Chapter 210 Reward

Today is the day when Jiang Yong and others returned to Beijing triumphantly. Jiang Ting took an incongtrusive green canopy carriage with Wen early in the morning and walked out of the capital from the west gate to the north of the city. The army's honor guard had to enter Beijing from the North Gate, which had been martial since the early morning, and a large number of soldiers were guarded. That is to say, ordinary people can't pass through the North Gate.

In order to show the importance and praise of the imperial court for the triumphant soldiers, the crown prince and the eldest prince will lead hundreds of officials of the imperial court out of Beijing for ten miles to welcome the return of the army. In order to protect the safety of the prince and the eldest prince, as well as the 100 officials of the imperial court, the wide avenue outside the north gate of the city has been cleaned up since the morning. Now it has been heavily guarded, with a long line of soldiers step by step. Not only that, there was a court guard with strong martial arts across several people, and the security work was done carefully and completely.

Jiang Ting and Wen expected that many people would come to the north of the city to wait today, so they took a carriage early in the morning. But even so, many people arrived earlier than them. However, because the road has been under martial law, the families of these soldiers are also not close to the army. Therefore, although everyone came early, they could only stay and wait on the slope 200 meters away on both sides of the road.

At the end of the day, the shadow of the army finally slowly appeared in everyone's eyes from the end of their eyes. Ten miles away, the army paused for a long time. Obviously, they would be in line with His Royal Highness who went to greet him.

At noon, Jiang Ting and the others finally saw the army's guard of honor like a long dragon. Jiang Ting and Wen both squeezed nervously and excitedly at the door and lifted the curtain to see. Their eyes only stared at the front of the honor guard, the general in ink armor riding a jujube red war horse. Although the face is too far away, Jiang Ting and Wen are very familiar with the posture, which must be Jiang Yong.

Although we met more than half a month ago, when they saw Jiang Yong's powerful posture, Jiang Ting and Wen felt full of joy, excitement, emotion and worship. The two have different feelings for Jiang Yong, but they both regard him as a dependent. Therefore, Jiang Yong was able to return safely, but the two were surprisingly happy.

"Well, people can't see it anymore. Let's go back quickly and get ready to welcome your father back home safely. Wen said to Jiang Ting when she saw that the person behind the honor guard had already covered Jiang Yong in front of him.

Jiang Ting was stunned, looked at Wen and asked, "Are we going back now?" Madam, I'm afraid Dad will enjoy a celebration banquet in the palace today. I'm afraid it will be night when he returns home. Don't you want to watch the bustle anymore?"

Wen raised his eyebrows and said, "What's good to see? Isn't it just that there are many people? Let's go back quickly. It's about this time. It's time for lunch. Maybe your father will go home first?"

Although Jiang Ting felt that what Wen said was mostly unlikely. But she understood Wen's mood, so she gave up the thought of continuing to watch the bustle and returned home with her. She looked at Wen, who was full of smiles and couldn't help laughing. Alas, from morning to noon, just to see the powerful general. From this point of view, Wen is also a pure little woman. No matter how she is, her heart is not bad for her father. Maybe Dad also saw this, so sometimes he indulged her to do some confused things.

Jiang Ting finally took a nostalgic look at the magnificent soldier's long dragon and put down the curtain.

Jiang Yong and others entered the city gate and followed the prince, the eldest prince and the officials of the imperial court to enter the palace. However, the soldiers in the line were taken back to the barracks by the generals led by their respective formations.

When they came to the palace, the generals had no time to eat and wash, so they went straight to the Qingluan Hall excitedly and excitedly. When he entered the hall, the emperor was already sitting on the throne of the dragon chair waiting for them.

"Thank you for your hard work, generals." After the generals entered the gate of the hall, without waiting for them to worship, the emperor stood upright and walked down to greet each other.

"See my emperor, long live my emperor!" More than a dozen major generals shouted long live together and saluted the emperor standing in front of them.

"All of you, love, flat!" The emperor was excited and his eyes shone secretly. He looked at the extraordinary young generals in the hall and couldn't help saying three words: "Okay, okay, okay!"

After saying three "good" words, the emperor lifted the hem of the dragon robe, walked up the steps again, sat back in the dragon chair, raised his hand and raised his voice: "Love you, listen!"

After the grand ceremony, you will be waiting for the award. There are no redundant words, no exquisite praise, only three "good" words from the heart. Although the emperor said little, these loyal generals were very excited to hear it. If you can get the emperor's sincere praise, it will be worth dying on the battlefield in the future! Now that I hear that the emperor is going to be rewarded again, although these generals are determined, they are also a little excited. They were not afraid of the fierceness of the enemy when fighting. Why did they rush into battle and die? For the stability of the country, the well-being of our compatriots, loyal to the emperor, responsible for the imperial court, and at the same time, in order to become famous!

