Listening to Li Jiancheng's words, Li Haochen took the memorial and started reading without any pretentiousness.

The memorial reads, "My Dugu Ling bowed his head and risked his life to report to Your Majesty, the Grand Marshal Li Haochen, who looked down on the monarch. He regarded the national law as nothing, and killed ministers without any other things during the quarantine. During the quarantine's rebellion, he killed ministers without any other party, and privately released rebels, which was actually unforgivable. I dare not conceal the facts of Your Majesty, and I hope Your Majesty will clearly report to you to punish the thief to face the truth..." Afterwards, thousands of words were written, all of which were about Li Haochen's actions, killing the county magistrate, slaughtering the soldiers, and letting Li Shimin go privately.

After reading the memorial, Li Haochen slowly closed his thoughts with a serious expression, and then asked Li Jiancheng, "Do you believe me?" Seeing that Li Haochen was serious and had a serious expression, Li Jiancheng knew that this was a very thoughtful question, so he also said to him seriously, "If I don't believe you, I will not show you this memorial! But if you look at this memorial, how should I deal with it?" Li Haochen secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. If Li Jiancheng could tell him like this, it means that Li Jiancheng did not take these things seriously and did not believe Dugu Ling's words.

Listening to Li Jiancheng asking him what he thought, he thought carefully and replied, "Your Majesty, do you have anything to ask me after reading this memorial?" Although Li Jiancheng performed very well, being with the king is like a tiger. Li Haochen still asked Li Jiancheng very cautiously, for fear that Li Jiancheng would be generous, so he had questions about what was said in the memorial. If he didn't ask him, it would cause a gap between the king and the minister, which would be very bad. Thinking of this, Li Haochen asked this question.

Li Jiancheng, who understood Li Haochen's thoughts, thought seriously for a moment and said, "Did you really let Shimin go privately?"

Li Haochen listened to Li Jiancheng's question and replied without thinking, "I dare not hide it from Your Majesty. I did let the bandit leader Li Shimin go. This is what happened..."

After listening to the causes and consequences of Li Haochen, Li Jiancheng nodded slightly and said, "You did this matter in Haochen. Sun Tzu's Art of War says that "the army attacks and plans" will defeat others without fighting. This is the great way of military strategy. Besides, you captured the entire army without fighting. You are really a pillar of the court. If I am present, I will support you to do this!"

Li Haochen hurriedly bowed and said, "Thank you Your Majesty for your trust! Your Majesty is wise! Haochen asked himself about everything he did, it is for the country and country of the Tang Dynasty, for Your Majesty, for the people! I understand in my heart that Your Majesty is in love with his flesh and blood, and I cannot bear to kill Li Shimin, so I did not break the contract and tie him to Chang'an. I made arbitrary claims, and I hope Your Majesty will atone for his sins!"

Li Jiancheng patted Li Haochen on the shoulder and sighed, "I know that I am Haochen! It is right for you not to take him back to Chang'an. First, you are anxious to represent me on the battlefield, and everything you do represents me. If you break the contract in front of the battlefield and let the people of the world know that I don't trust, I may really punish you by the time! Second, what you said just now, if you really bring Shimin back to Chang'an, it will really pose a big problem for me. I can't bear to kill it, and if I don't kill it, it will be difficult for the whole world to keep everyone from talking. I am afraid that I will still vent my anger with you at that time! You did this well! I know it in my heart, so I will leave it to me to deal with it!"

Speaking of this, Li Jiancheng went back to the Dragon Case and placed the memorial in the upper left corner of the Dragon Case and took out the merit book of the rebellion submitted to Li Jiancheng by Li Haochen when he entered the city three days ago. He said to Li Haochen, "Haochen, the merit book of your merit book is accurate? Why are there only the military achievements of low-ranking officers not seen at senior officers? If you really reward me according to this merit book, you may have to make trouble with me again!"

Li Haochen listened to Li Jiancheng's question and quickly explained, "Your Majesty, you know. I hurriedly led the army to fight, and the composition of the troops to fight was too messy. I did not fully understand the abilities of each general, so I did not divide the troops to fight. They were all commanded by me. Moreover, the final decisive battle did not really start, so there were only some soldiers and low-level officers in this credit book to kill the enemy, and there was no meritorious commander of each army! If we say that the team that really made great contributions this time was the camp led by Zhang Han, who guarded the key peak of Tongguan. When the army arrived, we surrounded our army's entire army and forced him to surrender, which played a crucial role. Please reward him!"

Listening to Li Haochen's words, Li Jiancheng nodded first to express his approval, then raised his lips, bit his inner lip, and suppressed his smile. If he hadn't been concerned about the image of the king, he would have laughed out loud. Seeing Li Jiancheng's reaction, Li Haochen was a little confused. He didn't know where his words were funny just now. His doubts did not last long. Li Jiancheng said, "Okay, you bold Li Haochen, I ask you why senior officers no longer have the credit book, but you ask for me for the trap camp. Who doesn't know that trap camp is your direct unit of Li Haochen?" The potential meaning of Li Jiancheng's words is that you are a little arrogant. If you ask who has made contributions, you say that your direct unit has made contributions, you are really thick-skinned.

Li Haochen was a little nervous when he listened to Li Jiancheng's words. You must know that although Li Jiancheng was smiling and said to him now, it really made Li Jiancheng feel that he was intentionally forming his own power. Then he would definitely die worse than anyone else tomorrow. Therefore, he had to carefully sort out his thoughts and then said, "Although I have not read much, I do not avoid relatives from my internal ranks, and there is no need to be a vengeance on the outside. I still know that I have no direct troops. It is true that I am the trapped camp is the leader of the Left Guard, but this trapped camp is also the leader of the original Liu Zheng. If I had to say whose direct line this trapped camp is, I think that is the direct line of Your Majesty! All the kings under the world are the kings, and the shores of the lead land are the kings. Everything I have given to you by Your Majesty. No one is the direct line of your Majesty, but I must be the direct line of Your Majesty!"

Li Jiancheng was in a good mood when he listened to Li Haochen's words and smiled and said, "Li Haochen, OK, no water! But you remember what you said today! As long as you are loyal to me, I will give you supreme glory. Even if you are below one person, it is not impossible for you to be above ten thousand people!"

Listening to Li Jiancheng's words, Li Haochen hurriedly said respectfully, "Your Majesty loves you, I must remember what you said today!"

Li Jiancheng knew that he could not discuss anything with Li Haochen. If he really made a reward based on the merit book, it would definitely not work. If he discussed with Li Haochen to reward the commanders of the various army who had no merit, he probably wouldn't agree, as the leading marshal Li Haochen, thought that Li Jiancheng would not agree. Thinking of this, Li Jiancheng said, "Haochen, I know that you have been busy these days and have not yet returned home. I know that you and his wife are newlywed, so you can go home first!"

Li Haochen retired and left the palace after hearing this.
