Chapter 34: On the Reward of Meritorious Deeds
After the ladies entered the house, it was a mess, and the maids hurriedly started to clean up.
"Master, did the vixen make you angry again?"
"Sir, you should stay away from him."
"That's it, our sisters can't serve you, the master can marry another 9th room, the 10th room can be, how to provoke this kind of woman!" ……
A few ladies are here, you say a word to me.
"Get out of here, all of you!" Sima Rui's anger did not subside.
The eldest lady, the second lady, the third lady, the fourth lady, the fifth lady, and the sixth lady all went out.
"Lingling, you stay." When it was the turn of the eighth lady, Sima Rui stopped him.
"Humph! It's your Lingling again......"
"Then what's the solution, who made the brother of the family too guarded!"
"What's wrong with Taishou, my sister is still the daughter of the champion."
"Sister, that's all a few hundred years old, how can it compare to my sister's mother's family, but it's a rich businessman in the capital." ……
The rest of the ladies all pouted and grumbled away.
"Why is that vixen angry with you?" Eighth Lady Yu Wenling looked at this sloppy man and said disdainfully.
"Lingling, don't think about it, he's just my subordinate." The anger on Sima Rui's face was gone, and a smile appeared on his face.
"If you don't say it, Lingling will also get out on the orders of the master." Yu Wenling was bloated, and she was about to leave with the maid.
"Madame, Madame...... You all go out. ”
Sima Rui sent out all the idle people, took Yu Wenling in his arms, smiled all over his face, and repeated Mei Wuniang's words just now, and his face was angry again.
"You can't listen to that fox spirit, the hope of the whole city is now on Liu Zhen, my nephew Yuwen Zhou will have at least 10 days to get out of the customs, so it will take half a month for reinforcements to come, but the surname Liu really has ambitions, which can weaken his military power."
"Or my Lingling is smart......" said Yu Wenling in his arms and gnawed heavily.
"You dead ghost can't do it, don't mess with the old lady!" Yuwen Ling scolded him coquettishly and pushed him away......
The next day, the city lord's mansion discussed the military situation again.
Gan Hui, Zhao Hu, Ma Liang, Liu Zhen and Mei Wuniang were all present.
Sima Rui, who had a thinner and longer face and was dressed in a gray cloth robe, sat precariously and swept over every familiar face.
That gaze lingered on Yoo Jin's face for a moment, and then moved away.
The celebration banquet has already been arranged, and today is the day to reward meritorious deeds.
Sima Rui cleared his throat, opened the merit book, and rewarded the main meritorious soldiers.
"Mei Wuniang's first merit was promoted to the seventh level of the army, and the salary increased by five stones and ten taels of silver."
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar.
all thought that this was the first to be rewarded, and it must have been Liu Zhen, but it turned out to be Mei Wuniang.
This woman did make a lot of contributions in this battle, but how could she be on par with Liu Zhenzhen?
Maybe the big rewards are at the bottom of the list.
Seeing that Liu Zhen's face was calm and indifferent, everyone present thought so for a while.
"Thank you for your support." Mei Wuniang glanced at Liu Zhen and thanked him deliberately.
It turned out that she only joined the army at level 5, while Liu Zhen joined the army at level 3, and she was promoted by two levels, and she increased so much food and money every month, of course Mei Wuniang was happy.
"Ma Liang made one of his first contributions, and was promoted to the deputy general of the co-ordination and the deputy city lord, with an increase of 15 stone of grain and 15 taels of silver."
This treatment is the same as Zhao Heng's treatment before, this is something that Ma Liang could never have imagined no matter what.
In the past, he was an assistant vice-president, and there was only one co-ordinate, that is, the city lord, but there were many co-deputies, not to mention the other city lists, and there were fifteen at most when there were mixed city co-deputies.
But there is only one deputy city lord, that is, the second-in-command of Mixed Yuan City.
Such a promotion is more effective than how many levels others have been promoted.
He couldn't have imagined this position before, and it wouldn't be his turn at all. Now he didn't dare to think about it, because this position should be Liu Zhen.
But the lord of the city gave him the chair.
So he didn't react for a long time, and he suspected that his ears were wrong. Then Ma Liang was grateful, knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "Thank you city lord Tishi, thank you city lord." ”
The generals present were in a commotion again, and they exchanged heads and ears.
Then they all looked at Liu Zhen, who was still as calm as ever.
In the eyes of those who didn't see these voids at all, what he was thinking about now was how to break through to another layer of cultivation and enter the transformation realm.
However, this layer was relatively very difficult, and he cultivated for a few nights without progress.
He had to take an elixir called the Moonfood Flower, which grew only at night by the light of the moon.
Grows at night and blooms at night, taking its stamens.
This medicine is an extremely cold elixir, and if it can be combined with the extreme spirit medicine Sun Flower, it is said to be able to bring people back to life.
Only by borrowing this elixir can Liu Zhen make his martial arts cultivation achieve a breakthrough from foundation building to transformation realm.
I just don't know where to find this moon flower.
In the past two days, Liu Zhen's mind has been full of these things.
He didn't pay attention to some other trivial matters at all.
Intentionally or unintentionally, Mei Wuniang and Sima Rui both watched Liu Zhen's reaction.
Especially Mei Wuniang, this is a trick she set up in order to take revenge on Liu, he thinks that Liu Zhen hurt him too deeply.
She had to make the man pay.
But Liu Zhen's face was as white as jade, at this time, the wind was light, not shocked, and calm as water, as if he hadn't heard all this.
"Pretend, see how long you can pretend!" Mei Wuniang is indifferent to beauty, if he is indifferent to beauties, can he still be indifferent to money and status?
If so, is he still a man?
From Mei Wuniang to the general Ji'an, from the first merit to the great merit, Sima Rui read out the city lord's order, and he didn't even mention Liu Zhen.
Finally, when it was time to disperse, Liu Zhen was about to leave the venue, and Sima Rui announced another thing, which was the only time that Liu Zhen's name was called.
Let him be the supervisor of the soldiers and horses in the city, let Ma Liang temporarily be the generalissimo of the soldiers and horses in the city, and hand over all the prisoner matters and military power to Ma Liang.
Then let Liu Zhen and Mei Wuniang go down to prepare, give them a day to prepare, and set off to Huoyun Village to borrow food and pay a day later.
This is the standard rise and fall of the dark, and anyone with a discerning eye can see it, but no one has spoken to seek justice for Liu Zhen.
"No." Mei Wuniang gained fame and fortune and was triumphant.
Then he gloated at Yoo Jin, and the beautiful peach blossom eyes revealed infinite banter and contempt.
I really thought I was amazing, and now I know how many pounds and taels I have, right?
Fighting with the old lady, the hair is still a little tender!
Liu was really happy not to be in the city, he was so anxious that he couldn't wait to leave Mixed Yuan City now, and when he heard this, he gladly agreed.
