Chapter Nine hundred and fiftieth minister has a request
Although Jiangzhou Bing General Zhou Wanggeng made mistakes before, he assisted General Lin Ye in quelling the rebellion, and he was considered to have returned from his lost ways. Therefore, Ning Weimo announced on behalf of the court that Zhou Wanggeng and his men would not be held accountable for their crimes.
Because the situation in Jiangzhou is still unstable, especially since there is no one in charge of Qingshan City, General Lin Ye and General Ning Haitang have to rush back to Geling and cannot go to Qingshan City to handle the follow-up matters, so Ning Weimo decided to
Zhou Wanggen temporarily took over the power of state administration and rushed back to Qingshan City to deal with the aftermath.
Zhou Wang was even more happy than Wang Wang.
At the celebration banquet, Ning Weimo held Zhou Wanggeng's hand and said a lot of words. Zhou Wang was even more flattered and became grateful.
Ning Weimo told Zhou Wanggeng that the stability of Qingshan City is better than anything else now, and asked him to rush back as quickly as possible to take over the power and not to delay the important affairs of the court. This way, he can repay his merits after returning.
Moreover, Ning Weimo also clearly told him that Xiang Jinwu would be appointed as the governor of Jiangzhou, and he, Zhou Wanggen, would be the general of the Jiangzhou garrison.
So Ning Weimo hoped that he could rush back as soon as possible to clear the obstacles for Xiang Jinwu to go to Qingshan City to become the chief official.
After receiving Ning Weimo's affirmation and encouragement, Zhou Wang burst into tears of gratitude.
Early the next morning, Zhou Wanggen took several hundred of his soldiers and left early. His tens of thousands of troops were handed over to Xiang Jinwu to lead back to Qingshan City.
After walking for three days, Zhou Wang was in a hurry and insisted on crossing the sea at night regardless of the wind and waves on his way back. As a result, the boat accidentally hit a reef, and the boat accidentally hit a reef.
All the people on the boat were killed in the river.
After the news came back, Ning Weimo burst into tears and beat his chest, saying that Dayu had lost a loyal minister and good general.
Two days later, the Cowardly Army encamped.
Sui Qing waited for everyone to leave before entering Lin Ye's tent and saw Lin Ye packing his luggage.
"Going to Yunzhou?"
"Um."
Lin Ye responded and then said: "Her Royal Highness, the eldest princess, and I are taking the Yunzhou from Shangyang Palace. It can't carry you. You can go overland, so there's no need to worry."
Sui Qing nodded: "I know."
He poured himself a glass of water, then sat down and wiped his long knife.
"Zhou Wang is a martial artist and quite difficult to deal with. He kills everyone first and then scuttles the ship to make sure no one is left behind."
Lin Ye said: "Brother wants to stay in Jiangzhou. In fact, I hope you..."
Sui Qing went and said, "No need to talk."
Lin Ye smiled and shook his head.
Sui Qing went and said, "Big brother has his own helpers, and another group of brothers will come over to help him."
Lin Ye said: "I have never asked you how many brothers we have helping secretly?"
Sui Qing went and said: "There aren't many people on my side, but there are more people on brother's side. In addition to our two brothers, there are two other teams, but it's not time to show up yet. You will know later."
Lin Ye said: "You should still treat me like a child."
Sui Qing went and said, "You are."
Lin Ye smiled helplessly.
Sui Qing went to wipe the cold blade of his knife again and again. He looked even colder than his knife, and he seemed to always have an unsmiling look.
Lin Ye had never seen him smile a few times. Looking back carefully, it seemed that he had never seen him smile before.
"You should smile more from now on."
Lin Ye said: "I didn't like to laugh before, but later I discovered that smiling more is actually good, and people will become better."
Sui Qingqu: "No."
Lin Ye curled his lips.
He packed his luggage and looked back at Sui Qing: "You are always so cold, how can you find your mother-in-law in the future?"
Sui Qing went: "No need."
Lin Ye said: "Nonsense, who doesn't need a mother-in-law? You have to think about yourself. I will be the godfather of your child in the future..."
