Li Shimin ordered officials such as Changsun Wuji, Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling to be called into the palace to discuss matters. At the same time, he went straight to the palace where Li Yuan lived.
Now Li Yuan's palace is much deserted.
However, Li Yuan also has his own things to do, read books, enjoy singing and dancing, and then play games like mahjong, time flies by.
This mahjong was made by Du Qi.
Very suitable for killing time.
When Li Yuan was reading today's Datang Daily, he saw Li Shimin enter, but he did not put down the Datang Daily, but continued to read the newspaper, leaving Li Shimin aside.
Li Shimin was not in a hurry, and waited quietly.
Time passed by little by little.
Nearly a quarter of an hour later, after reading the content of the newspaper, Li Yuan put down the newspaper and asked, "The emperor came to my palace, but what's the matter?"
Today's Li Yuan, even if he let go of his prejudice against Li Shimin, he still has a little grudge. After all, Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji died in Li Shimin's coup.
However, Li Yuan accepted the facts anyway, so although the relationship between the two fathers and sons was somewhat indifferent, it was not as hostile as it was in history.
Li Shimin didn't care about the tone of Li Yuan's words, and said excitedly: "Father, Li Jing has won a great victory in Yinshan, defeating the Turkic army. Li Jing led 30,000 elite soldiers and brought together the troops of Li Ji, Chai Shao, Zhang Gongjin, Xue Wanche and others. The Turks were destroyed, and the Turkic Jieli Khan and the Turk Khan were captured."
After a pause, Li Shimin continued: "Not only that, but also beheaded more than 10,000 Turks, captured more than 100,000 Turkic people, and hundreds of thousands of cattle and sheep. All the Turkic lands in the north are included in the territory of the Tang Dynasty. After today, there will be no more Turkic lands."
"Really?"
After Li Yuan heard it, a shocked expression appeared on his face.
He also stood up immediately.
?As the former emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Li Yuan knew the importance of victory and the impact of the destruction of the Turks. We must know that when Li Yuan first established the country, because he was worried about the Turks going south, he had to make compromises and send money to the Turks in order to temporarily stabilize the Turks.
At that time, Datang was weak.
Now, it is finally revenge.
Li Yuan believed that Li Shimin would not talk nonsense, but he was still shocked by the news, so he asked again: "Emperor, Li Jing really destroyed the Turks and won the victory."
"yes!"
Li Shimin said solemnly: "The battle report has been sent back. Li Jing is now escorting Jieli Khan and others, and is heading south to return to Chang'an."
"Good, good, good!"
Li Yuan said three good words in a row.
He was extremely excited.
It is even more joyful.
Li Yuan flicked his sleeves and said, "Emperor, defeating the Turks is a big deal. For this matter, you can order Datang Daily to print the news today, and immediately read the news of victory in Datang. Let Datang Daily, immediately Publish this news. At the same time, let the people of the world know that the imperial court will reward the meritorious officials."
Li Shimin said: "I understand!"
Li Yuan just sat down again, waved his hands and said, "You have a lot of things to do, so go ahead."
However, Li Shimin did not leave, and said, "Father, the army is on its way back. What I want to consider is that after the army led by Li Jing returns victoriously, I will summon the ministers who have made meritorious deeds and hold a banquet to cleanse them. At that time, I hope that the emperor can participate."
Li Yuandao: "I will definitely participate in such a grand event. When the time comes, you can arrange someone to notify you."
"yes!"
Li Shimin agrees.
Then, Li Shimin turned around and left. After returning to Liangyi Hall, Changsun Wuji and others had already arrived. Li Shimin immediately told Datang Daily to print the news so that the news could be passed on.
Then, they discussed many things, all of which were celebrations and the placement of Jieli Khan and others.
Arrange things one by one.
In the end, it was decided that when Li Jing led the army to return triumphantly, Li Shimin would go to greet the heroes in person.
Once everything was arranged, we started busy preparations.
The passage of time day by day.
