After the end of the spring competition, Qin Huaiyu, the second in the army, also returned to Shuofang on the twenty-first day of the first month! He was accompanied by his new wife, Princess Xiangcheng, and a group of maids, who had also made a home in Shuofang, following the example of Luo Tong. It is said that Princess Xiangcheng was also "bombarded" by her mother-in-law!

Qin Huaiyu's new home is next door to the Governor's Mansion, which was once the residence of Feng Duan, the hussar general of the Liang Division, and is not as large as the Governor's Mansion, but it is also extremely luxurious. If you wait until Cheng Chuliang, Li Yesi, Fang Yiai, Du He, Wang Xuance, Liu Renliang, Ma Zhou, and Shangguan Yi are all married, this Shuo can be lively. It's a pity that Wang Xuance, Liu Renliang, Ma Zhou, and Shangguanyi are career-minded, and they still don't have a favorite woman.

For not being able to participate in the great war, Qin Huaiyu died of depression and regret, but he was also a person who could see it, complained a few words, and presided over the selection of elite soldiers with Luo Tong.

Busy until the end of the month, the preliminary selection was completed, considering that the decisive battle between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks was approaching, Luo Tong retained 60,000 standing troops, and all the unsuccessful arrangements were arranged in Xiazhou for the people, and the fields were distributed by Du He, Ma Zhou, and Shangguan Yi.

Xiazhou has the preferential policies of the imperial court, and the fields are fertile fields opened up by Turkic prisoners of war, and the people are also willing to settle here, they participate in military training when they are busy for farming, and once a big war occurs, Xiazhou can pull up a reserve army of hundreds of thousands of people in just a few days. Gone are the main forces that were lost and there were no troops available.

On this day, Luo Tong was training in the camp in the north of the city, and in the middle of the day, the guards suddenly came to report: "Governor, Mrs. asks to see!" ”

Luo Tong is the number one star in Xiazhou, people know his deeds very well, and they also know that he Luo Tong has three wives, they call Changle "Mrs.", Yaochi "Mrs. Yaochi", and Zheng Liwan, who came from Yanzhou to visit relatives every three or five days, is called "Mrs. Zheng".

Luo Tong thinks that this name is very appropriate, and it is ten thousand times better than the eldest lady, second lady, and third lady who have obvious ranks!

"Why is Changle here?"

Luo Tong listened to the report, and was a little puzzled, except for the celebration Changle never appeared in the barracks. He wiped a handful of sweat, asked Qin Huaiyu to continue to lead the team to train, and hurriedly ran outside the camp on the off-string arrow.

When I came to the camp, I saw Changle and Li Chengqian standing side by side.

Luo Tong was slightly stunned, he couldn't have imagined that Li Chengqian was coming, he hadn't seen him for more than two months, Li Chengqian was still as gentle and elegant as before, he was dressed in civilian clothes, and there were no guards of honor on a grand scale.

Luo Tong dismounted and asked, "Uncle, why are you here?" ”

Li Chengqian said with a smile: "My sister-in-law's great merit has not yet been received." ”

Luo Tong was surprised: "What is the great achievement?" ”

"Father is right, you really forgot." Li Chengqian smiled bitterly: "Didn't my sister-in-law forget, did you break the matter of the 20th Turkic army in Qiwu Mountain?" You have such a meritorious service, how can my father not reward you. But my father waited left and right, but I couldn't wait for your merit watch, and then I heard that you were training vigorously here, and my father said that you might have forgotten, so let me take a look. ”

Luo Tong patted his head, and then remembered their great achievements, he just wrote a battle report and a private letter to Li Shimin. There was no time to get the merit invitation, so they went all out to carry out post-war pension matters, followed by conscription, big competition, and selection, and after the selection of soldiers, they trained wholeheartedly, trying to restore their combat strength in the shortest possible time.

For two months, Luo Tong forgot about the merit.

Thinking of this, he smiled embarrassedly: "Look at my brain, I really forgot about this busyness, hey, I'm so sorry for everyone, this governor is too unscrupulous." It's really ...... to bother my uncle to make this trip, "He doesn't care about the merit reward or something, but his subordinate brothers need it!"

