Chapter 755 is called Xiangmen Lower Province

The eldest grandson Wuji saw that Wang Ping'an was stunned, and quickly explained: "It's not to toss you, but the emperor will personally greet you tomorrow, you are the great hero who defeated Goguryeo to surrender, and the emperor has just ascended the throne, and you have returned triumphantly, this is the first major event of the new dynasty, so the emperor has to personally greet you, and he has to welcome thirty miles, which is the highest specification, but you are now camped twenty miles away from the city, how can the emperor welcome you!" ”

Only then did Wang Ping'an understand that Li Zhi was going to personally welcome him out of Chang'an tomorrow. The emperor greeted thirty miles, then he had to be at least seventy miles away from the city!

The emperor walked thirty miles, then he would have to walk at least thirty miles tomorrow, but as a courtier, he had to walk more than the emperor, but he couldn't let the emperor wait for him, so above thirty miles, he had to add another ten miles, so forty miles back was just right!

Wang Ping'an said: "The emperor actually wants to greet him in person, this ...... It's really not good, how can the little minister dare to bother the emperor......"

The eldest grandson Wuji waved his hand and said, "Okay, don't talk nonsense, it's dawn when you talk nonsense." After retreating, you have to let the soldiers and generals take a rest, and tomorrow they can be spiritually sainted, otherwise the soldiers and generals are full of fatigue, what kind of system is that? Let's set up camp here, and if you have anything to say, let's talk about it on the road. ”

Wang Ping'an hurriedly agreed, passed the order to go, and asked the soldiers to quickly pack up and follow him back. The generals who followed him back to Beijing to show off their martial arts this time were all carefully selected, and they belonged to the people who did whatever the commander asked them to do. Although Wang Ping'an's order tossed people, no soldiers complained, and immediately pulled out the camp and returned by road.

On the way, the eldest grandson Wuji called Wang Ping'an aside, and the two got along alone. The eldest grandson Wuji said: "No disease, do you remember what the old man promised you when he sent you to Baekje?" ”

Wang Ping'an sighed and said, "Uncle, are you talking about an errand in the province?" "In private, he called his eldest grandson Wuji his uncle, and he counted the seniority from Li Yiren.

The eldest grandson Wuji hummed and said, "Exactly." This has been done. After meeting with the emperor tomorrow, the emperor will appoint you as a provincial servant in front of the Manchu Dynasty and the people of Chang'an. ”

"How can a nephew want to be a servant, that's the prime minister, and the nephew doesn't have this ability!" Wang Ping'an hurriedly rehearsed and excused himself first.

The eldest grandson Wuji laughed twice and said, "Our own family, you don't have to play false." The three provinces of the imperial court, Shangshu Province is in charge of the old man, and Zhongshu Province is managed by Ma Zhou, Ma Zhou is not bad, although he usually has ideas, but as the prime minister, how can he be a person who has no ideas, he and the old man are quite cooperative. Only the subordinates are left in the province, and the waiter can't be a man, and he always disagrees with the old man. In the past, when the first emperor was there, the old man could only endure him, but now that the new monarch has ascended the throne, why do you still keep that old immortal, isn't it too much of an eyesore! ”

Wang Ping'an thought to himself: "That squire seems to be a few years younger than you, if he is called an old immortal, then what has become of you?" He said: "Then, what did he do with the former Xiangye, to be his nephew's deputy?" ”

The eldest grandson Wuji snorted and said, "What kind of deputy, if you don't die if you fight a snake, won't you have to suffer from it!" The old man found him a fault, and asked several ministers to jointly join him, saying that he was old and incompetent, and he was mediocre, and sent him home to care for the elderly. ”

Wang Ping'an thought to himself: "After that, the Tang Dynasty will become your hall!" ”

The eldest grandson Wuji said again: "After being a servant in the province of Menxia, you still have a lot to learn, don't be shy, of course, you don't look like a shy person, as long as there is something that you can't decide, just ask the old man, and the old man will be the master of everything, understand?" ”

Wang Ping'an hurriedly said: "I understand, I understand, of course my nephew understands." In fact, the nephew is just a name, and the idea of the province has to be taken by the uncle. It's just that in the future, my uncle will have to work a lot. ”

The eldest grandson Wuji smiled: "The old man is never afraid of being tired, he is afraid of being idle!" ”

Wang Ping'an looked at the smile of the eldest grandson Wuji, and sighed in his heart, this uncle really didn't say anything to himself, although he wanted to firmly grasp the government in his hands through himself, and he was selfish. But is there no one in the bottom of the earth? This kind of person should have, but it's a pity that I've never met it. Then it doesn't matter if the eldest grandson Wuji is selfish, at least he is promoting himself.

