After learning that Xiao Ruxue had really gone to Liuzhou with Xu Qing, King Xian's mood became bad again.
On the way back to Beijing, the little girl was very unhappy because she did not encounter any robbers or bandits.
The bandits are probably not happy either. With so many troops leaving for several days, will they be allowed to do business?
When the army approached the capital, they had already seen the Emperor of Chu leading all the civil and military officials from the court, five miles out of the city to greet him. On both sides of the official road were the people of the capital.
At this moment, everyone's faces, from the emperor to the common people, were filled with smiles from the bottom of their hearts.
Chu defeated the grassland
Xu Qing also saw Su Qian and Xuan'er holding a child beside her in the crowd. Su Qian was wearing imperial uniform, so naturally she didn't have to crowd with the common people.
Originally, women were not qualified to welcome the triumphal army together with the officials.
But Su Qian is an exception.
Because my husband not only went out to fight, but also made the wolf live in Xu Mountain and carved his name on the stone.
You must know that since ancient times, there is only one person who has been enshrined as a wolf, and that is Huo Qubing, and there is only one person who has carved a stone and returned home, and that is Dou Xian.
Now they have three more Chu Kingdoms.
Feng Langjuxu also carved stones and erected monuments.
As the wife of the Marquis of Anding County, it was too late for many officials to fawn over her and prevent her from coming out to greet her husband. Only those who have no eyesight would be able to do that.
And didn’t you see who was standing next to you?
The virtuous princess and the royal concubine!
With these two protectors, it would be no problem not to go out of the city to meet my husband, but to attend a banquet in the Golden Palace.
And Su Jiyuan, who is standing among the hundreds of officials, is also extremely proud. Look at his son-in-law, who has been sealed as a wolf!
He said that his daughter was not wrong about the person at first, what an achievement of a famous general throughout the ages!
The city gate is not a place to express the pain of lovesickness. After the army is victorious, the court will hold a celebration banquet in the palace to entertain the generals with outstanding military achievements.
Xu Qing was actually very lucky that he just followed Xiao Ye to pick up the slack, but somehow he became the second greatest contributor to this battle besides Xiao Ye.
Originally, Xu Qing wanted Su Qian to go with him, but Su Qian refused. She didn't like the excitement and said she would go home and wait for him, so Xu Qing didn't force herself.
But what Xu Qing didn't expect was that the third prince and the fourth prince, two shameless people, also came to the celebration banquet.
The two of them agreed that without their efforts, the Chu State would not have defeated the grassland so easily.
You are right to say that. Although there is room for you, as two traitors, can you not be so complacent?
I thought it was two Central Plains generals who had sealed the wolf in Xu.
What are the traitors proud of?
Although he felt that the minds of these two young men might be different from ordinary people, Xu Qing did not say anything more.
The two of them were sitting at the celebration banquet, eating happily, just like the second prince back then.
Xu Qing was curious, had the prairie people never eaten?
But before Xu Qing could complain more about the third prince and the fourth prince, Xu Qing had work to do.
Since there was no shortage of military exploits on the battlefield, there was naturally no shortage of drinking at the celebration banquet.
Xu Qing was also curious. There was no mention of rewards, so why were they all replaced by wine?
This was given to him, and Xu Qing even wondered if Xiao Ruxue's wine was also on him?
Because Xiao Ruxue, a little girl, never drank a glass of wine from beginning to end. He and Xiao Ye filled their stomachs one glass after another.
The Emperor of Chu was also in a dilemma. They all said that rewards should be based on merit, but the three people who had the greatest military exploits this time were not so well rewarded.
Who has the greatest military exploits?
There is no doubt that it is Xiao Ye!
How to reward this?
If you offer a higher reward, you will be giving away your throne. The key is that you have to want it if you want to give it to him!
How should Xu Qing be rewarded for his second greatest military achievement?
Originally, the purpose of letting him go out this time was to let him do some fighting skills to block the mouths of these people in the court. The emperor brother also had a good plan with himself at the beginning.
Why are you planning, planning, and planning to seal the wolf as a coroner?
What on earth did the imperial brother ask him to do on the battlefield?
She is now a marquis, and if she can rise to the next level, she will be a duke.
What if he comes up with something new in another two years? Then he should break the earth and become the king. What about two more years after he breaks the earth and becomes the king? Should he abdicate and make way for someone wiser?
Can he afford it?
Xueer is even less rewarded.
Now there is no one in Chu State who can control her, so what do you want?
The key is that if she lacks something, she will get it herself, and there is no need to reward it herself.
The Emperor of Chu, who was already having a headache, felt even more uncomfortable when he saw the Xian Wang on the side. He was in charge of such a large logistics when they were fighting abroad. Now that he is back, he throws all the things on himself.
Have you been drinking one glass after another?
Sometimes I really want to throw away the throne. Whoever wants it can go...
At this moment, a forbidden soldier from outside came in, clasped his fists and bowed: "Your Majesty, the leader of the Wanyan Division wishes to see your Majesty."
"Leader of the Wanyan tribe?" Emperor Chu murmured and said, "Xuan!"
Today, the Chu State has returned from a great victory. Many of its subordinate countries have taken advantage of the day to send envoys with congratulatory messages in order to please the Chu State and win its favor.
Although the Wanyan tribe is now considered a vassal state of the Chu State, it was this battle that made you a vassal state. As for coming over now to rub salt into your own wounds?
But no matter what the Chu State thought, Wanyan Lu, the former second prince and now the leader of the Wanyan tribe, walked in with a congratulatory message in his hand and bowed his head, and said, "I congratulate your Majesty on opening up new territories and establishing a future for all generations."
base."
Emperor Chu couldn't help but be a little surprised when he heard the second prince's words. He had met the second prince before. At that time, the second prince gave him the impression that he liked to eat brains and was not good at it. But why did he speak so sonorously and forcefully now?
Is the etiquette so thorough?
Even King Xian couldn't help but raise his head and look at Wanyan Lu after hearing Wanyan Lu's words. How could this person be so flexible and flexible?
At the right time, the Emperor of Chu said, "The leader is now alive. Wei Zhong presented a congratulatory message and ordered someone to watch the leader's seat."
Wei Zhong, who was next to the Emperor of Chu, said "Hey", walked down the steps, took the congratulatory message from Wan Yanlu's hand, and then the servants brought new tables and chairs and placed them next to the third and fourth princes.
Wanyan Lu bowed again and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
After saying that, Wanyan Lu walked to his seat and sat down.
Now it was the turn of the third and fourth princes to tremble.
Although they said they abandoned the dark side and turned to the bright side, they could be said to have betrayed the Wanyan tribe. Could it be that the second brother came here to seek revenge?
Just when they were worried, Wanyan Lu saw that the solemnity just now disappeared without a trace. He gently turned his head to look at the third and fourth princes, and whispered: "Of these dishes, which one is the most delicious?"
