Chapter 10: The Third Section of the Great General's Mansion in the Central Plains. A group of little boys are shouting by the Jinshui River, holding sticks of different lengths in their hands, led by a little girl

"Attacking" the embankment. There are also a few small children on the embankment, they

"Parry" couldn't stop, and was beaten in a blink of an eye

"Deserted and fled". The little girl at the head grabbed a white-looking little boy, raised her hand and gave him a few sticks, and then pushed him down the embankment with all her might.

The little boy screamed in fright, rolled all the way and fell directly into the river, splashing everywhere. A group of children saw that something was happening, and they scattered and ran along the grass towards the hillside.

"Auntie, aunt, the little tiger fell into the river, the little tiger fell into the river." A three-year-old boy rushed to the eldest princess and shouted breathlessly,

"Sister Xiu'er beat Brother Xiaohu into the river." The eldest princess sat on the seat and looked up into the distance,

"Really? Did your Xiu'er sister win again? ”

"She's amazing." The little boy shook his big black head, his eyes widened, and exclaimed in a very exaggerated manner,

"Brother Xiaohu is beaten so badly by Sister Xiu'er every time. Today he is going home crying again. Hey......" The little boy sighed helplessly like an adult,

"Fortunately, I'm with Sister Xiu'er's family, otherwise I would have been beaten to the ground." The eldest princess and Mrs. Xiaoyu burst out laughing at the little boy's expression.

"Wen'er, go and have a look." Mrs. Xiaoyu pointed to a quiet little girl sitting beside her and said,

"You take Xiaohu to change his clothes. It's cold, don't get cold. Wen'er obediently agreed, and was about to get up from the seat, when the little boy rushed over, took the little girl's hand and ran,

"Big sister, I'll take you, I'll take you."

"Your Majesty......" Wen'er was pulled to the ground by the little boy, and hurriedly shouted,

"Slow down, slow down."

"Hurry, hurry, Brother Xiaohu must be eating mud, hurry......" Xiao Tianzi was so anxious that he screamed and jumped, dragged and dragged Wen'er, and ran away.

The children around them followed the two of them.

"You are so lively here, no wonder Your Majesty is clamoring to come here to play for three days." The eldest princess looked at the group of happy children on the grass, and said to Xiaoyu with a smile,

"Does your Xiu'er often bully Xiaohu? Sister Wen Ji is not happy? Xiaoyu smiled bitterly,

"My family's show...... How good it would be if she were a boy, and when she grew up in the future, she would be able to fight all over the world like her father, but it's a pity ......" Xiaoyu shook her head regretfully,

Of course Wen Ji was heartbroken. How can your child not be heartbroken when his nose and face are swollen? Once, the prime minister was so angry that he came to me in person......"

"Prime Minister...... "The eldest princess's eyes widened in surprise,

"The Prime Minister still has the kung fu to take care of the children's affairs?"

"The prime minister has only one daughter and two precious grandchildren, of course, he is extremely doting."

"The Prime Minister scolded you?" Xiaoyu smiled embarrassedly. The more the eldest princess thought about it, the more incredible she felt, and her smile was like a flower.

"This show of your family is to be managed. By the way, I heard Your Majesty say that your Xiu'er is most afraid of the big tiger of General Tiger's family, isn't it? ”

"The kid from Lord Yan's family is tall and big, and ten Xiu'er can't beat him. But the kid was like his father, taciturn, and his hands were heavy, and if he annoyed him, he would be beaten severely. Xiu'er suffered a few losses, and then stopped playing with him. Xiaoyu sighed,

"Xiu'er, this kid...... Special circumstances...... Her mother can't help her, so it's even harder for me to say. But she's really old and needs to be disciplined well, so ......"

"Let her enter the palace and read it to Your Majesty." The eldest princess said,

"I see that Xiu'er is very tame every time she goes to the palace, and His Majesty likes her very much, so it's better to let them study together." Xiaoyu was stunned for a moment, looking quite embarrassed, obviously unwilling to let Xiu'er enter the palace to accompany her.

