Her sword technique is very clumsy, her steps are extremely rough, and she doesn't know how to exert her strength, and it looks more like she is wielding a burning stick indiscriminately.

Lin Xuan just glanced at it, then withdrew his gaze, without any thoughts, returned to the room with his own care, and continued to make up for sleep with his arms around Mu Qing'er.

"No sympathy at all"

Ginger muttered.

I thought that he would not be able to stand it, so I pointed myself out a few tricks, but I didn't think that Lin Xuan would not be fooled at all.

Since then

Jiang Ni, the princess of the Chu State, officially started her sword training career in the general's mansion, got up before dawn, and fell asleep late at night.

In the first half month, I practiced dizzy every day, and I fell asleep, but as the days went on, I slowly began to get used to this kind of life.

No one pointed out, so I groped and practiced by myself.

This year, the snow in Yan County came earlier than usual, and one day in early November, sparse snowflakes drifted.

The fierce wind rolled the dead branches and leaves in Dafu Mountain and fell into the courtyard, and the evergreen bamboo also withered two leaves.

The snowflakes fell into the pool water, and in a blink of an eye, they melted without a trace, and fell on their faces, glowing with a biting cold.

The slaves in the general's mansion all divided thick coats, some of which were worn early, and some time ago, Zhang Bocai bought a batch of silver charcoal and burned it first.

Lin Zhenbei sent a message, and a batch of high-quality charcoal was transported back from Liangliao, and it would arrive in a few days.

In addition to supplying various Yamen and officials, the rest were sold to the families of Yandi.

Although he didn't earn much, he also had tens of thousands of taels of silver, make up for it, make it up, and he could make up a light armor that thousands of people rode.

Business, fine water and long streams, mosquito legs are also meat, how can you eat into a big fat man in one go.

In this way, the business earns tens of thousands of taels, and that business earns thousands of taels, and the small amount becomes a lot.

As time passed, the snow grew bigger and bigger, light snow became medium snow, medium snow turned into heavy snow, splashing and shading the sky.

The entire three counties of Yanzhou are shrouded in heavy snow, and the mountains and wilderness are white, and the people of each county should also rest at this time to recharge their strength for next year's spring plowing.

The people can rest, but the soldiers cannot rest.

Now that the soldiers are strong and strong, there is plenty of food and grass, and there is heavy snow, it is a good time to train troops.

Early November

Tian Hu and Zhang Long each led 10,000 Xuanjia troops, exited from the Broken Dragon Pass, traveled lightly, and attacked the two southern states of the Northern Python.

The situation was like a broken bamboo, destroying the withering and decaying, and within half a month, he captured more than 30 cities of the Northern Python and wiped out tens of thousands of Northern Python warriors.

However, he did not slaughter the city, but took all the goods and the people of the Northern Python and sent them to Yan County.

Instead of resisting, those Northern Python people formed groups and took the initiative to follow the Yan army south.

In mid-November, the Northern Python mobilized tens of thousands of iron horses to chase after the Yan army led by Tian Hu and Zhang Long.

As a result, Qin Yuanba, who had been ambushed in advance, made a surprise attack with 1800 battalions of heavily armored cavalry.

Tian Hu and Zhang Long threw the Xuanjia army to retreat to the south was just a false move, in fact, they were waiting for the army of the Northern Python to come.

Three iron horses surrounded the 60,000 Northern Python army, fought fiercely for half a day, beheaded 30,000, and the Northern Python that fought could not be defeated.

I could only watch as the Yan army wrapped up in the Northern Python more than 100,000 people entered the Yanzhou realm from the Broken Dragon Pass.

These Northern Python people were resettled in many newly built villages and towns in Xiaping County, or sent to Shangdang to build cities.

The Northern Python side has won successive battles, and the Yan army of the upper party has also frequently attacked to attack those Huqiang tribes.

If it is surrendered, or slaughtered, or expelled.

Within a few days, official documents were delivered from both places, accompanied by a large number of cattle and sheep captives.

Inside the courtyard

Snow

Jiang Ni, wrapped in a long white dress, was practicing his sword in the snow, and in the room, Lin Xuan was sitting on a chair, roasting the fire and drinking tea.

Lin Yunqin walked in, holding a fold in her hand.

"Speaking of which, Zhang Wei, which tribe did they destroy again?"

Lin Xuan asked casually.

