Luoyang City did not suffer much loss, more losses are the dignitaries in Luoyang City, although Shan Xiongxin ordered his soldiers to create a fake fire scene, deceived Wang Shichong, but the other soldiers did not know, and thought that Luoyang City had been breached, and began to attack the mansions of the dignitaries in twos and threes, some of the families in Luoyang City suffered a big loss this time, and when Li Jing led the army into the city, the chaos was stopped, and the Guanzhong soldiers began to inspect Luoyang City, and waited until the next morning. Luoyang City is beginning to regain its calm.

"Luoyang City, the thousand-year-old capital, has fallen into our hands like this." Li Xin looked at the main hall in front of him, this is Ziwei Palace, the Qianyang Palace in front of him, the place where Yang Guang dealt with military affairs here back then, it was extremely luxurious, even Li Xin shook his head when he saw it.

"Sin will Shan Xiongxin visit the prime minister." In the main hall, Li Xin sat on the throne, Shan Xiongxin and Wang Chuchu were brought in, and the rest were important generals under Wang Shichong such as Yun Dingxing and Duan Da, Wenchen and so on.

"General Shan, please get up." Li Xin nodded and said: "The general can be in the heart of heaven, not persecuted by Wang Shichong, and has meritorious service in guarding Luoyang. ”

"Prime Minister Xie is gracious, but the last general is unwilling to be an official." Shan Xiongxin thanked Li Xin first, and then bowed down and said: "The sin general is Wang Shichong's son-in-law, but in the end he betrayed his father-in-law, what is the face of the official, the sin will want to return to the mountains and forests, please fulfill the prime minister." ”

"I said Second Brother Shan, you are not sick in the brain!" After Cheng Yanjin heard this, he walked out suddenly, looked at Shan Xiongxin and said, "The prime minister has already named you a marquis, what else do you want?" No matter how many people in this army want to be crowned, they can't get it, just because you saved the people of Luoyang City and become a marquis, you are not satisfied. If you want to retreat to the mountains and forests, how old are you! "Cheng Yanjin and Shan Xiongxin are very familiar, this guy has always been willing to be a marquis, although he is also a marquis now, but Shan Xiongxin does not have much military exploits, so he was named a marquis because he saved the people of Luoyang. Cheng Yanjin said that he was very happy in his heart, but when he heard that Shan Xiongxin wanted to return to the mountains and forests, he was immediately a little dissatisfied.

"Zhijie, Shan Xiongxin himself is not a man with great ambitions, and it is already a great blessing to have Chu Chu, how dare he let the prime minister be canonized as a marquis?" Shan Xiongxin's face was calm, and he bowed to Li Xin: "The last general is willing to be a grass people from now on, and he doesn't want to take care of the affairs of the world anymore, and he also asks the prime minister to fulfill it." ”

"Prime Minister. Since General Shan has made up his mind, why can't the prime minister fulfill him? Li Jing said.

"That's it! It seems that he is lonely and poor, and he cannot be assisted by the general. Li Xin's face was not good-looking, he glanced at Wang Chuchu beside Shan Xiongxin, and probably understood the thoughts in Shan Xiongxin's confidence, and he didn't force it, and said: "In this case, this king will give a thousand taels of gold." Qian 50,000 and generals, 50 Shu brocade. Please also ask the general not to refuse. ”

"The grass people thank the prime minister for rewarding." Shan Xiongxin hurriedly thanked him, he also felt a slight pity in his heart, from this reward, he could see that Li Xin really appreciated himself, and he did not use the word "reward" in his speech. Instead, he used the word "gift" and took care of himself, but unfortunately, although Wang Shichong was not killed by himself, he also died because of himself. But he and Wang Chuchu couldn't pass this hurdle. Not being able to serve the Lord is probably also a great sorrow in life!

"Zhijie, send the general and his wife on behalf of the orphan." Li Xin nodded and said to Cheng Yanjin on the side. Since he wants to look like a corporal of Lixian, he simply did it enough and let Cheng bite the gold and send it off.

"Yes." Cheng Yanjin was also very happy, stepped forward and patted Shan Xiongxin's shoulder, shook his head slightly, and led Shan Xiongxin and his wife out of Qianyang Palace.

"It's a pity that a fierce general is not used by lonely." Li Xin looked at Shan Xiongxin's departing back and said with a slight sigh. No matter how Shan Xiongxin betrayed Zhai Rang at the beginning, after Li Mi's defeat in the army, he surrendered to Wang Shichong, but he was able to risk being killed and stop Wang Shichong's plan to burn Luoyang, Li Xin is still very grateful to this person. Otherwise, even if he gets Luoyang, I'm afraid it will be a broken Luoyang.

"Shan Xiongxin is a little bloody, but this person's mind is no longer on making meritorious contributions, even if it is used by the prime minister, I am afraid it will not be of much use." Wang Junkuo said with slight disdain.

"Yes." Li Xin snorted coldly and glanced at Shen Qianqiu in the dark, Shen Qianqiu nodded hurriedly and quietly retreated. Li Jing saw it clearly, sighed slightly, sat there quietly, and stopped talking.

