Chapter 55: Adou's Marriage

Returning to the Chengdu Palace, Liu Chan set up a royal banquet to entertain the soldiers who returned from the Southern Expedition.

At the banquet, after the guest of honor sat down, Liu Chan raised his glass on the main seat and said:

"Soldiers, this southern expedition has achieved a great victory, and it will recover Jiaozhou for my Han Dynasty! The lonely heart is very comforted, and a special banquet is set up to celebrate the victory of my great man, and the lonely will also narrate the merits of the meritorious people one by one, reward the meritorious deeds, and reward the three armies! ”

The civil and military ministers sitting on the ground on the left and right sides raised their glasses one after another:

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Then Liu Chan said:

"Ladies and gentlemen, come, drink this cup with Lonely!"

With that, he picked up his glass and drank it all.

The rest of the ministers also drank their glasses of Chinese wine in one go.

Liu Chan was very interested and continued:

"The day before yesterday, Dongwu sent an official document, saying that Zhuge Jin would personally pay Chengdu after the year to discuss with my Han about the boycott of the two countries, which shows that Dongwu is also intimidated by the Tianwei of my Han and does not dare to use swords and soldiers easily."

When everyone heard this, they turned their heads to each other and whispered about it.

Dong Yun sighed:

"I can't imagine that Dongwu will also take the initiative to send an envoy to sue for peace one day, I think that after the battle of Yiling, Deng Zhi made Wu, and was made difficult by Sun Quan in every way, at that time, Sun Quan did he think about the day when there was a turn in feng shui?"

Fei Yi said to Jiang Wan:

"Brother Gongyan still has a vision, I can't imagine that Jiang Boyao can really defeat Dongwu, and now my Han's national fortunes may have changed!"

Jiang Wan said with a smile: "Whether the national fortunes have changed, this is not yet known, but since the envoys sent by Eastern Wu are here, Jiaozhou is stabilized, and my Han will operate for a few more years, and when the Northern Expedition is raised again, it may be completely different from the previous situation." ”

Fei Yi nodded in agreement.

At this time, Liu Chan raised his glass and said:

"Jiang Aiqing, this cup, I want to respect you, it is your surprise army into Jiaozhou that has such a great victory, I want to be a big man, I want to give you a cup."

When Jiang Wei heard this, he hurriedly walked out of his seat and knelt down in the hall:

"These are all relying on Your Majesty's might, the soldiers sacrifice their lives to serve the country, and the ministers can't follow the power of dogs and horses, and the ministers of the Southern Expedition are grateful for Your Majesty's Longen!"

So Liu Chan and Jiang Wei each raised their glasses and drank them all.

Liu Chan said: "Boyo, in front of all the ministers, Lone wants to give you a grace, what reward do you want, just say, Lone will definitely agree." ”

Jiang Wei suddenly felt that this was a bit too much, he was promoted, and he was already a general of the guard at a young age, and he was assassinated in Liangzhou. Where else can I ask for a reward?

But then Jiang Wei thought of a big event again, he had traveled over for so long, and his life's major event had not yet been decided.

It is better to propose it at this moment, which can not only fulfill Liu Chan's grace to reward himself, but also solve his life's major events.

So Jiang Wei said to Liu Chan: "Your Majesty, that minister dares to ask for a favor. ”

When Jiang Wei said this, everyone was surprised, usually when the monarch wants to reward the minister, the minister will often shirk it, so that he can appear to be high-minded and not so eager for quick success.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Wei directly proposed to ask Liu Chan for a favor, which was really unexpected.

Liu Chan was very happy and said to Jiang Wei: "Jiang Aiqing, please say, there is nothing to do!" ”

Jiang Wei smiled and pointed to Guan Yinping in the banquet, and cast a bad smile at Guan Yinping.

Guan Yinping saw Jiang Wei pointing at him, and his beautiful eyes widened, and his face was inexplicable.

Jiang Wei said loudly: "The minister begs His Majesty to marry Guan Yinping to the minister!" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned, they never expected that Jiang Wei would make such a contribution, the monarch gave such a great grace, and Jiang Wei asked for only a marriage, which was very unexpected.

However, Jiang Wei is not young anymore, he is still unmarried, marriage is a major event in life, and Jiang Wei has indeed reached the time to marry a wife, so he smiled silently and looked at Guan Yinping.

Guan Yinping is twenty-seven years old this year, and in this era, she is already an older leftover girl who can't be left.

