Northern Dynasties Imperial Industry

Chapter 1196: My Lord is Victorious

While the triumphal brigade was still on its way, the people in Guanzhong were already in a state of excitement. People were rushing to tell each other, and people kept coming and going to inquire about the return date of the brigade. After the army marched through Tongguan, the daily itinerary was reported to the pass in real time by passers-by.

The reason why the people pay so close attention to the returning army's military itinerary is naturally not because they have any evil intentions, but to be able to welcome and celebrate the division's triumphant return as soon as possible.

It should be noted that this expedition lasted for nearly half a year. Although the soldiers who went on the expedition fought hard on the front line, their family members who stayed in Guanzhong were also worried and missed them. Now that the expedition has finally returned, they naturally hope to be the first. It’s time for family members to reunite and celebrate the great victory!

Li Tai also understood very well that the soldiers were eager to return home. As the elders in Guanzhong were eagerly looking forward to the return of the soldiers, he did not arrange any other tasks on the way back. He just ordered the soldiers to withdraw in a step-by-step manner.

After the front team passed Fengling Ferry, groups of people could already be seen on both sides of the avenue rushing to greet them.

These Guanzhong elders were even more excited than the soldiers who had returned from the great victory. After all, the soldiers had been running around for several months and were already exhausted. However, all the Guanzhong elders were excited about this great victory. They completely demonstrated their reputation as Guanzhong soldiers, and their hearts were full of joy and pride. They greeted them along the way, and kept shouting that Erlang was mighty.

The already exhausted soldiers were infected by this atmosphere, and each one of them was filled with pride and pride. During the march, they shouted bugles in response to the cheers and praises of the elders, making the triumphal scene even more majestic and joyful.

As the commander-in-chief of this war, Li Tai's reputation reached new heights. Wherever his banners and honor guards came, cheers could be heard, and shouts such as "The King of Tang is mighty and victorious" were everywhere.

It's just that Mo Min is still in mourning now, and it's not convenient for him to show up directly to respond to the cheers of the people. He can only accept the warm welcome and support heartily.

"I respectfully welcome the King's triumphant return! The country is fortunate to have the King, the fortune of the country is prosperous, and the world is fortunate to have the King. The prosperous times are not far away! The King's army is invincible, and the people who are grateful to me are fortunate to be protected by the King. I sing a long song to congratulate you. Our Lord is victorious. !”

Cui Qian, who was staying in Guanzhong, and other ministers also came to greet him. When they saw Tang Wangyi arriving, they all rushed to greet him, paid homage to him, and spoke complimentary words first. They were all delighted. The feeling is beyond words.

Seeing how excited the crowd was, Li Tai was deeply moved. He got out of the car and helped Cui Qian and others up. He also said with a smile: "This is a great victory and a severe punishment for the traitorous country. Although the frontline divisions and brigade fought hard, With meritorious deeds, your Majesty and others who stayed behind to supervise the affairs of the country have failed to do so. With the people inside and outside working together, why should we worry about the inability to defeat the powerful enemy and the failure of the country's fortunes?"

After a war is completely won, the next step is naturally to share the fruits of victory and savor the joyful moments of joy. Cui Qian and others had prepared generous supplies to reward the army early in the morning. As soon as the army arrived at the camps around Shangyang Palace, these food supplies were distributed to the camps as soon as possible.

After the soldiers had eaten and rested here for several days, they had to accept the imperial court's awards and rewards, and then they could disarm and return home, reunite with their relatives and friends, and continue to celebrate.

A grand banquet was also prepared in Shangyang Palace to welcome the triumphant crowd, including Emperor Yuan Kuo, who once again came to Tongzhou from Chang'an to welcome the return of the Tang Dynasty King. However, because Li Tai was still Mo Min, he deliberately set up a small tent in the palace to isolate all kinds of sensuality and banquets. However, in order to avoid disappointing the crowd, Li Tai only talked with the emperor for a while in the small tent, and then got up and returned to the inner house, leaving this banquet place to the generals who were accompanying him to continue the banquet and celebration.

"My sons and daughters welcome Aye. Aye has returned victorious and shocked the world. Although I am idle in the court, I have heard of Aye's famous name. I am so proud that it is hard to describe!"

As soon as Li Tai returned to the inner palace, several little carrots came to greet him from the inside of the door. The first one was the eldest son Jiang Lingle, who knelt on the ground with a plop and shouted loudly.

The second eldest brother Xiangyang Le who followed behind him was much younger than my brother, and he couldn't speak in such an organized manner. He just knelt on the ground next to his brother and muttered: "Aye, mighty, mighty!"

"woo woo woo woo……"

The third child, Tong Zhoule, is less than two years old and still needs to be held by a wet nurse. His expressive ability is even worse. His whining is like imitating driving a train.

