Since Yang Jian's defection in southern Xinjiang, Yang Qianxue no longer enters and leaves the inner hall, and the large and small decrees of the court and the central government are no longer in her hands, resulting in Yuwen Shihong being busy in the central government every day.

Yuwen Shihong sent people to search the palace, but there was no trace of Yang Qianxue.

Although I knew that Yang Qianxue was low-key as if she had disappeared in order to avoid suspicion, it had been like this for more than two months in a row, and no one was worried.

This night's triumphal banquet made the huge palace brightly lit.

In addition to the 10,000 forbidden troops who stayed in Guining and Ningzhou, the remaining 40,000 forbidden troops were all listed, happily drinking and eating meat with their colleagues.

Thousands of feasts stretched all over the endless, and the noisy and lively conversations came and went.

After Yuwen Shihong finished dealing with the matter, he hurried over and boarded the Yuntai Pavilion.

Just as he was about to announce the rewards for the soldiers who returned triumphantly, Yang Qianxue, who had been hidden for a long time to avoid suspicion, suddenly appeared quietly.

"Hey, I've searched the palace over and over again, but I can't find any trace of you, why do I have to ......?"

"Your Majesty," without waiting for Yuwen Shihong to finish his words in surprise, Yang Qianxue made a pleading, and said calmly:

"If Your Majesty advocates countering the rebellion, the concubine may also be implicated because of Yang Jian's rebellion."

"I know that Your Majesty not only did not quell the rebellion, but also gave my brother a ...... Instead of awarding Yang Jian the title of King of Lingnan, the concubine doesn't know how to deal with herself in the future. ”

Yuwen Shihong understood her sadness, and relieved her that she didn't have to think about it:

"One person does things and one person is responsible, and my Da Zhou has already abolished the punishment of Zhulian, unless the relatives are suspected of covering up."

"As long as the ministers let their beloved wives never cover up, no one can discredit those who are innocent."

In the past, the old slave Wei Zhong was Yuwen Shihong's side from beginning to end, Yuwen Shihong's conjecture, or the slave's self-determination, made Yang Qianxue think that he arranged to monitor it.

caused Yang Qianxue to be heartbroken.

"If you are disgusted with Wei Zhong's dog slave, you can chase him away, but I don't want to lose my beloved wife, a virtuous helper."

While talking, Yuwen Shihong, in order to ease the atmosphere, complained that in the past two months, he sat in the inner hall all day and night, almost until he had sores and dealt with things day and night, and it was impossible to move an inch.

"After tomorrow morning, I will let my ministers know that my beloved wife is honest and innocent, and it is natural for me to enter the inner hall."

"If there are any more critics, I will issue the crime of defamation, and those who dare to slander others without evidence will be punished as defamation!"

Yuwen Shihong protected Yang Qianxue with a domineering attitude, making Yang Qianxue, who had been worried about the turmoil in southern Xinjiang for a few days, feel uneasy.

After Haosheng comforted Yang Qianxue, Yuwen Shihong stood out of Yuntai Pavilion and faced the forbidden army who were also pompous even though they were eating.

"All the soldiers have recovered Gui and Ningzhou! I am deeply comforted by the peace that I have been worrying about for months, and by your courage! ”

"Special! The soldiers of the southern expedition to quell the rebellion have no distinction between soldiers and lieutenants! All reward money is 300! Ten days of homecoming leave! ”

As soon as the words of reward came out, Yuwen Shihong cheered like a wave in front of him!

After everyone was happy, Yuwen Shihong raised his hand to indicate quietness, and continued to announce:

"In view of the fact that the former Yugoslav Expeditionary Army was deceived by Yang Jian, there are still tens of thousands of colleagues who are stranded in Lingnan and cannot return home for some reason!"

"There will be those who wish to return home!"

"I hope that you will do your best to help those who are stranded in Lingnan and cannot return home."

"Bring one back! Reward 300 gold! ”

Earlier, Yuwen Shihong knew that more than 13,000 of his soldiers who were released through negotiations had only been released, and at least 37,000 had not returned.

