The God-Level Prodigal Son of the Tang Dynasty

Li Jing looked at the emperor and secretly wondered where the emperor's confidence came from.

How dare you be so sure that Zhao Chen will not do anything to Li Tai.

But he said: It's good that your Majesty has such confidence, but now outside Cangzhou City, Yuan Gaisuwen's army has not withdrawn for a long time.

Probably still looking for ways to attack the city.

I think it's better for us to be more careful.

According to Li Jing's combat experience, if the enemy cannot attack for a long time, 90% of the people will choose to stop and retreat.

Fighting deep into the hinterland, the logistical pressure cannot be explained clearly in just two sentences.

But the current situation is that Yeon Gaesumun has no intention of retreating at all.

It was hard for Li Jing not to think that Yuengai Suwen was still thinking about taking action against Cangzhou City.

In this case, they should also be on guard.

But the emperor didn't know if there was something wrong with his brain, and he didn't react at all.

You can handle this matter yourself. You old guy came here, could it be that you came here to watch a show? The emperor rolled his eyes at Li Jing and said angrily.

Li Jing's face twitched.

He found that since the emperor stayed with Zhao Chen for a long time, he was no less shameless than Zhao Chen.

What do you mean you came to see a show?

He, Li Jing, saw that the battle on the front line was not going well and wanted to come over to help.

It was not the emperor who appointed him.

Now that the front line is stable, Li Jing can just go back to Chang'an to retire.

But the emperor's reaction was too much.

Ahem, Your Majesty, I am a little old, and there are no big problems in Cangzhou City now, so I was wondering if I could go back...

Old guy, you are deliberately looking for my amusement, right? Just now you said that Yuan Gaisuwen might continue to attack the city, and now you say that Cangzhou City is fine.

Return?

I'm here, you still want to go back?

Stay here and command the army well. When Mr. Zhao comes here, I will consider letting you go back.

Okay, now it's all

Go back, I want to rest! The emperor waved his hand, interrupting Li Jing's words.

He was also severely humiliated.

Li Jing opened his mouth. He didn't quite understand when the emperor became so unreasonable.

Lazy and idle.

Is this something an emperor should have?

Li Jing even wanted to ask if the emperor wanted to retire early.

That's why it doesn't matter.

Yes, I resign! Li Jing finally held back and did not ask what was on his mind.

Walking out of the government office with Xu Shiji, Li Jing stopped and looked back at Xu Shiji.

What happened to Mr. Wei? Xu Shiji looked surprised.

It's nothing. I just feel that His Majesty the Emperor is not as diligent as before. Now that the enemy is outside, His Majesty has no sense of crisis at all.

I'm a little worried. Li Jing said what he was thinking.

Xu Shiji nodded, with a smile on his face again.

This is actually easy to understand, isn't it? Zhao Chen's identity has been revealed. If His Majesty the Emperor returns to Chang'an, he will definitely rectify Zhao Chen's identity as the crown prince.

Both Wei Gong and I understand Zhao Chen's abilities. With such a prince, what else does Your Majesty need to worry about?

In my opinion, His Majesty is now thinking of retiring.

At least in your Majesty's opinion, Zhao Chen is capable of governing the huge Tang Dynasty.

Compared with letting the prince supervise the country before, your Majesty may be more thorough this time. Xu Shiji said his guess.

Apart from this reason, Xu Shiji really couldn't guess why the emperor was so lazy.

Compared with previous years, Datang's national conditions are indeed much stronger.

According to the character of the emperor in the past, he will definitely continue to work hard to govern.

But at this moment, the emperor

He lived his life leisurely and carelessly, not caring about other things at all.

Xu Shiji really couldn't think of anything else.

Li Jing said nothing, but in fact he didn't know what to say.

I don't know what's going on in Chang'an now! While speechless, a word full of worry fell on his lips.

…

Tai Chi Hall.

Three days have passed since Kong Yingda was captured.

Queen Changsun returned to the Li Zheng Palace, and Li Tai was imprisoned in the East Palace.

Kong Yingda was imprisoned, and all his accomplices were imprisoned.

Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng and other ministers also returned to the court at this moment.

Everything is back on track again.

Today is a big court meeting.

A large part of the civil and military officials are missing.

Almost all the six ministers have disappeared, and the minister of household affairs is also vacant at the moment.

Empress Changsun was sitting on the high platform, looking at the courtiers in front of her, and she didn't know what to feel in her heart.

In just a few days, so many people in the civil and military dynasties disappeared.

This was a huge disaster for the Tang Dynasty and the people.

Queen Qi, all the courtiers have arrived and the court meeting can begin. Fang Xuanling looked a little haggard, obviously he had not recovered from the previous turmoil.

However, he can still come to court at this moment, which can be regarded as a blessing among misfortunes.

Fang Xuanling was also the only courtier who could sit on a chair.

It's hard work, Prime Minister, let's get started! Queen Changsun nodded in agreement.

After Queen Changsun finished speaking, no courtier spoke.

They all knew that before Zhao Chen spoke today, it was best for them not to speak.

Otherwise, something could easily happen.

Reporting to the queen, Duke Yi Guo Qin Qiong died heroically in the battle of Cangzhou. Zhao Chen carried the coffin of Duke Yi Guo back to Chang'an in accordance with His Majesty's order.

Your Majesty has decreed that Qin Qiong, Duke of Yi State, be appointed governor of Xuzhou, Duke of Hu State, with the posthumous title Zhuang, and he will be buried with Zhaoling. Zhao Chen walked out of the queue and held hands with Queen Changsun.

In his hand is the imperial edict given by the emperor.

The eunuch delivered the imperial edict to Queen Changsun.

Queen Changsun did not open it, her eyes fell on Zhao Chen, and she said with a smile: Hu Guogong is lucky to meet you.

According to the decree of this palace, Qin Huaiyu, the son of Duke Hu Guo, is loyal, brave and resolute. He is the son of a general. He inherits the title of Duke of Hu State and leads the Zuowuwei General.

When Qin Huaiyu heard that he could inherit his father's title, he even took the official position that his father had held during his lifetime.

I couldn't hold back my tears right now.

Except for civil servants, it is rare for the Duke of the Tang Dynasty to be hereditary.

And based on Qin Qiong's performance in Chang'an during his lifetime, it is basically impossible for Qin Huaiyu to inherit the title of Duke.

But today...

Your Majesty Qin Huaiyu, thank you Queen. Qin Huaiyu knelt on the ground and shouted to Queen Changsun.

Qin Huaiyu knew very well that he could inherit his father's title, but it was actually Zhao Chen who fought for it for him.

In the past few days, Zhao Chen went to the Li Zheng Palace several times to discuss whether he could inherit the position of Duke of the Qin family.

Get up. Tomorrow the Imperial Palace will go to the Qin Mansion to express condolences. You should prepare early so that General Qin can be laid to rest. Empress Changsun waved her hand with a warm smile on her face.

Yes. Qin Huaiyu nodded and returned to the queue.

Qin Huaiyu walked back to the queue, and the Tai Chi Hall fell silent instantly.

Zhao Chen also returned to his position, which surprised Baiguan.

They thought Zhao Chen would also ask for credit for others, but they didn't want it to end here.

He just talked about Qin Qiong alone.

You know, this turnaround was basically the result of Zhao Chen alone.

but……

Queen, I have something to say! When everyone was surprised, Wei Zheng suddenly stood up.
