The tigers and leopards are all cavalry, and they advance quickly, and the withdrawal is naturally fast.

"Brother Xian, Brother Fool suddenly remembered one thing, this time in the army, you have so much credit, it seems that you have not received any reward."

When the team approached Xudu, Cao Ang, who was running immediately, suddenly turned around and shouted to Liu Ping.

conquered Runan, the Son of Heaven named Cao Ang as the general of Zhengnan, Yiting Hou, but Liu Ping did not get the reward, he was still the general of Pingxi, the Marquis of Pingling Pavilion, which made Cao Ang feel indignant.

After all, Liu Ping contributed the most to the southern expedition, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he won the first credit, but the credit was all credited to him Cao Ang, but Liu Ping didn't even catch a single hair.

"Big brother, you get a reward from the court, and the younger brother will be satisfied,"

Liu Ping said with a smile: "The younger brother is already Guanglu Siqing, the great Si Nong, how can the imperial court reward him?" ”

"That's not right," Cao Ang said stubbornly: "You are the secretary of Guanglu Temple in the imperial court, the great Si Nong, you are contributing a lot to the imperial court, and you deserve to get such an official position."

But what is the reason for not rewarding meritorious service in this battle?

Could it be that we have made such a great contribution, and the court still doesn't pay attention to it? ”

In normal times, the imperial court will never reward only one commander for his great achievements, and all major generals who have made great achievements in war should be rewarded to a greater or lesser extent.

Although Liu Ping is now in a high position in the court, this battle has played a decisive role, even if the court symbolically rewards some money, or even raises the title, it can be said that it is in the past.

But not a single copper plate is not rewarded, it's too much.

This inevitably made Cao Ang wonder if the emperor didn't pay much attention to their merits, and thought that it would be okay to just reward him as a commander.

"Big brother, you are too worried, let's quell the rebellion and recapture the jade seal, it is an immortal achievement for the Han family, how can the Son of Heaven not value it?"

"No matter what, Brother Fool found that if the Son of Heaven doesn't value the merits we have made this time, Brother Fool would rather not have this position of reward from the court."

After speaking, Cao Ang's mouth tightened, and his face showed a look of determination.

The horsewhip in his hand slapped the horse's buttocks hard, and the Dawan horse roared, white water vapor erupted from its nostrils, and it opened its hooves and galloped faster.

Soon, the tall walls of Xudu came into their eyes.

At this time, it was close to Chinese New Year's Eve, the weather was very cold, and the sky and earth were depressed.

At this time, even the hard-working farmers hide in a place where they can keep out the cold to avoid the winter.

Therefore, no one can see in the field or on the road.

However, they saw many people standing at the gate of Xudu City from a distance, and it seemed that there were hundreds.

Cao Ang couldn't help but feel puzzled, it was freezing on this day, who was stupidly standing in the cold wind outside the city, didn't he know the cold?

"Brother Xian, hurry up, hurry up to your house, Brother Fool wants to ask for a bowl of wine to warm up."

"Where you are warm, you are clearly gluttonous."

"You don't have the ability to predict the future, you can guess it?"

"Guess the eldest brother's thoughts, and use the unpredictable prophet?"

The two laughed and led the army forward.

Both of them rode the same Dawan horse, and they galloped fast and steady, even if the tiger and leopard rider rode a good grassland horse, they could not catch up.

But for Liu Ping, it's too cold, even if he takes an Alto in the future, it's better than sitting on this big horse, there is no windshield.

As I got closer to the city gate, I could see the outfits of the group of people.

"Big brother, it seems to be the Son of Heaven and the Minister of the DPRK."

"It seems so,"

Cao Ang also saw that the one in the front wearing a gown and a crown was not the Son of Heaven.

The group of Eguanbo in the back is naturally the ministers of the DPRK and China.

The jade seal of the country has been lost from the emperor's hands for several years, and now it has returned, which is a great honor for the Han court represented by Liu Xie.

This is something that can leave a name in history, and Liu Xie naturally wants to do it very grandly.

It is nothing to personally lead the civil and military ministers out of the city to greet them.

It's just that in this way, it also welcomed the Southern Expeditionary Army, which is also a great affirmation of the merits of the Southern Expeditionary Army.

Cao Ang was very happy in his heart, he thought that the imperial court did not attach much importance to this achievement, but he didn't expect that the Son of Heaven had already led all the ministers out of the city to greet them, this is too much attention.

Walking to a place dozens of steps away from the Son of Heaven, Cao Ang dismounted.

Cao Ang walked quickly to Liu Xie with a brocade box containing a jade seal, and behind him were Liu Ping, Xiahou Yuan, and Cao Chun, the three tiger and leopard riders.

At this time, Cao Ang bowed down with a solemn expression and said: "Your Majesty Hongfu, the ministers are fortunate to live up to their mission and recapture the jade seal, please take it back." ”

"Zhuqing, flat!"

Although Liu Xie tried his best to suppress his emotions, everyone could hear it, and the usually calm son of heaven could no longer be calm in his words.

Liu Xie stretched out his hand to take the brocade box, trembling and slowly opening it, and the round and flawless heirloom jade seal appeared in front of him.

The jade seal was obtained by Gaozu from the hands of Prince Ying of Qin, and has been passed down in the hands of the emperors of the Liu family for hundreds of years.

A few years ago, it was unfortunately lost in the hands of his imperial brother, and now it is back in his hands, is this a sign of the prosperity of the Han family?

At least this is the greatest achievement he has made for the Han family since he became emperor, which is enough to comfort the previous emperors.

"Your Majesty Shengming!" Kong Rong took the lead and shouted loudly, "Your Majesty should go to the Taimiao Temple to worship and inform the emperor of this matter." ”

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

……

All the ministers shouted in unison, and many of them still had tears in their eyes.

It's so exciting......

For so many years, the Han court has been losing things, losing the jade seal, losing the capital, and almost losing the world.

Liu Xie nodded, and rushed to the front of the four people: "You have made great contributions to quelling the Yuan Shu rebellion and regaining the jade seal."

Cao Ang was named the general of Zhenguo, Cao Chun was the general of Pingnan, and Xiahou Yuan was the general of Annan. ”

In fact, Cao Ang's Zhenguo General is similar to General Zhengnan, both of them are military generals who are analogous to the second rank of later generations, and General Pingnan and General Annan are both official positions that are analogous to the third grade.

This time the letter is such a high military rank, which is enough to see the emperor's affirmation of this southern expedition.

But Cao Ang heard a question.

Liu Ping still hasn't been rewarded......

Could it be that the Son of Heaven really thinks that Liu Ping's official position is high enough and is no longer ready to be sealed?

At this time, Liu Xiedao: "Liu Qing continues to serve as the general of Pingxi, and Pingling Pavilion waits for ......."

As soon as these words came out, regardless of whether it was Cao Ang and others or the Manchu ministers, there was an uproar.

Sure enough, Liu Ping's official position has not changed.

But everyone understands that most of the meritorious achievements of the Southern Expeditionary Army this time are because of Liu Ping strategizing behind the scenes.

"Your Majesty......"

Cao Ang immediately exited, ready to complain for his brother.

Liu Xie waved his hand and said indifferently: "As for Liu Qing, I will make this arrangement......