In addition to the three sons in front of her, Lady Miaoyin was already pregnant at the beginning of the year, and she successfully gave birth to a son a month ago, who was still in his infancy. His nickname was immediately given, and he could be called Luoyang Le. Just looking at the names of his sons basically represents the development trajectory of Li Tai's power.

Li Tai bent down and picked up the second child, then took the third child from the wet nurse's arms. With a glance he signaled the boss to follow him, and the four father and son walked straight into the inner palace.

At this time, in the inner hall, the family members had also been waiting for a long time. Li Tai first put down his sons and went to the hall to pay homage to his mother: "I have been away for a long time, and my tired mother is worried. My son is back safely!"

"Just come back, just come back!"

Lu's face was quite excited when she saw her son again. She looked at her son up and down to make sure there was no damage. Her frown slightly relaxed, but her eyes touched the empty seat next to her. Thinking of her late husband, her eyes filled with tears. He couldn't help but burst into tears, and quickly raised his hands to cover his face and said, "This old woman can't bear the sadness and joy. Now that you and your wife are reunited and we say goodbye, I won't disturb you anymore. Please leave with me for the time being."

As she spoke, she stood up, took her grandchildren to her, and walked out of the hall together, leaving the hall to Li Tai and his wives and concubines.

Now Li Tai has one wife and two concubines. In addition to Shaolai and his wife Miaoyin and Yao Niangzi, there is also a Turkic princess Xueji, who is also in the hall.

"Thank you, my wife, for bringing another child to our family."

After sending his mother away, Li Tai returned to the hall and sat beside his wife. Seeing that Miaoyin looked a little thinner, not as plump as during pregnancy, he frowned and said, "Pregnancy and childbirth consume a lot of blood and energy. Don't be lazy to take care of yourself just for the sake of a beautiful appearance!"

Miaoyin has been accustomed to her husband's meticulous discipline since she was a child. Although she has been the mistress of the house for many years, she is still full of attachment in front of her husband. After hearing this, she bowed her head and immediately held her husband's slightly rough hand with her backhand, and whispered, "My husband is not at home, and the food is tasteless. Today we can eat at the same table again, of course we have to taste the food carefully, and we will have more food tomorrow."

"Harmony of affection is the best tonic. Seeing the king, the princess's eyebrows and eyes are already relaxed and happy. There is no need to prepare more food for breakfast tomorrow morning."

Madam Yao has now integrated into the family atmosphere. When she heard Miaoyin say this, she smiled and said on the side.

The Turkic princess Xue Ji could now understand the Chinese language and could understand the general meaning. She could communicate without any hindrance, but she still did not have a deep understanding of the extended meaning of some words. After hearing this conversation, she bravely asked: "No breakfast tomorrow morning?"

As soon as this was said, it immediately caused a string of laughter. Xue Ji was a little puzzled after seeing this. There was a dull confusion in her beautiful blue eyes. Her eyes swept across everyone's face. When she looked at Li Tai, her eyes were quite shy and eager.

She was not very proficient in Chinese culture, but she also understood her mission and knew what kind of relationship she had with the King of Tang. The young girl who had just begun to fall in love was full of admiration and fascination for such a handsome and strong king who was in a high position and even his father and brother had to bow down to him. She was ready to devote herself at any time. Since entering the country, she has been studying Chinese etiquette and culture seriously and hard, just to eliminate the strangeness and estrangement between each other, hoping to be loved and accepted by the King of Tang as soon as possible.

Seeing that she seemed to have said something stupid again, she felt that her hard work in the past period of time seemed to have little effect, and it was still difficult to gain the acceptance and love of the Tang King. The Turkic princess couldn't help crying in grievance, but she was afraid of being disliked by others, so she only dared to raise her hand to wipe her tears when others were not paying attention to her.

"Why is this little fox crying? Is she really worried about having no food?"

Miaoyin didn't have any jealousy towards this beautiful baby. On the contrary, she liked her because of her beautiful and exotic appearance. Seeing her crying secretly, she couldn't help but asked with a smile.

"No, no... I'm not afraid of not having food, but I'm heartbroken because the king still doesn't love me!"

This Turkic woman hasn't learned how to express her feelings in a very tactful way, so she can only say what she thinks in her heart. The more she says, the sadder she becomes. She covers her face with her hands and sobs, "I'm not loved even when I smile, and I'm even uglier when I cry. The king hates it even more..."

Li Tai didn't expect to be courted so openly just after arriving home. For a moment, he was speechless. Putting aside the age of this Turkic woman, he was in black and white and couldn't get close to women. Miaoyin saw that she looked a little embarrassed, so she smiled and asked her husband to go back to the room to rest for a while, and then she put on a serious face and straightened her demeanor to educate this Turkic girl.

Li Tai was a little uncomfortable in the first half of the night after being suddenly separated from his military life and returning home. He tossed and turned, but he fell into a deep sleep in the second half and slept until noon. He felt extremely refreshed. After washing up and having a meal, he went to the front palace to handle official business and plan the rewards for the heroes.
