Chapter 214: A Strange Reward
The picture of dog eating dog is very tragic, Lu Zhisheng is like a mad dog constantly roaring and commanding, the guards around him are constantly decreasing, and in the end, even he himself fights with a knife, and finally he is cut off an arm, and Gao Chang's rebel team rushes up and takes him down.
Those nobles just wanted to take Lu Zhisheng to invite merit, but Li Hao waved his feather fan and said coldly: "Take everyone down." ”
The nobles of Gaochang were confused, what kind of way is this, why is this young man so unsophisticated, but they are on the verge of turning against the Tang army, why are they still taken prisoner, many nobles and generals are not convinced, and shout loudly.
Li Hao said leisurely: "Who screams again!" Tongue cut! ”
This sentence frightened the nobles to shut up one after another, and they could only swallow their anger and dare not say anything more.
After taking the prisoners, Li Hao led the army back to the Gaochang Palace, only to see that Hou Junji had already led the troops to occupy here, Hou Junji was the general manager of the Jiaohe River march, and he was at the same level as himself, so he naturally had the right to search the palace, Li Hao did not want to have any intersection with him, so he sent someone to inform Hou Junji, saying that he would temporarily withdraw his troops back to Tingzhou, and this would be handed over to him, and then lead the troops back to Tingzhou.
Of course, Hou Junji is happy, as soon as Li Hao leaves, he is the biggest here, he can do whatever he wants, Gaochang is rich, very rich, after all, Gaochang has been operating on the Silk Road for many years, and has done many years of unfunded trading, from the king to the people, every household is so rich, here, gold is very cheap, it can be seen from the gold pawnshop land of Lu Wentai.
Hou Junji looted the Gaochang Palace, a total of 230,000 taels of gold, he still felt that it was not enough, and ordered the army to be in column for three days, so that the soldiers plundered the whole city, and the harvest was all owned by the soldiers themselves, and the entire Gaochang City fell into darkness.
After Li Hao returned to Tingzhou, he received a report from the sergeant on what Hou Junji had done in Gaochang City, Li Hao shook his head indifferently, he knew that Hou Junji did this in history, and he also filled his own pockets and took the gold obtained from Gaochang as his own, and was convicted for this.
However, Li Hao didn't plan to care about Hou Junji's bad things, no matter good or bad, he didn't want to have anything to do with Hou Junji, now that the war was over, he wanted to return to Chang'an as soon as possible, so he wrote down the battle report as soon as possible and sent a fast horse back to Chang'an.
Although Hou Junji was dazzled by the gold, he did not forget to send the battle report, in the battle report, he tried his best to exaggerate the exploits of himself and Xue Wanjun, Xue Wanjun blushed when he saw it, but he was embarrassed to say anything, after all, he was only the deputy director.
In the following days, Hou Junji was stationed in Gaochang City, and Li Hao was in Tingzhou, both of them were waiting for the holy decree of the imperial court, and the cold winter came.
In the winter of this year, Tingzhou was very lively, although it experienced a big war, but after Li Hao's many rectifications, Tingzhou was even more prosperous than before, and the people's faces were full of smiles again, and they began to prepare for the New Year.
Li Hao is also happily preparing for the New Year, now that he is free, he has to measure his height every day, since he was despised by Xiaodi last time, he is particularly concerned about his height, surprises always come inadvertently, Li Hao has grown taller again, now he is 1.74 meters, such a height is already a tall crowd in Datang, Li Hao is satisfied, very satisfied, next time if you can see Xiaodi, you must compare your height with her, see if she still says that she is short.
Although the New Year in Tingzhou is lively, it is far worse than Lantian, after all, Li Hao has no relatives and friends here, and he watched four mothers-in-law play poker at home during the New Year, why four, because Gulina and Elena are like conjoined babies, playing cards have to be played by two people, Li Hao can only stand aside and stare dryly, for a while to Qin Su to support the move, and for a while to teach Turandot to play cards, there is no consciousness of watching the cards at all, the quality is extremely low, of course, Li Hao has no quality at all.
