For several days, this motley army was stationed on the banks of the Kwai River. However, the treatment can be very different, and the county lieutenants in the surrounding counties have brought their own supplies for the labor army and constantly transported them. Just to receive them, it was enough for Sui Yi and Su Yan to work for a while.

Sui Yi is worthy of being a businessman, and the reception officials can be described as comprehensive, respectful and humble, but still a little dignified, so that those county lieutenants dare not offend him, a hero who has just broken through the Turkic army.

Liu Yu, with the help of Qi Fang and Li Mi, dealt with post-war matters.

At the same time, Liu Yu was also considering the battle report.

On 18 March, news came from the front that about 6,000 Turkic iron wolf guards who had escaped from the Yellow River had crossed the Yellow River and returned to Shaowu Pass, which had been recaptured by the imperial army on 16 March. After the new Turkic khan succeeded to the throne, a major raid on Liwei ended dismally in a head-heavy manner. The vitality of the Turks has been greatly damaged, and it is estimated that there will be no large-scale invasion of the territory in a year or two.

On March 23, it had been almost a month since Liu Yu left Chang'an, and he was nostalgic for the leisurely time in Chang'an City, when the envoys of the imperial court came to the dust. There were not many envoys from the labor army, except for a few guards, and the foreman was a eunuch surnamed Lu. In the group, Liu Yu saw a familiar face, it was Han Sheng, the emperor's advisor.

"Nine Emperor Princes, congratulations." Lu Gonggong's face was a philistine, and in the greeting team of the group, he went straight to the direction of Su Yan, "This time, I am actually fortunate to be able to assist my daughter's army to defeat the Turkic barbarians, and the future is immeasurable." ”

When Liu Yu asked Su Yan to play the battle report, he specially drafted a copy first, basically saying that this was the credit of the daughter army, and their defense army that was "suppressing bandits" and "encountering Turkic cavalry" was just a coincidence.

In Liu Yu's words to Su Yan, as long as you let the emperor understand your credit, you can't take great credit, let alone give away the credit. After all, now Su Yan's strength is weak, and if he suddenly stands in the court with such great merits, all parties will definitely take him as the first target, which is really unwise.

Lu Gonggong read out the holy decree in public, basically saying that all military positions will be temporarily promoted to the third level and returned to Beijing for recruitment, and some meritorious soldiers will also be rewarded with fields and wealth, and even Li Du, the lieutenant of Huaishang County, has been promoted to the third level and transferred to Beijing for his meritorious service in helping the war. The holy decree was written very vaguely, except for Li Du, the other people did not specify the individual, Liu Yue Zhilu said, those city and county lieutenants who came to send labor and military goods also wanted to get a piece of the pie, as long as they were mentioned in the specific reward list, the black yarn on their heads would be raised to a few levels.

The matter of entertaining Father-in-law Lu was done by Su Yan and Sui Yi, and Qi Fang and Li Mi were also accompanied, but Liu Yu looked for an opportunity to find a secluded house with Han Sheng, and the old friends talked about their daily routines.

"Little Brother Liu, I have to admire you, you have received such a great credit, you are not mentioned in the battle report of the Imperial Court, on the contrary, the people around you are among them. It is rare to be proud of your achievements. Han Sheng took the teacup handed over by Liu Yu and said with a smile.

Liu Yu sat down on the side, and said with a smile indifferently: "The battle report of the court is very fair, in fact, I found an opportunity to hide before the war started that day, a deserter, it would be good if I didn't treat my crime." ”

Han Sheng stepped forward and said, "It's to save your future wife, right?" ”

Liu Yu was stunned at the moment, a little panicked, and didn't understand how Han Sheng knew.