No matter what Shan Xiongxin said was out of the blue, but Li Xin was not at ease, this person was also a character, and his martial arts were not inferior to Cheng Jin and others, if he really returned to the mountains and forests, it would naturally be forgotten, if not, then Li Xin's enemy would be the enemy, and keeping this person was also a scourge, Li Jing also understood this truth. During this time, Li Jing attacked Luoyang, the situation of the entire Luoyang City, Li Jing knew it clearly, if it weren't for Shan Xiongxin, Wang Shichong would definitely not be able to support it for such a long time, I am afraid that the army's morale has already been weakened, Li Jing would have been able to drive straight in, where would it be Wang Shichong's turn to escape?

"Since Luoyang has been down, then the next place is Hedong, Hedong Su Dingfang fought very hard, 50,000 troops, until now there are only 20,000 people left, for Hedong, we have lost 30,000 people, it can be said that we occupy Henan, it is in exchange for the blood of these 30,000 people, so this time, we must leave the Turks behind, stay in Hedong." Li Xin glanced around at everyone and said, "The general is sitting in Luoyang, and he personally leads 30,000 people to meet the Turks for a while. On the day of the triumph of loneliness, drink with the crowd. ”

"Yes." Everyone's faces suddenly showed joy, Li Xin's words illustrate a problem, solve the matter of Hedong, Li Xin is afraid that he will ascend the throne and become the emperor At that time, it is the time to reward everyone, how can everyone not like it in their hearts? Even Li Jing also showed a trace of excitement in his heart, following Li Xin until now, when he finally became famous, Li Jing himself was already old, isn't what he is waiting for today?

On the second day, Li Jing and Wang Junkuo sent Li Xin to lead 30,000 troops from Mengjin to Luoyang, and Pei Renji dispatched a sailor to escort Li Xin to Hedong to participate in the last battle between Guanzhong and the Turks.

The battle of Hedong also came to the last moment, although the city of Hedong was strong, but the number of Turks was very large, plus behind it was Li Zhao, Li Zhao let the two armies lose both, but the food and bows and arrows of the Turks were never cut off, and Li Yuanji even promised that as long as the Turks captured Hedong, let the Turks loot in Hedong, and then send the Turks out of Dazhao. The helpless Qibi He Li and Ashina Simo had no choice but to use all their means to storm Hedong City.

"The prime minister has finally recovered Luoyang." In Pei Shiju's mansion, Pei Shiju had a smile on his face.

"That means the prime minister can ascend the throne." Wei Yuancheng said in a low voice: "Master Pei, is there something that can be moved?" "Since ancient times, the creation of a new dynasty and the enthronement of the emperor have all been visions of heaven, of course, this kind of vision is mostly artificially created, where is what heaven and earth are generated, whether it is Pei Shiju or Wei Yuan Chengdu knows clearly, so there will be two people getting together.

Of course, the two of them getting together is not just for Li Xin's accession to the throne, Li Xin's accession to the throne is already a sure thing, and no one can oppose it, even if it is the son of Yining, the two are concerned about the changes in the court after Li Xin ascends the throne, or simply who is the candidate for the crown prince after Li Xin ascends the throne.

"The prime minister is young and strong, I'm afraid some people can't wait to set up the foundation of the country." Wei Yuancheng said in a low voice. The situation in the DPRK and China, Wei Yuancheng naturally knows, Li Xin is against the family, don't look at the fact that he has given many benefits to the family now, but it is only to win over the family in terms of money, but in politics, in terms of power, the family is at a loss, Pei Shiju and Wei Yuancheng are also very clear about Li Xin's idea, but it is not easy to say it, in the final analysis, Li Xin still holds the power, and no one dares to oppose it. But after Li Xin, is the imperial power really that supreme? At that time, the emperor probably also needed to compromise with the family! It would be even better if the future emperor could have some relationship with his own family. Some things are easier to implement. This is also the idea between the big families.

"Now among the princes, who can inherit the mantle of prime minister? Isn't it too early? Pei Shiju said in a low voice, the corners of his mouth still showed a hint of disdain, those guys thought it was really too early, what kind of character is Li Xin, how could he let the family decide the future prince candidate, that is, Wei Yuancheng in front of him.

"Yes, what the old man said is very early." Wei Yuancheng nodded again and again, he was afraid of which prince Pei Shiju would support, then the overall situation of the DPRK and China had already been decided, Pei Shiju opened his mouth to speak, presumably Li Xin would also consider it seriously, and now Pei Shiju also thinks that there is no need to establish a prince for the time being, then things will be much easier.

"It's just that the prime minister is fighting outside all the year round, even if he ascends the throne and becomes the emperor, but now the world is not calm, and the prime minister will probably continue to fight outside in the future. Pei Shiju shook his head and said, this model has basically been decided. Even now, it is still Li Chengzong, the king of Hanzhong, who is handling state affairs as a prisoner. Of course, this prison country is just a matter of face, just a matter of appearance. But don't underestimate this kind of goods, if something really happens to Li Xin, Li Chengzong will be the first heir and inherit Li Xin's career.

"So what? It's still early! Wei Yuancheng said indifferently: "What will the future look like, can the boss know?" (To be continued......)