The rewards of ordinary soldiers are naturally determined by the Ministry of Ceremonies according to the size of military merit. But the generals who led the army to fight had to be rewarded by the emperor himself. Now the generals standing in the hall are all fierce generals who have made great achievements in this battle. At this time, when I heard that I was going to be rewarded, I couldn't hide my evil spirit for a moment. They just knelt down to listen to the reward, but they let people see the momentum that they were about to go to war.

Jiang Yong, who knelt in the front, seemed a little elegant against the backdrop of a group of fierce people behind him.

The emperor looked at the murderous generals below and couldn't help but be happy: "Don't be nervous, everyone has a reward. Prince, come and read the imperial edict.

Prince Liu Yu smiled and answered, "Your father's holy order."

The prince handed over the imperial edict already prepared by the emperor to the prince. The eldest prince Liu Yan looked at the prince calmly but with sharp eyes, and then withdrew his eyes and knelt down with the ministers to listen to the decree. Prince Liu Yu unfolded the imperial edict without squinting, and read the imperial edict aloud before standing above the hall.

Jiang Yong, as the commander-in-chief, can win this battle, not only because he uses the right people, but also because he is familiar with the northern Mongolian grassland, which plays a great role in the strategic decision during the war. Therefore, he is the first in this battle, and no one has any objection.

Therefore, the emperor's reward for him is naturally the most important at this time. As a result, the imperial edict to reward him was ranked first. Jiang Yong listened calmly to the emperor's award for him. To sum up, the title was promoted from the original second-class marquis to the first-class marquis, and his ex-wife Li and the Ji room temperature received corresponding titles. In addition, his original position as a servant of military department has not been promoted, but he has a third-class brave general; and as for other kinds of wealth and silk If there is a reward, there will be a reward of 1,000 taels, a place in Huangzhuang, and there are many other pearl treasures to play with...

Listening to this, Jiang Yong couldn't help raising a smile at the corners of his mouth and was even a little distracted. He still remembers her joyful appearance many years ago when he gave the reward silver earned by military merit to Ting'er. Now he has been promoted to the title by military merit, and has won a large reward. After he went back, the little money fan was more happy to see that he had made so much money this time. Well, and Wen, she also loves money very much, and she will definitely be very happy...

"...In addition, the eldest daughter of Jiang Yong, the Marquis of Zhenbei, was named the head of Derong County. I admire this." The prince finally finished reading the last word and closed the imperial edict. He looked at Jiang Yong with a slightly complicated look and handed the imperial edict to him: "Lord Jiang, take the order."

Jiang Yong looked at the imperial edict in a dazzling and daring to reach out to pick it up. The reward in front of him can be received with peace of mind. But the last sentence "Jiang Yong's eldest daughter was named the head of Derong County" really made him feel a little flattered. County owner, that's a serious second-grade title! Why did the emperor suddenly come to be so tolerant of the Jiang family?

He wanted to refuse, but he thought that as long as he received the imperial edict, his beloved daughter could become a noble county leader, and all those refusals were unspeakable.

"Lord Jiang was surprised and a little dizzy, didn't he? Lord Jiang, please accept the order!" The prince raised his tone slightly, as if it were a joke, and woke up Jiang Yong, who was distracted.

Jiang Yong looked up at the prince with a trace of gratitude in his eyes, and then kowtowed respectfully to the ground and shouted, "Thank you, Lord Long's kindness!"

After that, Jiang Yong held the imperial edict in his arms, but he was like holding a hot potato, and his heart could not settle down. The prince is still reading the imperial edict and announcing the reward for other vice generals. But Jiang Yong is no longer in the mood to listen to it.

He didn't understand why the emperor suddenly made Ting'er the head of the county, which made him feel a little uncomfortable. He knew that the emperor was a very scheming man. Perhaps because he lost a loyalty because of carelessness when he first ascended the throne, the emperor's style of behavior slowly changed from the original flam and sharpness to calm and restrained. The emperor will not do meaningless things. Everything he does has a reason and purpose. This is Jiang Yong's most intuitive understanding of the emperor in the past three years.

Jiang Yong is very self-aknowledgeable. Although he won the Western Expedition, he won the first victory. But in a practical sense, this victory is not a great contribution. Because, although the Northern Mongolians retreated, they pushed the defense line out of a hundred miles. But in fact, it was originally a three-indifferent zone, and a few years ago, he went hunting in the northwest farther. Therefore, the extrapolation of the defense line did not really hurt the muscles and bones of the North Mongolian people.

In fact, Jiang Yong felt that removing the last article about the title of Ting'er as the county head was a more reasonable reward for himself. But now that the imperial edict has been received, no matter how many doubts and uneasiness he is, he can't help but bear it. He can't afford to resist the order.

However, he was actually very happy that his daughter could get a reward unexpectedly. With the title of the county head, let's see who dares to bully him again!
