After returning home, Tang Ning thought carefully for a while, and felt that he should be mentioned by Zhao Xu to the two positions of secretary of the military department or deputy envoy of the Privy Council.

Both of these are important positions with great power, otherwise Zhao Xu would not have said that his door would be broken down.

However, two days later, when Tang Ning put this matter aside and turned his head to discuss with Wang Shi about when to marry Pei Xiantong and enter the door, a group of people came outside beating gongs and drums.

They were all envoys sent by Zhao Xu, and even led by Zeng Bu himself.

Tang Ning heard the wind and hurriedly went out to greet him. After seeing Zeng Bu, he said very frightenedly: "Why is the privy envoy here in person, come and come, please come into the house and sit down and have a cup of tea." ”

Zeng Bu was helped by Tang Ning to turn over from the horse, and then stroked his beard with his hand and said with a smile: "Tang Ning, today is your good day, the official family specially sent this envoy over."

The hard work you have made in Jiaozhi is obvious to all in the world. In the past, when the envoy was sent by the government to do this kind of thing, he was somewhat reluctant in his heart.

But if the object is you, the envoy is willing! ”

Tang Ning said with a smile: "The privy envoy has a good reputation, and the victory of the Jiaozhi War has little to do with Tang, and it should be the officers and soldiers in the army who really make great contributions."

Tang just played a role of icing on the cake, and he deserved such praise from the privy envoy. ”

Zeng Bu shook his head and said: "Your kid is a little too modest, if you don't do a good job of preventing the epidemic in advance, I'm afraid that the soldiers will not be able to hold on to the day of victory, and they will be tormented by the epidemic."

Moreover, you commanded and dispatched the army in a good way, and at a very low cost, you recovered Guangyuan Prefecture, which can be said to be a great achievement.

Not to mention that after this, you sent a surprise army to attack Thang Long Mansion, captured Li Deqian, and captured tens of thousands of loot.

You should be the first to take the lead, and there is no need to talk about it. ”

While speaking, the two of them had already arrived in the front hall of the Tang Mansion. Wang Shi didn't come out, she tossed too late last night, she got up early today, and she didn't have time to dress up.

Under such circumstances, Wang Shi resolutely refused to meet outsiders, so only Qi Xianyu, who had already finished freshening up, sat with him.

Tang Ning invited Zeng Bu to take a seat, and the maid came up to pour tea for Zeng Bu.

Although Qi Xianyu's official identity is a concubine, no one who knows the special situation of the Tang Mansion will treat Qi Xianyu or Liu Yier as concubines.

smiled and nodded at Qi Xianyu as if he had said hello, and Zeng Bu sat down.

Tang Ning then continued on the topic: "Having said that, if there were no soldiers who took the lead, Tang would not have been able to do these two things even if he had three heads and six arms.

So in the final analysis, it is the soldiers who really make the contributions. It has little to do with Tang, the commander. ”

Zeng Bu smiled and said, "Make a contribution."

Who is the laborer, you say it doesn't count, and the old man doesn't count. Only those who say above can be counted.

Today you should have been summoned to the palace and rewarded at the court meeting. But today's court meeting was a little unpleasant, and the officials were furious and were recuperating.

However, your bounty has been delayed for a few days and cannot be delayed any longer. So the official family sent an old man to reward you on behalf of the official family. ”

Speaking of this, Zeng Bu stood up, took out a scroll of holy decrees from his sleeve, cleared his throat and said loudly: "Tang Mingyuan listens to the decree!" ”

Tang Ning was stunned for a moment, he didn't know he had so many titles. But he still said: "Weichen took the order." ”

At the same time, the maids and servants around him, including the people from the palace, and Qi Xianyu all made long movements in unison.

"Under the door.

I have been soothed by martial arts to appease all nations, and faith and reward are to encourage the masses.

The talent of the generals is important in ancient and modern. The general protector of the generals, repeatedly played the skin.

The words of the birthday and the gift of the return of the tin labor.

Liangzhejiang Road Jiedu Observation Stay, Zhengfeng Doctor, Guangnan East and West Road Xuanfu Envoy, Zhenguo Army Ma Bujun Commander Envoy, Shanzhou Regiment Training Envoy, Guangyuan Prefecture Observation Envoy, Neike Provincial Envoy, Shangqing Car Lieutenant Tang Ning.

Straight solemn, generous and peaceful. The instrument is large and tolerant, and the plan is far-reaching and deterministic.