Before he finished speaking, Sui Qingqu had already stood up: "Boring!"
As he spoke, he glared at Lin Ye, then fumbled around in his arms for a while, took out a small cloth bag, and opened it. Inside was a beautiful carved wooden horse pendant, with a red rope on one end and a tassel on the other.
He put it on the table: "For children...it's calculated, it's a horse."
After saying that, he turned around and went out. Lin Ye was stunned.
After a long time, Lin Ye rubbed his sore nose, lifted the little wooden horse up and looked at it for a long time.
"It's so ugly..."
As he spoke, Lin Ye put the little wooden horse into the innermost part of his backpack and carefully wrapped it with his clothes, lest it get bumped.
At this moment, Sui Qing opened the curtain and poked her head in: "Have you chosen a name?"
Lin Ye: "It's still...early."
Sui Qing went and said, "Tell me when you take it."
Then he left again.
"You guy..."
Lin Ye exhaled a long breath, but it was not a turbid breath, but an indescribable feeling, probably the purest joy.
Not long after Sui Qing left, the curtain of the big tent was opened again. Lin Ye turned around and said, "You are a big man, mother-in-law..."
Just after he finished speaking, he saw Ning Haitang froze at the door. Probably because of the words "you are a big man", she seemed to frown slightly.
Then a package was thrown over and hit Lin Ye's arms.
"Not for you, for the kids!"
After Ning Haitang said this, he turned around and left. Lin Ye hurriedly chased him out.
"I didn't mean you..."
Lin Ye took Ning Haitang's arm and was about to explain softly when he heard someone in the distance exclaimed: "Oh no, two generals????????????????
The fight is about to start again!”
As soon as the shouting ended, countless people came running over from all directions, one by one, as if they wished that rows of small benches should be set up so that they could sit and watch.
Lin Ye looked at this posture, was silent for a moment and then asked: "If we don't fight now, wouldn't it be a bit unreasonable?"
Ning Haitang's heroic face turned slightly red, and she snorted: "Childish!"
Then he punched Lin Ye in front of the door. Lin Ye parried the punch and retreated while fighting. Soon the two people left the camp again, and they didn't know where they went.
A group of onlookers looked disappointed.
"Why did the two generals fight again?"
"Why did you say again?"
"Yes...why did I say again?"
"Oh, I understand. When you say you went out again, is it because the two generals were in other camps before and went out fighting."
"I guess the fight between the two generals caused the mountains to collapse and the earth to break apart. Naturally, they are extremely powerful and they are afraid of hurting us."
"It makes sense, but it's a pity that we didn't have the opportunity to see the two generals fighting."
The two female generals who had followed Ning Haitang stood there, listening to the men from the Qie Mang Army talking about each other. The two looked at each other and chose to shut up.
A cowardly general asked them both: "Two generals, when the two generals fought at the Geling City Post House, it was said that even the Post House collapsed. Is this true?"
The two female generals also blushed for no reason, snorted at the same time, and left.
This made the men of the Cowardly Army a little confused, thinking to themselves, these two female generals are so arrogant?
One of the female generals walked away and whispered: "Can't you wait for our general?"
Another female general said: "No wait, those two...those two are fighting. God knows how many hours have passed. We will return to the camp first, just in case we are attacked by the cowardly army again."
People keep asking the two generals about the fight in the post house, what should I say?"
After discussing it, the two decided to leave first.
Their guess was correct. Who knows how many hours it would take for this fight to end. After all, it seemed to be farther away from the creek than the last time.
But, it doesn’t have to be a creek...
Castle Peak.
Xie Yunxi sat there quietly, watching Xiaohe busy packing things. She originally wanted to help, but Xiaohe wouldn't allow it and pinned her down to prevent her from moving.
"We don't need to bring so many things. When we go back to Yunzhou, we are going home. We have everything at home."
"That won't work. Everything in the house has been stored for too long. It needs to be washed before it can be used, or it needs to be replaced with new ones."
Xiaohe packed up the things one by one. Looking at her appearance now, she seemed to have a bit more charm than before, and her complexion seemed to be better.
