Seeing all this in front of him, Li Er's face was very gloomy.
He never thought that the Supreme Emperor Li Yuan would slander Bai Jingyi so much because he couldn't win him over.If a peerless general is destroyed by the Supreme Emperor, wouldn't it be self-destructive?
Immediately, Li Er waved away all the attendants around him, looked at Bai Jingyi expressionlessly and asked, "What did the Supreme Emperor tell you? Why did this happen again!?"
However, Bai Jingyi smiled lightly and said, "Oh! I forgot."
After all, Bai Jingyi turned around and was about to leave. He looked at Li Er from his back and said, "If the Holy Majesty wants to know the details, then ask the Supreme Emperor."
"You...humph! Tomorrow morning you will be rewarded, don't embarrass me!" Li Er said with a gloomy expression.
However, Bai Jingyi disappeared into the night without looking back.
Walking out of the palace, you can just enjoy the night view of Chang'an City, although it is not as brightly lit as in later generations.It illuminates the corners of every street, but the row of lanterns on this street has a special taste.
The five hundred Xiliang cavalry had already moved into the barracks, and he found a restaurant at random. After admiring the night view of Chang'an City, he fell into a deep sleep.
However, Chang'an City was not peaceful that night.
Li Yuan's face was extremely pale while hiding in the Taiji Palace, he always felt that the attendants around him would kill him at any time.Whenever he thought of Bai Jingyi's words in his mind, he would be so angry that he would tremble all over.
It is already late at night, and it is impossible for Li Yuan to call Pei Ji over for a discussion, so he can only wait until tomorrow to make plans.
The ministers of several aristocratic families gathered together automatically after the celebration dinner was over.
"Now that Li Er is dead, he has returned to Chang'an City alive! It seems that it will be difficult to support Li Yuan to the top!"
"In this way, it is not difficult, but the major general of the Bai family is a variable!"
"That's right. I think the major general who came to the Bai family should have excellent martial arts skills, and now he has made great achievements and is highly appreciated by the Holy One. He also broke the precedent and rewarded the two princesses together!"
"In my opinion, Li Er was afraid of the appeal of the young general of the Bai family, fearing that he would lead the Beiliang army to rebel, so he rewarded him with two princesses!"
"Then according to what you say, whoever gets the young general of the Bai family won't win the world!?"
When everyone heard this, they all fell into deep thought, weighing the pros and cons, wondering if Bai Jingyi was worth wooing.
At this moment, the people from the Taiyuan Wang family broke the calm and said: "In my opinion, you should stand still for now!"
"Today, the young general of the Bai family holds military power and will definitely be feared by Li Er. Let's see how Li Er will appoint the young general of the Bai family tomorrow. It won't be too late for you to make plans by then!"
"That's right, then Li Er will definitely disperse the forces of the Beiliang Army like Li Yuan did. If this young general of the Bai family has a reputation but no military power, then he is not worth wooing!"
Afterwards, the ministers of these aristocratic families reported the results of the discussions to their respective families.
At this time, Li Er, who was proud of his life, was doing some indescribable things with Empress Changsun.Since he was in a good mood today, the combat power naturally lasted a lot longer.
Empress Changsun wiped the sweat off Li Er's forehead and asked faintly: "Has Second Brother really decided!? To ignore the opposition of the world and reward the two princesses at the same time!?"
"That's right, I have already said this, and I will never change it!" After Li Er finished speaking, he sighed again and said, "Ah~ Now that there is an undercurrent in the court, we must I need someone to suppress these wicked people for me!"
"Second brother, you're not afraid that you won't be able to control him!? In the end, the little general of the Bai family..."
However, Li Er smiled confidently and said: "I believe that after he becomes my son-in-law, he will definitely solve my problems for me!"
Empress Changsun saw that Li Er was so confident, she could only suppress the doubts in her heart, and did not dare to speak out against Li Er's self-confidence.
The next day, when the sky had not yet dawned.Under the service of a group of maids, Li Er changed into a dragon robe and prepared to go to the morning court.
Today is the day to reward all the heroes. Although the treasury has to be opened to reward these ministers, Li Er will definitely not feel bad about this reward...
After all, winning the Turks not only enhanced the national prestige of the Tang Dynasty, but also enabled the rapid development of the national power of the Tang Dynasty.
The ministers above the court were waiting for Li Er's arrival in high spirits, and the ministers with low official positions in the back row were still dozing off like they used to...
"The sage arrives~~"
Hearing the sharp voice of the old eunuch, all the ministers present cheered up.Quickly stood up, bowed to Li Er and said, "See Your Majesty!"
Li Er walked up the steps amidst the resounding voices, flung his dragon robe, and sat on the dragon chair almost at the same time as the falling dragon robe.
Then he waved his hand and said: "My loves, you are welcome!"
"Thank you, Lord!"
After the civil and military officials thanked them, they knelt down and sat down in their seats.
Li Erhuan looked around, but he didn't see Bai Jingyi, so he hurriedly said to the old eunuch beside him, "Go and send someone to find the little general of the Bai family!"
After receiving Li Er's order, the old eunuch hurriedly left the court in silence.
Now in the court hall, hundreds of civil and military officials are waiting for him to go to the early court, it is impossible to delay the whole process because of Bai Jingyi alone, so he can only start with other ministers to award rewards.
Cheng Yaojin looked at the generals around him with a proud face. Although he is a soy saucer this time, he has also made a lot of military exploits, and even killed several enemy generals on the battlefield to calm down Luo Yi.
Seeing Cheng Yaojin's complacent look, Li Er couldn't help laughing in his heart.Then he glared at Cheng Yaojin, and said slowly, "Cheng Zhijie stepped forward to accept the seal!"
Cheng Yaojin raised his head and chest, strode with his head held high, and walked to the center of the Tai Chi Hall very nervously, bowed to Li Er, and waited for Li Er's reward.
"In this battle, Cheng Zhijie is the vanguard of our army, and he will kill several enemy generals to boost the morale of our army! I will make you the general of Zuo Tunwei, the governor of Youzhou, the hereditary earl, and you will be named Lu Guogong! There are [-] households in Shiyi !"
Cheng Yaojin didn't change his face, and said in a full-fledged manner: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward!"
Hearing such a shocking award from the Holy Majesty.All the people present showed envious eyes.
What a great honor to be a hereditary earl, isn't this a blessing to future generations... Of course, Cheng Yaojin paid for these with his life. If you let those jealous people go to the battlefield, it's all up to you whether they can come back alive one question.
Then Li Er began to reward the next general, Qin Qiong...
Almost everyone was promoted to rank, and the hand of the Holy One was enough to shock everyone present.
This made them even more curious about how the Holy One should reward the greatest hero in this battle, Bai Jingyi!
After all, what he has done is the extraordinary service to save the country from disasters, and it can even be said that he is the hero who founded the country...
