Li Siye sat next to the emperor, with their seats only about one foot apart. He picked up the wine cup from the table and paid homage to the saint frequently.
Li Longji smiled, picked up the golden wine in front of him, raised his head and drank it all in one gulp. He raised his head and winked at Gao Lishi who was standing next to him.
Slowly entering the hall from both sides, eight more musicians holding various musical instruments stood aside.
He noticed carefully that the leader of the dance was Xie Aman, a music camp general from Liyuan, and the accompaniments were also masters of musical instruments from Liyuan, including He Huaizhi who played the pipa, Zhang Yehu who played the konghou, and Li who played the drum.
Year of the Turtle. This surprised him. Have all the masters from the Liyuan arrived?
The emperor also smiled sideways and said to him: "You all know these people. They are all elites in the pear garden. They all have special skills and are very arrogant. They usually don't dance and play music for others. They just
Fatty Lian An does not have such an honor. Only you, as the music camp general of Liyuan, you have composed the music ordered by the general, and you have made such great contributions, you deserve such treatment."
Li Siye quickly crossed his hands and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty."
This group of people in the Liyuan was indeed a maverick. After the Limbo Dance, there was no need for the emperor to wave back, and they slowly exited the hall with dancing steps.
Li Longji seemed to be still immersed in the beauty of the music and paid little attention to the external changes. Li Siye clasped his hands lightly, and Xie Aman, who was at the back of the group as the lead dancer when he left, showed Li Siye a mysterious smile.
He held his chin with his hand and slowly tasted the wine. The beauty's smile gave him a feeling of being drunk.
Li Longji smiled and said: "The right minister who was sick at home just now was very excited when he heard that you had returned to Chang'an. He dragged his sick body and wrote me a memorial. He said that your achievements today are comparable to Huo Qubing, Wei Qing of the Han Dynasty.
Li Jing and Li Ji of the Taizong Dynasty, although the world is now stable, you have made great achievements in opening up and expanding the territory. You should enter Lingyan Pavilion to receive incense and worship, so that everyone in the world will know that today we in the Tang Dynasty also have famous generals."
Li Siye felt a strong sense of vigilance in his heart. If this memorial was written by someone else, it would be fine, but if it were written by Li Linfu, there would definitely be a powerful killer move behind him. Although he didn't know it now, he was afraid that he would take advantage of his complacency to relax.
When you are alert, this top-secret killer move will suddenly pop out.
However, this exquisite memorial can also reflect Li Linfu's ability to flatter people silently. He compared Li Siye to Wei Qing, Huo Qubing, and Li Jing and Li Ji. Isn't this a subtle way of praising Li Longji as comparable to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Taizong?
The emperor, the emperor secretly used it but did not point it out, enjoying the falseness of this reality.
Yang Guozhong, who was sitting below, followed the saint's words and echoed: "Your Majesty, Li Siye's outstanding achievements are comparable to those of King Lanling of the Northern Qi Dynasty and Chen Qingzhi of Daliang."
Li Siye pressed his hand on the wine table and pressed his fingers against the middle of the crowd, almost spitting out the wine in one gulp.
The emperor's face was indeed a little embarrassed. If he hadn't known that Yang Zhao himself had little talent and was a history illiteracy, he would have suspected him of bad intentions. The bosses of Lanling King Gao Changgong were Gao Zhan and Gao Wei, both of whom were favored and treacherous.
The other one is the ruler after the country’s subjugation, neither of them are good people. Who is Chen Qingzhi’s boss? Emperor Wu of Liang, Xiao Yan, was the founding king of Nanliang. In the early days of his rule, he paid attention to government affairs, corrected shortcomings, divided the clans, and favored the nobles. But in the later period,
He gradually became mediocre, believed in Buddhism, and neglected political affairs, which finally led to Hou Jing's rebellion.
Hey, I have to say, if you want to compare Li Longji to Liang Wu Emperor Xiao Yan, they are really similar. They both worked hard in the first half of their lives, and then gradually became dull and began to enjoy themselves in the second half of their lives. Moreover, they both experienced rebellions by minority generals. The former was Jie.
