(Today's fifth chapter is delivered, and the fifth update is about 20,000 words. Please recommend votes, monthly tickets, and reward support!)

In the first year of Guangming, the war against counter-attacks entered a new stage.

First, Li Jing drove all the Huang Chao troops from all the prefectures and counties east of the Bian River in eastern Henan to the west of Bian River. Then Zheng Zhi led the Guanzhong coalition army to Longweipi to defeat the thieves. Then, many of the vassal states that had originally surrendered to Huang Chao all returned to the Tang Dynasty anyway. Huang Chao retreated from Chang'an in a panic. The Guanzhong coalition army was taking advantage of the victory, and the capital Chang'an would be restored immediately.

The situation in Hebei and Jianghuai areas behind enemy lines began to develop in a better direction. Li Jing defeated Hebei and seized the vassal states one after another. Gao Pian, Zhou Bao and others also suppressed many rebel teams in the southeast that took advantage of the chaos.

This moved and pleased the emperor Li Yan, who was in charge of Chengdu. He believed that the idea of ​​temporarily avoiding the thief's edge, retreating first and then advancing, and completely surrounding the thief and annihilation had been initially realized. The three hundred years of Li Tang was definitely not something that a few salt dealers could subvert.

However, while Huang Chao was retreating step by step and the Tang army was getting good news, Li Yan suddenly realized that in the past few years, Li Jing's army had become 400,000. Just now, Li Jing has invested four armies in the distant Northeast region and fought against almost all Hu soldiers outside the Tang army in the northeast. The total number of troops dispatched by the four armies was as high as 250,000, and there were 120,000 troops and 24 main forces.

Moreover, Li Jing still has the strength to maintain a 100,000 heavy army group in Hebei and a 100,000 heavy army group in Jianghuai and Shandong.

Moreover, this army also has extremely amazing combat power. In the past year, Li Jing led this Qin army to defeat the Goguryeo, Bohai people, Khitan people, Dongxi people, Liu Yue, Li Keyong, Han Jian, Wang Jingchong, Huang Chao, Gao Pian and others, and seized the vast areas of western Liaoxi, Andong, Rehe, Hebei, Beiping, Huaidong and Huaibei.

Emperor Li Yan only remembered that on the list of soldiers and horses of the Tang Dynasty, the Qin army was originally called Zhen**, but it was just a military town with tens of thousands of soldiers and horses under its jurisdiction.

Hold!

Li Yan couldn't help but curse, "Who gave Li Jing the power to expand so much?"

But when he looked back, Li Yan found that he was giving these rights to Li Jing little by little. So much so that Li Jing now has a strong military force, a large number of grains and a large land, but also has the envy of the commanders of the various towns in the world.

He personally issued an edict to the world and respectfully called Li Jing the emperor's uncle. He personally granted the title of Li Jing the Grand Marshal of the World and the King of Qin. He gave him a fake Huang Yue, and ordered the commander to hold the military affairs inside and outside, and controlled the troops and horses of the world. He also added all the positions of the Three Dukes to him, and also added the positions of the Shangshu Ling, the Zhongshu Ling, and the Shizhong Three Provincial Departments.

Until now, Li Jing almost established himself in the court. He mobilized troops and took charge of the military and political affairs of the world, and he did not need to go through the emperor as his emperor.

Previously, Li Yan was frightened by Huang Chao and fled to Xichuan. In order to gain Li Jing's support, he had to hand over these rights that should not belong to his ministers to Li Jing. Now, with the successive victory of the Tang army in Guanzhong, there were more than 200,000 troops controlled by Yang Fugong brothers. Li Yan's mentality began to change again. He felt that Huang Chao was no longer afraid now, and even the Tian Lingzi brothers, their threat to him was far less serious than that of Li Jing.

In his heart, Li Yan has already determined that Li Jing is the biggest threat to his imperial power today.

Before Huang Chao was wiped out, Li Yan had already begun to plan a plan to deal with Li Jing.

Li Yan's first step in temptation was to impose the conferment and reward the civil and military soldiers of the Qin vassal.

This trick seems simple, but it works very well.

At least during this period, Li Jing has been busy cleaning up the mess brought by this matter.

During this period, he was not very happy because of Li Yan's move. Under Li Jing, nine more princes, eighteen dukes, thirty-six dukes, seventy-two dukes, and one hundred and eighteen dukes. There were 126 dukes alone. Before that, there were only thirteen dukes in total. Not to mention this, there were as many as thousands of other titles of titles.

