Chapter 85: Working as a farmer in the morning, ascending to the Emperor's Hall in the evening
After passing through the cold and cold outer city wall, passing through the dark and oppressive city gate, what comes to you is a lively scene.
Five thousand five hundred and fifty forbidden troops were stationed on both sides of the main road from the palace gate to the city gate.
After the Forbidden Army is the Guizhou capital that can't be seen at a glance, as if the whole city of Guizhou capital has gathered together.
As the soldiers and horses entered the city, Xianyang City instantly boiled!
"Is my baby back? Goudan! Where are you Goudan!"
"General, do you want to sell anything captured on the battlefield? We accept everything, and the price is definitely higher than in the military market!"
"What a mighty army, no wonder it was able to destroy Korea in one battle. My child, watch it and learn from it, and you will return triumphantly like them in the future!"
"Korea is dead, Ah Weng, have you seen it? Korea is dead! Da Qin has avenged you!"
"General, look here, a certain girl is fourteen years old, beautiful, good at riding and shooting, and proficient in writing. , What a good match! General, look here!”
Hearing someone calling General, Su Jiao subconsciously looked towards that person: "Old man, are you okay?"
The middle-aged man who was shouting happily was so happy when he heard Su Jiao's question. He closed his mouth and said repeatedly: "General, look at the daughter-in-law of a certain family, she is a good girl! She has reached the age of marriage, and she wants to find a good husband for her!"
Su Jiao looked behind the middle-aged man and saw a girl about 1.62 meters tall with skin as white as gelatin.
You can’t tell how old he is at this age.
But the height that is much higher than that of women of the same age has perfectly matched the aesthetics of the old Qin people, and the fair skin has touched the aesthetic point of Su Jiao, a member of the Shangdang.
The women from the frontier, who were not bound by Confucianism in the slightest, showed a confidence and cheerfulness that would be the envy of women for thousands of years to come.
Noticing Su Jiao's gaze, the woman smiled brightly, her bright eyes full of admiration for the hero.
At this moment, Su Jiao's heart was hit.
But in an instant, Su Jiao felt a deep sense of inferiority in his heart.
The Su Jiao family is not in difficulty, but it is definitely not wealthy.
In recent years, no one has talked to Su Jiao about matchmaking, but the targets of matchmaking are ordinary girls from ordinary families.
Su Jiao once wanted to marry the concubine of the Li Zheng family, but was ridiculed by the matchmaker for being overestimated.
This experience made Su Jiao subconsciously refuse: "Old man, I can't do it."
The middle-aged man laughed heartily: "I know, I am just a Wen Wuhai, you are He is the victorious Lord of the Five Hundred, how dare you be so high up on the general?”
“I would be very grateful if the general could introduce me to some elite men in the army!”
Su Jiao was stunned: "Are you trying to reach me?"
Wen Wuhai, also known as the fair official, is in charge of inspecting prisons, reviewing case files, and preventing unjust, false, and wrongful convictions. It is similar to the administrative review agency of later generations, Bili I don’t know how many times it’s higher!
Before the expedition, he was laughed at by everyone when he wanted to marry a concubine of the Li Zheng family.
Now, Wen Wuhai feels that by marrying his legitimate daughter to him, he is trying to outdo him? !
This strong contrast made Su Jiao feel a little dazed.
Suddenly, Jiang Ming's low voice came to his ears: "Brother Su, what are you doing?"
"You are the master of five hundred soldiers, and now you have fallen behind in the front ranks!"
>
"Now is the occasion of a triumphant return to the city, private chaos in the army, do you want to die?!"
Su Jiao came back to his senses, hurriedly thanked him and rushed to catch up.
But Su Jiao hesitated slightly before clamping the horse's belly, and still asked the middle-aged man loudly: "What do you call me?"
The middle-aged man hurriedly handed over his hand: "Xianyang County Wen Wuhai, Yun Yang, General I have troubled you so much, Yun will definitely thank you very much!"
Su Jiao turned around and handed over his hand: "I will remember it, general!"
Keeping this name firmly in mind, Su Jiao quickly returned to his position.
Looking at Su Jiao's distracted look, Yafu asked with a smile: "Which girl have you fallen in love with?"
Su Jiao's face suddenly turned red: "I No, I didn’t, don’t lie!”
Although Su Jiao is brave, he is only a sixteen-year-old boy after all, and he is still a bit thin-skinned when it comes to matters such as marriage.
Bafu smiled even happier: "Then it must be true."
