Emperor Zhenguan

Chapter 340 Entering Jingzhao Stationed in Weinan
So far, Li Zhiyun has four sons and two daughters, namely Li Chengjing, the eldest son of the Yin family, Li Chengyan, the second son of Huaiyang, Li Chenglie, the third son of Wei Gui, the fourth son just given birth to Princess Chu, and the eldest daughter Bao Niang, Li Shuner, the eldest daughter of the concubine.

Starting from the second year of Wude, Li Zhiyun basically had a child a year.

Not long after, the three daughters Wei Gui, Huaiyang, and Yin Shi came in with their children to congratulate Princess Chu on the birth of a son.

The sisters talked and laughed, quite harmoniously.

Wei Gui asked with a smile: "Eldest sister, have you thought of a name for the baby?"

Concubine Chu said as it should: "Your Majesty is about to return to the imperial court, so the matter will be decided by His Majesty."

The names of the several children were all chosen by Li Zhiyun himself, and so was the legitimate son.After having a son, Yang's state of mind has also changed, and she herself still doesn't know how it has changed.

Yin Shi looked at the infant son-in-law with complicated eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.In the past, she was still complacent about giving birth to the eldest son of the king, but with the birth of Cheng Yan, Cheng Lie and other children, the joy in her heart disappeared.

At this moment, Concubine Wan Gui arrived.

"Meet my mother."

"Kowtow to grandma."

The daughters-in-law saluted her one after another, and several grandchildren also knelt and kowtowed obediently.Concubine Wan Gui had a graceful demeanor, said "Excuse me", and helped her grandchildren one by one, and immediately sat beside Princess Chu, and picked up the child.

"The little guy is really strong, just like when he was born." Concubine Wan Gui laughed happily while hugging her grandson.

She only has one son, Li Zhiyun, so she naturally remembers clearly what her son was like when he was born.Now she sees that her grandson looks like a son, and she is very happy.

In the past, she was dissatisfied with her daughter-in-law Yang's inability to give birth to a boy. The fault was that her daughter-in-law was not jealous and allowed her son to take concubines and give birth to several grandchildren.

Now that Princess Chu has given birth to a son, the shortcomings in her eyes have become advantages.

Princess Chu is sensible and filial, she manages the palace in an orderly manner, she is not jealous, she is really a good daughter-in-law.

After looking at her grandson for a while, Concubine Wan Gui ordered the female officials in the palace to present the rewards to Princess Chu one by one.

"The East China Sea luminous pearl, Sichuan brocade, jade and other treasures are specially given to you by the sage."

Concubine Chu is ice-snow smart and soon understood.

"It's all because the king has made great contributions to the court, and this concubine is ashamed to accept it."

Concubine Wan Gui was very pleased with her daughter-in-law's cleverness, and she said: "You can accept it with peace of mind. Goro has made great contributions this time, and you have given birth to a son for Goro. It is only natural to receive some rewards."

"Yes, my concubine, thank you, Aunt."

Yin and the others were a little envious. When they gave birth to their son, the rewards from the palace were not comparable to what was rewarded to Princess Chu this time.

Not to mention saints, even Concubine Wan Gui rewarded Princess Chu, which was much more than what was rewarded to them.

In September, the army crossed Pujin Pass, entered Jingzhao, and stationed in Weinan.

At this time, the servants in the palace delivered an order to temporarily let the army rest in Weinan, and at the same time ordered the clan generals Changping Wang Li Shuliang and Huaiyang King Li Daoxuan to come to reward the three armies.

"Uncle Huang, there are quite a few of you here this time." The crown prince squinted his eyes and looked at the Zuo Xiaowei soldiers behind Li Shuliang, there were hundreds of them.

Li Shuliang laughed, and said: "To tell you the truth, the Prince, after repelling Xieli this time, the sons of Zuo Xiaowei admired the Prince and the demeanor of the two Highnesses very much, and they all rushed to come and see the heroic appearance of the two Highnesses." , I can't refuse, hahaha."

"Yes." The prince grinned.

Immediately, Li Shuliang read out the imperial decree.

