Waiting to return to the post house from the inn, Lord Hu came to visit, began to greet and reward, in addition to Song Yang for the national merit, first save the people of the city, and then bravely kill the enemy, the meritorious court will reward Yunyun, said the previous credit, Lord Hu smiled, without a trace of said: "It is especially rare, Mr. Song is willing to take a risk, from the hands of the swallow thief to snatch the source of the waterlogging epidemic poison to the court, this is the real miracle." ”

Unexpectedly, Song Yang did not refute it, and he did not react at all to the statement that 'the source of poison is dedicated to the imperial court'.

turned his face on the spot, laughed angrily, shook his head and denied it...... Before coming to the door, Master Hu thought about all kinds of Song Yang's possible performances, no matter what, he had the words to deal with it, but he didn't expect that the other party would 'have no reaction at all'.

For a while, Master Hu didn't know what to say, and the atmosphere in the room was slightly awkward.

After a while, Master Hu still abandoned those exaggerated remarks and slowly spoke: "The border war, it came too abruptly and too seriously, the court will implement and verify every detail, nothing can be hidden, that poisonous source... The body of the dead man was no exception. ”

"Everyone understands the importance of that corpse, and I don't need to be verbose, it's something that the Son of Heaven is bound to get... If you can't hide it or keep it, instead of delaying, it's better to take the initiative and take the initiative to give it. The old man uses this old life to guarantee that he will definitely ask for credit for you. Master Hu paused for a moment and continued: "What's more, this corpse, Yan Guo will definitely find a way to take it back, and you will never be able to protect it by yourself, if you force it to stay, you will get into trouble." ”

Master Hu sighed, and his tone was heavy: "I know that the dead should be your relatives, but big things can't stop four words: state affairs are important." Please also relax your mind, since you are a relative, he will smile when he sees that you have a bright future. ”

Song Yang turned his head, looked at Master Hu quietly, and said indifferently after a while: "I understand the truth, thank you, my lord." ”

Master Hu didn't say anything more, and said a few words of relief, instructed Song Yang to rest well, recuperate with peace of mind, and said goodbye. In the following seven days, Prime Minister Zuo personally came forward and asked the senior monks in the city to set up a Dharma platform and do great things at the place where Imperial Doctor You was buried, and kept surpassing the dead soul all night.

And in the past seven days, the military exchanges and the Hongcheng army were busy in a mess, guiding the people, hoarding baggage, preparing the army, and preparing to deal with the invasion of Yanqi at any time, and it was not even too late to 'clean up' the front of the Folding Bridge Pass, and Hongcheng temporarily became the first pass of Nanli to resist the north. However, there was no movement on Dayan's side, and after the Takeshan Battalion was destroyed, the remaining six battalions only strengthened their vigilance, and did not assemble, let alone send troops.

Ren Xiaozhu seemed to have important things to do, and after Song Yang returned to the city, she only stayed for one more day, and then hurriedly set off to return to Beijing.

On the eighth day, Yan Guo suddenly passed the book with flying birds, and finally gave Nanli a statement: Yan highlighted the rebels of the former dynasty, attacked the border pass and seized the mountain camp not long ago, and then fled to the direction of Nanli.

This argument is actually expected, although Yan is far superior to Nanli, but it has its own evils, and if it really wants to invade the south, it will probably cause bad consequences...... At least judging from this finch book, Yan Guo's attitude is already very clear, and this matter ends here. Of course, whether it is Prime Minister Zuo or the city guard of Hongcheng, no one is stupid enough to completely believe the other party and withdraw their defenses, and they will continue to do whatever they need to tighten their defenses.

A few days later, there was also a decree in Phoenix City, since the Red City was guarded, all class captains were rewarded, but Song Yang, who had the greatest credit in this battle, did not mention a word...... After the commendation, there was another mention in the decree: Nan Rickys was ready to set off and continue his journey to the first prize. A war was fought but no official war was declared, and the cheeks between the two countries were still there, and what was agreed in front of them would continue to be done later.

Everything that happened in the previous rain seems to have dissipated with the haze, and there is not much left of it, and no one intends to pursue it anymore...... It's just that those important ministers of Yan State who understand the personality of their emperor all understand that they can just let it go for the time being, and Jingtai will never give up on this matter; Similarly, Ren Xiaozhu and Gu Zhaojun, who knew Song Yang's surname, also dared to bet with their heads: for Song Yang, it was still very early to 'break off'.

The envoys were about to set off again, and Master Hu came to Song Yang's room again, and said with a smile after entering the door: "There is a secret decree for you, ask the old man to read it on his behalf, Song Yang, take the decree." ”

The holy decree is four and six, and the rhetoric is prosperous, but in the final analysis, it is still a certificate of commendation, commending Song Yang for many meritorious achievements in this battle, in addition to rich rewards, he also gave an official position: Chang Chun Wei.

After the holy decree was read, Master Hu personally helped Song Yang up and said with a smile: "The Holy Lord has rewarded you with a secret decree, which can contain a heart of love for talent, congratulations to Mr. Song." "Song Yang also wants to send an envoy to Dayan as a stranger, if he is rewarded in a big way, so that the world knows that he broke the flooding epidemic, destroyed the Yan army, and seized the source of poison, he will not want to return to Nanli from Dayan.

Now Song Yang looks like he is not much different from usual, the indifference between his eyebrows has dissipated, his eyes have returned to his heights, the wounds on his face have also begun to heal, and he nodded and smiled: "I also want to ask the prime minister, what kind of official position is Chang Chunwei." ”

Captain Changchun is not a real title.

