Chapter 207 Qi Bi He Li enters Beijing

Li Shimin's car drove through the last array, turned around and walked to Chengtian Gate to see the neat steps of the East Palace Liurui behind the prince's ceremonial guard. In addition to lamenting the hard training of Zhurui of the East Palace, the rest was the regret for Li Chengqian.

He cursed inwardly, it was really a product that could not hold four taels of spice oil in his belly. Isn’t there just a few outstanding generals?

I...

Although Li Shimin was very annoyed by Li Chengqian's actions, in his opinion, only Li Chengqian was showing off to him, and the children's things were limited.

But for the Tang Dynasty guards who were currently lined up in front of Anfu Gate, it was not as simple as blaming the Eastern Palace for showing off its power. A very realistic question was placed in front of them. How did they walk past Chengtian?

Because I found that no matter how I went, I would be compared by the guards of the Eastern Palace in front of me, these generals naturally hated the generals of the Eastern Palace even more...

After a review, the East Palace Liusu only followed Li Chengqian for a while, but gained countless envy, jealousy and hatred.

Of course, there are also some people who have different feelings. These people are the envoys of the barbarians of various vassal states and barbarians who were invited by the Tang Dynasty to watch the ceremony.

The Tang Dynasty has always defeated the cavalry of the northern nomadic peoples with footsteps.

For example, in the tenth year of Zhenguan, Li Shiji fought against Xue Yantuo in the south of the desert. The cavalry of the Tang Dynasty was defeated as soon as they contacted Xue Yantuo. Li Shiji ordered a horse and field battle, but he won the battle in one battle.

That's why Li Shimin proudly said that one thousand invaders in the Tang Dynasty are better than tens of thousands of barbarians. Why should I preach to them?

Those soldiers are just ordinary soldiers of the Tang Dynasty. Compared with the elite soldiers of the thousands of Eastern Palace Six Directions today, will each unit still have a way out in the future?

Seeing the atmosphere among the envoys of the vassal states, Xu Jingzong quietly said to Zhu Suiliang, "I saw that the Crown Prince was smart, and this move that was used to defeat others without fighting was really a superb level."

Zhu Suiliang looked at the envoys of the vassal states after hearing this, and then smiled slightly and said, "What is a small country in the vassal state? Today, the six routes of the Eastern Palace will make some people in the court honest. Think less about the idea of ​​having no king or father, and the court will be peaceful and peaceful in the world."

Zhang Chengxing, who was standing next to him, hurriedly said when he heard this, "It's exactly what happened in the past two years. Isn't it because--"

He stopped talking in time when he said this, but everyone knew what he wanted to say.

It’s nothing more than Li Chengqian’s injury to lead the army, which makes some people have thoughts they shouldn’t have…

Soon Li Shimin's carriage returned to Chengtian Gate. Li Shimin went to Chengtian Gate Tower and Yang Shidao led all the ministers to salute him. Li Shimin waved his hand lightly and said, "All the Lords are calm!"

Yang Shidao hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, don't be angry, just take a look at the face of the barbarians in the vassal state!"

Li Shimin looked over there after hearing this. Although it was a little far away, it could also be seen that the envoys of the vassal states were not in high spirits. He snorted coldly at Master Yang and said, "The Yang Qing family knew what Chengqian was going to do for a long time?"

When Yang Shidao heard this, he smiled bitterly and said, "If I had known what the crown prince was going to do, could I not advise you?"

It was Zhao Jie who just came to tell the old minister that it was the crown prince who just wanted to show his power in front of the envoys of the vassal states."

Li Shimin frowned and said, "What should he do to show the Six Directions of the East Palace in front of the vassal states?"

When Yang Shidao heard this, he was stunned and hurriedly said, "I don't know this minister!"

Li Shimin raised his hand and pointed at Yang Shidao helplessly. Just as he was about to remind him not to get involved in Li Chengqian in the future, he saw Li Daozong coming hurriedly.

Then he waved his hand and said, "No matter he is, I still have important things today." After that, he waved to let Li Daozong approach.

Li Shimin and his ministers walked into the hall of the Chengtian Gate Tower and discussed the next edict to inform the Tang Dynasty of the world of the Tang Dynasty to marry Xue Yantuo.

Li Chengqian also came to Chengtian Gate Tower. The ministers of the Eastern Palace met him and led him to a place far away from Li Shimin to sit down and rest.

Li Chengqian sat down and looked around and said, "Please come to Duke Wei." Then he looked at the envoys of various vassal states and asked the ministers, "Which one is Xue Yantuo's marriage proposal?"

"Go back to the crown prince, Xue Yantuo's marriage envoy is in the hall to see Your Majesty." Xu Jingzong hurriedly said.

Li Chengqian looked back at the palace on the city tower and asked, "How was Xue Yantuo's proposal just now?"

