Chapter 36: The Divisions of the Generals
Kyoto has fallen, and Aiko never imagined in her life that it would be like this to return to Kyoto again.
The empire of the Xu family is like a cherry blossom in full bloom, which withered and ended in just one night. That man was like a raging typhoon, and it seemed that he swept away the Xu family's century-old family business very lightly.
Aiko slowly climbed onto the double bridge, and the bridge deck made of solid stone was still strong. These stones were all brought from Jeondongying, and many of them have the marks of the prefectural road on them. She couldn't remember how many times she had crossed the bridge, and the clear water was still flowing beneath it. But quietly, the palace has changed owners.
At the age of five, she crossed the stone bridge for the first time. That's because she was going to worship Amaterasu, and at the age of fifteen, she crossed the stone bridge again. That time, she was followed by a long line. She married her husband, Yiqingmi, and since then she has rarely crossed the bridge.
Memories are like a tide that has used the heart of my son, stopping at the bridge to remember his past.
"Hurry up, don't let Hou Ye wait!" The guard brutally interrupted Aiko's thoughts, and the loud shouts made Aiko tremble. This made her re-recognize her identity, a princess of the previous dynasty and a prisoner of war of the Han people.
The palace is still the same palace, with a green tiled roof, white walls and brown copper pillars. But he has changed from the master to the prisoner, and the tall Fushimi Yakura stands next to the palace gate. As if to sue her, the self-proclaimed family did not choose the final battle but surrendered on its knees.
Aiko's heart was full of sorrow and he walked into the heavy palace gate, lined with black-armored samurai. Wearing hideous masks, they looked like hellish ghosts as they walked by.
Huayin Pavilion, Waterfall Pavilion, Frost Brocade Pavilion, Tea Room. The Imperial Spirit Palace, the Treasure Palace, the Divine Temple, Aiko looked at the intact halls and felt a desolation in his heart. Why don't you resist, could it be that the descendants of Amaterasu have lost their blood?
Where Emperor Matsunokaku summoned his ministers, it was the devil-like man sitting in it now. The moon-white kaftan covered the top of the feet. A large pearl was embedded in the dark belt. This black and white dress brings out his evil spirit even more, and there is some evil spirit that makes him fascinated.
Seeing that there were still several black-armored generals talking to Yun Xiao inside, Aiko knelt on the wooden floor of the corridor obediently. To be a captive is to have the consciousness of being a captive, and this Aiko still understands.
Dai Yu's arm was still wrapped in bandages, and his injured body could not wear armor, but could only wear a satin gown. The bun is fixed to the purple gold crown with a hosta, and it looks dignified.
"The king of the courtyard is very deferential, and he will see his soldiers living outside the city at the end of yesterday. It had rained for the past two days, and it was difficult for them to stay in tents outside the city. Hou Ye. I think it's better to have a bigger reward. After all, they also contributed to the attack on Kyoto, and favoring one over the other would make the newly attached Dayuan Jun complain. ā
Dai Yu is the future governor of Dongying, so he naturally thinks about the harmony of his territory. Perhaps because of the relationship between the same general, his relationship with Dayuanjun is also closer.
"What are you afraid of in the rain, my mother heard that they went into the city and wanted the people to ask for some ransom money. These birdmen can rob more than Lao Tzu. We have laid down so many places, and there is no such thing as a ransom fee. "Little Bear doesn't have the slightest affection for Dayuan-kun who once gave him painful memories. In his heart, these people should belong to the wave that was severely attacked. It is already a great gift not to destroy them physically. How dare you ask for a reward?
"Little bear, people should be rewarded for their efforts. Merit is not rewarded, but there is a punishment. In this way, the morale of the army will be uneasy. Dai Yu obviously disagreed with Xiao Xiong's opinion, but he said it politely for the sake of face.
"Yes, Little Bear, I also contributed to the Kyoto Courtyard-kun. I know you're careful, but you were your own master at the beginning. Don't keep holding on to your pigtails. ā
"Fourth uncle, why are you ......?"
Xiao Xiong was quite surprised by the goshawk's elbow turning outward, and according to his understanding, the fourth uncle should support his nephew at this time.
"Forget it, don't make noise! Rewarded. There are penalties. This is the rule of our family to win all battles, and attacking Kyoto Dayuanjun can be regarded as doing our best. He has merit in this matter, and since he has merit, he will be rewarded. I didn't call you here to make you quarrel, but to let you discuss how you should be rewarded. ā
Yun Xiao interrupted Xiao Xiong's words, this kid was not lightly hit in Shimonoseki. I think I also have a deep grudge against the courtyard king. Looking at him like this, he definitely can't get along peacefully with Dayuanjun. It seems that he will have to stay in Dawang City in peace in the future, and Dongying's affairs will have to be handed over to Dai Yu.
"Master Hou, Dongying's business is still very fragile. Gold and silver are not in circulation, and the rewards of gold and silver are not very popular with the soldiers. There is much grain in the granaries of this great king, so if you give them food. These soldiers were farmers in peacetime and soldiers in wartime. It is far more desirable to give them food than to give them some money. ā
"Well, Master Hou. I went out of the city to see the soldiers of the Courtyard King, and their weapons and armor were all brought by themselves. Even some people have to bring their own food, and a lot of food is consumed after these days of fighting. Now that we have cut off their plundering path, it is still necessary to give them some food. ā
The little bear pouted on the side and didn't speak, and Dai Yu and the goshawk built a yƬ to Yun Xiao.
"Kyoto is also abundant in grain, and Dayuan-kun said that Kyoto's grain storage can last more than a year. Ben Hou didn't seem to be false, so why don't you give them some rice.
Each soldier was rewarded with 200 catties of rice, and the wounded were rewarded with 100 catties. The dead are added to 200 catties, but the current capacity is insufficient. They need to be transported by themselves. ā
"Since Master Hou rewarded them, naturally they got it back by themselves. As for whether to carry it back or find a car to pull it back, it is up to them to do anything to us. ā
Yun Xiao glanced at the bear, this kid is a strong seed. It seems that we have to find an opportunity to bridge the relationship between the new generals, otherwise they will be in a dilemma when they make trouble?
"What should Prince Li's water army be, Ben Hou wants to recruit these water army. What do you think? ā
"Master Hou, the Dongying Water Army is indeed brave and good at fighting. However, the last general heard that these naval forces were only the prince of Li, and without his cooperation, it may not be easy for the naval army to surrender. If you want to recruit the rain army, you must first recruit the Prince of Surrender. ā
The last general believes that it is because these people are brave and good at fighting that they must be destroyed. Let these people become bigger, and in the future, it may endanger the safety of the shipping route between the peninsula and Dongying. ā
It seems that Dai Yu has a problem with Xiao Xiong, and he refuses to let go of people who have caused harm to him. (Want to know more exciting news about "Han Xiong"?)
