Chapter 59: The Great Pilgrimage in the Moon

On the fifteenth day of the winter month, the big court meeting in the middle of the month.

Accompanied by the performance of "Dan Majesty's Great Music", the civil and military officials were divided into left and right court classes and entered Fengtianmen.

Walking to the front of the Imperial Palace, the civil and military officials stopped at the foot of the steps, waiting for the arrival of the Son of Heaven.

Three net whips sounded, and the hundred officials sorted out their clothes for the last time, and the Son of Heaven came.

The emperor went out of the palace, and ten Han generals held ritual weapons and lined up left and right.

The teaching workshop division composed the music of Zhonghe Shao, and the musician conducted the music, and the musical instruments used were bells and drums, qins, xun, chimes, flutes, pipes, flutes, stone chimes, and squeezes, etc., which were played in front of the Fengtian Gate.

The emperor entered the Dan Majesty, and the civil and military officials bowed to each other, and after the ceremony, they made the Qingping chapter and the peace chapter of the Dan Majesty's great happiness.

The music faded away, and the pilgrimage began.

No one came out to do something, after all, everyone knows that the protagonists of this great court meeting are the generals of the Northern Expedition, and if there is really anything, they will not say anything here, and they will enter the palace in the afternoon to hand over the sign.

The four veteran commanders of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies and the Grand Sima of the Military Department took the lead in reporting on the situation of the Northern Expedition.

There was an old handsome man who was completely out of shape, and soon after the army set off half a year ago, he returned to his hometown to raise his bones.

After the report on the Northern Expedition was completed, the reward began.

Yun Yu added a pillar country, and the title was inherited for a generation.

Although Yun Yu is the nominal boss, the battles are all fought by Jia Hui, everyone knows it, Yun Yu himself has no opinion, he has won a generation of titles for nothing, and it is too late to be happy.

Because the Northern Expedition was fought by Jia Hui to destroy the country, everyone's reward was much richer than that of the Northern Expedition in previous years.

The emperor did not reward Jia Hui first, but the descendants of the first seal.

The infantry army commanded Xie Yong to be promoted to the county prince, Li Cang, Lin Jin and other county marquis were promoted to the county marquis, and Youda and Luda also won the county uncle.

Jia Hui's direct three thousand households, Yang Zhi, Guan Sheng and Lin Chong, the corresponding honors have also been promoted to the five products that a thousand households should have, and even gave the three of them an additional county baron's title, and the three of them were grateful.

It's not easy, they're all in their thirties, and they're still dangling on the nine grades, if it weren't for the general Jia Hui who discovered the three of them, if they want to mix to such glory now, they have to go to the Year of the Monkey and the Horse Moon?

After the last person was rewarded, only Jia Hui was left, and the civil and military officials knew that the highlight was coming.

"The three thousand battalions are all in command, General Sima, Hou Jiahui of Wuwei County, come forward to listen to the seal!"

"Minister Jia Hui greets Your Majesty!"

After Xia Shouzhong waited for Jia Hui to finish his salute, he began to read the holy decree.

"I said: I only rule the world with literature, and fight chaos with force.

…………

Zite awarded the title of Shangzhu State, the Duke of Dunhuang County, awarded the Guanglu Doctor, and the Governor of the Left Army of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies. The tin is destined to be in the play, and the power is vibrant. Deeply attached to the Jun Lie of Yuan Rong, Gong Xuan Huaxia, smoked with Zhaolu cloth, temporarily Xi Wusheng, plus Pi Ji, Qinzai. ”

The Governor of the Left Army of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies!

Although the 100th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, a large part of the power of the Governor's Office of the Five Armies was transferred to the Ministry of War, and the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies itself is more like a place for the commanders to brag and fart.

However, the Metropolitan Governors still have the right to manage the Beijing camp and the local guards, as well as the choice of the generals of the border towns and guards, and the personnel lists and generals of the hidden troops are also kept in the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion.

Most importantly, the Governor's Office has always retained the right to draw up a general battle plan.

Any decision of the Ministry of War will not be submitted to His Majesty until it is approved by the Governor's Office of the Five Armies.

Similarly, the battle plan set by the Governor's Office of the Five Armed Forces also requires the deployment and support of the Ministry of War, and the two sides clamp each other down.

Even so, entering the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies is still the number one goal of the warriors of the Great Qi, and the Governor's Mansion has become a holy place second only to the Martial Temple.

"Ministers, ministers must do their best for Daqi, and their liver and brains will be smeared!"

Jia Hui bowed down and was about to get up, but was stopped by the emperor.

"Jinyu don't go back to work for the time being, the emperor still has a reward! Factory? ”

After the emperor finished speaking, he looked at Dai Quan.

