The king who came out of the palace gate strode forward with an eager face, and the palace maids and eunuchs behind him followed closely, and the royal guards who came out first were already lined up on both sides.

The king walked briskly towards the dismounted generals on the opposite side, and greeted the victorious generals who had fought bloodily for their country with sincerity on their faces.

The victory of the Northern Expedition also occupied almost all other countries in Beizhou, which is not only to expand the territory, but also to unify the unification of Beizhou!

Now that the generals who have completed the hegemony have returned triumphantly, how can the king not go out to greet him.

It stands to reason that he should lead hundreds of civil and military officials out of the city to greet him to be worthy of this great feat, but I don't know why the king didn't do it.

From the king's eager, sincere face, it was clear that he was not dissatisfied with the triumphant soldiers, but why?

At this time, the generals at the entrance of the square also dismounted, and when they saw the Royal Forest Army lined up and the king personally greeted them, somehow, there was no excitement on their faces.

Leaving the horses in the care of a special person, the generals strode together towards the king opposite.

Walking in the forefront is naturally the commander of the Northern Expedition, Yu Tianmad, and the crown prince Wu Honglie. Behind them were the other generals of the Northern Expedition, among whom the chief soldier of Qingfeng Pass, Zhu Gang, who had entertained Yu Xiaotian, was impressively listed.

The king strode towards this side, and this Yutian madness and the crown prince Wu Honglie and others also hurriedly walked over. The two parties finally met not far in front of the palace gate.

"The last general will see Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live long live!"

All the generals, including the soldiers behind them, all knelt on one knee and saluted extremely respectfully.

"Hurry up, the old prince and all the soldiers have worked hard,"

The king hurriedly supported Yutian madness with both hands, and said to him and the generals behind him very moved, hearing the king say this, the generals got up under the leadership of the prince and the old prince of Yutianmad.

When they had arisen the king, he said in a loud and earnest voice:

"On behalf of the people of the whole country, I would like to thank you and all the soldiers of the Northern Expedition for their efforts. It was you who used your blood and sacrifice to create the eternal prosperity of the Wu Kingdom, and now the Wu Kingdom is ready to be promoted to the Imperial Ceremony, and the Wu Kingdom will become the only empire in Beizhou. ”

"Long live Wu Guo, long live Your Majesty!"

Hearing the king's personal commendation, all the generals were very excited. Especially when I heard that the martial arts will be promoted to the empire and become an empire, this is a miracle of the world, so their reward will definitely be extremely rich.

The king's face was also excited, and he raised his hands and waved at the group, signaling them to stop, and then continued:

"The soldiers have left their homes to fight all the way, and your families must be extremely worried. You will return home to reunite with your families, and then you will be rewarded for your meritorious deeds at the ascension ceremony three days later, and all those who have made meritorious contributions will be rewarded. ”

"Yes!"

Nearly 100 generals saluted the king again, and then they went home with great excitement to reunite with their families.

There were only Yu Tianmad, Prince Wu Honglie, and a few major generals left in the square, and they knew that His Majesty would still have something to discuss, so they also flowed.

At this time, the king had time to look at his son, and he eagerly looked up and down at his son Wu Honglie in front of him.

It's dark, I'm thin, but fortunately I didn't get hurt!

Looking at his son, the king thought a little distressed, but looking at the resolute spirit exuded by his son, he had more pride in his heart.

Seeing that the king was looking at him lovingly, Wu Honglie also felt something, he took a few steps forward and knelt on his knees again, full of excitement and said:

"The son asked his father to say goodbye, and he has been away from home for a long time, which makes his father worried!"

"Okay, good, good, my son is suffering, get up quickly. ”

Full of excitement to help his son, the king was very relieved.

The son has matured a lot and grown a lot with the army this time, it seems that his original decision was right, and let his son go through the experience with the old prince, and the effect is extraordinary. It's just that he has to take care of his son while working the war, which is really hard for the old prince.

Especially seeing the vicissitudes of the old man's face and the bloodshot in his eyes, the king was even more unhappy. He said to Yu Tianmad very seriously:

"Old Prince, you have worked hard, this kid has caused you a lot of trouble in the army, right?"

Hearing this, the old prince was stunned for a moment, and then he understood, and he waved his hand very kindly and replied:

"Your Majesty, you are too worried, Hong Lie, this kid not only didn't let the old man worry about it in the army, but also made countless contributions, and his combat exploits in the merit book will definitely be ranked in the top three, more than many old generals!"

Yu Tianmad said with some emotion, and the commanders of the Northern Expeditionary Army behind him also echoed and said:

"Yes, the prince has made a great contribution this time!"

Hearing this, the king's face sank suddenly, he was not a foolish monarch, although his son had a good reputation, he also had some bottoming out in government affairs. But in the end, he is just a young man, and he has never trained in the army at all.

Such a young man's achievements are in the top three? I'm afraid it's not a good thing, isn't it, could it be that this kid is taking the credit of other people in it?

Thinking of this, the king's face immediately became gloomy, he thought that his son had grown up, but he didn't expect that it was not, he actually learned to deceive the superiors and subordinates, and this is worth it? Thinking of this, the king asked with some anger:

"Hmm, prince, how did you get those credits? Other generals have been fighting in the army for decades and have not earned any credit, why did you make so many merits when a young man who didn't know anything went on a trip?"

Hearing the king's question, the crown prince Wu Honglie was stunned for a moment, and when he saw the gloomy look on his father's face, he actually showed a depressed look.

I heard him say with some grief:

"Father, this son-in-law didn't expect this, and I didn't expect that meritorious service would become so simple, but the first time I accepted the task, the result was a big victory, and then it was a victory all the way, and I couldn't stop if I wanted to, what do you say the son-in-law can do?"

"Bastard, what are you talking nonsense?"

The king did not expect that his son, the crown prince, whom he had high hopes for, would say such a bastard thing, and he was so angry that he almost beat his own son.

Seeing that his father was angry and wanted to beat himself, the crown prince Wu Honglie felt even more aggrieved, and he said even more wrongedly:

"Father, don't worry, it's not that Erchen Jue is powerful, he can fight better than other generals, it's really too simple to fight this Northern Expedition, Erchen Jue can win even if he kills with soldiers, it's really ....... ”

"Shut up, you evil beast...... and you ...... Blatantly contempt for the Northern Expedition and the exploits of the soldiers of the Northern Expedition, ...... You are simply guilty. ”

The king's face was full of anger, and he pointed to his son and said tremblingly:

"Come on, drag this nobody, babbling bastard down on me......"

Seeing this scene, Yu Tianmad and several generals of the Northern Expeditionary Army were dumbfounded, no one expected this kind of thing to happen.

Fortunately, Yu Tianmad was the first to react, he spoke in time to stop the king, and said with a sigh:

"Your Majesty doesn't need to be angry, the prince is right, this Northern Expedition ...... Ay....... ”

"Hmm......" The king's face was full of surprise, and he stared at the Jade Sky Madman carefully, wanting to see if he was also crazy, what did the prince say right?
