When the troops entered the city, there were no crowds of people cheering, no one celebrating the King's victory, let alone eating pots of wine to welcome the King.
People come and go in Chang'an City, each working for their own livelihood. Hu merchants who have come from afar lead camels and walk cautiously on the streets, always keeping a half-bowed posture, as if they are ready to apologize to others at any time.
The soldiers patrolling the city walked slowly with their halberds in hand, their eyes fixed, and a whip in their hands. When they encountered a barbarian caravan blocking the procession without opening their eyes, or foreigners who came to Chang'an to work and make a living, they raised their hands and whipped them. After finishing smoking, he didn't say a word and continued to walk forward indifferently...
After Li Qinzai and Buqu's team entered the city, they were like water dripping into the sea, without causing any ripples.
When the low-key and unobtrusive procession reached Zhuque Street, a military attache patrolling the city passed by Li Qinzai and his subordinates, and then suddenly exclaimed: "Are you the Young Master of the British Duke?"
Li Qinzai was stunned, stopped and nodded subconsciously.
The military attaché stepped forward and bowed to Li Qinzai: "Young Master Shao Lang destroyed the country in one battle. I congratulate you, Young Master Shao Lang, and his subordinate Wang Shi on their triumphant return!"
The military attache's voice was very loud, which immediately attracted the gazes and whispers of passers-by.
"Who is the British Prince's young master?"
"That's the young man."
"What did he do?"
"Didn't you listen? He destroyed the Japanese country for the Tang Dynasty, which brought shame to the mouth of the Snow White River."
"Oh, that's amazing! You are so energetic! You and I should worship you as a hero of our country."
So, in the blink of an eye, Li Qinzai was surrounded by the crowd.
Following the military attache's salute, everyone in the crowd, including common people, merchants and passing government soldiers, saluted Li Qinzai and Li family Buqu with respectful demeanors and admiring expressions, which were obviously sincere.
The bustling Zhuque Street seemed to have stopped at this moment. People stood in silence from far and near, bowing respectfully to Li Qinzai and did not get up for a long time.
Li Qinzai felt a warm current in his heart.
He doesn't care about the discussions in the court or the merits and demerits, but he truly feels the feelings of family and country from the people, which is what he cares about.
Perhaps, it was this simple sentiment that was the fundamental reason why the Tang Dynasty was invincible in war.
What's not worth it to fight for such a lovely group of people?
His clothes were dusty, but Li Qinzai straightened his clothes and bowed straightly in front of the crowd of people.
Li Jiabuqu also pressed his sword and bowed.
Then Li Qinzai looked at the military attaché who recognized him and said, "Have you known me before?"
The military attache smiled and said: "Two years ago, Shaolangjun smashed a shop in the West Market. The villain was present at the time, so he recognized Shaolangjun."
Li Qinzai twitched his lips, hehe, what does it have to do with me? Two years ago, I was still working overtime at the company to change the plan.
Zangye Zanliang stood in the crowd and watched the people of the Tang Dynasty salute Li Qinzai with reverence. The scene of everyone respecting Li Qinzai as a national scholar deeply hurt her eyes.
She was the only one out of place in the crowd.
Her delicate fists were inexplicably clenched tightly, her knuckles turning white from the exertion.
The sixteen-year-old was very conflicted at the moment. I don't know whether to avenge my country or my country, or accept my fate and become a slave next to the enemy who destroyed the country.
After saying goodbye to the crowd, Li Qinzai hurried to the Ministry of War while it was still dark and handed over his military power to the officials of the Ministry of War.
After the Ministry of War officials inspected it, they immediately saluted Li Qinzai with a look of reverence.
The success of destroying the Japanese country had already reached Chang'an City, and Li Qinzai didn't even expect that he had become famous in Chang'an City recently.
Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, many countries have been conquered, but not many countries have been destroyed in the true sense. In the past, Turks and Xueyantuo were counted as two, Gaochang in the west was counted as one, and Baekje in the east was also counted, but Baiji was counted as one. The destruction of Baekje was so slow that Liu Ingui is still fighting the remaining evildoers in Baekje.
Only Li Qinzai did a great job in destroying the Japanese state, especially because he was fast and destructive. Wherever the Tang army went, the Japanese cities were basically reduced to ruins. With few exceptions, even the Asuka City in Kyoto of the Japanese state was burned down. Got clean.
When the news of such a beautiful and straightforward act of destroying the country reached Chang'an, it really attracted the attention of the monarchs, ministers and people.
Nowadays, rumors are spreading in the court and the market in Chang'an, and the Li family of England has inevitably become the talk of the town.
He deserves to be the grandson of the British Duke, and he deserves to be the son of a general. I originally thought that the fortunes of the three dynasties of the Li family were concentrated in the British Duke. After the British Duke, the Li family would inevitably decline. Who would have thought that the British Duke's grandson was even more talented than his predecessor.
With this battle, the Li family's luck can last for at least another sixty years.
