Prosperous Tang Blood Blade

However, from Li Jiancheng's point of view, defeating Master Liang is certainly expected.After all, Liang Shidu lacked food and grass, and it was no big deal to defeat Liang Shidu without all the armored equipment. They had expected such a result before the war.

However, what surprised Li Jiancheng the most was that the number of Tang soldiers killed and casualties was less than a hundred, and most of the injuries were due to the cold weather, mostly frostbite.

Of course, Li Jiancheng's headache is not limited to how to reward Chen Ying, but how to resettle these 30 people. They are the most troublesome.

Although there are enough grain reserves in Guanzhong, and enough farms and factories to absorb the 30 people, if 30 people flood in all of a sudden, there will definitely be troubles, and we must plan in the long run.

……

Wang Gui walked into the secretary's hall, followed by a Lang Guan holding a stack of documents.

Secretary Cheng, Secretary Lang and other officials of the Secretary Province got up one after another.

Secretary Cheng Chu Suiliang said: "Congratulations Wang Shangshu, you have been promoted to Xiangguo."

Everyone followed suit and congratulated Fang Xuanling in unison.

Wang Gui smiled and nodded to everyone.

Wang Gui pointed to the account book in the hand of the accompanying Lang Guan and said: "The accounts of the Ministry of Civil Affairs this year will be sent to the Secretary for archiving. Please register and sign for receipt."

Secretary Cheng hurriedly went through the formalities.

Wang Gui turned the corner and walked to Shangshusheng, but saw Fang Xuanling sitting in a corner, still concentrating on his official duties.

Wang Gui nodded, leaned forward and said, "Xuanling, I heard from Your Majesty that you recommended me to be a political advisor?"

Fang Xuanling nodded.

Wang Gui checks with Fang Xuanling.

Fang Xuanling hurriedly turned sideways and said: "Shu Jie doesn't have to be like this. Xuanling recommended Shu Jie just because Shu Jie is the most qualified for this position, not because Shu Jie has the best relationship with Xuanling."

Wang Gui pointed at Fang Xuanling and burst out laughing.

Fang Xuanling also had a smile on his face.

Wang Gui smiled bitterly and said, "I, Wang, how can I be the most suitable candidate? If Your Majesty has done something wrong, my choice is probably to try my best to make up for it, not to correct it in person. If it weren't for His Majesty who knows his mistakes and can correct them Man, with my temperament, I will not end well!"

Fang Xuanling said: "What Shu Jie said is both right and wrong."

Wang Gui looked at Fang Xuanling with interest.

Fang Xuanling smiled softly: "Uncle Jie's temperament is not like mine, everything must be divided into black and white, if the civil and military affairs of the court are all like Fang, then the court will definitely mess up."

Wang Gui nodded appreciatively.

Fang Xuanling said: "To be a chancellor, one must have a generous heart. Although your majesty is not the best emperor, he has the heart of the best emperor. Shu Jie came to serve as a political adviser and entered the political affairs hall to serve your majesty. It’s really just right to pick up what’s left and fill in the gaps.”

Wang Jie pondered, nodded and said: "Xuanling, the most troublesome thing for His Majesty now is how to award the Hussar General Chen Ying. This matter depends on Xuanling..."

Fang Xuanling smiled and said, "It's simple!"

Wang Gui said with all his thoughts: "Xuanling means... to be crowned king?"

Fang Xuanling shook his head and said: "Nowadays in the Tang Dynasty, there are only two kings with different surnames, Li Yi, king of Yan County, and Du Fuwei, king of Wu. Now the two kings with different surnames are far away from the center and don't care about political affairs!"

Wang Gui nodded and said: "That's right, the Tang Dynasty still cannot do without General Chen, but one must be rewarded for meritorious service, and now General Chen's merit... How should I be rewarded?"

Fang Xuanling said: "Let the Zhongshu draw up an edict to make his son and bastard Li Siye the Duke of Lueyang County, his eldest son Chen Qian the Duke of Liang, and his eldest daughter Li Ruoxi the Lord of Lantian County!"

Wang Gui said: "That's it?"

Fang Xuanling sighed and said: "General Chen must be the same as King Yan and King Wu to be crowned king, and stay away from the center, otherwise it will be difficult to convince the public...Now the Great Tang cannot do without General Chen!"

……

The servants and maids of honor hurried in and out of the bedroom.

Li Jiancheng paced back and forth outside the bedroom restlessly.

A loud cry of a baby came from the bedroom.

Li Jing's wife, Zhang Chuchen, a red girl and Li Xiuning came out hand in hand.

Zhang Chuchen said with a smile on his face: "Congratulations, Your Majesty, the empress has given birth to a boy, and the mother and child are safe.

Li Jiancheng was immediately relieved and smiled.

Zhang Chuchen said: "The little prince is ranked seventh, the empress please give your majesty a name for the little prince."

Li Jiancheng couldn't help rubbing his hands together and said, "This... let me think about it carefully, let's choose a baby name for now... let's call it... let's call it Li Sheng!"

"Pfft..."

When Li Xiuning heard this, she immediately bent over with a smile.

Li Jiancheng smiled awkwardly and said, "Isn't it good...Xiao Qi was born, and the news of General Chen's success came. If not, I will be called Li Jie..."

Li Xiuning said: "Poor Xiao Qi..."

Li Jiancheng murmured, "Sanniang, what's your name?"

Li Xiuning said: "Xiao Liu's name is Cheng Yi, and Xiao Qi's name is Cheng Ren!"

……

Shangshu Province, the former Liangshi capital of Tongwancheng, has now been changed to Xiazhou Governor's Office of Datang.

In the backyard of the yamen, Yang Rong beat up angrily with an abacus.

Yang Ze came to the door and knocked lightly on the door.

Yang Rong threw down her abacus and said, "Come in!"

Watching Yang Ze come in, Yang Rong said happily, "When did the elder brother come to Xiazhou?"

"It's just been an hour!" Yang Ze looked at Yang Rong with a tired face and said, "I heard that you had a bad fight with your little cousin?"

Yang Rong nodded and said, "No, it's just that we haven't settled the deal, it's not unpleasant!"

Yang Ze casually found a Jindun and sat down and said, "Rong Niang, I'm not talking about you, you've made a lot of money over the years, so why worry about it..."

Yang Rong shook her head and said, "Brother, you don't understand!"

Yang Ze said angrily: "Don't play petty temper and make things difficult for others, or your relatives will become enemies, that's not good!"

"Brother, just put 1 hearts on my shoulders, I have my own measure!" Yang Rong said disapprovingly, "Don't worry, my little cousin will definitely promise me!"
