0423 Xihe County Gong

The scale of the personnel arranged by the imperial court to welcome this time was very large, and the ceremonial procession alone was set up for several miles on the north bank of Weishui, which was a little stronger than the scale of the grand marching team entering Beijing.

The specifications of the personnel who went out to welcome were also extremely high, from the crown prince Yuanqin, Guangling Wang Yuanxin to several Yuan clan kings, Dugu Xin, Li Hu, including Gao Zhongmi, the title of Situ and so on, all of them were here.

"It seems that the DPRK and China are also warmly welcoming the triumph of the heroes!"

After Yuwentai got out of the car, he looked at the scene for a while, and said to Li Tai with a smile.

After hearing this, Li Tai hurriedly said respectfully: "The lord Zhizhu is in his hands, and he is expected to take the lead, so that the ministers and others will thwart the offensive of the eastern thieves again, and eliminate the catastrophe for the society. ”

The truth is such a truth, but in the past, Woo Moon Tae traveled back and forth to Gyeonggi, and such a grand welcome scene was rare, and of course Li Tae did not dare to be arrogant enough to attribute this to himself, so he replied in this way.

Yuwentai didn't make more statements after listening, and strode towards the clan and the courtiers and other people who were coming here, and after the group met, there was naturally a round of greetings, and then they hugged Yuwentai and the prince, who were opposite and discordant, and sat down in the tent on the left.

After all, the safety of Daxingtai is of paramount importance, and they must wait until the guards of the Taiwan government cross the river into Beijing and arrange all security matters properly before they can welcome Daxingtai into Beijing.

The area inside this tent is not small, but there are only a dozen seats set up, and there are as many as five or six clan relatives of the single unit clan present, so naturally there is no place for Li Tai.

While everyone was seated, Li Tai was about to go to his father-in-law's side to greet Duguxin, and when he was outside just now, he noticed that this old father-in-law was obviously a little emotional.

As soon as he took two steps behind the crowd, Prince Yuanqin, who was already sitting above, raised his hand and pointed at him and said with a smile: "Guzang Marquis Li Kaifu, we met again today." ”

"The minister greets His Royal Highness the Prince!"

Hearing this, Li Tai hurriedly walked sideways from the crowd and said again.

"Li Kaifu is exempt, you are a meritorious person who serves the country, you don't need to be so restrained."

The prince looked at Li Tai with a smile, and then sighed: "After meeting a few days ago, I have a few people around me, Li Kaifu, you are extraordinary, you will be able to be a great talent in the future, if you can accumulate talents under the door, you will be able to become a good story when you succeed." Just because you were still connected at that time, and I was not harassed by the waiters, I didn't want to be a short year later, Li Kaifu was already standing out and sharp! ”

Li Tai has experienced such a scene more than once, but the prince's courtship to him before also had a little bit of a demonstration to his father-in-law Yu Wentai, but this time it was obviously more aimed at Li Tai, and there was a look of regret between his eyebrows and eyes, probably regretting that he had not treated Li Tai seriously before.

Before he could answer, Dugu Xin also stepped out, pointed at him and smiled at the prince: "Li Boshan is a minister of food, consul in the country, no need to be stored under anyone's door, the country is a strong man, the country is prosperous, if he has a negative Yilu, even if there is no selfish righteousness, His Royal Highness the prince can also be responsible for it." ”

The prince smiled a little embarrassedly when he heard this, his identity is indeed not suitable for saying what he said just now, but this Li Boshan's deeds are too moving, so he can't help but imagine that if he was accepted as a confidant before the other party made a fortune, he can definitely become the face of the East Palace now.

After a short pause, when everyone in the tent had been seated or listed, the prince looked at Yang Kuan, who was sitting below, and smiled: "Huashan Gong, you have to work." ”

After hearing this, Yang Kuan stood up from the banquet and took a copy of the edict from the hand of the waiter standing aside, and then he turned to Li Tai with the edict in his hand and said, "Li Kaifu please come out and accept the edict before the list." ”

As soon as these words came out, Li Tai's face changed slightly, and Yu Wentai, who was sitting above, couldn't help frowning, and then lowered his eyes, but his eyes were shining, and his eyes slowly moved over everyone present, especially at Dugu Xin.

The edict first praised Li Tai's exploits, and then jumped directly to the most important content, adding Li Tai to the middle of the service, the hussar general, the opening of the palace and the three divisions, and at the same time knighted the prince of Xihe County, with 1,800 households.

Such a reward can be regarded as directly filling all items, and the county duke, hussar, and Kaifu are regarded as the top match of the current ministers of civil and military affairs in the Western Wei Dynasty. The only thing that is still a little lacking is that the food is still a little low among the county dukes at the level of the knight, but this thing is originally false, and since the founding of the Western Wei Dynasty, no one has received a little benefit from the fiefdom.

Li Tai Datong entered the country in the ninth year, only a little more than three years later, and in the twelfth year of today's Datong, he has obtained the highest official title from the original white body. With such a speed of promotion, the rockets are simply far behind.