Zhu Ruihuan, this kid has been a lot more honest recently, Li Hao has begun to let the captains of the three special combat teams train him, and being trained by the captains of the three special combat teams three-on-one, Zhu Ruihuan feels that he has nothing to love, and he feels like he is on a thief ship.
In the fourteenth year of Zhenguan of the Tang Dynasty, on the third day of the second month, it happened to be the day of the sting, and the announcement team of Chang'an finally arrived.
This time, the holy decree was very long, rewarding a series of officials and generals, and even posthumously crowning the deceased Zhu Sulao, but there was no Li Hao, and the only order for Li Hao was to return to the court on the same day and listen to the holy will.
Li Hao was not surprised, according to his experience, Li Shimin was going to reward himself heavily.
Li Hao immediately packed his bags and prepared to return to the court, as for Tingzhou's side, Li Shimin's holy decree has said that he will send someone to set up the Beiting Capital Protectorate, Tingzhou should be a business, and Tingzhou will be represented by Qin Wei for the time being, Qin Wei This guy was directly sealed by Li Shimin Tingzhou Don't drive, it was a skyrocket, Jinli They were both happy and sad, happy because their good brother actually became an official, and it was Tingzhou Don't drive such a big official, and the sadness was because they were going back to Chang'an with Li Hao, and the good brothers who had been together for many years were going to part like this, Heaven is on the other side, how can you not be sad.
There is no indispersible feast in the world, and they Jinli used to be horse thieves, and they were used to the days of life and death, so after being sad for a while, they resolutely put on their bags and left Tingzhou with Li Hao.
When Li Hao's people were ready to appear in Tingzhou, 20,000 people in Tingzhou sent each other and bowed down one after another, Qin Wei sent the Wanmin umbrella on behalf of the people, Li Hao held the Wanmin umbrella, his heart was very excited, and he was speechless for a long time, although Tingzhou was only a corner of the Tang Dynasty, but he saw the simple and strong national spirit of the people of the Tang Dynasty here, it was precisely because of their unconditional support that he could keep Tingzhou, he was loved by the people, and he was not grateful to these simple people in his heart.
Li Hao bowed deeply to the people, turned around with an umbrella, and slowly walked out of Tingzhou with all the soldiers, heading south, the east wind blew, and the air rose with crystal light, I don't know if it was tears or dew.
At the same time, Hou Junji was also ordered to leave Gaochang City, the class returned to the court, because he received the holy decree before Li Hao, set off early, so he has been in front of Li Hao, ten days later, Li Hao faintly saw the army of Hou Jun in front, so he deliberately slowed down the speed, and distanced himself, he did not want to have an intersection with Hou Junji, this battle, is the first time Hou Junji served as the head of the march, and it is also the last time, back to Chang'an, he was unlucky.
When he entered Guanzhong from Longyou Road, it was already May, and Li Hao had already returned the accompanying army to Li Daliang, the governor of Liangzhou, and now only the left Wuwei and the right Xiaowei and his own special forces were entourage.
After entering Guanzhong, Li Hao was in a good mood, he was about to go home when he thought of it, he often woke up in his dreams, looking at the beautiful scenery of Guanzhong, Li Hao always pointed with a feather fan on horseback: "Look, look, this is the place where people stay, this is the place where I should stay, this time I come back, I will never go out again, I will die in Chang'an, I don't care, I will die in Chang'an......"
The mood of the people is also very good, for Li Hao's funny behavior, they have long been used to it, and even think it is cute, only Turandot They always like to tease Li Hao.
However, since entering Guanzhong, Li Ping has gradually become depressed, as if he is suffering from depression, Li Hao also slowly discovered her abnormality, and vaguely guessed her thoughts: After returning to Chang'an, Li Daozong will definitely be angry because of her sneaking away.
Li Hao sneaked into Li Ping's tent that night, got into Li Ping's bed, and frightened Li Ping, although she loved Li Hao without hesitation, but her thinking was still very conservative, before entering Li's house, how could she give herself to Li Hao, kicked Li Hao out of bed for a while, Li Hao was very wronged, and then said his true intention, he just wanted to tell Li Ping about the marriage contract, Li Ping was happy and shy after listening to it, I didn't expect that I and Li Hao had already had a marriage contract, secretly happy, and the melancholy in my heart suddenly disappearedThat night, Li Hao spent the night in Li Ping's tent, but they didn't take the last step, they just hugged each other and slept together, just sleeping, just sleeping, just sleeping, and said important things three times.
