Chapter 15 There are ghosts in the court
"The Great General of the Expedition is back!"
The voice rang out in the Imperial City.
Countless people poured in the direction of the city gate, all with proud smiles on their faces.
They knew that the demon clan had invaded the east, and the little emperor sent Ao Guang to lead 100,000 troops to meet the battle, but the demon clan continued to support, and then another 100,000 troops went to support.
These days, their hearts are also pinched together, always paying attention to the changes in the situation in Tieguan City.
Finally, the emperor lived up to the news of the victory of the army, and they looked forward to the day when the expeditionary general's squad returned to the dynasty with joy.
The day had finally come, and the people craned their necks in anticipation.
"I heard that the little emperor had a clever plan this time, and sent support in advance, which caught the demon clan off guard!"
"Our little emperor can be regarded as grown up, and he gave the expeditionary general a death order, protect my people, protect my rivers and mountains!"
"I really want to serve the country, beat the demon clan, and watch them kneel on the ground and beg for mercy!"
"I'd love to follow along to see what the Expeditionary General looks like, but I'm more curious now about how our little emperor took the Expeditionary General for his own use. ”
"Look! The Great General of the Expedition is back!"
One of the people in the crowd shouted in the direction of the city gates.
The crowd looked in the direction of his finger.
I saw a man on a tall horse holding a halberd in one hand and wearing a red robe, leading tens of thousands of soldiers into the imperial city majestically.
Stomp, stomp!
Stomp, stomp!
The sound of horses' hooves shook the sky, and clouds of dust rolled up under their feet.
It can be described as unspeakable, making people dare not approach.
Without waiting for the people to come back to their senses.
Dozens of red-headed iron horses galloped towards the expeditionary general.
The red-headed iron horse is the emperor's royal horse team, which never appears easily, and once it appears, the little emperor will definitely appear.
"Phew!"
Soldiers on red horses tightened their reins and lined up on both sides of the street.
Stomp, stomp!
A crisp sound of horses' hooves came from afar, and the people looked wide-eyed.
A thin figure rode on a red-headed iron horse, dressed in golden armor, with a yellow robe flowing behind him, holding the reins, his immature face was full of firmness, and the majesty between his eyebrows was exhausted.
It's the little emperor! I really saw the little emperor!
The little emperor actually greeted the expeditionary general in person!
This is probably the highest specification of the royal family!
The eyes of the people were shining.
Ao Guang, who saw the red-headed iron horse, was puzzled, and when he saw the little emperor greet him in person, he really felt a little proud in his heart.
He thought that the little prince was polite when he said that he would greet him in person, but he didn't expect him to really come.
Wow!
Ao Guang and other soldiers dismounted together, saluted and shouted:
"The ministers returned to the court, fortunately His Majesty welcomed him in person, and the ministers were terrified!"
Lin Hao's gaze swept across the faces of everyone present, and he said loudly:
"Hurry up, my expeditionary general struck the demon clan, and signed a contract with him to ensure the peace of my Daqianhou National Railway Guancheng for ten years, and he is the hero of my Daqianhou Country!
"Yes!"
Ao Guang and everyone responded to the horse.
The two groups stayed in the street for only a few minutes before heading towards the palace.
Along the way, the people were extremely excited and shouted frantically.
"The little emperor is wise! the little emperor is wise!"
"The demon clan will never dare to come again!
"The little emperor and the expeditionary general join forces, and our country will be invincible!"
"The little emperor loves the people like a son and supports the little emperor!"
Lin Hao listened to the voices of the people, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
The will of the people is crucial.
Ao Guang looked at the little emperor who was riding a horse in front, it was so unreal, he couldn't even believe that it was this little emperor who was unpredictable and sent troops to support in advance, so he saved his life at the moment of crisis.
Cheng Zhou was full of joy when he looked at the little emperor at this time, he had already been impressed by his resourcefulness.
What they didn't know was that Fu Fei, who was hiding in the crowd, watched them enter the palace city until he left hatefully, carrying his burden and walking out of the city.
