More than ten days later, Li Xuan and Li Jing arrived near Chang'an City, the capital of the Tang Dynasty. The closer he got to Chang'an, the heavier Li Jing's heart became, no matter how Li Xuan said and laughed, Li Jing couldn't laugh.

Late at night, Li Xuan and Li Jing had just ordered the guards to camp, when they heard the guards shouting loudly: "Who is in front?" Stop going, or we'll let go of the arrows. ”

Immediately afterwards, Li Jing's henchman and guard commander Zhang Baoxiang walked quickly in front of Li Jing and said to Li Jing: "Boss, it seems that someone in front of us is blocking our way?" ”

Li Jing and Li Xuan were both surprised.

I heard someone shouting in front of me: "Is it the army guarding Li Jing, the commander of the Northern Expeditionary Army and the general of the Tang Dynasty?" ”

Zhang Baoxiang pulled out his sword with a "tanglang" and shouted: "Who are you?" ”

As a few torches approached, I heard someone shouting, "General, is that you?" ”

Li Jing was stunned for a moment, he couldn't believe his ears, Li Xuan was also stunned, and then exclaimed: "It's Your Majesty, it's Your Majesty's voice." ”

Li Xuan hurriedly greeted him, and the Tang Emperor Li Shimin led the left servant of the Tang Dynasty Shangshu to shoot Fang Xuanling, the eldest Sun Wuji of the Ministry of Officials, and the Ministry of Officials to test the merits of the Ministry of Officials Zhongcen Wenwen came out of the darkness.

As soon as he saw Li Xuan, Li Shimin laughed and said, "King Yong'an? I didn't expect you to be here. Is the Great General in it? ”

Li Jing looked at the Tang Emperor Li Shimin in a daze, he never expected that the Tang Emperor Li Shimin would personally come out so far to greet him. Li Jing suddenly had mixed feelings, knelt on the ground, and said to the Tang Emperor Li Shimin: "Your Majesty, why are you here?" ”

Li Shimin smiled slightly and said: "This black light is blind, the general has returned from the clouds for thousands of miles, and he doesn't need a light to light the way?" ”

Li Jing felt something. blurted out: "Your Majesty, the minister did a wrong thing and came back, he came back to confess, and he needs His Majesty to show him a clear way." ”

Li Shimin said: "General, Deng, I can fight you, but this road requires the general to walk by yourself." Come, don't say anything sinful, it's cold, put this on. ”

said. Tang Emperor Li Shimin took off his cloak and draped it on Li Jing's body.

Li Jing was about to resign, but Li Shimin insisted: "General, listen to me, put it on." You're twenty years older than me, you're this age, so you should be careful about your body and bones. Quick, put on the general, get on my car, my car is spacious and warm. ”

Li Jing hurriedly excused himself and said, "Your Majesty." There is a difference between monarchs and ministers, this, how can this be done? ”

Li Xuan said with a pun on the side: "General, you can share a car with Your Majesty." With His Majesty's car, you can't go the wrong way at any time. ”

Li Shimin smiled, grabbed Li Jing's hand, and walked towards his carriage.

Tang Emperor Li Shimin and Li Jing rode in the same carriage. Li Xuan, the king of Yong'an, the left servant of the Tang Dynasty Shangshu shot Fang Xuanling, Sun Wuji, the eldest of the Ministry of Officials, and the Ministry of Officials, followed by Zhongcen Wenwen, who rode horses.

Li Xuan asked Fang Xuanling: "Fang Xiang, Your Majesty is so late that you personally greet you so far." What does that mean? ”

Fang Xuanling replied: "King Yong'an, isn't this that Your Majesty and the Auxiliary General Li Jing were too jealous of each other in the previous period and had a misunderstanding, Your Majesty wants to use this exceptional grace to make up for the rift in the relationship with the general?" ”

Li Xuan suddenly realized: "Oh, I see. It seems that His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty has forgiven the general, and he still thinks very highly of the general, otherwise His Majesty would not have to come to greet the general in person with such a painstaking process. It seems that the general will have a chance to lead the army in the future. ”

Fang Xuanling asked Li Xuan: "King Yong'an, shouldn't you be a hostage in the camp of the Northern Expeditionary Army in Yunzhong?" How could he appear here with Li Jing? ”

Li Xuan smiled helplessly: "This Li Jing is too cautious, I am afraid that after he arrives in Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, I will make waves in the clouds, and control the 400,000 Northern Expeditionary army he controls in the imperial court, so that he loses the capital that he can rely on to live, no, does he have to ask me to return to Chang'an City, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, with him?" ”

Fang Xuanling, eldest grandson Wuji, and Cen Wenwen also laughed and said: "If we were Li Jing, we would definitely not leave you in the 400,000 Northern Expeditionary Army camp in the clouds, you are extremely resourceful and have many means, maybe, with a lot of tongue and tongue, you will turn the entire Northern Expeditionary Army camp in Yunzhong upside down, and when the time comes, I am afraid that we will be like Li Jing, we want to find a place to cry, but there is nowhere to find it." ”

At dawn on the second day, Li Shimin and his entourage came to Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty.

Wang Fugui, the chief eunuch, hurriedly walked to the Tang Emperor Li Shimin with the dust, and reported to Li Shimin on the carriage: "Your Majesty, the imperial historian Wei Zhengzheng is leading the officials of the imperial history platform to kneel in front of the Taiji Palace and wait for the saint. ”

Li Shimin asked with displeasure on his face, "Why do Wei Zheng and them want to see me?" ”

Wang Fugui looked at Li Jing, who was sitting next to Li Shimin, and stopped talking.

Li Shimin said a little angrily: "Tell me quickly, why do they want to see me Wei Zheng?" ”

Wang Fugui reported to Li Shimin in a low voice: "Lord Wei Zhengwei knows that His Majesty not only did not severely punish the Auxiliary General for lying about the military situation, but also promoted the official position of the Auxiliary General, and let the Auxiliary General do Du Ruhui Du Xiang's original position The right servant of the Tang Dynasty Shangshu and the Shangshu of the Criminal Department, and also personally went to the Tang Dynasty Emperor to meet the Auxiliary General outside Chang'an City overnight, Wei Zheng Wei felt that all His Majesty's actions were against the laws of the Tang Dynasty, so he led the entire Yushitai to advise His Majesty in front of the Taiji Palace and participate in the Auxiliary General. ”

After hearing Wang Fugui's words, Li Jing's old face suddenly turned red and he was ashamed and indignant.

Li Shimin looked at Wang Fugui with a gloomy face, and said to Wang Fugui angrily: "You lead the way in front of your head and drive the Taiji Palace." Wei Zheng, a stubborn old man, he blocked me again. ”

After that, Li Shimin said to Li Jing with a pleasant face: "Don't worry, the general, the general defeated the Turkic Jieli Khan, and he has made great contributions to Sheji." With me here today, I want to see which of them dares to participate in the general? ”

The carriage of the Tang Emperor Li Shimin, the commander of the Tang Northern Expeditionary Army, and the general of the auxiliary state, Li Jing, slowly passed through the long palace corridor, and Li Xuan, the king of Yong'an, the left servant of the Tang Dynasty Shangshu, shot Fang Xuanling, the middle elder Sun Wuji of the Ministry of Wenxuan, and the Zhongcen Wenwen of the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Examination of Gong Shi Lang Zhongcenwen were outside the palace gate, so they got up and dismounted, and followed closely behind Li Shimin's frame on foot.
