Li Chengqian also chuckled: "I, Li Chengqian, have been in the army for a year or two."
"It's not like I don't have die-hard loyalists under my command."
"And thinking about it, the reason why they are loyal to me is not only because of my identity, but also because of my way of running the army."
"I have always been the one who deserves the award and the punishment that deserves the punishment."
"Today, you have made great achievements, so I naturally want to reward you."
Speaking of this, Li Chengqian approached Zhang Xiao and said, "There is no need for you to be so hostile to me." .??.
"After all, the fight between the King of Shu and the Crown Prince has long ceased, and the world has prospered together."
"And I also hope that you can correct your identity. You are a general of the Tang Dynasty, not someone's general."
After finishing speaking, Li Chengqian looked at Zhang Xiao deeply, then turned around and left without saying anything more.
Only Zhang Xiao and Jia Yanzhang were left standing there.
And looking at Li Chengqian's leaving figure, Jia Yanzhang didn't know what happened between the two.
But he could also feel that Zhang Xiao seemed to be very prejudiced against the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty.
After thinking for a moment, he turned his head and glanced at Zhang Xiao, and asked tentatively: "It is really a blessing for the country to have such a prince in the Tang Dynasty."
"yes."
There was also a flash of admiration in Zhang Xiao's eyes, but it disappeared in an instant.
He turned to look in the direction Li Chengqian left and said, "Perhaps his only shortcoming is that he is too arbitrary."
Zhang Xiao's expression may change quickly.
But Jia Yanzhang was still keenly aware of it.
However, he didn't say anything more about it. After saying goodbye to Zhang Xiao, he went to visit Zhao Youlin.
Zhang Xiao stood there blankly, not moving for a long time.
To be honest, his mood is a bit complicated now.
Although he was a general of the Tang Dynasty, he was promoted by Li Ke single-handedly.
He deeply missed Li Ke's kindness and was willing to give everything for it.
And it is precisely because of this that he has maintained a trace of hatred for Li Chengqian in his heart for many years.
After all, it was he who destroyed everything in the Shu army, and it was he who destroyed everything Li Ke owned and everything he owned.
But as he spent more and more time with Li Chengqian, he gradually began to find that this hatred was gradually fading away.
He even found that his admiration for Li Chengqian grew stronger and stronger in his heart.
He could gradually feel the sincerity in Li Chengqian's heart.
He could even feel that Li Chengqian was not as bad as the outside world said.
It's just because of his identity and status that whenever he does something, people from the outside will always exaggerate and distort it.
If you abandon all this and think about it carefully, you will find that everything he does is for the overall situation and for the sake of Datang.
Because of him.
People in the Tang Dynasty no longer had to worry about going hungry.
Because of him.
The military power of the Tang Dynasty reached an unprecedented level.
Because of him.
The territory of the Tang Dynasty expanded to a point where no one before or after it was afraid of anyone coming.
When thinking of these, Zhang Xiao couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly.
He looked at the open space in front of him and murmured: "Maybe the future of Datang is really in his hands..."
…
The twelfth year of Zhenguan, the winter solstice.
In the north, it is the severe cold of March 9th, which is also the coldest time of the year.
This year's winter seems to be colder than in previous years.
Ordinary people were so cold that they did not dare to take out anything, so the whole family held a brazier to keep warm.
Compared with ordinary people's homes, there hasn't been much change in the palace.
Especially here in the East Palace.
You know, Li Chengqian is a very enjoyable person, how could he let himself suffer?
During the last renovation of the East Palace, Li Chengqian not only repaired the courtyards, but also installed several ground dragons in each courtyard.
Even in today's cold weather, the house is still as warm as spring.
Coupled with the blessing of the animal skin carpet laid on the ground, you can even step on the carpet with bare feet.
It's almost noon.
The mistress of the East Palace was lying on the large carved bed, taking a deep rest.
The closer she gets to giving birth, the harder it becomes for her.
The little devil in her belly seemed to have no intention of leaving her mother's belly, tossing her all day long and keeping her awake.
As a result, she was completely confused between black and white, and her sleep became sporadic. When the little devil in her stomach stopped tossing her, she could rest for a while.
This time, she was unable to continue to lead the East Palace.
And it was because of her rest that she almost caused the servants in the East Palace to turn upside down.
You know, in order to avoid suspicion, Lu Wanjie usually doesn't care about anything. She has all the skills, but she can't really convince the public.
Those people in the East Palace were not convinced by her at all.
Even if Xiao Chuzi helps Lu Wanjie, it will be useless.
But in Su Qingling's current state, managing the East Palace would be equivalent to killing her.
After all, the East Palace is the residence of the prince, and countless people in the world are watching.
If we continue to allow things to develop, I don’t know how many people will be criticized and abused in the future.
Lu Wanjie did not dare to hide the matter and reported it directly to Empress Changsun.
After learning the news, Empress Changsun dealt with it very simply and directly transferred Li Lizhi to live in the East Palace.
Let her take care of Su Qingling's food and daily life, and assist Lu Wanjie in managing some chores in the East Palace.
In this era, giving birth to a child is equivalent to taking half of a woman's life.
Inside Su Qingling's belly was Li Chengqian's first child.
He is also Li Shimin’s first legitimate grandson.
How could Empress Changsun make Su Qingling and the child in her belly suffer?
But when Su Qingling was about to give birth, the dead guy hadn't come back yet.
Queen Changsun was also a little angry.
She came to the Manna Hall with a bit of resentment.
Just looking at her face made all of Li Shimin's servants turn pale with fright.
Li Shimin's character is actually not much different from Li Chengqian's.
Although he usually has a cold face, he can still joke around and chat with his servants about everyday things. Look at Zhang Xiao's appearance.
Li Chengqian also chuckled: "I, Li Chengqian, have been in the army for a year or two."
"It's not like I don't have die-hard loyalists under my command."
"And thinking about it, the reason why they are loyal to me is not only because of my identity, but also because of my way of running the army." ??
"I have always been the one who deserves the award and the punishment that deserves the punishment."
"Today, you have made great achievements, so I naturally want to reward you."
Speaking of this, Li Chengqian approached Zhang Xiao and said, "There is no need for you to be so hostile to me."
