When Ye Qingyun and others came, they rushed to rescue Zijin Pass in order to rush for time.
Therefore, Zen Master Dahui used the Xumi Pagoda, the most precious treasure of the former Liufa Heavenly Palace, to bring an army of 100,000 directly to the north.
That was a temporary measure, something that couldn't be done in a hurry.
Now that we're back in Chang'an, there's no need to be in such a hurry.
The army returned unhurriedly.
Along the way, many people came spontaneously to reward the troops.
Someone is bringing wine.
Someone served delicious food.
There were also some pretty girls who were ogling the soldiers in the military formation.
If it weren't for Li Yuanxiu's strict military discipline, these girls' seductive looks would have severely damaged this iron-blooded army.
It took nearly a month and a half.
Four hundred thousand troops returned to Chang'an.
More than half of the 400,000 troops were gathered from several cities near Chang'an.
So most of the people returned to their respective places of residence.
Only 150,000 people were left, and they entered Chang'an with Li Yuanxiu and others.
When they returned to Chang'an, the whole Chang'an seemed particularly lively.
Emperor Li Tianmin personally led a group of officials and people from the north gate of Chang'an until thirty miles away.
Welcome the triumphant army.
"They're coming!"
"I'm coming!"
"came back!"
"Our heroes of the Tang Dynasty are back!"
...
When they saw the army appearing in the distance, the whole of Chang'an immediately boiled.
Countless people cheered.
Countless people celebrated.
Li Tianmin was also full of excitement.
Great victory in the North!
The remains of the great ancestor have also been returned!
This is a double happiness event.
It's worth welcoming him in person.
The army arrives.
Li Yuanxiu and others took the lead in dismounting.
"Greetings to Your Majesty!"
Everyone came closer and saluted Li Tianming.
"Okay, okay!"
Li Tianmin quickly helped Li Yuanxiu up, but looked at Ye Qingyun who was bowing to the side.
Immediately afterwards.
Li Tianmin knelt down on one knee in front of Ye Qingyun.
Jaw-dropping.
Only ministers have always bowed to the emperor.
Why did the emperor kneel to his ministers?
Although it was just one knee, it was still shocking.
Ye Qingyun was also shocked.
"Your Majesty, please get up quickly, please don't do this!"
Li Tianmin refused to stand up.
He looked at Ye Qingyun solemnly.
"National Master, please accept my obeisance!"
While talking, Li Tianmin bowed to Ye Qingyun.
Ye Qingyun had no choice but to accept it.
What do you think this is called?
The emperor actually knelt down to me?
This is really completely upside down.
He was really afraid that someone would not understand him and would stand up and kill him.
Fortunately not.
"The Imperial Master fought for our Tang Dynasty and planned the Heavenly Wolf Clan. He worked hard and achieved great results. He is the number one contributor to this Northern Campaign!"
"No matter what, the Imperial Master can bear my worship!"
"More worthy of the worship of countless people of my Tang Dynasty!"
As he spoke, the subjects behind Li Tianmin all bowed to Ye Qingyun.
Ye Qingyun was so flattered that he didn't know what to do for a moment.
When have we ever encountered such a scene?
"Everyone, get up quickly."
Ye Qingyun could only say this.
Li Tianmin stood up and then looked at his son Li Yuanxiu.
"Yuan Xiu, you did a great job this time."
Li Tianmin praised.
Li Yuanxiu felt a little ashamed: "This pacification of the northern border is all due to the master. My son and I just obeyed orders and did not make any achievements."
Li Tianmin shook his head.
"This is the first time you have led an army alone, and even fought against a foreign race. To achieve such results, your contribution is second only to the national division."
Li Yuanxiu looked moved.
"This is what a son should do!"
Li Tianmin nodded.
"Soldiers, you have worked hard!"
He shouted loudly and circulated his spiritual energy so that his voice could spread to all the soldiers.
"It is our honor to fight for the Tang Dynasty!"
"Long live the Tang Dynasty! Long live your Majesty!"
"I will die without regrets!"
...
Shouts one after another rang out from the military formation.
It's impassioned and passionate.
At this time, a coffin was also carried out from behind Li Yuanxiu and others.
Seeing this coffin, Li Tianmin's expression suddenly became solemn.
He quickly knelt on the ground.
Everyone also knelt down together.