The eldest princess smiled gradually, looked at Xiaoyu and asked softly, "Did the general let you take the child to the Central Plains together?" Xiaoyu nodded,

"Both children are five years old, but the time the general has been with them is too short, probably not even a year. Recently, he has been in poor health, and if he hadn't met Master Huatuo in the Central Plains this time, he would probably have ...... My child and I would like to go and see him, please ...... Your Highness."

"Sister......" The eldest princess suddenly grabbed Xiaoyu's hand and said emotionally,

"Sister, don't go, okay? You're gone, I'm alone in Jinyang, very lonely, and I don't even have anyone to talk to. ”

"Your Highness...... I ......" Xiaoyu still wanted to insist, but the eldest princess shook her head resolutely,

"I'm not going to let my sister go. I personally wrote to the general, and I want to leave you behind. The general is accompanied by Sister Fengxue, so it should be fine. When the general recovers Luoyang, we will go back together and ...... in the future" The eldest princess leaned into Xiaoyu's ear and whispered,

"In the future, we will have a long, long time with the Great General every day." Xiaoyu's heart suddenly contracted, and the strong feeling of suffocation made her almost breathless, and an inexplicable fear and uneasiness invaded her delicate body in an instant.

The eldest princess's soft cheeks were lightly glued to Xiaoyu's fragrant hair, and the beautiful voice came into Xiaoyu's ears like a heavenly fairy song.

"Sister, promise me, right?" In mid-October, Yanzhou Dingtao, the general lined. The Son of Heaven decreed that the soldiers of the army should be rewarded.

The Great Sima, the Great General, and the Marquis of Jinyang, Li Hong, increased the number of food estates to 10,000. Turning to the general of the left guard, Xian Yufu became the general of the left chariot cavalry, and the number of restaurants increased to 6,000.

Xu Rong, the former general and lieutenant, was appointed as the general of the right chariot cavalry, and the number of food estates increased to 4,000. Worship the left general Lu Yi as the general of the left guard, and the number of food estates increased to 4,000.

Zhang Yan, the right general and Guangluxun, was the general of the right guard, and the number of restaurants increased to 4,000. Turning to General Fenwei and Weiwei Lu Bu as the former general, Wuwei General Yu Shi as the rear general, Hu Lie General Yan Liang as the left general, Yang Feng, the general of the Zhenjun Army, as the right general, Yan Rou, the general of Zhenbei, as the general of Zhenbei, and Zhao Yun, the general of Longxiang, as the general of Longxiang, were all given the marquis of the county, and the number of food was increased to 2,000 households.

More than a dozen generals such as Xian Yuyin, Pang De, Hua Xiong, Jiang Wu, and Wei Jun were each promoted to one level, and they were all given the title of marquis and 1,000 households.

Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, Li Su, Lei Chong and other Zhonglang generals were all worshiped as generals at all levels, and were given the title of Pavilion Marquis and 500 food towns.

The rest of the generals of all sizes were promoted to one level, and the rank was 2,000 stones, and the officials rewarded 15 acres of land. The rank of a thousand stone officials appreciates the ten acres of fields.

The rank is less than 600 stones, and the officials appreciate the eight acres of fields. The rank of 300 stone or less is rewarded by the officials who enjoy the fields for six hectares. According to the size of the merit, ordinary soldiers will be rewarded with five to three hectares of land.

The bereavement of the fallen soldiers is paid twice as much as the reward of the same rank. At that time, the duties of the officials of each prefecture and county were 15 hectares of Thorn History, 10 hectares of Taishou, 8 hectares of high-level officials such as Zhizhong, Beijia, Changshi, and Sima, and 6 hectares of officials such as county commanders and county officials.

In other words, the income of six hectares of land for a year is the entire income of a county order for a year, and the imperial court rewarded ordinary soldiers with five to three hectares of land at one time, and its reward can be described as extremely generous.

(In ancient times, fifty acres was one hectare, and now one hundred acres is one hectare.) The great general Li Hong, the left guard general Lu Yi, the later general Yushi, the left general Yan Liang and others were pleasantly surprised, and thanked the Son of Heaven and the eldest princess on the one hand, and urgently told the soldiers of all departments on the other.

In a short period of time, in the camp of the Northern Xinjiang Army on the battlefield of the Central Plains, there was thunderous cheering,

The cry of "Hurrah ......" was earth-shattering. Along with the decree were two letters from the eldest princess and Mrs. Xiaoyu.

