In the middle of the dark night, the palace was brightly lit.

Yanziji went south in the first battle and the Jin army was annihilated, which was an unprecedented record for the Hua Dynasty.

From the king to the people, no one in Jiangning City is rejoicing.

They won, thwarted the Jin people's attempt to destroy the Hua Dynasty, and also saved their own lives.

"Lin Shi said, this cup of wine is the king's respect for you!"

Wine and delicacies, the mid-range king raised his glass to Lin Mu.

The eyes of the officials and generals looking at Lin Mu were envious and jealous, and the officials present did not have a higher position than Lin Mu, but King Duan let Lin Mu sit on his right hand, which showed that King Duan valued Lin Mu.

"Your Highness has been tortured, and you should respect Your Highness." Lin Mu behaved respectfully, not daring to show the slightest smugness.

His performance in this battle was too eye-catching, and now that the war is over, this kind of achievement will definitely be hated, and if he is rude again, he will leave people to talk about it.

Moreover, it is a taboo to be a master of high merit, so now he is more worried than before the war, and he can't predict how the court will give feedback next.

Because of this, he prepared for the worst.

King Duan drank all the wine in the cup, with a smile in his drunken eyes, "Lin Shi said that there is no need to be modest, and the king of Ming Japan will go to the court to ask for merit for Lin Shi." ”

Lin Mu didn't care about the rewards of the imperial court, and now he just hoped that the imperial court would not make any tricks to hinder him.

King Duan's voice fell, and everyone present was even more envious.

Liu Jiangbai was already drunk, he said at this time; "Lin Mu, although Jiangning City has been defended, the war is far from over, the Jin soldiers have gone all the way south to occupy a large number of cities in Jiangbei, and these cities should be recaptured."

Taking another sip of the wine glass, he said again: "And there is also a way for the Jin army to attack Shu in the south, and the war is not optimistic, I am afraid that the war in the future will be protracted, but I am afraid that it will depend on the Ning army." ”

This topic made the pleasant atmosphere of the banquet suddenly heavy, and it was clear that now was not the time to completely relax.

This Jiangning fiasco will inevitably be annoyed by the Jin people, and no one can be sure what the Jin Dynasty will decide next.

"As long as the imperial court can trust the Ning army, not to mention the land of Jiangbei, even if it is impossible to drive the Jin people out of the Central Plains." Lin Mu said loudly, very confident before speaking.

Duan Wang's eyes lit up when he heard this, Liu Jiangbai nodded with satisfaction, and the other officials had different expressions, some admiring and some showing sarcasm.

Lin Mu didn't care, these people were just stumbling blocks hindering the development of the Hua Dynasty, and he didn't bother to pay attention to them.

"For example, the one who turns the tide today must be Lin Shi." King Duan became more and more excited, in his opinion, if he could get Lin Mu's support, it would not be impossible to inherit the throne in the future.

So he had already made up his mind to support Lin Mu with the Fa-Chang faction and make him his right-hand man.

Thinking of this, King Duan drank a few more drinks with Lin Mu, and everyone didn't go back until midnight.

When Lin Mu returned to Wubao, the moon had already reached midheaven, and Lu Zhen and Lin Rui had been guarding the city gate for fear of his safety, and they were relieved to see him come back.

Back in the courtyard, Uncle Zhang, Xiao Ke and others immediately surrounded them, and the slaves didn't even sleep with everyone.

"It's so late, why haven't you slept yet?" Lin Mu looked surprised.

The slave rubbed his eyes and was about to fall asleep, "Sister Xiao Ke said that Daddy defeated the Jin people, and now he is a big hero, and we have to wait for the big hero to come back." ”

Lin Mu smiled helplessly, "Now that the big hero is back, you should also sleep." ”

Everyone laughed, Uncle Zhang saw that Lin Mu was full of alcohol and walked a little swaying, knowing that he must have drunk a lot, he sent the others back to sleep, and looked at Xiao Ke, "The young master has drunk a lot of wine, you take care of it at night." ”

Xiao Ke's face was slightly red, and he nodded slightly.

The slave is still young, if she hadn't been strong enough to hold on, she would have fallen asleep a long time ago, and now that Lin Mu is back, she finally can't hold it anymore, and she will fall asleep on Xiao Ke on the outside.

Picking up the slave, Lin Mu's afterglow swept to see that there was still a candle flame in Liu Ruyan's room, and after thinking that it was inconvenient for him to disturb, he went back by himself.

When Lin Mu's figure disappeared, the door of the wing room "creaked" and opened a gap, and Xiao Luan's head poked out and retracted.

"Miss, now that Jiangning City is safe, we should also move back, it's really boring to live here." Xiao Luan showed a sly look.

"Although the war is over, the city will definitely be busy for a while, and besides, Daddy didn't let us go back." Liu Ruyan said that his heart was empty.

Xiao Luan smiled: "Then Xiao Luan will go to the master tomorrow to see what the master says." ”

"You girl, can't you be accommodated here? All day shouting to go back. Liu Ruyan was a little angry.

Xiao Luan smiled ambiguously, "I'm afraid that Miss doesn't want to go back now, now Lin Mu has become a big hero admired by everyone, and in a few days, I don't know how many famous ladies in Jiangning City will rush to come to the door to propose." ”

A touch of red flew on Liu Ruyan's face, "If you talk nonsense, be careful that I tear your mouth apart." ”

"The slave didn't talk nonsense, otherwise why wouldn't Miss sleep now, she had to wait until Lin Mu came back." Xiao Luan's eyes rolled.

Liu Ruyan put down the female red in her hand, got up and twisted Xiao Luan's mouth, Xiao Luan laughed and dodged.

The next day, Lin Mu slept until noon before getting up, and yesterday's drunkenness made him still have a headache.

After a simple meal, he immediately went to the army.

The Ning army suffered a lot of casualties in this war, and these soldiers needed to be compensated, and at the same time, the guns and ammunition of the Ning army also needed to be repaired and supplied.

Last night, Liu Jiangbai meant to take advantage of the new defeat of the Jin army to pursue and cross the Yangtze River to restore the cities of Jiangbei.

It's just that now although he is in charge of the country, how he will act next is not how he wants to come.

According to Duanwang's meaning, he wanted to send someone to Fuzhou to tell the official family of the current dynasty the news of Jiangning's victory, and wait for the decision of the official Zhao Ji, and this time and again, ten days and a half months are always wanted.

Taking advantage of this time, he naturally had to take the opportunity to deal with Ning Jun's affairs.

When he was busy, Duanwang had sent the news of Jiangning's victory to Lin'an, and then set off from Lin'an to Fuzhou.

In two days, the news first spread in Lin'an, and the government and the opposition shook for a while.

The reformers led by Wen Xianggong suddenly smelled the opportunity to completely suppress the old faction, and a group of reformers praised Lin Mu and sent them to Fuzhou at the same time.

Seven days later, he arrived in Fuzhou.

On this day, Zhao Ji was fishing in the summer resort, and Cao Zhang trotted all the way over with the fold, "Guanjia, Guanjia, Jiangning Victory, Jiangning Victory, more than 200,000 Jin troops were annihilated, and Borji was captured alive." ”

Zhao Ji's excited hand shook, threw the fishing rod into the water, took the fold and looked at it, and after understanding what happened before and after, he laughed, "The Hua Dynasty can't die!" ”