But then again, what about Wu Meiniang, who is now a nun? Datang can not have the eldest grandson Wuji, but without Wu Meiniang, it is absolutely impossible, without Wu Meiniang, there will be no future emperors of the Tang Dynasty, and Wu Meiniang is obviously far more than the eldest grandson Wuji in the administrative method. If they fight in the future, who should they help? What a headache!

After the eldest grandson Wuji and Wang Ping'an finished whispering, the other ministers came up and asked Wang Ping'an to ask him about the things in Goguryeo. There is no way, some things can only be said by Wang Ping'an, now the Chang'an gossip is flying all over the sky, and I can't figure out which version is true and which version is false, except for Wang Ping'an, no one knows the truth anymore!

However, Wang Ping'an naturally won't say it to so many people, it's too embarrassing, even if you find the wrong door, but you can find the wrong country, no matter who you say it, how you say it, it's a big joke, and there are historians among the ministers, in case he is given a note, then he won't be mixed up in the future, and don't change his name to Wang Donkey, add another word, call Wang Duan Donkey!

Wang Ping'an just said that when he was at sea, he caught some Baekje people, and learned that Baekje had been prepared, but Goguryeo was not prepared, so he temporarily changed his plan and attacked Goguryeo, although it was a risky move, but who made him loyal to the country, if there is danger, there is no danger, first create danger, and then go up. Fortunately, risks and benefits coexisted, and he finally surrendered Goguryeo, and accepted the king as his godson, which caused the Goguryeo civil war to continue, laying the foundation for the Tang Dynasty to destroy Goguryeo!

Not all the ministers believed his words, they all saw it, just now Changsun Wuji called Wang Ping'an aside to whisper, maybe these were what Changsun Wuji taught him. But even if you don't believe it, but such a high-sounding reason is taught by the eldest grandson Wuji, who is full of food to expose it? The sedan chair carries people, hello, I'm good, everyone is okay, at most you don't squeak!

Seeing that the ministers were noncommittal, Wang Ping'an hurriedly hinted that he had gained a lot from this expedition, and that all the adults were heroes in strategizing in the DPRK and winning thousands of miles away, and he himself was stained with the light of the adults, and he made a small contribution. Therefore, he specially prepared gifts to show his gratitude, and everyone has a share, and no one is disappointed.

This is called being a man, and having merit to take it alone is so annoying! This time, you swallowed all the credit alone, and after eating the meat, you didn't say that you would leave a soup for others to drink, this time it's like this, no one can do anything, what can you do? You're in the middle of the court? Be careful that everyone will get down in the future, we won't be able to drink the soup, and you won't be able to eat the meat!

After hinting, the ministers immediately smiled and praised Wang Ping'an, and Wang Ping'an's name was immediately successfully upgraded, from the boy who picked up cheap to become a famous general of the Tang Dynasty. Fighting Goguryeo is such a thing, except for your prince, no one else can do it!

With the sound of whiskers and horses, the army drove out forty miles, and by this time it was already past midnight, and there was not enough time. Wang Ping'an did not let the soldiers and generals set up camp, so they stayed in the field, and he told the emperor that the emperor would personally greet him tomorrow, and the soldiers and generals were overjoyed, and not only did not complain about the camping in the field, but strongly supported it, just as if they did not suffer so much, they could not show their admiration for the emperor.

The whole night was full of things, the ministers pulled Wang Ping'an to talk, and did not let him rest, Wang Ping'an had no choice but to stay up, talk with the ministers, and satisfy their curiosity.

The next morning, Wang Ping'an ordered the soldiers to eat more, I am afraid that I can only eat this meal during the day today, and there is a lot of physical work to do, and it is not certain when to eat at night!

After eating, the army set off and rushed to Chang'an City again!

Today's rush is completely different from yesterday, yesterday was just the people cheering along the official road, but today it is a sea of people, near Gyeonggi, even the people of other states and counties have come, the official road is full of people, looking along the official road, you can't see the end at a glance!

Wang Ping'an rode on a white dragon horse, personally holding a large banner captured from Goguryeo, followed by ministers, and then 2,000 soldiers. Amidst the cheers, he traveled forty miles.

From afar, I saw that under the umbrella of Huang Luo, among tens of millions of subjects, Li Zhi was sitting on a horse, his whole body was draped, waiting in front, waiting for Wang Ping'an!

From the moment he could see the emperor, Wang Ping'an immediately dismounted, raised the flag with both hands, and shouted loudly: "I am the king of the Tang Dynasty, mighty!" ”

The generals behind shouted in unison: "Mighty! ”

The people along the way also shouted, and the mighty sound shook the heavens and the earth. On the road to Beijing, I am afraid that there are not 300,000 people gathered now, but more than 200,000, and there are people all over the mountains.

