Li Shimin's expression was grim.

"Read!"

His breathing was involuntarily a little short.

Although he was in Luoyang, there was still a trace of his mind on the battlefield of Goguryeo and he never turned back.

This battle, fought to this point, is already a victory but not a defeat! Otherwise, it will become an embarrassing stain on his brilliant career!

"Yes!"

The flag officer opened the battle report and said respectfully,

"Xu Fenglei, the general commander of the Pyongyang Provincial March, landed from the coastal area of Goguryeo, 'Naimikhu', attacked Pyongyang, captured the Goguryeo regency minister Quan Gai Suwen, and controlled the Pyongyang ministers with 30,000 sailors!"

"After that, 20,000 troops were divided into the north to attack Anshi City, and a fire was set in Anshi City, and together with our land army, they attacked back and forth, and destroyed Anshi City! City Lord Liang Wanchun was captured! Tens of thousands of people were captured, and countless burdens were counted! ”

"The general manager integrated the three armies, divided the troops into three routes the next day, and within three days, captured more than ten cities such as Snake Ascending Bone City, Domestic City, Pill Capital City, and Black Bone City!"

"Wherever the army passed, there was no offense with the people, in order to gather the hearts of the people and collect the people's hope, and wherever the army went, the people of Goguryeo City all ate pot pulp to welcome the king!"

"In less than seven days, the Tang army has taken over ninety percent of Goguryeo's territory, and many small cities even only need to send a messenger over to recruit and surrender, without spending a single soldier!"

Li Shimin: "!! ”

Listening to this battle report, the blood in his body surged!

"Yes, yes! All right!! ”

Li Er said excitedly,

"Fight beautifully, fight happily, this is what I want, this is the result I want!"

"Listen, you are worthy of being a handsome, you know my heart, you know my heart!"

Listening to this battle report, his beauty is about to bubble!

At this moment, even the fatigue on the body has dissipated a lot, and the joy is all over the body!

"Hearing about war, there is indeed a set."

The eldest grandson Wujian also praised from the bottom of his heart,

"Whether it is fighting the Turks or Goguryeo, he fights smartly and never fights stupidly, which is extremely rare, and he must have a strong ability to predict."

"This ability, in the DPRK, it is estimated that Li Jing can be comparable to him."

Li Shimin waved his hand.

"Li Jing is half a chip worse than him! This kid specializes in fighting fairy battles! If you think about it, 30,000 sailors smuggled into the Goguryeo nest and arrested Quangai Suwen! This is changed to Li Jing, can it be done? No! ”

He was steadfast in his word,

"This kind of battle can only be fought by Tingming!"

"Tsk...... It's really nerve-wracking, I don't know how to reward him. ”

"Why don't you give him a title of Taibao? Over the years, he has repeatedly protected me and the country, and this time he led the overall situation when I fainted and fought such a beautiful battle! This is fully worthy of the title of Taibao! ”

The eldest grandson Wujian bowed slightly.

"It's good, I'll see it."

"With his merits, he is indeed worthy of the honor of this genuine product."

Li Shimin grinned, beckoned to the outside of the hall, and motioned for him to continue.

The flag officer outside the palace continued to report:

"After the army entered Pyongyang City, Goguryeo had only one border garrison to resist stubbornly, and the Grand Governor and the Silla army defeated it in each city, beheading 5,000 and capturing more than 10,000."

"At this point, our army has occupied the entire territory of Goguryeo, and the Silla kingdom has also recovered its lost territory."

"In order to show his gratitude, the king of Silla has sent his crown prince to Luoyang to thank His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty!"

Li Shimin smiled from ear to ear.

"Yes, this King of Silla is quite sensible."

He answered,

"When the time comes, I will have a good chat with his son, after all, everyone will be neighbors in the future."

The eldest grandson pursed his lips and smiled.

"The king of Silla probably didn't want such powerful neighbors, he could pinch them to death with any finger, which was much more terrifying than Goguryeo."

She quipped.

Li Shimin shrugged.

"That's no way, he doesn't want to be useless, I'm already his neighbor anyway!"

"Actually, he doesn't need to panic, I will never attack those respectful small countries that keep to themselves, and I am not a dumb king."

Crash.

The flag officer took out another notebook from his bosom and reported:

"Your Majesty, this is the list of heroes drawn up by the Grand Governor, please take a look."

"The chief manager also specially reminded that there is an organization called the dark web, which played a huge role in the process of the surprise attack on Pyongyang, and I beg His Majesty to reward him together."

