Li Shimin left the Sweet Dew Hall in a good mood. His heart was filled with joy and joy. This was because Du Qi had made a great contribution to the Turks this time.
It could be said that he had made great contributions to the country.
Li Shimin also felt honored, especially when he entered the palace, Li Yuan looked at him with gentle eyes.
After Li Shimin left the palace and returned to the Qin King's Mansion, he immediately arranged for people to call Zhangsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, and Du Ruhui over. He quickly told them about Li Daen's contributions in Daizhou and Du Qi's role in it.
After Li Shimin finished speaking, his eyes fell on Du Ruhui and said, "Keming, we really benefited from Erlang this time. This kid can always break the situation by surprise. We were all worried about his safety when he went to the Turks. I didn't expect that he would bring back such great news. The victory at Yanmen Pass is tantamount to winning a few years of time for the Tang dynasty to stabilize the internal situation. "
Hearing this, Du Ruhui's face was full of smiles.
His son made him proud!
Fang Xuanling congratulated, "Keming, congratulations. After the battle at Yanmen Pass, your Erlang is even more favored by the Emperor. Alas, I really don't know how you taught such an outstanding kid. "
Du Ruhui waved his hand and said proudly, "There's nothing to teach. It's just three beatings a day to let him know the severity and let him know that if he doesn't study, he will be beaten. After he started to study and understood the truth, he gradually got better. "
Fang Xuanling's cheeks twitched.
He learned Du Ruhui's way of teaching his son, but the final result was not satisfactory. Fang Yiai was timid in front of him, like a mouse in front of a cat, which made him angry.
He could not learn Du Ruhui's way of teaching his son. However, when he heard about Du Qi's various achievements, Fang Xuanling could not help but want to slap Fang Yiai, that idiot, to death. After following Du Qi, he did not learn the slightest bit of Du Qi's cleverness.
Zhangsun Wuji saw this and also felt pity.
He also couldn't learn Du Ruhui's way of teaching his son. He also learned how to discipline his son, Zhangsun Chong. The problem was that the moment he was prepared to make a move, that unfilial son would slip away. Zhangsun Wuji couldn't catch up to him at all.
Li Shimin's gaze swept across Zhangsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling. When he saw their expressions, he knew what they were thinking. Because he was also sighing in his heart. Other people's children were so good!
His son had failed.
He couldn't compare to Du Qi.
Li Shimin restrained his thoughts, he sternly said, "Fu Huang summoned me into the Palace, other than talking about the great victory at Yanmen Pass, he also said that he wants me to personally go out of the city to welcome Erlang, who is about to return."
"Therefore, the entire Duke of Qin's Residence needs to make preparations. After all, the news of the great victory at Yanmen Pass can't be hidden. It must be announced and shared with the people. Let the thousands of people in the entire Tang dynasty know about the great victory of the Tang dynasty. "
"It's a pity that Erlang was the one who came up with this plan. However, the greatest merit fell on Li Daen's shoulders. In the battle report, Li Daen said that Erlang personally gave the merit to him. This kid shouldn't be so modest in this matter. "
Li Shimin felt that it was a pity.
Because the better Du Qi was, the more helpful it would be to him.
Fang Xuanling smiled and said, "Your Highness, Erlang is after all young. Even if all the merit was given to Erlang, I'm afraid that the reward he would receive would be limited. "
"With Erlang's shrewdness, he would definitely know how to maximize the benefits of this matter."
"Erlang gave the merit to Li Daen, which is equivalent to giving Li Daen a favor. Especially when Li Daen and Erlang experienced the great victory at Yanmen Pass together. In this way, Li Daen owes Erlang a big favor. "
"Since His Majesty has already issued an edict to summon Li Daen to the Imperial Court as an official. Then, the Ministry of War may almost fall into Your Highness' hands. This is Your Highness' opportunity. "
Fang Xuanling analyzed carefully.
He saw different benefits from different perspectives.
"Xuanling is right," said Li Shimin.
Du Ruhui didn't say much. His mind was full of joy. Because Du Qi had made a great contribution, the Du family could be said to have brought honor to their ancestors. Du Ruhui was immersed in joy. After the discussion, he asked for leave and returned to the Du family.
As soon as he arrived, he went straight to the backyard. There was a joyful look on his handsome face. When he saw the Jeong Clan, he said, "Madam, great news, great news!"
"What great news?" asked the Jeong Clan. "Is His Majesty going to depose the crown prince and make King Qin the crown prince?"
"Be careful, the walls have ears," said Du Ruhui.
Madam Zheng snorted and said, "Other than this, what else is there to be happy about?"