"Tell me, whose girl is it?"
Su Jiao whispered awkwardly. : "It is said that he belongs to Wen Wuhai's family in Xianyang County."
Bafu slapped his mouth: "You are Wen Wuhai? His official position is a bit low."
Su Jiao's eyes widened: "That's a high-ranking official with a rank of 150 shi. How low is this?"
Yachifu chuckled and shook his head: "It's just a civil servant with a rank of 150 shi. , what is it?”
“In the Battle of Wancheng, you were awarded the title of 100 generals, and you were promoted to the rank of Noble.” “In the battle of Xinzheng, you were awarded the title of 500 generals, but the imperial court rejected the submission of the general. If you don’t change your title, you will get an official position of two hundred stones!”
"You are only sixteen years old this year, and you are still a soldier of the general. You have a lot of potential in the future!"
"What about the Wen Wuhai you mentioned? My daughter has reached the age of getting married, and he, as an old man, He must be in his thirties or forties, but he is still an official with a rank of one hundred and fifty stones. "Now, do you still think this marriage is a good match?"
< br>Bafu looked at the heads of Guizhou on both sides of the road, and said in a deep voice: "Go and feel the attitudes of these heads of Guizhou, and understand where you are now!"
Bafu's words and Yunyang's attitude The faces on both sides of the street that were filled with respect and admiration finally made Su Jiao realize that he was no longer the person he once was!
This made all the soldiers in the army clearly aware of this.
Why are their parents so eager for military glory that they even take the initiative to send their children to the battlefield?
Because on the battlefield, as long as you kill enough people, you can even be a farmhouse minister in the morning and ascend to the emperor's palace in the evening!
At this moment, no matter what their origins are, they have changed their lives against the odds!
Entering the palace gate from the city gate, the murderous aura on the army slowly subsided, replaced by high spirits and pride!
Standing outside the gate of Qilin Hall, overlooking the changes in the morale of the army, Ying Zheng shouted with satisfaction:
"Let's give a banquet!"
Hundreds of eunuchs and maidens walked quickly He ran out, and in an instant, tables and soft couches were placed in the square in front of the Qilin Hall.
Fine wine and delicacies were placed in luxurious bronze vessels in front of all the soldiers.
More than a thousand soldiers shouted: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Ying Zheng spoke again: "In this battle, all the soldiers will destroy Han in one battle, expand the territory of our Great Qin, and promote the prestige of our Great Qin!"
"Therefore, order!"
"Reward all three armies, All will receive a first-level achievement!”
“After drinking, the generals will be knighted!”
The soldiers looked up at Ying Zheng in shock.
They finally knew why Ying Zheng rejected the reward document submitted by Ying Chengxuan. It turned out that Ying Zheng was holding back his big move here!
What is the concept of adding the first level of merit?
For a killer like Su Jiao and a noble person like Feng Ting, this reward is insignificant.
But for soldiers with no military merit, this first level of merit can earn them the title of Duke.
Although it is only the lowest title, it is still a title!
They will officially transform from the nobles without titles to nobles with titles!
More than a thousand soldiers shouted loudly: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Ying Zheng smiled happily: "We, the Qin Dynasty, must reward those who have made merit and punish those who have made mistakes."
"You officers and men fought hard for the Qin Dynasty, I will not treat you badly!"
More than a thousand officers and men were so excited that they were almost shaking, and shouted at the top of their lungs:
"I am willing to die for the Qin Dynasty!"
Ying Zheng nodded with satisfaction, turned around and ordered: "Passport to the King of Han."
Zhao Gao shouted loudly: "Pass the King of Han to the peace!"
One The eunuchs relayed the news and their shouts were heard outside the palace.
After a while, Han An, wearing plain white linen clothes, appeared at the palace gate.
Under the gaze of the Qin monarchs, ministers and soldiers, Han An walked into the Qin Palace step by step, and bowed his hands under the steps of the Qilin Hall:
"Han An, the dead man of Korea."
"Greetings to the King of Qin."
Ying Zheng quickly walked down the stairs and returned the greeting with his hands raised: "Wang Zheng of Qin, I have met the King of Han."
"I would like to invite the King of Han to take a seat and please enjoy it." Let me sing and dance in Da Qin.”
Han An looked troubled: "King An of Han has passed away, and the only one left in the world is Han An."
"How qualified is Han An to be at the top of Xianyang Palace?"
Ying Zheng smiled Unabated, he looked at Han An with a dangerous look: "Even a humble man, can't he bring King Han back to life?"