Emperor Taizu of Nanli, when the incident occurred more than 100 years ago, he was defeated, and the deployment was scattered and fled to the mountains, fortunately a group of bandits took in, helped, escaped the doom of being hunted down, the leader of the bandits is a man of insight, since then he has followed Taizu's side, first helped him recall the old department and followed him to quell the chaos, and made countless achievements.

When Taizu pacified the four corners of the unification of Nanli, sat on the dragon chair did not treat the king of the mountain badly, tearing the earth and sealing the king to thank him for his merits, the king of the mountain is also called the son of grass, but the king can not be called the king of grass, the grass grows in spring, and the grass grows green in spring, so he sealed the title of "king of spring". This title is a bit of a joke, showing Emperor Taizu's kindness to the King of the Mountain; It also contains an auspicious meaning, showing the emperor's gratitude to the king of the mountain.

But at this time, he showed the insight of the king of the mountain, and actually wrote to the emperor, bowed to the title and territory, and bluntly said that if the emperor really wanted to reward, he would give him an official position that did not need to work, and add more money. The thief became the prince and made the world laugh; He has a fief under his command, which makes hundreds of officials jealous, and he will not be able to benefit from the government or the opposition. At the beginning, the grass was for food, and today I only want to be stable and wealthy...... The king of the mountain was resolute, and the emperor was no longer reluctant, and finally gave him the title of 'Captain Changchun' and sealed the city for thirty miles.

This 'lieutenant' is no longer within the ranks, but only a fictitious title; the thirty-mile fief is not ruled by the territory, and the appointment and dismissal of official posts and the military defense are all arranged by the imperial court, and the 'master' has no part in meddling at all, but all the local tax revenue goes to Chang Chunwei. To put it bluntly, it was the emperor who went out of a city to feed him.

In later generations, the title of 'Captain Changchun' was still retained, and gradually became an exclusive reward for those who came from civilian backgrounds and made great contributions to the country.

"Although it is a fictitious title, it is beneficial, and the income of Fengyi is really a good entry, and 'Chang Chun Wei' is an incomparably noble honor, it may be an exaggeration to say that he is a third-level official, but even if he is an old man, when he sees Mr. Song from now on, he must follow the same etiquette, and he can't pay attention to these vulgar etiquette of his superiors and subordinates." Master Hu smiled hehehe: "Having said that, Mr. Song's meritorious deeds this time, except for the title of Captain Changchun, really can't be deserved." ”

saved the life of an entire Red City; Recapturing and 'dedicating' the source of the waterlogging plague is a great achievement, but in the eyes of Emperor Fenglong, the more important thing is: Song Yang kills people...... Almost half of the camp was extinguished. The young emperor is most afraid that Nanli will be looked down upon by others, and whoever exalts his prestige will be rewarded heavily.

Song Yang also looked happy: "Is there still a feudal city?" I didn't hear it mentioned in the Holy Decree. ”

"It's going to wait for you to be sealed, and then there will be a ceremony, as for where the feud is... may list a few rich places for you to choose, haha, this old man can help in this matter, and keep it to help you choose the most promising place. "Master Hu put the word 'future' on the accent. After casually laughing a few more words, he suddenly changed his words, and his expression became more solemn: "There is still something to discuss with you... There is another will from above, and the corpse is set off. ”

Who escorted and where it was transported was confidential, Master Hu wouldn't say, and Song Yang didn't ask much, just nodded.

Master Hu continued: "The journey is not close, and the road is not smooth, I would like to ask Mr. if there are any matters that need to be careful. ”

"The body is properly sealed, and it doesn't hurt to be a little bumpy, but you need to be careful with two things: first, he is forbidden to be exposed to the sun; Second, the epidemic poison is disgusted with wood in the medicine surname, and walking through the forest will have the effect of suppressing the poison, which is more secure. ”

Master Hu smiled and nodded, and Song Yang also smiled, he had been waiting for the other party's question for several days.

At the same time that Prime Minister Zuo and Chang Chunwei smiled at each other, the mute who was in Yanziping, a town thousands of miles away, was tilting his head and looking at the courtyard wall with a puzzled face.

Xiao Jiu nibbled on an apple and walked from the house to the yard: "Dumb, what are you looking at?" As he spoke, he looked at the mute gaze and then said, "This is the first letter sparrow." ”

A pure white finch was jumping around between the window lattices, Xiao Jiu casually threw most of the apple to the mute, a pair of beautiful little hands made a false hand, and there was a sound of 'poking' in his mouth, changing the finch.

The finch was close to people, and with a flutter of its wings, it jumped into Xiao Jiu's palm, and the dumb man grinned from the side, and the titicap ate all the apples in two bites...... Xiao Jiu untied the note on the letter bird's feet, and there were only a few words on it: Three hundred shows, wait for the red family to be ugly.

The three hundred shows refer to the three hundred mountain and stream shows headed by Feng Song Yang, and the last four words Xiao Jiu only thought about it a little to understand, the red family is ugly... The ugly Qin Cone of the Hongbo Mansion family.

Whether it is the three hundred shows or the red family, it is news that only their own people can understand, and they have to use hidden words to pass the order, which shows that the matter is confidential and important, Xiao Jiu did not dare to delay, and rushed to the dense forest outside the town with a dumb man, and went to find Mu En to gather his subordinates and prepare to run an errand......
