Datang: Ten Years of Proton, Leading an Army of Millions to Return

Pei Ji, Xiao Yu and others were standing on the city wall. To be honest, their palms were full of sweat.

What exactly happened in Jiannan Road?
This news, damn it, they were extremely sure in their hearts that it was absolutely fake. However, various news were flying around in the past few days, making the people from the aristocratic families almost angry to death.

The whole city was buzzing with the news, and they couldn't suppress it even if they wanted to.

But, this is absolutely impossible!
What a joke! The defense line of Jiannan Road was as solid as a rock. The Tang Dynasty had fought for more than ten days but failed to take it down. They only advanced three checkpoints.

And then, one day can change everything?
What are you thinking?

Even if a god came, he couldn't do it.

However, this group of people actually believed in such fake news that can be seen through at a glance.

Pei Ji also took a deep breath.

beside,

Xiao Yu turned his head to look at him, smiled as if he was relaxed, and then nodded.

He was telling Pei Ji,

Relax, you will have to make fun of Li Shimin later.

Pei Ji also smiled back.

indeed!

They have to see the joke!

Damn Li Shimin, he actually dared to use such fake news to deceive everyone, they absolutely cannot let Li Shimin have an easy time.

Today, Li Shimin and his army going out to fight must be completely humiliated.

snort!
This is an attempt to deceive the world and save face for oneself, but you are overthinking it!

Pei Ji thought to himself, let out a long breath, his eyes filled with burning flames.

now,

In fact, it was not just him. Almost all the important officials of the aristocratic families had the same idea.

Li Shimin, do you want to be decent?

Do you want to maintain your dignity?
Ah!
But you actually used such despicable means and said that all our children were chopped off by you?

Just wait and see, we will not let you succeed!
……

Outside Chang'an.

Above officialdom.

Li Shimin sat on horseback with a sharp gaze, and as he got closer to Chang'an City, his breathing became more rapid.

The morning sun in the east has begun to rise slowly.

Although it has not yet completely jumped out of the skyline, the large clouds in the east are already reflecting a dazzling golden color! !

Today is a sunny day.

"Your Majesty, we will reach Chang'an City in half an hour."

"Just now, an official from the Ministry of Rites came over to confirm the time."

"The Emperor, the Empress, and the assistant machine, Xuan Cheng and the others are already waiting."

"It is said that the whole city hardly rested last night. The people of Chang'an City have already filled the city gates."

Fang Xuanling said with a smile.

He looked up and ahead.

Although Chang'an City is not visible yet.

However, it seemed that one could faintly hear the joy coming from the direction of Chang'an City.

"Needless to say, Your Majesty, the people will definitely be extremely excited this time."

"I estimate that many people are still full of doubts."

"As for Pei Ji, Xiao Yu and the others, they are probably still laughing at us in their hearts. They are all smart people, and they have a lot of intelligence in their hands. They know that it is absolutely impossible for us to do this if we follow the normal trajectory."

"Perhaps, these people are just waiting to see us make a fool of ourselves."

"I really don't know what they will think after seeing the heads of Lawyer Pei, Li Shuyan and others."

Qin Qiong echoed.

"Yes, Your Majesty. By that time, I'm afraid the whole Chang'an will be in an uproar, and Pei Ji and the others won't even be able to cry." Yuchi Jingde also said with a smile.

Cheng Yaojin and Li Jing and others stayed behind temporarily, as they were going to lead the second batch of troops to return.

Li Shimin nodded.

He stretched hard.

"They... humph!"

"A bunch of old fools! How dare they do such a treasonous thing behind my back? If it weren't for Dayan, I'm really afraid that Jiannan Road would really fall into the hands of the aristocratic families."

"Damn it, Jiannandao, I'd rather give it to Dayan than to them."

"This is all their own fault, they deserve it!"

"This time, I will definitely make them understand that their aristocratic families are nothing anymore. There is no other way except to be completely bound to me. Forget about all these little tricks in the future!"

Li Shimin said sinisterly.

Everyone around laughed.

The sun is coming out.

The world is fresh and clean.

It was at this time that Li Shimin and his men saw that on both sides of the official road ahead there were already people welcoming them.

Look over there,
It is dozens of miles away from Mingde Gate.

