Chapter 667: Surrender
677
The Empress's words were like a gust of wind blowing across the water, and the Emperor just frowned and skimmed over.
Just three days after Concubine Zeng Li gave birth, she was officially canonized as the imperial concubine, and her son was named King Zhao, with thousands of households and amnesty to the world.
Zhong Ye was far away from the front line, so he naturally didn't know about these news.
However, at this time, he was still a little apprehensive, sitting motionless in the tent.
The lieutenants under him, you look at me, I look at you, and finally turned their eyes to the gourd on the side.
Hulu was making tea, and after receiving everyone's gaze, he sighed lightly, poured a cup of tea, brought it to Zhong Ye and said, "Grandpa drinks tea." ”
Zhong Ye came back to his senses at this time, didn't drink tea, and said, "Call him in!" ”
The person Zhong Ye was talking about was Yuan Shichuan's lieutenant Pang Bo, who had fought Zhong Ye and returned from a great defeat in Qin County.
The reason why he came to see Zhong Ye was because he led his own soldiers to slash the traitor leader Yuan Shichuan under the sword, and then ordered the whole army to disarm, and he personally came to see Zhong Ye to show his sincerity.
The reason why Zhong Ye was stunned was because he didn't expect this kind of thing to happen at all, he had already planned how to exterminate the rebels step by step, who thought that before he could use all his strength, the counterinsurgency would come to an abrupt end.
He couldn't accept it for a while, so when his subordinates reported that Pang Bo was guilty outside the tent, he couldn't help but be stunned.
This is a stick of incense is time, and his lieutenants didn't dare to call him, and in the end it was a gourd out of the horse.
Hulu couldn't help but sympathize with his own father-in-law, and he tried his best to show his skills but gave up halfway. It's like a Danqing skillful hand, who is splashing ink on the scroll to paint a peerless treasure, but someone snatches the pen out of thin air in the middle of the painting.
But at this point, we can only accept that we must not stir up the rebels again to continue the rebellion.
What's more, this reduces the number of casualties, which is also a good thing, and Zhong Ye also uses it to comfort himself.
That Pang Bo saw Zhong Ye and made a sincere statement, but Zhong Ye only gave him one sentence: "Vice General Pang is a handsome man." ”
Those who know the times are Junjie.
Five days later, Kuaima hurriedly reported to the capital, saying that Yuan Shichuan, the leader of the rebel army, was killed, the remnants of the rebels surrendered, and Shuolianhe Sanzhou was recovered.
As soon as the good news spread, the whole country rejoiced, and those who originally intended to slander Zhong Ye also shut up.
The emperor was even more overjoyed, and said: "Such a smooth operation is really beyond the expectations of the widow, this is all a blessing for the child to have this great luck!" ”
The child born to Concubine Zeng Li is a pig and has a milk name, and the emperor loves Wu and Wu, so he prefers this little son very much.
These words reached the queen's ears, adding to the gloom of her already bad mood.
The emperor's love for Concubine Zeng Li's mother and son has reached an outrageous level, and no matter how patient the queen is, she can't do it without obstacles.
What's more, she already had a problem with Concubine Zeng Li in her heart, and now she has given birth to a son, which makes the queen feel more and more threatened.
After Zhong Ye ordered someone to send out the good news, he began to reorganize the rebels who surrendered, and there were many matters that needed to be handed over, and it was necessary to make detailed records.
Half a month has passed after this toss, and the newly appointed Sanzhou Taishou of the imperial court has also arrived, and Zhong Ye will inevitably have a handover with them.
According to the holy decree, except for the original officers and soldiers who also returned to Beijing, the rest of the troops remained in these three states as standing armies.
Pang Bo has merit and merit, so he has to return to Beijing with Zhong Ye to wait for his fate.
By the time Zhong Ye set out on his way home, it was already February.
The climate in the border area is still cold, and there is no warmth in sight.
But the mood of the soldiers is very different from when they came, and now they have made military achievements and been rewarded, and they can be regarded as earning their heads, and they can give an explanation to their families after they go back, and they naturally feel angry.
Even the green onion, who was the most uncompetitive at the beginning, was riding on a horse at this time with his head held high, and he had a bit of the momentum of a martial artist.
This time he killed a total of twelve enemies, although it was not much, but he could see it, at least he was very content.
Because he traveled lightly and everyone was like an arrow, it only took more than six days to rush back to the capital.
Along the way, he was praised by the people everywhere, and even more so when he arrived in the capital.
People stood shoulder to shoulder on both sides of the street, admiring Zhong Ye's majestic posture, saying that he was heroic, like a heavenly soldier descending, and the rebels were naturally not opponents.
There were special people in the imperial court who came to greet them, and it was none other than Duan Wang Ye and the prince.
The reason why Zhong Ye was able to lead troops to quell the rebellion this time was that Duanwang's father and son played a vital role, and they could be said to be his nobles.
Therefore, Zhong Ye was very grateful to the two of them, and immediately dismounted and saluted after meeting, although King Duan did not dismount, the prince turned off the horse and helped him up.
Zhong Ye thanked him repeatedly, King Duan praised him sincerely, and encouraged him with a smile: "You have made great contributions this time, and the Holy Lord will definitely promote you, and the road ahead is still long, so you can't be taken lightly." ”
Zhong Ye was very grateful.
Because of the wind and dust all the way, he could not directly face the saint, and he had to bathe and change his clothes before entering the palace the next morning.
Zhong Zhongye was going to go back to the house, but the prince of Duanwang did not let him go back, but took him to his own annex, where everything was complete, and there were hundreds of people.
Zhong Ye knew this place, when Qian Qianyi gathered here to drink, Zhong Ye once forced himself to come here to teach the Feng brothers a lesson.
Now that several years have passed, those two people are afraid that they have been reincarnated.
Qian Qianyi pointed to the knife mark on a pillar under the corridor and said with a smile: "I haven't let anyone repair it here, such an interesting thing must leave a mark." I didn't know you well at the time, and what you did at the time really scared the hell out of me. ”
Zhong Ye couldn't help but wonder: "The prince didn't trouble me that time, which shows that you are very generous." ”
"But speaking of which, why did you beat Feng Yamato Feng Er that time?" Qian Qianyi was very curious.
"It's okay to say," Zhong Ye said with a smile, "because that time they tried to do something wrong to Yining." ”
"It turned out to be a red face when he was angry, good! Grandpa Zhong is worthy of being a man! Qian Qianyi clapped her hands and praised: "Speaking of Yining, I don't know where she is now." Yan Ba and the others wrote back every once in a while. ”
At the mention of this, both of them couldn't help but be gloomy.
Wei Yingjue and Wei Hongan's two children were missing, Wei Yining and Wei Lanshan went out to look for them, and now more than two months have passed, but they still haven't been found.
The more time passes, the more hopeless it becomes, and the pain of searching for it is unbearable.
Zhong Ye has always been worried about Wei Yining, especially the day before entering Beijing, two of his cronies came back to return to their lives, saying that they were attacked by unknown people on the way to find Wei Yining, and only the two of them escaped.