This does not include the countless incidents of the same-speaking chapter, generals, generals, governors, county magistrates, generals at all levels, etc.

Just like this, the order of the official title and medal rank of the Qin vassal was completely in chaos.

If you are proud of officials and stingy, it will be a great danger for a monarch. If you are abusing officials and ranks, it will be a great danger for a country.

When the order of the official title and the title ranks is in chaos, the order of the entire regime will be in chaos.

Li Jing has good tea but not wine. When it comes to alcohol, he himself can't understand how much alcohol he has. Anyway, he doesn't get much drunk when he is drunk. It's related to his mood. When he is in a bad mood, he will get drunk if he drinks a pound of Wuliangye, and he can still dance the swords with both hands into the sky.

However, Li Jing rarely drinks alcohol, and drinking can easily make things happen.

But during this period, Li Jing gradually started to drink too much. If he was asked to explain, he would definitely not admit that the Qin vassal is not going well now. The Qin army is getting tighter and tighter like a string. Although it has not yet reached the point of worrying, Li Jing is still worried. This is a bad start. Although the Qin army is strong, if the string becomes tighter and tighter, it will eventually break.

The Qin army is composed of countless such chains. The first chain breaks and may evolve into a chain reaction at any time.

A thousand-mile dike was destroyed in an ant hole.

Li Jing's explanation to his mother Han was to drink some alcohol to relieve fatigue and promote blood circulation. But in fact, he has started to drink more recently, and a large part of the reason is because of Liu Yunniang. Liu is not an ordinary woman. She can ride horses and shoot arrows, lead troops to fight, and of course she can drink very well.

Liu said very well: People who don’t drink can’t be reliable, and men who don’t drink can’t be reliable. If you are a man, just drink alcohol, a real man and drink strong alcohol.

Li Jing felt a little uncomfortable, and when he had a beautiful young woman drinking with him, he could refuse. After a while, Li Jing's worries did not decrease much, but his alcohol tolerance increased a lot.

Liu did not know the news that Li Keyong was alive. Li Jing had already communicated to those who knew the news. No one was allowed to spread the news, let alone tell Liu. Li Jing also moved Liu to a new mansion and added many guards to protect the safety of their mothers. In fact, Li Jing was worried that Liu would abandon him after he knew that Li Keyong was still alive.

One day, Li Jing said to Liu Yunniang tentatively: "I always think the corpse I found last time may not be Li Keyong's. If Li Keyong is still alive, what are you going to do? Stay or choose to leave?"

Liu Yunniang paused and then smiled slightly: "What do you mean? Didn't you confirm that the corpse belonged to him last time? Besides, it's been half a year. If he is really alive, there will be no news of the wind until now. In fact, I've already thought about it. Although it's a couple, the fate has ended. I don't think about him anymore, but now I'm just thinking about how to raise the two children around me."

"Is this gone?"

"I'm still with you!" Liu added. Li Jing felt that this sentence was not a lie, because he felt a strong sense of sincerity. But this did not completely satisfy him, because Liu did not ask questions about his choice and made a choice. She really thought that Li Keyong was dead, so she would say this, but if Li Keyong appeared, what choice would she make?

Can the two people's mutual liking be worthy of their husband and wife relationship?

"Drinking! What to do if you think of those things that don't exist, it's useless to think. Fill it, a man, a real man, a sip!" Liu Yunniang filled Li Jing with another glass of Wuliangye, which was strange. Liu Yunniang not only likes to drink, but she is different from most women. The eldest princess of the East China Sea, Li Huier and Gongsun Lan also like to drink, but they like to drink red wine. Zhang Huier and Xiao Yulou, Wang Wanjun, Pei sisters, and Da Yueer also drink, but they only drink those colorful and sweet fruit wines.

"Well, this is also interesting. Drinking white wine, you can enjoy it. Those who lead troops need to enjoy it. No matter what, you must not be embarrassed for a long time. Just like drinking white wine, you must be depressed and just be decisive. On the battlefield, there is a sudden change and you must not be hesitant. You must have the determination, whether it is victory or defeat. You must make a decision early."

Recently, Liu Yunniang has also felt a little worried.

