Volume 1 The Storm Rises Chapter 156 Angry Scolding

Although Li Chengqian didn't get a satisfactory answer, he was happy to look at the Wenchen behind him who had shut up.

Li Shimin motioned for Li Chengqian to continue, and did not summon Tang Xin as Li Chengqian said, Li Chengqian had to continue: "After we determined that the defenders of Jingzhou City were likely to be unable to contain the Turkic attack, Chengxin and Cheng Chumo took the 1,000 soldiers of the East Palace to the high mountains outside Jingzhou City and found a suitable position to ambush the Turks, but there were no boulders on the mountains on both sides of Jingzhou City, so they did not cause great damage to the Turks. ”

Speaking of this, Li Tao also nodded and said: "The old minister over there in Jingzhou City has been there a few times, although it occupies the mountain and is easy to defend and difficult to attack, but there are no big stones on both sides of the mountain, they are all loess and the like. ”

Li Chengqian nodded to Li Tao and continued: "Fortunately, the first batch of Turks who came was only the vanguard, but even the vanguard made Jingzhou City almost lost, and in the end, it was Xu Dong who recruited that strange wasp to solve this first war." ”

Li Shimin nodded and glanced at the old eunuch beside him, and the old eunuch immediately spoke: "Pass Xu Dong!" ”

Xu Dong, who was dressed in cloth, walked in tremblingly, and then knelt down obediently and said, "Xu Dong, a grass man, has seen the emperor!" ”

Li Shimin immediately said: "Aiqing, please get up, Aiqing is an official of the Zhengjiupin Hanlin Academy, and there is no need to pretend to be a grass people!" ”

Xu Dong thought it was Li Chengqian's kind words for him, and glanced at Li Chengqian with some gratitude, and then Xu Dong heard Li Shimin's question, "The prince just said that there is a magical wasp to help, but this matter is true, what is the wasp!" ”

Xu Dong heard Li Shimin's question and replied obediently: "The wasp is called the killer bee, it is a strange beast in ancient times, generally lives in a deserted place, before when we were looking for relatives with the heart of the captain, we happened to encounter a nest of killer bees, at that time we just took some of the green bees that the killer bees loved and left, I didn't expect these killer bees to find out that someone had come to their territory and then they were furious, I thought they were found by the smell of the green bees, but at that time I had already made the green bees into juice, So I threw the juice into the ranks of the Turks, and these royal bees flew over, and the Turks had never seen such creatures, so they shot down a few with bows and arrows, but I didn't expect these royal bees to blow themselves up and kill the Turks! ”

Xu Dong said word by word, without a single lie, but he still concealed Xie Ziwen's part according to his heart.

The ministers of the DPRK and China were even more surprised, they had heard about this strange bee after receiving superstition before, and they felt even more unbelievable after hearing the words of people who had experienced the incident, and one of the ministers immediately questioned: "Since you said that it is an ancient curiosity, where do you know it?" Why has no one ever heard of our Manchu civil and military affairs! ”

Xu Dong looked at the shouting old man and was also a little puzzled, "If you don't know, you don't know, I haven't seen it so horizontally, if you don't know, you have to be ashamed to ask, is it possible that you can know everything in this world?" Besides, who said that no one in the Manchu Dynasty knew about it, His Royal Highness the King of Wei must know about it! Yes, His Royal Highness King Wei! ”

Although King Wei had abandoned him before, Xu Dong was still full of admiration for King Wei, and he could understand that King Wei abandoned him Xu Dong, after all, no one could tolerate a person who didn't finish the test paper.

King Wei looked at Xu Dong and thought about how to win him over, but he didn't expect him to suddenly say that he knew, looking at his confident appearance, King Wei didn't know whether he knew about it or not.

Everyone's eyes moved to King Wei's body, and Xu Dong's somewhat disrespectful words were also put aside by everyone, and after a while, King Wei shook his head and said: "This king doesn't know about this, why does Xu Hanlin say that this king knows?" ”

Xu Dong suddenly deflated when he heard that King Wei didn't know about it, and muttered a little sadly: "When I met King Wei before, Xia Guan had the honor to present an unknown book to His Royal Highness, which recorded a lot of strange things, and Xia Guan thought that His Royal Highness would read it, but now I know that His Royal Highness has not read it." ”

As soon as this remark came out, King Wei's face was also a little unsightly, he didn't know what Xu Dong was going to say, if he really said that he had stolen the test questions, then he would be finished.

But fortunately, Xu Dong is not a troubled person, after saying this, he obediently stood aside and stopped talking, Li Chengqian saw that King Wei's face changed again and again, and he also smiled: "King Wei is such a studious person who got such a book and didn't read it, I think it's because there are too many nosy things on weekdays!" ”

King Wei was stunned and didn't dare to speak, and the rest of the people were still thinking about no one to scold Li Chengqian, and the court instantly fell silent.