"It's really your Majesty. Long live your Majesty. Long live your Majesty! Your Majesty, where is Songtsen Gampo's head? Where is the head of the rebels in Jiannan Road?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, has Jiannan Road been taken back? Your Majesty, we want to see Songtsen Gampo's head!"

"Your Majesty, thank you for your hard work. All the soldiers, thank you for your hard work. We didn't expect to win. We all felt that we were going to lose before."

"Hahaha, Your Majesty, please raise your head! Your Majesty, we want to see the heads of the Tibetan Chanyu and those rebels. Your Majesty, please show them. Your Majesty, is this true?"

"..."

All of a sudden, countless people were in an uproar.

And instantly, the first thing they wanted to see was the head!
no way!
The people of Chang'an City have been looking forward to these things for a long time.

They want to know if it is true!

all of these,
It’s so magical and dreamy!

Li Shimin gently shook the reins of the warhorse in his hand, looked left and right at the excited expressions of the people on both sides, listened to the words shouted by the people, and waved his hand gently.

Immediately, the carriage following behind was pulled up.

There was a large box on the carriage.

The carriage led the way and Li Shimin followed behind.

"Wow, such a big box? Your Majesty didn't put all the heads in this box."

"Oh my god, how many people would it take to fill such a big box? Dozens, maybe! Almost a hundred!"

"Gudong! Is this true? Damn, this is too cruel. This... Your Majesty is really tough this time. Our Tang Dynasty is also really tough. Ever since the Yan Dynasty occupied Hebei Province and Hedong Province, our Tang Dynasty has retreated again and again and endured again and again. I used to think that our Tang Dynasty was too weak, but this time, so many rebels' heads have been cut off. My goodness, if this is true, Your Majesty is really amazing."

"Who said it wasn't? It's such a big box. Damn it. But why doesn't Your Majesty open it?"

"What do you want to open? We can't see it even if we open it. Why are you in such a hurry? Since Your Majesty has brought the head here, didn't you say that it should be hung on the city wall? Only then can we see it clearly. Even if we open it now, we can't see it clearly."

"Go, go, go, keep up, keep up, keep up quickly!"

"..."

Along the way, wherever the carriage passed, the people went crazy.

To be honest, they had never seen such a scene before.

A box of heads!

Be nice!

It’s so exciting, it’s really so exciting!
The distance is getting closer.

Chang'an City is right before our eyes.

At this moment, Li Yuan, Empress Changsun, Pei Ji and others had already come down from the imperial city.

Standing together in front of Mingde Gate,

He was wearing official uniform, holding a tablet, and had a stern expression.

Even from such a distance, the corners of my eyes couldn't help but tremble.

That is….
Gudong! ! !

Especially the important officials of the aristocratic families, they looked at each other, even though they had always insisted that the rumor was false, but now they were subconsciously nervous.

Pei Ji pursed his cracked lips, gritted his teeth, and swore in his heart that he would embarrass Li Shimin.

With the support of Empress Changsun, Li Yuan slowly walked forward.

Officials from the Ministry of Rites also started the process.

"Long live His Majesty! Long live the Tang Dynasty! Welcome His Majesty back to the court!"

"Long live His Majesty! Long live the Tang Dynasty! Welcome His Majesty back to the court!"

"Long live His Majesty! Long live the Tang Dynasty! Welcome His Majesty back to the court!"

"..."

When all the ceremonies were completed, Changsun Wuji, Wei Zheng, Pei Ji and the others knelt down while shouting.

"Hahaha!"

"My dear ministers, please stand up!"

"During the time I was away from Chang'an, I was able to fight this battle thanks to the assistance of all of you gentlemen!"

"I also want to thank you."

Li Shimin said with a smile.

He emphasized the word "support" especially.

"Your Majesty, I deserve to die! I have failed to live up to your high expectations and I dare not accept your thanks."

Changsun Wuji did not stand up. He knelt on the ground, his voice hoarse.

"Your Majesty, long live this sinner! Please punish me!" Wei Zheng also echoed.

Pei Ji, Xiao Yu and others stood up, glanced at the two people next to them, smiled slightly, but did not speak.

"OK OK."

"Thank you for your hard work, my two beloved ministers."

"I have won, the Tang Dynasty has won, what crime have you committed?"

