After sealing Bai Wenle, it was Xian Jingyu and the second stunned.

The former had long been unwilling to be above the court, so the empress only rewarded him with some gold, silver, jewelry, and silk cloth.

As for the two stunned people, they fished out a song and made it, which is interesting enough.

The main characters have all been rewarded, and below, it is led by Gonggong Le, and the list of rewards for the counterinsurgency is read (they are all tricks, and there is no need to say in detail.) ）

It is worth mentioning that Liu Maolin was made a Taishi, and Fan Lin made a Shangshu order, which surprised the court officials.

From morning to evening, the reward finally came to an end.

In the end, the empress ordered Daxing City to lift the curfew for three days, and the army had fun casually, which can be regarded as the curtain of today's reward ceremony.

After retiring from the court, the ministers all went back to their respective homes and looked for their own mothers.

Only Wang Xiaolai, when he was about to leave but didn't leave, he was stopped by the empress and called to the imperial study.

The two of them were alone, not even Narcissus.

"Your Majesty, why didn't you tell me in advance about the fact that you had named me Marquis."

Wang Xiaolai sat down and complained.

The empress smiled and sat down opposite Wang Xiaolai, holding Wang Xiaolai's hand: "Okay, okay, don't I plan to surprise you." ”

"Surprised, frightened, didn't you see the expression of the ministers in the court." Wang Xiaolai shook his shoulders and said.

The empress pursed her lips and pretended to be pitiful: "Then I can't be wronged, you're not." ”

Wang Xiaolai: "···"

"Tomorrow, you're going to go on another expedition, aren't you?" The Empress asked.

Wang Xiaolai nodded: "Well, didn't you say it before, what's wrong, Your Majesty?" ”

The empress sighed: "It's nothing, it's just that when I think of how idle your life was before, and then look at the present, it is a day when you don't have a little time, I feel that I can't stand you." ”

Wang Xiaolai was moved by the empress's words: "Your Majesty, I'm stupid, and I can't say anything nice, I think, this is very good, because I can really feel that I am alive, and I am living for Your Majesty, which is different from the nature of the previous mess." ”

The empress glanced at her: "You guy, you are still stupid and can't speak, coaxing me to be happy, but one after another." ”

Wang Xiaolai scratched his head: "These are all heartfelt words. ”

The empress snorted and asked, "How about it, are you sure about going north this time?" ”

"Your Majesty, don't worry, it's all right."

"What if that Huyan Zhuozhuo doesn't agree to the peace talks?"

Wang Xiaolai glared and said: "If you don't agree, you won't agree, there is Yu Qingxie and Li Baiyi, am I still afraid of him?" When it comes to fighting, it's still us who take advantage. ”

The empress giggled: "Aren't you afraid that Yu Qingevil won't listen to you when the time comes?" ”

"Uh, isn't that Li Baiyi?"

The empress nodded: "Anyway, this time you went to the north, not to fight, the main thing, or reconciliation, remember this." ”

"Then you can't put your attitude too low, otherwise, that guy from Huyan Zhuozhuo will kick his nose and face."

"What do you mean?"

"Your Majesty, if you want people to listen to you, you can't just rely on the cards shown in your hand to scare, but you have to let him know that if you continue to fight, he must be the one who suffers, so that he will be well-behaved."

"Are you going to fight Huyan Zhuozhuo?"

Wang Xiaolai nodded: "Yes, there may be more than one." ”

"Why?"

"Huyan Zhuozhuo is a character, if he wins a game, he is likely to hold on, since he is going to do it, he has to be subdued."

The empress smiled thoughtfully: "In this case, well, all the big and small affairs on the front line will be left to you and the imperial uncle to decide, how to do it, it is your business, I only need to see reconciliation with the grassland, and besides, it can't be us who speak first." ”

Wang Xiaolai said with a smile: "Your Majesty, don't worry, there is absolutely no problem." ”

The empress even said: "Even if the first line of defense in the north is ceded to the grassland, I can't bear the reputation of being soft to the grassland, understand?" ”

"Okay, Your Majesty, you can leave it to me, and promise to complete the task."

"Hmm."

"Then I'll go back and prepare first."

Wang Xiao said, and was about to stand up and walk.

The empress grabbed him: "What are you going to prepare?" ”

Wang Xiaolai was stunned for a moment and said, "Point general, otherwise." ”

The empress sneered: "What to order, I have decided for you, just Shen Xiping, Liu Mianyi, Ning Xi and the three of them will go with you." ”

"Ugh."

