Although he didn't ask Cong Ye personally, he could guess a thing or two from his account of the attack on the ghost, and it seemed that this plague god couldn't completely control the strange transparent flame. Otherwise, it would not have burned the corpses of more than 2,000 soldiers who escorted the grain and grass, including those who were seriously wounded and not dead, to a pile of bones.
If an accident happens, not only the main forces of the Flying Eagle Army and the Flying Bear Army will also suffer, even he, the Prime Minister of the Left, may not be able to survive at that time.
Lin Tong, who had not slept all night, and the two commanders, were always paying attention to each other's withdrawal until dawn, and the camp on the opposite side, which could not be seen at a glance, was already empty, and there was no certain tent in sight.
As the news of the withdrawal of Kim Sun-kook's million-strong army spread, the dawn of Guangling City suddenly erupted in the sound of earth-shattering firecrackers and excited shouts.
War, whether won or lost, will have countless people lose their lives, and being able to make the other side withdraw its troops without blood is undoubtedly the result that everyone wants to see.
Lin Tong, the prime minister of Zuo, finally put his mind at ease, and finally fulfilled his mission and completed the task assigned by the emperor. Not only did they not lose a single soldier of the Flying Eagle Army and the Flying Bear Army, but they also accidentally won over the plague god Cong Ye, needless to say, this time the credit was enough to consolidate the Lin family's position in Gaochun Country again.
On the one hand, the flying pigeon passed the book, reported the news of the victory to the emperor Sang Cheng, and on the other hand, on the second day of Jin Shanguo's retreat, Lin Tong, Princess Caiyun, and Cong Ye embarked on the triumphant journey back to Beijing.
There are thousands of miles away from Guangling City to Phoenix City, the capital city, and Lin Tong, the prime minister of Zuo, who is like an arrow, has to take care of Princess Caiyun, even if he is anxious in his heart, he can't rush overnight, so he can only stay overnight with patience. The daily itinerary is always within 145 miles.
A month later, less than an hour after the departure from the Fire Dragon City Post House, he was met by two fast horses galloping towards him, and when he ran to the front of the triumphal procession, he suddenly stopped, and the men on the horse threw their stirrups off the saddle, and one of them raised the holy decree with one hand, and shouted in his mouth:
"Zuo Prime Minister Lin Tong received the order"
Lin Tong led the guards to kneel on the ground in a hurry, only to hear the person read out:
"Fengtian carrier, the emperor edict said: You and others are united to force back the millions of heroes of Jin Shanguo and save the people from fire and water, which can be described as a merit in the community. Specially gave three cups of imperial wine to Lin Tong, the prime minister of the left. Mr. Gift Cong Ye Python robe jade belt, three cups of wine. Chin this. โ
Obviously, this decree is for the foliage.
After Lin Tong thanked him, he stood up and motioned for Cong Ye to step forward and take the python robe and jade belt, and a guard had already stepped forward to help Cong Ye get dressed neatly. After that, one of them took the wine glass, drank three glasses of imperial wine in a row, and then set off on the road again.
Another month later, he received the emperor's decree again.
In addition to the reward of Lin Tong and Cong Ye each with three cups of imperial wine, Cong Ye was also given a pair of golden soft armor.
When there was only a hundred miles left from the capital Phoenix City, he received the emperor's decree for the third time.
"Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict said: Mr. Cong Ye is a promising young man, specially named the king of Xiaoyao, exempted from worship in front of the emperor, and ranked among the three dukes. Another palace was given, with 100 maids and 500 guards. Chin this. โ
Cong Ye didn't know what happened to the emperor of Gao Chunguo, and the three holy decrees in succession seemed to be directed at him.
After staying at the post house in the evening, Cong Ye couldn't help but say to Lin Tong, the prime minister of the left:
"Prime Minister, Cong Ye deserves it."
"Hehe, how can the King of Xiaoyao be ashamed of only if it were not for the prestige of the King of Xiaoyao, how could Jin Shanguo be willing to take the army lightly. King Xiaoyao can no longer call Lin Tong like this, now the prince is also ranked as the third duke, completely equal to Lin Tong, if you don't dislike it, it is enough to call Lin Tong a brother according to age. โ
Even Princess Caiyun, who has always been unsmiling in front of her, took the initiative to congratulate Cong Ye:
"Congratulations to King Xiaoyao, Gao Chunguo has not been crowned with a foreign surname for hundreds of years."