He originally wanted to see the joke of their defeat, but he didn't expect them to win, and he even slapped himself in the face, so he didn't have the intention of continuing to stay in the Great Qianhou Kingdom, and went back to the Baishan Marquis directly, and he wanted to bring the news back.
......
The main hall of the Royal Palace.
As soon as Ao Guang stepped into the main hall, all the officials said in unison to him:
"I've seen the expeditionary general! Congratulations to the general's class on returning to the court!"
This battle really startled him, he looked at Lin Hao in a military uniform on the throne, and his heart was a little empty.
Is this a Hongmen banquet? Or is he thinking about it? Not only did he greet him personally, but he also made the hundred officials congratulate me so formally, what was the little emperor thinking?
Lin Hao saw that Ao Guang was a little weak and afraid, and immediately explained:
"The general doesn't need to be afraid, this war contract alone is enough to stabilize the eastern part of my Great Qianhou Kingdom for ten years. ”
"It is even more to drive the demon clan to the foot of the western part of the Gaozhuo Mountain Range, such a feat is enough to make our country famous, such a battle, you deserve it!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty! It was Your Majesty who wisely sent troops here, if it weren't for that, our soldiers and tens of thousands of people would have to die at the hands of the demon clan. ”
Ao Guang's heart was full of gratitude, and he knelt down and thanked him.
Other courtiers chimed in:
"My king is wise!"
Ao Guang looked at the courtiers who were so cooperative, and a trace of strangeness flashed in his heart.
He always felt that something had changed in the court, but he couldn't say it for a while.
Lin Hao raised his hand and motioned for the eunuch to read out the reward
The eunuch read for a long time with a sharp voice, and the courtiers listened with envy.
One is a beautiful wife and concubine, the second is a family wealth, and the third is one person under ten thousand people, such a reward they dream of.
Lin Hao himself listened to it beautifully, but he didn't seem to be very happy when he saw Ao Guang's face, and he couldn't help but slander.
The reward was chosen by me personally, and he was not happy? His status is already so high, if he is promoted again, he is afraid that he will sit on my throne.
The eunuch continued to read:
"Adjutant General Cheng Zhou's timely support to protect our army from being annihilated, I am very happy, and I am named General Fengchi, leading 50,000 troops, and the expeditionary general is ......"
"Wait for King Xie Wu. ”
Ao Guang and the two of them shouted in unison.
Cheng Zhou never thought that he would be as famous as Ao Guang one day, and he was even more respectful to the little emperor.
But Ao Guang suffered a dumb loss, and his heart was extremely uncomfortable.
He returned victorious, which was a reward, but it had no practical meaning to him.
On the contrary, his soldiers and horses were to be given 50,000 to his henchmen, although he was a confidant, but no matter what, he was panicked in his heart, and he didn't know how to object.
"Congratulations to Your Majesty for pacifying the demon clan, my Great Qianhou Kingdom will be able to survive for generations!"
Qian Lao immediately heard the meaning behind this reward.
The little emperor is weakening Ao Guang's military power in disguise, and the military power is still distributed to Ao Guang's henchmen, so that Ao Guang has nowhere to express his opinions.
A flash of surprise flashed in Lin Hao's bright eyes,
He has never been much of a sycophant, and it is really rare to be obedient today.
Unexpectedly, when Qian Lao opened his mouth, all the courtiers patted their ass, and they naturally heard the meaning behind this reward.
Lin Hao was praised by a group of people for the first time, and he was really a little fluttering.
There is another person who feels illusory like him, that is Ao Guang, he never thought that he was just fighting a battle, and he couldn't understand the changes in the situation.
He saw submission and sincerity in the eyes of these flattering courtiers, and he even suspected that he had taken the wrong look.
He couldn't help but ask in his heart.
What happened to this imperial city after I went to war? How could these courtiers be so respectful to the little emperor? There are ghosts in this court.
