There were indeed three such incidents with Haitang Duoduo, Gu Qing'er and Ye Mengyao.
"Your Highness, please..."
Lin Ruofu broke Li Chengqian's reverie and indicated that Emperor Qing was still waiting for their report.
"Xu Qing, take the soldiers to the Beijing camp to settle down. The rewards from the court should come in two days. Then we can have a drink together."
To go to the Beijing Camp, one has to pass through the Shenwu Gate. According to usual practice, the victorious soldiers would receive congratulations from the people here; the leading general would be widely praised by the people. What Li Chengqian said was equivalent to rewarding Xu Qing with this opportunity.
"Thank you, Your Highness."
Although he knew that Li Chengqian was trying to win people's hearts, Xu Qing still happily accepted the offer.
…………
It's time to change the owner of this palace.
Looking at the huge Qing Palace, Li Chengqian said to himself in his heart.
"Xiao Chunzi, I'm going to meet my father. You take Qing'er and the others to the East Palace to settle down."
"It's Your Highness."
Ignoring the reservedness of Gu Qing'er, Haitang Duoduo and Ye Mengyao after entering the Qing Palace, Li Chengqian said this and turned around and walked towards Xingqing Palace where Emperor Qing was.
"What on earth does the second brother want to do?"
Mountain rain is coming
Emperor Qing still noticed the abnormality in Kyoto City; if there was a problem, he would investigate it, and then he found out that his good son was preparing to cause trouble.
"Has that person's identity not been determined yet?"
Emperor Qing frowned and asked Eunuch Hou.
"Your Majesty, Director Chen of the Supervisory Council has been ill in bed these days, so..."
"Are all the other people in the Procuratorate dead? Without Chen Pingping, they can't do anything right. What about the Internal Supervision Department? They didn't find any useful information at all?"
Emperor Qing said impatiently that he had a feeling that his second son wanted to do something big this time.
“Eunuch Hong personally followed that person once. He was a ninth-grade master who was good at physical skills.
Because they are not completely sure that they can capture the other party, the Internal Supervision Department has not taken any action for the time being. "
Fearing that he would be angered, Eunuch Hou hastened to explain.
"There are a handful of ninth-grade masters in Kyoto City who are good at body movements. You can't confirm his identity?"
"Eunuch Hong suspected that the other party was from Tiansha Hall, and it is very likely that he was the mastermind behind the assassination on Niulan Street last time."
"Tiansha Hall?"
Dongyi City was being oppressed to the point of being suffocated. Northern Qi also sent messengers to ask for peace some time ago. Now in this world, the only one who dares to go against Qing Kingdom is Tiansha Hall.
“Since this is related to Tiansha Hall, tell the people in the Internal Affairs Office to be careful and not to alert the enemy.
By the way, is the prince here yet? "
"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince requests an audience."
Speak of Cao Cao and he will appear; Li Chengqian now has the attributes of a thief named Cao.
"Let him in."
He walks like a dragon and a tiger, with an imposing manner. Every time Emperor Qing sees his son, he feels like he is looking in a mirror.
In Li Chengqian, he can see himself when he was young.
"My son, I pay my respects to my father."
(Li Chengqian: Just based on how much I have kowtowed to you over the past few years, you should be smiling in your grave.)
"Get up, this mission was done well, I am very pleased."
Emperor Qing was not only satisfied with Li Chengqian's military achievements, but also with the way he later dealt with the 50,000 prisoners of war.
"It is all thanks to Marshal Xu's good command and the soldiers' dedication that we have such a great victory. I dare not take any credit for it."
Li Chengqian still spares no effort to maintain his own personality.
"Well, don't be too modest. I know all the merits you have made on the front line.
By the way, I heard that you also took Ku He's last disciple, Northern Qi Saint Haitang Duoduo, as your concubine. She is a genuine ninth-rank master. Aren't you afraid that one morning you will wake up and find that your head is missing?"
When father and son reunited, Emperor Qing was in good spirits and even joked with Li Chengqian.
"Your Majesty, you are joking. Duoduo is very knowledgeable and well-mannered. She also helped me to recruit many of the Northern Qi's stubborn resistance. Yecheng was able to stabilize in such a short time, and she played an indispensable role."
Not wanting Haitang Duoduo to have a hard time in Nanqing in the future, Li Chengqian praised her for her achievements.
"That's great. If she has done a good deed, she will be rewarded. I plan to make her the Crown Prince's concubine. What do you think?"
Friends who shared the same ideals in the past have gradually drifted away, but Emperor Qing’s goal has never changed;
He wanted to unify the world and achieve this grand goal during his lifetime; even if he could not achieve it, his successors must achieve it for him.
After unification, the next step is to pacify the people and govern the world. By then, Haitang Duoduo's identity as the Holy Maiden of Northern Qi will surely play a big role. This was the idea he made after hearing that Haitang Duoduo was captured.
(Emperor Qing: You little brat, it’s only because I’m not at the front line that you would have such a good opportunity.)
"It's all up to my father to make the decision."
Li Chengqian immediately grasped Emperor Qing's intention.
"Well, I won't keep you here any longer. Go to Hanguang Palace to pay your respects to the Queen Mother, and then you can return to the East Palace."
"Then I will take my leave."
After paying his respects to the old lady in Hanguang Palace, Li Chengqian went to Kunning Palace to see the queen. Seeing her sad face, he felt a little ashamed of what he had done to her.