Mrs. Xiaoyu told the general about the situation at home, and then explained the reason why she could not go south to accompany the general.

There are many generals' families in Jinyang, and they have been separated from their relatives for a long time, such as Xian Yufu's family, Yan Wuxing, Tie Yue, Lei Zi's wife, and Pang De's wife, they are all like me, looking forward to reuniting with their relatives who are far away in the border area.

Now that the wind and snow have reached your side, if I take the child to the Central Plains again, it will have a very bad impact on Jinyang, which is not good for the prestige of the general, and even worse for the military spirit of the army, so I can't go south to accompany you.

Xiaoyu's letter was very long, and he said a lot of things to the general. Wen'er is quiet and beautiful, very endearing, and Sister Wenji has accepted her as a disciple and taught her piano skills.

Xiu'er is still so naughty and ignorant, and she fights with a bunch of boys, causing a lot of trouble and jokes.

A while ago, she always played with Yan Ba, the son of General Yan Liang, and made Yan Ba mess around, Yan Ba was angry and angry with her

"Break up". At this time, she was united with General Zhao Yun's eldest son, Zhao Tong

"Enemy", often with a group of brothers and sisters and Zhao Tong

"Fighting", if he wins, he will force Zhao Tong to eat mud. The Prime Minister was very angry about this, and he had already come to the door twice, which embarrassed me.

A few days ago, I took her to Zitai (Tian Chou)'s house, and Mrs. Zhen had just given birth to an eight-pound fat boy for Zitai.

Xiu'er saw that the baby was cute, and even took advantage of the time when we didn't pay attention to it, and put the baby

"Stole" it out, causing the whole Tianfu chickens to fly and dogs jump. Do you know where she took the baby? She took her to the palace and played with His Majesty all morning.

Fortunately, Master Xu Shao, who was teaching, found out later, and he hurriedly sent the child back to Tianfu. Big brother, do you know how humiliated I am?

The eldest princess was very angry and forced Her Majesty and Xiu'er to go to Tianfu to admit their mistakes. Big brother, Xiaoxue is not here, I can't control this child at all, I'm going to mad her.

However, Xiu'er's life is good, very good. When Lord Xu Shao sent the child back to Tianfu, I begged Lord Xu Shao to discipline Xiu'er well, and tentatively asked Xiu'er about her life.

Lord Xu Shao said that the secret of heaven must not be leaked. When Lord Xu Shao said this, his eyes narrowed together with a smile, and he looked excited, and he could see at a glance that Xiu'er would definitely be rich and noble in the future.

Lord Xu Shao also asked me to send Wen'er to the palace to accompany her, saying that Xiu'er has too many fancy ideas, except for her sister, I'm afraid no one can control her.

Your Majesty has been with her for a long time, and her heart may become tyrannical, and Your Majesty needs a quiet girl like Wen'er to accompany her.

I didn't agree at the time, but the next day the eldest princess went to the house and took Wen'er away, and asked His Majesty to worship Sister Wenji as a teacher, and let Sister Wenji go to the palace to teach.

This time the Central Plains was victorious, and His Majesty and the eldest princess rewarded a lot of money. I gave some of them to the Martyrs' Terrace and asked them to renovate the Martyrs' Terrace.

He also took out a part of the entrustment to Lord Wang Ze and gave it to Lu Longsai. We haven't been back for a long time, and there are a lot of deceased relatives and friends there to pay respects to.

In addition, many old ministers in the DPRK and China are not in good health, so I went to each house on your behalf. Boss Zhao Qi's ears are gone, and he needs to lean around him to shout loudly.

However, the old man has a good complexion, and it is not a problem to live a hundred years old. He said that when you hit Luoyang, he would go back with His Majesty and carry the coffin back.

After Boss Cui Lie suffered a stroke, his health became worse and worse, and now his memory is almost gone, and he doesn't know me anymore.

The old man's rheumatism is getting worse and worse. If you have the opportunity to meet Master Huatuo, please take a little time out of your busy schedule to come to Jinyang.

It's so painful, it's heart-wrenching. Mr. Chen Ji is terminally ill, and his days are numbered.