Hiss –

Hearing that the emperor also had a reward, it caused hundreds of civil and military officials to gasp, and everyone's eyes were focused on Dai Quan.

Dai Quan saluted the emperor first, and then stepped forward to face Jia Hui.

"The emperor has a decree to give the general the Suzaku military flag! And give the Vermilion Bird Pattern to the general to use! ”

"Huh?" Jia Hui was stunned in place, and didn't react for a while.

Dai Quan saw Jia Hui stunned there, understood, and hurriedly said:

"General, let's get the order first!"

"Ah, thank you, the Emperor!"

Book that!

Jia Hui's reward was simply envious of the hundred officials, but because Jia Hui had become the governor of the left army, he held his own power of life and death, and he could continue to climb up through conquest, so he killed this thought.

But some civil servants are different.

They are simply crazy with jealousy of the promotion speed of military generals, especially the promotion speed of military generals in wartime!

The old man has studied hard for decades, and only entered the career at the age of thirty or forty, and after countless hardships and arrows, he has to work hard to be promoted, especially when it comes to the fifth and third grades, and he has survived countless years in the same department before one or two people can step into the high grade.

Why are you only eighteen years old, and you can't be a grandson before you dry up, you can easily become a duke of the dynasty at such an age!

And the emperor even gave the military flag and embroidery separately!

Just as he wanted to stand up and persuade the emperor, saying that Jia Hui was too young to be rewarded like this, he felt a cold gaze coming from the martial arts class, and even mixed with some inexplicable encouragement?

Looking at the past, it was actually the eyes of the generals of his own faction.

Instantly understood, this group of people came to their senses and broke out in a cold sweat!

His mother! These martial artists are uneasy and kind, and they want the old man to be the first bird!

If you go out of class to dissuade yourself, I'm afraid that these people will be the first to put on their own sacks, right?

Forget it, since this is the emperor's decision, then there must be his own considerations, so let's do it!

It didn't take long for Jia Hui to change into the duke's court clothes.

Eight Liang cage scarf crown, because it is a county duke, only the crown forehead is equipped with jade cicadas, if it is a national prince, there is also one after the crown.

Dressed in Qingyuan Chiluo clothes, Qingyuan Chiluo clothes, with a jade belt around his waist, and an ivory wat board in his hand, he stood back to the court.

After another series of dance and music performances, a feast was given at noon and the group dispersed.

Walking on the Jinshui Bridge, Jia Yu pulled Jia Hui, who was cramped, with a red face, to accept the congratulations of the old relatives.

Although the actual reward of the second saint is a little different from what Chen Si said, it must be the final plan after the modification in the past two days, which thickened Jia Hui's reward, but still restored the position of Earl Jia Yu!

Known as Rongbo!

Jia Hui smiled stiffly as he responded to the words of the old relatives.

If he could, he would rather fight another Northern Expedition!

Just when Jia Hui was so annoyed that he wanted to jump into the Jinshui River, a little eunuch came to save him.

"Grandpa Jia, the emperor summoned you to Xiyuan to reply!"

One sentence made Jia Hui's heart flutter, and he could finally get rid of them.

"Uncles, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, the emperor summoned me over, tomorrow, tomorrow, I will come to the house to drink!"

Everyone hurriedly separated, letting Jia Hui walk over, looking at Jia Hui in the duke's court clothes, a group of people showed envious eyes.

"Brother Enhou, you are so blessed, Brother Hun'er has won the county duke, and your brother has also recovered to the earl, it must not be long before Rongguo Mansion is going to have another double duke!!"

"Hahaha, where, exaggerated, exaggerated, the dog still has a lot of shortcomings, and he still needs the help of his relatives! Hahaha! ”

Jia Yu replied with a laugh, but his eyes looked at Jia Hui for a long time and couldn't come back to his senses, that red robe, finally came to the Jia family again, father, presumably you who are in the netherworld can also smile at Jiuquan!

。。。。。。

"I don't understand why I gave you the flag and ornaments? You know, this is the only one in the Great Qi Army, and even the rest of the old guys don't have this glory! ”

The emperor was lying on his side on the couch and studying the "Huang Ting Jing", his hair scattered.

Since learning the news that the former Yuan has been destroyed, the old man's temper has improved a lot, he has not scolded the emperor for almost half a month, and he is usually willing to go to the school to ride a horse and shoot arrows.

Now lying on the couch and watching the Taoist scriptures is endless, and it is visibly mellow with the naked eye.

"It's... I don't know. ”

Why is this emperor more and more similar to Jiajing Old Immortal?

Jia Hui, who was leaning over and standing in front of the couch, slandered in his heart.

"Because ......"

The emperor hung Jia Hui's appetite and held up a long voice.

Jia Hui stretched his head forward.

"Why?"