"Miss, when we return to Yunzhou this time, do we have to wait until the baby is born before going to Geling?"
"Well, it should be."
"Miss, I was still worried that if I gave birth to a baby in Geling, there would be criticism from the courtiers. Now it's okay. Let's go back to Yunzhou and avoid a lot of unnecessary trouble."
"It must have been arranged by His Majesty. He probably doesn't want us to listen to gossip in Geling."
After Xie Yunxi said this, he thought about the future when Lin Ye became a father, and he would be a majestic general, but he was holding the child carefully and seemed a little at a loss, so he couldn't help but laugh.
At this time, Pang Panghai arrived at the entrance of the courtyard. He did not enter directly, but first saluted outside the door.
"General Pang, come in."
When Xiaohe saw Pang Panghai arriving, he subconsciously asked: "The general is back?"
Pang Dahai shook his head: "The general said that after we pack up in Qingshan City, we take a cloud boat to Geling first. He wants to pack some things in Geling."
Xiaohe was a little confused: "Even so, why didn't the general come back? Can we go to Yunzhou together?"
Pang Panghaidao: "There are still some military matters to be dealt with, and there are also many local matters that require the general's decision."
Xie Yunxi nodded and said: "There's no rush, we can wait for the general to come back before setting off."
Pang Panghaidao: "What the general means is that after His Highness packs his things in Qingshan City, he will wait for Master Ning to come and pick him up in a cloud boat. He will come back after he has taken care of the military affairs."
Xiaohe said: "Then you should stay with the general to protect him. You shouldn't run back by yourself. To pass the message, you can just send someone back."
Hearing this, Xie Yunxi squinted his eyes and laughed again.
Pang Panghai said to himself: "I protect the general... If the general needs my protection, then the general is still the general."
At this time, Lin Ye had already mounted his Zhaoye Qilin, running towards the north alone.
The speed of Zhaoye Qilin was as fast as lightning.
More than ten days later, Geling City.
Early in the morning, when the city gates were opened, the civil and military officials from all the dynasties were already in the main hall of Zhenyuan Palace. Today was the great dynasty meeting, and almost all the officials of the fifth rank and above in Beijing had arrived.
The majestic main hall is large enough, but it still cannot accommodate so many people. In the open space outside the main hall, low-level civil and military officials are separated into two rows.
Today, Xin Yanque is sitting on the dragon throne, squinting his eyes as if he is about to fall asleep.
Gu Xiujin is reading the battle report of Southern Xinjiang.
The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty were shocked when they heard that General Lin Ye had put an end to the rebellions in Jiangzhou and Nanzhou in less than a year.
Although they had gotten some news before, they still found it unbelievable when they heard it now.
It took less than a year from the dispatch of troops to the victory. In total, the actual start of the war may only take three or four months?
In such a short period of time, two rebels with more than 500,000 troops were wiped out. Even the so-called invincible Taizu Dayu would not be able to surpass this kind of thing.
"My dear friends."
After Gu Xiujin read out the battle report, Xin Yanque opened his eyes and said, "The general has made extraordinary achievements again and deserves a reward. My dear friends, you may wish to discuss today what kind of reward I should give to the general?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the people at Yushitai immediately jumped out and wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to play Lin Ye. Of course, it was impossible to succeed, but by participating now, they could suppress the reward for the general.
Just as he was speaking passionately and scolding Lin Ye for nothing, someone outside the door suddenly shouted: "General Lin Ye of the Cowardly Army has entered the palace!"
At this moment, Lin Yehu walked into the hall with a dragon's pace. The quicksand armor was still there, and the bright red cloak was swinging back.
After entering the palace, Lin Ye clasped his fists and leaned forward: "Your Majesty, Lin Ye, please pay homage to your Majesty!"
Xin Yanque was surprised and happy, then deliberately suppressed his mood and pretended to ask with a straight face: "Lin Ye, why did you suddenly return to Beijing when you were not on the battlefield?"
Lin Ye was in the main hall, in front of the civil and military ministers, clasping his fists and saying loudly: "If you are brave, your majesty, please grant me a marriage to the eldest princess!"