The eldest grandson was stunned.

"The dark web? What is that? ”

Li Shimin pouted and said:

"An intelligence organization drummed up by Xu Fenglei's daughter is quite good."

"Their intelligence capabilities outside the country are more powerful than my eyes and ears, and they have played a great role this time, and they should indeed be commended."

The eldest grandson's eyes widened.

"Ah???h

She was stunned and said,

"I heard that I have a daughter? This...... What's the matter? ”

"Tell me about it! With whose child? Who is his wife? ”

A gossip heart, burning!

Li Shimin: "......"

"It's not what you think, that girl is the goddaughter of the confession, but she is actually the daughter of the warrior Tong."

Li Er explained,

"We'll tell you about this slowly. You've been asleep for nine years, but so many things have happened, one by one...... We're going to have a long way to go. ”

The eldest grandson was stunned.

She's not in a hurry.

Talking slowly like this, the couple will have endless words.

"Bring it in."

Li Shimin commanded.

The flag officer handed the medal to the attendant, who forwarded it to Li Second.

He gently flipped it open, looking at it carefully, page by page.

We must be cautious about military merits.

Datang's military exploits have a very high gold content.

Nod, that's countless sergeants crossing the class and jumping into the dragon gate!

"Hmmm......"

Li Shimin took a while to read it, and said,

"It's fair, even a little conservative."

"I gave my permission, but the name of this organization that has made great achievements on the battlefield behind enemy lines is too ugly, what is it called, it is not above board at all."

"I didn't put it on the surface before, but now that I want to be rewarded, I have to have a good name."

"Let them change their names!"

"Draw up another will, add the title of Xu Feng Lei Taibao, and add 500 households to the food estate, so as to show his contribution to the Liao."

At this point, Xu Fenglei is indeed a little unsealable.

Give a revered title, and then casually send the ball to the food eater.

"Also, give the crown prince a decree, I won't go back to Chang'an for a while, tell him not to think about coming to see him, what he wants to do is to supervise the country well and govern on my behalf."

The flag officer responded respectfully and saluted.

The attendants also bowed down and retired, arranging for the emperor's will to go.

In the house, only Li Shimin and the eldest grandson were left.

The two glanced at each other and snuggled up again.

"God wants me to rest......"

Li Shimin said with emotion,

"This matter has been successfully concluded, what reason do I have not to rest?"

"Guanyin, let's fly in this Luoyang City, no matter everything else, fly him for three or five years! How is it? ”

The eldest grandson Wujian smiled slightly.

"It's all up to you."

Her body leaned into Li Shimin's arms.

As the sun set, the afterglow shone on the faces of the two.

This moment is worth cherishing.

……

months later.

After the fall of Goguryeo, the armies of all walks of life returned to their positions, and after the fall of Goguryeo, they were set up as four counties and completely incorporated into the territory of the Tang Dynasty.

This battle quickly wiped out Goguryeo, which shocked the surrounding Khitan, Xue Yantuo and other countries trembling, and Xue Yantuo Yinan Khan even took the initiative to spit out several pieces of fertile grassland that had been secretly swallowed at the beginning.

In this regard, Li Chengqian naturally laughed at it and managed his feudal kingdom beautifully.

The Tang Dynasty became larger and more prosperous.

But just when it was thriving, a strange thing happened-

Emperor, quit!

Lai is not leaving in Luoyang! Allowed the crown prince and the princes and ministers to take turns to advise, the letters of pleading were almost snowflakes, but the emperor was still indifferent.

It's rotten! I want to open it! Lie flat!

What can you do with me?

For such a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water, the crown prince Li Zhi had no choice but to personally lead hundreds of civil and military officials, go outside the Luoyang Palace, and kneel to beg his father to return to Chang'an!

At this moment, the scorching sun is high.

Outside the palace, countless people knelt down densely.

The leader is the prince Li Zhi wearing a python robe! He put his head directly on the ground as a sign of sincerity!

There was only one person in the audience who was nibbling on a watermelon and hiding in the shade of a tree.

"Tut-tut......"

Xu Fenglei shook his head and sighed,

"I really want to retire too......"

"This Li Er, you must be living a very comfortable life now, right? It's enviable......"

After the victory of the Battle of Goguryeo, he went to the top and asked to resign and go into hiding, but Li Shimin did not allow it, and he had to continue to work.

He had no choice but to keep working.

Unexpectedly, this blink of an eye...... Hey!

Your emperor took the lead and lay flat and rotten!

What's going on? The gentle hometown of the queen mother, is it really so fragrant?