The words of commendation need not be expressed, and the specific rewards involved are not mentioned at all.This made everyone wonder why the sage suddenly became so stingy and only gave verbal encouragement.

Li Shuliang explained: "His Royal Highness, King Chu, King Qi, the sage said that he misses you very much and wants to see you as soon as possible, by the way."

Speaking of this, Li Shuliang paused slightly, and continued: "The old man also wants to see King Qin as soon as possible."

Hearing this, everyone immediately understood that it seemed that the saint was planning to wait until the Great Dynasty before rewarding the three armies.

Li Jiancheng nodded, "Sure, I don't know when Father wants us to leave?"

"The sooner the better." After Li Shuliang finished speaking, he added: "His Royal Highness, because of King Qin's death, the saint has been in poor health recently, and he is also worried about you. After all, King Qin has already left. You are safe and sound. As for the rewards, you don’t have to worry, when you come, the sage asked me to tell you that he will announce the rewards of the three armies during the mid-month dynasty, don’t worry.”

"Yes." Li Jiancheng nodded.

Immediately, Li Zhiyun and others dispersed, preparing to return to Chang'an with Li Shuliang.

During this visit, Li Shuliang was in charge of taking the prince and others into the palace to face the saint, and Li Daoxuan was in charge of rewarding the three armies.

Before Li Zhiyun could take two steps, Li Shuliang stepped forward to hold him, smiled and congratulated him, "Congratulations, Goro."

"What does the emperor mean?" Li Zhiyun was confused, and immediately realized that he couldn't help but secretly blamed Li Shuliang for not knowing the occasion and talking nonsense.Although he also knew that he had made a lot of contributions this time, there was no need to congratulate him in front of the prince and King Qi. Li Zhiyun didn't want to do exciting things now.

The prince and King Qi who were not far away stopped and listened carefully.They also wanted to know what reward the king of Chu would get this time.After all, the credit of King Chu cannot be denied.

Therefore, Li Zhiyun said with a smile: "It's really the big brother's effort to fight back Xieli, and Zhiyun only made a little effort."

Li Shuliang was stunned, and said: "You misunderstood, when I came, Mistress Wan in the palace asked me to tell you that Princess Chu gave birth to a son for you."

Li Zhiyun's pupils shrank slightly, and he was overjoyed immediately, "Really?!"

Li Shuliang smiled and said, "Of course it's true."

"Congratulations, Your Highness." Du Ruhui and others cupped their hands in congratulations.

Hearing the words, the crown prince and the king of Qi also gathered together to congratulate the king of Chu.

Li Zhiyun couldn't help but wish he could grow wings and fly back immediately.He had promised his wife before that he would definitely come back to watch the birth of the child, but he did not expect to break the contract.But fortunately, my wife gave birth to a son!
Thinking of this, Li Zhiyun felt relieved.

"Thank you very much."

After the episode, Li Zhiyun returned to the camp to tidy up briefly, and then prepared to return to Chang'an with Li Shuliang.

Halfway, Du Ruhui stopped him.

"What's the matter, Keming?"

Du Ruhui said: "Your Highness, Chang'an is just around the corner, but the sage asked us to station in Weinan and only summoned a few princes into the palace. Don't be careless about this matter."

Li Zhiyun narrowed his eyes and asked, "What do you mean?"

Du Ruhui said: "Obviously, the sage suspected that there was something wrong with King Qin's death, that's why he asked King Changping to take a few of his highnesses to the palace to meet the saint, and the king of Huaiyang to reward the army is also for monitoring, in case of accidents."

Li Zhiyun's face gradually became stiff, and he said: "You mean, the father is worried about the mutiny between the prince and the king of Qi, so he plans to act first?"

"Not necessarily." Du Ruhui said: "King Qin's death is unclear, and the crown prince is responsible for supporting Bingzhou. It is normal for the sage to have doubts without knowing the truth. The subordinates speculate that the sage is just guarding against the prince's changes. Palace, as long as your majesty is careful, you should be fine."

Li Zhiyun pursed his lips and said, "Okay, I will remember it."

Du Ruhui followed, "Let Yu Chigong and Qin Qiong follow His Highness, it will be safer."

"Yes." Li Zhiyun nodded.
