Chang'an.
Jinluan Palace.
Li Tianmin waited anxiously and felt uneasy.
It has been many days since Li Yuanzu set out with his army. Calculating the time, he should have arrived at Zijin Pass long ago.
But why is there still no news at all?
I don’t know whether I will win or lose.
I don’t know if Zijin Pass has been saved.
This made Li Tianmin's heart twitch all the time.
Extremely uncomfortable.
The ministers, like Li Tianmin, were anxious every day and worried about the war in the north.
Some people even speculated that the prince might have concealed it because of the unfavorable outcome of the war.
Of course, until the battle report arrives, everything is just speculation.
No one dared to say much.
During today's court meeting, Li Tianmin was distracted many times.
The officials could also see that Li Tianmin had been worried about the situation in the north, so he was in a trance.
"Your Majesty? Your Majesty?"
The eunuch beside him shouted several times before Li Tianmin came back to his senses.
"What's wrong?"
Li Tianmin asked in a daze.
"Your Majesty, the Minister of Household Affairs has reported three months of taxes to the imperial court."
The old eunuch reminded.
Li Tianmin then looked at the Minister of Household Affairs under the main hall.
"Thank you for your hard work, my dear."
The Secretary of the Ministry of Finance was a little embarrassed.
"It is my duty to share your Majesty's worries."
After saying that, he returned to his seat in a polite manner.
The atmosphere in the hall became dull.
Li Tianmin took a deep breath.
“I don’t know what’s going on with the war in the north now.”
The ministers looked at each other in shock.
"Your Majesty, the Crown Prince went on an expedition in person and must have returned with a great victory. I guess the situation in the north is not clear at this moment, so the Crown Prince did not report back."
"Yes, the war in the north will obviously not come to an end soon. Your Majesty, please wait patiently."
"Perhaps in another day, the crown prince's good news will come."
Having said that, the war in the north is related to the safety of the Tang Dynasty. How can Li Tianmin feel relieved with these few words.
plum
Tianmin's brows were still furrowed, and his heart was extremely worried.
"No, I must know the situation in the north."
Li Tianmin didn't want to wait any longer.
He plans to send someone to the north.
No matter what the situation is, at least let yourself know.
No matter how bad the situation is, you can still find a way to solve it as soon as possible.
Instead of sitting here and waiting, knowing nothing and being unable to do anything.
"Xuanjing Division!"
"I'm here!"
Zhang Qian, the head of the Xuanjing Department, immediately knelt down and saluted.
"Send someone to the north immediately, the sooner the better, to find out the situation in the north clearly!"
"yes!"
Zhang Qian got up and was about to go do it.
suddenly.
A forbidden soldier hurriedly ran in.
"Battle report! Battle report!"
"The battle report from the North is here!"
Running and shouting at the same time.
All the officials were excited.
Li Tianmin also shook his hands.
"Quick! Let him in quickly!"
The Imperial Guard ran into the hall without any hindrance.
"Your Majesty, this is the battle report from the North!"
He held a jade slip in his hand.
"Show it to me quickly!"
Li Tianmin urged.
Zhang Gan had quick eyes and quick hands and immediately delivered the jade slip to Li Tianmin.
Li Tianmin quickly checked the battle report in the jade slip.
At this look, Li Tianmin's expression completely changed.
When the officials saw Li Tianmin's face, their hearts trembled.
"It's broken, it's broken! I'm afraid it will be a failure!"
"Your Majesty's face is so ugly. Has Zijin Pass been lost?"
"Hiss! If this is really the case, the Northern Territory will be doomed."
"Is something going to happen to the prince?"
In the hearts of the ministers
They were all muttering secretly.
They all thought that with Li Tianmin's face changing so drastically, this battle report must be very bad.
"Hahahahaha!"
Suddenly, Li Tianmin laughed.
The whole person was laughing so hard.
Exaggerated laughter echoed throughout the Jinluan Palace.
This made the officials look confused.
Totally don't know what's going on.
"It's bad, it's bad. I'm afraid your majesty is too stimulated and is a little abnormal!"
"Oh my God! Your Majesty is so angry. How bad is this battle report?"
