Tanabata Diva Concert: Happy Breakup

On the way back to the palace, Zheng Zhengjin said to the two generals, "Generals, can you tell me how you two won such a great victory in this battle? I am just curious and want to know."

This battle has been won, so there is no need to hide anything. Li Jing said, "Since Your Highness Prince Xian wants to hear us two old guys bragging, then we will tell you everything we know."

"It's like this. When General Li Ji and I received the secret order from His Majesty, we couldn't believe it. Jie Li Khan actually led 200,000 troops to attack Chang'an from Wugong and headed straight for the Wei River. But when we saw the news that Your Highness had killed 20,000 enemy bandits in Jingyang, we were very excited. As for His Majesty's suggestion that we take Dingxiang, General Li and I divided our forces into two groups.

I ordered 3,000 soldiers to launch a surprise attack on Dingxiang City. There were also many of my men in the city, so it was easy to enter the city. In fact, there were few soldiers in Dingxiang City, so this battle was quite easy. "

Zheng Zhengjin originally thought that there was some earth-shattering tactic, and then just like that, it was so easy to capture Dingxiang City. Zheng Zhengjin was almost shocked.

Li Dao Zong and Li Xiao Gong were also military commanders, but they had different ideas. They were the tactics given by Li Jing. For example, why were there his people in Dingxiang City, and how many of them were there?

Today, Li Jing and Li Ji were specially allowed by Li Shimin to enter the palace in military uniforms.

In the Taiji Hall, Li Shimin smiled as he held the box presented to him by Empress Xiao. Inside was the imperial seal.

"Li Jing and Li Ji captured many Turkic people, as well as countless cattle, sheep and horses in the Dingxiang battle. They successfully drove the Turkic people out of Dingxiang and recovered the lost territory. Li Jing was granted the title of Duke of Weiguo.
Feng, Li Ji, Duke of Ying. (As for the others, I won’t describe them.)”

"Thank you, sir." The two generals were very grateful, especially Li Jing. Li Jing had never lost a battle in his life. When Li Yuan wanted to chop off his head, it was Li Shimin who pleaded for him and he was spared.

There was joy in Taiji Hall, after all, Li Jing and Li Ji had made great military achievements.

Li Shimin was certainly the kind of person who trusted people he employed and would not employ people he doubted.

But at this time, someone stood up and asked: "Your Majesty, in this case, how should we place the more than 100,000 prisoners?"

Li Shimin glanced at him and said calmly: "Isn't there an example of the Turkic soldiers before? They dig coal, and I provide food. As a foreign race, if you invade my Central Plains Dynasty, you must be prepared to be defeated and captured."

"Your Majesty is wise," he did not dare to plead for mercy to the Turkic captives at this moment. After all, he was sure that if he pleaded for mercy, he would definitely be attacked on his way back from the court.

Feng Deyi had been released from house arrest. He stood up in the court and said loudly, "Your Majesty, I impeach Li Jing, the Duke of Wei."

"Puchi, sorry, don't look at me, I didn't mean it." Zheng Zhengjin laughed out loud at Feng Deyi's impeachment.

Li Shimin ignored Zheng Zhengjin and looked at Feng Deyi meaningfully and said, "My dear Feng, what has Li Jing done wrong?"

"Duke Weiguo, when Dingxiang City was captured, Li Jing allowed his men to rob the people in the city. I believe they should be severely punished." Feng Deyi actually wanted to make his presence felt and consolidate his position. He also wanted to arrange for his own people to enter the military.

"Li Jing, is this true?" Li Shimin, sitting on the dragon throne, asked with narrowed brows.

Li Jing stood up directly without explaining anything, and said directly: "I accept the punishment."

He did it to defile himself.

Li Shimin slammed the dragon table and said angrily, "Then I will deduct 500 yuan from your food and fine you two months' salary." Li Jing immediately thanked him and said, "Thank you for your grace."

Feng Deyi's face was red with anger. That's it? He impeached a piece of shit.

At this moment, the prime minister, Xiao Yu, stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I would like to go to the Fahua Temple to fulfill my vow. May I ask for Your Majesty's permission?"

"Xiao Yu, you? Are you confused? That Fahua Temple is a place for those bald scums, and you actually want to go there to fulfill a vow?" Changsun Wuji was a little bit unconvinced, as these words were said by Xiao Yu.

Because the Fahua Temple had been sealed off by Li Shimin long ago, it was difficult for Xiao Yu to even get close to it, let alone fulfill his vow.

Li Shimin slapped the dragon table and said, "Xiao Yu, do you know what you are doing? What are you talking about?"

"Your Majesty, I know that I made a wish to Buddha. Now that my sister has returned, I want to fulfill this wish." Xiao Yu said sincerely.

Zheng Zhengjin stood up again: "Your Majesty, I want to impeach the prime minister Xiao Yu, he is ungrateful."

The topic of Zheng Zhengjin's impeachment was quite fierce.

Who will play with such an ungrateful person in the future?

"Your Highness Prince Xian, please tell me where I have been ungrateful." Xiao Yu was also stunned by Zheng Zhengjin's impeachment.

Li Shimin also looked at Zheng Zhengjin meaningfully, because he always felt that it was definitely not a simple matter for this kid to go to court today.

"The former Queen of Sui, Xiao, is your elder sister, right? Xiao Yu, answer me." Zheng Zhengjin asked sternly.

"Yes, Your Highness,

"Who rescued Xiao and brought her back to Chang'an?" As soon as Zheng Zhengjin said this, everyone began to think about it. Wasn't it Li Jing who Xiao Yu should thank? What the hell was going to Fahua Temple?

"Of course it was General Li Jing who brought it back."

"General Li Jing is a general of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. So, is this how you treat the benefactor who saved your sister? Those bald monks in Fahua Temple did nothing, but they want your incense. It's really funny. If I were you, I would go home and worship General Li Jing's portrait." After Zheng Zhengjin finished speaking, Xiao Yu's face flushed. He didn't know what to say. He just felt that he was indeed ungrateful according to what Zheng Zhengjin said.

But Li Jing looked at Zheng Zhengjin with a gloomy face and whispered: "Well, Your Highness Prince Xian, I am still alive, please don't make it so scary." What do you mean by putting him on display? He is still alive and well.

Xiao Yu was a little depressed by Zheng Zhengjin's words. He was upset. But his sister was just rescued by Li Jing, and it was indeed thanks to Li Jing. Otherwise, when Li Jing was in Dingxiang, he would have killed his sister on the pretext of chaos and disorder. Where would he go to cry?

Li Shimin, who was sitting on the dragon throne, suddenly became interested and asked Zheng Zhengjin, "Boy, do you believe in Buddhism?"

"Your Majesty, I don't believe what those bald donkeys did. You must have seen it with your own eyes. Moreover, if the dozens of female skeletons in the back mountain of Fahua Temple cannot explain the problem, then those children who were rescued from the underground palace by everyone's own eyes. Minister Xiao has the nerve to fulfill his vow in such a filthy place. So, has he forgotten some things about his ancestors?" Zheng Zhengjin's words were very sharp.