"Because...... Lao Tzu is willing. ”

Jia Hui froze instantly.

"Haha, I gave you the military flag, mainly because I wanted to give it to your grandfather a few years ago, but I forgot about it."

The Emperor said confidently.

“……”

Jia Hui was speechless.

"Hehe, I only remembered it when I gave you a reward two days ago, your Jia family is currently serving in the army alone, so I will simply give it to you, in the future, you can use the Vermilion Bird Pattern, and your house, I also ordered it to be modified."

The emperor straightened up, closed the "Huang Ting Jing", and placed it next to the pillow.

"It stands to reason that you haven't reached the point where you have the military flag alone, and this can be regarded as the shadow that your grandfather gave you, while I am still clear-headed, remember this matter, so ah, boy, cherish it."

After the emperor finished speaking, he glanced at Dai Quan, and Dai Quan bowed and retreated.

"Speaking of which, Yang Wenjin of Anxi paid tribute to me a Hu Le team, knowing that you kid is also versatile, come, give it to you, can you play?"

Dai Quan came over with a team of Hu Le and took a five-stringed piano that looked like a gourd, which seemed to be called Qopuz? A Uighur instrument of roughly the same origin as the lute.

This......

That's it, the emperor is old, and it stands to reason that the dignified general played Hu music in front of the emperor and let the officials outside know, and he must be impeached fiercely, saying that it violated the etiquette system.

But the atmosphere of Daqi is here, love opera, love music, love to show others their performance skills, maybe the old Confucians outside will think this is an elegant thing.

Forget it, just care for the elderly!

"I know, it's just that Rong Chen changed his clothes, and it didn't seem like this in court clothes."

The emperor waved his hand, Jia Hui retreated to the side hall, changed the dark red narrow-sleeved round collar embroidered with vermilion birds that the emperor had prepared a long time ago, and returned to the emperor.

Jia Hui tried the strings and tuned the tune.

"The minister hasn't played it for a long time, the emperor forgive me."

Jia Hui said as he plucked the strings lightly, thinking about what to play in his mind.

Pregnant!

"Uighur, Yamghur, Tears of the Clouds..."

The hand that plucked the strings lightly increased its strength, and in an instant, the Gobi, the grassland, the camel, the bell, the mountain, the horse and the monk appeared in front of them, and the people in the hall closed their eyes in unison.

"The white clouds roll with thunder,

Will it bring heavy snow to the Quartet?

My gray-haired mother,

Is it because of sadness that tears are shed? ”

A Uighur pronunciation came out of Jia Hui's mouth, and although he couldn't understand what he was saying, the emperor seemed to have a wandering shepherd in his mind, thinking of his hometown and relatives...

The musicians from the Western Regions on the side heard the familiar tune, glanced at this burly Han nobleman in surprise, looked at each other, raised the instruments in their hands together, and played for Jia Hui...

"The white clouds roll with thunder,

Will it bring heavy snow to the Quartet?

My gray-haired mother,

Is it because of grief that weeps..."

The singing voice slowly became depressed, like the wanderer's heart, the accumulated thoughts.

The musicians behind him also sang along.

"Dark clouds and thunder,

Is it going to rain and snow?

My old mother,

Is it because of the tears of grief? ”

After singing a paragraph, Jia Hui lowered his head and concentrated on playing the piano, and the musicians behind him reduced the sound of their instruments and highlighted Jia Hui's piano sound.

After a solo performance, Jia Hui turned sideways and looked behind him, the musicians realized and their voices increased.

"The clouds and lightning of summer thunder and thunder,

Is there going to be a shower?

O wife of youth,

Are they going to shed tears? ”

Jia Hui lowered his head again and concentrated on plucking the strings.

Outside the hall, the emperor, who routinely came to Xiyuan to hand in his homework, heard the music of the Western Regions and the deep singing voice from the Yingtai from a distance, but the singing voice was somewhat familiar?

The emperor was a little puzzled, and hurriedly quickened his pace, and did not enter the hall, but leaned sideways against the door and looked into the door.

He wouldn't dare disturb his father while he was enjoying music! Last time, the fourteenth brother of the Faithful King didn't believe in this evil, and when the emperor was appreciating the little song, he broke in because he was favored.

The emperor, who was disturbed by the noise brought by the faithful king, was furious, and personally picked up the whip and whipped the faithful, if it wasn't for Concubine Zhen coming over in time, I am afraid that the butt would be smashed.

Wow, it's Jinyu playing and singing!

The emperor also closed his eyes and listened to the Uighur music that he didn't understand at all, but the mood of Jia Hui's performance also made the emperor feel what kind of emotions were expressed.

After playing an interlude again, Jia Hui continued to sing...

"The autumn clouds thunder and roll,

Is it going to bring a rainstorm?

