Chapter 385: Good News

When the Tang army entered the city of Pyongyang, the people in the city did not react much, as usual, as long as the Tang army did not burn and loot in the city, it was already a great thing for the people.

Xuan Shijing stayed in the palace to learn about Pyongyang City from the information sent by the official office, while Chang Le went to patrol the streets with the people in the army, the Tang army had just entered the city, and there were still a lot of things to do, maybe after Su Dingfang arrived in Pyongyang City, Xuan Shijing would be more relaxed.

The scouts have already been sent out to contact Su Dingfang, and after the army arrives, they can directly enter the city, and the report of Xuan Shijing's destruction of Goguryeo has also sent a messenger to Chang'an for 800 li.

As soon as Chang'an's holy decree arrives, Xuan Shijing can return to the court.

When Xuan Shijing's messenger arrived at Chang'an City, it was already late at night, in front of the Suzaku Gate, the guards at the head of the city heard the sound of horses' hooves from a distance, and the messenger on horseback carried a red feather on his head and held a token in his hand: "Goguryeo war report, eight hundred miles urgent, open the city gate quickly." ”

The messenger began to shout from afar, until the people at the head of the city could hear it, and when the guards on the city wall heard the sound, they saw the red feather on the messenger's head, and quickly ordered the people below to open the city gate.

The messenger rode a fast horse and galloped all the way down Suzaku Street, heading straight for the Imperial City.

Entering the imperial city and the palace city, the messenger's horse stopped at the gate of the Taiji Palace, and then jumped off the horse and ran all the way into the Taiji Palace, and went straight towards the Dongshang Pavilion.

At this time, His Majesty Li Er had already slept in the Dongshang Pavilion, and the messenger asked to see him, so he could only go to the Dongshang Pavilion.

In the East Pavilion, outside the bedroom of His Majesty Li Er, Deyi rested outside, woke up after hearing the movement outside, walked out of the East Pavilion, and saw the messenger.

"Goguryeo war report, eight hundred miles urgent, ask to see Your Majesty."

Deyi walked up to the messenger: "The messenger waits for the time being, and our family will go to call Your Majesty." With that, Deyi entered the inner hall of the East Upper Pavilion and woke up His Majesty Li Er softly.

"Your Majesty, the war report from Goguryeo has arrived, and it is urgent for eight hundred miles."

At this time, His Majesty Li Er was already asleep, but after hearing that the eight hundred miles were urgent, he woke up, quickly got up, got dressed under the service of Deyi, and came to the outer hall.

Deyi invited the messenger in.

The messenger handed over the battle report to His Majesty Li Er.

His Majesty Li Er took the letter and quickly skimmed through it.

"Good, good, good! Happy! His Majesty Li Er was very excited after reading the battle report: "Deyi, what time is it now?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, it's the fourth watch now." Deyi bowed in response.

"Change the court clothes for me, and go to the Manna Hall first." His Majesty Li Er said.

"Your Majesty, you have only been asleep for two hours........ Let's take a little more rest. Deyi said.

"I can't sleep at all right now." The excitement on His Majesty Li Er's face still did not subside: "I am full of energy at this time, if I am no longer diligent, I am afraid that I will be compared to the young people in the court." ”

"This, who dares to be like this, on a par with Your Majesty?" Virtue and righteousness, Your Majesty's words, doesn't it mean that someone has made a high merit?

His Majesty Li Er smiled and waved his hand: "No, it's just the emotion in my heart, when I was my age, wasn't I so high-spirited?" It's just that all of a sudden, I feel that I'm a little old, and you go with me to the Manna Palace. ”

The last words were addressed to the messenger.

"Yes." The messenger answered.

After Deyi waited for His Majesty Li Er to change his clothes in the inner hall, he summoned the little eunuch who was on duty outside the Dongshang Pavilion, took the lamp, and the group headed towards the Ganlu Palace.

His Majesty Li Er will not go to the Taiji Hall to go to the court until the fifth watch, and there is still some time before the court, but His Majesty Li Er has already changed into court clothes and temporarily dealt with the political affairs left yesterday in the Ganlu Palace.

In the Ganlu Palace, the messenger and Deyi were silently waiting for His Majesty Li Er to speak in the hall, but His Majesty Li Er was thinking about how to reply to Xuan Shijing while dealing with the case.

"Your Majesty, it's almost dawn." Deyi reminded softly on the side: "The ministers outside the Taiji Hall have already arrived at the palace to wait for the court. ”

His Majesty Li Er stopped the pen in his hand and nodded: "Okay, let's go, go to court." ”

"Your Majesty, the messenger ......," Deyi reminded.

"This morning's court meeting, after I met with the ministers, the messenger returned to Pyongyang City and brought my will over, at this time, Xue Rengui, Su Dingfang and others have already met in Pyongyang City." His Majesty Li Er smiled and said, "This battle is really exciting!" ”

Three years ago, His Majesty Li Er drove the expedition in person, but there was no battle to determine Goguryeo, but after taking the city of Anshi, he stopped the pace, and the class returned to the dynasty, and now, although the past is different from the present, but Xuan Shijing won Goguryeo with 40,000 troops in Liaodong and Liu Renliang's sailors, which is also a great achievement, although Su Dingfang led his troops to participate in the war, but Su Dingfang's main merit was not in Goguryeo, but in Baekje, this battle won two countries on the Sanhan Peninsula at once, the territory of the Tang Dynasty, and a good piece more, How not to excite His Majesty Li Er.

Although Goguryeo is a disease of ringworm foot, it is erected there, and it always makes people look at the diaphragm.

On a new day, the sun rose as usual, and His Majesty Li Er, dressed in a crown robe, sat on the top of the Taiji Hall and accepted the congratulations of hundreds of officials.

"Ladies and gentlemen, yesterday night, I received an urgent battle report of Goguryeo for 800 miles, and after I woke up and read the battle report, I was so excited that I couldn't sleep all night." People are in good spirits on happy occasions, although His Majesty Li Er did not sleep for long, but he still sat here with a red face: "Dongshan Hou Xuan Shijing reported, 20,000 Liaodong soldiers are coming to Pyongyang City, and Goguryeo and Quannanjian in Pyongyang City have surrendered when they hear the wind, and in this battle, my Tang Dynasty defeated Goguryeo and Baekje in one fell swoop, and took a large area of land on the Samhan Peninsula, congratulations!" ”

"Ten thousand years of Datang! Your Majesty Long live! The ministers bowed down and sang in congratulations.

"This battle was won, but after the battle, there are still many things that need to be dealt with by the imperial court, and the eldest grandson is Wuji." His Majesty Li Er looked at the eldest grandson Wuji.

"The minister is here!" The eldest grandson Wuji came out of the queue with a wat board.

"You will take the lead, lead the provincial officials under the door, and immediately draw up the matter of establishing counties and counties in the land of Goguryeo and Baekje, and select the officials to govern it. His Majesty Li Er said.

"Commandment." The eldest grandson Wuji responded.

"Cheng Zhijie." His Majesty Li Er's gaze turned to Cheng Yanjin, who was standing on the other side.

"The minister is here." Cheng Yanjin came out of the queue with a wat board.

"The rewards and punishments of the soldiers of the army, I will appoint you as the overseer, after the Sima in the army reports, the household department will allocate money and food, and the officials will order the promotion, and the merit of the soldiers should not be slowed down."

"Obey."
