At noon, the soldiers of the Zhongcheng Terracotta Division deployed the entire Zhongcheng Street, lined up in two rows to block the crowd, and cleared the Zhongcheng City Road, leaving not even a single ant on the ground.

The people stood behind them, or went upstairs nearby, wondering who such a battle was going to meet.

Until the well-informed news came to the capital, saying that it was the general of Zhenguo, the people were all surprised and looking forward to it.

"General Zhenguo has been on the border for more than ten years, and this time he can only step into the capital after submitting the surrender letter, which is really not easy!"

"I heard that the military situation is very dangerous this time, and reinforcements have been delayed, but fortunately, a benevolent businessman boss sent money and food in time, otherwise we may not be able to sit here!"

"What a big hero, I need to go and see."

"The general is not young, is he, is he married? My sister is getting married. ”

"I heard that the general is married, doesn't the Marquis of Wuding Mansion have an eldest wife?"

"Nonsense! That's because the general is not in the capital, and he is not close to the Hou Mansion, so everyone calls his second daughter-in-law and eldest daughter-in-law, who has worked hard, and there is no lady yet! ”

"No wonder there are a lot of girls on this floor......"

The sound of horses' hooves came from outside the city gate, from far to near, and the city gate made the city swallow nervously, and ordered the soldiers to open the city gate, and when the purging army appeared, the noise in the capital was silenced.

Qi Ye returned to Beijing this time with 1,300 people, of which 1,000 were outstanding achievements in the battle, and they wanted to return to Beijing to be entitled, and these 1,000 people had to go with him to meet the emperor first, and only after counting them could they go to the military camp stationed a few miles outside the city to settle, and the remaining 300 people were his own soldiers.

After the team entered the capital, all the laughter and laughter stopped, and when the other victorious soldiers returned to Beijing, the people cheered and celebrated, and the girls flew with sachets and handkerchiefs, but before they could speak, they were stunned by the bloody anger of the soldiers.

Each of them is the elite of the Dragon and Tiger Army, and they are the tiger and wolf division who really fought out of the sea of blood in the corpse mountain, and the armor on this group of people is spotless, but this kind of taste is in the bones, and it cannot be washed clean, which makes people fear and admire.

Qi Ye and the third prince Xie Lian are one person and one horse, walking in the front, but their temperaments are diametrically opposite.

Xie Lian was dressed in a white robe like a noble and elegant gentleman, a gentleman and a gentleman, coupled with a good appearance and gentle smiling eyes, countless women looked at it and wanted to throw a sachet.

But the people around him are dressed in armor and cold and unruly, although their eyebrows and eyes are more handsome than the three princes, they are a murderous and obedient appearance.

A bold girl threw a sachet down, and without raising his head, he raised the knife and struck the purse back with precision with the hilt.

Thanks to this group of people, they were full of anger, and they came to the outside of the imperial city without disturbing them all the way, and the emperor and hundreds of civil and military officials were already waiting here.

Qi Ye turned over and dismounted, came to the emperor, and half-knelt to salute, "See my emperor, long live my emperor." ”

Emperor Tianzhi personally helped him up, "Like! General Zhenguo's eyebrows and eyes are very similar to the teacher, I have never seen the last face of the teacher, and I am still heartbroken! But if you have achieved this today, the teacher will definitely be blind underground! ”

The civil and military officials echoed the gossip: "The general of Zhenguo is better than the blue, and Qi Taibao teaches well." ”

"There are successors to the Qi Taibao, Your Majesty is in charge of the Beijing Division, and the general of Zhenguo is stationed on the border, and the Great Qin River is stable."

Emperor Tianzhi waved his hand, "I have already thought about it, General Zhenguo will be awarded General Fengguo!" Title the champion Hou, give the Hou Mansion a mansion, and the fertile land is ......"

The reward that Qi Ye received was really a large amount, and many courtiers were red-eyed after hearing it.

Gonggong Cao handed over the holy decree written in advance to Qi Ye, and Qi Ye took it without changing his face.

"The last general will thank the emperor."

"Come on! Let's go to the palace and say that the rest of the soldiers will have a reward, and when I have asked your generals, I will reward them one by one, and the banquet will be given ten days later, and you will lead them to settle in the military department. ”

Emperor Tianzhi walked in front, and the courtiers surrounded Qi Ye all the way to the outside of the Taiji Palace, and Gonggong Cao stopped him.

"Master Hou, if you enter the hall according to the rules, you must remove your armor."

The little father-in-law stepped forward with the red case, Qi Ye took off his armor one by one, and finally put the saber on it, and was about to leave, when Father-in-law Cao said again:

"General, Tiger Talisman, also need to be returned."

