Chapter 411 Celebration Banquet
Chapter 411 Celebration Banquet
"You are no longer close to me, so why should I worry about you?" The old general's eyes were slightly red.
After hearing this, Wen Jiu rushed over, knelt beside his legs, and lay on the old general's legs, "So, will grandpa not want wine?"
"Little conscienceless"
After a while, he said, "You must have suffered a lot! Ru Ming, that old man, is so serious and stern. It's worth it for you to learn under him."
"Well, he said I graduated, Grandfather," Wen Jiu said and sobbed.
The old general knew that she missed him. The old man Fu Ruming, the emperor's teacher could teach his granddaughter, which meant that Jiu'er really caught his eye. He could hold back so much and not say it. The old man really owed you a lot.
"It's not easy to get him to say that he has graduated. The child proves that you are very good." The old general patted her shoulder.
Everyone went to the ancestral hall together
Except for the old general, everyone knelt on the ground
"son"
"Daughter-in-law"
"Grandson"
"I'm back late"
A cry of sorrow
Grandma, your dear has returned, brought back my second uncle and second aunt, and won the war and pacified the north. Would you be proud of me? Of course you would! Wen Jiu still had tears in his eyes.
After packing up briefly, the group went to the palace
At the palace banquet, the Queen Mother and the Empress were the happiest.
"Bai Er has made great contributions this time. The Emperor should not forget to reward him." The Queen Mother was relieved.
"I know"
"Bai Er's great victory in this expedition is due to the careful planning made by General Su and Xiao Jue. They are unstoppable and have made great contributions." Emperor Yuan smiled happily
Xiao Jingbai and Yu Wenjiu sneered. In order not to give all the credit to Xiao Jingbai, they were willing to disperse the credit. If it was Xiao Jingyu, all the credit would have been put on his head long ago!
Emperor Yuan has instructed that we should take on more government affairs in the future.
The Queen and the Queen Mother froze, and said nothing more.
When it came to rewarding merit, all the officers in the three armies were promoted one level, and those with major contributions were promoted to a higher position.
As for those who died for the country, they will be given a lavish funeral and pensions will be distributed from the national treasury.
"Xiao Jingbai, my good son, please stay and help me. There is a vacancy in Jingzhao Prefecture, and you will be given the management position."
"Thank you, Father, but I'm afraid it's not appropriate." Xiao Jingbai knelt down to thank him, looking up at the imperial concubine.
"I think it's very suitable." Emperor Yuan knew that the imperial concubine had troubled him many times since Xiao Jingbai came back, but he never came to complain.
Wen Jiu could see that Emperor Yuan was doing a good job in this matter and it was hard to find fault with him.
Su Yanchen still refused to accept any official title and declined. Emperor Yuan was pleased to see
Su Jinyu had already made meritorious service before he was appointed as an official, and Emperor Yuan was having a headache, but Su Jinyu remained calm.
"Su Jinyu has made great contributions to Ganzhou, and this time he has made great contributions, so he is given the title of Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery and is to be the heir apparent."
"Su Jinmu, Bai'er also mentioned the bravery of you and Su Jinxiu. Su Jinmu is the brave captain. As for Su Jinxiu, it won't be too late to discuss it after he wakes up."
"Marshal Su's merits and demerits are offset. After recovering from his injuries, he will go to the northwest to continue guarding the Great Dynasty. I wonder if Marshal Su is meaningful?" Emperor Yuan looked at the underground
"Your Majesty is Wise"
"The Su family is full of loyal and brave people, and I am very pleased."
This sentence makes everyone think differently
"Your Majesty, I heard that Japan has a treasure that can flatten the ground within tens or even hundreds of meters," said Minister Xue.
"Oh?" Emperor Yuan seemed to be interested.
Wen Jiu looked at Xiao Jingbai calmly, and the two of them looked at each other and understood instantly.
"It's a pity that the Japanese were massacred..." Xue Zhan expressed regret
"I wonder if Prince Duan has asked someone to hand over the weapon manufacturing method, which will make us stronger." He looked at Xiao Jingbai proudly.
