Chapter Twenty-Six: Return to Beijing

Xiao Jingxuan led everyone back to Wolf's Head Mountain. Under the leadership of Wei Ming, Xiao Jingxuan took a good look at Wolf's Head Mountain.

Seeing that the auxiliaries were in full swing, Xiao Jingxuan nodded with satisfaction.

said to Wei Ming on the side: "It's been a hard time. ”

"It's not hard for the general, it's hard for the town commander to gallop on the battlefield with the soldiers."

"This wolf's head mountain is a nail I planted in the barbarians. If you can manage this nail well, that's a great achievement.

In the future, Wolf Head Mountain will become the bridgehead of the Great Wei in the barbarians, and you will be the vanguard of the Great Wei in attacking the barbarians. ”

Wolf's Head Mountain is not a mountain, but is composed of more than a dozen peaks, and at this time, this place has many barbarian teenagers who have been taken captive.

Xiao Jingxuan looked at these people and said to the left and right: "After I die, I am destined to go to hell, may this heinous crime be returned to me." ”

After speaking, he said to Li Xiaoyun: "When the class teacher is in charge, take the barbarian girl back to Fengzhou City to sell, and then find some people who are good at castration in Fengzhou City, and castrate all the remaining barbarian barbarians." Then he labored in Wolf's Head Mountain.

Wei Ming, you remember, you must not let a living barbarian leave Wolf's Head Mountain, otherwise, you will be a sinner of Great Wei. ”

Li Xiaoyun and Wei Ming should be in unison.

After Xiao Jingxuan stayed in Wolf's Head Mountain for two days, he returned to Fengzhou with the cavalry and some of the captured baggage.

Although the capture this time was very rich, after all, it also lost a lot of cavalry.

At the time of departure, there were almost 23,000 people, and now they have returned, including only about 15,000 wounded.

However, this battle not only caused heavy losses to the Klutai royal tribe and the Zari royal tribe, but also almost swept away dozens of small and medium-sized tribes under the command of the two tribes. The two kings were greatly weakened.

Moreover, Xiao Jingxuan believes that with the continuous fighting under his command, this group of recruits will complete their transformation and become the world-famous elite.

After returning to Fengzhou, Xiao Jingxuan returned to his house, and as soon as he returned home, Yan Shuer came over to remove Xiao Jingxuan's armor, change clothes, and even put the bath water early.

However, after getting along for more than half a year, Xiao Jingxuan is not shy, and his skin has become thicker.

In the face of Yan Shuer's careful care, she was a little at ease.

Time flies, time flies. In a blink of an eye, I came to the autumn of the twentieth year of Jia'an.

Xiao Jingxuan had just returned from the grassland expedition at this time, and after arranging the chores in his hand. Xiao Jingxuan returned to Fuzhong.

thought that after she returned home, Yan Shu'er would take off her armor and wide clothes for herself as usual.

Who knows, Yan Shu'er came over to bring a piece of news. There is a messenger coming from the living room.

Xiao Jingxuan was stunned when he heard the news, but he quickly thought of it. It seems that he is going back to Beijing.

Under Yan Shu'er's service, Xiao Jingxuan bathed and came to the living room slowly in his regular clothes.

As soon as the messenger saw Xiao Jingxuan, he knelt down on one knee, took out a letter from his bosom and handed it out.

"The little one was ordered by the Duke of the Kingdom to send a letter to the son. Please give me a reply after reading it. ”

Xiao Jingxuan took the letter and looked at it.

As expected, my father said in the letter that he was about to return to Beijing to report on his work, and he had to prepare in advance.

After reading the letter, Xiao Jingxuan sighed and said to the messenger: "When you go back, tell your father, and say that I know." ”

After the messenger left, Xiao Jingxuan sat quietly in the living room.

I have been in the northwest for four years, and in the spring of the sixteenth year of Jia'an, I went to the northwest to participate in the war.

sat in the living room for a long time, if Yan Shu'er hadn't prepared the meal and came over to ask Xiao Jingxuan to eat, it is estimated that Xiao Jingxuan would still be reminiscing.

At the dinner table, Xiao Jingxuan looked at Yan Shu'er, who was picking fish bones for herself, and said, "Shu'er, I may have to return to Beijing in a few days, you pack up and go back to Beijing with me." ”

Yan Shu'er was very happy when she heard it, and said, "That's not where you can see your father and mother." ”

Last year, Xiao Jingxuan had officially included Yan Shuer in the room and became his concubine.

Xiao Jingxuan nodded and said with a smile: "Of course." ”

Hearing Xiao Jingxuan's affirmative answer, Yan Shu'er said happily: "Then I'll go to the warehouse to clean up later, and prepare some gifts for my father and mother." ”

"Well, it's good if you're happy."

Xiao Jingxuan is now also a general of Sanpin, no matter how frugal and honest he is. The family's assets are also becoming more and more abundant.

Two years ago, Xiao Jingxuan had only one maid, a porter, and a cook in his family.

However, since she was awarded the third grade and Yan Shu'er arrived, the number of slaves and maids in the family has also increased.

The number has grown from three to sixteen. When I returned to Beijing this time, I had more things to pack.

Two days later, Xiao Jingxuan officially received the holy decree to recall him.

Although, I haven't seen this Supreme of King's Landing. However, it does not prevent Xiao Jingxuan from despising him.

As a dignified emperor, he let the central gate lord be in charge, and the place is also full of heroes. It's really degrading to the identity.

After receiving the decree and entertaining the attendants who came to announce the decree, Xiao Jingxuan asked people to notify the generals in the army and began to explain the affairs.

