In Zhao Yuan's words, he said to Li Hu: "Go back and rest!" ”

Seeing this, Lin Huaiping hurriedly started the round: "They are all their own brothers, there is something to say, there is no need to make a big fuss, tomorrow to receive the seal, the day after tomorrow to give the edict, at most five days, we can withdraw our troops back to northern Xinjiang, when we return home, the brothers can scold as much as they want, now bear with it, don't let outsiders see the joke!" ”

Half a moment later, the Bei'an military camp was quiet again, but under the quiet, people's hearts had already changed in the wind of war, Lin Huaiping's camp tent, looking at Lin Sheng cup after cup, Lin Huaiping was worried: "Brother Sheng, in this aid war, there are only more than 1,000 soldiers and horses left in the front army, Zhao Yuan's grief is also commonsense, he said nonsense, let's stop it, there is no need to do it with Li Hu, if Brother Xiu knows, he must play fifty boards each, how do you think it will look good on your face?" ”

"Huaiping, do you really think that I am forcing Li Hu because of this?" Lin Sheng replied for no reason, so that Lin Huaiping was unclear.

"Brother Sheng, what do you mean?"

"I'm reminding Zhao Yuan and Li Hu, don't say anything, otherwise you will lose this ancient principle if you talk too much?" Lin Sheng put down the wine glass and said: "Li Hu is clever and cunning, it is the inheritance of his businessman, Zhao Yuan is upright, some words, Zhao Yuan said that it means one, Li Hu said that it means another, now the situation in the capital is unknown, Zhao Yuan mourns that his brother is not found, but Li Hu is clamoring to ask Ah Xiu for his life, fighting for the interests of the brothers, about this, I want to know, with the current situation of the Bei'an Army, the Li Army and the Forbidden Army are all in the limelight, and the Bei'an Army has become Xiumu, how can I ask for a reward?" ”

When Lin Sheng said this, Lin Huaiping understood a little, but he still didn't believe it: "Brother Sheng, these... It shouldn't be that you think too much, Li Hu shouldn't have this meaning! ”

"Think a little more about everything, leave an extra one in what you do, and there is nothing wrong with doing this!" Lin Sheng's words were as heavy as ice for a while, and the whole person looked a lot older.

"After this battle, I found that Ah Xiu has one of the biggest shortcomings, that is, he will not centralize power, the front army, the middle army, and the rear army, it seems that all belong to him, but it is not an order, but a banner of A Xiu, Li Hu is the representative, it seems that he usually does not respect rules and disciplines, but in fact he has many eyes, once the Bei'an Army encounters a catastrophe, this kind of person will protect himself, do you say that at that time Ah Xiu's banner is still useful? If the enemy is our northern Xinjiang people themselves, can he still command the front army and the rear army? ”

"Brother Sheng... I... I think you're overthinking! Lin Huaiping didn't dare to agree with what Lin Sheng thought, and Lin Sheng also knew that his thoughts were a little radical, and after a short speech, Lin Sheng turned around and left, leaving Lin Huaiping to think alone.

"My lord, there seems to be some chaos on the side of the Bei'an Army!"

In the Li military camp, General Zhang He heard the scout report, and immediately asked: "Disturbed?" What irritability? ”

The scout responded: "The subordinates can't hear clearly, it seems that who said what this time to rush to the south, the Bei'an army suffered heavy losses, except for a few jars of horse urine-like wine, and even some baggage cowhides or anything else... As soon as these words passed, there was a lot of noise! ”

When Zhang He heard this, he thought about it carefully, then retreated from the scout, followed Zhang He and hurriedly wrote down the situation, and handed it to his soldiers: "Take this thing, and when the city gate is opened in the middle of tomorrow morning, I will give it to the little grandfather immediately!" ”

"Brother Zhong Yi, it's time to go, today is a good day for us to seal our merits!"

Early in the morning, Zhang Qi came to Lin Xiu's tent to shout, but he didn't know that Lin Xiu had been busy all night because of the preparation of the Bei'an Army.

