Chapter 0279 - Dingxiang

The New Year in the barracks will not be too exquisite, but it will be lively enough.

Everyone cleaned the camp and dried the quilts and clothes. I also simply pasted a pair.

There can't be many tricks to eat, but on Chinese New Year's Eve and the first day of the new year, everyone in the camp has meat to eat.

This year, Su Nancheng and Fei Jiu paid privately, and added some more, so that everyone could share some food.

Wine is not allowed to be touched, even if Fei Jiu wants to drink, he has to go out to drink.

But Su Nancheng asked someone to buy a few sheep, specially boiled soup, bones and meat slices, at least one bowl per person.

With the sound of firecrackers in the city below, the soldiers in the camp celebrated the New Year with joy.

Since the afternoon, there have been big-headed soldiers who have come to kowtow to Sunan Cheng in twos and threes.

Thanks to him for saving his life, more and more later.

After all, it was Lord Su who brought the method of planting pox, so that everyone was saved from death, and the blessing of the adults is worth kneeling.

Inventing a life-saving drug, even in the era of a thousand years later, will be famous for eternity, let alone today?

There are too many diseases to be cured today, but none is more terrible than smallpox, the first of all plagues.

But this smallpox was suppressed by Master Su's methods.

The people in the barracks, even if there is no myth Sunan Cheng, have already revered him as a god.

There is such a feat, which is better than anything else. The soldiers of Xiongshan Pass will always remember him.

It's another year of new weather, and Su Nancheng is also going back to Beijing.

Cheng Ming has also set off, and the two of them will meet in the capital, one due north and the other northeast, so it is inconvenient to wait on the road.

The day Sunan Cheng left, it was the third year of junior high school. Heavy snowfall.

Many small soldiers in the barracks were reluctant to send them far away. There were also some young people who cried.

Fei Jiu looked at him: "Take care all the way, and write a letter when you go back." ”

"Actually, I really want to stay with you, but I have a wife and children in the capital, and I can't let go of my hand. Don't say more, the general takes care. Sunan Cheng clenched his fists.

"Okay, everything is with me, go back in peace." Fei Jiu patted him on the shoulder: "Go back." ”

Su Nancheng took a deep breath and looked at the generals behind Fei Jiu: "You stay and get along in a short time, Nancheng has benefited a lot, you generals take care, there will be a period later." ”

"There will be a date later." The crowd clenched their fists at him.

Sunan Cheng got on the horse, left Xiongguan behind, and went to the road he came.

Doctor Mei and his entourage can't go back for the time being, and they are now in Xiongshan County, instructing the local people on how to plant pox.

Without these doctors, there was nothing to bring, and the way back was not so urgent.

Pass through Yuping Prefecture, cross the Fen River, and go all the way south.

Finally at the end of the first month, on the 28th, I arrived in the capital.

The prince greeted him personally, and Sunan Cheng dismounted and knelt down, but before he knelt down, he was supported by the prince's guards.

"Commander Su has made great achievements this time, and his father specially ordered Lone to come here to greet him, and Commander Su really doesn't need to be polite. I prepared a drink and invited Commander Su to have a drink. "There was a long tent erected outside the city gate, and this time it was not a refugee, but a member of the palace, who carried the imperial wine.

Sunan Cheng drank wine before entering the palace with the crown prince and several officials of the Ministry of Rites.

"Long live Your Majesty, long live, the minister is fortunate not to be dishonored." When Sunan Cheng saw Emperor An, it was naturally a great gift.

"Zhiyu, you have made a great contribution! Since ancient times, smallpox has been a terminal disease, and he has suffered nine deaths, and throughout the ages, what are the consequences of contracting this disease in the military camp. I didn't expect you to be able to prevent this disease. I will reward you, and I will reward you greatly. ”

These words, Emperor An had already said in his letter to Su Nancheng, and now he said it again, which shows that he was indeed sincere at this time.

"The minister doesn't dare, it is within the minister's duty to share his majesty's worries. It is also an ancient book obtained by the minister, but unfortunately the ancient book has been burned. I beg your Majesty to forgive your ministers for their previous sins of not reporting. Sunan Cheng said respectfully.

"You, you, you, you're honest, too honest. You didn't report this prescription to me, but you tried the medicine yourself, regardless of life and death, what could be more convincing than this? Su Qing, don't worry, you only have merit for going out this time, and there is no sin! Andy smiled and personally came to help him get up.

"Pass on my will, give Su Qing a first-class marquis, and wait! Then reward 10,000 taels of gold and 1,000 pieces of silk. Reward Mrs. Xianghou, pearls, gemstones, tortoiseshells, agate heads, and faces. Reward the mother of Xianghou ruby, a set of red agate head and face, and four silk and satin. ”

"Your Majesty!" Su Nancheng knelt down again: "I beg Your Majesty to take back the reward, and the minister will not dare to accept it." If there is merit in what the minister has done this time, it is also His Majesty's trust in the minister, and the indulgence of the minister's trust in the minister, the minister will never dare to ask for such a heavy grace. I beg Your Majesty to take back your order, otherwise the minister will not dare to kneel to death today. ”

Cheng Kanghou and Su Yingqu also knelt down.

"Your Majesty, please also ask Your Majesty to retract your order. Since ancient times, courtiers have been knighted, how dare they use the words "ding" and "town"? Although Nan Cheng has some slight skills, it is also because His Majesty trusts him. He deserves to repay His Majesty's grace with broken bones. Such a heavy reward, the old minister begged His Majesty to take it back. ”

"I beg Your Majesty to take it back." Su Yingqu also followed.

The three generations of important ministers of the Su family knelt down together, don't want such a reward.

The people who watched it were also tsk in their hearts, such a grace smashed in front of them, they could insist on not wanting it, this Su family was really amazing.

An Di frowned and blackened: "No! Last time, I wanted to give him a marquis, but the teacher didn't allow it. This time, I can't listen to you. As for the word 'Dingxiang', it means to stabilize and guard, and Xiang is to help Xiangli. I just want him to stay in the capital, guard my imperial city, guard my palace, so that I can sleep peacefully. ”

"Your Majesty......" Su Nancheng shouted.

The emperor raised his hand: "You have no jokes, these two words must not be changed." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Sunan Cheng had no choice but to thank him.

"Your Majesty, nothing else, now the treasury is short of money. If His Majesty wants to give it, the minister will definitely not be able to come up this time. Su Nancheng said again.

"Hahaha, that's it, if you don't give it to you, it's okay. I've saved. Get up, go back and rest first, and come to the palace in the evening, and I will give you a feast. An Di waved his hand and smiled.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Su Nancheng saluted and got up, and left with the Su family.

Now, he is a first-class marquis, and it is really impossible to bypass the existence of the Su family.

After leaving the palace, he rode in a carriage with his grandfather and father.

"Good boy, you are hiding it to death, using such a deadly method." Su Yingqu was also quite happy.

"Worried my grandfather and father." Su Nancheng's attitude is acquiescence. So as not to be troublesome to explain.

"It's really a risk, if you fail, how are you going to explain? This thing, presumptuous. Cheng Kanghou said.

Times are limited, and they can't know about cowpox.
