"This is really amazing. Judging from the description of the news of the good news, it is almost the second Xue Rengui. It seems that my Tang Dynasty is full of talents. With such a tiger general, why should I worry about the unfairness of the world?" Li Shimin looked at the news of the good news in his hand and laughed to the sky. His gray beard was also raised high, which was completely different from the angry look a few days ago.

When the civil and military officials in the hall saw Li Shimin's happy look, they all showed a comfortable expression. On the one hand, they did not have to worry about bearing Li Shimin's anger, and on the other hand, they were also happy about this great victory. It is said that Xi Junmai and others led their troops into the territory of Tubo, and even wanted to capture Songtsen Gampo alive. It is estimated that after this battle, even if Tubo is immortal, they will not dare to provoke the majesty of the Tang Dynasty in the future.

Li Xiu was also in the hall, and now his heart was quite uneasy, because he did not expect that the key figure who quelled the Tubo rebellion was Xi Junmai. Even if it weren't for this incident, he would have almost forgotten that there was such a legendary figure in the Tang Dynasty.

Xi Junmai is not as famous as Xue Rengui and others in history. There are not many records of him in history. It is nothing more than that he is good at using guns and sticks, skilled in bows and horses, and can draw strong bows with six stones. In addition, he is not even known about his birth and death date, and there is even only one front about him, but it is this front that is enough to keep his name in history.

In the original history, Xi Junmai was also a small Guoyi Commander. At that time, Tuyuhun had already joined the Tang Dynasty, so the Tang Dynasty began to station troops in Tuyuhun, and Xi Junmai was one of them. However, at that time, Tuyuhun was located between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo. Even if it joined the Tang Dynasty, there were still many people in China who met Tubo.

In this case, the Prime Minister of Tuyuhun, King Xuan, suddenly launched a rebellion and even wanted to hold Tuyuhun hostage and surrender to Tubo. At this time, Xi Junmai led his 120 cavalry and defeated King Xuan's tens of thousands of troops in one fell swoop, and even killed the three brothers of King Xuan himself. This battle immediately quelled the rebellion in Tuyuhun, and Xi Junmai also became famous in history with the hundreds of cavalry defeating tens of thousands of troops.

However, there is only one record of Xi Junmai in history. Even after this war, there was no record of how the imperial court rewarded it, which is a bit strange. So later some people speculated that although Xi Junmai made a great contribution, he might have sent troops without authorization. After all, he was just a small commander Guoyi, and there was a captain on it. Sending troops without authorization was a taboo in the army. Therefore, although he made great contributions, he did not receive much reward. He was only mentioned in history books and did not describe him much.

Now with Li Xiu's time travel, Tuyuhun did not surrender to the Tang Dynasty like in history, but was directly destroyed by Hou Junji and Cheng Yaojin with smallpox. One out of ten people in Tuyuhun was completely annexed by the Tang Dynasty. In this way, Xi Junmai naturally could not quell the rebellion as in history.

However, it was just in line with the saying that gold always shines. Although Xi Junmai failed to quell the Tuyuhun Rebellion as in history, he was not an ordinary person after all. When Tubo invaded the Tang Dynasty this time, he shone again, and also drilled through the army of tens of thousands of Tubo people with more than 100 cavalry. Although this was also due to the restraint of other Tang army, his performance was still very amazing, even comparable to Xue Rengui's performance in Goguryeo last time.

Thinking of the above, Li Xiu couldn't help but be happy. On the one hand, he was happy that such a powerful general appeared in the Tang Dynasty, and on the other hand, he was happy that after changing history, he did not bury Xi Junbu, a famous general. Unfortunately, Xi Junbu is now chasing Songtsen Gampo and entering Tubo. He doesn't know when he will come back, otherwise he must see him with his own eyes!

Such a big thing that Tubo invaded the border was solved like this. After Li Shimin was happy, he immediately sent someone to Songzhou to reward the three armies. Especially Xi Jun bought this hero, and he must go to Beijing to reward him personally.

What made Li Shimin even more happy was that Tubo returned from a crushing defeat this time, and even now the Tang army has entered Tubo, so there is no threat to the border. In this way, he can also go to Mount Tai with confidence to Fengshan. As for the aftermath, he does not need to deal with it himself. At most, he can send a minister to him. If he can catch Songtsen Gampo, it is better. If he can't catch it, then he will beat Tubo hard, at least to make them unable to relieve themselves for several years.

Today, Li Shimin summoned all the ministers to come over. On the one hand, he reported the news of the great defeat of Tubo, and on the other hand, he continued to discuss the matter of going to Mount Tai for Fengshan. Although it was delayed for a few days because of Tubo's border crimes, it didn't matter. Moreover, this great victory also gave Taishan a good omen, and at the same time strengthened Li Shimin's confidence.

Three days later, Li Shimin finally led all civil and military officials to leave Chang'an. Li Chengqian was in charge of Chang'an as the governor. However, although Li Shimin left Chang'an, most of the memorials sent from various places were still sent to him for handling. After all, Li Chengqian was just the crown prince and had no right to make decisions on some matters. In addition, Li Chengqian has made too much trouble in recent years, and Li Shimin's trust in him has also been reduced a lot.

It is also worth mentioning that I don’t know what Li Shimin thought, but he actually brought Li Tai with him. It seems that he planned to let him go to Mount Tai with him. The external explanation is that Li Tai’s fief is originally in Shandong, and Mount Tai is also in Li Tai’s fiefdom, so it is also necessary to be accompanied by him this time.

However, Li Xiu knew that it was not the case at all. I am afraid that Li Shimin would definitely be unhappy after he knew that Li Chengqian was worried about the reincarnation of the country, so he took Li Tai to Mount Tai with him. In this way, both sons benefited. At least on the surface, Li Shimin, the father, was not biased.

But Li Shimin forgot that he was not an ordinary father, but an emperor. This approach would not only not make his two sons feel fair, but would only deepen the rift between Li Chengqian and Li Tai. Especially Li Tai, Fengshan is of great significance. If Li Shimin brought Li Chengqian with him, it would be fine, but now he only brought Li Tai, which would only make Li Tai have greater delusions and strengthen his confidence in seizing the position of crown prince.

When Li Xiu thought of the above, he couldn't help but sigh. Although he knew that Li Shimin's actions were unwise, he could not persuade him, because Li Shimin was no longer the Li Shimin he was the one he had at the time. Especially after Empress Changsun passed away, Li Shimin became increasingly unacceptable to others' persuasion, so Li Xiu and Changsun Wuji also learned to keep a little while talking. Now Li Xiu has withdrawn from the court. In addition to Li Chengqian and the reason, it also has a lot to do with Li Shimin.