Although there was some surprise in his heart, after all, the young heart of Cong Ye still prefers the title of King Xiaoyao.
"Your Royal Highness, Why?"
"Hehe, my brother doesn't know. At the beginning of the founding of the Gaochun State, Emperor Gaozu had an order that unless he made great contributions to the country, he would never be crowned with a foreign surname again, which was the ancestral training. โ
The next day, the team set out early and planned to enter the city by noon. Unexpectedly, as soon as he traveled thirty miles, officials had already come to greet him. And told the left prime minister Lin Tong:
"The Holy Lord has ordered His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to set up a banquet in the Ten Mile Long Pavilion, waiting for the Prime Minister and King Xiaoyao and his party."
As soon as he heard this, Cong Ye didn't feel anything, but Lin Tong, the prime minister of Zuo, was a little surprised.
From this, it is not difficult to judge the good intentions of Emperor Sang Cheng to entrap the plague god Cong Ye.
Hurry up and whip to the ten-mile long pavilion, and sure enough, the twenty-year-old prince Sang Tong is already standing on the official road outside the long pavilion.
Princess Caiyun's carriage stopped first, and after the brothers and sisters saw each other first, it was Lin Tong, the prime minister of Zuo, who knelt on the ground and paid homage to the prince Sang Tong as a courtesy.
Then there is a carefree king Congye in a python robe and jade belt. I don't like to kneel down to people, but when I saw His Royal Highness the Crown Prince bending down to give him a salute, I had no choice but to do the same and give the prince a salute.
"King of Escape, please."
After the two of them gave a salute, the prince Sang Tong turned to one side and motioned for Cong Ye to go first.
Even if he didn't understand the rules, Cong Ye knew that the prince should go first, so he hurriedly flashed, followed the prince's appearance, stretched out his hand and said:
"His Royal Highness the Prince, please."
Mutual humility, when Cong Ye was a little impatient, Prince Sang Cheng grabbed Cong Ye's hand, and the two walked into the pavilion together, and pulled Cong Ye and himself to sit on the top seat. In turn, Princess Caiyun, and finally Lin Tong. Although there are still many ministers of the DPRK and China, there are no more who are qualified to sit in the seats.
Without letting the father-in-law who was waiting on the side pour wine, Princess Caiyun lost no time in taking the wine jug in the eunuch's hand and filled the wine glasses in front of her for the prince, Cong Ye, and Lin Tong with her own hands.
Prince Sang Tong picked up his wine glass and said to Cong Ye:
"Entrusted by my father, on behalf of hundreds of millions of people in Gao Chunguo, I am here to welcome the two heroes of King Xiaoyao and Prime Minister Zuo, please drink this cup."
After saying that, he raised his head and drank.
In Cong Ye's short memory, he has never had the experience of drinking, and this time he first had three glasses of imperial wine three times in a row on the road, and this is the fourth time. Anyway, I didn't feel anything after drinking it three times before, so I drank it, and I picked up the wine glass and tilted my head to dry.
The so-called banquet to welcome the dust washing is just a meaning, and the three of them drank three cups in a row, and no one touched the food on the table, and the ceremony was over.
"Father's will, Prime Minister Zuo will enter the palace quickly, and King Xiaoyao will go back to the mansion to bathe and rest first, and after the fatigue of the journey is eliminated, the emperor will specially summon him."
Subsequently, surrounded by the five hundred guards brought by the crown prince Sang Tong in advance and allocated to the King of Xiaoyao, Cong Ye entered Phoenix City, the capital of Gaochun Kingdom, for the first time, and came to a wide and secluded street outside the imperial city. When the team stopped in front of a mansion with two mighty stone unicorns in front of the door, they looked up and saw that the plaque with black letters on a red background on the lintel had four big words written on it: Xiaoyao Wangfu. There is also a line of small characters standing next to it: Tianfeng twenty-three years royal pen.
