Prosperous Tang Dynasty

Chapter 229 Concubine Yang's Daughter

The Bohai Kingdom had already been defeated and surrendered to the Tang Dynasty again. The reason was known, and it was not Li Fei's fault. Naturally, there was no need to send out the two imperial edicts that were originally drawn up.

Tang Xuanzong ordered someone to draw up another imperial decree for Li Fei.

As soon as the imperial decree left Chang'an City, Li Fei also led the army to escort the prisoners back to Liaoyang City.

In this battle with the Bohai Kingdom, the spoils Li Fei obtained were astonishing, mainly reflected in more than 5000 captives and tens of thousands of good horses.

The people of Liaoyang City lined the road and cheered. Since Li Fei came to Anton Protectorate, it not only brought them great changes in life, and made them gradually have no worries about food and clothing. Beating the Bohai Kingdom into submission also gave them great excitement mentally.

"Congratulations to Jiedu Envoy for returning with a great victory!" Du Fu, Mao Youde and other officials of the Protectorate were already waiting in front of the city gate to welcome Li Fei.

"Husband!"

"My husband!" Lin Shiyue and eldest grandson Lanxin also came up to welcome them. They were also very happy that Li Fei had returned with a big victory, and their anxiety was finally relieved.In fact, they didn't want Li Fei to go to the battlefield at all in their hearts, and the feeling of worry was uncomfortable, but many things were beyond their control, even Li Fei couldn't control it.

Khitan Princess Yangu and Yelucha were also on the side. Princess Yangu, Yelucha and Li Fei were still allies, but Li Fei was not 'friendly' to them two allies and forbade them to leave Liaoyang City.

Princess Yangu curled her lips and snorted at Li Fei. She was used to not giving Li Fei a good look.

However, watching Li Fei come back with such a great victory, and being welcomed by the people of Tang Dynasty in Anton, Princess Yangu thought of her father Khan.During his lifetime, Father Khan often went out to fight, and it was the same scene when he returned after a big victory.

"The captives will be settled by you first." Li Fei handed over the captives brought back to Lu Xin and Du Fu and others to make arrangements first.

"You two ladies, let's go home." Li Fei took his two beautiful wives back home.Pulling his two beautiful wives, Li Fei was very moved. He didn't want to lead troops to go to war to get these honors on the battlefield. He wanted to be a rich man in peace, but he couldn't help himself in this world. , could not help him not to do it.

When Li Fei returned to Liaoyang City, Youzhou City, An Lushan also got the news that Bohai Kingdom was defeated and surrendered.

This made An Lushan choke, speechless for a while.

It took him a long time before he slapped the desk in front of him on the ground angrily.

"How can the Bohai Kingdom be such a waste, with an army of [-], it can be defeated miserably by Li Fei in just a few days! It's a big deal for me!" An Lushan roared angrily.

He had already ordered his generals to get ready, and only waited for the order from the imperial court to send troops into Anton immediately.But now, everything was prepared in vain.Not only was he unable to seize the opportunity to control Anton's Protectorate, but he might not even be able to ask the court for more weapons, food and grass.

Although angry, An Lushan could do nothing.

About eight days later, Tang Xuanzong's imperial decree arrived at the Anton Governor's Mansion.

"Following the heavens, the emperor ordered--"

"Your Majesty Li Fei accepts the decree, thank you for your grace!" Li Fei respectfully received the decree.

Tang Xuanzong greatly praised Li Fei's meritorious service and bravery in the imperial decree, restored Li Fei's title of Wu Guogong, and added an official position to Li Fei, Prince Shaobao!Although it was only an honorary position, and he would not receive much salary every month, but he was a senior official of the second rank, and the symbolic meaning in it was significant, which was equivalent to confirming that he was an important team member for the future crown prince's succession.

Li Fei seems to be only 21 years old this year. Wu Guogong, Prince Shaobao, such titles can make people envious.

In addition to restoring the title and conferring official positions, there are also rewards such as some gold, silver and cloth.

To be honest, upon receiving this imperial decree, Li Fei still had some doubts in his heart.

Judging from the fact that the tone of the imperial decree is not as severe and generous as before, Tang Xuanzong's psychology is somewhat unclear to him.It stands to reason that because he had reported on An Lushan's attempt to rebel, it was equivalent to slapping Tang Xuanzong in the face. Tang Xuanzong hated him in his heart. The last time he attacked the Khitan King City was definitely a great achievement, but Tang Xuanzong only He was rewarded with some gold, silver and cloth. This time the credit may be greater, but Tang Xuanzong was too generous.

Unless his impression in Tang Xuanzong's heart has completely changed!

Li Fei pondered for a while, and finally got some clues, and a bright light flashed in his eyes.

On the first day of August in the 13th year of Tianbao in the Tang Dynasty, a major event quickly spread throughout the Tang Dynasty. Concubine Yang gave birth to a princess safely. She was the only biological child of Concubine Yang and also the youngest daughter of Tang Xuanzong.

Tang Xuanzong was overjoyed when he got the news, and laughed for half an hour.

Few people know that at the moment when he learned that Yang Guifei gave birth to a daughter, a big stone in Tang Xuanzong's heart fell to the ground.

Not only the big stone in Tang Xuanzong's heart fell to the ground, but also the big stone in Prince Li Heng's heart fell to the ground.

Even if Concubine Yang gave birth to a son, it was just a breastfeeding child. If he wanted to really threaten Li Heng's crown prince, he had to grow up anyway. Tang Xuanzong was already over sixty years old, who knows how many more years he can last.However, after being framed several times by Li Linfu and Yang Guozhong, Li Heng was already frightened, and the slightest movement could make him uneasy.

It's all right now, it's a daughter, no matter how powerful the Yang family is, they can't support a princess to snatch his crown prince.

Compared to Prince Li Heng's ease, Yang Guozhong's face turned dark.

Although Concubine Yang, no matter whether she gave birth to a princess or a prince, can stop the mouths of those clans, so that they can no longer obstruct them with the excuse that Concubine Yang has no children and cannot be a queen, but the prince is better than the princess anyway, and it is possible to help her in the future. Ascension to the throne will further enhance the reputation of his Yang family.

Disappointment is disappointment, but Yang Guozhong's plan to take the opportunity to help Concubine Yang on the throne of queen remains unchanged.

On the other hand, overjoyed, Tang Xuanzong bestowed the title of 'Li Jue' on Yang Guifei's daughter and the title 'Princess Yongping', sealing two thousand households!You know, in the early Tang Dynasty, the real seal of the princess was [-] households, and later it was changed to [-] households. Ten years ago, Tang Xuanzong changed it to [-] households.But he gave two thousand households to Princess Yongping, the daughter of Concubine Yang, which is twice as much as that of ordinary princesses.

"It's been a long time since Lushan came to Chang'an since he pacified the Xi and Khitan tribes. I miss him too. Taking this opportunity, I'll let Lushan come back and see my little daughter. His' Righteous sister'." Tang Xuanzong said very kindly.

Anyone who heard his tone would think that he still had deep trust in An Lushan, as if he simply wanted An Lushan to come to Chang'an City.

However, when Tang Xuanzong's will was conveyed to Youzhou City, what was An Lushan's reaction?
