Chapter 165: The Family Banquet (I)
"For Goguryeo, I am determined to win, if I can reduce the loss of soldiers, I am naturally happy, since you have a way, then let Jinyiwei go to Liaodong." His Majesty Li Er said: "Xue Rengui has been in a stalemate with Pyongyang City in Liaodong for so long, and it is indeed time to break this balance, just remember, everything must not be greedy for merit, now the situation in Liaodong is tense, and the situation in the land of Sanhan is complicated, so let Jinyiwei always contact the Hundred Cavalry Division, and I also need to know the exact news in Pyongyang." ”
"Yes." Xuan Shijing replied.
Goguryeo is a thorn in the coffin of His Majesty Li Er, the last time the imperial driver personally went to Liaodong, although the Liaodong City and Anshi City were recovered, and the Liaodong Peninsula was also included in the territory of the Tang Dynasty, but it did not break through the city of Pyongyang, which was not successful, it was not perfect, several cities on the Liaodong Peninsula were originally the land of the Central Plains Dynasty, and they were originally the territory of the Han people, and now they are only taking back what originally belonged to them, but the interest for so many years has not been claimed.
And this interest can only be enough if the city of Pyongyang is conquered and Samhan is pacified.
"If Jinyiwei is in Liaodong this time, he has no merits, and after he comes back, he will disperse." His Majesty Li Er said: "You have now started a family, and in this court, there is a place where you can do things, and there is no need to be limited to a Shenhou Mansion, do you understand?" ”
"I understand."
When His Majesty Li Er said this, Xuan Shijing pondered carefully, if he has any credit next time, I am afraid that the right to open the mansion will be withdrawn, and it will be counted together with his previous military achievements in Liaodong, which is to be promoted.
Either a promotion, or a promotion.
After this year, Xuan Shijing is already twenty years old, and according to the Tang system, he can inherit the title of his father Xuan Mingde, that is to say, it is estimated that it will not take long for the title of Marquis of Dongshan to be replaced by the Duke of Jin.
Up to now, the title is not so easy to get, and the reason why Xuan Shijing thinks so is also for a reason, Xuan Mingde has not enjoyed the treatment that a day of Guogong should be, and his merits cannot be erased, and Xuan Shijing's military exploits in Liaodong cannot be erased, not to mention that following Jiangxia King Li Daozong as the vanguard of the two cities, that is, after attacking Liaodong City and Anshi City, Xuan Shijing's role in it cannot be underestimated, plus before the trip to Liaodong, Xuan Shijing handed over the gunpowder weapon to the imperial court, all kinds of merits, to the age, It's also time for reckoning.
If you have merit, you will be rewarded, and if you have a fault, you will be punished, this is Your Majesty Li Er, and not rewarding for a while does not mean that Your Majesty Li Er has forgotten these things.
After all, Xuan Shijing was only in his early sixteenth year.
"Okay, you can step back first, and the family banquet over there in the Lin De Hall will also start in a while." His Majesty Li Er waved his hand and motioned for Xuan Shijing to retreat.
Xuan Shijing bowed down and withdrew from the Ganlu Palace, standing in front of the Ganlu Palace, looking at the majestic palace.
Jinyi Wei Shenhou Mansion
It's a temporary scenery, but it's not a long-term solution after all, and now it's okay, I went to Liaodong, and with the Jinyiwei itself, I am not afraid that there will be no place to stay.
In recent years, there have been occasional correspondence between Xue Rengui and Xuan Shijing, most of which were brought over by Xue Rengui when he sent letters from Liaodong to Chang'an.
For Liaodong, Xuan Shijing now also knows nothing, after all, he has not been in contact for several years, only knows that Xue Rengui led soldiers to reclaim land in Liaodong, tuntian, and the grain collected was used for military tun as military food and military resources in addition to taxes, so in recent years, Guanzhong has not sent any materials to Liaodong, and Xue Rengui and a group of soldiers have still lived in Liaodong.
His Majesty Li Er is right, now Liaodong is gradually stabilizing, and it is the Tang army that is stable, but there is a stalemate between the Tang army and Pyongyang City, plus Silla Baekje is sandwiched in the middle, and there is a Gao Huanquan in the middle, what is missing is an opportunity to break the balance.
And Jinyiwei went to Liaodong to act as an opportunity.
Approaching noon, the Lin De Hall gradually became lively, when the tables and tables were placed neatly, many members of the royal family also came to the Lin De Palace, according to their status, under the arrangement of Deyi.
Xuan Shijing and Jin Yang's seats are not too far away from His Majesty Li Er, who makes His Majesty Li Er love Jin Yang, this kind of family banquet, in addition to identity and seniority, depends on the preferences of the Son of Heaven.
Xuan Shijing and Jin Yang sat side by side, and the top was the crown prince Li Chengqian, and Li Chengqian sat on the left and right of the crown princess Su and the prince Liangdi Hou.
The two brothers Li Tai and Li Ke sat behind Li Chengqian, and opposite Xuan Shijing were the other princes and princes in the royal family, most of whom were Li Yuan's sons, and the brothers of His Majesty Li Er.
His Majesty Li Er and Empress Changsun walked from the back to the front with the support of the palace people, and sat down, and everyone in the hall got up and bowed to the emperor and queen.
His Majesty Li Er raised his hand and held it up: "No need to be polite." Then he sat down and said, "Today is a family feast, and there is no need for a family." ”
"Yes." The crowd gave up.
This is just His Majesty Li Er's casual words, and everyone casually agrees, and no one will take the polite words on the scene seriously.
The banquet in the Lin De Hall is the most indispensable song and dance, and it is His Majesty Li Er who chats with many royal families about family life, and the royal family, taking advantage of this opportunity, also has a lot of movement.
"What are you talking about with the queen mother in the Lizheng Hall this morning?" Xuan Shijing had nothing to do, so he simply chatted with his daughter-in-law next to him.
"It's all private talk, but it's inconvenient for the husband to inquire, but there is one thing related to the husband." Jin Yang said with a smile.
"Oh? What's up? Xuan Shijing asked curiously.
Jin Yang smiled and glanced at Xuan Shijing: "Naturally, it is a matter of the husband and the concubine in the spring, and the concubine is not a jealous person, according to common sense, the entrance of this concubine room is carried in from the back door of the house, but Sister Qin's identity is a little different after all, so I told Sister Qin before that I went out of the money pile house in Chang'an City, carried it to Zhuangzi, and entered from the main gate. ”
Xuan Shijing nodded: "Well, my son has a heart." ”
If it was in Zhuangzi, there would be no more than a scene, and he would have entered the cave room after a lively meal, and now Jin Yang has come up with these methods, in addition to giving Qin Bingyue a name in a serious way, so that Xuan Shijing also has face on his face.
Qin Bingyue is Qin Yuxin's godsister, and the two of them have married in a proper manner, so Qiandui can be regarded as Qin Bingyue's brother-in-law, and there is no problem in starting from Qiandui's mansion.