"Hee-hee, Gongzi has a clever calculation."

She said: "Two days ago, General Zhang mobilized 50,000 iron horsemen of the three guards of Duoyan to raid the Daman'er tribe, beheading 30,000 people, capturing more than 100,000 cattle and sheep, and capturing tens of thousands of Daman'er tribesmen and countless goods. "

"This is the first tribe they have wiped out this year?"

He took the fold, glanced at it, and casually threw it on the table.

"Nineteen."

Lin Yunqin replied.

"Nineteen tribes."

Lin Xuan stretched. Squinted his eyes: "Twenty-three battles, big and small, if you add the battle against the Northern Python, we have fought more than thirty battles this year." "

"That's right."

Lin Yunqin nodded: "There are more than thirty battles big and small, every battle will be won, and no battle will be lost." "

"More than 400,000 people have been captured by the Northern Python, and more than 90,000 Northern Python soldiers have been beheaded, and the entire Orange Prefecture is almost wiped out by our Yan Horse."

"Don't fight, don't remember long."

Lin Xuan snorted coldly: "Those Northern Python barbarians, who are not civilized, do not know manners and integrity, and to deal with them, they have to rely on iron horses and knives and guns to talk." "

"It's the month of La Yue soon, and this year's war should come to an end."

"Summon the troops, collect the troops back to the camp, rest and recuperate, replenish the troops who should replenish the troops."

"Good."

"In addition, gather all the big and small wars this year, write a fold and give it to me, and after reading it, send it to the capital in an urgent manner of eight hundred li."

At present, the support of the imperial court is also needed, and that Son of Heaven has been on the throne for two years, and he needs battle merits to show his martial arts.

Lin Xuan gave him these credits.

It is also good that the Son of Heaven can have a lively year, and there will be no reward.

It doesn't matter to him whether it is gold and silver jewelry, or silk, as long as he is knighted by the official.

The three counties of Yanzhou, with a vast territory, strong soldiers and horses, more than one million households, and forty-eight county guards, he is not short of money, people, food, armor and weapons, but only power.

Lin Yunqin was very efficient in handling affairs, and the next day he wrote down the fold, which was one foot high, and the content of it described in detail the large and small battles fought by the Yan army from the beginning of the year to the end of the year.

After reviewing it, he felt that it was correct, so he sent it again for Zhuge Qing to see, and then stamped the official seal of the general Zhenbei and sent someone to the capital for eight hundred li urgently.

"Gongzi, what do you say that the Son of Heaven will reward this year?"

Outside the courtyard, heavy snow is flying, and inside the courtyard, it is steaming.

Mu Qing'er finished the work in her hand and spoke.

"Jia Guan Jin Jue."

Lin Xuan said casually, "If it's anything else, I won't be able to look at it anyway." "

"Hee-hee."

Lin Yunqin said with a smile: "I guess I have to give Gongzi a marquis no matter what." "

"It's possible."

Mu Qing'er nodded: "Gongzi's merits are fully qualified to be crowned prime ministers." "

"We'll find out in a few days."

He shook his head.

If you send this fold yourself, the Son of Heaven should know the meaning.

Lin Xuan looked at Jiang Ni, who was practicing swords outside the courtyard, shuttling through the wind and snow, and his sword skills became more and more exquisite.

There was no one to teach, she practiced according to the sword score, the white skirt fluttered, the sword moved with her heart, this sword art attainment, at least can be worth those who have practiced sword art for four or five years in the rivers and lakes.

And Jiang Ni has only practiced swords for less than three months.

That's talent

What others cannot envy, is born, born with it, born without it.

Ordinary martial artists can also rely on diligent training day and night, plus a little chance and talent to set foot in the King Kong Realm.

However, the fingers and celestial phenomena above the Vajra realm are no longer realms that can be stepped on by diligence.

Not to mention the Land God Wonderland.

In the whole world, the Northern Python and the Central Plains are both in the wilderness, and there are only a few people who have set foot in the land god fairyland.

At least on the surface.

Lin Yunqin followed his gaze, and his eyes involuntarily flashed with a little envy.

She has self-awareness, her talent for martial arts training is really not good, she can only turn to political affairs to share more affairs for her son.