Regret?
nonexistent.
It is said that a general's success is the result of the sacrifice of hundreds of soldiers. As long as I succeed this time, your sacrifice won't matter.
When you are staring into the abyss, the abyss is also staring into you.
Li Chengqian himself did not notice that, under the subtle influence of Emperor Qing, he had become the person he once hated the most.
.........
East Palace
If there is someone Li Chengqian cares about in the current world, that person must be Fan Ruoruo.
"I have met His Highness the Crown Prince."
The eager look turned into this gentle bow.
"Ruoruo"
Lust, lust. In the current world, Li Chengqian only has lust for most women, and only when facing Fan Ruoruo does he have a little more love.
"Your Highness has been exhausted from the journey, I have called Wanqiu and Wanqing to help you bathe and change clothes."
"Thank you for your hard work during this period."
Li Chengqian held Fan Ruoruo in his arms, touched her belly and spoke softly.
Chapter 245 The storm is coming
Emperor Qing acted quickly. Just as the dusty Li Chengqian had finished bathing with the help of the Fu sisters, his imperial edict arrived.
In addition to Haitang Duoduo being canonized as the prince's concubine, Gu Qing'er and Ye Mengyao were also canonized as beauties because of their family background; this allowed the three women who left their hometowns to have a foothold in a foreign country and the deep palace.
Taking this opportunity, Li Chengqian also let several people meet each other so that they could get to know each other.
"Meet the Crown Princess"
As the principal wife, Fan Ruoruo is now pregnant, and her position in the Eastern Palace can be said to be as stable as Mount Tai. At Li Chengqian's signal, Haitang Duoduo raised her head, and the three women bowed to her.
"My three sisters, please don't be polite."
Just based on the fact that these three people were from Northern Qi, Fan Ruoruo understood that they could not pose a threat to her, even Haitang Duoduo, who was named a concubine.
In front of Li Chengqian, she politely helped them up.
So, if you want to have many wives and concubines, you have to live in ancient times; looking at how harmonious they are, Li Chengqian sighed in his heart. (As long as they don't fight in front of me, it's harmonious.)
…………
That night, Li Chengqian stayed at Fan Ruoruo's place. The two hadn't seen each other for several months, and they hugged each other and talked to each other in their hearts.
"Your Highness, I will call Xiao Ping in to sleep with you."
After Fan Ruoruo got pregnant, Liu Ruyu made a special trip to the East Palace and told her some things to pay attention to, including one about sex.
"No, it's just the two of us tonight."
After going out, Li Chengqian's appetite became more sophisticated, and he began to look down on Xiaoping's beauty.
Of course the main reason was that he had just returned today and he wanted to take care of Fan Ruoruo's feelings.
Li Chengqian's statement made Fan Ruoruo very satisfied. It was one thing for her to share some with the maid when she couldn't eat, but it was another thing for her to watch her eat while she was hungry.
"Your Highness, let me help you."
Yes, after not seeing her for a few months, Li Chengqian almost forgot that this girl in front of him actually had some special skills.
.........
Chengwangfu
Li Chengze drank alone facing the moon, full of thoughts.
"What's wrong, Your Highness?"
Her husband has been like this for a few days now, and Ye Ling'er couldn't help but express her concern.
"I'm fine."
After learning from Tian Kuixing that the Ye family had no intention of being loyal to him, Li Chengze lost his previous patience with the woman in front of him.
The prince married the most talented woman in the capital, and I married the most shrewd woman in the capital. What a sin.
"But is it because of the prince?"
Ye Ling'er had no idea how her husband was complaining about her deep down in his heart.
"Well, he has returned victorious this time, and I am afraid my life will be even more difficult in the future. Ling'er, can you invite my father-in-law to your house for a gathering tomorrow? I would like to ask him some advice on some matters in the court."
"Of course you can, but Your Highness, don't forget that tomorrow is the Double Ninth Festival. The Emperor has already said that he will hold a family banquet at Longxingtai to celebrate the success of the Crown Prince."
"I know this."
How could he not know? Li Chengze was going to show his hand at the family dinner.
"Your Highness, it's late, shouldn't we go to bed?"
After the news came out from Fan Ruoruo, Ye Ling'er, who was married to her before and after her, felt pressured.
"I still have some government affairs to deal with. I need to go to the study to deal with them. You can rest first. You don't have to wait for me."
The eldest prince Li Chengping inherited Ning Cairen's roughness, so he quickly adapted to the bitter cold of the border. But what about Li Chengze? He is a bit like Concubine Shu, and his physical fitness is not good.
Ye Ling'er is a martial artist with a family background, so their married life is not harmonious.
"Yes, Your Highness."
Seeing that Li Chengze had once again refused to fight, Ye Linger replied resentfully.
.........
In the secret room of the study in Prince Cheng's mansion
Li Chengze didn't fool Ye Ling'er this time, he really had something to do.
"I have asked Ye Ling'er to invite Ye Zhong to come over tomorrow for a chat. Ye Zhong is quite skilled. Are you sure you can capture him quietly?"
"Don't worry, King Cheng. We have made all the necessary preparations before we dare to take such a desperate measure. But what did you promise us?"
The person who was talking to Li Chengze in the secret room was Tiankuixing.
"As long as you help me ascend the throne, my first order will be to form a brotherly alliance with your Northern Qi, and from now on, we will never offend each other again."
