at the banquet as if the stars were holding the moon, Li Ying said sourly:

"Brother Wang, I know all about you, please rest assured, what you have done for my Tang Sheji, I have seen it in my eyes, if it weren't for your strategizing, how could he Li Shimin's decisive victory, if it is useful to the younger brother in the future, the younger brother will definitely serve." And what Li Jiancheng had in mind was another thing. He looked at the dragon seat that Li Yuan was sitting on: "Father, you have been suppressing me, and you have not even given me the configuration of my crown prince and third master, but it is your infinite connivance that has made Li Shimin's ambition bigger and bigger, and finally caused the Xuanwumen Change. After the banquet, Li Jiancheng returned to his East Palace, and saw Di Zhixun, Huang Wenqing, Qu Tushou and others gathered in front of the East Palace:

"Congratulations to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"Happy everyone!" Dickinson pinched his beard and said:

"Your Highness, congratulations to Your Highness, who do you think is back?" Li Jiancheng looked at Di Zhixun's hand:

"Mr. Jingzong, you're back."

"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince!" Xu Jingzong called himself by Li Jiancheng's name, and knew that he had entered the ranks of Li Jiancheng's cronies. Their hands were clasped tightly.