At that time, Tang Yong was worried that Yang Jian would mix the dark piles in the middle, so he put the matter on hold for the time being.

But Yuwen Shihong knew that if this matter was not properly resolved, it would be like a sudden disaster for the families of more than 30,000 soldiers.

Yuwen Shihong didn't want to see this scene, but the only way he could think of for the time being was this.

The rest of the ways will have to wait for the right time.

After the speech was finished, Yuwen Shihong ordered Tang Yong to lead several captains and more than 30 captains to come up to Yuntai Pavilion to share the feast with him.

It is a great honor to share the banquet with His Majesty!

"General Tang fought this battle beautifully, not only did not hurt the soldiers of the forbidden army of our Zhou State to the greatest extent, but also successfully recovered Gui and Ning."

"This ingenious strategy deserves a heavy reward!"

Tang Yong's pride was ignited by Yuwen Shihong's words, and he immediately stood up solemnly and saluted to thank Yuwen Shihong for his kindness.

However, Tang Yong, who had long been excited to go to Mobei, suddenly received an order announced by Yuwen Shihong himself:

"The forbidden army is in charge of Jinwu Tang Yong, and since the unification of the army, many battles have ended in great victories, and I fully recognize the courage and good fighting of General Tang."

"Specially, Tang Yong will be transferred to the Wuhou of the Guards, and he will be the supreme commander in charge of the Guards, and the Wuhou Mansion will be placed."

This order came unexpectedly, and when Tang Yong reacted, he didn't know for a while whether this was a bright rise or a secret fall, or if he was reusing him.

Because the Guards only had 20,000 men, but they were the elite of the elite selected from the forbidden army.

But the Guards don't go out of the Beijing Division, how can he, a military general who is good at battlefield battles, be willing to settle down?

Tang Yong, who didn't read much, forgot for a while that when he was in the Qi State, no matter the civil and military officials from all walks of life, they all took being among the central government as their highest pursuit.

even forgot about himself at that time, and thought that being sent to the place was degraded.

"In terms of the restructuring of the military department, some issues must be discussed with General Tang, who has rich experience in actual combat, and the Central Council will also participate."

"But Your Majesty, Yang Shuang is still in Mobei......" Tang Yong finally couldn't help it, and asked Yang Shuang openly.

"What, you still want to go to Mobei?" Yuwen Shihong smiled:

"This time in southern Xinjiang, with two major artifacts complementing each other, how do you feel about the actual battle?"

When it comes to the artifact, Tang Yong is almost floating:

"Your Majesty! Under the Attack! There were not a single casualty in our army! And the enemy suffered heavy losses! ”

"In this case, General Tang should stay in Beijing, compile the actual combat strategy into a book, and cultivate more talents of generals for my big week."

"So that's what Your Majesty thinks......"

Tang Yong, who finally understood Yuwen Shihong's deep meaning, immediately didn't say anything, only thanksgiving!

……

The triumphal banquet lasted all night, and half of the soldiers took advantage of the fact that they didn't have to weigh the pounds and two hu to eat and drink, and almost all of them ate and drank until they were drunk and lay on the table.

However, there are still some of them who are preoccupied, with big fish and meat in front of them, but they have no intention of eating and drinking.

Xu Geng, who was originally a soldier of Luozhou Mansion of Qi State, thought that continuing to join the army would make his small family and small life more and more prosperous.

Clinker thought that Xu Geng, who was just temporarily going to southern Xinjiang to perform military affairs, coincidentally became a member of the rebel army after Yang Jian's rebellion.

He was also one of the more than ten soldiers who came to Beijing to spread urgent reports.

On the eve of Tang Yong's official declaration of war on Yang Jian, Xu Geng was one of the second group of people who decided to sneak out of Lingnan and come to Chang'an to deliver information.

It's just that he didn't expect that as soon as he walked on the front foot, Tang Yong would start a war on the back foot.

For him, he was lucky, but his comrades were still in the city and did not come out.