Han Sheng Ha said with a smile: "There are some things that you can hide from those errand boys, but you can't hide them from me." Or is the battle report on the daughter army's side detailed, and the ins and outs of the entire battlefield are comprehensive, but the matter of the Xu family's little girl being left alone is very vague, saying that she is out of trouble because of the enemy, and she can still get out of trouble if she falls into the siege of the Turkic Iron Wolf Guard? I came here to inquire, and sure enough, there was a trick, it turned out that it was your kid hero who saved the beauty. ”

Liu Yu sighed and said, "Seeing that she is in trouble, how can I stand still." ”

"Do you think I should be glad that I found a good husband for the little daughter of the Xu family, or should I be unhappy for my two granddaughters?" Liu Yu's eyes suddenly became ambiguous, obviously jealous of his two granddaughters.

Liu Yu hurriedly said: "Brother Han, don't worry, Xiaoyi and Xiaoting sisters, I will treat them well." ”

Liu Yu told Han Sheng in detail about the battle that day, and Han Sheng nodded after listening to it: "It's not bad with what your daughter army reported, but you should also understand that this credit is placed on the general, and if it is placed on the Nine Emperor Ziyan, it will be a bit too much." Therefore, the emperor would rather accept your untrue war report, and selectively ignore the war report of the daughter army. ”

Liu Yu nodded and said, "I'm also afraid that Su Yan will be too presumptuous and hated by others, after all, the gun will shoot the first bird." ”

"Gun...... Hit the first bird? How to fight, throw a stab to the thorn? Han Sheng didn't understand Liu Yu's analogy.

Liu Yu explained slightly, and roughly said that the bird with its head is easy to die. Han Sheng was also surprised by Liu Yu's occasional thoughtful strange words, and he didn't dwell too hard. If Liu Yuzhen told him in detail what the "gun" was all about, Han Sheng would have to force him to make it.

"This time, the emperor's will is to say, when we go back, we will also bring back the meritorious ministers among you and receive rewards together. After all, this place is thousands of miles from the front line, and the post-war affairs can be handled by the local government. Also, the emperor also made it clear that when he goes back this time, he will hold a marriage for the little daughter of the Xu family, the commander of the daughter army, and I want to congratulate you in advance. ”

Liu Yu thanked him.

Han Sheng said: "Little Brother Liu, there is one thing, I have been thinking about it in the capital for a long time and I can't understand it, with you as smart as you, can you refer to it for me?" ”

"What?" Liu Yu was a little confused, they were already preparing to go out to join everyone, but Han Sheng suddenly diverted his conversation.

"Here's the thing, the emperor has been obsessed with pills for the past two months, especially recently, the fourth princess went to Huangshan to find medicine for the emperor, but she didn't find a prescription, but found a self-proclaimed half-immortal Wu You. It is also strange to say that although the elixir practiced by Wu You can reduce the emperor's hemoptysis, it also makes the emperor confused all day long, and there are fewer and fewer times in the day. Brother Liu, can you tell me what is going on? ”

Liu Yuxin said that it should be a mental paralysis pill, just like a painkiller, something that treats the symptoms but not the root cause. But there are some things that can't be said too clearly.

The four princesses can be said to be in full swing in the court, and their momentum has even overshadowed the prince who is in the limelight, and many people think that the four princesses are also very likely to inherit the unification. This time, I found a magic stick to make the emperor happy, and the emperor will definitely look at it differently.

The four princesses are very deep in the city, and the four horses are stupid and incompetent, and they can't even breathe when they are pressed by her. However, because of this, the "imperial husband" of the four horses will definitely not make trouble, which is deeply in line with the truth that the heirloom woman must be able to govern the family and the country. There are many women who can govern the country, but there are very few women who can govern the men in the family.

"The emperor is old and in poor health, and it is normal to be obsessed with some elixirs that strengthen the body or immortality. I don't understand pharmacology, and I don't know how to refine pills, so I ...... I can't help Brother Han. ”

Han Sheng said helplessly: "It's a pity that the emperor was blinded by that Wu You, and he sometimes didn't even pay attention to the war, and he practiced and meditated in retreat with all kinds of tricks. That Wu You is now a national teacher, and Little Brother Liu will definitely meet him in the future, so he should be careful. ”

Liu Yu is no longer obsessed with official positions, and he has no plans to enter the court this time. I should be careful in my mouth, but I don't care about it in my heart, so I shouldn't be able to meet it in the future.