"Haha, once the Six Directions of the East Palace came out, the elite soldiers in the world were dissatisfied. Can the messenger Xue Yantuo look good?" The person who spoke was Li Jing, the Duke of Wei who walked up to Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian looked up at Li Jing with white beard and white hair and found that his face was rosy and energetic, and he looked more fairy-like than when he saw him last time.

Seeing Li Chengqian looking up at him, Li Jing hurriedly bowed and said, "My minister Li Jing will meet the prince! I will ask the prince to forgive me for being crazy and disobedient."

Li Chengqian stood up and helped him up and said, "Duke Wei does not need to be too polite."

When Li Jing got up, Li Chengqian turned around and sat down, and asked with a smile, "How is the Military and Political Academy now?"

Li Jing also smiled and said, "His Prince's personal inquiries, everything goes well in the Military and Political College, and I'll just wait for the autumn enrollment."

Li Chengqian was about to speak and saw Li Shiji going to Chengtian Gate Tower, and hurriedly signaled Liu Kui beside him to invite him too.

Li Shiji came to Li Chengqian with a wry smile, saluted Li Chengqian and stood there waiting for Li Chengqian to speak.

Li Chengqian said lightly, "Duke of Wei, Duke of England are both pillars of our Tang army."

Li Jing and Li Shiji were so busy that they said, "I dare not! I dare not..."

Li Chengqian knew that they were worried that Li Shimin would eat something and waved his hand to interrupt them and said, "Jiuru from the East Palace walked over in front of Chengtian Gate just now. What do you think?"

Li Jing smiled and said, "I just said that they are the elite soldiers in the world." Then he turned around and said to Li Shiji with a wry smile, "You haven't seen the faces of the barbarian envoys of various vassals. It's really more enjoyable than winning a battle."

Li Shiji nodded and smiled bitterly, and said solemnly, "Your Highness the Crown Prince personally trained the Sixth Route in the East Palace to be naturally a strong army."

"Since that's the case, the Ministry of War ordered the troops stationed in the world and the guards to train soldiers according to the training methods of the Eastern Palace?" Li Chengqian set out while the railway was hot.

Li Shiji felt embarrassed when he heard this, "Of course I am willing, but..., Your Highness, the following will want to wait until Your descending and Xue Yantuo's personal edict, and then return to the camp."

Li Chengqian thought for a while, understood what Li Shiji meant, and his eyes became stern and asked in a deep voice, "Don't they dare to walk past Chengtian Gate?"

Li Shiji sighed and said, "That's exactly what it means."

Seeing that Li Shiji had confirmed, Li Chengqian said directly, "You don't have to see Your Majesty. Tell them to know their shame and then be brave. Let them walk past Chengtian Gate according to the original arrangement. Next, they will train well and compete with the guards of the East Palace when the court formally exercises next year."

Before Li Shiji could speak, he heard Li Jing say directly, "Your Highness the Crown Prince said, how can the guards of the Tang Dynasty dare not even walk because they saw the Six Directions of the Eastern Palace?

Then what do the barbarians of the vassal states think of us?"

Li Jing's words were very loud in Zheng, showing the majesty of the military gods of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Shiji looked very embarrassed. He didn't want the Tang Dynasty guards to throw such a big man in front of civil and military officials and envoys of the vassal states. He didn't expect Li Chengqian to directly say a deeper reason.

After Li Jing's slightest explanation, he understood that Li Chengqian pulled out the East Six Palaces to compare with the guards and put pressure on training. If the guards do not walk in front of Chengtian Gate, how can he achieve what Li Chengqian said, "know the shame and be brave"?

Thinking of this, Li Shiji hurriedly bowed to Li Chengqian and said, "I understand, let's go and arrange it now."

"Go!"

Li Chengqian turned around and looked at Li Jing and said, "After the Wei Duke Military and Political Academy recruits students in the autumn, it must also be trained according to the training methods of the East Palace."

"I obey the order!"

--------------

The next day after the great martial arts performance in front of Tianmen, all the guards and horses in Chang'an City began to step up training, and the Ministry of War also issued regulations on training for soldiers in various offices in the Tang Dynasty.

For a time, the strong army trained by the Six-Rank of the East Palace became a topic of discussion among the entire Tang Dynasty and all small tribes near the Tang Dynasty.

Li Chengqian naturally became the center of all these topics.

But at this time, Li Chengqian did not pay attention to these things at all. He had been waiting for Qi Bi Heli to return to Chang'an, because only he had enough knowledge of Xue Yantuo and could persuade Li Shimin to give up the idea of ​​marrying Xue Yantuo.

On this day, Li Chengqian was leading the Crown Princess Su and Liangdi Wang to watch the show in Cheng'en Hall. Liu Kui quietly walked in and whispered beside Li Chengqian, "Go back to the Crown Prince, Qi Bi Heli has entered Chang'an."

"Summon him to the East Palace!" Li Chengqian ordered lightly.
