Chapter 649: Lord Jiang
The carriage was speeding in the direction of Jiangfu, Jiang Yuetang lifted the curtains and looked out, and found that the originally bustling Beijing Street now seemed deserted, and the doors of the houses along the road were closed, and there were few pedestrians on the road.
Although the war did not affect the capital, it was obvious that the people in the capital were too scared to go out.
Jiang Yuetang sighed heavily.
If the world is not peaceful and the country is unstable, it is the people who are most frightened and suffered, and she is really ashamed as a strategist and an important minister beside the emperor, and she cannot help but secretly resolve to do her best to make the country stable.
When the carriage arrived at Dejiang Mansion, it was completely dark.
Old Madam Tao hurriedly walked to the door with Zhen Huiyuan's support, her eyes full of anxiety.
Jiang Yuetang had just gotten out of the carriage, and they came to her, and before she could speak, they were already crying and hugging her.
They hugged her hard, as if they were afraid that she would suddenly disappear.
Jiang Yuetang hugged them hard, and her eyes were moist.
The three of them helped each other into the house and went straight to the living room.
Under the light of the living room, Jiang Yuetang saw Mrs. Tao and Zhen Huiyuan clearly.
She was surprised to find that the two of them had aged much at once, and tears suddenly dripped down like pearls of broken threads.
It's not hard to imagine how frightened they were during the months she spent fighting.
And they also found that Jiang Yuetang seemed to have matured a lot after this war, and although he was dark and thin, he was in good spirits.
They were relieved, but the worries that had been accumulated for months could not be held back at this time, and suddenly turned into raging tears.
Jiang Yuetang walked over, stretched out her hand to hug them, and said, "Grandmother, mother, I'm back, I will accompany you as much as possible in the future." ”
The two nodded, hugged her and cried again. Jiang Yuetang had just stopped crying, and now he was made to cry again.
After crying, all three of them broke into tears and laughed, and went to dinner hand in hand.
This night, Jiang Yuetang slept very soundly, so she had no dreams all night, and got up early in the morning to enter the palace.
Because of her outstanding performance in this battle, the men of the Strategists welcomed her back and carefully made an oversized apple cake for her.
The apple, which symbolizes peace and sweetness, was gratefully accepted and cut into dozens of pieces for everyone in the Counsellors to eat.
"Master Jiang, now you are not only a prodigy and a genius in the minds of the people of the capital, but also a god of war. One of the advisors said with a smile.
Another advisor also immediately chimed in: "Yes, Lord Jiang, Your Majesty has often praised you in front of the ministers in the court recently. ”
In the past, they all called her Jiang Xiaogongzi or Jiang Moushi, but now they call her Jiang Daren, she smiled, went back to her seat and sat down, and then wrote an excerpt.
Although they sacrificed a lot of soldiers in this battle, the number of remaining soldiers added up was still more than that of Zhao, not to mention that the combined population of the two countries was also large, and it was not ruled out that a group of large-scale troops would soon be organized.
Under such circumstances, Zhao Guo had to come up with a way to protect the country as soon as possible.
So she is writing such an excerpt to the emperor now.
She is a strategist and does not have the qualifications to go to the early dynasty, so handing over the fold is the best way for her to express her opinion.
When the strategists saw that she was writing an excerpt, they asked what it was about, and Jiang Yuetang said frankly: "It's about how to deal with the re-attack of Ye and Yun. Do you have any opinions?"
The advisors immediately gathered around her and began to discuss how to deal with it.
Strategist A said: "Just after the war, nearly 20,000 people died on our side, and the wheat on the border was also trampled, and now the most important thing is to resume production and let the soldiers recuperate, so it is not recommended to fight again this year." ”
Strategist B also nodded violently and said, "Yes, it's almost November now, the weather is getting colder and colder, and it will snow heavily in a few days, which is really not conducive to marching and fighting." ”
Jiang Yuetang said: "When the enemy army is coming, we can't help but fight, but judging from the current situation, they also need to recuperate and adjust, so they shouldn't come again within the year, but if you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what happens, it is always good to be prepared." ”
So the crowd began to think about it seriously.
At this moment, someone suddenly came in and said, "Master Jiang, Your Majesty is invited, you can go to the Yinghua Hall now." ”
Jiang Yuetang hurriedly put the fold into his pocket and got up.
Yinghua Hall immediately gathered a group of important ministers of the imperial court, including Xiao Diyuan.
Seeing that Xiao Diyuan was also there, the corners of Jiang Yuetang's mouth raised slightly.
Xiao Diyuan also looked over, his eyes as gentle as ever.
Jiang Yuetang hurriedly withdrew her gaze, saluted everyone, and then sat down in the designated position.
The emperor first affirmed the wisdom of Xiao Diyuan and Jiang Yuetang in this battle, praised their resourcefulness and composure, and said that without their ideas, Zhao would definitely be the losing side in this battle.
After finishing speaking, the emperor rewarded Xiao Diyuan and Jiang Yuetang in front of all the ministers, and then asked everyone what to do with the difficulties that the country might face next.
Xiao Diyuan said: "It is about to snow heavily, and the western and northern borders of Zhaoguo are the places where the snow falls heaviest, and Ye and Yunguo are located in the west and north respectively, so as long as we strengthen the defense of the border, we should be able to spend the year safely." A year later, we ostensibly stood still, but secretly trained a group of elite soldiers for combat in preparation for war. ”
Everyone nodded their heads one after another.
The emperor also nodded, then looked at Jiang Yuetang and asked, "Jiang Aiqing has anything to add?"
Jiang Yuetang hurriedly said: "Not for the time being." ”
The Emperor then adjourned the meeting.
Xiao Diyuan invited Jiang Yuetang to Qingyun Palace for tea, and Jiang Yuetang saw that it was still early, so he agreed.
The two of them walked along the long flower-lined path in the palace to Qingyun Palace, and as they walked, they felt something on their faces, and when they looked up, thin snowflakes were falling.
"It's snowing. Jiang Yuetang was surprised.
The sun has just come out of the sky.
Xiao Diyuan also looked up at those snowflakes and said, "When the snow falls heavily in a few days, how about I take you to Qianfeng Mountain to enjoy the snow?"
Jiang Yuetang asked with a smile: "You have only returned to Zhaoguo not long ago, how do you know about Qianfeng Mountain?"
Xiao Diyuan: "As soon as I came back, I asked Ding Cong to give me a map of the capital of Zhaoguo." ”
Jiang Yuetang: "Okay, I haven't been there either, so I can just go and see it this time." ”
Xiao Diyuan: "The mountains are high and windy, so you have to wear more at that time." ”
Jiang Yuetang: "Hmm. ”