It's the New Year's Day

Wait until the fifth day of the first lunar month

Finally, he waited for the small yellow gate to pass on the decree in the palace, but instead of bringing the edict of adding officials to enter the jue, he asked Lin Xuan, the general of the second pin town to lead Yanzhou Taishou into Beijing to face the saint.

Listening to the flower hall, after Xiaohuangmen read the edict, he said with a smile: "Great General, you can hear clearly." "

"Heard clearly."

Lin Xuan nodded slightly, and when he received the order, he smoothly stuffed a stack of silver tickets into Xiaohuangmen's hand.

The latter glanced down, the smile on his face was even worse, and he unconsciously stuffed the silver ticket into his sleeve robe.

He waved his hand at the entourage behind him: "Let's all stand down and rest." "

"Zhang Bo."

He beckoned the lame old butler and said, "Take them down to eat some wine and food and settle into the guest room." "

"No."

Zhang Bo nodded, and led the forbidden army entourage in the palace to leave.

"Maharajah, drink tea."

Handing the edict to Mu Qing'er behind him and putting it away, he beckoned.

"The general is polite."

The old eunuch's old face blossomed, and the general of the Northern Great of this town was magnanimous, and the stack of silver tickets, let alone three or five thousand taels.

"Father-in-law, when do you leave?"

Lin Xuan spoke.

As the so-called Yan Wang Hao said, the little ghosts are difficult, and if these eunuchs in the palace do not give some benefits, it is difficult to ensure that they will not give themselves eye medicine after they return.

Instead of wasting time with them, it is better to send some money and make a personal favor, which can be used one day.

"Three or five days."

The old eunuch said: "This errand, Your Majesty urged it tightly, the general does not know, your folded son is sent to the palace, after Your Majesty reads it, don't be happy." "

Collecting money to do things, the old eunuch naturally understands that the leakage of the mouth should leak, if only take the silver does not do things.

Don't look at the Zhenbei general in front of him who is still smiling, he can't say that he will immediately clean himself up behind his back.

To be kind to others is to be kind to oneself, and if you have more human favors, you will have many ways out.

These eunuchs in the palace are extremely transparent.

It seems that Lin Xuan and other feudal officials with heavy troops in their hands are guarding a state, and it is better not to be guilty if they can not be offended.

The old eunuch took a sip of tea, moistened his throat, and continued: "Before our family set off, His Majesty was still discussing with the civil and military officials at the court how to reward the general. "

With that, the old eunuch closed his mouth.

Lin Xuan took out a thousand taels of silver ticket from his sleeve robe and placed it on the table: "Father-in-law take it to tea." "

"The general is polite." (Read violent novels, just go to Feilu Fiction Network!) ）

Saying so, the old eunuch collected the money faster than anyone, and in the blink of an eye, he pocketed the silver ticket.

Immediately, he glanced at Mu Qing'er behind Lin Xuan lightly.

"Father-in-law, but it doesn't hurt."

He spoke.

The old eunuch lowered his voice: "This matter cannot be reported, His Majesty's mind should be to give the marquis to the great general." "

"Seriously?"

He raised an eyebrow.

"Fifty percent."

The old eunuch nodded.

He continued: "However, His Majesty was afraid of the civil and military opposition of the dynasty, so he did not raise it, and I also listened to it, and the great general should seize the opportunity." "

"Thank you father-in-law."

Lin Xuan clenched his fists.

"You're welcome."

The old eunuch smiled and shook his head: "I can't say that there may be trouble for the great general in the future." "

"At that time, my father-in-law will only open his mouth, and I will respond to my own needs."

After receiving the promise, the old eunuch was quite satisfied, so he took the opportunity to tell Lin Xuan about many things in the court recently.

Like what

His righteous father Xu Xiao was impeached again, and the number of impeached officials was large, and the twists and turns were almost piled up into a hill.

Of course

Among them, some people impeached Lin Xuan, a general in Zhenbei, and supported the army with self-respect.

However, most of them were suppressed by the Son of Heaven.

"Qing'er, you go to the back kitchen and order them to prepare more good wine and dishes, and I want to have a drink with my father-in-law."

He waved his hand.

"'No..No.'"

Mu Qing'er left.

The old eunuch watched her back disappear, and his face turned solemn: "Great General, there are some things that our family should not have said."

But the general is so polite to our family, so today he will make an exception and say more. "

"Father-in-law, please say."

Lin Xuan's face also became solemn.

"This time I entered the DPRK, and two people were used as generals to obstruct it."

