Chapter 1133 Give Them Generous Treatment
"When a soldier dies in battle, there is nothing we can do about it."
"If possible, everyone wants to bring them all back safely." Zhao Chen said, comforting Niu Jinda.
Niu Jinda smiled. He was also thinking about how he would tell Zhao Chen about Qin Qiong's death in battle tomorrow.
"As for you, there has been no news since you were poisoned. When His Majesty heard the news of your accident, he lost his bearings for a moment, so he was sneak attacked by Yeon Gaesumun with poisonous arrows."
"Where have you been these days?" Niu Jinda and Zhao Chen asked.
Niu Jinda now understands where Zhao Chen has gone these days when he disappeared!
Thinking about his disappointment when he went to the transportation team to look for Zhao Chen's traces, Niu Jinda now urgently wants to know what happened to Zhao Chen these days!
"Actually, it's nothing. After being poisoned, I kept hiding in the transportation team. It wasn't until the transportation team met Uncle Cheng and the others who were returning to Chang'an that I left the transportation team and went to Cangzhou with Ruoshuang." Zhao Chen said casually. Two sentences.
Although the journey was not as simple as I said.
But those are obviously not too important.
What Zhao Chen wants to deal with the most right now is nothing more than Li Tai.
Since he tried so hard to kill himself, he even did not hesitate to conspire with Yeon Gaesumun and Hou Jun.
Zhao Chen didn't feel that he needed to let him go!
Even if Old Li Tou himself now admits that Li Tai and he are from the same mother, but so what?
Zhao Chen has given in many times, and now the knife is on his neck.
To retreat again would be cowardice.
"When Your Majesty's condition stabilizes and you return to Chang'an, I will go back with you." Niu Jinda said suddenly.
Zhao Chen nodded and didn't think much about it.
He only thought that Niu Jinda could no longer lead troops to kill the enemy due to his health, so he wanted to go back with him.
"That's okay. Uncle Niu hasn't gone back to rest for a long time, so he just takes advantage of this opportunity.
Opportunity to go back and recuperate. "Zhao Chen nodded.
The two of them walked on the street, neither of them spoke again.
…
"Your Majesty, how do you feel?" Xu Shiji walked into the room and saw the emperor looking at the roof with his eyes open, and he couldn't help but feel a little confused.
"Young man Zhao has gone back?" the emperor spoke, his voice much louder than before.
His face still looked a little weak.
"He's back. General Niu sent him back." Xu Shiji nodded.
"Doesn't he know about Shu Bao's affairs yet?" the emperor asked again, with a little sadness in his brows.
Qin Qiong has been with him for so many years, experienced countless battles, big and small, and made countless contributions to the Tang Dynasty.
I didn't expect that I would die here.
Thinking about it, the emperor felt an incomparable hatred in his heart.
"Not yet. I plan to talk to him tomorrow. I just saw that his condition is not very good. If I know the news of Qin Qiong's death in battle, I'm afraid it will be difficult to accept it for a while!" Xu Shiji said his thoughts.
Xu Shiji knew that Zhao Chen and Qin Qiong had a good relationship, and there was Qin Huaiyu between them.
If Zhao Chen knew that Qin Qiong died in battle, it would be hard to believe it for a while.
Xu Shiji also wanted to wait for Zhao Chen to take a day off before talking to him about this matter.
"Your Majesty, Qin Qiong fought to the death to cover the retreat of the army. Other soldiers who were cut off from the rear also died in the battle."
"I would like to ask your Majesty to give them generous support." Xu Shiji said to the emperor again.
Li Jing on the side also nodded.
"The military advisor is right. The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty died for the country. Regardless of their status, they are heroes of the Tang Dynasty and must be treated generously."
"This will also allow other soldiers to
See, His Majesty and the court will never treat them badly. "Li Jing said.
The emperor's eyes darkened slightly, although the thick shirt could be said to inspire the living soldiers.
But those who died in the battle would never survive.
"Commander, go and discuss with everyone, draw up a decree, and bring it to me for a look."
"In addition, look for a good coffin to place Qin Qiong's body." .??.
"After that, let Zhao Chen be brought back to Chang'an and buried with Zhaoling." The emperor struggled to get up from the bed, remained silent for a moment, and explained to Xu Shiji.
Xu Shiji nodded and stepped back.
Zhaoling is the mausoleum that the emperor prepared for himself in the future. It is a great honor to be buried in Zhaoling.
Unless there is someone who has made great achievements or is someone the emperor values extremely, it is absolutely impossible to be buried with Zhaoling.
The emperor's current arrangement is probably a recognition of Qin Qiong.
If Qin Qiongquan knew about it, he would definitely be happy.
"Pharmacist, the army will be under your command next. Xu Shiji has been working hard these days. I want him to rest." As soon as Xu Shiji left, the emperor looked at Li Jing.
Sympathy for Xu Shiji's hard work is one aspect.
After all, for such a long time, Xu Shiji had been doing all the military affairs alone, and his fatigue was visible to the naked eye.
The emperor really wanted him to have a good rest.
On the other hand, the emperor also considered that the army had always been in a weak position under the command of Xu Shiji.
Now that Li Jing is replaced, he will not be so passive.
Moreover, Li Jing was more able to boost morale for the Tang soldiers.
Li Jing is a monument in the Tang army, and cannot be compared to Xu Shiji.
"Let Commander Xu be your deputy. He is familiar with the army and can save me the time of getting familiar with the soldiers." Li Jing thought for a while and said to the emperor.
Li Jing felt that if Xu Shi was
The performance was directly thrown aside, which had a great impact on Xu Shiji himself.
He would think that the emperor was very dissatisfied with him. The old guy was prone to random thoughts, and it would be bad if something happened.
"Okay, just let him be your deputy, so you can take a break."
"Everyone has worked hard these days!" The emperor nodded, agreeing with Li Jing's suggestion.
…
"How's it going? There's no big problem, right?" As soon as Zhao Chen returned to the inn, he was asked by Li Ruoshuang.
Li Ruoshuang packed all her luggage and paid the rent to the innkeeper.
She also wanted to go back to Chang'an earlier and see her daughter earlier.
The longer this time lasts, the more perfect Li Tai will be able to manage in Chang'an, and the more dangerous it will be for them to go back.
"It's not a big problem, but I have to go there again tomorrow." Zhao Chen said.
But Li Ruoshuang could clearly see that Zhao Chen was in a low mood.
"It doesn't matter if you are a day late. There are people at home taking care of you. Everything will be fine. Did you and His Majesty quarrel again?" Li Ruoshuang comforted her and asked in a low voice.
Li Ruoshuang was a little strange.
Even if Zhao Chen quarreled with the emperor, it wouldn't be like this.
In the past, the emperor was often taught by Zhao Chen that he could not hold his head up.
What happened today?
Or is the emperor using his father's identity to suppress Zhao Chen?
That shouldn't be the case?
Shouldn't the emperor have to please Zhao Chen?
"When I went to the camp today, I found many soldiers wailing and there were faint plain cloths fluttering in the army."
"When we were in the camp, only Commander Xu and Uncle Niu were there. I didn't see Uncle Qin."
"Later I saw Uncle Qin's war horse tied to a horse post nearby." Zhao Chen looked at Li Ruoshuang and shook his head slowly.
