Just as Li Jiancheng's army destroyed Gao Kaidao, Liu Wuzhou, Guo Zihe and others, he also recruited many enemy civil servants and generals, and his momentum reached the highest peak in history.

One day after Li Jiancheng pacified the northern princes, good news came from the armies of Li Shimin and Li Yuan in the west. Under the joint encirclement and suppression of their two armies, all the princes in the west were also completely wiped out.

At this point, Li Tang had completely unified northern China, and all the states and counties north of the Yangtze River had become Li Tang's territory.

Subsequently, Li Yuan and Li Shimin immediately led the army back to the court and moved Li Tang's capital from his hometown in Taiyuan to Chang'an, which was easy to defend and difficult to attack. At the same time, Li Yuan issued an imperial edict for Li Jiancheng to lead his army back to Chang'an to receive the reward.

After Li Jiancheng received the imperial edict, he naturally set off immediately without delay, and arrived in Chang'an one day later.

After Li Jiancheng returned to Chang'an, Li Yuan issued an imperial edict the next morning, making Li Jiancheng the prince of the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin the king of Qin, Li Yuanji the king of Qi, and Li Yuanba the king of Zhao.

Although Li Yuan had spoken about Li Jiancheng's appointment as the crown prince when he was in the capital of Taiyuan, it was after all that he had said it privately to his ministers and was not formal. Therefore, he announced the imperial edict in front of all the civil and military officials in the morning. , it’s a done deal.

As for Li Shimin's position as King of Qin, he was personally conferred by Emperor Yang of Sui Dynasty as early as the Sui Dynasty. However, he was the King of Qin in the Sui Dynasty at that time, and now he is the King of Qin in the Tang Dynasty. Naturally, they cannot be compared.

After the canonization was completed, Li Yuan said to Prince Li Jiancheng and King Qin Li Shimin:"Now King Qi and King Zhao are leading their armies to attack Yangzhou.

According to the battle reports sent back from the front line, although there are not many troops, their combat effectiveness is very strong, so the war at this time is has fallen into a stalemate.

Now the Tang Dynasty has unified the entire north, leaving only a few counties in the south. Among the various rebel kings in the south, the most powerful one is the Dragon Kingdom.

As long as the Dragon Kingdom is eliminated, the South can be pacified. Convenience is just around the corner.

Therefore, I know that you two have been fighting for several months, but now is not the time to rest. After the Dragon Kingdom is eliminated and the world is unified, there will be plenty of time to rest.

After you two go back today, you can rest for a while, and then immediately reorganize your troops. Ma, lead the troops southward in three days to assist King Zhao and King Qi to destroy the Dragon Kingdom and completely unify the world for the Tang Dynasty." After hearing Li Yuan's words, Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin were also filled with excitement, and immediately took the order and left.

That night, Li Jiancheng, who had become the prince, invited a group of his confidants to hold a banquet in the prince's mansion. Wei Zheng, as Li Jiancheng's most promising adviser at present, was naturally invited.

At the banquet, Li Jiancheng's confidants toasted to Li Jiancheng and congratulated him on becoming the crown prince. Wei Zheng was the only one who ate food and drank alone and did not interact with others.

After getting along with each other for a period of time, Li Jiancheng had already gotten to know this counselor named Ren Zheng. He knew that although he was talented in the world, he was relatively low-key and did not like to communicate with others.

So Li Jiancheng didn't take it to heart and continued to drink happily with everyone.

After three rounds of wine and five dishes, the banquet gradually came to an end.

At this time, Li Jiancheng stood up and walked to the center. _To read the ununderlined version of the novel, please download Fei Lu Xiao
