Chapter 1372: Zixia and Bi Ma Wen
In addition to the invisible and intangible benefits of fame, the Ming army also obtained real benefits from the Battle of Hetao, such as: 20,000 sets of cavalry equipment, war horses, grain and grass, cattle and sheep, etc.
The Ming army only dispatched 10,000 cavalry, and the troops lost after the war were also replenished, but they received more than ten times the benefits they paid, and the Ming army naturally made a lot of money.
For such a generous Qin Hao, the ministers of the Ming Dynasty are naturally a lot more pleasing to the eye, no longer as hostile as before, and the relationship between Qin and Ming has gradually broken the ice, and gradually moved towards a friendly level.
As for Long Ji, he is not only the general of the Ming Dynasty, but also the commander of the cavalry of the Ming Dynasty this time, he not only participated in the Battle of Hetao, but also went out of the fortress with the Qin army alone, and became one of the three hundred warriors who came back alive.
Everyone who came back alive from the fortress was a hero, not to mention a high-ranking general like Long He.
Long Ji not only became a national hero, but also participated in the signing of the treaty on behalf of the Ming Dynasty, and now he is the pride of the entire Ming Kingdom.
This time, the dragon army returned to Jizhou from Bingzhou, whether it was in love or reason, Emperor Ming also held a very big welcome ceremony to welcome his return with the highest classification.
Emperor Ming took the information from Sun Lingming, and said with a smile on his face after reading it: "There are still ten days before the return of General Long and General, Dian Wei, you immediately go and tell the prime minister and ask him to organize a large-scale welcome ceremony for General Long and General." ”
"No."
Dian Wei responded with a fist, then turned to leave, and glared at Sun Lingming before leaving, but Sun Lingming glared back without showing weakness.
Dian Wei and Sun Lingming are both the guards and generals around Emperor Ming, and for Sun Lingming's partner, Dian Wei is actually very dissatisfied in his heart, just because Sun Lingming is clumsy and doesn't understand the rules, and he can always make His Majesty Emperor Ming angry.
In Dian Wei's opinion, His Majesty Emperor Ming has a lot of opportunities every day, and he has a lot of things to deal with every day, and as a result, he has to be distracted to worry about Sun Lingming.
When Dian Wei and Xu Ding partnered, he never let the great sage and good teacher worry about it, so Dian Wei felt that Sun Lingming was too ignorant, and he missed his old partner Xu Ding, who had died in battle.
Dian Wei is a tough guy with a straight personality, he doesn't know so many twists and turns, he always says whatever he thinks in his heart, he clearly expressed his dissatisfaction to Emperor Ming, and bluntly said that Sun Lingming is not suitable to serve as the right commander of the guard, but unfortunately Emperor Ming did not adopt his opinion.
Although Emperor Ming reprimanded Sun Lingming every day, he was really angry and even made a move, but this is more about valuing and appreciating Sun Lingming's performance, after all, there are so many people in the entire Ming Dynasty, and Emperor Ming is the busiest one, why does she have to find herself unhappy, so she arrests Sun Lingming and trains him alone?
To be honest, Emperor Ming himself didn't know why he admired Sun Lingming alone, maybe he didn't want to see Sun Lingming waste his talent, or maybe it was Sun Lingming's miserable childhood that triggered his hidden mother.
In short, Emperor Ming really attaches great importance to Sun Lingming, and has a great attitude of cultivating him as a righteous son.
After Dian Wei left, Sun Lingming handed over another piece of letterhead, and Emperor Ming took it and asked, "What is this?" ”
"This is the specific clause announced by the "Qin-Yuan-Jinyang Treaty", Your Majesty, this Qin Duke Qin Hao is really powerful, my old grandson...... Well, although the last general didn't read much, he also knew that none of the alien races in the north were easy to deal with.
The alien races in northern Xinjiang are extremely difficult and brutal, among which Yuanmeng's strength is the strongest, but Qin Hao almost destroyed Yuanmeng in a war, and even signed such a humiliating traitorous treaty. ”
Sun Lingming said a lot excitedly, but Emperor Ming didn't listen to a word, and her eyes were all focused on the third day of the treaty.
Thinking that Qin Hao was going to marry someone else again, and that she was a woman of a different race, but she had been exiled so far, Emperor Ming's heart was very uncomfortable, and his face became worse and worse.
Sun Lingming didn't notice the change in Emperor Ming's mentality, and he still kept talking to himself, and the more he talked, the more energetic he became.
"To tell the truth, except for Your Majesty, the last general in this world has never really admired anyone else, even Xiang Yu, who is recognized as the number one in the world, but this Qin Hao, even the last general, admires it, Qin Hao really did it too beautifully......"
Emperor Ming's personal female official was named Zixia, and stood out among tens of thousands of girls, Emperor Ming gave her the name Zixia, and made her his personal female official.
Zixia is a smart but empathetic woman, and she notices that there is something wrong with Emperor Ming's face, thinking that Emperor Ming is dissatisfied with the contents of the treaty.
Seeing that Sun Lingming was praising Qin Hao vigorously, Zixia was afraid that he would provoke His Majesty's anger again, so she gently tugged at Sun Lingming's clothes and reminded in a low voice: "General Sun, don't say it." ”
"Huh? Why? ”
Sun Lingming didn't know why, but Emperor Ming raised his head with a gloomy face, and the frosty expression made Sun Lingming jump, Your Majesty is going to be angry!
"Let him speak." Emperor Ming shouted.
Sun Lingming suddenly shuddered, and stammered: "I, no, don't dare, no more, don't dare?" ”
"Don't you dare, what?"
"Huh? I don't know. ”
Sun Lingming told the truth, he really didn't know what happened to him, so he made His Majesty angry again?
Emperor Ming's eyes fell into the sword, glared at him fiercely, and said coldly: "General Sun Lingming, you rewarded your colleagues last time, I haven't punished you yet, and there are still ...... This time, I will punish you for several crimes, and I will punish you......"
Sun Lingming is a person with copper skin and iron bones, and beating the military stick is helping him to cultivate external skills, and it has no effect of punishment at all, and the effect of other punishments is not good.
Emperor Ming pondered for a moment and said, "Punish you to go to the stable to raise a horse for a month." ”
As soon as he heard this, Sun Lingming's eyes suddenly widened: "Raising horses again?" ”
Sun Lingming's biggest fear is raising horses, and the war horses in his serious consequence stables are all very expensive, and they can't run if they eat too much fat, and they can't run if they eat less.
In addition, cleaning up horse manure, bathing horses and a lot of other trivial chores made Sun Lingming extremely bored, he would rather have fifty military sticks every day for a month than raise horses for a month.
Sun Lingming obviously did not do this kind of thing for the first time, but thought that he was often punished by Emperor Ming to raise horses, so the soldiers in the army laughed at him as 'Bi Ma Wen'.
As soon as he thought that he was going to stay in the stable for two months, Sun Lingming felt that he was about to go crazy, so he begged for mercy with a bitter face: "Your Majesty, I really know that I am wrong, can you punish me in another way?" As long as you don't go to raise horses, I don't have an opinion on how you punish me. ”
