Chapter 176: Glory

In the council hall of the Jiedu Embassy Office, Li Yuan led a group of civil and military officers to bow their hands, and then lined up on both sides to make way for a passage, Zheng Wang Li Congjia led Zhou Xingfeng and Zhang Zi to stride in, and the forbidden army behind him was also closely guarded, and followed the three people to the hall under the plaque and then stopped and scattered.

"Your Majesty's decree! The Wuping Army made Li Yuan and the following civil and military officials receive the order! Li Congjia straightened up and walked to the center of the hall, the corners of his mouth slightly hooked, and he raised the brocade box and shouted.

Extreme Soul Chaos

Li Yuan resolutely led the civil and military officials to bow down in unison, shouting long live Your Majesty, and quietly waiting for the proclamation.

I saw Li Congjia bowing down to the east and blessing him, and then he opened the brocade box, took out the holy decree and slowly unfolded it, and began to read aloud the edict written by Xu Xuan, the right minister of the Southern Tang Dynasty: "Under the door, the foundation of the world." Alack! Haotian has a fate, and the emperor accepts it. I heard that in ancient times, the holy king ruled the world by relying on virtuous ministers and good generals, Zhou, summoned to surrender, and there were Yan Ying, Baili Xi, and Sun Shuao; Han has Xiao He, Cao Shen, and Zhou Bo continued. The ministers are upright, the loyal are the kings, and the world is governed!

However, I brushed my clothes in the year of dancing elephants, drew my sword in the land of cutting snakes, thought of the national dynasty, and worried about Zhou County. The land of Hunan, inheriting the country's lineage, is particularly important, and I am very important.

Today, there is Li Yuan, the general of the Wuping Army Festival and the right Qianniuwei of the Taishi of the inspection school, who led the Tang Dynasty soldiers and the town of thousands of miles, was born with self-morality, was familiar with military affairs, and served the king with sincerity; Suppressing the rebellion, An Liyuan, resisting the barbarians, and causing great trouble.

I heard that Xin Li Weihuo's general, Xianfen Tuyu; The material of the temple of the gentleman's corridor is hung with ribbons. He was appointed as the governor of Li Yuanlang Prefecture, served as the envoy of the Wuping Army, set up military forces such as Wu'an and Jingjiang, and awarded the rank of general of Huaihua, the rank of servant, and the household military honor. The reward is 100,000 yuan, and the silk is 100 horses......"

This large list of rewards and titles, from official positions to money and silk rewards, is all-encompassing, especially the gorgeous and majestic writing in the edict, which exaggerates the glory and dignity of Li Yuan's local festival envoys, and even the ancient sages and famous generals have been brought out for comparison......

Looking at the entire Southern Tang Dynasty, there were only more than ten envoys in total, and the Wuping Army was actually a smaller one in terms of law, after all, there were only two states. Leaving aside the two towns of Wu'an and Jingjiang, which have fallen, Wuping is the only festival town that is now in the midst of war, and in this difficult situation, it seems understandable that the emperor will reward him with incentives.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Li Yuan's heart was naturally irrepressibly excited, but he secretly felt funny, after all, it was only ten days since the last edict was received in Xizhou, and from the words in this edict now, it can be inferred that these two edicts must have been issued on the front and back feet, and the latter seemed to be Emperor Li Jing forgot something, so he hurriedly made up for it to calm the army's heart.

In the end, Li Yuan now nominally has the military power to control the entire Chu land, what Huaihua general, Shizhong, Shanghu army and the like, including the post of inspector Taishi given last time, are all fictitious positions, and there is no need to care about them at all, and those who are added are not as good as the 100,000 yuan according to the various superposition and offset algorithms of Tang Law.

As for the title of Metropolitan Governor of Langzhou, it is very precious, after all, the title of Metropolitan Governor was rarely established in the Southern Tang Dynasty, and almost all of them were specially set up during the Great War, mainly to facilitate military commanders, who could justifiably interfere in local government affairs in order to mobilize all their forces to resist external enemies and internal troubles.

In this way, not only the military power, but also the civil affairs of Chu and Di were officially under Li Yuan's control, so Li Yuan was a little confused. Since the last time he returned to Jinling, he and his relatives and friends beside him have been implying that Emperor Li Jing has been jealous, and many actions of the imperial court have also proved it, but why is this will so unusually generous?

As the saying goes, the emperor's mind is unfathomable, and it is true......

"Honor guard, the capital governor seal!" Li Congjia shouted expressionlessly.

