Boarded the ship at Nagasaki Port and sailed to Datang Dengzhou.
Li Qinzai stood on the side of the ship, looking at the endless sea, bathing in the sunshine and breathing slowly.
It was still the cold winter when I left Datang to go on an expedition, but when I returned to Datang, it was spring and flowers were blooming...
I wonder how Cui Jie is living in Zhuangzi, whether the lady from the aristocratic family ate poisonous mushrooms, whether she fell into the river when fishing, whether she was so poor that she went to the streets to beg for food...
It’s really missed.
Hearing a gentle sob, Li Qinzai turned around and saw that on the other side of the ship's side deck, Kono Sanliang was leaning on the railing, lowering his head and sobbing.
Li Qinzai frowned and walked over slowly.
"It's hard to leave your homeland, right?" Li Qinzai asked softly.
Kouno Zanliang was startled. He quickly raised his sleeves to wipe away his tears and said, "Young General's words are serious, but I dare not."
Li Qinzai suddenly emphasized his tone and said: "From now on, in front of me, you will call yourself 'servant'. I am not a young general. Most of my family members call me 'Fifth Young Master'."
Zangye Zanliang was silent for a moment, then lowered his head and said, "Yes, Fifth Young Master, I have remembered it."
His heart dropped a lot. From the title of Tono Sanliang, it was clear that the young general of the Tang Dynasty obviously had no intention of taking her as a side chamber. From now on, she could only be a nameless maid.
Li Qinzai said coldly: "Since you have no reason to take back the women sent out by the Japanese royal family, I am afraid that you will have to live in the Tang Dynasty for the rest of your life. Is it uncomfortable?"
"It's not hard. It's a slave's blessing to serve the Fifth Young Master." Sanliang Kono said in a low voice.
Li Qinzai smiled: "My face doesn't turn red when I say something that is unconscionable, and my heart doesn't beat. She is worthy of being a daughter of the royal family and has seen the world."
Li Qinzai then said leisurely: "The person standing in front of you is your enemy who destroyed the country. It was I who decided to land on the Japanese island. I commanded the battle to destroy the Japanese country. I was the one who forced your father to apologize in Aomori Castle and sign the armistice covenant. It’s me too, serving an sworn enemy, do you really not hate it in your heart?”
Kono Sanliang lowered his head and remained silent.
After all, she was once a pampered princess. She might be able to say one or two unconscionable words under the roof, but she wouldn't want to say more than two words, especially if she was the enemy of the country and the family.
Li Qinzai laughed again: "It doesn't matter if you hate her. Let's be frank. She is obviously the eldest princess of a country. There is no need to behave like a humble person who is naturally willing to serve others."
Kouno Zanliang gritted his teeth and said, "I... am the trophy of your Tang Kingdom, right?"
Li Qinzai thought for a while and said: "You can think so, at least in your father's eyes, you are one of the prices that must be paid for the ceasefire between the two countries, and it is the smallest price."
Kono Sanliang lowered his head and said, "How will your Tang country treat your trophies?"
"Of course he took it back, cleaned it, made a specimen after death and hung it on the wall. Visitors at home would enthusiastically show him around and show off his achievements."
Kono Sanliang's face suddenly turned pale and his body began to tremble.
Li Qinzai added: "Oh, by the way, that's how to deal with livestock."
Kono Sanliang was slightly relieved and tried hard to argue: "I... my slave is not an animal."
"I know, I can see it." Li Qinzai nodded and said: "From now on in my house, as long as you don't climb trees or steal peaches, and salute immediately when the gong is struck, you will be able to live a happy life in my house."
Kouno Zanliang looked puzzled, but Li Qinzai did not explain.
The relationship between the two was unfamiliar and stiff.
Wu Yezan harbored hatred for destroying the country, and Li Qinzai certainly would not regard her as a close family member. He had always been wary of her.
It’s a pity that this face looks like Mr. Mikami’s...
After a long silence, Kono Sanliang couldn't help but ask: "You... keep your slave by your side, aren't you afraid that your slave will assassinate you?"
Li Qinzai smiled again: "If you succeed in the assassination, do you know what the consequences will be?"
Kono Sanliang looked at him blankly.
"The entire clan of the leader of the Japanese country, including your father's family, your mother's family, the so-called royal family members, and all the people of the Japanese country, will all be buried with me."
"In the eyes of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, I am much more important than your father, and my grandfather is also a meritorious general of the Tang Dynasty. If I die, he will personally lead the troops to avenge me, and your Japanese island will be barren of grass. Do you believe Do not believe?"
