Wang Xuanjing came to Chang'an with Li Shimin's Baojie cavalry. Wang Xuanjing didn't expect that Dou Jiande would be defeated by Li Shimin so quickly, and surrender so neatly.

After seeing the battle report, Wang Xuanjing also had to praise: "If Li Shimin is not the son of the Mandate of Heaven, then who else is qualified to be called the son of the Mandate of Heaven in this era?" ”

"Capture two kings in one battle, and the world will be unified!"

Wang Xuanjing said happily.

The Wang family has always wanted to preserve the vitality of Zhuxia and want to end the troubled times as soon as possible. Now that Dou Jiande has surrendered and the north is pacified, only the Xuzhou region and Jiangnan are left.

Perhaps in two years, the world will be unified, and the new dynasty will begin to recuperate.

Just when Wang Xuanjing was relaxing, he suddenly thought that Li Shimin, the king of Qin, was not the crown prince yet, and his brows immediately wrinkled.

He suddenly realized that this time Li Shimin's exploits seemed to be a little too big. It was so big that the prince and Li Yuan were a little jealous.

Wang Xuanjing came to Chang'an with a heavy heart.

As the capital of the Tang Dynasty, Chang'an was much less prosperous at this time than during the Sui Dynasty.

During the period of Emperor Wen of Sui, the prosperity of Chang'an is still vivid, after the period of Emperor Yang of Sui, and the subsequent wars, even after the Tang Dynasty fixed the capital of Chang'an, it looks much more depressed than before.

At least the endless caravans of the Western Regions that used to be are now gone.

When Wang Xuanjing came to Chang'an, Li Yuan specially ordered the lieutenant to come to greet him, and then directly escorted Wang Xuanjing to the palace.

The place where Li Yuan lived was the palace built by Emperor Wen of Sui, and Wang Xuanjing came to the main hall and officially met the lord of the Tang Dynasty.

is also the most relaxed founder of the country ever, Li Yuan. Originally, the Wang family thought that it was very simple for Emperor Wen of Sui Emperor Yang Jian to become the founding king.

But I didn't expect that there was another person who became the founding monarch of the country and the road was simpler than Emperor Wen of Sui.

Emperor Wen of Sui also fought several battles back then, and used a lot of means to win the throne, but this Li Yuan only announced the start of troops in Jinyang, and then sat on the throne and watched his son lay a big country for him.

Since ancient times, no one has changed the country, and no one has left the right of Tang Gaozu. - "Book of Tang"

"King Xuanjing, see Your Majesty!" Wang Xuanjing saluted Li Yuan.

"The prince is exempt from the courtesy, give the seat!" Li Yuan said happily.

Wang Xuanjing was not polite, got up and sat on the stool.

"Xuanjing said goodbye back then, it's been more than ten years!" Li Yuan said with a smile.

"Back to Your Majesty, it's been twenty-four years!" Wang Xuanjing said.

"Qing is still the same as back then, with a shining demeanor." Wang Xuanjing and Li Yuan chatted casually. Li Yuan attaches great importance to his background, and he is kind to people of high birth, and he can know people and make good use of them, provided that you are of high birth.

If you are faced with a low-born family, the common people will be despised and even disdainful from the bottom of their hearts.

Wang's entry into the dynasty is a big event for Li Yuan, the Wang family has done several major things over the years, so that Wang's reputation is getting higher and higher in the world, and now Wang's banner is clearly supporting Li Tang, what does this mean?

This means that Li Tang is the destiny of heaven, and it means that he has been recognized by the King of Haotian, and those grass-headed kings are not in a hurry to surrender.

Wang's entry into the dynasty was also to enhance Li Yuan's prestige, so that he had enough prestige to subdue the Guanlong nobles.

Although Li Yuan has been in Guanzhong for several years, the power of the Guanlong nobles is still huge, and many times, Li Yuan must also take care of the interests of the Guanlong nobles and give them benefits.

Now with the support of the Wang family, Li Yuan can suppress those Guanlong nobles and let them give up more benefits. This was advantageous for the imperial court.

After meeting with Wang Xuanjing, Li Yuan directly issued an edict in the main hall, appointing Wang Xuanjing as the crown prince Taibao, Guanglu doctor, Zhongshu Ling, and Huaiyang County Marquis, which can be said to be directly a senior official of the Tang Dynasty.

Wang Xuanjing's position is equivalent to the prime minister, responsible for assisting the emperor in handling court affairs, of course, there are several other prime ministers in the Tang Dynasty, and the position of Zhongshuling is much smaller than that of the prime minister in the Daqian period.

The position of the prince and the prince is more of an honorary title, but it also means that he will be the prince's teacher. Obviously, Li Yuan didn't want the relationship between the Wang family and the Qin King Li Shimin to get too close.

So he named Wang Xuanjing the prince Taibao and made him the teacher of the prince Li Jiancheng, as for the Guanglu doctor and the marquis of Huaiyang County, these two are lords, and his lord is not a real title, but more of an honorary title, to improve some of his status and status.

After all, Huaiyang County was not yet in the hands of the Tang Dynasty, and the title of this official was because the Wang family first started in Huai'an, and the title of the Marquis of Huaiyang County was a preferential treatment.

After Wang Xuanjing received many rewards, he was given an official residence, the scale of the official residence is not small, and the repair is also very good, it can be seen that Li Yuan attaches great importance to Wang Xuanjing.

After serving as the Zhongshu Order, Wang Xuanjing also officially entered the Tang Dynasty court, and in the following time, the crown prince Li Jiancheng specially came to visit him and wooed him.

Wang Xuanjing did not refuse, and went to participate in the banquet set by the prince, of course, the more intimate performance was not, and the prince would not be so eager to win over the Wang family.

If Wang Xuanjing is too active, it will also arouse Li Yuan's suspicion.

Soon, in this atmosphere, the envoys sent by Li Shimin escorted Wang Shichong and Dou Jiande to Chang'an successively.

Li Shimin was the commander of the army, followed closely behind.

After making such a great achievement, Li Yuan's heart was very happy, and he specially ordered the prince to go out of the city thirty miles to greet him.

The whole scene was even grander than the last time, and Li Shimin led many generals to follow Li Yuan to Taimiao to sacrifice prisoners.

Because Li Shimin's merits were too great, even Li Yuan was a little unpromoted, so he appointed him as the general of Tiance, opened the palace with the three divisions, and added 20,000 households to the food estate. It can be said that the food of Li Shimin, the king of Qin, has reached the highest level in the Tang Dynasty, with more than 30,000 households.

The opening of the palace and the three divisions also gave Li Shimin the right to officially open the palace, and the Qin Wangfu also became the Tiance Mansion, and he was able to justifiably have his own civil and military ministers.

It's almost exactly the same as the status of the crown prince.

When Li Jiancheng saw this scene, his heart was full of a sense of crisis, and the current Li Shimin was more like a prince than him. You must know that although he also has the right to open the government, the generals under him do not have many troops.

Even Li Jiancheng was a little skeptical that his father Li Yuan was going to change the crown prince.

But followed by Li Yuan's treatment of Wang Shichong and Dou Jiande, it was a big surprise.

Originally, Li Yuan wanted to kill Wang Shichong, but Wang Shichong said that the King of Qin once said that he would spare his life, so Li Yuan exiled him, and for Dou Jiande, Li Yuan didn't think about it, and directly ordered the King of Qin to kill him.