Zhou Xingfeng slowly stepped forward and handed over the tray in his hand, Li Congjia took the boxy thing wrapped in red silk on the plate again, and solemnly handed it to Li Yuan, and his eyes did not forget to glance at this young and handsome face. It goes without saying that this is the great seal of the heavy governor of Langzhou, and it is also a symbol of the supreme power of Chu from now on.

Then he began to hand over the honor guard, although Li Yuanjian had an experience half a year ago, but at that time, as the new envoy of the Southern Tang Dynasty, he was called "Jingjie", and he was rewarded with a special reward, and the festival was killed by a special one. The festival degree is higher than the history of the thorn, holding the double double knot, in fact, it is a delicate festival made of copper leaves, as a token of the emperor's grant to the local festival envoy.

In addition, there are two door flags, a dragon and tiger flag, two dragon head spears, and two leopard tail spears, which are called honor guards. After becoming a festival envoy, the line is built and the tree is six. Everywhere he went, the guard of honor was dignified and murderous.

This is the glory and majesty that has been inherited since the Tang Dynasty and is exclusive to the festival.

The honor guard of the Metropolitan Governor is similar to the honor guard of the Jiedu Envoy, except that there is a black dragon flag representing the will of the Son of Heaven, and Li Yuan is very serious to receive these gifts that symbolize the emperor's kindness one by one, and every time he receives it, he shouts thanks in his mouth once. Xu is the excitement of the last Jianjie has been swept away, but at this time, his heart is like water.

Due to the complicated etiquette, all the civil and military officials present had to wait quietly, silently watching Li Yuan receive the order and receive the seal, and receive the honor guard and other things. Thinking that this Li Yuan is only twenty-one years old, he is deeply favored by His Majesty, as the youngest festival envoy since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, even if he is more powerful after that, how can he not be envious?

However, the facts tell them that whether they are envious or jealous, they have to be convinced by this young handsome. Speaking of military capabilities alone, how many miraculous feats have been made in just half a year? Recently, he has swept his army to the land of Dongxi, which even the kings of Chu have feared, and incorporated all the three states of Dongxi into the territory of the Tang Dynasty. Who dares to doubt that Li Yuan does not have the ability to defend one side and protect the tranquility of the border of the Tang Dynasty?

The edict has not yet been read, and after the reward for Li Yuan, the commander, is completed, it is naturally the turn of the generals of Wuping.

Since Li Yuanjian's festival in March, there has been a long list of major generals who have been reported one after another for half a year, and most of them have been rewarded slightly higher than their own positions.

“…… Wuping soldiers and horses made Liu Jiangsheng, rewarded 20,000 yuan, and added the rank of Zhongwu general. Luo Erhu, the deputy envoy of Wuping's soldiers and horses, rewarded 20,000 yuan and added the rank of general of Zhuangwu...... Wuping Festival is long history Xu Kuangheng, with a reward of 20,000 yuan, plus a general doctor.

The commander of the Wuping infantry army made Fan Renyu, rewarded 10,000 yuan, and added the rank of general Xuanwei. Wuping Ma Jun commanded Chai Kewu, rewarded 10,000 yuan, and added the rank of general. Wu Ping personally commanded Lin Sichang, rewarded 10,000 yuan, and added the rank of general to Dingyuan. Wu Ping personally served as the deputy commander of the army, made the ebony special service, rewarded 10,000 yuan, and the rank of general of Jianingyuan.

Add...... Add...... Add ......"

After reading a large list of rewards, almost all of the Wuping generals under Li Yuan were rewarded, and in addition to Xu Kuangheng, two or three more people were unexpectedly rewarded.

Although the highest grade of the seal is no more than the fourth grade, everyone is satisfied, and their mouths are full of flowers, and there is a title such as a certain general on the top, not to mention the glory of the ancestors, and the waist will be much straighter in the future.

Finally, the edict was read. It is estimated that since Li Congjia was born, in addition to reading and reciting poetry, he has never read so many words in one breath, and his mouth has long been dry.

At this time, the mission was completed, and Li Congjia smiled at Li Yuan and said, "Congratulations to this king!" The father and emperor are so generous to the town of Wuping, it is rare to protect the first year of the year, this is really the emperor's grace! ”

Li Yuan bowed his hand and saluted steadily: "What His Highness said is true!" Your Majesty's great kindness, there is no way to repay it, only to do your best and serve loyally! Your Highness has worked hard, please sit down and drink tea! I still have to go to the labor army this afternoon, don't be tired, Your Highness! Zhou Tingshi and Zhang Sheren, please also sit down! ”