The empress followed: "You accompany me tonight..."

Without waiting for the empress to finish speaking, Wang Xiaolai immediately stammered: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty..." You, you, you, you..."

As soon as she saw Wang Xiaolai's appearance, the empress knew that this kid must have misunderstood what she meant, snorted, and slapped it over: "Where do you want to go, I let you accompany me to eat." ”

Wang Xiaolai sighed, a little happy and a little lost in his tone: "I thought..."

"Why do you think so?"

"No, no."

How could the empress not know what Wang Xiaolai was thinking in her heart, she laughed, snapped her fingers, and Narcissus pushed the door in.

"Tell the Imperial Dining Room to begin."

"Yes."

Narcissus turned away, and after a while, he led the eunuch and palace maid to bring the prepared meal.

It's nothing, sit down and eat.

Anyway, there are only two people, the empress and herself, Wang Xiaolai is not outside, eating and drinking, and he doesn't care about any etiquette.

The empress only smiled when she saw Wang Xiaolai's appearance, and kept saying: "You eat slowly, no one will rob you." ”

The palace maids waiting next to them all snickered when they saw Wang Xiaolai's appearance.

After being full of wine and food, it was natural that Wang Xiaolai stayed at the request of the empress.

Of course, don't think crookedly, it's not that Wang Xiaolai lives with the empress, besides, now is not the time.

After arranging Wang Xiaolai to the palace where Suizhu lived before she got married, the empress talked for a while and went back.

Poor Wang Xiaolai sighed and said that he thought there was something good.

There was nothing to say all night, and the next day dawned, it was originally the day to praise the officials, but Wang Xiaolai had already ordered the generals, led Shen Xiping, Liu Mianyi, and Ning Xi, with 20,000 soldiers, left Daxing City, and headed north.

In the army, Li Baiyi is naturally indispensable.

As for the rain and evil, when Wang Xiaolai sent someone to look for him, he was still lying in the rouge pile.

The army was about to go out, and he couldn't wait for anyone, so Wang Xiaolai asked people to inform Yu Qingxie, and then set off.

Anyway, with the ability to clear the evil with rain, if you want to catch up with the army, it is not simple.

···

The weather in the north has always been bad, and it was only August, and there were several strong winds.

The soldiers on both sides, still dressed in autumn clothes, felt a little cold.

From the time of the war to the present, the Eight Sages King commanded 300,000 troops in the northern realm, firmly rooted in the second line of defense, and stopped Huyan Zhuo Zhuo for eight months.

The grassland people are already brave and good at fighting, and in terms of individual soldier ability, I am afraid that they are the top.

However, the 400,000 people, no matter what method they used, could not break through the defense of the Eight Sages King, which made the morale of Huyan Zhuozhuo's side more and more poor.

On the other hand, the Northern Legion, after learning that Zhao Sui's rebellion had been put down, was demoralized, and all of them asked the Eight Sages King to defeat Huyan Zhuozhuo.

After all, Sui Yang was a tripartite battlefield at the beginning, and now, only the north is still burning.

In the face of his subordinates' invitation, the Eight Sages King was very calm.

Anyway, he is not in a hurry, he is in a hurry, it must be Huyan Zhuozhuo and them.

After all, it won't take long for the sky to be cold, and at that time, the cold wind is blowing, and Rao is grassland military horse is brave, and he can't withstand God's knife.

When the time comes, as long as they retreat, the Eight Sages will dare to give the order to attack.

After the Thunder Fire Iron Cavalry was brought to the north by the Eight Sages King, he rarely showed up, and the only time he participated in the battle was that Huyan Zhuozhuo's attack was too fierce, and the Eight Sages King had no choice but to pull out this world-famous army for a walk.

The result is obvious, the thunder fire is still the thunder fire, and your uncle is still your uncle.

Once the Thunder Fire Iron Rider, who was already famous in the grassland, appeared, it would be a massacre without suspense.

After all, the world's army, thunder and fire are not in vain.

"Lord Wang, we have been confronting the grassland barbarians for three or two months, and it is time to do it, otherwise, the soldiers below will be a little unable to hold it down."

The Eight Sages King was looking at the book, and Shen Yijing came outside to complain.

Listening to the nagging of this old subordinate, the Eight Sages King raised his head, looked at Shen Yijing and smiled: "Let the soldiers below wait, it's not the time yet." ”