"Welcome to His Majesty Emperor Gaozu for the return of his dragon body!"
Woo~~~
The long howl, with a bit of sadness and heaviness, resounded through the nine gates of Chang'an.
All members of the Li royal family came forward at this moment.
Then he knelt down and saluted around the coffin.
This coffin contains the remains and sword of Emperor Gaozu of the Tang Dynasty.
"Your Majesty, please support the spirit!"
Li Tianmin immediately stood up and helped the spirit himself.
This is proper etiquette.
It is reasonable and reasonable for the remains of Emperor Gaozu to be returned to Chang'an, and for the present Majesty to come and care for the spirit.
All members of the royal family follow closely.
All the way to the Li family’s imperial mausoleum.
This is where members of the royal family are buried.
The deepest part of the imperial mausoleum is the imperial mausoleum.
Only the emperors of the Tang Dynasty were qualified to be buried in the imperial mausoleum.
All emperors of the Tang Dynasty were buried in the imperial mausoleum, including the current Li Tianmin. Although he is still alive, his imperial mausoleum is also being built.
But only the tomb of Emperor Gaozu has only a tomb inside.
Because the remains of Emperor Gaozu have always been in the Tianlang Clan and cannot return.
This is also the pain that the Li royal family has always suffered.
nowadays.
The remains of the great ancestor who had been wandering for thousands of years have finally returned.
The Mausoleum of Emperor Gaozu was opened, and the remains of Emperor Gaozu were buried together with his sword.
"bow down!"
With a bow, all members of the royal family knelt down.
"Kowtow!"
Everyone kowtowed together.
"Kowtow again!"
"Kowtow three times!"
After three kowtows, Emperor Li Tianmin and Prince Li Yuanxiu personally built the mausoleum for Emperor Gaozu.
So far.
The remains of the great ancestor were returned to their homeland.
The imperial mausoleum was completed.
But this grand event did not end there.
Chang'an City celebrated for three full days.
Even at night, it is a lively scene.
It wasn't until three days later that everything was gradually returning to normal.
These three days were also very busy for Ye Qingyun.
He was first feted by Li Tianmin in the palace, and then feted by the big shots in Chang'an every day.
Three meals a day can be said to be a full schedule.
Ye Qingyun finally saw it.
This official can no longer do his job.
This daily social life is enough to tire him to death.
Three days later, Ye Qingyun came to the palace and met Li Tianmin.
Upon learning of Ye Qingyun's arrival, Li Tianmin personally went outside the hall to greet him.
Ye Qingyun bowed and bowed.
"Your Majesty, I'm here to say goodbye."
Ye Qingyun got straight to the point and told the purpose of his visit.
Li Tianmin was startled.
"Farewell? Where is the Imperial Master going?"
Ye Qingyun: "After being out for so long, it's time to go back to the Southern Wilderness."
Upon hearing this, Li Tianmin was shocked.
"Is it because I have no place to treat the Imperial Master lightly? I also ask the Imperial Master not to leave the Tang Dynasty. I am still thinking about what kind of reward I will give to the Imperial Master."
Ye Qingyun shook his head.
"Your Majesty, I don't want any reward. I just hope that Your Majesty can let me return to Southern Wilderness."
"Although Chang'an is nice, it is not my hometown, Ye Qingyun."
Li Tianmin became a little silent.
And Ye Qingyun was actually even more emotional.
In fact, this world is not his hometown either.
Unfortunately, it is no longer possible for him to return to his real hometown.
In contrast, the small Fuyun Mountain became the only place that Ye Yun could miss.
"Does the Imperial Master really want to leave? It's better to stay longer."
Li Tianmin was naturally unwilling to let Ye Qingyun leave just like that.
joke!
If a peerless master like Ye Qingyun doesn't curry favor and leaves him in the Tang Dynasty and lets him leave, that would be a real loss.
Li Tianmin has no doubt.
If Ye Qingyun could stay in the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty would be in good times and prosperous.
"Your Majesty, there is no banquet in the world that will not come to an end."
Ye Qingyun said with a smile.
As soon as these words came out, Li Tianmin was stunned.
Nothing lasts forever.
yes!
These words make the truth clear.
No matter how powerful Ye Qingyun is, he is not from the Tang Dynasty.
Forcing him to stay would only make Ye Qingyun unhappy.
