Carefree Prince In Tang Dynasty

Chapter 548 Feast and Rewards

The return of the victorious division does not mean an end, but the beginning of a feast.

That night, Li Shimin hosted a banquet in honor of the officials to celebrate the victory of this war, and also to show his achievements.

I can imagine with my ass that after this victory, Li Shimin's prestige and authority, whether in the court or among the people, will be greatly improved. In the past, the so-called Five Surnames and Seven Wangs who had the opportunity to wrestle with the royal family, and the undercurrent in the court that was not controlled by Li Shimin, at least until the limelight of this victory has passed, it is impossible to openly confront Li Shimin. Otherwise, without Li Shimin's actions, other people's saliva would be enough to drown him.

For Li Shimin, this is an excellent opportunity to consolidate his authority and enhance the imperial power.

In fact, when he was drinking with his officials, he was already thinking about what to do next.

In addition to this figurative feast, there is also an abstract feast. That is the official reward link of the imperial court.

The so-called way of controlling the subordinates has long been summed up very brilliantly by sages: "Exercise both kindness and might". That's all. Now that Datang has achieved a great victory, if the ministers who have made great contributions are not rewarded vigorously, who will have any reason to devote themselves to Datang in the future?

In this battle, Li Jing undoubtedly contributed the most. Naturally, Li Shimin would not be stingy, and directly named him Dr. Zuo Guanglu, gave him a thousand pieces of silk, and doubled the fiefdom along the way. The six armies of Chai Shao, Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, Zhang Baoxiang, and Zhang Gongjin, whether they are the chief general or the deputy general, are all rewarded for their merits.

Li Xin also participated in this banquet, but this time he was not the protagonist, so he stayed quietly in the corner, not stealing the limelight from the elders.

But having said that, Li Shimin's group of people really have poor wine quality. One by one, after drinking too much, they started to go up, and when they got up, they started to play music, and then the group of demons danced wildly.

Li Xin even admired the court musicians who were in charge of playing the music - what kind of rigorous training did they go through, so that they could still not smile in the face of such a funny scene?

Anyway, after the banquet, Li Xin pinched his thigh until it was almost purple. The reason is also very simple, because Cheng Yaojin, an old rascal, is so ugly when he dances. If Li Xin didn't pinch his thigh, he really couldn't help laughing. He knew very well that if he couldn't hold back his laughter, he might be kicked by Cheng Yaojin on the spot.

That was too hard.

Li Xin went back to Chu Palace, didn't even bother to take a bath, so he went to bed and fell asleep, and didn't wake up until the sun rose high the next day.

As soon as Run Niang came over with a basin to let Li Xin wash his hands and face, there was a blah blah blah outside.

Holding the towel, Li Xin couldn't help wailing in pain: Don't ask, it must be Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu who are shouting outside, these two idiots, if you don't come back, it will make people worry, if you come back, it will make people worry, it's Jin I am also worried about retreating, but when will I be happy?

Or go out and kick them to vent your anger.

Thinking of this, Li Xin smiled and washed his face indiscriminately, then put on a piece of clothing and walked out. Run Niang followed behind him, with a helpless wry smile on her face: How can this look like a prince? The clothes don't fit well, so I go out to meet people.