"Who?"

He frowned.

"Zhang Shoufu and the Iron Gall God Marquis."

The old eunuch said: "These two have repeatedly attacked the great general in the dynasty, and when they discussed rewards some time ago, it was the two of them who took the lead in contradicting His Majesty. "

"Having said that, the general should be more careful."

"Justice and righteousness."

Lin Xuan hugged his fist: "In the future, wherever it is useful to me, the father-in-law will send someone to inform me." "

Saying something good is not to sin people, nor to drop a piece of meat, but to earn personal favors.

As for the old eunuch who really found himself in the future, he had to wait for the price to be sold if he could not do it.

"If there are too many, our family can't say more."

The old eunuch said, "The great general will decide for himself." "

After chatting for a while, the wine and dishes were prepared, Lin Xuan led the old eunuch to the back hall, drank wine and ate food, and finally drunk the old eunuch before stopping.

"Help you down and rest."

He waved his hand, and two handmaids led him to the backyard room.

Inside the room

The fire was raging and steaming, and several staff members of the General's Office were there.

"The Son of Heaven let me enter Beijing, do you think you can go?"

"Must go."

Zhuge Qing said excitedly: "This kind of great opportunity must not be missed. "

"I think it's time to go too."

The prince brushed his beard and said leisurely: "With more than 100,000 iron riding in Yanzhou, the imperial court does not dare to make any small moves."

And this time, the Son of Heaven probably wanted to take the opportunity to study the general's mind. "

"If you don't go, not to mention the crime of resisting, you will also be suppressed by the imperial court."

"Yes."

Zhuge Qing nodded: "At present, Yanzhou is inseparable from the support of the imperial court, and the combination is two benefits, and the division is two evils." "

"Qing'er, what do you think?"

He looked at Mu Qing'er.

"Go."

After a little hesitation, she nodded slightly: "The world is not chaotic, and the prince must be attached to the wing of the imperial court." "

"Then go."

Lin Xuan said with a smile: "It just so happens that I haven't been to the (Nohao) capital for more than ten years, and General Ben took the opportunity to open his eyes." "

In fact, he had already made a decision in his heart

This trip to the capital must go

There is absolutely no reason not to go.

"After I leave, Yanzhou's affairs will be handled by Ziyuan, Zhuge Lord, Meng Jiao, and Qing'er."

"No."

Wang Qing's four people nodded in unison and hugged their fists: "Please rest assured, the general." "

With so many strategists and martial generals, it is enough to control the overall situation of Yanzhou.

After repelling the others, leaving Mengjiao and Wang Qing, and explaining many things, he gave up.

Three days later

Snowy morning

Lin Xuan left from Yanzhou City with the broken army and the forbidden army guards in the palace, all the way south, out of Qingyu Pass, towards the capital.

The snow in the New Year is still very heavy, splashing and overwhelming, and you can't see far, but the further south you go, the smaller the snow becomes.

Until out of the Qingzhou boundary, the snowflakes were sparse, but the weather was still very cold.

On the official road

The hundred people rode slowly, the forbidden army fluttered in the wind and snow, and Lin Xuan and the broken army rode in front.

The old eunuch could not stand the wind and cold, so he took the carriage, if not, the speed of the journey would be much faster.

Unlike now, you can only walk a hundred miles a day.

After passing through Qingzhou and entering Yanzhou, I walked for most of the month, and there were still hundreds of miles from the capital.

"This old eunuch is really verbose."

Seeing that it was getting dark, the old eunuch ordered to slow down and find a post station to rest.

The broken army looked indifferent, holding the mouth swallow knife in his hand, and cursed in a low voice.

Lin Xuan shook his head, did not speak, finally half moon passed, the cavalry finally arrived in the capital, overlooking this majestic city standing in the wind and snow, the banner was on display, and there were many soldiers.

Under the city gate, a group of black-armored soldiers were waiting in strict formation, and many figures could be faintly seen at the city gate.

It is the civil and military officials in the capital.

"It's a big battle."

Lin Xuan spoke.

A horse behind him carried a big rope, rushed out on horseback, and shouted in his mouth: "General Zhenbei has arrived." "

Carrying the big rope, go to the main gate of the capital.

After the forbidden sergeant, on the gorgeous chariot, a middle-aged man in a dragon robe was sitting on his chest.
