The imperial court naturally cares about the battle of the ghost guard army's victory over Wuhuan, and this battle is too beautiful, as if it is like a legendary romance. Zhang Xiaowu's previous story and the recent scenery are enough to write a legend, but it is precisely because the limelight is so strong that the court does not know how to reward it.

A commoner's son, in the name of a ghost general, commanded the remnants of the Qinglong army in Saibei, defeated the dog-yi army from all walks of life one after another, and helped Emperor Dade to expand his territory, who can say what reward he will give?

Emperor Dade was also embarrassed, according to the custom, Zhang Xiaowu should be rewarded with the Marquis of Sanpin, because Zhang Xiaowu is a native of Yunxian County, Hejian Prefecture, Yongzhou, Emperor Dade needs to reward him as the Marquis of Sanpin Hejian. Rewarding a marquis is not deliberately suppressed, but to facilitate the emperor to continue to reward in the future, for example, Dushan Bo turned the tide and saved the court, and was promoted from the second rank to the first rank of the uncle, and after the emperor married the granddaughter of Dushan in September next year, the emperor will promote Ye Xiangdong to the third rank of the king of Dushan County.

Zhang Xiaowu is young and has no family support, four generations and three generations have served the country, and being able to get the Sanpin Hejian Marquis by himself is already breaking the convention of the Holy Han. Therefore, the jealous person is naturally unwilling, Zhang Kuan, the prime minister of the left, has served in the court for forty-five years, and now he is just a second-grade master, why can the twenty-year-old Zhang Xiaowu be a marquis?

So everyone tacitly suspended the reward, saying that it was waiting for the northern part of the country to be completely calmed down, especially the Wuhuan army, although it returned without serious damage, after the spring flowers bloom next year, Wuhuan is very likely to go south again. The emperor only ordered the ghost guard to be rewarded with 100,000 taels of silver, and did not give too much reward for the time being.

Because of the defeat of Wuhuan, the agreement between the Shenghan Empire and the Wuhuan Empire was temporarily nullified, and Su Yu, who escorted Princess Luling and her party to the north, finally returned to Longdu.

In May, the imperial court decided to marry Princess Luling to Wuhuan Xiaowang Wu Li, but Su Yu happened to encounter a flood when escorting her, so the convoy was stopped by the flood for a month. When the flood receded, Princess Luling fell ill in Yongzhou because she missed her mother too much, and Su Yu was afraid that Princess Luling would die of illness, so she hurriedly invited famous doctors from all over the world.

By the time Princess Luling's condition improved, it was already October, and Su Yu also learned the news of the defeat of Uzi and Tartar, and said in his heart, okay, this is a powerful general. When the convoy arrived in Hunzhou, he heard that Wuhuan was also defeated, Su Yu was dumbfounded, Wuhuan was defeated, is this a discord?

And pro, right?

marrying the princess to a defeated Inuyi is too embarrassing for the court.

Don't get along, right?

has already promised Fanbang, how can he break his promise?

After Su Yu hesitated, he suddenly got a secret letter from the four princes, and the four princes said in the letter that Wuhuan broke his promise, captured Jincheng, and slaughtered Jincheng's soldiers, and the envoy Su could wait for the holy oracle. So Su Yu waited for a few more days, and sure enough, he received a report that because Wuhuan tore up the agreement, Shenghan decided to stop the princess from marrying outside, and ordered Su Yu to escort Princess Luling back to Longdu. Princess Luling cried with joy, and Su Yu also breathed a sigh of relief, finally no longer having to bear the infamy.

From Longdu to Hunzhou, Su Yu and the others walked for five months, and from Hunzhou to Longdu City, it only took five days for their group. After returning to Longdu, Emperor Dade rewarded Su Yu with an idle official position, serving as the manager of the Domain, and in the Domain, except for Si Cheng, he was him. But Su Yu, an outsider, was set up as soon as he arrived at the Fan Li Yuan, and Si Cheng said that you can do whatever you want, and the implication is that you had better not do anything, just be a mascot.

Su Yu knew that he was a tool of Dushanbo, and Dushanbo would never care about his future, so he didn't ask Dushanbo, after all, a four-grade manager of the Domain Academy was already the end of officialdom for him.

So Su Yu didn't interfere in any affairs of the Imperial Court, and he didn't even need to go to the court, he received the monthly salary every month, drank a little wine and bragged to others about how powerful he was. He was disgruntled and full of indignation. He saw that everyone was not pleasing to the eye, and every minister was a thief of chickens and dogs, so he bought drunk flowers all day long.

Everyone knows that Su Yu used to be the Yin of Longdu Mansion, and now he is the manager of the Fan Yuan, although he is respectful but disrespectful, after all, everyone knows that this is a person who has lost his backer in the court dispute.

The most troublesome thing to find Su Yu is the Seventh Prince Xuanyuan Zidong, but now the Seventh Prince is smart, and he doesn't take action himself, but sends some people to secretly make trouble for Su Yu, not killing him, not beating him, not scolding him, and disgusting him. For example, Su Yu went to the Qinglou to buy wine, but when he checked out, he suddenly found that the money bag was lost, and after Su Yu went home, someone sent a bunch of dead cats and dead dogs to say that it was a congratulatory gift and so on.

The attitude of the Su family suddenly changed greatly, because Su Yu provoked the royal family, and even his eldest brother asked him to leave the house independently, which made Su Yu angry and made a fuss about the Su family. Fortunately, the old man Su was in charge and suppressed the matter of separating the family, and the old man also understood that although the Su family is suffering now and encountering the villain's revenge, the rise of the Su family still depends on Su Yu.

Suddenly, one day I heard that someone had impeached Zhang Xiaowu, so I asked the reason and inquired about it. It turned out that Zhang Xiaowu was too popular, defeated Inuyi many times, and now defeated Wuhuan, and the people in the military department thought that a civilian had reached the sky as a third-grade general, and there was no reward, so they were ready to trouble him. So a small official in the military department impeached Zhang Xiaowu for disrespecting orders and embezzling the salaries of sergeants in the 6th Regiment Dead Soldiers Battalion, and there was a testimony of Huang Sheng, the captain of the Dead Soldiers Battalion.

Su Yu was very angry, what is this Huang Sheng, how can he slander the innocence of others so much, the military salary of the dead soldier battalion has always been in Huang Sheng's hands, and when will Zhang Xiaowu be able to access the military salary and silver money as a school assistant, it is really ridiculous. However, he inquired again, and the military department was really ready to use this as an excuse to remove Zhang Xiaowu from the post of general of Saibei. What's even more strange is that when Huang Sheng went to the military department to testify, he suddenly died violently, so his testimony became an unsolved case.

But the impeachment of Zhang Xiaowu was still sent to the emperor.

Su Yu is now just an idle official, and he can't do anything about others slandering his friends, but he has nowhere to vent, so his anger turns into motivation. He decided to write behind closed doors, and it took him three days to write a book of "The Ghost Will Walk". Su Yu knew that this book would definitely cause a reaction from the imperial court and even the world, so he sent his henchmen to print a hundred copies in other places, and then distributed them all over Longdu. So far, all squares in Longdu have received "Ghost Generals", and the story is so wonderful that it has become the most popular reading book in the entire Longdu.

Although Su Yu printed 100 copies of "The Ghost General", he printed tens of thousands of copies by himself, and the storytellers in Longdu City told this story one after another, which often attracted countless readers. Zhang Xiaowu has not yet arrived in Longdu, and Longdu is already full of his stories, and even he himself does not know how popular he is among the common people.