Kono Zanliang's face turned pale, he lowered his head and dared not speak.
Li Qinzai sighed: "With all the people in the family, there is no egg left. You and your royal family are really lucky to survive this war. My original plan was to conquer the entire Japanese country by force and destroy it." The palaces of the Japanese country will be replaced by the generals and officials of the Tang Dynasty who will be in charge of the affairs."
"But why didn't you..."
Li Qinzai said regretfully: "Your father knelt down too quickly and his movements were too neat. I didn't even react..."
…………
After ten days of sailing, we finally returned to Dengzhou of Tang Dynasty.
When the warship docked, Li Qinzai took the lead to step out of the warship and stand on the Dengzhou port. Li Qinzai couldn't help but kneel down, touch his lips to the ground, and kiss the soil under his feet.
Li Sujie behind him said in astonishment: "Sir, why are you doing this?"
Li Qinzai stood up, dusted off his clothes, and said calmly: "It is a ceremony to return to the homeland. This land is the root of us Tang Dynasty people. We should pay homage to it."
Li Sujie understood, so he knelt down like Li Qinzai and kissed the soil under his feet.
Li Qinzai smiled happily and said: "Sages, people in the world can kneel in their lifetime, 'the king of heaven and earth, personal teacher', we kneel to heaven and earth without losing face."
On the shore of Dengzhou Port, the governor and a group of officials had been waiting for a long time.
Seeing the warship docking, the officials rushed to greet it, saluted and congratulated the king on his triumphant return.
Li Qinzai was eager to return home, but he still had to put on a smile to socialize.
It was not until the governor warmly invited Li Qinzai and other generals to a banquet at the governor's mansion that Li Qinzai declined politely.
What's the first thing you do when you return to Datang?
Of course we have to hurry home, what else? Is there any point in drinking and having fun with these officials whom I have never met?
There were about four thousand soldiers who returned with Li Qinzai, all of whom were veterans.
The soldiers had been away from home for a long time, and a war had delayed the spring planting. Everyone was so anxious that they did not want to stay in Dengzhou for a long time.
After taking a short rest, Li Qinzai said goodbye to the officials and led the troops towards Chang'an City in a hurry.
Along the way, in addition to rushing, they also camped. When passing the city, Li Qinzai even ordered to avoid it because he didn't want to waste time socializing with those unfamiliar officials.
After traveling for more than twenty days, we finally arrived outside Chang'an City.
Counting the days, it is already the end of May, and summer is in sight.
Looking at the towering Chang'an city tower, Li Qinzai's tired face showed a happy smile.
"This...is Chang'an of the Tang Dynasty?" Kono Sanliang's pretty face showed a look of shock, and he stared blankly at the endless city wall.
"Your unseen look makes you more and more suitable for the role of a slave." Li Qinzai praised.
Kouno Sanliang raised his dark eyebrows, with a trace of the arrogance of an eldest princess emerging between his brows. However, thinking of his identity at this moment, he immediately lowered his head sadly and sighed quietly. strong sacrifice miaoshu jade an. read sacrifice
Chang'an was approaching. Although Li Qinzai was excited, he did not forget his mission. He calmly ordered: "All soldiers should go to the Peking Camp to rest and recuperate. Ah Si led his troops to follow me into the city. They will first hand over orders to the Ministry of War and then return home!"
Just as he was about to urge the horse forward, the reins were grabbed by another hand.
Li Qinzai turned his head and saw Cheng Boxian looking at him with a worried expression.
"Brother Shangxian, what's wrong?"
Cheng Boxian coughed and said, "After delivering the order to the Ministry of War, how about I come to my Cheng family as a guest first, and then have a banquet and then send you home?"
"Are you crazy? I rushed all the way back to Chang'an and instead of going home first, I went to someone else's house to be a guest?"
Cheng Boxian's tone was almost pleading: "Just this time, I'm just a guest. I don't have much else in the Cheng family. I have enough wine and beauties to take care of. My dear brother Bao Jingchu is happy and forgets to leave."
Li Qinzai sighed and patted him on the shoulder: "Brother Shang Xian, what's done is done. Let's accept our fate. It's just a knife when I stretch my head or shrink my head. Why don't I get a good beating when I get home? Just carry it over." Young model in the club, if you can't handle it, you will burn paper during the Qingming Festival. You and I will ask for blessings." To provide you with the fastest update of Li Zhi, don't be a coward. Chapter 209 is free to read if you stretch your head or shrink your head.