Just as he was thinking wildly, an attendant appeared in front of him.

I saw him walk quickly in front of Li Zhi and pleaded:

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, please hurry up! It's too sundry here, if you get sunburned, how can you get it? ”

"Your Majesty said, let you go back and go back with the hundred officials...... The country needs to be controlled by you in order to function properly......"

When Li Zhi heard this, he said with great firmness:

"No, Erchen can't get up!"

"If my father doesn't return to Chang'an, it must be because my son has done something bad, which makes my father angry!"

"Therefore, the retainers must kneel here to apologize!"

"When the father and emperor forgive the son and are willing to return to Chang'an, the son will get up!"

Chamberlain: "......"

He didn't know how to take this, and his expression was extremely embarrassed.

At this moment, I heard Li Zhi suddenly shout excitedly:

"Father! Please go back to Chang'an! ”

'The country can't be without a king for a day, and the Tang Dynasty can't be without your father for a day! ’

"No matter what the reason, all the mistakes are the fault of the son, and the son is willing to bear all the responsibility! Erchen implores you to return to Chang'an for the sake of Jiangshan Sheji and the people of Limin! ”

"Please!"

Bang!

Another head slammed into the hot floor tiles.

When he kowtowed, the civil and military officials also knelt down and begged:

"Your Majesty, please go back to Chang'an!"

"Your Majesty, the country can't be without a king for a day!"

"Your Majesty......"

There are many supplicants, and there are even those who beat their chests and feet, and the scene looks extremely lively, which is fun for Xu Fenglei, the melon-eating masses.

"Hmph, if you want to retire, how can it be so easy to ......"

He laughed,

"And it's up to you how you respond,"

Xu Fenglei was watching the play, but saw another slave in the palace walking out quickly, and whispered a few times to the servant in front of Li Zhi.

When the chamberlain heard this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and began to search for something in the crowd.

He looked at it, and finally locked his eyes on Xu Fenglei in the shade of the tree.

"Xu Gong!"

"Taibao!"

He suddenly shouted,

"Your Majesty, please talk to the palace!"

Whew!

Countless eyes turned to Xu Fenglei!

Everyone knelt, just he stood, but no one thought it was strange, but thought it was normal.

The only living Zhengyi Taibao in Datang is to in public in the palace, and it is estimated that he will be forgiven by the emperor...... His status is too transcendent!

"Me?"

Xu Fenglei was a little surprised.

When he was a teacher before, he originally wanted to come to Luoyang to meet Li Shimin, but he was ruthlessly refused.

As a result, now, he has been summoned by name.

"Yes."

The chamberlain said respectfully,

"Please enter the palace."

Xu Fenglei bowed slightly, threw the melon in his hand to the young official beside him, and walked forward.

As he went, all the ministers turned around and pleaded:

"Gong Xu! Please! We must let Your Majesty change his mind and return to Chang'an! ”

"Yes! Xu Gong, it's all up to you! You are the hope of all of us! ”

"You can! We believe in you! You can always do wonders! ”

Li Zhi also raised his head, his eyes were red, and he said very earnestly:

"Master, please!"

"I must let my father return to Chang'an!"

Xu Fenglei scratched his head.

"I'll try, I'll try."

He's also a bit big-headed.

When a person no longer cares about the power of the emperor, it is difficult for you to persuade him to go back!

I can only talk about it first to see if Li Shimin really wants to retire completely, or just play in Luoyang for two years to recuperate.

He thinks that there is a high probability that it will be the former.

"Lead the way."

Xu Fenglei raised his hand and said.

"Yes, Taibao, please come with the slaves."

The chamberlain knew the weight of the middle-aged man in front of him, hunched his waist, only half a step ahead of Xu Fenglei, and led the way in front.

Da-da-da-da.

The footsteps are getting farther and farther away.

The ministers looked at Xu Fenglei, their eyes full of hope.

Xu Gong, it's the whole village, oh no, the hope of the whole Tang!

Li Zhi also looked at Xu Fenglei's back. His gaze flickered a few times, and finally returned to depth.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, you can rest, the sun here is too scorching."

"Taibao has come in to talk, I believe there will be a good result, you don't have to toss yourself anymore, let's go, let's go to the shade and stay for a while."

The minister beside him couldn't help but be concerned.

When Li Zhi heard this, he didn't say a word, but knelt on the ground again, still knocking his head on the floor tile respectfully.

Just this gesture, needless to say, who doesn't say 'filial piety' when they see it?
