Chapter 336: The Return of the Hero

The further you go in the direction of Great Xia, the colder it becomes. Gu Mo wore a dark mink cloak and a hood. He glanced back at the people behind him, all with smiles.

It's almost time to go back for the New Year.

I easily took the Nanyue Palace before, but I couldn't just return to the dynasty like this. Nanyue must be in the hands of her own people.

As a result, only a third of the soldiers returned this time. The only son in the family, those with elderly parents, those who have just been married, those who are still alive and about to get married, have all brought them back.

The others stayed in Nanyue for the time being. Wait for them to rest and go home after the new year. This victory is absolutely historic. Therefore, everyone is not only happy to go home, but also excited about their military exploits in the future.

In the palace of Great Xia, Emperor Zhao Qi has been smiling all over his face since he received the good news. Although he was proud of Gu Mo, he was even more proud of the expansion of his territory during his reign.

"Your Majesty, it's been a year off, and you have to pay attention to your dragon body." Father-in-law Yu is the emperor's confidant, and he already knows Gu Mo's identity, so he also understands the emperor's thoughts. "The old slave sees that the weather has been good in the last few days, and the army is almost coming back. You're the master of the land, aren't you celebrating it with the ordinary? ”

The emperor couldn't help but laugh out loud, "I want to thank Gu Mo." Then according to you, Gu Mo has made a great contribution this time, how should I express it? ”

Father-in-law Yu knew that the emperor had already made up his mind in his heart, but he still joked, "The minister who has opened up the territory since ancient times. They are all to be crowned princes. Although Marshal Gu is young, his loyalty and courage are not comparable to ordinary people. ”

The emperor nodded with satisfaction, "I feel that I am very close to Gu Mo. He saved my life again, and helped me increase my merits. ”

Father-in-law Yu's eyes rolled, "Then Your Majesty might as well recognize Master Gu as a righteous son." In this way, it can be regarded as a good story. ”

"That's right!" The Emperor nodded and said no more. Father-in-law Yu secretly calculated in his heart, this Gu Mo could be regarded as a step to the sky. Among the princes today, only the eldest prince has been crowned King of Qi. After this Gu Mo recognized his father-in-law, he was only half a level lower than the orthodox prince. And listening to the emperor's meaning, he will also be crowned king. That's really not bad.

"It's just that this Fuhui county lord ......" Yu Gonggong vaguely reminded him, the identity of this county lord is indeed a little worse.

"I've already figured this out. Liu Yunxiang also contributed a lot this time, and everyone wanted to be rewarded for their meritorious deeds. The Emperor groaned. You call the Shangshu of the Six Divisions and the Great Si Nong. Well, several princes also called. If you plan to give a reward on Chinese New Year's Eve and reduce taxes, please come and discuss it. ”

When Gu Mo and his party arrived twenty miles away from Kyoto, they met Liu Chengying, the squire of the military department. He was ordered to greet the procession. By the way, convey the meaning of the emperor.

The credit for this time is too great. The emperor appointed the military department Shangshu and His Royal Highness the King of Qi, that is, the eldest prince, to bring people to the city gate to greet them. Only 500 soldiers were left to enter the city, and the others went directly to the camp on the outskirts of Beijing to rest. The emperor gave each of them a reward of silver and food, and allowed them to go home to join their families, and a month later they returned to the camp.

The other generals entered the city with five hundred elite soldiers, walked through the main gate, and arrived directly at the imperial city. Accept the praise of the people on the way.

This is a real honor, so these 500 people are the bravest on the battlefield. People who have made a meritorious contribution. The memora of the merit has been handed over, and the emperor has made it clear. A reward should be awarded at the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet.

Zhou knew that his son was going to enter the palace with Gu Mo, so he didn't want to wait at home, so he booked a private room in the teahouse early, and like countless girls waiting to see the hero's return, he looked forward to seeing the hero's heroic appearance at a glance.

"I see my brother-in-law! I saw my brother! Yun Xuan was lying at the window, Gu Mo was at the front, followed by Zhou Zhi and Liu Yunsheng, both dressed in silver light armor and cloaked behind them.

Yun Xiang also looked over, Zhao Hui and a few generals who went with him this time did not come back, they should be guarding Nanyue.

The screams of women and the cries of the people rang out all around. Then I saw flowers, silk handkerchiefs and sachets flying.

Gu Mo and the others calmly avoided without a trace of expression. makes the already handsome face even more crazy.

As if he had an electrocardiogram, Gu Mo suddenly looked up at the upper right, and was not surprised to see the person he was thinking about. The corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and his eyes conveyed longing. But he couldn't stop for a moment, turned his gaze back, and left with the men and horses.

"Yunsheng is dark, but it is a little stronger." Zhou looked at the group of people who were sought after by tens of thousands of people, and he couldn't say how proud he was. The three people who walked in front of him were his son-in-law, his son, and his nephew. There is also a son-in-law who has also made great contributions, although he is not in this team, but he is just as good.

"Huh? Why is there a carriage behind this? Yun Lian frowned and looked at the carriage that the elite soldiers were guarding at the end, a little puzzled.

Yun Xiang looked over and frowned. At this time, I am afraid that I will bring it into the palace. In this car should be Nanyue's captive. However, under normal circumstances, captives are not treated so well, so they should be royal families, and probably female dependents.

The mysterious death of the Nanyue King caused chaos in the palace. The harem of the King of Nanyue ran away, and those who couldn't run killed themselves. But Gu Mo once revealed that there were still a few two princesses left in the Nanyue royal family. One is the Red Moon Princess who is good at raising Gu snakes, and the other is the priestess of Nanyue, known as the Blue Moon Princess of the Moon Beauty.

Yun Xiang retracted her gaze and heard that Yun Xuan, who had run out to play, was being accosted.

"Little one, I just heard you shouting there, which one is your brother-in-law? Which is your brother? ”

Yun Xuan looked at the gorgeously dressed young lady in front of him, and his eyes rolled with a purr, "Sister, women should be reserved, and they can't ask about men's affairs indiscriminately. ”

The woman laughed out loud and patted Yun Xiang's head casually, "Eccentric! This street is full of heroes, and there are many people asking! Why can't I? ”

Yun Xuan said very seriously, "If you really want to know, I'll tell you." My brother-in-law is Marshal Gu, and the people who are followed by him are my cousin and my brother-in-law. But they all have lords, and our family has family rules, and we can't take concubines. ”

The woman's face suddenly turned red, and she stomped her feet in shame and anger, "Who said she was going to be a concubine!" You little scoundrel! Ignore you! With that, he turned around and ran downstairs. (To be continued.) )
