His Majesty Li Er stood up suddenly and asked urgently: "Is this serious?"
Wang De came running all the way, panting now, and said: "How dare you deceive the king? This old slave is good at making decisions. He has already ordered the messenger from Northern Xinjiang to enter the palace gate, and he is outside the gate at the moment."
How could the emperor be allowed to wait even a moment longer for such a huge matter? When the messenger arrived at Chengtian Gate, Wang De took it upon himself to lead him into the palace.
This matter is indeed against the rules, but now that we are so happy, who cares?
As a eunuch, he always serves the emperor well and the most important thing is to make the emperor happy at all times...
As expected, His Majesty Li Er did not pursue the details and said loudly: "Quickly pass!"
"Here!"
By the time Wang De went out to summon the messenger, His Majesty Li Er was already rubbing his hands in excitement, pacing back and forth in the palace, saying: "Mother! How can this boy Fang Er be so capable? During the Chinese New Year, I was worried that he would kill You Tuen
Tens of thousands of guardsmen were lost in Mobei. Even if he could bring half of them back, he planned to pardon him for listening to slander and greedy for merit. Unexpectedly, he first conquered Wuchuan Town in one fell swoop, and then annihilated tens of thousands of Xue Yantuo's elite at Nuozhen River.
Now we have destroyed Zhao Xin City, pulled out the last barrier of Xue Yantuo's tent, and even wiped out more than 100,000 Xue Yantuo's army... Mother! Is this true or false?"
Prince Li Chengqian and King Wu Li Ke also looked at each other.
Could it be possible that Fang Jun really suffered such a monumental feat like marching straight into the Dragon City and seizing the title of wolf?
It is true that both of them believed in Fang Jun's talent and ability from the beginning to the end, and they always firmly believed that Bang Chui, as others said, was an outstanding person who could bring peace to the country with his civility and military ability, and could earn a fortune even if he practiced businessmanship. But...
…This is Fenglangjuxu!
Throughout the ages, China’s first-class military exploits!
King Wu Li Ke was a little envious, but although the prince Li Chengqian tried his best to keep his face calm, his heart was already like a stormy sea and he was ecstatic.
The reason why he was able to secure the position of prince was due to Fang Jun.
Everyone in the world knows that Fang Jun is Li Chengqian’s first teammate!
As long as Fang Jun can further destroy Xue Yantuo, restrain Shi Yanran, and Feng Langju Xu's military exploits are enough to make Fang Jun immediately promoted to the number one man in the army, shining brightly and no one can surpass him!
The greater Fang Jun's military exploits and the higher his status, the more stable his position as Li Chengqian's heir apparent becomes.
It can even be said that as long as Fang Jun can complete this first military achievement in history, he will become the number one general in the army, and countless factions will move closer to him, forming a huge force in the army.
In the next three to five years, I am afraid that even if the emperor wants to depose him as the crown prince, he will have to see if Fang Jun agrees...
His Majesty Li Er was excited for a while, his mind stabilized, and he glanced at the honest-looking prince with a complicated look.
This boy is not as smart as the King of Wei, not as capable as the King of Wu, and not as smart as the King of Jin. However, he has a good fortune. He is the eldest son when he is born. He has great honor and righteousness. Countless ministers in the court follow him hard, including Fang Jun.
Waiting for talents to help with all their heart.
Think about the time when I not only had to compete with my eldest brother, but also my third brother, and was not favored by my father. I was like a wooden stake in the torrent, trying to move forward but unable to move forward. If I indulged a little, I would lose control.
Washed away by the rolling waves, there is no recovery...
I'm so jealous of this guy's good fortune!
His Majesty Li Er felt a little sour. After thinking about it, he realized that there was no reason to be jealous of his son. He had to calm down and heard footsteps outside the palace.
The messenger from Northern Xinjiang quickly entered the hall, paid homage with military salute, and then raised the battle report above his head with both hands.
Wang De stepped forward to take it and presented it to His Majesty Li Er.
His Majesty Li Er picked up the fire paint with his silver knife, took out the letter paper inside, and read it quickly.
Just at this time, another servant came to report: Song Guogong Xiao Yu, Shangshu Zuopushe British Duke Li Ji, Situ Zhao Guogong Changsun Wuji, Lu Guogong Cheng Yaojin, minister Cen Wenwen, Hejian County Prince Li Xiaogong, Jiangxia County Prince Li
Li Daozong, the Minister of the Ministry, and several big shots in the court came together to ask for an audience with the emperor.
His Majesty Li Er waved his hand and said: "Xuan!"
"Here!"
The chamberlain exited, and after a while, a group of ministers filed in. They all bowed before His Majesty Li Er and shouted in unison: "Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, Your Majesty! The military troubles in Northern Xinjiang have been eliminated since then. Our Tang Dynasty is entrusted with the destiny of Heaven.
