Sili Hedong County Puzi City.

"Really?!" Zhu Jun looked at the deputy general in front of him excitedly, and his tone trembled a little, but there was no way, after hearing the news, his emotions were really difficult to control.

"It's true! This is a letter sent by Gao Sima, who is under the command of the Marquis of Wushuang and is responsible for guarding the city of the Zi clan! The lieutenant general also said excitedly, and at the same time, presented a letter to Zhu Jun.

"Good! Good! God bless my big man! God bless my big man! Zhu Jun took it and looked at it quickly, and after a while, he suddenly shouted excitedly. As he spoke, he kept walking around the room, as if this was the only way to calm his excitement.

Seeing this, the adjutant general asked again, "General, this is the best opportunity to pacify the northern Hulu in one fell swoop!" ”

Hearing this, Zhu Jun nodded subconsciously, but then looked at the letter again with some strangeness, and after a long while, he said with some amusement, "Forget it, people didn't ask us for support, so why should we force it over?" ”

"Uh......" Hearing Zhu Jun's words, the lieutenant general froze for a moment, but then reacted, and suddenly showed a helpless look, "This unrivaled marquis's subordinates are really confident......

He heard what Zhu Jun meant, since Gao Shun only reported the situation to his side but did not take the initiative to ask for help, the meaning was undoubtedly very obvious. After all, if the credit for defeating the Huns can be shared exclusively, who wants to share it with others? In particular, the annexation of the state itself is Li Yi's jurisdiction, even if Zhu Jun wants to send troops to merge the state, he must first say hello to Li Yi, and at the same time ask the court for his life.

Moreover, the deputy general also knew that there was another reason why Zhu Jun was reluctant to go north and merge with the state.

"Haha~ Who said it wasn't?" Zhu Jun laughed when he heard this, "But people do have that ability, more than 100,000 Yellow Turban thieves, our army can only defend it, but that Gao Shun directly defeated it completely~" Speaking of this, Zhu Jun shook his head helplessly and said, "Alas, old, old......"

"The general laughed~ The general is not yet confused, how can he be old?" Hearing this, the deputy general hurriedly comforted, but he was also emotionally charged in his heart, because he had also seen the strength of the Yellow Turban thief, although it was not very strong, but it was not easy to defeat it in one fell swoop.

If it was Li Yi, the unequaled Marquis, who defeated Guo Tai and the others, it would be easier for people to accept, but now, it was just Sima under Li Yi. This situation made the adjutant general suddenly feel that his military life over the years seemed to be alive to a dog.

Subsequently, Zhu Jun hurriedly went to the court and reported the matter. A few days later, Luoyang.

"Good! All right! It is worthy of Li Qing! That's great! Spirit Emperor Liu Hong said happily, that smile, like a blooming chrysanthemum, was so full and brilliant.

"Reward! Be rewarded! A good reward! Liu Hong said repeatedly. He couldn't be unhappy, he didn't know how much bad news he had received during this time, he didn't know how much bad news he had received, he didn't know how long, he would be awakened by nightmares when he fell asleep at night, and even since this time, he didn't have time to go upside down with his favorite queen He, nor did he have time to go to his favorite bazaar to play the game of merchant guests.

But now, he has a feeling of finally seeing the clouds, and this feeling is so wonderful that it is really difficult for him to help himself.

And when Liu Hong was fluttering with joy, many scholars and doctors below were also cheering, after all, the news that the Yellow Turban Thieves in Baibo Valley were completely defeated was too inspiring, after all, there were rebellions everywhere now, and for so long, only Bao Hong under Zhang Rang's command defeated the Yellow Turban Thieves in Yuzhou. This result made the faces of these scholars quite embarrassing.

Now, Li Yi's meritorious service, although it is only a simple report sent by Zhu Jun, and they don't know the specific information, but being able to make Zhu Jun say that the Yellow Turban thieves in Baibo Valley have been completely wiped out is enough to prove the situation in the state. For a while, the scholars and doctors spoke one after another, asking Liu Hong to reward Li Yi and Gao Shun.

On the side, Zhang Rang and He Jin's expressions were not very good-looking, after all, in this way, the prestige of the scholar doctor undoubtedly became even worse.

The two glanced at each other, and then saw He Jin say to Liu Hong respectfully, "Your Majesty, although it is gratifying to defeat the Yellow Turban thieves in Baibo Valley, but now there are more than 100,000 troops in Taiyuan in the Yellow Turban Thieves in Black Mountain, and even more Hu Lu has not been pacified. The minister thought that it would not be too late to talk about the reward when the Marquis Wushuang was completely pacified and merged with the state. ”

"What the general said is bad, meritorious deeds must be rewarded, and faults must be punished! This is a rule that has been established since the founding of the country by Emperor Gaozu. Now that the Yellow Turban thieves in Baibo Valley have been pacified, it is a great achievement no matter what, how can it be delayed and rewarded? Situ Yuan Kui sneered when he heard this.

It's just that Liu Hong, who recovered from joy by He Jin's words, agreed with He Jin's words, "What He Qing said is not unreasonable, after all, there are still Hu Lu and the Black Mountain Yellow Turban thieves, and Zhu Qing doesn't know the specific situation of Baibo Valley. It's better to wait for Li Qing to report in person, and then reward together. Liu Hong said with a smile.

Then, without giving others a chance to speak, he picked up Zhu Jun's Shangshu and said, "Now that Zhu Qing's family has died of illness, Shangshu hopes to go home to keep filial piety, what do you think?" ”

"Your Majesty, General Zhu is loyal to the country, for the country and the court, when he learned that his family died of illness, he still led his troops to resist the white wave and yellow turban thieves, and now, it is time for him to go home and fulfill his filial piety." The first to jump out was Zhang Rang, who was the middle attendant, and Zhu Jun took the initiative to resign, but Zhang Rang couldn't be happier.

In fact, after learning that Zhu Jun's family died of illness, Zhang Rang pondered letting Zhu Jun go home to keep filial piety. It's just that at that time, he was worried that no one would be able to replace him after Zhu Jun retreated, and if Hedong was broken by the thief army, then he would definitely have to be implicated. Today, however, there is apparently no such concern.

"Well, what Zhang Qing said is reasonable, since this is the case, let's agree to Zhu Qing's request." Liu Hong nodded and said when he heard this. The Han Dynasty ruled the country with filial piety, strictly speaking, even if Zhu Jun made this request before, it was difficult for Emperor Liu Hong to disagree, and now, naturally, there is nothing to think about.

Subsequently, Liu Hong assigned a scholar who was attached to He Jin to serve as the county guard of Hedong, which made Yuan Kui and the others even worse.

"Alas...... It's really ...... for the saint to favor eunuchs and relatives so much" Yuan Kui sighed secretly in his heart, but he didn't know what to do.