"no"
Emperor Yuan looked at him suspiciously. Did he take such a good weapon into his possession?
"Minister Xue is really busy. It's easy for him to know the news that takes months to arrive. It's obvious that he cares about this matter more than the emperor. He is really busy." Wen Jiu sat there and replied slowly.
She wanted to plant the seeds of suspicion in Emperor Yuan about Xiao Jingbai, so she would reciprocate.
Emperor Yuan looked at Xue Zhan. How could this old man not tell him? Where did he get the information? He looked at Xue Zhan with a slightly cold look. His hand was really long.
"Your Majesty, I also heard what those soldiers said today..." Xue Zhan knelt down hurriedly
I'm drinking wine and smiling. It's up to Emperor Yuan whether to believe it or not.
"It was the princess's daughter who ran off to join the army..." Xue Zhan deliberately trailed off.
"Don't be impulsive, the princess will definitely find a way." The general on the side pulled another
"Oh, in the eyes of Minister Xue, women must be subordinate to men? They can never make a name for themselves? They can only be trapped in the house? They can only take care of their husbands and children?"
"I'm sorry, I'm the daughter of Su Zhuohua, a descendant of a military family. When the enemy alliance invades, I can't stay out of it. What's more, my relatives and comrades are all on the battlefield, and some of them are still alive or dead. There were heavy casualties. As for taking care of a husband and children, this princess is not married yet."
"Minister Xue doesn't think it's easy to win this time!"
"Nearly 50,000 of our heroes were killed or wounded. Even with such a meticulous plan, this number still occurred. Second uncle has guarded the northwest for decades and is very experienced, but he still lost. Guess why?"
"You don't know, because that was the Union Army, equivalent to a Northwest Army, fighting against several countries. The enemy was not brainless, but had very resourceful military advisors. Although my second uncle was defeated, he still won honor. At least he held on to the last two cities and waited for rescue."
"A general's life is also a life. This princess was deep in the battlefield, and the rear rescued her. Even the emperor did not blame her. I wonder what Shangshu Xue's intention is to target a woman like me?" Wen Jiu said so much.
Only the soldiers in the Northwest Campaign felt this. They were almost in despair at the time. The Marshal was missing and cities were lost one after another.
Finally, the general and his men arrived and took back the city step by step. Finally, the princess came and won the victory.
"Your Majesty, we were almost in despair at that time." Deputy General Hong had a righteous look on his face, and tears flowed down his face.
This Xue Shangshu must be a bad guy. He insulted the princess like this.
"Your Majesty, I didn't say anything, I just felt that it would be dangerous for the princess to go to the battlefield."
"The princess is really wronged" Xue Zhan is smooth and can handle anything
"Father, I have been doing some research on gunpowder recently. I wonder if it is the kind that Minister Xue mentioned." Prince Jing stood up and bowed.
Very good, just waiting to jump in, warm the wine without sitting down, listen quietly to the following
"Oh, is what Prince Jing said true?" Xue Zhan immediately smiled happily.
"Yu'er, study this?" Emperor Yuan looked pleased.
"Yes, it is not much different from what Minister Xue said. It is not yet complete. I will wait until it is complete and present it to the emperor, and announce it to the world to show the country's strength." Prince Jing looked like a filial son.
"Good, good, good, you are really my good son." Emperor Yuan happily raised his chest with pride.
The imperial concubine beside him was honored
"Your Highness Prince Jing, please check the participants in the production carefully," Wen Jiu reminded.
"Why did the princess say that?" The imperial concubine was displeased.
Prince Jing and Emperor Yuan also looked at her in disappointment.
"Because, when I killed the King of Ryukyu of Wa, he confessed that it was my dynasty that provided him with this weapon," Wen Jiu said mischievously.
"I testify that it is true. I had intended to present it to my father after the banquet." Prince Duan stood up and looked impartial.
Emperor Yuan's eyes narrowed immediately.
