The lotus is blooming.

This is a summer in the eighth year of Zhenguan, early summer.

All things began to grow desperately, and there were endless lotus flowers and green leaves in Chang'an.

In Lishan, there is a long river and a lotus flower pond. Everything is so graceful.

The weather is new on March 3, and there are many beautiful people by the waterfront in Chang'an. The posture is strong, the meaning is distant and true, the texture is fine and the bones are even.

Although it is June 6th, there are indeed many beauties by the waterside in Chang'an.

Empress Changsun, the concubines, princesses from the harem, and her two daughters-in-law gathered in Lishui, Chang'an.

The palace maids were running back and forth, and the eunuchs were carrying tea back and forth. It was a busy scene.

Empress Changsun put on light makeup. Although she was already a mother, she was already very charming. With every movement of her eyebrows, the figure and elegance of the noble lady were clearly visible.

Soon, Empress Changsun smiled sweetly, showing her playful side again.

It is difficult for you to tell whether Empress Changsun is a woman in her thirties or a newlywed.

She is very happy.

The war that had lasted for half a year in Longyou was settled.

The Tang Dynasty was completely pacified.

His Majesty's letter came a month ago, and he will probably arrive in Chang'an today.

Beside the long Jinghe River, lotus flowers compete in beauty.

Li Wan and Wei Shuyi took off their shoes, exposing their beautiful feet and soaking them in the water.

Occasionally, a fish swims by, causing a burst of laughter like silver bells.

"Shuyi, when my husband comes back, the three of us will come over to soak our feet together."

Wei Shuyi nodded:"Yes, my husband said that the lotus is in full bloom and he has returned. What he said is true."

"Hey, sister Wan'er, be careful, your belly is so big! Li

Wan touched her belly and said with a kind face:"In three months, the little one will be born.""

Wei Shuyi nodded with envy, then looked down at her belly and pursed her lips.

This time the husband came back... Humph, don't be lazy. Soon.

Empress Changsun came over with a smile and saw Li Wan and Wei Shuyi said angrily:"We are all waiting over there. The army will rush back to Chang'an soon. Are you okay?" Let me go with you to the Suzaku Gate to greet you."

Having said this, Empress Changsun smiled even more, and her eyes were full of yearning. One is her husband, and the other is her son. The two of them returned to Chang'an together and accepted the support of thousands of people. This is such a dazzling moment!

Empress Changsun wants to take Li Wan and Wei Shuyi to enjoy this honor.

Li Wan and Wei Shuyi hurriedly wiped their feet:"Yes, okay, let's set off now. Empress Changsun nodded, and then directed several princes and princesses:"You all have a good time here, and I will bring your father and eldest brother here to celebrate in a while.""

When a group of princes learned that Li Yi and Li Shimin had returned triumphantly, they nodded excitedly and looked forward to it.

After Empress Changsun left, several of them whispered to each other.

"The imperial brother followed his father to destroy Tubo. When he returns to the court this time, his reputation will be unparalleled!"

"Yes, it’s a pity that I didn’t go to Tubo. If not, the credit would be mine."

"Fourth brother, you are so fat, are you looking for death?"

"Oops, Changle, are you teasing me?"

Several princes and princesses were quarreling with each other. The princes knew that they could not become the crown prince. With Li Yi here, no one could shake Li Yi's crown prince.

……

Suzaku Gate.

Wei Zheng and Ma Zhou were wearing crimson official robes.

Behind him are Shangguan Yi, Di Renjie, Fang Yiai, Du He and other students.

Everyone's eyes showed excitement and excitement.

After that, there are all the people in the 108th square of Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty.

Everyone was waiting quietly.

This battle greatly enhanced the country's prestige.

After Tubo was destroyed by the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty would be the king of this continent.

But at the same time, many people also began to be eclipsed.

More than 200,000 people went to this battle, but only more than 10,000 came back.

The lives of those 190,000 people will be buried in a foreign land forever.

The man here might be her husband-in-law, or his father, or the backbone of the family.

Maybe this time... they will never come back.

I can live in this stable world because of these heroes.

They are not afraid of war, but they need to defend their borders.

Because they don't send troops, the border areas will always be ravaged by foreigners.

The people living in Chang'an all understand this truth.

So when her man, his father, and his son go to fight outside the Great Wall, they won't cry.

But now... how can they be happy after losing their loved ones?

Therefore, the scene in Chang'an City seems a bit strange.

There was hope, fear, and despair...

Not long after, Empress Changsun brought Li Wan and Wei Shuyi to Du Ruhui and Ma Zhou.

A few people said hello, and then everyone's eyes became extremely expectant.

……

Chang'an Official Road, the road leading to Zhuque Gate is already overgrown with weeds on both sides.

The army of more than ten thousand people walked very slowly, very slowly.

Li Shimin sat on the horse with a sad expression. Fang Xuanling and Xue Rengui were guarding him, each with solemn expressions.

There is no trace of the excitement and excitement that comes after a triumphant return or the aftermath of a disaster.

Especially Li Shimin.

The closer he got to the Suzaku Gate, the less he wanted to go in.

He didn't know how to explain it to Queen Changsun.

I don’t even know how to talk to Li Wan and Wei Shuyi.

But you have to face what you have to face.

Li Shimin has never been a weak person. He took a deep breath and said behind him:"Enter the city!"

Boom, boom, boom!

The harsh horseshoes tread on the bluestone road.

The mottled city gate creaked open.

Inside the city.

Countless eyes were cast on this army of more than 10,000 people.

Li Shimin is still the same Li Shimin. After experiencing the battlefield, his vision has become sharper.

The first thing he saw was Empress Changsun, who stretched out her head anxiously.

Li Shimin's nose was sore. He raised his head and tried hard to hold back his tears, and then put on a stoic look.

The soldiers and horses were approaching, and they quickly walked to the front of the welcoming team.

Queen Changsun rushed to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin dismounted.

Empress Changsun said excitedly:"Your Majesty, you are finally back! Great! The Tang Dynasty will be victorious! Your Majesty will be victorious!"

Li Shimin nodded.

Empress Changsun cried with joy:"I've been really worried these days. I've been away for so long and I don't even know how to send a letter.""

"Okay, I forgive you."

"By the way, I held a banquet in Lishan Mountain, and all the princes and princesses were there"

"Your Majesty, let’s not go back to the palace yet."

Empress Changsun chattered a lot, suddenly realized something, and then looked behind Li Shimin:"Where is Yi'er?"
