The Record of Swordsmen in the Late Sui and Early Tang Dynasties

Chapter 651 640: Accepted by the emperor, Wuji stands up

Chai Shao led five people around and visited Wei Zheng, Qin Shubao, Xu Maogong, Cheng Yaojin, Hou Junji, Luo Cheng and others in turn.

Everyone came to attend the enthronement ceremony of Li Yuan, and there was no conflict of interest between them, so naturally both parties were polite.

After visiting these people, the brothers went back to their room to rest!

In a few days, the time is right, and in the blink of an eye, the day of the emperor's ascension to the throne has arrived.

In the whole capital city, there are roads paved with loess and Jingshuibo Street. There are really colorful flags everywhere, and every household celebrates the festival!

The whole city is immersed in a piece of joy!

Surrounded by civil servants and military generals, Li Yuan ascended to the Ninth Five-Year Honor. The civil servants and military generals knelt down and shouted long live, the atmosphere was very warm.

After the worship of all the officials, Li Yuan granted civil and military titles to stabilize the government, Li Jian as the prince, in charge of the daily affairs of the court, and Li Shimin as the prince, responsible for continuing to wipe out the remnants of the anti-king forces in various places.

Li Yuanji was named Prince, responsible for helping Li Jiancheng take care of the daily affairs of the dynasty.

Feng Qin Qiong, Wei Zheng, Xu Maogong, Cheng Yaojin, Ma Sanbao, Liu Hongji, Chai Shao and others were made state princes.

Duan Changqing was granted the title of General Soldier of Taiyuan, responsible for the defense of Shanxi Province. Duan Changhong was granted the title of General Soldier of Datong Mansion, responsible for defending against the invasion of the northern Turks. Duan Changhao was named General Soldier of Shuozhou, responsible for defending the Turks outside Shuozhou .

Make his uncle Li Daozhong the prince and help Li Jiancheng manage the court affairs!
Tie Niu was granted the title of Duke of Jin, General of Dragon and Tiger, in charge of the soldiers and horses in Shanxi. Tie Niu ate [-] households and sat in Taiyuan Mansion.

In the end, Li Yuan looked at Duan Wuji and said with a smile: "Wuji! Among the civil and military affairs of the whole court, it is said that you have the greatest contribution!

If I also make you the Duke of the state, it seems a bit small, so let me make you a king!

What kind of king should I make you?In the past, you were the Xiaoyao General of the Great Sui Dynasty, so why don't I make you the Xiaoyao King!

However, you, the Xiaoyao King, are not the same as the Xiaoyao General of the Sui Dynasty!

In the past, your Xiaoyao General did not receive the salary of the court. He was an idler who was not in the ranks. Although he had a certain social status, it was very different from the Xiaoyao King I named you!

You, the happy king, eat the country's salary, you are a senior official, you don't need to join the king when you go up to the palace, and you don't need to resign from the king when you go down.

You can eat a thousand households, eh!In the short term, I won't assign you any specific duties, and you will be in charge of the country's military!
There is a difficult battle there, so you are responsible for supporting that part.

If there is no war in the country, you can enjoy yourself at home! "

Duan Wuji smiled wryly after hearing this.

"Your Majesty, this country was first established, and now the whole country is full of wars. This country is not peaceful yet. You say that I, the Happy King, can still be happy!

Let me see, I, the Happy King, have to fight for years! "

Li Yuan laughed and said: "Aren't you able to fight? If you say you don't go to fight, who can I send to fight?
I am in the Xinjian Dynasty, there are remnants of rebellion against the king inside, and the invasion of the Turkic people outside, if you don't go out, who can restrain them?
In my opinion, these wars in our country cannot be quelled in ten or twenty-two years.

In my court, who do you say can compare to you!You are young now, this martial art is probably unparalleled in the world!

You say you don't work for me, who will work for me!

Do not worry!I won't lose you. After you become famous, you will surely enjoy peace!
However, in this short period of time, you still have to work hard for me! "

Duan Wuji kowtowed upon hearing this.

"Your Majesty, I am willing to sacrifice my life for you to defend the safety of our Great Tang Dynasty. If there is such a war, I am willing to be the first to go out and keep our country prosperous and safe forever!"

"Okay! With your words, I can rest assured."

After your mansion is repaired, I will give you another good deed at that time. "

Duan Wuji was taken aback.

"Your Majesty, what's the matter? Can you tell me in advance?"

Li Yuan laughed when he heard this.

"Temporary secrecy, you will know when the time comes, and you can go happily when the time comes!

This is such a good thing that you can't even imagine in your dreams!

Just do it well for me!
Promise!It is said that your martial arts are the best, can you set up a ring in the capital!

Now the military generals from all walks of life have not left yet, you can learn martial arts with them for a while, how good it is for everyone to communicate with each other!

At that time, I will also go to see the excitement, do you think it will work? "

Duan Wuji thought for a while and said: "That's good! Let's just compete for five days. I will take this opportunity to meet people with excellent martial arts skills in the world. I will also gain a lot of knowledge."

Li Yuan laughed out loud.

"Okay, then let's make a deal like this, I will immediately order the soldiers to set up the arena in the afternoon, and I will also see the martial arts of our generals of the Tang Dynasty!
Everyone communicates with each other, which is good for everyone's martial arts improvement!

When the time comes, I will cheer you on the platform, what do you think?

Promise!Then don't embarrass me! "

Duan Wuji listened and nodded.

"Your Majesty, don't worry! Duan Wuji won't be defeated so easily!"

"Ah That's good!

good!I will now order someone to print the notice, and tell the generals of the Manchu Dynasty that the exchange of martial arts will start tomorrow.

Let's recruit some talented fighters for this new country tomorrow. "

Tie Niu kowtowed up.

"Your Majesty, I, Tieniu, would also like to go to the arena, so I should show my face there too."

Li Yuan nodded after listening!

"Well! Well then! I know you two brothers have the best relationship!

The two of you are on stage, it must be something to watch!

You go down to the palace first! "

The two of them walked down the Golden Palace and walked straight to the Chengxiang Mansion. Li Yuan led his family and moved to the palace, and the Chengxiang Mansion became the reception place for the officials.

Officials at all levels who came to the capital without mansions lived here for the time being.

When Duan Wuji and Tieniu came back here, many officials who came to Beijing came to visit one after another!

Most of these people who came here are military generals in this dynasty!

Everyone is a martial arts practitioner, and everyone has their own experience on the topic of spear dancing!

Everyone gathered in Duan Wuji's room, chatting about martial arts, everyone wanted to hear some other people's experience!

Qin Qiong looked at Duan Wuji and said: "Brother Wuji, among us, in terms of official positions, you should be the highest rank!

For those of us, the high-ranking ones are the Dukes of the state, and many people don't even seal the Dukes of the country!

We are also convinced of this. You have followed the emperor for the longest time, and the credit you have made is not insignificant!

Brother Wuji, when will you show us your kung fu!

We also learn from you. "

Duan Wuji laughed and said: "Second brother, we are all practicing martial arts. The emperor has already issued an order. Tomorrow, brother Tieniu and I will set up a ring in the capital to make friends with the best players in the world. If you want to communicate If not, let’s meet again on the ring!”

Qin Qiong nodded.

"That's good! Let's have a good chat on the ring tomorrow, buddies!"

After everyone heard this, they were gearing up one by one, and they were also preparing to try this section of Wuji's buddies' martial arts on the ring!
