Jiankang, the imperial city.

Before dawn, a group of ministers had already gathered in the Jinluan Palace.

Xiao Yan has been on the throne for six years, and is about to usher in the seventh year, during these six years, although he believes in Buddhism, his temperament has changed in the eyes of many courtiers, but his diligence has not changed, every morning court, never stopping, even if he goes to attend some temple morning classes, he must wait for the morning after the morning court.

Every day is like this, for those gold-armored guards outside the Jinluan Palace, they are naturally a little accustomed to it, and there is nothing new, but today, these soldiers standing solemnly outside the Jinluan Palace, their expressions are a little different from the past, and many people can't help but stretch out their ears, wanting to hear the emperor's speech on the dragon chair inside.

The news of Zhongli's victory has spread all over Jiankang, and from yesterday night to now, the area around the small courtyard where Lin Yi lived before has almost been trampled down. The humble shabby courtyard has now become a first-class scenic spot in Jiankang.

If you talk about Zhongli's victory, the final word is, of course, the flooding of the Northern Wei army by General Wei Rui, but if there was no Lin Yi to defend the city before, if hundreds of thousands of Northern Wei troops attacked the city, Zhongli City would have completely fallen into the hands of the Northern Wei army, then the Northern Wei army on the north bank of Huaishui must have all crossed the river, with Zhongli City as the center of defense, if the battle situation of Zhongli City was not very tragic, even the north wall was dilapidated... If the north wall is intact, and the Northern Wei people have looted so many ships to dock at the north wall, then Wei Rui is afraid that the water attack will be useless, and the next victory or defeat is unknown.

What's more, what kind of army is the Tiece Army?

This is not a regular elite border army at all.

Commanding such an army of 3,000 to block more than 100,000 elite troops of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and even the chief general of the Northern Wei Dynasty, Xi Ruyu, was killed, what kind of achievement is this?

These Jin Jiawei who were arrayed outside the Jinluan Hall in the early dynasties were all from the Yongzhou army, carefully selected from the Yongzhou army, and they were all experienced in a hundred battles, but the more experienced they were, the more they knew that this was an unimaginable thing.

Although Lin Yi is also very beautiful after Meishan, in their eyes, he is just a junior who has not dried up, but after the first battle of Zhongli, no one dares to think like this anymore.

Lin Yi's battle not only subdued Xi Ruyubu of the Northern Wei Dynasty and Yang Lu's White Bone Army, but also subdued everyone in their Yongzhou Army.

It's very simple, these golden guards are very clear, whether it is the Yongzhou army when they left Yongzhou before, or after they expanded their military strength at this time, they became the Zhongzhou army of the Southern Dynasty at this time, whether it is the Yongzhou army or which general of the Zhongzhou army is now, let alone bring thousands of troops, even if they bring 30,000 troops, and the armament is arbitrarily chosen, I am afraid it is impossible to hold Zhongli.

At today's court meeting, the emperor must reward Lin Yi.

Now they and everyone in Jiankang City were very curious about what kind of reward the emperor would give Lin Yi.

The more curious and expectant I became, the more itchy I became, and the more I felt that the meeting that usually didn't seem to be too long was extraordinarily long.

Finally, when the court meeting finally ended, and the ministers all came out, and when a golden armor guard escorted these adults to the carriage outside the palace gate along the road, he couldn't help but ask a most familiar official in a soft voice, "My lord, who is General Nalin in the palace today?"

He asked simply, but this official naturally knew what it meant, this official's face was expressionless, his lips moved slightly, and he didn't even seem to be speaking, but his voice was thin and clear into the ears of the Golden Armor Guard, "Give the eleventh class, General Shenwei Zhenxi." Build a hundred acres of fertile land, and return the former Lin Wangbei's house. Lin Wangbei returned to his hometown and built a healthy pension. ”

"Class Eleven?"

The Golden Guard Commander shuddered as if he had been struck by lightning.

He was shocked and inexplicably took it for granted. In terms of generals, whether it is Xi Ruyu or Yang Lu, their generals in the Northern Wei Dynasty are calculated according to the officials of the Southern Dynasty, and their official positions are probably at least equivalent to the fifteenth class of officials in the Southern Dynasty.

Lin Yi killed Xi Ruyu, so that Xi Ruyu's army was helpless, and it was not an exaggeration to reward Lin Yi's eleventh class general based on this alone.

But according to Lin Yi's previous Tiece officer position, this is an unknown number of ranks promoted all of a sudden.

Originally, in his private discussions with many Zhongzhou army generals, they guessed that it might be a general of the ninth class, which was amazing enough, but they didn't expect it to be a general of the eleventh class.

In this way, according to the general's position, there are only about 20 people left in the entire Southern Dynasty military, whose official rank is higher than Lin Yi's.

This is really not flying, soaring into the sky.

But in addition to being shocked, the commander of the Golden Armor Guard came back to his senses a little and realized the word "Zhenxi" in it.

"Not the north, but the west?"

He was stunned, and subconsciously asked again.

"Go and teach the party a lesson. The official didn't dare to say much in the palace, for fear of being rumored, so he just replied in an unusually simple whisper.

This Golden Armor Guard Commander was not a stupid person, he was fixed, no longer spoke, his eyes flickered, and he suddenly realized the meaning.

......

"Class 11 general, how big is that?"

"That is an official as big as the Imperial History Zhongcheng, the left and right cavalry generals. There is also a Shaofu Lord who seems to be in the eleventh class. ”

"What is the official position of the Tong Protector?"

"That's the general of the fifteenth class. ”

"What, does that mean that after General Lin Yi was promoted, he was four orders younger than Tong Hujun?"

"Then you can't surpass Tong Hujun all at once, Tong Hujun was the number one fierce general under the Holy Master, and he led the army to open the palace gate of Jiankang Palace back then. ”

"Anyway, he's still young, and the saint probably wants him to practice for a few more years. ”

"It's really a ..... of the door tiger"

Within half an hour, the entire Jiankang City was already talking about the reward of today's court meeting.

Most of the ordinary people actually don't have much concept of this official position, usually even a class of officials, for them is already a very big official position, but no matter what, the entire Jiankang City is extremely lively.

The whole city is talking about one person, the last time, it was when the current emperor Xiao Yan mutinied and led the troops to approach Jiankang City.

......

When the whole city was talking about Lin Yi, a monk was sailing on the water in a small boat, and it was still half a day's journey from Jiankang City.

The monk wore a hat on his head and a bronze bowl in his hand, the edges of which were worn out.

His complexion was dark, and the skin of his hands and feet was dry.

In the eyes of the boatman, this monk is an ordinary wandering monk.

After all, there is a Buddhist temple in Jiankang City, and the monks from those poor places in the Southern Dynasty should be able to live better than before in Jiankang City.

It's just that this monk is actually setting foot in the territory of the Southern Dynasty for the first time.
