"Welcome Your Majesty."

Li Shimin's troops arrived in front of the Shili Pavilion and separated to the left and right. Li Shen and his two brothers stood up together and bowed in salute.

"Supply your majesty."

The three thousand left guards dismounted and saluted together.

Li Shimin's carriage slowly came to the front, the door opened, the eunuchs brought over the stool for getting off the carriage, and Wang De helped Li Shimin get off the carriage step by step.

Li Shen took a quick glance and was shocked by the style, temperament and manners. He felt that he was far inferior to them.

Compared with Li Shimin, he was just a nouveau riche.

After Li Shimin got out of the car, Empress Zhang Sun also came out of the car. Li Shimin was very considerate and reached out his hand to take Empress Zhang Sun's hand and get out of the carriage.

The gorgeous crown and robes highlighted Empress Changsun's grace and elegance. With Li Shimin beside her as a backdrop, she looked even more noble.

Li Shimin said something in Wang De's ear again. Wang De nodded and went to the back. After a while, Concubine Wei also made a grand appearance.

But Li Shen always felt that something was missing.

Li Shimin brought Empress Changsun and Concubine Wei to the presence of Li Shen and his two brothers.

"Your Majesty, the Queen, and the Imperial Concubine."

The three of them saluted again.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty." The shouts of the three thousand left guards shook the sky.

"waived."

"Free~~"

The first one was said by Li Shimin, and the second one was shouted by Wang De at the top of his voice.

"Very good, there are many brave men." Li Shimin came to Li Tai, with a look of satisfaction on his face, and patted Li Tai on the shoulder.

"Thank you Aye."

Li Shimin came to Li Zhi again.

"Zhi Nu, you look much more energetic."

"Thank you for the compliment, Aye."

Li Shimin nodded, and then.... "Bring the wine over, keep it simple."

"......." Li Shen was confused. He was just thinking, should he say thank you, Aye, or thank you very much, Aye, or something else?

It was almost my turn, but I ended up spraining my waist and wasting my feelings.

"Hehe~~" Empress Changsun covered her face and chuckled. This was how the two of them behaved when they first met.

Seeing Li Shen's embarrassed look, Empress Chang Sun stepped forward, took Li Shen's hand and said with a smile:

"Shen'er, thank you for your hard work. Not only did you save the emperor, but I also heard that you fought off the Tibetan army that attacked the city and made great contributions.

Shen'er is really capable. Seeing you achieve such success, your mother is really pleased. Zhinu and Qingque are far inferior to you."

"......" Li Tai and Li Zhi were both very depressed. What a shameless old mother of theirs. You can praise her if you want, but you always criticize her after praising her.

For the first time, the two began to doubt their identities as legitimate sons.

"Oh, mother, you are too kind. Rescuing mother is what a son should do.

Knowing that they were going to hurt his mother, the child felt uneasy.

Seeing that his mother was safe and sound, the son finally put his worries to rest.

It is said that mother and child are connected by heart. In my opinion, mother is the best in the world."

Li Shen's voice was too loud at the end and his eyes kept glancing towards Li Shimin.

Li Tai and Li Zhi on the side were almost vomiting after hearing what they heard. How could there be such a shameless person who could say such disgusting words in front of so many people?

Their two biological sons had never said such words to their mother since they were young.

What the two brothers couldn't understand the most was that their mother was enjoying it so much that she was laughing so hard that she was shaking with laughter.

Looks very happy.

Even Concubine Wei, the baby's biological mother, felt ashamed because she had been pregnant for ten months and had never been to any evil places.

What kind of thing is this?

Li Shimin, who was standing aside, was even more furious. Originally, it was the credit for saving the emperor, but his interest changed after hearing what Li Shen said.

Li Shen was not trying to save the emperor, but the empress. It was natural for a son to save his mother, and he did not mention his old father at all.

"Hmph!" Li Shimin snorted coldly, interrupting Li Shen who was still trying hard to perform.

Li Tai and Li Zhi couldn't stand it anymore and hurriedly tried to take the wine that Wang De handed over.

"Wait, where's your wine?"

Li Shimin suddenly stopped the two of them, looked at Li Shen with a gloomy face and asked.

Li Shen was stunned, looking puzzled. Wasn't it Wang De who provided the wine every time?

Seeing Li Shen's expression, Li Shimin raised the corner of his mouth and shouted sternly:

"You bastard, you came to welcome me without even a glass of wine for me?

You are the Grand Protector of Qinghai Province and the Junior Secretary of Zongzheng Temple, don't you even know this little bit of etiquette?"

Li Tai and Li Zhi were also stunned, but then they came to their senses and stood there watching the show.

"Didn't they say... didn't they say... didn't they say there was no need to prepare anything? They said Steward Wang has it." Li Shen turned his head to look at Li Tai and Li Zhi, without looking for help.

The two of them turned their heads away and didn't look at Li Shen.

"Li Shen, it seems that I have neglected to discipline you, allowing you to develop such a spoiled and unruly character. The mistake of welcoming the emperor is not a small crime. Come, come to me..."

"Wait a minute!"

Just when Li Shimin was about to take revenge, Li Shen immediately shouted, then ran to his carriage, and soon came back with an exquisite glass bottle.

He came to Wang De, poured out the wine in the glass, then opened his own glass bottle, poured himself a glass, and drank it all in one gulp.

Li Shen drank three cups in a row before handing the bottle to Wang De.

"Yes, Aye, I have the wine."

Wang De came over, and Li Shimin opened Li Shen's glass bottle, smelled it, and then closed it again.

"Humph, I don't like this kind of wine."

After saying that, he picked up the wine glass on the tray. After seeing this, Li Tai and Li Zhi hurried forward and picked up the wine glasses with Li Shen.

Li Shen really wanted to say, if you don’t like it, just give it back to me. This bottle of wine is distilled wine, brandy.

Of course, Li Shen only dared to think about it.

After the red tape was completed, Li Shen's two brothers rode on horses and led the three thousand left guards to lead the way. Li Shimin also got on the carriage and headed towards the important city on the Qinghai Road.

In ancient times, the south was the most respected place, so at this moment, many people gathered at the south gate of the important city. Both sides of the road were filled with merchants who came to welcome the emperor, and they were separated by the officials and soldiers of the important city.

The court officials of important cities were all standing in front of the gate in court robes, waiting.

There were several large banners hung on the city wall, with slogans such as "Welcome the Great Tang Khan to visit Yaocheng" and so on.

"coming."

Someone shouted and everyone looked to the west. They saw a cavalry in front and the emperor's guard of honor behind them.

The three Li Shen brothers arrived first, dismounted, and came to the front of the gate to stand with the important officials.

Amidst the beating of drums and gongs, singing and dancing, Li Shimin's carriage slowly stopped.

Li Shimin and Empress Changsun got out of the carriage holding hands. There was no need for Concubine Wei to appear on this occasion.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty!"

"Congratulations, Your Majesty!"

"Congratulations, Your Majesty!"

(First of all, the siege battle is indeed poorly written.

Indeed, I wrote it a little hastily.

I checked a paper from a certain university. According to the records of the past dynasties, if you want to attack a city,

It is possible that the attackers can only have a chance of winning if they have three times the number of enemies.

To win, five to ten times is enough.

Of course, if there are many siege weapons, fewer people may be needed.

There is one thing I forgot to write about in the novel, which is the catapult. This was my oversight.

Fifteen thousand people versus more than one hundred thousand people in two days is indeed a bit of a joke.

But if the enemy has a lot of ladders, it is indeed possible to capture the city.

That's all. Goodbye.)