The country will be strong and prosperous, the people will live and work in peace and contentment, and create a prosperous age for thousands of years!"
"Uuhaha..."
Even if His Majesty Li Er is as concerned about the city as he is, he cannot bear to be proud at this moment. Such a unique feat has fallen on this dynasty, which is destined to add luster to his Zhenguan Dynasty, and as an emperor, he has suddenly risen to a higher level than the evaluation in historical books.
How can you not be happy?
"It's still a little early. Fang Jun's luck is unparalleled. He can only break through Zhao Xin City and destroy Xue Yantuo's main force. After all, Xue Yantuo's tent is still there. There is still only one fence left for the mountain. We still have to be cautious and wait for good news.
."
This is obviously a safe statement, but in fact it is not a cause for concern at all.
Xue Yantuo's military strength is not as good as the previous Turks. Two hundred thousand elite soldiers is already the limit. First, he lost one hundred thousand elite soldiers in the battle of Monan, and annihilated more than 20,000 in the battle of Nuozhenshui. Now, in the battle of Zhao Xincheng, fifteen more soldiers were destroyed.
With an army of ten thousand, it can be seen that Xue Yantuo even mobilized all the young and strong men from all ethnic groups.
After this battle, Xue Yantuo was exhausted and his collapse was imminent.
The vast moraine and the vast expanse of Mobei are no longer able to withstand the force of the Tang Dynasty's soldiers. It is just around the corner to sweep across Xue Yantuo's tent and attack the Dragon City where Mobei's overlords of all dynasties worshiped heaven.
The martial arts of the strong Han Dynasty are unparalleled in the world and have been praised for centuries, but this is nothing more than this.
…
In the past, His Majesty Li Er would show this kind of good news to his close ministers, not only to share the joy, but also as a way to express trust.
However, unexpectedly, this time, His Majesty Li Er gently placed the good news on the desk in front of him and held it down with a piece of mutton-fat white jade paperweight, without any intention of passing it on to each other.
It's just other people, they probably just have doubts, but they don't care too much.
After all, the emperor is the most powerful person in the world and is known as a "lonely man". He naturally has to be wary of everyone in the world. Perhaps there are some things in Fang Jun's battle report that should not be known to others, and this is as it should be.
After all, you can't feel resentful or dissatisfied just because the emperor used to show the battle reports to everyone, but this time he didn't, right?
But for Xiao Yu, his heart suddenly sank.
Xiao Siye's "false transmission of the imperial edict" has already caused a stir in Beijing and has become very popular.
The guard of Yanmen Gate reported that Xiao Siye had "liaison with foreigners", but he ran away on the way back to Beijing, and then went directly north to commit such treacherous things as "falsely conveying imperial edicts", and deceived Fang Junbing into going straight into the desert.
north……
Now it seems that the emperor suppressed the battle report and refused to circulate it to everyone. Could it be that Fang Jun mentioned the situation of Xiao Siye among them?
If this is the case, it means that Xiao Siye's sins were serious and it was very likely that the Xiao family would be implicated, so the emperor would use this move to correct his sins.
Xiao Yu is just grateful in his heart, but he is a sensible person. After so many years of strong winds, he knows that the more concealed something is, the worse the impact will be once it breaks out. It is better to just expose it and suffer a long time.
Not as good as short-term pain.
Therefore, Xiao Yu asked: "Your Majesty, in the battle report of the Chamberlain, can you mention the evil son of my family? The Xiao family is loyal to Your Majesty and dedicated to the Tang Dynasty. We must not do anything wrong because of a scum.
If something happened, he would cover it up and tarnish his reputation."
The implication is that we understand the emperor's protective feelings, but we should not hide this matter, just bring it out and deal with it. Xiao Siye is naturally unparalleled, and we have no complaints about how much punishment the Xiao family deserves.
So the evil son is a descendant of the Xiao family?
If the son fails to teach, it is the father's fault.
If there are children in the family who are promising, have made great contributions and helped the world, and their chickens and dogs have ascended to heaven to benefit the family, then it is natural that if the children in the family break the law, the family will be implicated.
When all the ministers heard this, they were all silent and did not say a word.
There is really nothing to say...
In the officialdom, there is no tenderness, not to mention that the ministers here have their own camps and interests. It is common to seize the opportunity to try their best to suppress the other party. No one can blame anyone. But after all, Xiao Yu's status
Here, people have already accepted their defeat and let the emperor handle it. If they add insult to injury again at this time, it will be too ugly.
At least in front of the emperor, you still have to maintain a generous and tolerant face...
What's more, Xiao Siye is just a branch of the Xiao family. If he rebels, he will naturally kill the Yi clan, and no one in the family can survive. But now it is just a "fake imperial edict" with the nature of personal revenge, what more serious consequences will it cause?
As a result, even if they bite the bullet and refuse to let go, what will happen to the Xiao family?