O my two young sons who are joined together,

Are they going to shed tears? ”

Pluck the strings a few more times and say again:

"Autumn clouds and thunder rolling,

Is it going to bring a rainstorm?

O my two young sons who are joined together,

Are they going to shed tears? ”

As if affectionately depressed, Jia Hui looked at the strings:

"When you listen to all this,

He was lying quietly on the mound of his homeland......"

Another ensemble, Jia Hui's piano gradually slowed down and became more serious, turned his head sideways, and immediately pressed the strings with his fingers after the last accent was plucked, and the musicians and Jia Hui stopped at the same time.

"Good!" The emperor standing at the door cheered vigorously, causing the emperor who was still reminiscing about the sound of the piano to glance at the emperor dissatisfied.

The emperor's hair suddenly exploded, and he quickly closed his mouth and walked into the hall.

"Hehe, boy, you are modest, you can play well, you can sing well, but you can still speak Uighur language?"

"The emperor tortured his ministers, and the concubines of the ministers were the Uighurs, and the Uighur language was naturally learned.

Besides, there was nothing to do in the Western Regions except for fighting, and I happened to like to play musical instruments, so I found someone to learn it. ”

"Learned? It's not like learning, hey, a few of you talk about it, how did General Jia talk? ”

"The general's skills are among the best even among us Uighurs...", the lead musician said and felt that this surname was a little familiar, and he didn't recognize it when he was fiddling with the instrument just now, but now he looked at it and almost jumped up in fright.

"General Jia? Python..."

A tall musician accidentally blurted out and knelt on the ground in fright, which made the remaining musicians also at a loss and knelt on the ground together.

"Haha, it's okay, a certain family likes the nickname Python Gesi, and you guys are also very good, and you can cooperate well in the first ensemble."

"Okay, since Jinyu has forgiven you, get up, boy, I didn't expect you to be quite famous in the Western Regions!"

Jia Hui smiled reservedly.

"Where and where, all thanks to the blessings of the emperor and the emperor, if there is no full support from the two emperors, how can there be Jia Hui today?"

All three laughed at the same time.

"You kid, don't shoot if you don't know how to shoot on the back, listen to Lao Tzu disgusting, okay, go back, come and play a few songs for me when you have time." I'm a little tired, Emperor, come back tomorrow! ”

After speaking, the emperor lay down on the couch, closed his eyes, and snored after a few breaths.

The emperor and Jia Hui glanced at each other, and at the same time, a trace of worry flashed.

Since the destruction of the Yuan, the emperor seems to have lost his obsession, and he has become more and more disinclined to move, and gradually shows his old state.

You must know that a few years ago, even if Prince Li rebelled, a large number of children and grandchildren were slaughtered, and the illness of the emperor could not make the emperor white.

On the contrary, it took less than ten days for the news of the destruction of the Yuan to reach Beijing, and the hair was almost half white.

Facing this old man who has always treated him as his own children and grandchildren, Jia Hui even regretted bringing An Tong back.

Sensing Jia Hui's looming remorse, the emperor, who had always been gentle, stopped.

"Jinyu, there is no need to blame yourself, the emperor has been at war with the Yuan people since he was still the crown prince, and it has been forty years, and in these forty years, destroying the Yuan has become the emperor's obsession.

For a hero like the emperor, instead of being unwilling to live a hundred years old, the most important thing is to end the obsession, even if it is to die..."

The emperor paused and hurriedly covered his mouth.

"Ahem, I didn't say anything, and you didn't hear anything!"

The emperor stared at Jia Hui's eyes and said.

“…… Be. "What else can be said? This kind of thing has to rot in the stomach.

"Okay, you go back too, supervise the family, at the end of the month, we will set off for Shendu, several old commanders are also old, and you have to keep an eye on the relocation of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies!"

"Obey! It's just that the minister still has a question, I don't know the emperor..."

"Tell me about it, I will tell you what I can say."

"Why do you want to move the capital in this cold winter? With so many people dragging their families and mouths, the canals are frozen, and it will be even more difficult to walk in case of another snow..."

"This matter, Qin Tianjian said that although it is cold this winter, there is not much snow, and when I wait for the beginning of spring, the road will be muddy and difficult to walk.

Even if it's snowing, you can use a climbing plow, and of course, the final point you know what it is? "The emperor sold it.

"It's... I don't know. ”

Jia Hui had a bad premonition.

"Most importantly, the Emperor is willing!"

“……”

Sure enough, I can only say that you are worthy of the emperor.

Five thousand three hundred words!

Then, the song I wrote was a restored ancient Uighur song by the Alkesh Orchestra, "Tears of the Clouds", I personally like the music of the steppe style and ethnic minorities, and interested book friends can search for it.
