Chapter 439: Honest people also have anxious eyes
Sitting in a boat, eating fruits and humming songs, Qin Hao finally returned to Chang'an City.
Chang'an City is as prosperous as ever. The war that just ended seemed to have nothing to do with the people of Chang'an. Those who should drink wine and those who should eat meat eat meat. The clothes and hats of all nations still snatched their heads to worship the crown, and there was no splash at all.
As soon as he got off the boat, Qin Hao was taken to the palace for a banquet by Li Chengqian. I don’t know what he was happy about, whether he was celebrating the victory of the army flag? Or was he simply celebrating that he had successfully supervised the country again and the position of the prince became more stable.
At the banquet, Li Chengqian sat in the main seat, Hou Junji sat in the left hand position, and Qin Hao sat in the right hand position. Further down there were a large number of civil and military ministers and officials from the Eastern Palace who were friends with Li Chengqian. This was a bit too high-profile.
Qin Hao was really refusing, so he had to sit down and drink two cups, intending to drink for a while before he recovered, and said goodbye before he recovered. As a result, he didn't eat three cups, and saw Hou Junji's face turned gloomy, as if everyone owed him tens of thousands of dollars, and he didn't have a good face to him.
Then Hou Junji snorted coldly and said, "I have never been to the battlefield to fight a sword and a shot. I have actually made the first military meritorious service. Humph, it's really ridiculous. It's a pity that I think the saint is confused."
Qin Hao looked at him innocently. What's going on? What's wrong? I didn't mess with you, did you take the gun?
After all, this is an elder, and he is a county duke and a county duke, which is one level higher than him, so Qin Hao is not good at talking, so he had to smile at him in embarrassment, knowing that he is in a bad mood and doesn't want to be as knowledgeable as him.
Everyone was very embarrassed for a while. There was no need to say the small officials below and didn't dare to speak at all. Li Chengqian didn't know how to be this peacemaker. The key was that Hou Junji just said that he scolded Li Shimin together, which was very embarrassing.
This kind of thing can be big or small, to put it in a small way, this is a complaint at the table. Even if it reaches Li Shimin's ears, Li Shimin's laughter will pass. But if it goes in a big way, it is to criticize the court. Xue Wanche during the reign of Emperor Gaozong was killed by his whole family because of such nonsense.
So it was natural that Li Chengqian led everyone to laugh, pretending not to hear it, and doing whatever he should do.
But in this way, Hou Junji might feel that he was ignored, and he was even more furious. He threw his cup with a thunderous sound and said angrily: "Martial Warrior has been in Xining City for five years, but he has not been able to restore the four counties of the Han Dynasty. Once I went there, I built two counties of Wuwei and Zhangye in just half a year. Why did I not only fail to do it? I risked my life to fight on the battlefield, and there was no reward at all. Some people built some broken ship but wanted to be promoted for their merits. I was not convinced!"
As he said that, Hou Junji stared at Qin Hao with his bull eyes, which scared Qin Hao so much that he thought this guy was going to beat him. Fortunately, he was a little rational, so he just snorted and left.
Qin Hao couldn't help but say in surprise: "What's wrong with him? Was he bitten by a dog? Or did he accidentally bit the dog?"
Li Chengqian smiled bitterly and said, "You have just returned to Beijing, and you may not know that although Duke Chen performed bravely in this battle, the court believes that he indulged and even encouraged his subordinates to capture Western Turkic slaves in Xining City. Not only was he unethical, but he was also the culprit of this battle. You also know that in the Persian battle, there was actually no fight at all. The Dashi army was not interested in fighting, and the vanguard troops of Su Dingfang alone had defeated them. Therefore, this time when he returned to Beijing, Duke Chen not only did not receive a reward, but was exempted from the position of Anxi Protectorate and was at home to be punished. This may be a bit unfair in his heart. Zhenheng please don't be surprised."
"Haha, how dare I behave like Duke Chen?

----This is a gorgeous dividing line---
Those who have made great contributions come and drink, but Your Highness, Duke Chen, is now a little unbalanced in his mentality. It’s better for us to provoke less in the near future.”
This guy was able to rebel by Hou Junji in history. Now, Hou Junji's situation is similar to that in history. Qin Hao is really afraid that Li Chengqian will be kicked by a donkey.
Of course, Qin Hao didn't care too much about this. Whether Hou Junji rebelled or not, as long as he didn't involve Li Chengqian, it would have little to do with Qin Hao. Only by fooling around would he rebel in the Zhenguan Dynasty. Li Shimin's prestige in the army is no joke.
If he did not rebel, he would have to endure it with the great achievements made by Hou Junji back then, even if he punched himself, he would have to endure it. He was a real hero who was a descendant, not something he could compare with later generations.
Let me say a few more words, there is no record of the merits made by Hou Junji in history. In fact, in Qin Hao's opinion, there is no need to deceive himself like this. In the entire Xuanwu Gate Incident, a total of five Dukes were granted, including him Hou Junji. In addition to kidnapping Li Yuan, what other credits are inconvenient to record and worthy of being granted Dukes? Li Yuan could not be really stupid like this in history books.
With such a credit, this guy will never die even if he is slutty. Qin Hao can't afford to offend him, but I can always hide.
The facts proved that he was really fucking unable to hide. When he returned home, he found that his house was in a mess and no one came out to greet him. After inquiring, he found out that Hou Junji had some mistakes and actually came to his house to make trouble. According to him, he was disliked the plaque of Duke Rong's mansion in his mansion and wanted to smash the plaque.
Qin Hao quickly looked up and found that the sign was still hanging on the door. He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and asked, "Didn't hurt anyone?"
"have no idea."
"have no idea?"
"As soon as Duke Chen came to make trouble, his wife came out. The wife held a stick and Duke Chen was empty-handed. The two of them beat him for a long time and beat him away."
"Fuck, Hou Jun gathers my god, you uncle!"
After cursing, Qin Hao hurriedly went to see his baby wife. Although Li Xin was skilled in archery and horses, she was a woman after all. Although she was a casual woman, Hou Junji was a general on the battlefield after all. How could you be a great general have the courage to fight with a woman and a child?
Sure enough, when he entered the room, Li Xin's entire right foot was swollen, and it was already swollen. It was probably because of the cracks that he had been hit. Li Xin beat him away. It was obvious that Hou Junji was panicked after he injured him.
Qin Hao's face was so gloomy that water was about to drip out. He still held back his heartache and said with concern: "Does it hurt?"
"It's nothing, it's just a trauma. Humph, Hou Junji is not very strong either. I've been hit by more than ten sticks. If you don't believe me, you will definitely look at him tomorrow. My face will definitely be like a pig's head. I was shocked when I kicked him. It's okay."
"It's okay! Are there so many guards at home? What about the flying cavalry in the palace? What does it mean to let you, a woman, take action? Mom, come on, give me a hundred whip for everyone in the mansion!"
Li Xin smiled and advised, "Okay, don't do this. You can't be angry anymore after you recover from a serious illness. Hou Junji himself is here. Which servant dares to attack him? Listen to me and don't worry about it. Let my father deal with him."