After Li Qinzai, who looked confused, accepted the admiration of the officials of the Ministry of War, he handed over the official affairs and sent Buqu to send Li Sujie back to Taiji Palace. Finally, Li Qinzai led Buqu back to his home.
On the way back home, Li Qinzai's expression finally became anxious.
He did not care about the meritorious service of destroying the Japanese country at all. He did not destroy the Japanese country for meritorious service.
But Li Qinzai only remembered that he had changed the waterway to land in Japan in violation of orders. The violation of military orders could be big or small.
No matter how great a contribution he made, he was always at fault, especially since his grandfather was a famous general, and he hated people who disobeyed military orders the most. When he returned home, he still didn’t know what would happen...
When he was still a mile or two away from the British government, Li Qinzai suddenly stopped and said to Liu Asi: "Take off the armor on your body and put it on for me."
Liu Asi was stunned for a moment, then smiled knowingly, and took off his armor quickly. Not only that, but he also put an extra piece of leather armor on Li Qinzai's butt.
"Ahem, Fifth Young Master, don't forget to protect your head when you go home and get beaten. Also, run away first and then run to the backyard garden. The bushes there are very dense. It's hard to be found if you lie down." Liu A Si reminded with a smile.
Li Qinzai patted him on the shoulder movedly: "A good man will have a safe life."
…………
When they arrived at the gate of the British Duke's Mansion, the troops on duty outside had already recognized them, and immediately rushed to greet them, saluting upon meeting them.
"Congratulations to the Fifth Young Master on his triumphant return! The Great Tang Dynasty will be victorious!" the tribesmen shouted in unison.
Li Qinzai returned the greeting with a smile, and then looked at the towering lintel of the British Duke's Mansion anxiously.
"Ahem, grandpa, have you gone to bed?" Li Qinzai pulled one of the soldiers over and asked in a low voice.
Bu Qu was stunned: "Fifth Young Master, it's not dark at this time, how can I possibly sleep down?"
Li Qinzai said disappointedly: "Aren't all empty-nest old men who live alone a lot of sleepy? Why is he so energetic?"
Bu Qu whispered: "My husband has been waiting in the front hall for a long time when he heard that Fifth Young Master returned home."
Li Qinzai didn't move.
Others are afraid of being close to home, but Li Qinzai is afraid of being close to home.
After pondering for a long time, Li Qinzai suddenly said to Liu Asi: "Why don't you cover me with a white cloth and carry me in, pretend that I have died for the country, and it is my body that is carried back... You can also eat it by the way. Seat."
Liu Asi said with a dark face: "Fifth Young Master, don't make trouble! Even if it is a corpse, I will whip it."
Li Qinzai sighed, checked the armor on his body again, then pushed open the side door and entered.
As soon as he stepped through the door, Li Qinzai's eyelids jumped.
In the middle of the courtyard, Li Ji was holding his father-in-law's horse in one hand and stroking his long beard with the other, like a statue of Guan Erye. He stood in the courtyard with his sword straight, staring at him with murderous intent.
Li Qinzai stood blankly for a moment, then suddenly remembered that he had something to do, turned around and left.
"Come here, close the door!" Li Ji shouted violently.
Before I could step over the threshold, the side door slammed shut.
The person who closed the door was an old acquaintance, the housekeeper Wu Tong.
Wu Tong gave him an apologetic look after closing the door. Before escaping from the battlefield, Wu Tong did not forget the etiquette. He saluted and said hastily: "Congratulations to the Fifth Young Master on his triumphant return."
The mouse ran away with its head in its hands.
Li Qinzai gritted his teeth, why do you call this attitude of closing doors and beating dogs "congratulations"?
Having to turn around and face Li Ji, Li Qinzai realized that there were quite a few guests in the house today.
Li Ji Hengdao immediately stood in the yard, but there were many familiar figures in the front hall corridor, Su Dingfang, Liang Jianfang, Xue Rengui...
They were all famous generals of the current dynasty. All the famous generals stood in the corridor with smiles and looked at the grandfather and grandson. They had no intention of trying to appease the fight, and they were just watching the fun.
Li Qinzai smiled bitterly, swallowed his saliva, and saluted from afar: "Grandpa, please listen to my explanation first..."
Li Ji moved. The horse in his hand danced in a semicircle in the air, and he stroked his beard with his other hand: "Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! I won't listen, don't listen, don't listen! The evil beast shall die!"
After finishing his horse, he swept towards Li Qinzai with the force of wind and thunder.
Li Qinzai's eyelids twitched and he turned around and ran away.
If he didn't run away at this time, he would not only be a grandson, he would be a fool.
Fortunately, he humbly accepted Liu Asi's suggestion before entering. Li Qinzai ran towards the backyard garden without saying a word.
Li Ji picked up the horse and started to catch up behind him. A group of unruly veterans in the front hall cheered and applauded.
When Major General Li returned home in triumph, the treatment he received was so unpretentious and boring. To provide you with the fastest update of Li Zhi, don’t be a coward, Chapter 210 Returns home in triumph, the evil beast dies for free.
