The God-Level Prodigal Son of the Tang Dynasty

Two months later, more than 70,000 Tang Dynasty frontier troops remained in Yangcheng with Zhao Chen.

The rest of the Tang Dynasty soldiers who had followed Cheng Yaojin have now followed Li Jing back to Chang'an.

It took two months for everyone to finally get rid of the haze of Cheng Chumo's death in battle.

Today, Qin Huaiyu sat opposite Zhao Chen, holding a cup of steaming tea in his hand.

Today's Qin Huaiyu already has the calmness of a veteran on his face, and his movements have the same demeanor as Qin Qiong's back then.

"Zhao Da, when are you going to leave?" Qin Huaiyu put down the teacup in his hand and looked at Zhao Chen with bright eyes.

Although Cheng Chumo's death was buried deep in their hearts, no one had forgotten the desire to avenge Cheng Chumo.

Getting closer to the Japanese country and getting back everything about the Hongtian Cannon is their only purpose now.

"The army has been reorganized for two months, and now its fighting spirit is high. I plan to summon the generals tomorrow to enter the Japanese country from the Baekje estuary." Zhao Chen said slowly.

Although the storms on the sea are unpredictable, no one can stop him from going to Japan at this moment.

"Okay." Qin Huaiyu just replied with the word "ok" and didn't say anything else.

Anyway, whatever Zhao Chen wants to do now, Qin Huaiyu will follow him.

"Entering the Japanese Kingdom requires a large number of warships, but I am worried that the Japanese army staying in Baekje will have already learned of the defeat of their army and will destroy all the warships."

"Qin San, today you go first and lead 20,000 soldiers to Baekje Port to build warships. You only have two months at most."

"Don't worry, all warships must be ready before the army arrives." Qin Huaiyu nodded firmly.

He stood up and was about to leave, then suddenly looked back at Zhao Chen: "Zhao Da, things have come to this point, don't think about the past anymore."

Zhao Chen raised his head, looked at Qin Huaiyu and nodded with a slight smile.

Qin Huaiyu and Zhao Chen bowed their hands, then turned and left the room. \u003c

The room fell into dead silence.

…

Chang'an City.

Cheng Chumo's coffin entered Chang'an City today.

Li Ruoshuang stood at the city gate with Xiao Ping'an, watching Cheng Chumo's coffin slowly enter the city, she couldn't tell how she felt.

"Mom, Uncle Cheng is smiling at me." Xiao Pingan pointed to the coffin and said to Li Ruoshuang.

Li Ruoshuang looked forward, but saw nothing.

White lanterns were hung up in Duke Lu's mansion. Li Ruoshuang brought Xiao Ping'an to pay homage. Cheng Yaojin leaned against the coffin, looking very haggard.

Cheng Chumo's wife and her children, all dressed in plain clothes, knelt down to thank the gift.

"Sister Lu, my condolences." Li Ruoshuang didn't know how to comfort Mrs. Lu at this moment, so she could only say the most useless words.

Madam Lu raised her head, looked at Li Ruoshuang, and nodded with tears in her eyes: "Thank you, Princess."

"Alas." Li Ruoshuang sighed secretly.

There is nothing she can do now.

Cheng Chumo died in battle and Zhao Chen did not return to Chang'an, so she was worried.

But she also has no ability to change.

…

Ganquan Hall.

Lao Li looked at the book in his hand, his brows tightly knitted into the character "Chuan".

This is the military report sent by Li Jing.

The only content in the military report was that Zhao Chen did not plan to return to Chang'an, but was preparing to go to Japan.

The booklet said that it was to get back the blueprints of the Sky Cannon that were lost in Japan.

But what was he really doing? Li Shimin felt very sad.

clear.

"Your Majesty, if this matter is reported to the court, I am afraid that hundreds of officials in the court will make an uproar again. The Japanese country has always been attached to the Tang Dynasty. If the King of Han leads troops to the Japanese country, I am afraid..." Fang Xuanling paused slightly.

"Furthermore, it takes more than ten days to sail from Baekje to Japan. The sea is very rough. I am worried that King Han and others will be in danger. Your Majesty, it is safest to issue an order for King Han to return to Chang'an as soon as possible." Fang Fang Xuan Ling made suggestions to Li Shimin.

But Lao Litou didn't feel that Fang Xuanling's words were of any use.

If Zhao Chen could listen to his own will, would the trouble be as bad as it is today?

Cheng Chumo's death was not something he could do to recall Zhao Chen with just an imperial edict.

"How is Zhijie?" Old Li Tou asked about Cheng Yaojin's situation.

Fang Xuanling shook his head.

Even if that person loses his son in his old age, he will not feel good.

Although Cheng Chumo died in battle, he was brave and fearless.

But in the end, the person is still gone.

How could Cheng Yaojin not feel uncomfortable?

"According to my decree, Cheng Chumo is granted the title of General Zhongyong, Minister of War, Duke of Laiyang County. His wife, Lu, is granted the title of Second Grade Lady. His son Cheng Yong is granted the title of Duke of Xijun..." Li Shimin's voice sounded slowly.

Fang Xuanling had no objection.

The emperor's reward for Cheng Chumo and his family was just right.

The officials couldn't find any fault.

But these are not the most important.

The most important thing is that Zhao Chen sent troops to Japan.

Does the emperor really have no intention of intervening in this matter?

"His Majesty……"

"Prime Minister, how are you writing the document that I asked you to consider a few days ago to appoint Zhao Chen as the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty?" Old Li Tou interrupted Fang Xuanling who was about to speak.

#Every time verification appears, please do not use incognito mode!

Fang Xuanling was startled for a moment, and then nodded slowly: "I have written back to Your Majesty, but..."

"Just what?" Li Shimin looked over.

"It's just that His Majesty the Prince of Han has made mistakes one after another these days. If Your Majesty appoints the Prince of Han as the Crown Prince at this time, I'm afraid that all the officials..."

"You don't have to worry about the officials. In other words, you can spread the news, Prime Minister Fang, that any official who doesn't want Zhao Chen to be the Crown Prince can leave on their own, and I will never retain them."

"It just so happens that Chang'an Academy has cultivated many talented people these days, so it's good to arrange positions for them." Li Shimin said slowly.

Fang Xuanling was stunned by the emperor's decisiveness.

He also understood in his heart that the emperor had made up his mind to make Zhao Chen the Crown Prince this time.

He even went so far as to make enemies with all the officials who opposed it.

However, Fang Xuanling felt that the current Tang Dynasty royal family could not find another prince with such prestige and ability except Zhao Chen.

Zhao Chen becoming the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty was what everyone expected.

"Then the King of Han will go to Japan..."

"Let him go, give him an imperial edict, tell him that I don't care about Japan, as long as he lives well and returns to Chang'an." Li Shimin waved his hand, his face seemed a little tired.

"Yes!" Fang Xuanling bowed slightly.

At this moment, Fang Xuanling was even more certain that the emperor had completely made up his mind to make Zhao Chen the crown prince of the Tang Empire.

Otherwise, how could the emperor issue such an imperial edict.

But it's good that Japan is ambitious and actually reached out to grab the weapon of the Tang Dynasty. This time, it was Zhao Chen's fault.

However, Fang Xuanling hasn't figured it out yet.

Who on earth let the Tang Dynasty's sky bomber fall into the hands of the Japanese?
