Chapter 143
Now that the battle is over, it is natural to come to the stage of rewarding meritorious deeds.
The civil and military officials who had gone from the imperial palace to the outside of Chang'an City also went back together.
Although this is only superficial formality, it is also essential, and it can express the emperor's importance to Li Daozong and others.
What's more, Li Daozong is Li Shimin's cousin and a member of the Li family. With the victory of the Great Tang Expedition, the family no longer dare to say that the royal family Li has no one.
When Liu Sheng got into the chariot, he saw not only Li Shimin and Li Daozong, but also the present prince Li Chengqian.
At this time, Li Chengqian was so majestic and heroic that he couldn't see it at all. In fact, his health was not good. He had been weak and sick all these years, and he had completely inherited the physique of the eldest grandson empress. He was always worried that the emperor would transfer the throne to the fourth prince Li Tai.
Therefore, he specifically asked Li Shimin to come with him, just to achieve his goal.
"His Royal Highness is here?"
So, as soon as Liu Sheng got into the carriage, he asked in surprise.
Li Shimin waved his hand, casually said to Liu Sheng:
"Sit down, you can be regarded as a great hero of the Tang Dynasty."
Liu Sheng didn't restrain himself either, and sat opposite the prince.
The prince raised his head, nodded slightly to Liu Sheng, with a kind smile on his face.
Li Daozong on the side also looked at Liu Sheng curiously. Li Shimin saw Li Daozong's doubts and was happy to explain:
"Daozong, this is the chief logistics manager of our Tang Dynasty, Liu Concubine is right in front of your eyes."
"Aren't you very curious, now that there are people in front of your eyes, look, there are no superhuman beings."
Liu Sheng has long been used to teasing the emperor, but Li Daozong and Li Chengqian are not used to it. They looked at Liu Sheng in amazement, scrutinizing him from the depths of their eyes.
For the emperor to treat him with such an attitude, and Liu Sheng's face did not change, he seemed to be used to it, and it made the two of them tremble.
If it wasn't for the fact that Liu Sheng wasn't surnamed Li, otherwise, Li Chengqian would definitely regard him as his opponent.
But the reality is that he can only be regarded as a member of the royal family in a strict sense, not even Li Daozong, but he is qualified to let Li Shimin treat him like this. From this, it can be seen that Liu Sheng's position in Li Shimin's heart How high is it.
Liu Sheng cupped his hands modestly, "This is what a lowly official should do. If the country is in trouble, I, the people of the Tang Dynasty, will do it myself!"
Seeing Liu Sheng's serious appearance, even Li Shimin couldn't help but admire him.
Li Daozong also cupped his hands and said:
"This time, thanks to Concubine Liu's food, those instant noodles are indeed very convenient!"
"If it weren't for this, the army would certainly not have worked so hard."
In front of the emperor, lying is meaningless. Besides, Liu Sheng played a big role in this, and everyone is not blind, so naturally it cannot be covered up.
"Hey, where is it." Liu Sheng was still modest, waving his hands casually, he didn't want to get involved with Li Daozong.
It's not a good thing to have a relationship with a general in the army. One more Cheng Yaojin is the limit. He doesn't want to be regarded as a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh by Li Shimin.
As for the prince Li Chengqian on the opposite side, after Liu Sheng came up, he has not spoken, but looked at Liu Sheng silently, not knowing what he was thinking.
At this moment, he finally spoke:
"This time, Concubine Liu has contributed a lot to the crisis of the court, and the emperor should reward him!" Li Chengqian joked.
Li Shimin on the side nodded, "What Chengqian said is true, and I will naturally reward you!"
Based on his love for the crown prince, Li Shimin naturally knew that Li Chengqian was borrowing flowers to present Buddha, but he didn't care, after all, the throne would be given to him sooner or later, so it was no big deal.
And Liu Sheng, narrowing his eyes slightly, nodded slightly to Li Chengqian, not knowing what was going on in his heart, and did not speak.
Li Daozong on the side naturally also felt the subtlety of the atmosphere, and fell silent.
In silence, soon, they returned to the palace.
on the main hall.
Li Shimin sat on the dragon chair at the top, Prince Li Chengqian stood below, and Li Daozong stood at the head of the queue. As for Liu Sheng, he was also placed next to Li Daozong for the first time.
Anyway, there is no place for him in the main hall, he can stand here, at best, it can be regarded as an experience card.
Of course, Liu Sheng didn't care.
When the courtiers calmed down, Li Shimin naturally began to reward his meritorious deeds.
"Li Daozong!"
Li Daozong heard the sound and came out, and said loudly: "The minister is here!"
Li Shimin nodded slightly, "This time you personally led the army to expedition to Tuyuhun, and defeated the army, you should be the first to win the honor, and you will be promoted to the left servant of the Ministry of Rites! You will be named the king of Jiangxia County!"
It is already a great honor to be named king. In fact, he was already enough to be named king long ago, but because some of the ministers were not convinced, they have been suppressed until now.
None of the ministers stood up to disappoint, after all, they knew the result a long time ago, and it was spread throughout the three provinces and six ministries.
"The humble minister thanked the emperor for his great kindness, and he will definitely die for the Tang Dynasty!"
Li Daozong was excited in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face.
Liu Sheng looked at Li Daozong who was not far away, and secretly said in his heart, I hope you don't drift away, otherwise, Li Shimin might not be able to spare you.
After Li Daozong returned to the throne, everyone turned their attention to Liu Sheng.
At present, in the main hall, Li Daozong won the first meritorious service, so the second meritorious service will naturally belong to Liu Sheng.
The Ministry of Zhongshu audited and executed under the door, and soon marked the reward for Liu Sheng. Feng Wang absolutely does not have such qualifications, let alone they are still working hard to suppress it.
In the end, Liu Sheng was only given the title of baron, and even Li Shimin couldn't help it.
Of course, it is not known whether Li Shimin has the scruples that Muxiu will be destroyed by Lin Feng.
Anyway, the final result has shown that this matter has been settled, and no one can change this result.
Among the courtiers, some people reported sympathy to Liu Sheng, some reported him with gloating, and some reported him with resentment, Liu Sheng didn't care about these.
It is not bad to be able to confer a title on him, which shows that these civil servants still have a little bottom line, otherwise, they may not even have a title.
When Liu Sheng was about to be granted the title of baron, Li Shimin's eyes also had a sense of indebtedness, and Liu Sheng also saw it, which was enough, showing that he was also safe enough.
Besides, at his age, it is not bad to have such a title without having been on the battlefield.
Liu Sheng couldn't help but sigh in his heart, he was also involved in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, and the title of baron is the best proof.
"The minister obeys the order!"
Liu Sheng retreated back to the queue silently, his face was indifferent, Li Chengqian's eyes lit up, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Now that the battle is over, it is natural to come to the stage of rewarding meritorious deeds.
The civil and military officials who had gone from the imperial palace to the outside of Chang'an City also went back together.