Li Zhi saw Wang Ping'an and thought, "It's great that I'm finally back!" It's just that...... Alas, why did he get off the horse so early, this is almost a mile away, he walked over with a big flag, he was not tired! ”

With a clamp on the crotch, Li Zhi stepped forward and shouted: "Wang Ping'an, is Goguryeo safe?" ”

In the majestic sound of the earth-shattering price, Wang Ping'an was far away, how could he hear the emperor's words. But the people shouted after the emperor: "Wang Ping'an, is Goguryeo safe?" ”

Wang Ping'an held a big banner in his hand, this big flag is not light, he regretted it in his heart, he knew that he would raise a lighter pole in this way, such a heavy flag was held in his hand, his arms were sore, and there was a tendency to tremble!

He shouted: "Goguryeo Da'an, up to the dung king, down to the people of Limin, all surrender to my Tang Dynasty!" "Although I accepted the treasure king as my godson, but at this time I was in Yaowu, what godson is not my son, and I can't take care of it, I should let him be dung, and I have to let him be it!

The people shouted again, repeated Wang Ping'an's words, and passed them on to the emperor!

Li Zhi galloped on his horse, his yellow cloak unfolded in the wind, and he had the momentum of an emperor on a horse, and he shouted: "I am the king of the Tang Dynasty, mighty!" ”

The people looked at the emperor's demeanor, and they all cheered, and everyone shouted: "Long live the emperor, long live, long live!" ”

In less than a mile, the horse arrived, Li Zhi rushed to the front, and shouted loudly to Wang Ping'an: "Wang Shizhong, you have worked hard!" ”

Wang Ping'an knelt in the middle of the road, raised the big flag with both hands, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, this is the military flag of Goguryeo, and the minister presents it to the emperor!" ”

Li Zhi smiled all over his face and shouted in a louder voice: "Good! "Bow down, take the flag, but as soon as he takes it, he grinned, good guy, this flag is heavy enough, it is more than 20 pounds. What kind of flag is this, why is it so heavy!

Wang Ping'an was close to him, and when he saw the emperor grinning, he knew that he was afraid of this flag, and he was struggling to carry this big flag, not to mention the emperor, don't tremble halfway, and throw the flag on the ground again, it would be a joke!

As a confidant minister, he naturally has to think about the emperor. Wang Ping'an shouted: "Your Majesty, the country of Goguryeo dung, my Tang Dynasty conquered it, is to avenge the son of the Central Plains, but the hateful things of Goguryeo cannot be forgiven, and I hope that the emperor will step on this banner and show evil anger for my atomic brother, obey the will of heaven, and respond to the will of the people!" ”

Li Zhi thought to himself: "I'm so sick, in your words, you are really enough to be a buddy, even I am disgusted, you can see it!" He threw the banner to the ground and trampled on it!

The emperor's horse stepped on the battle flag of the enemy country, so majestic, how could the people not cheer greatly, and the voice of long live once again rang out!

Li Zhi stretched out his hand and said to Wang Ping'an: "Wang Shizhong, you and I will ride together and go back to the city together!" ”

Riding with the emperor, Wang Ping'an was so happy that he almost fainted. When Li Shimin was alive, in order to show his trust in the minister, he often asked the minister to share a car with him, but he didn't expect Li Zhi to go further and want to ride with him!

Wang Ping'an stretched out his hand, but said, "This, this, this is not appropriate!" He took Li Zhi's hand, turned over on the horse, and sat behind Li Zhi.

Li Zhi smiled: "What's wrong, I said it's right, then everything is right!" "I patted the royal horse, followed the avenue, and galloped towards Chengtianmen!

Seeing this, the eldest grandson Wuji felt a little sour in his heart, but even if Wang Ping'an was favored, he was always his own person, and he couldn't say anything else at this time, so he could only follow the emperor's wishes. He secretly said in his heart: "This Wang Ping'an, I'm really dizzy, didn't I ask him to excuse everything first, he just talked about it, but his ass was honest and unkind, and he really got on the horse!" ”

Helpless, the eldest grandson Wuji shouted: "There are great contributions to the country in the king's servants, and they deserve to be courteous by the emperor, long live the emperor!" ”

The ministers had no choice but to shout, but everyone thought in their hearts: "The prince has become a king's servant, and this Wang Ping'an has finally reached the top of the courtiers!" ”

The supreme governor of Menxia Province did not call Menxia to give orders, but to Shizhong, who was one of the prime ministers. Wang Ping'an became a servant, which means that he has become one of the decision-makers of state affairs in the Tang Dynasty.

Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, those who are less than 20 years old are the prime ministers, only Wang Ping'an is the only one, and the non-hereditary and the prime minister, although it is not unprecedented, but there is no one who will come after!