This time, Xiao Jingxuan nominally returned to Beijing to report on his work, so Xiao Jingxuan asked Wei Ming to stare at Wolf's Head Mountain, and handed over the defense of the city to Lei Ben. The cavalry was temporarily handed over to Li Xiaoyun, and Zheng Qiaoan was in command.

After arranging these things, Xiao Jingxuan took Xu Ce and forty personal soldiers to escort the family to Beijing.

Xiao Jingxuan looked at Fengzhou City, which was gradually moving away, Xiao Jingxuan felt a little emotional, I am afraid that he will not be able to return here for the time being.

Because of his family, it took Xiao Jingxuan a month and a half to return to Beijing.

Xiao Jingxuan is a border general, so after arriving in Beijing, he can't go back to his home, and he needs to face the saint before he can return home.

So, Xiao Jingxuan took Yan Shu'er to live at the post station. After being settled, Xiao Jingxuan went to the palace alone and handed over the sign.

Unfortunately, he was not immediately summoned.

After returning to the post station, Yan Shu'er came over with tea, and after handing the tea to Xiao Jingxuan, she asked, "Xuan Lang, have you seen Your Majesty when you enter the palace?" Can you go home? ”

Xiao Jingxuan shook his head and said, "Not yet, wait for tomorrow morning's court meeting." ”

Yan Shu'er pouted in response.

Seeing Yan Shu'er's appearance, Xiao Jingxuan immediately coaxed: "Don't worry, just wash up and tidy up today, and after the court meeting tomorrow, I will take you to meet your parents." Laugh ......."

……

On the third watch, Yan Shuer came to Xiao Jingxuan's room and changed into an official uniform for Xiao Jingxuan.

Looking at the hard-working Yan Shu'er, Xiao Jingxuan held Yan Shu'er's hand and said, "Shu'er, don't worry, when I go to court, we will return to the Gongfu, and when we officially tell our parents, we will get married." ”

Yan Shu'er blushed and said, "Listen to Xuanlang." ”

Although Xiao Jingxuan included Yan Shuer in the room in Fengzhou, after all, he did not tell his parents. In addition, Xiao Jingxuan has not yet opened a mansion, so the two sides have not had a round house.

After getting dressed neatly, Xiao Jingxuan came to the outside of the palace and waited to participate in the court meeting.

After arriving, I learned that the border general was not qualified to participate in the court meeting, and needed the emperor's approval or summons.

In desperation, Xiao Jingxuan could only wait at the gate of the palace.

Xiao Jingxuan waited from the fourth watch to the dawn, and after hearing the bell, Xiao Jingxuan knew that the great court meeting had begun.

I thought that I would be summoned soon, but who knew that Xiao Jingxuan had been waiting for an hour before he heard the guards shout again: "Xuanfeng Prefecture Lord General Xiao Jingxuan is here, Xuanfeng Prefecture Lord General Xiao Jingxuan is here." ”

I saw that the guards standing guard passed one by one, until they reached the ears of the stewards and eunuchs at the gate of the palace.

Then, the steward eunuch began to check Xiao Jingxuan's official photo and official seal, and then asked people to search Xiao Jingxuan's body.

After completing this, let the little eunuch on the side lead Xiao Jingxuan to see His Majesty.

After coming to the Jinluan Palace, Xiao Jingxuan began to kneel three times and bow nine times, and then shouted three times Long live.

I saw a voice directly above, "Raise your head." ”

Xiao Jingxuan raised his head, but he couldn't look straight ahead, so he could only look down and look at the ground.

"Let's be flat."

"The last general will thank Your Majesty for your grace."

After Xiao Jingxuan finished speaking, he kowtowed respectfully again before he dared to get up.

"Well, the governor of Longzhou, you have made a lot of meritorious contributions in Fengzhou, Hanlin Academy, proposed to pardon Xiao Jingxuan as the general of Zuojin Wuwei, the Marquis of Pingman, and reward a mansion, a thousand taels of gold."

Xiao Jingxuan was stunned, although he had made a lot of contributions, but this reward was too rich.

Hurriedly stepped forward, knelt down and said: "The last general bows to heaven, long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live." ”

"Well, let's get even."

Xiao Jingxuan hurriedly got up and found a position to stand on the side.

Xiao Jingxuan thought that the dust had settled, but who knew that as soon as he stood up, a courtier appeared on the side and said: "Your Majesty, although General Xiao has made meritorious achievements, after all, he is young, I am afraid that he will not be able to take on this important responsibility." ”

Immediately afterwards, another minister stood up, affirming the previous minister's statement.

As the minister finished speaking, the entire court became lively, and many ministers immediately stood up and seconded the proposal.

Some ministers even said: "One has not opened up the territory, and the other has not been protected by the king, and the position of marquis is enough to reward him for his merits and comfort his efforts." ”

Xiao Jingxuan glanced at it quietly and found that the opposing ministers accounted for three-quarters of the entire court, and only a small number of ministers remained silent.

Seeing this situation, Xiao Jingxuan felt a little funny. As one of the guards of the palace, the total number of Zuo Jin Wuwei is not large, and the total number of Jin Wuwei guards is not more than 10,000 people.

Although he occupies the right to guard the palace ban, he is not in his own interest.

Seeing that everyone was opposed, the emperor thought for a while and said, "That's it, Xiao Jingxuan, since you are from Zuo Xiaowei, then I will change you to Zuo Xiaowei's general." ”

After hearing the emperor's words, Xiao Jingxuan hurriedly came out to thank him.

But there were turbulent waves in my heart. As the Supreme of the Ninth Five-Year Plan, Chrysostom said that even if it is wrong, it must be implemented.

However, it is only because the ministers oppose it that they retract their decision, which is so wrong.

Xiao Jingxuan didn't dare to show the slightest dissatisfaction, anyway, he didn't care. It's just the right time to take a break.