However, Li Shimin immediately said: "Xu Aiqing must be careful when he arrives in Hanlin, since King Wu doesn't like anecdotes and sundries, he sent this book to me today, and I am curious." ”

King Wei naturally did not dare to disobey Li Shimin's will, and said obediently: "It's the sons and daughters who are busy writing books, and they really don't have time to read this book. ”

Li Shimin nodded and motioned for Li Chengqian to continue, Li Chengqian thought for a while and then said: "After that, Erchen took the soldiers of Jingzhou City to defend the 100,000 Turkic soldiers who came to attack, until General Cheng came to Jingzhou City, which drove the Turks away!" ”

Li Chengqian's wave of narration made everyone stunned, you said the unimportant things in so much detail before, but when it came to the important steps, you brushed it aside, Li Shimin also asked a little puzzled: "Why didn't the prince say it carefully, why is it so understated?" ”

Li Chengqian glanced at the hundred officials behind him, and paused before saying: "It's not that Erchen doesn't want to elaborate, but Erchen doesn't want to let these sour rot insult my Datang soldiers, it is they who guard our territory with sweat and blood, but it doesn't matter how I say these sour rot will only keep questioning, as if only in this way can they prove that they have contributed to Datang, but the border of this Datang is guarded by my Datang soldiers, and the people of Datang are protected by my Datang soldiers, and these sour rot have not contributed any strength except for twittering!" ”

Li Shimin said angrily: "Enough, the prince is not tired from the journey, why did he say wild words!" ”

Li Chengqian stopped talking and stood aside obediently, as if nothing had happened.

Cheng Chumo also knelt down on the side and said: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince may be because the soldiers of the East Palace Mansion have suffered too many casualties, and these civil officials continue to question the hard work of the soldiers, please forgive me." ”

Li Shimin didn't ask any more, looked at Li Chengqian and said: "After that, there will be things after that!" ”

The hundred officials were stunned, they only knew that Li Chengqian had lasted until Cheng Yanjin arrived, but they didn't know that there was something else after that, and they all stared at Li Chengqian, wondering what happened afterward.

Li Chengqian thought for a while and then said: "After that, General Hou also arrived in Jingzhou City, but General Hou arrived in Jingzhou City from the road of Gaochang Kingdom, and they also met the Turks who fled for their lives on the way, General Hou Shenwu, and brought back the treacherous King of Gaochang Kingdom by the way!" ”

This time the court was completely exploded, they didn't think that the Tang Dynasty and the Turks would start a war to capture the king of Gaochang Kingdom, Gaochang Kingdom has always shown great loyalty to the Tang Dynasty, these years have paid tribute on time, never used the heart of overstepping, and now Hou Junji suddenly captured the king of the people, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were very surprised.

An old Wenchen immediately said angrily: "What about Hou Junji? How can you casually arrest the king of my Datang vassal country, so that the outside world can see me Datang! ”

A military general said, "What do you think? Naturally, I think that I am a Tang Shenwu, and it is not something that these subject countries can bully casually! ”

These civil and military generals quarreled completely, and the polarization was very obvious, Li Shimin squinted at the scene in front of him, although he expected this scene to appear at the beginning, but when this scene appeared, Li Shimin still couldn't help but be angry.

Gao Changguo's betrayal of the Tang Dynasty is already a sure thing, and these ministers who have business dealings with Gao Changguo are still thinking about their own business, and they don't think about the problems of the imperial court at all. Li Shimin looked at Li Chengqian, who was still watching the excitement, and said in his heart, you laugh now, and see what you do when you encounter this situation in the future.

Seeing that they were almost arguing, Li Shimin slapped the table and said angrily: "Shut up for me, send an order for the king of Gaochang Kingdom to come up, I have something to ask him!" ”

The king of Gaochangguo was quickly pulled up, and while walking, he looked at the ministers in the court, there were many familiar faces looking at him anxiously, and the prince and princess of Gaochangguo also followed closely behind, but the princess was wearing a face towel at this time, and she didn't bring a face towel all the way, I don't know what kind of demon she is doing.

Li Shimin looked at the king of Gaochang and said: "Ju Aiqing, the prince said that you let the Turks pass through Gaochang and go to attack Jingzhou City, an important border of our Tang Dynasty, but it is true at this time!" ”

The old king stood up with difficulty, as if his body was about to fall down at a touch, and after hearing Li Shimin's question, he trembled and said: "I have seen the Khan of the Heavens, this matter is nothing, Gao Chang has not betrayed the Tang Dynasty, and it is even more slanderous to let the Turks pass by!" ”

Li Chengqian raised his eyebrows and didn't explain anything, anyway, this person was not caught by himself, just watch the play quietly.

Li Shimin didn't want to see Li Chengqian stay out of the matter, and immediately asked after hearing the old king's words: "Prince, did you hear it?" What do you have to say about that? ”

Li Chengqian took a deep breath and said without panic: "The first old king was captured by General Hou, and the second Turkic soldiers did come from Gaochang to attack Jingzhou City, no matter how you explain it, this is a fact that cannot be changed. ”
