Chapter 8 What Reward Do You Want?

"Lord Qin, I just got the news that the Second Prince of Libei is now in the You Mansion, should we..."

In a Qin Mansion study, a guard knelt down and told the middle-aged man who was reading a book to report the information, and when he saw that the man shook his head, he left the room with interest.

……

"General, General, General..."

The streets of the south gate of Shangjing City are full of ordinary people in the city, who are cheering for the triumphant return of the Nanzhao God of War.

"Boy, come here!"

When You Qingyun was about to walk through the crowd and come to You Tianming's team, You Tianming instead shouted at him first, You Qingyun looked at his serious expression and suddenly felt a little stunned, but he still walked over with his head stiff, looked up at You Tianming with a smile and said:

"Dad, welcome home, big brother and I miss you."

"You miss me?"

You Tianming looked at You Qingyun with a look of disbelief, so that he quickly changed the topic.

"Dad, that person is still in the house."

"Well, Xuan Jiu told me, you take Li Duwei to pick him up, and then go to see the saint together, if the saint wants to give you the title of official, remember to excuse and design."

After You Tianming finished speaking in his ear, he looked at Li Duwei, and then knowingly set up a carriage and followed You Qingyun towards You Mansion.

"Uncle Li, do you know what the force is in this ambush?"

"I don't know, the tricks are mixed, I can't see it, I'm masked, this time it's fortunate that you brought people back to Shangjing, otherwise the crime of protecting the prince of the north will fall on us."

You Qingyun and Li Duwei sat in the carriage, and the two of them tried to sort out the background of the man in black this time, but they didn't get any information, which made their eyebrows tighten.

Immediately, You Qingyun said to Li Duwei with a firm look in his eyes:

"Uncle Li, I'm afraid that You Mansion won't be able to calm down in the future, you must find out, it's easy to dodge open guns and difficult to defend against hidden arrows, if anyone dares to hurt my relatives, no matter who it is, they will also be killed."

"Haha, good boy, grown up. Don't worry, the general will arrange this, just make your father angry. ”

Li Duwei listened to this as if his nephew was saying, patted him on the shoulder, and laughed with satisfaction.

After a while, the two got off the gorgeous carriage at the gate of You Mansion, You Qingyun walked directly towards his courtyard with Li Duwei, and saw You Tianming walking towards them in the marble corridor in the middle of the flowers.

"Big brother, where is my mother?"

"Hello Uncle Li, my mother just heard that my father came back safely, so I rested and rested."

You Tianming saw that it was You Tianming's subordinates, and naturally he was also his elder, so he hurriedly ran over, bowed politely, Li Duwei often followed the general You Tianming to You Mansion, and the feelings were familiar, You Qingyun told the eldest brother what they were doing, and asked him to take care of his mother at home, and then walked straight into his yard.

"Here we are..."

"I've seen the second son, and please follow the last general to meet the saint with the general."

As soon as he walked into the courtyard, he saw Xie Feng leisurely making tea, You Qingyun stepped forward distressedly and looked at him with a reluctant face:

"This is the Junshan silver needle I bought at a great price, and in just a moment, you drank half a pack?"

Xie Feng didn't seem to see You Qingyun's distressed expression, and when he picked up the teacup and drank it, he got up and walked out of the courtyard, and said softly:

"The son of a dignified general, don't be so stingy."

After finishing speaking, he quickened his pace and walked towards Li Duwei, but because of the speed, he actually fell out of his arms with two small bags of tea that had been hidden for a long time, and he didn't pick it up, maybe he was deliberately angry with him, or maybe he was afraid that You Qingyun would be angry and beat him, Li Duwei saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly walked in front of You Qingyun and patted him on the shoulder:

"No, no, Uncle will give you a few more packs next time! Get down to business first. ”

Hearing this, You Qingyun slowly regained his composure, followed out of the gate of You Mansion and the three of them got into the carriage, and gathered towards You Tianming's team, Li Duwei sat in the middle, and the two of them sat on one side, as if they were angry, no one looked at anyone, and he could only mutter, young man.

Nanzhao Imperial Palace is located in the center of the entire Shangjing City, covering an area of one-third of the entire city, after a while, caught up with the team to come to the palace gate, You Qingyun looked up at the red ancient city wall standing on the ground, strong and square, towering, giving people a sense of solidity and awe-inspiring and difficult to offend. Two rows of guards in yellow armor stood on both sides of the gate, and at this time, a eunuch standing in front of You Tianming's team, saw the general, and hurriedly bowed and saluted:

"The old slave has seen the general, Your Majesty asked me to wait for the general here, so that the little prince and the prince of Libei can meet together."

"There's a boss."

"The general has tormented the old slave, please..."

You Qingyun stood behind Xie Feng and walked on the spacious ancient road paved with brown floor tiles, looking at the surrounding Forbidden City walls inside the city wall, and there was an exquisitely structured corner tower at each corner of the city wall. The play says that there are four gates in the palace city, there is a noon gate in the south, which is the main gate of the Forbidden City, and there are more than 9,000 palaces, all of which are wooden structures, yellow glazed tile roofs, blue and white stone bases, decorated with brilliant color paintings. These palaces are arranged along a north-south central axis, and spread out to both sides, straight from north to south, symmetrical left and right, if you are not familiar with it, you will definitely get lost in the palace.