Li Chengqian's expression was moved, and he bowed deeply to Luo Tong: "My sister-in-law's noble quality of forgetting selfishness and serving the country wholeheartedly is really a model for my generation. ”

He admired and respected Luo Tong from the bottom of his heart, this worship of safety is sincere, he has been studying by Li Shimin's side for a long time, and he comes into contact with many meritorious works every day, and some people also use trivial things to show their merits, and the content is even more ridiculous

Luo Tong is good, after he made great achievements, he actually devoted himself to new things, and even forgot about the matter of asking for merit. And just now he only said that he was sorry to everyone, and he didn't mention himself at all, which shows that he didn't value these credits at all.

This sentiment really shocked him,

Luo Tong helped Li Chengqian up, but he didn't dare to say anything.

"I still wonder how to reward it, it turns out that Lang Jun forgot to ask for credit." Princess Changle looked at Luo Tong's eyes, revealing deep worship, she was not looking at people, but gods.

Changle smiled sweetly and gave Luo Tong an autumn spinach.

With a voltage of 100,000 fords, he shook his head and hurriedly looked away and said, "Sin, sin!" How can you forget this, go, go, go, go home, go home, go home, and ask for merit for the soldiers. ”

Li Chengqian said with a smile: "On the day of the opening of the Tang Library, my sister-in-law personally inscribed 'the worries of the world first, and the joy of the world after the world' was regarded as a famous saying by my father, and my father wrote an inscription and hung it on the main hall of the Taiji Hall of the Imperial Palace, hoping that all the civil and military forces would learn from it. I don't see a few people do it, my sister-in-law here must do what he says and does what he does, which really makes me admire. ”

Luo Tong was a little embarrassed, but he accepted it calmly.

Back home!

Li Chengqian said with a smile: "My sister-in-law won the battle and raised my Tang Guowei." My father said that he would send someone to reward me, but it happened that I was made two big by the heavy government affairs, so I hired an envoy from the Ministry of Rites on the grounds of visiting Changle. The reward materials have been handed over to Ma Senjun to receive, and I'll relax in Shuofang for a few days by the way. ”

Luo Tong suddenly realized, he also wondered how he could send the prince of the Tang Dynasty for such a trivial matter as the army, it was originally his own ghost.

"This is the canonization of you and the generals by the father according to the war report, you see, there is no doubt."

Li Chengqian said, and asked Qu Changsun, the military governor of the trip, to hand the canonized holy decree to Luo Tong. Li Shimin dispatched the Xuanjia Army to escort him, which shows that he attaches great importance to Li Chengqian's safety.

Luo Tong watched it carefully, the first to bear the brunt of himself, he has not changed much, he is still the governor of Xiazhou and the champion Hou, the only thing that has changed is that General Yunlu, a military officer, has been promoted to a champion general of the third grade. Then there are some tangible belongings, but they all got to the champion Hou Mansion in Chang'an, which saves the link of carrying back and forth.

The champion general is paired with the champion Hou, it seems that Li Shimin really regards him as "my Huo is sick".

The remaining Liu Boying, Princess Yaochi, Cheng Chuliang, Li Yesi, Almaty, Fang Yiai, Xin Fang'er, Zhao Feiyang, Niu Tong and other generals also have their own rewards, that is, Qin Huaiyu, Wang Xuance, Du He, Liu Renliang, Ma Zhou, and Shangguanyi also received their due rewards.

I have to say that Li Shimin is very good at rewards and punishments, only with a battle report, only with his understanding of the Modao Army can give a reasonable reward, the soldiers who died in battle have also received due compensation, as for the soldiers who participated in the battle, they were paid three times the salary, and the whole commendation decree was a happy situation.

"Makes sense! There is not the slightest deviation. ”

Li Chengqian said with a smile: "Other people should be not bad, but my father feels that the reward for you is lower." ”

"Champion General, Champion Hou...... Majestic enough, I like it. ”

Li Chengqian was stunned and said: "It's exactly the same as what my father said." ”

Luo Tong was stunned: "It's a coincidence!" Isn't it time for an edict? ”

Li Chengqian said: "It seems like this...... Right, General Qu? ”

Qu Changsun said seriously: "It should be, probably so." ”

Luo Tong listened directly to Sparta, and the only thing he thought about was ...... Hundreds of millions of divine beasts rushed by.

O Nima!

You don't know what to pretend to be a minister, and it's too unreliable.

OK!

The Governor's Mansion has Liu Renliang, Ma Zhou, and Shangguan Yi, who are familiar with the process, so that the ceremony can be successfully completed, otherwise, everyone can only look at the holy decree and stare dryly.