In the blink of an eye, it entered June.
In June, it has already entered summer, and the weather is getting hotter and hotter, but the whole territory of Tang Dynasty is full of celebrations. Because the latest news has been published in the Datang Daily, Li Jing led an army of 30,000, and joined forces from all walks of life to fight against the Turks, and finally completely wiped out the Turks.?? achieved a big victory.
? On June 6th, this day, at the gate of the north gate of Chang'an City.
Li Shimin is wearing a dragon robe and a formal robe, and all the civil and military officials are also in the back, a solemn and solemn scene.
?There has been news that Li Jing will return to court today.
So Li Shimin came to greet him in person.
Everyone waited quietly.
Li Shimin looked at the official road in the distance, with a look of expectation on his face. After he succeeded to the throne, he destroyed the Turks. This was his first achievement in administration, and it also made his status impossible to shake. Because all the people in the world will be grateful for Li Shimin's meritorious deeds, and they will all think that Li Shimin's deeds are outstanding and he is a great emperor.
This is the impact of military exploits.
"coming!"
Behind Li Shimin, Changsun Wuji spoke.
He has already seen the banner in the distance.
Li Shimin also raised his head and looked intently, and saw the army coming from a distance, the mighty army, winding and long, and at the front were Li Jing, Du Qi and his party.
The army hurried on their way, and when they were not far from the north gate, they saw Li Shimin and his party at the gate of the city.
Li Jing immediately called Du Qi, and the two rode their horses and went forward one step ahead.
When the two were twenty steps away from the gate of the city, they had already got off their horses and walked to Li Shimin on foot. At the same time, they saluted Li Shimin. come back."
Li Shimin said: "You two, you have worked hard."
"I'm not working hard."
Li Jing and Du Qi answered at the same time.
Li Shimin said: "The army is returning to the city, you two, enter the city with me in a carriage."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Li Jing and Du Qi were not polite, they both agreed.
The two boarded the carriage and entered the city together with Li Shimin. The civil and military officials, as well as the main generals who led the army in triumph, also entered the city immediately, but the main generals had to settle the army first before entering the palace.
A group of people returned to court.
After entering the Hall of Liangyi, they took their seats.
Li Shimin's face has a strong sense of pride, and it is full of smiles. Datang won the victory in the foreign war, he, the emperor, is extremely honorable.
Li Shimin said in a deep voice: "In the battle to destroy the Turks, although we in the Tang Dynasty said that there were various generals dispatching troops and generals, in fact, we didn't waste people and money, nor did we consume many ambush soldiers."
"This battle can be called beautiful."
"As the old saying goes, the lord is worried about the humiliation of his ministers, and the lord humiliates his ministers to death. When the monarch is worried, the courtiers feel ashamed, and when the monarch is humiliated, the courtiers are willing to die. Only in this way can the monarch and his ministers feel sad."
"In the past, the Tang Dynasty had just established a state, its foundation was unstable, and it was unable to fight against the Turks. Especially the people in the border counties were invaded by the Turks again, and they were extremely miserable. Because of the people and for the sake of the people, the Supreme Emperor had to submit to the Turks to ask the people Safety."
"For this reason, I am often heartbroken and determined to destroy the Turks."
"Now in this battle, our Tang Dynasty has mobilized a small number of troops, swept away the decline, completely wiped out the Turks, and even made Jieli Khan surrender to the Tang Dynasty. It is finally a shame."
When Li Shimin said this, he was even more excited. He couldn't help shouting: "Da Tang, Wan Sheng!"
"Datang Wansheng!"
Below, Changsun Wuji and others followed suit.
"Datang Wansheng!"
"Datang Wansheng!"
One by one, the officials kept shouting.
The voices of everyone shouting, one after another, echoed in the hall. Especially for such a big victory, it is an extremely exciting thing for a country, so everyone is extremely excited.
All the faces were flushed red.
One by one kept shouting.
After a long time, everyone stopped shouting. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
