A great man once said: The Chinese people love peace, but they have never and will never be afraid of war!
On this land, the Chinese nation is simple, but they are also passionate!
Throughout the thousands of years of history, war has been with them almost all the time.
In many cases, fighting has even evolved into an art. In this unique art, there is nothing more satisfying than returning home with a victory.
The officials of the Tang Dynasty looked forward to it and watched the army pass by them dullly. It was not until Li Shimin arrived at the edge of the pavilion that the army slowly stopped under an order.
The long horn was blown by the powerful man, and the rich sound reached to the sky.
Although Li Jiancheng was already sweating profusely, he immediately stood up from the pavilion when he saw Li Shimin coming.
With a warm and sunny smile on his face, he went to lead Li Shimin's horse and hold the stool.
The gorgeously dressed palace maiden danced a beautiful dance for the soldiers.
Zhongshu Ling Feng Deyi, the first person in the court, led countless internal servants and presented a bowl of fine wine to the victorious soldiers.
On both sides of the wide road, countless officials bowed, and the people lowered their hands and saluted the man on the horse!
At this moment, it seemed that thousands of glory were gathered in Li Shimin.
Xiao Hanhan, who fell dozens of meters behind Li Shimin, watched all this.
He knows that logically speaking, this is the highest courtesy as a human minister!
But all of this, no matter how you look at it now, seems so hypocritical.
The prince's smile was fake, the compliments from the civil and military officials were also fake, and even the beautiful dances performed by the palace ladies were so pale and weak.
Only those soldiers who drank happily can add a little bit of reality to this false world.
Seeing this scene, an inexplicable upset suddenly came to my heart.
Xiao Han wanted to drive his horse away from here, but when he saw the excited soldiers around him, he had to suppress his irritation.
"Master Hou, look..."
Next to him, Xiao Ran called Xiao Han softly.
"What are you doing!" Upon hearing this, Xiao Han raised his head casually and looked in the direction of Xiaodong's finger.
There, there was an incomparably beautiful girl in red, smiling sweetly at him, just like when they first met on the edge of Ba Bridge!
"Xue Pan!"
Xiao Han's eyes widened instantly, and all the worries in his heart disappeared completely at this moment. It seemed that there were only him and Xue Pan in the whole world!
"He finally returned safely!" Seeing Xiao Han's shocked look, Xue Pan stood under the old willow and bit her lips, her beautiful eyes filled with tears.
Perhaps no one knows how many sleepless nights she spent during Xiao Han's expedition!
How many times had she heard the sound of horse hooves outside the door, and she would tremble with fear, fearing that some bad news would come from the east.
Fortunately, God still opened his eyes and sent him back intact. Xue Pan felt that he had never been so sincerely grateful to God in his life as he was today.
"Girl, don't cry when the army comes back. It's unlucky! Besides, he came back to get a reward for his meritorious service, so you should be happy too!"
Just when Xue Pan couldn't help but burst into tears, the elder of the three dynasties stood up and said to her with a smile.
"Well, I won't cry! As long as he is safe, I will be happy whether he gets any credit or not!" Xue Pan turned his face away after hearing the voice and wiped his eyes vigorously, but the tears became more and more unsatisfactory.
Looking at Xue Pan with pear blossoms and rain from a distance, Xiao Han felt his heart feel sour. He couldn't help it any longer, jumped off his horse, and started walking there with quick strides.
"Xiao Han, what are you doing!" Yu Chigong, who had been following Xiao Han, soon noticed something strange about Xiao Han. He quickly jumped off his horse and rushed over to catch him in a few steps.
Xiao Han's eyes were a little red, and he struggled hard a few times: "Let go! I don't care about this bullshit credit!"
Yuchi Gong held Xiao Han tightly with his big hands and said to him in a deep voice: "Calm down! I know you are angry, but no one can say anything wrong with the prince or the formation sent by His Majesty today. Don’t think too much!”
When Xiao Han heard this, he suddenly stopped struggling, turned around and stared at Yuchi Gong and said angrily: "Am I thinking too much? Look, what kind of stupid battle is this! Look at those people, and that Li Jiancheng!
Is this welcoming us? This is obviously showing off! King Qin is a prince, not a general! His Majesty did not say that he must pass the throne to Li Jiancheng!
It's good now, we have made great achievements, but they only show the etiquette of welcoming a general. What does this mean? Are you using King Qin as a working man? "
Yuchi Gong was a little frightened by Xiao Han's ferocious eyes. His hands unconsciously loosened a little, but he quickly tightened his grip again.
Turning his head to look at the noisy environment around him, and making sure that outsiders could not hear their conversation, Yuchi Gong whispered to Xiao Han again: "Okay, you know this, I know it, and King Qin also knows it!
But now what do you want us to do? Take these brothers and break into Chang'an to force your Majesty to change the crown prince into the King of Qin? "
Xiao Han snorted coldly when he heard this: "Why not? Isn't Luoyang going to follow suit?"
Yuchi Gong gave a bitter smile. He only thought that what Xiao Han said was an angry comment.
"Be patient, just for the sake of the brothers who are working hard for you! We can do without those honors, but they can't do without them!
King Qin is forcing a smile now, isn't it just to make the merit of the soldiers not be discounted? You don’t want to get dust on their faces this time because of you. "
Yu Chigong's words were also a little lonely. Even he could tell that something was wrong in the current scene, not to mention Xiao Han, who looked like a monkey if he had hair on his head.
After Yu Chigong said these words, a trace of hesitation clearly flashed across Xiao Han's face, especially when he saw the excited faces of the surrounding soldiers, the hesitation turned into a deep sigh.
He raised his hands and made a "wait for me" gesture towards Xue Pan in the distance.
Xiao Han was not even in the mood to get on the big green horse now. He mingled lonely among a group of soldiers and moved forward bit by bit.
"Hey, why can't people live for themselves?" The dejected Xiao Han muttered.
Yuchi Gong on the side glanced at Xiao Han and said with a bitter smile: "Those who only live for themselves are beasts, not people!"
Xiao Han raised his head, glanced at Yu Chigong in surprise and asked, "Oh? Why did you become smarter today? What you said makes sense?"
Yuchi Gong's dark face became even darker: "Ahem...Actually, King Qin had known this would happen for a long time. He came to me specifically yesterday and asked me to watch you and don't let you do stupid things..."
"..."