A group of people walked along the corridor of Qingbaishi with the eunuch, and there were rows of solemn and upright imperial forest troops standing in the wide inner city, and they only saw the three big characters of the Taihe Hall after walking for nearly a stick of incense, which was also the place where the emperor and the ministers went to the court to discuss matters. In front of the wide hall door, a real dragon from the bottom to the top is carved in the middle of the white huge stone steps, and there are two inner and outer steps on both sides, the ministers can only walk the outermost side, and only the emperor and queen can take the inner stairs, which is very exquisite.

You Qingyun followed the eunuch up the outermost steps, and then stood outside the hall waiting for the announcement, not long after the eunuch entered the hall, a long, loud and small voice came from inside.

"General Xuanda, Xie Feng, the second prince of the North, You Qingyun and the others are respectfully seen..."

After You Tianming and his party heard Xuanjian's voice, they simply tidied up their clothes, then looked at You Qingyun, and gave him a look, You Qingyun nodded, and the group slowly crossed the door of the hall with You Tianming as the leader, and walked into the main hall with their heads down. The main hall is gorgeously decorated with a majesty, the top of the load-bearing eaves hall, the 3-layer white marble steps are sitting, the golden dragon and the seal color painting are used, there are as many as 11 immortals and beasts on the roof, 11 rooms, walking on the black granite of the floor with carved patterns, You Qingyun tried to retract his eyes and suppressed the whimsical thoughts in his heart.

It's so rich!

You Tianming walked in the front, about a hundred steps away from the emperor, and the group all bowed down and bowed with their legs, and said loudly:

"Weichen You Tianming, Xie Feng, You Qingyun, Li Yun, Xu Dakai, see Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live long live."

"Flat..."

After You Tianming and his party finished kneeling and bowing, a gentle and majestic voice came, You Qingyun raised his head at this time and saw the emperor sitting on the dragon chair, with god-like majesty and innate nobility, the whole person emitted a kind of king of the world, wearing a purple and gold crown with a bundle of hair on his head, and the two dragons grabbing pearls and gold wiping his forehead, and the bright yellow robe was embroidered with the pattern of the dragon of the sea, at this time the emperor was looking at You Tianming and his party standing in the court with a smile.

"Having a general here is a blessing for my Nanzhao."

After smiling, he glanced at the chief eunuch standing next to him, and the eunuch nodded to the emperor with understanding, and then stepped forward, took out a holy decree from his sleeve, and read:

"The great victory of the northern army of the expedition, I decided to celebrate the whole world for three days, all the generals were promoted to two levels, the general was awarded the title of Yongguan Marquis, and his wife Xiao Yuelan was awarded the title of Mrs. Yipin, Qin this."

After the eunuch finished reading the content of the holy decree, he returned to the same place, standing beside the emperor, and the civil and military officials in the court all whispered to the middle of the Yongguan Marquis, among which the military generals were the worst, because the military general's status in the court was slightly lower than that of the civil officials, so the status of the generals rose, and they naturally increased their status in the court.

"You Aiqing, I heard that you are not calm when you come back this time! What news can be found, a group of bold people dared to ambush my general at the feet of the Son of Heaven. ”

Sitting on the dragon chair, the Son of Heaven, who was smiling kindly just now, suddenly seemed like a storm, and the Son of Heaven was angry and ambushed millions of corpses, and even felt a chill like a tide permeating the entire hall. Then he regained his composure, glanced at the civil service, and said:

"Leng Du Yi, the secretary of the Criminal Department, is the main one, and Yin Chen Wenyuan of the Jingzhao Mansion is the deputy, so I want you to find out about this matter as soon as possible and give me an explanation to the general. In addition, Fan Yu of Honglu Temple entertained the second prince from the north for me, if there is a bad pool, only you ask. ”

Jingzhao Mansion Yin is the parent official of the entire Shangjing City, equivalent to the head of a county and the prefect of a continent, and the Criminal Department is the highest body in charge of the laws of Shangjing, so it is naturally their dereliction of duty to have this kind of thing at the feet of the Son of Heaven. Sanpin Leng Du Yi and Sipin Chen Wenyuan, two big people, usually a big man who stomped his feet on Kyoto to tremble three times, was trembling out of the team at this time, and came to kneel in the center to receive the order.

"You Qingyun..."

"The grass people are in..."

The emperor suddenly shouted his name, and immediately hurriedly walked out of the ranks of military generals, bowed and saluted in response, although he was the son of a general, but he did not have any official position, so he could only call himself a grass people.

"I heard that this time it was you who met the accomplice of the man in black in Tianyang Mountain to rescue the second prince of Libei?"

"Back to the emperor, it was the grass people who met the blind cat..., everything is the emperor's blessing."

After listening to You Qingyun's words, the emperor suddenly became happy, as if he was interested in him, and then asked You Qingyun:

"This time, the second prince of Libei can be safe and sound, naturally you have your credit, say, what do you want? Why don't I seal you as a captain of the sixth-rank Zhaowu school? ”

You Qingyun recalled what his father told him, don't go to the court to be an official, although he didn't understand, he still said it. But You Qingyun also knew the reward that the emperor said, so you had to continue, otherwise it would damage the emperor's majesty, and then he spoke again.

"Your Majesty, the grass people are the subjects of the Son of Heaven, and they should all do it, and they dare not ask for rewards. If the emperor wants to reward, the grass people want some antique jade, gold and silver. ”

"Fun, fun, fun!"

After hearing this, the emperor laughed and said three words in succession.
