Chapter 112 ? Good News
Chang'an.
The war in the border town still cares about the hearts of countless people. From the monarchs and ministers to the pawns and people, the most common thing to talk about is the war in the border town.
The Turkic army almost reached the city of Chang'an a few years ago, which brought great shame to the monarch, ministers and the people, so everyone was concerned and looking forward to the news of this battle.
The messenger rushed into the Chang'an city gate like a whirlwind, attracting the attention of countless people.
"Great victory in the grassland!"
The messenger's loud shout caused countless cheers.
It's a good news!
And it is a great victory!
Could it be that the imperial army has decided against the main cavalry of the Turks?
In the side hall of Liangyi Hall, Li Shimin was standing in front of the sand table and quietly deducing carefully. The movements of several armies marked on the sand table were exactly the movements of several armies.
Suddenly, the guards hurried outside the hall and were excited: "Report to Your Majesty, the messenger who reported the victory was waiting at the palace gate!"
A look of surprise flashed in Li Shimin's eyes, and he turned around and shouted: "Come on!"
The messenger who reported the victory was soon taken to Liangyi Hall.
"Report to Your Majesty, General Li Jing, the general of Dingxiang Road, defeated the Turkic cavalry on the grassland and beheaded 14,000 people. All the rest were dispersed, and we were not in the trace of Jieli Khan. This is the good news for the general."
"Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty!" Empress Changsun came in dressing up, obviously because she knew the good news of the good news.
This is not only the emperor's concern, but also a great threat to the Tang Dynasty. From now on, the Eastern Turks are no longer worth worrying or trouble.
Li Shimin laughed happily: "This is a happy event for everyone to celebrate. Come and present the good news of Duke Wei."
Eunuch Yao took the good news and checked it, and this time he respectfully presented it to the emperor.
Li Shimin couldn't wait to dismantle Li Jing's report, but soon a strange look appeared on his face.
Empress Changsun sat down beside Li Shimin and asked softly: "Your Majesty, what's wrong?"
Li Shimin raised his head, with a hint of confusion on his face.
This tough emperor who was on the battlefield rarely showed such confusion on his face.
So Empress Changsun was particularly curious. Didn’t she say that she was a great victory? Why did the emperor have this look on his face?
"The pharmacist said in the report that the first contribution of this great victory was Su Cheng." Li Shimin said incredible.
Empress Changsun opened her mouth slightly, and her face was also blank and surprised: "Su Cheng shouldn't be treated in the rear? Did he lead his troops to fight?"
This is impossible. Since Su Cheng is good at treating injuries, Li Jing will definitely put him in the rear to treat the wounded soldiers. No matter how hard it is, Su Cheng, who has never led the soldiers, will lead the troops to fight?
"The pharmacist has always been serious and will never do anything wrong in this regard. There must be his reason." Queen Changsun said,
"I want to see why this kid was named the top scholar by the pharmacist." Li Shimin continued to watch.
Empress Changsun did not read the memorial, but kept looking at Li Shimin's face, and Li Shimin's face became very exciting.
Surprise, doubt, incredible expressions intertwined...
"Your Majesty, what did Su Cheng do?" Empress Changsun asked curiously. If it were someone else, she would not have such a great curiosity, but it was Su Cheng.
Li Shimin had an incredible expression on his face: "The victory report said that Jie Li Khan led a large army to attack Xiangcheng. In a critical moment, Su Cheng used a jar to create a bomb and defeated the Turkic army. The morale of the Turkic army was greatly lost and panic. Just as the pharmacist brought the army back to the rescue, the formation of the Turkic army without any morale was scattered and completely defeated as soon as they joined the battle."
Empress Changsun sat next to her and felt like she was listening to strange stories: "Bombs? made of jars and jars? Defeat the Turkic army?"
Li Shimin took a look at Jiebao again and nodded, "Yes, and it can also make a huge sound like thunder, which is extremely powerful."
Empress Changsun and Li Shimin looked at each other, and they couldn't think of how to use jars and jars to make magical weapons to defeat the Turkic army.
Empress Changsun said: "I can't figure it out, but since Duke Wei has written it into the report so formally, it should be true."
Last time, Su Cheng recruited Arrow Rain and defeated thousands of Turkic cavalry and rescued Empress Xiao, Li Shimin didn't know how to explain to his ministers, so he could only say vaguely, what kind of bomb Su Cheng created this time.
No, Li Shimin's eyes suddenly stopped, and the good news said that the soldiers who made the bombs had already taken care of them.
What does this mean? This means that bombs can be made by others!
In an instant, Li Shimin's heart became hot. This was not the Taoist technique that Su Cheng had not been able to do at that time, but the secret recipe like burning a knife and a glass!
If the Tang Dynasty had such a powerful weapon, why worry about the injustice of the world? Why worry about the unsubmission of the barbarians? Why worry about the unstable country?
Li Shimin grabbed Empress Changsun's hand and said excitedly: "Guanyin Maid, this is a secret recipe, a secret recipe like a glass-burning knife! It can be made continuously!"
Li Shimin was excited and called out his nickname from the company commander Empress Sun.
Queen Changsun was also excited and said, "So there is a secret recipe!"
Li Shimin flipped through the good news and shook his head slightly, "There is no secret recipe in the good news."
Empress Changsun smiled and said, "Your Majesty is confused if you care. I think that with Duke Wei's cautious nature, you will not ask about the secret recipe at all, so how can you write it into the good news?"
Li Shimin was stunned and laughed: "That's true. Pharmacists have become more cautious in recent years. Even Zhijie and their friends have fewer banquets. They always stay in the house to study. In fact, there is no need to do so. I know his loyalty."
Empress Changsun smiled but said nothing, and no one could say much about this except the emperor.
"Huh? There is another secret memorial! It's Su Cheng's!" Li Shimin said in surprise.
Su Cheng’s secret memorial?
Empress Changsun and Li Shimin looked at each other and saw two words, secret recipes, from each other's eyes.
"So the secret recipe is here! This kid is smart." Li Shimin smiled.
Empress Changsun smiled and said, "Su Cheng has always been safe in his actions."
That boy is still safe? Li Shimin shook his head and took apart the secret song. There was still a secret song inside, and there was a folded piece of rice paper.
Li Shimin first opened the origami and immediately became dull.
"This is my family letter. Please pass it to Princess Changle. I am far away from you to thank Your Majesty."
Empress Changsun's phoenix eyes also glanced at the handwriting on the rice paper and immediately became dull.
Su Cheng's calligraphy is still as ugly as ever.
Of course, Empress Changsun, who had already seen, was not because of this dullness. He did not expect that Su Cheng would actually carry a letter from his family in the good news.
And I also asked Your Majesty to hand it over to Changle.
That's why Empress Changsun was stunned. This was perhaps the most casual memorial the emperor received.