Liu Chan immediately smiled: "Hahahaha, good!" Jiang Aiqing, Lone promised you? Lone will make a decree now and give you a marriage! ”

Liu Chan thought for a while, and then said: "Guan Yinping is after Guan Yu, the elder brother in the family has passed away, and Lone will entrust a big one, as her brother, to marry her, in addition, Lone will also seal Guan Yinping as the princess of Guanghan, and marry you as the princess of the Han Dynasty!" ”

As soon as Liu Chan's words fell, everyone congratulated Jiang Wei and Guan Yinping and congratulated the couple.

Guan Yinping's face was flushed with shame, he couldn't hang up anymore, quickly got up, and escaped from the palace in a puff of smoke.

"The bride-to-be is shy!" Zhuge Zhan took the lead in coaxing, causing everyone to laugh.

The happy atmosphere spread throughout the hall, and Jiang Wei's wedding was immediately followed by the big victory, which made everyone feel happy.

Only Hua Fei quietly left the table with an unhappy face.

However, there were more people in the main hall, and no one noticed that the Queen of Flowers had left unconsciously.

A celebration banquet, the guests and hosts were happy, and everyone drank heartily.

Early the next morning, Huang Hao came to Jiang Wei's mansion and said that Emperor Liu Chan was going to summon Jiang Wei, Jiang Wei followed Huang Hao into the palace in a hurry, and in Liu Chan's side hall, Liu Chan met Jiang Wan and Jiang Wei alone.

In a private meeting, Liu Chan had no idea about Jiang Wei, and said with a smile:

"Big brother, I have made Taishi Ling fully responsible for your marriage, Qin Tianjian has given an auspicious day, the sixth day of the first month is an auspicious day, I will give you the decision on your wedding date, it will be set on the sixth day of the first month, when Jiang Wan will give you the master of ceremonies, I will give you the officiating marriage!"

Jiang Wei thanked and smiled and agreed: "Adou, if you think about it carefully, then I will thank you!" ”

Liu Chan smiled and said, "What else is polite between our brothers?" ”

Seeing that the two brothers were talking happily, Jiang Wan hurriedly said: "Boyo, this time His Majesty summoned me and others to the palace to discuss the matter of the soldiers of the Southern Expedition. ”

Liu Chan nodded and said, "Yes, big brother, how to talk about your merits, tell me your opinion!" ”

Jiang Wei actually had a plan in his heart, so he said to Liu Chan:

"Adou, you are Your Majesty, so it was originally inconvenient for me to comment on how to reward them, but it is my duty to ask for credit for the generals of the Southern Expedition, and I have to say my opinion, then I am not welcome!"

So Jiang Wei said what he thought in his heart.

The person who made the greatest contribution to the southern expedition was Zhang Xu, and his Wudang Fei Army was very brave in several battles, and the results were extremely rich, so Jiang Wei proposed that Zhang Xue be the general of Zhennan and lead the Taishou of Guangzhou.

As the leader of the Southern Barbarians, Hua Hu sent the most troops in this southern expedition, and his military achievements were also very rich. Hua Wei's father, Meng Huo, once served as the Emperor of Shu Han, which was actually a fictitious position, and Jiang Wei suggested that Hua Hu be the general of Annan and lead Hepu Taishou.

Guan Yinping's southern expedition made the merit of killing Pan Zhang, and sent back key information at a critical moment to help the Shu army win, but because Guan Yinping was already a princess and could not be sealed, Jiang Wei did not ask for Guan Yinping.

Guan Suo was always the vanguard in the battle of Jiaozhi, opened the door of Jiaozhi, and also captured the two counties of Jiuzhen and Rinan.

Zhuge Zhan's southern expedition also made a lot of contributions, especially the Guangzhou Water Battle, if Zhuge Zhan hadn't used Qimen Dunjia to break the fireboat plan of Eastern Wu, the Han Navy Division would probably be wiped out. Therefore, Jiang Wei suggested that Zhuge Zhan be appointed as a partial general and attack the Marquis of Jue Wuxiang.

Pan Ping, Jiang Wei promised to make him a partial general, so naturally he would not miss it.

Liang Xu accompanied the army to the south, actively active in the battlefield of the southern expedition, and also made a lot of contributions, Jiang Wei asked for him to be a general.

Liang Qian has been operating the Panzhihua Iron Mine and failed to participate in the Southern Expedition, but the Panzhihua Iron Mine is no less meritorious than the Southern Expedition.

The rest of the generals of the Han army who participated in the southern expedition, and the leaders of the various departments of the Southern Barbarians also had their own merits.

After listening to this, Liu Chan nodded frequently, basically agreeing with Jiang Wei's opinion, and in the end, Jiang Wan suddenly asked:

"What is Boyo's opinion on the candidate for the Jiaozhou Assassin History?"
