After half a month of bumpy itinerary, Li Haochen and his group finally arrived at Chang'an City, which had been away for more than half a year. Li Haochen asked everyone to go back to the Marquis' Mansion to settle first, and go to the palace to restore the order to Li Jiancheng first.

After entering Xuanwu Gate and walking in the white marble palace, Li Haochen felt very moved. The past is vivid in his mind. Now the prince has become the magnificent emperor of the Nine Five, and he is also a great minister and is extremely honored and favored. Everything seems like a dream, but it is vivid in his mind.

Li Haochen sorted out his court uniform, shook his head and shook his chaotic thoughts, and strided towards Li Jiancheng's study. As early as when he entered the palace gate, an eunuch told Li Haochen that Li Jiancheng would meet him in the imperial study.

Li Haochen followed the eunuch to the imperial study room, bowed and stood, waiting for the summons of Emperor Li Jiancheng. The eunuch went in first to report. After a moment, the eunuch shouted: "Your Majesty, the waiter of Xuanlecheng, and the Henan Road Secretary Li Haochen will meet you!"

Li Haochen took a deep breath to calm down his excitement, then stepped into the imperial study room, and saw Li Jiancheng who had been away for more than half a year, and hurriedly said, "I, Lecheng Hou, Henan Dao Military Advisor Li Haochen, pay homage to Your Majesty, Long live Your Majesty!"

Li Jiancheng treated Li Haochen with a gentle smile as always. He stepped forward and helped Li Haochen up and said, "Haochen, you are finally back! I have a clear mind when you come back! I have asked you to take care of Henan and investigate the breaking of the Yellow River on Henan Road. You have only been there for more than half a year and have given me a clear and clear Henan Road. You have done a good job! I am very pleased! Tell me how you want me to reward you!"

The emperor asked you what reward you would like, that would be polite. It would only be the emperor who would give you, not you ask the emperor for it. If you really ask for it, it would be a big taboo. Maybe the emperor would not punish you immediately, but I am afraid that your good days will come to an end. If you are too small and too poor in the future, you will be taken advantage of by the emperor and fall into a place of doom.

Li Haochen knew this well, so he quickly bowed and bowed again and said, "I am obeying the emperor's order to guide the Henan Dao for Your Majesty. It is all due to the great blessing of the emperor. Fortunately, I will not be humiliated. How dare I seek credit? Your Majesty's words are really a terrible consequence!"

Any emperor likes ministers who are capable but not meritorious. This is even more so in the feudal dynasty. Therefore, Li Jiancheng was still very satisfied with Li Haochen's attitude, so he smiled and said, "Don't be proud of his contributions, okay, Haochen! I did not read you wrong! I am worthy of being my talent!" As he said that, he looked at Li Haochen and continued, "I think about how to reward you! You made great contributions to me this time. If I don't reward you, I may lose the hearts of the people in the world! It will also make me a bad reputation with unknown rewards and punishments!"

Li Haochen knew that Li Jiancheng really wanted to reward him, but he hurriedly bowed and said, "Your Majesty! I am afraid!"

Li Jiancheng laughed and patted Li Haochen on the shoulder and said, "Haochen! Don't be afraid! I want to reward you!" After saying that, he pondered for a moment and said, "In terms of title, you are already a marquis, and you are the duke in Xiangshang. In terms of position, you are the master of Henan Taoist magistrate, and you are already the best. Well! Let's do this! Last time, I "don't bow to you, ride a horse on the imperial road, and you can go to the palace without listening to the announcement!" It is a reward for your performance in Henan Taoism!"

Li Haochen was very shocked when he heard this. This was a great courtesy. To say that these three things are actually more symbolic than actual meaning, and they have no practical use. However, this is definitely a symbol of identity. You must know that even the prince does not have such privileges. Only the prince can enjoy the last two items with such privileges in the world. As for "Don't worship the king" is definitely the only honor in the world.

In fact, Li Haochen himself didn't know that in the early Tang Dynasty, there were still many dukes who had such treatment, which was nothing. His teacher Li Jing had such treatment.

Li Haochen hurriedly bowed and said, "How can Haochen be so virtuous? How can you get such courtesy from Your Majesty! Haochen really dare not accept it!"

Li Jiancheng looked at Li Haochen with a sincere look on his face and wanted to refuse, so he patted Li Haochen again and said, "You can bear it! I say you can bear it, you can bear it! Haochen, remember that as long as you are dedicated to doing things for me, I will definitely give you less what I should give you! But if I don't give you, you can't think of me for it! Do you understand?"

Li Haochen knew that Li Jiancheng was hitting him, and said in his heart: "Fang Xuanling is really not wrong, Your Majesty really doubts about him!" Li Haochen could only sigh helplessly, and then said with a panic look on his face: "Your Majesty's teachings, I will remember them forever and never forget them!"

Looking at Li Haochen's fearful and terrified expression, Li Jiancheng expressed his satisfaction and nodded and said, "My dear, you have been working hard all the way and have been on the way to Chang'an during the New Year. I really can't bear it. Let's do this! I'll give you a few days off. Please adjust it carefully and discuss other matters later!"

The emperor said this to show compassion for his subordinates. If Li Haochen really thanked him for his gratitude at this moment, he would really have no eyes.

Therefore, Li Haochen hurriedly said: "I have rested all the way and am full of energy now. I am just waiting to share your worries for Your Majesty. If Your Majesty is giving me a holiday, I will feel like I am a corpse and a meal!"

Li Jiancheng shook his head with a smile and said, "It's better to be young! I feel a little overwhelmed now, and I don't have the energy as good as Haochen!"

Li Haochen heard this and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty is in his prime, so why can't you follow your heart? I think it's because Your Majesty has been burdened by trivial matters recently. Haochen is not talented. I hope to do my best to share your worries!"

Li Jiancheng nodded and said ok, then said with a serious look: "Haochen, the Turks are not peaceful recently! The ministers in the court have different opinions, and I can't make a decision for a while. I want to ask my dear what I think!"

Li Haochen pondered slightly and said, "I have also heard that the Turks were preparing to invade south. I don't know how true or false the news is. The Turkish Turi Khan Jie Li Khan was newly defeated by our heavenly dynasty. I think they should not and dare not launch troops to invade the world again! So what I want to know most now is whether the source of this news is reliable!"

Li Jiancheng nodded and smiled and said, "Haochen is Haochen, who hit the nail on the head. It is rumored that the Turks have launched troops to invade the world. In fact, this is not the case. I did not tell the other ministers the truth! I didn't expect you to see the problem at a glance!"

Li Haochen quickly bowed and said, "Your Majesty is wrong! I dare to ask Your Majesty, that's the truth..."

Li Jiancheng did not answer Li Haochen directly, but took two letters sealed with hot paint, and handed them to Li Haochen with a solemn look on his face: "Haochen, look!"