But no one can say that such a reward is unreasonable, and in the face of real merit, it can only be admitted that it is well-deserved.

After receiving this honor and reward, Li Tai still had some doubts in his heart, because on the way here, Yu Wentai had mentioned to him more than once the issue of the reward after entering the court. In other words, the result of this reward is not a decision made by the tyrant at all, but is drawn up by the DPRK.

This is a bit embarrassing, although Li Tai is meritorious and fully deserves this honor, but who will award it is a serious issue.

Although it is said that the knighthood and the edict are all out of the king, but now the military and political power are all under the hegemon, if the emperor wants to transform the virtual into the real and break the current political tacit understanding, once the attempt is made, he will have to pay a heavy price!

Although there was some hesitation in his heart, Li Tai did not dare to refuse his life in front of everyone, now is not the time to be stupid and pose to stand in line, Lao Tzu has made great achievements in working hard outside, do you have to worry about the contradictions between your hegemony and the court when you return to the court?

After he bowed to Xie En and took the edict, he couldn't help but glance at Dugu Xin again, but Dugu Xin put his hand on the eucalyptus and raised his finger to shake him lightly and gently knocked on the table, indicating that he didn't know it but felt that it was not a big deal.

Li Tai retreated with the edict in his hand, and after thinking for a while, he also felt that the imperial court bypassed the overlord to carry out such an operation, and the point was not to win over himself, after all, this knighthood and official were all within the regular range, and even the fictitious food was not overused.

Therefore, the purpose of the imperial court to do such an act is not to make Li Tai grateful, but to emphasize his right to speak.

This can be regarded as a more cautious temptation, there is no trace of violation in the scale and procedure of the reward, even if you want to find fault, you can't find it, you can only acquiesce to such a result.

But for others, it means that the court's favor is not only from the hegemony, but the court still has a lot of say in this regard.

However, what makes Li Tai more helpless is that he is not the only hero of this battle, why did he choose him to give eye medicine to the Bafu instead of Wei Xiaokuan?

Soon after the withdrawal of the Eastern Wei army, when Li Tai's troops had not completely withdrawn from the territory of the Eastern Wei Dynasty, the imperial court happily sent envoys to Yubi City to canonize Wei Xiaokuan.

The two envoys sent to Yubi City, one is the eldest grandson Shaoyuan, and the other is named Wang Yue, one of these two people is from the Changsun clan and the other is from the Jingzhao Wang clan, and they both hold official positions in the overlord, and their identities can be said to fully reflect the care and consideration of the imperial court and the overlord for Wei Xiaokuan, a great hero, and did not say which political force Wei Xiaokuan must be forced into this way.

The reason why he did this was nothing more than to hope that Wei Xiaokuan would not be disturbed by various situations in the country, and only needed to stay in Yubi City with peace of mind to guard the east gate for Sheji.

However, Li Tai naturally did not have such strategic considerations, and northern Shaanxi, where his forces were distributed, was a piece of chicken ribs that was tasteless and discarded, and he did not have to worry about any adverse impact on national defense if he was used to achieve some political intentions.

Moreover, the planners may also have guessed that the Bafu needed to stir up Li Tai to eliminate some of Wei Xiaokuan's presence and influence in the incident, as Li Tai's popularity became higher, then the recent things related to him have of course attracted much attention, and there was no room for any discordant voices.

This wave is really a moderate force, clever timing and accurate prediction, which not only emphasizes the right of the imperial court to speak, but also makes the overlord helpless. Li Tai peeked at Yu Wentai's face and turned a little black, which showed that he was also depressed at this time.

This kind of method style is obviously not something that the prince, a frivolous junior middle school, can do, and Li Tai can't help but think of the emperor ingot torch that he has only seen a few times at the court ceremony and feels relatively unfamiliar.

It is said that this emperor was also known for his strength back then, but now he is completely edgeless and willing to be a puppet, but now it seems that no one is willing to be tied to death, and he still wants to seize the opportunity when he sees it. It's just that now the general trend is coming, even if there is any clever resistance, it is still weak and powerless.

He stayed here for more than an hour, and when it was nearly evening, Chang'an Banzhong sent a messenger to ask Daxingtai when he would enter the palace to meet him, and said that His Majesty the Emperor had set up a banquet in the palace to entertain Prime Minister Yuwen and the triumphant heroes.

"It's getting late today, and I really don't dare to enter the palace again to disturb Chenju. The tent here is complete, so I will stay overnight and cross the river tomorrow morning to worship. ”

Yu Wentai first stood up and walked out of the tent, and everyone in the tent followed suit, but he stood outside the tent and looked at the sun for a while, which was still some time before sunset, and walked back into the tent while talking.

After the other officials of the overlord saw this, they naturally followed Daxingtai to return to their accounts, and the courtiers present were a little embarrassed, some also returned to their accounts, and some people gathered in front of the prince whose face had become not very good-looking, and many of them hesitated and didn't know where to go.

Li Tai couldn't help but be a little amused when he saw this scene, he didn't have to worry about where he was going, and walked straight to his father-in-law Duguxin, who was standing by and watching.
