The Supreme Prosecutor of the Tang Dynasty

Almost on the second day that Chen Qiu was talking about it, news came back that Pang Yong and three other generals, leading the Turkic army, had defeated Goguryeo.

Even the 'Emperor' of Goguryeo was captured alive and is currently being escorted to Chang'an.

In addition, the entire Goguryeo has fallen into the hands of the Tang Dynasty, and there is no other possibility from now on!

Pang Yong and other three generals left Li Jing in charge, and Pang Yong and Yuchi Gong were already on their way back.

As for why Li Jing is in charge, it's naturally because he also believes in Li! Relatively speaking, Li Er naturally trusts Li Jing more.

Yuchi Gong and Pang Yong are not brainless men, so after handing over the matter directly to Li Jing, they leave alone...

What's more, staying in Goguryeo may not be good news, but don't forget that those Turks are currently It's like a time bomb.

Although they won't cause trouble at the moment, what will happen after a while? Who knows if they will go crazy and not even care about their families.

Thinking this way, Pang Yong and Yuchi Gong were not dissatisfied at all. Instead, they returned to Chang'an with joy and prepared to receive their merits.……

……

"Hahaha, I am very happy to have captured Goguryeo this time. The whole world should celebrate!!!"

Looking at Pang Yong and Yu Chi Gong who had returned in triumph, Li Er burst into laughter and was extremely happy. No matter who he was, he could feel Li Er's heartfelt joy at this moment.

"This time, the expedition to Goguryeo is overwhelming, allowing us to increase the territory of the Tang Dynasty by another point! The two generals are indispensable!!!"

Li Er got off the dragon chair cordially, grabbed the hands of Pang Yong and Yu Chigong, and asked them about their welfare.

"Ahem……"

But at this moment, Chen Qiu coughed softly, and Li Er was stunned for a moment, then he reacted and said with a smile on his lips:"Of course, Chen Aiqing, you... are the first to do it!"

"ah? ? ?"

"Hiss...Master Chen, first achievement? ?"

"what's the situation? This battle has nothing to do with Mr. Chen, right? You didn't even go to the battlefield, how can you still remember your first achievement?"

"I wipe it! What's going on?"

The civil and military officials of the whole dynasty whispered in an instant...

People who knew the inside story, such as Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, etc., were not surprised, but for those who didn't know, this was definitely no less than a bombshell.!

After all, what does the first contribution mean?

That is the greatest contribution in something, and no one can compare with it! How much credit does it take to win Goguryeo this time? Even if it is smaller than the previous victory over the Turks, it must not be much smaller!

Such a first contribution The merit was directly attributed to Chen Qiu?

How could a person who never went to the battlefield get the first merit in the war? Isn't this nonsense?

Many ministers looked at each other, dumbfounded, thinking that Li Er was fooling around Nonsense.

However, Pang Yong and Yuchi Gong were convinced, nodding their heads and saying:"That's how it should be!""

"Indeed, if Master Chen had not been here, we would never have been able to defeat Goguryeo in such a short period of time, without even destroying every single soldier!"

"Mr. Chen is indeed an expert in predicting events, strategizing and winning from thousands of miles away, which really makes Yuchi Gong admire him!"

"If it hadn't been for Mr. Chen's cotton clothes and all the planning and preparation in advance, I'm afraid that even if we could defeat Goguryeo, we wouldn't be able to come back and see you all again.……"

Yuchi Gong gave a bitter smile, and everyone was even more shocked and asked questions one after another.

Seeing that Chen Qiu didn't say anything, Yuchi Gong didn't hide it. He directly told the matter about the cotton clothes, Chen Qiu's many previous instructions, and the Turkic Naxi soldiers' thoughts of rebellion... After the officials heard this, they were all shocked, with disbelief written on everyone's face.

"Oh my god, is that so? ? ?"

"hiss! In this way, the first achievement in this battle is really none other than Mr. Chen!"

"Yes, if it weren't for Mr. Chen, what would be the consequences? It's unimaginable……"

Hearing the crowd's admiration, and Li Er thinking hard about what reward he should give himself, the corners of Chen Qiu's mouth slowly raised.

This is the feeling you want, right?

As for what kind of gift Li Er wanted to give him, Chen Qiu didn't care. Let's just leave this matter to Li Er.

As long as he waits to receive the reward, why should he care? ? ?

……

The rewards for defeating Goguryeo are very generous, even very generous! After all, it was such a great achievement in opening up and expanding the territory, and Chen Qiu was the first to do so. There was no way Li Er could get less!

Therefore, Chen Qiu was also very satisfied and did not bother him again...

Time passed, and in a blink of an eye, it had entered deep winter, and it was not too long before the end of the year.

"Counting the time, it has been more than a year since I traveled back in time! Chen Qiu shook his head and smiled:"Looking back on this year, it feels like a dream.""

"However, next year should be better!"

In the cold winter, there is nothing to do, and Chen Qiu is too lazy to make any new inventions. We will wait until spring begins.

Cotton-padded clothes have become popular throughout Chang'an, and are spreading to surrounding cities...

Nowadays, all wealthy families, They all feel proud to be able to wear cotton clothes!

After all, this thing is not only warm and comfortable, but also a symbol of style. Anyone who has the ability will naturally want to wear one.

"I hope it will be better next year……"

"No, it can definitely be better!"

In his spare time, Chen Qiu began to plan for next year.

"Next year, many things can be put on the agenda! Whether it is cement or the further industrialization era, you can start preparing!"

"For example...steam engines and railroads!"

"I am very much looking forward to it. If I advance the industrial revolution to more than 600 AD, what kind of changes will happen to the world if it continues to develop?"

Today's Tang Dynasty, it may be too early to say that it is monolithic, but it is not far away from complete reunification. The complete reunification Chen Qiu wants is naturally not the territory, but... the people's hearts!

Officials above the court , in more than a year, a major blood change has been completed, and more than half of them have been replaced by new people! The remaining old ministers, excluding Cheng Yaojin, Yuchi Gong, and important ministers such as Changsun Wuji, Wei Zheng, and Fang Xuanling, There are not many left.

The newly appointed officials will naturally not behave like the previous officials. Even if they form cliques, they will not be able to do anything at this time.

So now, Chen When Qiu wanted to say something or made any suggestions in the court, there were fewer and fewer voices of resistance.

First, Chen Qiu was the consort of the two princesses and held great power. Li Er also trusted him very much. Generally, The officials did not dare to object at all.

Secondly, it was because these officials were 'sensible'.
