Chapter seven hundred and eighteenth willing to gamble to admit defeat

"Get out, I'm going to see the sand in my eyes. I'd rather shed blood than cry. You've read it wrong!"

Cheng Yaojin quickly started to argue, rubbing and poking his eyes wildly, as if something really was in it.

"What the prince said is that I personally guide the heroes and let them see that this is the Tang Dynasty they personally guarded!"

Li Er agreed without any hesitation and turned around and walked straight into Chang'an City.

"Long live your Majesty!"

After hearing this, the ministers and the soldiers present shouted.

There were even many soldiers crying with joy, holding the ashes in their arms and said, "Brother, have you seen that your Highness has not broken his promise. Now we have returned in triumph. Your Majesty personally guides you, so you can rest in peace. Leave the affairs of the family to me. I and me, go with peace of mind!"

As the army entered Chang'an City, all the people in the city were sensational. They all raised their arms and shouted to celebrate, but after feeling the wrong atmosphere, they all fell silent.

It was not until the well-informed people conveyed everything that had just happened outside the city gate that the people realized that there were so many soldiers who had sacrificed their precious lives for the Tang Dynasty.

Although the celebration banquet was held as scheduled, with this incident, everyone's interest was not very high, so it dispersed early.

The next day, morning court.

Wei Zheng and Fang Xuanling stood there with a nervous expression and were waiting. Today is the time for them to fulfill their bet. This time, their old faces will be lost.

But what they didn't expect was that His Majesty was late today. You know, this is a rare situation since the throne. Everyone looked at each other and didn't know what happened again.

Of course, many people have learned that after the banquet last night, His Majesty did not have enough fun and gathered with His Majesty to drink again. Perhaps because of the inability to drink, he has not come to court until now.

Just as everyone was talking, Li Er walked in the back hall with a little unnatural expression. He was on a whim last night, and it almost delayed the big thing.

Although the reason for His Majesty's lateness has been spread by everyone, Wei Zheng, a troll who is good at speaking, actually chose to remain silent this time, as if he had not heard of His Majesty's fault.

"My dear friends, can you report important matters?"

Sitting on the throne, Li Er gently rubbed his somewhat drowsy head and barely raised his energy to ask.

"Your Majesty, I have already explained what His Highness the Crown Prince told me yesterday. The Hero Tomb will be completed in a short period of time. I have already handed over the site selection to the Imperial Heaven Supervision."

Changsun Wuji hurriedly stepped forward and spoke up. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's attention to this matter is definitely higher than other things, so he would never dare to delay the matter at all.

"Transfer my decree that all the families of soldiers who died in the battlefield will be exempted from taxes for five years. If the only child of the family is born, the matter of supporting the elderly will be taken over by the local government, and there will be no mistakes!"

Li Er was very pleased to hear such an answer, and at the same time arranged the families of the dead soldiers. If they could give everything for the Tang Dynasty, then the Tang Dynasty would naturally not forget their family.

"Your Majesty's wise!"

"Your Majesty's wise!"

After hearing His Majesty's orders, the ministers hurriedly shouted.

"I wonder if you all have other things to report to me?"

Li Er asked helplessly. If he had known that today was so uncomfortable, he would not have drunk that yesterday, and he would have felt so uncomfortable now.

"Father, Uncle Wei and Uncle Fang have something to report to you!"

Just as Li Er was about to announce his retreat, Xiao Zhengta walked in staggeringly, locking his eyes directly on the two of them, smiling so brightly.

All the ministers in the entire court were stunned. I wonder why His Highness said such words. The two old men reported something that they had to report, and they actually needed His Highness to give a speech. What was wrong was not known, and all the puzzled eyes fell on the two of them.

"Ha ha!"

After hearing this, Cheng Yaojin grinned, but immediately realized that he shouldn't have been like this, so he hurriedly covered his mouth again!

"Report to Your Majesty, the Crown Prince, who fought in the south and north, and was invincible in the battle. I admire him very much. I have made a bet with Your Highness before that if Your Highness can destroy the Roman Empire and return in triumphantly, I will lose.

Now, everything is a foregone conclusion, the old minister is convinced and convinced. Long live the Iron Cavalry of the Tang Dynasty. In the future, the generals still need to sacrifice their lives and shed their blood. I will never have any complaints!"

Wei Zheng did not hesitate at all, nor was he embarrassed at all, and he spoke directly. If he lost, he would lose. He would admit that they underestimated His Highness.

"Your Highness, I'm wrong. You're right. The Tang Dynasty needs talents with both civil and military affairs. Single literature and single martial arts cannot govern the entire country. The two are inseparable and must be complemented to achieve the best results."

Fang Xuanling respectfully bowed to Xiao Zhengtai before he spoke, but he said very well. He just directly admitted that his point of view was wrong and did not bring other literati with him.

Facing these two old guys singing double acts here, Xiao Zhengtai was quite speechless. He was already very satisfied with how they could do this. The reason why they made things difficult for them was to let them know that the bitterness of the soldiers was not something you could understand in the court, just by moving your pen.

"Damn it! As expected, there is ink in my stomach, and the lines are completely the result they set themselves. I admire it!"

Cheng Yaojin was speechless about this result. He thought the two would be greatly embarrassed because of this, but he never expected that the two would use such scoundrel methods to resolve their embarrassment, which was indeed incomparable to him.

"The Iron Cavalry of the Tang Dynasty is invincible in the world. I know this more than any of you. I wonder what kind of enemies I had never seen when I was in charge of the battle? What kind of difficulties and obstacles I had never encountered? In front of the Iron Cavalry of the Tang Dynasty, the enemy is nothing more than a cloud of clouds!"

Li Er already understood that Xiao Zhengtai came here today and asked them to fulfill their bet, but it would be too sarcastic to announce such a thing in the court.

"Long live your Majesty!"

Knowing that Your Majesty did not want to continue on this topic, Changsun Wuji hurriedly shouted. After all, the words His Majesty said were facts and there was nothing worth refuting.

"I hope the two uncles don't blame my nephew. After all, my nephew really can't bear to see the soldiers, because of a word from some people, he denies his lifelong achievements!"