The latter is An Lushan, a Sogdian. The truth is hidden in Yang Guozhong’s words. It is indeed a prophecy from God.
Seeing that the emperor was not in a good mood, Yang Guozhong also realized that he had said the wrong thing, so he had to shut his mouth angrily.
Li Longji turned to Li Siye and said: "Siye, based on your achievements, it is not an exaggeration to be crowned a king now, but you are still young and strong, and you have a long time to come. Even if you have all the delicacies in the world, you cannot eat them all in one meal.
Therefore, I confer on you the title of Kaifu Yitong Sansi, the honorary title of Zhuguo, the portrait in Lingyan Pavilion, the title of British Duke, the settlement of 2,000 households, and the grant of 4,000 acres of land."
Li Siye quickly put down his wine glass, bowed and crossed his hands and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. Siye is willing to defend more territory and carry a heavier burden for Your Majesty."
He said this because he secretly asked the emperor to serve as the military governor of Hexi Province. Since last year, An Lushan has been the military governor of the three towns of Fanyang and Pinglu in Hedong. These three towns are border towns with high gold content, and their military strength is definitely not that of the north.
Ting Anxi is comparable. If he can take Hexi as well, and the elite and Beiting troops led by Anxi, and the Hexi armies form a military camp within the system to distinguish the Northeast Army of An Lushan and his group, this will be the pure Northwest
The army is gone.
Li Longji didn't know whether he didn't understand or had other plans. Before the official positions of Ge Shuhan and An Sishun were smoothly arranged, Li Siye felt that he still had a chance.
He took out a booklet from his arms and presented it to the saint with both hands. He raised his head and chest and said: "These are the soldiers and lieutenants who performed outstandingly in the expedition to the battle of Dashi in the river. Among them, four thousand soldiers are rewarded. The captain
Three hundred lieutenants can be given the rank of general, and the sage is asked to make a decision."
Li Longji put down the booklet, nodded in agreement and said: "That's right. According to the marching logs, the Anxi Army has experienced several battles, and they all won on the battlefield. They deserve such a reward. I have granted permission for all meritorious soldiers to advance together."
Honored officers, military cavalry officers, and all meritorious school officers will be sent to General Delang and General Zhonglang."
Li Siye quickly crossed his hands and said, "Siye would like to thank Your Majesty for the reward for many of the soldiers from Anxi."
Li Longji smiled and stroked his beard and said: "Soldiers who use their lives should be rewarded."
These generals were subject to the Tang Dynasty's twelve-turn system of honorary officers. For those who were awarded military honors, the scribes who accompanied the army on the battlefield or after the war would record the pre-war situation, the process of the war, and the results of victory or defeat.
At the same time, the number of enemies killed or captured by each officer and soldier must be recorded, and reported to the Ministry of Official Affairs of the Shangshu Province. Lang Zhong, Si Xun of the Ministry of Personnel, will repeatedly review and verify that it is true, and then draw up the official ranks, report them to the emperor, and wait for the official appointment.
According to the conditions before the war: those with fewer hits and more are called "entering the battle"; those with the same number of soldiers (including the number of soldiers and equipment) are "middle formation", those with more hits and fewer are called "down the battle". According to the result of the war: killed
Or capturing 40% of the enemy is called "upper harvest"; killing or capturing 20% of the enemy is called "middle harvest"; killing or capturing 10% of the enemy is called "lower harvest"
.
According to the pre-war conditions and the results of the war, the number of "turns" is drawn up. If you go into battle, the upper gain is five turns; if you go into battle, the middle gain is four turns; if you go into battle, the lower gain is three turns, and so on.
Honored officers do not have a position and do not do anything. They are just promoted. If an honorary officer wants to become an official and participate in politics, he must follow the regulations of family background and family background.
Li Siye crossed his arms again and said to the emperor: "In this expedition, there are generals Tian Zhen, Duan Xiushi, Cheng Qianli, Ma Li and others who are fighting bravely to take the lead. I ask your Majesty to promote them as appropriate."