"Get up quickly."

Li Shimin shouted loudly.

Pei Ji rolled his eyes.
He, Xiao Yu and others looked at each other silently.

The next moment, Pei Ji walked out.

"Your Majesty, I congratulate you on your great victory."

"In the past few days, the news of your majesty's great victory has spread throughout the city and the world. In particular, it was said that your majesty had captured the heads of the Tibetan Chanyu Songtsen Gampo and the rebels in Jiannan Road. Countless people heard about it and stayed awake all night."

"Of course, including me, we all want to see what these rebels look like."

"Your Majesty, now that Your Majesty has returned to the court and the people are all present, why don't you open the head and let the people take a good look?"

Pei Ji requested loudly.

"Yes, Your Majesty, now is the time."

“Celebrate all night long!”

"Your Majesty, please open the box!"

Xiao Yu couldn't wait to say it.

"Your Majesty, this head must be hung on the city gate and displayed for several days. Only in this way can the majesty of our Tang Dynasty be demonstrated!"

"After all, the Tubo is far away from home, but Your Majesty was able to defeat Luoshui City in two days. I admire you, and so do the people of the world! Even the Emperor Qin and Emperor Wu of Han could not achieve such a record. Your Majesty, please show us your achievements."

"Otherwise, there will probably be criticism among the people, Your Majesty."

"In the past few days, the people have been quite suspicious about this matter. Many people even said that Your Majesty used the heads of our own soldiers to replace the heads of the enemy. Your Majesty, now is the time to crush these suspicions!"

What other aristocratic officials said was also decisive.

Suddenly, many officials echoed.

Their eyes were fixed on the big box, and they were ready to attack Li Shimin.

They still absolutely would not believe that the box really contained the heads of the direct descendants of the aristocratic family.

How can it be?

Impossible to think about!

"Yes, Your Majesty, open it, Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty, please open it!"

"..."

Countless people also shouted excitedly.

Li Shimin smiled.

He narrowed his eyes, looked at Pei Ji, looked at Xiao Yu, and then looked at the many important officials from aristocratic families among the group of officials.

He is smiling happily now.

"That's it."

"Master Pei, Master Xiao, Master Wang, how about the three of you come and open the box?"

Li Shimin said directly.

The first look on these people's faces after they opened the box was exactly what he wanted.

It was just right, too, to let them see their son's head and make them understand clearly that there was no place for their aristocratic family in this world anymore.

The aristocratic families are no longer without rivals as they once were.

Now, there is Da Yan.

Dayan killed them without any hesitation.

It just so happens that we can take advantage of this opportunity to let the aristocratic families focus all their attention on dealing with Dayan, so that they don't have to play these little tricks behind the scenes every day.

Ha ha ha.

Killing two birds with one stone is really a relief.

Li Shimin narrowed his eyes and looked at the three people in the crowd, with a smile on his face, extremely gentle.

Pei Ji, Xiao Yu, and Wang Gui looked at each other.

There was a hint of secret joy in the depths of his eyes.
This is a great opportunity!

At that time, he could directly expose Li Shimin's tricks, tell the people of the world the truth, and expose Li Shimin's deceptive tactics that he wanted to use to gain glory!
in this way,

Li Shimin's majesty would certainly be greatly reduced.

The majesty of the imperial court will certainly be greatly reduced, and the status of the Sixteen Guards Army of the Tang Dynasty, which was said to be invincible, will certainly be greatly reduced.

By then, the entire Tang Dynasty will be completely controlled by the aristocratic families.

At this time, Da Yan is eyeing the north covetously, and the aristocratic families should also consolidate their power and cooperate with Jiannan Dao to find a suitable and correct way out for the aristocratic families in this great change.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

"Thank you for this opportunity, Your Majesty. I thank you, old minister."

"Your Majesty is truly concerned about me. Thank you for your concern. If so, we will obey your orders."

Pei Ji and the other two all walked out with a smile.

Changsun Wuji and Wei Zheng stood nearby, with envy in their eyes.

Now everyone knows that this box is extremely important to the Tang Dynasty. Everyone's eyes are on this box. It is definitely a huge honor to be selected to be unboxed and displayed.

This is the credit...
They both sighed in their hearts, with a hint of gloom in their eyes.