The strategy is deep, and the material is sensitive. Loyal and pure, Ya pushes the goodness of the heart. Wise and brave, he has been a minion for a long time.

The prestige is in the vulgar, and the sincerity is simple in the heart.

There is the skin of the public who expands the territory, and there is the plan of the country and the people.

than the general commanded, all over the border. When you don't hesitate, you don't have to worry about it.

Words are true.

In and out of the strategy, vertical and horizontal.

A hundred miles a day to open up the frontier, the new city is lined up. The third day of the month was captured and the enemy was annihilated. Recruit people to flee and punish treacherous corrections.

The head of the thief is a foregone conclusion, and the truce is stopped. The thief was returned to show kindness.

Serve the division of the king, and win the law of the soldiers. And the ability to follow the calculation, do not make mistakes.

There was a time when the public appeased the party, and Chen Ping was slandered by Jin. The good generals of the ancients, how can they be added?

It can be specially awarded the Yinqing Guanglu doctor, the Zhonghu Army, the left leader of the army General Wei, the general of the left Jin Wuwei, the Liangzhejiang Road Observation Envoy, the Hexi Jingdong Xuanfu Envoy, and the founding marquis of Danyang County, 2,800 households in Shiyi, and 600 households in Shishi.

The job is the same. ”

Zeng Bu read for a long time with a subdued tone, and Tang Ning was stunned when he heard it.

First of all, he couldn't understand a word of the words that had nothing to do with his official position, and secondly, he didn't know when so many titles were installed on his head.

Secondly, Zhao Xu actually made himself a marquis, which is a great honor.

The maids and servants kept their ears pricked up and eavesdropping, listening to their own homes

The lord was made a marquis, and he was ecstatic in his heart.

But outsiders are still at home, and they can't show it either. I could only hold back my excitement and prepare to wait for someone to leave before starting the carnival.

Tang Ning was still stunned, but Qi Xianyu was not much surprised. Gently hooking the corners of his mouth, Qi Xianyu thought very proudly in his heart, the men who can make themselves willing to commit themselves to him must be excellent, and the marquis is only the most basic.

Zeng Bu couldn't help but laugh out loud when he saw Tang Ning's petrified expression. After putting away the holy decree, Zeng Bucai cleared his throat and said, "Tang Mingyuan, still don't thank you?" ”

Tang Ning reacted at this time, and hurriedly said: "Weichen has thanked Your Majesty for your grace!" ”

As soon as the words fell, people from the palace outside began to beat gongs and drums again. Someone at the gate immediately replaced the plaque written by Zhao Xu, which used to be called Tang Mansion, and it should be called Danyang Hou Mansion in the future.

In the sound of gongs and drums, Zeng Bu handed over the holy decree to Tang Ning, and then laughed and arched his hand: "Congratulations, even if the old man sees you in the future, he will call you Danyang Hou."

Alas, what a young hero. With such a high achievement at such a young age, the future of Danyang Hou can be said to be immeasurable.

As long as you don't go the wrong way, you will be a great minister, and the day of grace will be just around the corner. ”

Tang Ning shook his head and smiled bitterly: "What the privy envoy said, Tang Mou never prepared for the days when he was a supreme minister and received all his grace from the beginning. If it weren't for the official family's favor to me, today's Tang may still be living a plain life in Runzhou.

To be honest, that kind of life is what Tang yearns for the most. ”

Zeng Bu nodded with satisfaction, no matter what kind of mental activity Tang Ning said this, at least he gave a satisfactory answer.

If he had been tempted just now and he had taken him down the slope to get off the donkey, he would not have opened the door for this person in the future.

Now it seems that although he is already in a high position, he is still not surprised. This made Zeng Bu sigh, he was worthy of being a disciple trained by a master in the world, and when he spoke and did things, he had a clean and dusty taste.

Then Zeng Bu resigned on the grounds that there was still political affairs to deal with, and Tang Ning tried hard to keep him for lunch, but Zeng Bu still refused.

After sending Zeng Bu away, Tang Ning sent a lot of silver to each of these people from the palace, and everyone smiled happily, and after lunch, they returned happy.

When everyone was gone, the maids and servants cheered.

Their own lord has become a marquis, which is an honor for them. As the so-called one person ascends to heaven, the treatment of the servants in the Hou Ye's family must be much better than before.

Even if the treatment is the same, when you go out and meet someone else's servant, you can talk about the sky on both sides, and you can pat your chest and say that I am from the Danyang Hou Mansion, and I am a dog who works under the hands of the Danyang Hou.

In this way, it can also give them something to brag about, right?