Now she has made up her mind to leave the past behind, stride forward, and start a new life. To be honest, Li Jing is a good man. Even though he has many women, in addition to his two wives, there are also many concubines, and there are women outside. But after all, she doesn't ask for status, just needs a reliable shoulder and a broad chest to rely on, and doesn't care about those. Moreover, in fact, letting Li Jing enter her life over the past few days has indeed made her feel a kind of ease and pleasure that she had never felt when she was with Li Keyong in the past.

Whether on or under the bed, this is a man who is hard for women to say.

But the only thing that made her worry was her children, her and Li Keyong's two children. A few days ago, the three-year-old daughter Hu Niu treated Li Jing as her husband and called him Aye. Yesterday, Li Luoluo, who was over two years old, also followed Niu Niu and called Li Jing Aye.

Although Li Jing was not unhappy, she smiled and answered with her two children in her arms.

But the more Li Jing did this, the more worried she was.

After all, Li Jing has always been hostile to Li Keyong, and Li Keyong died in the battle with Li Jing. The children are ignorant now, but if they grow up in the future, they understand how much harm they will cause to them by killing their fathers and enemies as fathers?

Moreover, letting her husband's children recognize Li Jing as their father is too cruel to Li Keyong.

If this continues, something will happen sooner or later.

Another thing that also made Liu Yunniang feel a headache. She should have had her period yesterday. Her period has always been very punctual, but it was late yesterday. Today, it has not appeared. Moreover, she felt her **smalls were a little swollen.

She was over the age of development, and her menstrual period was slow to come, which made her think of a possibility, who had already given birth to a child.

Maybe she is pregnant.

Calculate the time, this child will never be Li Keyong.

Apart from Li Keyong, she only slept with Li Jing alone.

If you are really pregnant, then the child may only be Li Jing's.

This possible pregnancy made her feel upset. She told herself that since she chose to be with Li Jing, she should give birth to this child. Although Li Jing has many wives and concubines and many children, this is the crystallization of the two and has important significance.

But she thought to herself that if she gave birth to this child, it would seem unfair to Hu Niu and Luoluo, the two children born to her ex-husband.

She kept hesitating whether she should tell Li Jing about this news, but she wanted to tell him after confirming that she was really pregnant, so as not to be happy. This matter has been in my heart for many days, and my physical reactions have become more and more familiar. Although she has not been to see the doctor for a long time, her intuition told herself that she really has it.

When she was alone at home, she touched her flat belly, which was still as usual, and looked at the two children who were innocent and innocent in front of her, not knowing what to do!

That night, after Li Jing finished handling the matter, he came to Liu Yunniang's mansion.

Liu welcomed Li Jing into the room and suddenly said, "You go and invite a doctor tomorrow."

"What's wrong? Where are you feeling uncomfortable?" Li Jing asked with concern.

"Just hire a doctor tomorrow." Liu Yunniang said calmly.

Li Jing was startled and hurriedly asked Zhao Jiang to invite the best doctor in Yanjing City, the young genius doctor Liu Yueru.

After Liu Yueru finished taking the pulse to Liu Yunniang, she smiled and said to Li Jing: "Congratulations to your highness, Madam, this is a happy lady. The pulse is very stable, and both adults and children are very good. Next, as long as you pay attention to rest and nutrition, you will be safe."

"Pregnant?" Li Jing asked in surprise.

Liu Yueru nodded, "Madam, this is her second child, so as long as you pay attention to maintenance, it will be very smooth."

The body of Li Jing's family is regularly checked by Xiao Yixian. Li Jing has a more prosperous descendant fortune than ordinary people. At his age of thirty, he already has twenty-two sons, eighteen daughters, and a total of forty children. He can be said to have many children and many daughters, and his branches and leaves are flourishing.

She basically diagnosed so many children and delivered them with fetal care. She said that Liu was happy, so there would be no mistake.

Li Jing's heart was filled with surprise. No matter which woman was pregnant with him, he would be happy as long as it was his woman.

Seeing Li Jing so happy, Liu Yunniang felt complicated, and finally decided to take care of her baby and give birth to the child.

The next day, when the maid Hongying and Qingque accompanied Liu to the street to buy the fabric for children's clothes, two guests sat in the second floor of the Xiangrui Teahouse on West City Street, Yanjing City, facing the window. The tea guest facing the stairs was covering the bowl with a graceful attitude, pulling the tea moer from the cover bowl, while the other guest had a big beard and wore a soft hat. His eyes under the hat were looking at the street scene casually.