For the Du family, if the king of Qin couldn't become the crown prince and couldn't succeed, then once Li Jiancheng ascended the throne, the king of Qin's bloodline would suffer a heavy blow.
The Du family would also suffer a calamity.
This was something that everyone knew.
"The great news I'm talking about is about Erlang," said Du Ruhui with a smile. "Erlang has made another great contribution."
After hearing this, the Jeong Clan's eyebrows smoothed out. He couldn't wait to say, "Tell me, what great contribution did Erlang make? Oh, he's worthy of being my son. This kid really makes people happy! "
Du Ruhui didn't hide anything and quickly told them about Du Qi's plan to deal with the Turks. He also said that Li Shimin personally ordered Li Shimin to bring people to welcome Du Qi's return.
The Jeong Clan was even more enraptured after hearing this.
Du Ruhui stroked his beard and said in a deep voice, "Erlang is worthy of being my Du family's seed. This kid takes after me. He's very smart, decisive, and courageous. "
"You?"
The Jeong Clan snorted and said coldly, "You can forget about it. You're already so old, and you're just an army officer of the Duke of Qin's Mansion. Our Erlang is already a Rank-7 Xuan Yilang. When he comes back this time, His Majesty will definitely reward him. "
Du Ruhui's cheeks twitched. He didn't expect his old wife to say such words.
It was simply a stab to the heart.
Fortunately, Du Ruhui was already used to it and didn't feel anything. Du Qi smiled and continued, "Now that Erlang is coming back, he will receive His Majesty's reward. During this period, you can't be too high-profile. Don't go out these few days, so as to avoid new problems. "
The Jeong Clan stared at Du Ruhui and said, "How can new problems arise? I'm not inviting disaster, nor am I stirring up trouble. I'll stay at home and go shopping. Who will I provoke? "
"What's more, my son made a great contribution, yet I can't go out. What kind of logic is this?"
"When I should go out, I still have to go out."
"What's more, our son is now a hero of the Tang dynasty. He has a status, so why can't I talk about it? Our Erlang is twelve or thirteen years old. At this age, it's about time to consider choosing a marriage for him. "
The Jeong Clan said, "I have to put this matter on the agenda and choose carefully."
Du Ruhui said, "You can choose Erlang's marriage. But Erlang has always been a man of his own. If you want to choose a marriage, you still have to ask Erlang. "
"Of course!"
The Jeong Clan held her head high and said, "If even our son isn't satisfied, how can I be satisfied?"
At this point, the Jeong Clan suddenly sighed and said, "Husband, to be honest, Erlang's temperament has changed greatly since he fell into the water, and he has become very good, so I'm not worried at all."
"As for Dalang, although he's studying now, in terms of merits and status, he's still far behind. In fact, Dalang can't be compared with Erlang at all. "
The Jeong Clan said, "You must make arrangements for Dalang. Don't let him have any ideas."
Du Ruhui said seriously, "Don't worry, Madam. I know Dalang. Dalang is honest and kind by nature. He's an extremely honest person. He won't have any bad thoughts just because of what Erlang is like. "
"In his heart, Dalang will only be happy for Erlang."
"You don't have to worry about that."
"What's more, I'm now in the army of King Qin's Mansion. I'm King Qin's confidant. Once King Qin succeeds, I'll definitely be a noble. So, when the time comes, Dalang, as the eldest son, will inherit the family business. "
Du Ruhui said with a straight face, "I believe Dalang is also clear on this point. You don't have to worry about Dalang. Although he doesn't have much of a presence, Dalang will always be the mainstay of the Du Family. "
The Jeong Clan didn't say anything else after hearing this.
A moment later, Madam Zheng regained her usual temperament and was no longer sad. She smiled and said, "Husband, Erlang will definitely be rewarded for his meritorious service this time. What kind of reward do you think Erlang will get? "
Du Ruhui said, "I don't know what kind of reward Erlang will get, but I'm sure that Erlang's position in His Majesty's heart is no less than King Qin's. In fact, he's even more important than King Qin. Our kid planned the great victory at Yanmen Pass. After this victory, His Majesty will be very happy. "
After a pause, Du Ruhui said, "However, the great victory at Yanmen Pass was mainly arranged by Li Daen, the Second-rank Prince of Dingxiang. So, we can't gossip about this. In short, if you want to tell others, just say that Erlang was involved! You can't say anything else. "
"I understand!"
Although the Jeong Clan often went out to show off their son, she knew the severity of the matter and wouldn't speak carelessly.
Du Ruhui didn't say anything else. He went straight to the study and busied himself with his work.