"Yu Zhi, the imperial order has not been summoned yet, why are you so panicked!"

Lin Xiu laughed, Zhang Qi stepped forward to stop Lin Xiu, and there was no appearance of the previous gap in his cordiality.

"Your Majesty wants to meet you and me today, I think it must be a reward, brother, I am a little surprised by you!"

"What do you mean by that?"

Zhang Qi smiled and said in his ear: "Zhong Yi, you are already a loyal general, I think who among the young generals who are old in the thirties of the Great Summer can be higher than you?" Now that the Yan army has been defeated and retreated, you will definitely be rewarded for your meritorious work after the Bei'an army is broken, and you will advance again from the post of Zhongwu general..."

Zhang Qi didn't finish the rest of the words, as for Lin Xiu, it was like a person immersed in an ice cellar, sober for the most part, after Zhang Qi let go of Lin Xiu, he shouted: "Zhong Yi, you have a good rest, take advantage of this more than an hour of effort, apply ice water to your face, and be spiritual, otherwise you will enter the palace to meet Your Majesty, you don't look good!" ”

When the words fell, Zhang Qi left, leaving Lin Xiu pondering in place, then Tang Chuanwen came closer, looked at Zhang Qi's back and said, "General, what did this guy say?" ”

"Nothing!"

Regarding Lin Xiu's deliberate prevarication, Tang Chuanwen pondered for a moment and said: "General, don't be influenced by him, Zhang Qi is a utilitarian child of a family, after so long, you should..."

"Brother Chuanwen, I know it in my heart!"

Lin Xiu cut off Tang Chuanwen's words, then turned around and left, Tang Chuanwen frowned for a while before walking towards the camp of the pro-cavalry team, that Fang Hua was resting, seeing Tang Chuanwen, Fang Hua was suspicious: "Lord Changshi.. What's the matter with you? ”

Tang Chuanwen listened a few times, Fang Hua's face changed instantly, and finally he said: "I understand in the next, and I will definitely closely monitor the movements of those Li army cubs!" ”

At that time, Lin Xiu and Zhang Qi were summoned by the imperial order to go to Yuhua Pavilion in the imperial city of Zhongdu, the two of them were quite stunned, that Yuhua Pavilion heard that it was the place of scholarly cultivation of the country, and the two of them were military generals, and they knew that today was the occasion of the merit, and Emperor Xia Wu summoned the two to Yuhua Pavilion, which was really puzzling.

It's just that Lin Xiu and Zhang Qi didn't dare to ask Emperor Xia Wu the reason, half an hour later, the two rode to Yuhua Pavilion alone, in front of the pavilion gate, Huang An was already waiting: "Two generals, Your Majesty is resting in the Moon Hall, let the old slave go and preach!" ”

"Lord Lao!"

Lin Xiu bowed his hand and saluted, Huang Anxin was quite comfortable, but Zhang Qi was more pragmatic, taking advantage of Huang An's unpreparedness, Zhang Qi stuffed a small gold ingot into Huang An's belt: "The manager has worked hard!" ”

Huang An looked at Zhang Qi's appearance, smiled and nodded, and turned to leave.

Under the Moon Viewing Hall, Emperor Xia Wu leaned on the dragon chair, at the lower steps of the hall, King Yu knelt and sat on the mat, gently caressing the strings, as a prince, King Yu is also versatile, but at this moment King Yu is not pure in his heart, one is not careful, the strings tremble, a piece of music is suddenly chaotic, and Emperor Xia Wu is also in the mind to open his eyes.

Yu Wang Jingyan hurriedly knelt on the ground: "Father..."

"Why is this your heart in turmoil?"

"The son acted in chaos, and the crime has been added, so I implore my father to punish him!"

Jing Yan's straightforward words made Emperor Xia Wu quite displeased, but Emperor Xia Wu recognized Jing Yan's attitude, as a prince, you must understand the rules and move in proportion, otherwise no matter how much you do, no matter how good you do, in the eyes of the upper imperial power, it is a crime of disrespect and impurity.