Emperor Tianzhi sat on the dragon chair and looked forward to it, Qi Ye quietly pulled the corners of his mouth and returned the tiger talisman.

Emperor Tianzhi breathed a sigh of relief visibly with the naked eye.

He was willing to let go and call Qi Ye back, for this piece of tiger talisman, but unfortunately after so many years, the Dragon and Tiger Army along Anfu is no longer a cold stone that can be mobilized.

Emperor Tianzhi gave Qi Ye a seat, Qi Ye did not take a seat, he stood in the hall, his back was straight, and his eyes were very cold.

"Your Majesty, at the end of the year, there was a battle with Wara, and the last general sent a hundred letters asking for more grain, and the approval was that the grain and grass were on the way, but the grain and grass were not delivered until the New Year, and there were many rumors about this in the army, and the last general asked the emperor to thoroughly investigate the matter and give the soldiers an explanation."

"I have already understood this matter, it is the responsibility of the grain transport officer, and I have sent someone to lock him up, just waiting for you to come back and deal with it."

"Your Majesty will say bluntly that the matter of transporting grain involves officials from top to bottom, and only one grain transporter dares to delay the delivery of grain and grass, and he really can't convince the public. I don't know which adult is operating in it, and even the emperor dares to deceive you, it's really hateful. ”

Qi Ye bowed his hand, and his voice was loud, "Please ask the emperor to personally investigate this matter thoroughly." ”

The quiet needle drop in the hall could be heard, and many of the courtiers broke out in a cold sweat nervously, only to feel that their eyes were black.

The generals admired Qi Ye very much, and many of them stood up and agreed: "Your Majesty, just ask the general to check!" ”

"The general personally investigates, and it can also quell the rumors in the army."

Emperor Tianzhi's eyebrows jumped wildly, and he thought for a long time, "Then you can check, I will allow you to check." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"These days, the champion Hou will live in the capital first, and I will leave you an errand in the Beijing camp, and then go to the duty when you have rested enough. By the way, your father just returned to Beijing yesterday, and I allowed him to take a three-day break and then go to the military department to be on duty, so that your father and son can go back to catch up. ”

I don't know if it was because Qi Ye was instructed to investigate the case, Emperor Tianzhi was originally interested in wanting to hear about the war situation in Yan'an Mansion, and he also stopped thinking about it at this time.

Qi Ye didn't stay long before leaving the palace, and some of his personal soldiers returned to the mansion given to him by the emperor, and Lu Wen was waiting for him outside the palace.

Seeing him come out, he stepped forward and asked, "General, go to the Lin family or go back to the Marquis of Wuding's mansion?" ”

Lu Wen looked at the red line on his wrist teasingly, and he hurried all the way, but he returned to Beijing half a month faster, for fear that the general would not be able to wait a little.

"Hou Mansion."

Qi Ye turned over and got on the horse, he still had to ask Ji Shu first, whether the Lin family had such a person as Lin Sui.

……

Ji Shu came out of Zhiyunfang and saw that many officers and soldiers were withdrawing one after another, and muttered with a twisted eyebrow: "What's going on...... again?"

There was something wrong with the spinning village's kapok churning car, and she came early in the morning to repair it with Chang Miao, and she was so busy that her feet didn't touch the ground, and she was very tired at this time.

Xi Tao helped her into the carriage and looked at the vendors on the side.

"Slave maid go and inquire."

Ji Shu rolled up the curtain and waved his hand, "Don't go, it shouldn't be fine, come up, I want to go back and rest." ”

The carriage drove smoothly all the way, and suddenly stopped, and remained motionless for a long time.

Ji Shu: "What's going on?" ”

"Madam, I've arrived at the Hou Mansion. But suddenly there are several horses in the way, you wait, the little one goes down and negotiates. ”

Ji Shu looked out from the gap in the curtains on the side, the mansion in front of him was the mansion of the Marquis of Wuding, the mansion on the side was originally vacant, the mansions here are all the residences of officials, many of them were given by the emperor, this vacant mansion suddenly has so many people, it should be given by the emperor.

Since it was a neighborhood, Ji Shu thought about not making trouble, and others couldn't rush to move in.

She pushed Xi Tao: "Call the coachman back, let's get out of the car and enter the house through the corner gate in front." Tell the coachman to wait until they are clean before driving the carriage back. “

"Yes Miss."

Xi Tao went down to talk to the coachman, and when she came back, she picked up Ji Shu, she wore a veil in front of the house, and glanced at the plaque under the eaves.

Champion Hou Mansion.

I don't know which general, this title really has a card.