On the first day of the first month of June, Li Hao traveled to Yuanzhou, that is, Taiyuan, rested here for a night, just prepared to set off the next day, suddenly saw an elite cavalry team galloping in the distance, and when he got closer, he saw that it was Yulin Guard guarding the palace, and the leader was dressed as a eunuch.
"The general manager of the march of Liugu Road, the history of the Tingzhou Thorn, the captain of Tingzhou Zhichong, and the male Li Hao of Lantian County received the order!"
The other party came in a hurry, Li Hao didn't have time to prepare the incense case, and hurriedly led everyone to receive the order, and the middle-aged eunuch who led the way tore open the duck's throat and said loudly: "Pass on Your Majesty's will, Li Hao, a man from Lantian County, Pingluo Western Regions, Dingding Tingzhou, merit in the contemporary, benefit in the Qianqiu, special gift of Yanling Chongtian Jia, righteous thin cloud crown, golden wisp double fish belt, King Qin's hundred battle boots." ”
"Wechen thank the emperor for his grace!" Li Haoshan called out for his gratitude and got up to take the holy decree.
The eunuch beckoned behind him, and immediately three Yu Lin Wei stepped forward with three mahogany trays, the first tray contained a set of silver battle armor, the second tray placed a purple gold crown and a gold silk jade carved fish belt, and the third tray placed a pair of deerskin and silver silk combat boots.
The middle-aged eunuch pointed to the three trays and said with a smile on his face: "Lord Li, these costumes are imitated by His Majesty according to the outfit of his youth, and they are specially given to Lord Li to show the emperor's grace, Lord Li, change them." ”
"Li Hao, thank Your Majesty again." Li Hao solemnly bowed his hand, took off his shirt, shoes and hat, and was helped by the three Yu Lin Guards to put on the silver armor, and soon, a complete set of equipment was put on his body, and a snow-white cloak was also delivered, the middle-aged eunuch glanced at him, and suddenly smiled so much that his eyes narrowed, and nodded: "Majestic, this outfit is really suitable for Lord Li." ”
Li Hao smiled and arched his hand: "Thank you, father-in-law, to convey my gratitude to Your Majesty on my behalf." ”
"Definitely." After the middle-aged eunuch finished speaking, he turned around and left with the proclamation team.
Lu Yun stepped forward and looked at Li Hao, and nodded slowly: "Well, sure enough...... Very handsome. ”
"Handsome fart." Li Hao said depressedly, "Lao Tzu is in a hurry now, wearing this armor, I am in a panic, help me take it off!" ”
All:......
Fourteen days later, at noon, only ten miles away from Chang'an, suddenly saw a Yulinwei galloping, Li Hao hurriedly took everyone to dismount, and when he got closer, Yulinwei stopped, and an old eunuch with a wrinkled face stepped forward and pulled open his duck voice and said loudly: "The general manager of the march of Liugu Road, the history of Tingzhou Thorn, the captain of Tingzhou Zhichong, and the male Li Hao of Lantian County received the order!" ”
"Minister Li Hao takes the order!" Li Hao led everyone to kneel on the ground to receive the order.
The old eunuch said loudly: "Spread the will of His Majesty, Tingzhou Thorn History, Tingzhou Zhichong Duwei, Lantian County male Li Hao, young hero, with great ambitions, with 4,000 soldiers, 70,000 people to resist Huyi, according to Tingzhou, strong heroic spirit, promote the prestige of the Tang Dynasty, reward Li Hao's thousands of miles of good horses - lion skull, and give Li Hao Chang'an City to ride a horse." ”
Li Hao was shocked when he heard this, the lion skull? That is Li Shimin's favorite BMW, actually given to himself, he suddenly found that Li Shimin's reward this time is a bit heavy, first Li Shimin's own armor and shoes and hats, although they are imitation, but the significance is still very significant, and then it is the horse that Li Shimin has ridden, this lion is like a fake lion skull, not imitation, what is the reward below? Or is it something that Li Shimin has done?
