Above the court, Gonggong Hong read out the will of the reward, and Xiahou Zhong was named the general of the protector of the country, rewarded with 10,000 taels of silver, and several boxes of jewelry.

Tang Jun was reinstated with the official, and Tang Mu was rewarded with a set of court clothes for the second lady, Xiao Xinrong was unable to be rewarded because he was already a prince, so he had to be rewarded, and the rest of the meritorious soldiers were each promoted to one level.

Even Xiao Yunfei, who was rushing back in the rear, was also rewarded and was named a second-class general.

Xiahou Zhong and Tang Jun were both grateful, and Emperor Xuanhua was obviously also happy, announcing that a banquet would be held in the palace five days later to celebrate the victorious return of the soldiers.

Xiahou was surrounded by his colleagues in the middle, and all of them who could mix in the court to the present were all human spirits, saying beautiful words on their lips, and congratulating them one by one.

Some people also inadvertently inquired about Xiahou Xuan's news, and those who have meritorious service are rewarded, and Xiahou Xuan became a captain.

Although he is only a six-rank petty official, Xiahou Xuan sat in this position at a young age, and there was Xiahou Zhong's backer behind him, and it was easy for him to go up.

Xiahou Xuan, you are young and have not married a wife, which is a small calculation in the eyes of people who have daughters.

"Brother Xiahou has been fighting abroad all the year round, and he hasn't seen him for several years, and this time he came back and was promoted to the next level, so it is natural to have a banquet to celebrate such a big event. Zhang Shangshu and Xiahou's family are old acquaintances, so they naturally didn't let go of this opportunity, and said jokingly.

"Yes, yes, you must have a feast. A few people next to him echoed.

Xiahou clenched his fists with both hands, thanked them one by one, smiled heartily, and said in a loud voice: "Certainly, I will invite you to appreciate your face at that time." ”

Finally after the greetings, Xiahou Zhong returned to the mansion, the mansion had already received the reward sent by the inner servant, the whole mansion was full of joy, the Lin family and the Wang family in Yanhe Hall were all there, and even Xiahou Lin Xiahou Ting was here.

Xiahou Shuang also came to Yanhe Hall early to serve the old lady with medicine, since Xiahou Zhong and Xiahou Shuang came back, Lin had to secretly stop giving medicine to the old lady under the fear of being scared, without Lin's poison, and after the careful conditioning of the imperial doctor, and then Xiahou Shuang's father and brother were called back, and were praised by His Majesty.

People are in good spirits on happy occasions, and the old lady's illness has improved a lot after a few times, but because of the old age, Lin's medicine is too domineering, and she has always been sick, but now she can use some food, and she has something in her stomach, and she naturally has strength in her body.

After a few people thanked them, they returned the rewarded items to the warehouse, and left them in Yanhetang to talk to the old lady and wait for Xiahou to come back.

After Xiahou Zhong came back, he greeted his mother first, and Lin sat down with joy in his eyes, and couldn't wait to ask: "Hou Ye was rewarded in the palace, and the concubine and mother have received a reward from the palace." ”

Xia Houzhong nodded, and before he could speak, the Wang family over there twisted vinegar and said with a sour interface: "Uncle is also hard, he fought hard to kill the enemy outside to get a reward, these things must be taken care of, this is what the uncle exchanged for his life." ”

Wang's heart is unwilling, his husband has not inherited the title, and he is just a scholar, and he doesn't know when he will enter the cabinet, this Lin family's small family background, I really don't know where the uncle and mother fancy her, one by one, they will hold her high, and they don't see if there is that blessing.

In the face of Wang's words with sourness, Lin disagreed, today the husband won the reward, and he also had a light on his face, and his identity also rose with the tide, and he turned a deaf ear to her words, but smiled and said: "These are all fought for by the Hou Ye, and the concubine also feels extremely honored." ”

Guan will be playing, as soon as he saw the fake Lin, Wang only gritted his teeth with jealousy, because of Xiahou Yan's accident a while ago, although Wang did not fall into the well in person, but he was secretly happy in his heart for a long time.

Not to mention that Xia Hou Ze gave it a try, he was directly on the list, and he married the young lady of Cui Mansion, everything went well, and the Wang family's life was very smooth, but I didn't expect Hou Ye to directly repel foreign enemies at the border pass.

Hou Ye is like a pillar in the house, it is with this unshakable pillar that everyone can live smoothly, Hou Ye can sit in a stable position, and his husband and children can also be stained, these Wang family are all well aware, but when they see Lin's proud face, they feel angry in their hearts.

I was still about to reply, but at this time, Xiahou Jing got up on the side and said: "Niece congratulates the uncle on being rewarded, we should have a lively banquet for such a big happy event." ”

Xiahou Jing was afraid that her mother would not hide her words, and what she said on the happy day would make her grandmother and uncle angry, but the gains outweighed the losses.

Thinking of this, he got up and blocked Wang's words, and when Wang saw that it was his daughter who spoke, he had to stop his mouth stupidly.

Xiahou Lin glared at the Wang family unhappily, and didn't look at what kind of occasion this was, he opened his mouth to talk nonsense at will, and saw Jing'er open his mouth to close the paddock, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and his daughter was reliable at the critical moment, and this Wang family would definitely have to beat it after he came down.

As soon as Xiahou Jing's words came out, the old lady showed a smile on her face: "Yes, this is the supreme honor in our house, and we should invite guests to come and celebrate." ”

Seeing that the old lady also agreed, Lin said happily: "Then the daughter-in-law will come to handle this matter, and it will definitely satisfy the mother and the Hou Ye." ”

The old lady nodded: "You have always reassured me that you will not make a mistake with you." ”

A while ago, because of a few foolish things done by the Lin family, she lost the favor of the old lady, and during this time, seeing that the Lin family suddenly woke up, the old lady accepted it again, after all, she was her eldest daughter-in-law, and she gave birth to children for the Hou Mansion, and she also raised the two brothers and sisters of Xiahou Shuang, even if there was something wrong, as long as she could reform herself, the Lin family was still the chief daughter-in-law of the Hou Mansion steadily.

Seeing that the old lady praised herself, Lin was overjoyed, her face was like a peach blossom, her eyebrows were smiling, and she smiled at the old lady and said: "Mother praises her, and your daughter-in-law is ashamed." ”

At that time, the Lin family begged his mother to come to propose marriage because of his love for Xiahouzhong, and he worked hard to become Xiahouzhong's wife, and he also did his best to Xiahouzhong and Xiahoushuang's brothers and sisters when he first entered the mansion, and took good care of them.

But Xiahou Zhong has always been cold and indifferent to the Lin family, and gradually cold the Lin family's heart, and Xiahou Zhong's partiality to Xiahou Shuang's brothers and sisters made the Lin family have their own plans in their hearts.

But after all, it is the husband he loves, and now he has finally seen people, and this time he has been rewarded by His Majesty when he comes back, and he has a light on his face, and some careful thoughts in the past have been diluted a lot by the joy of coming again.