He told me that his only wish was to see the Son of Heaven return to Luoyang. I don't know if he can wait until that day.

I also went to the homes of Ma Riyan, Zhang Wen, Lu Zhi, Zhu Jun, and Huangfu Song, and each of them gave generous gifts.

On the New Year's Day, as is customary, I will send them another gift on your behalf. Lord Lu Zhi's son Lu Yu has grown up, Lord Cui Yan first recruited him as the lord of Taiyuan Mansion, and this year he was recruited by Lord Prime Minister as the history of the Fa Cao Decree, and his family situation has been greatly improved.

Lord Lu Zhi has such an outstanding son, and he should be very pleased to be in the Heavenly Spirit. I will give the rest of the reward to the families of the fallen generals.

Although the families of some fallen generals are not in Jinyang, I try my best to send them to their homes.

Over the past ten years, hundreds of thousands of soldiers who have followed you to fight in all directions have died, and every time I see these orphans and widows who wash their faces with tears, I feel very uncomfortable.

I hope that you can calm the world as soon as possible and keep this bloody killing away from the world. A few days ago, the wife of Lord Zhuangjie Hou Fu arrived at the house.

She said that recently, many people have come to the house to propose marriage to Yancai (Fu Gan). She was dazed and didn't know what to do.

I asked carefully, and the people who proposed to Yancai were all Gaomen families, including the Cui family in Jizhou, the Wei family in Hedong, the Sima family in Hanoi, the Wang family and the Guo family in Taiyuan, the Ma family and the Zhao family in Guanzhong, the Yang family in Guanxi, the Chen family and the Han family in Yingchuan, and the Yuan family and the Xu family in Runan.

None of these Mrs. Fu could afford to offend, so she panicked and ran to me to ask for an idea. I'm also a little flustered.

The reason why the marriage of Zitai (Tian Chou) was postponed again and again was also for this reason, and the people who came to propose marriage were all from the gate valve family, and whoever they married would offend a large area.

If it weren't for the fact that you found a fairy-like Zhen family beauty for Zitai in Jizhou the year before last, I would have died of worry, but I didn't expect Yancai to encounter the same thing.

In these dozen families, I heard that the three girls of the Hedong Wei family, the Hanoi Sima family and the Guanxi Yang family are very good.

Of course, if you can find a better family for Yancai, then everyone will be happy. I want to see you earlier, I want to be by your side all the time, and I am eager for you to get to Luoyang as soon as possible and meet you in the capital.

The eldest princess complained about the general in a letter. You have already left Sister Fengxue by your side, why do you want to pick up Sister Xiaoyu from Jinyang as well?

Can you bear to leave me alone in Jinyang? I'm alone in Jinyang, and I don't even have a confidant to talk to, which may make me lose my mind and do very terrible things like last time.

Sister Xiaoyu was left behind by me, if you want to blame me, blame me. If you want to meet Sister Xiaoyu early, take Luoyang as soon as possible, and we'll see you in Luoyang.

Also, you have to pay attention to your body and don't fall down again. Last time you fell, I just took the opportunity to go to the desert to recruit Hu Qi to go south, which is a great favor for you, this time if you fall again, you will stay in Jinyang honestly for me, and don't go anywhere.

Don't talk about war, I won't let you go even hunting, and I won't let you ride a war horse. After reading Xiaoyu's letter, the general felt very warm in his heart, and after reading the eldest princess's letter, he couldn't help but laugh.

She even dared to write this kind of thing in the letter, and let the eight hundred miles be sent by horse, and her courage became bigger and bigger.

"What did Your Highness write in your letter?" Feng Xue saw Li Hong secretly having fun alone with the letter written by the eldest princess in white silk, and couldn't help but smile and ask,

"Isn't she to you...... What's ...... Denote? ”

"No, no." Li Hong flatly denied it,

"Look at it if you don't believe it." He handed the letter to Fengxue. Recently, Li Hong stayed in Xingyuan during the day, and returned to the post house in the city at night to accompany the wind and snow, and lived a peaceful and happy life.

Fengxue's mood is much better, the complexion on his face is gradually ruddy, and his smile is more.

"Can I see it?" Fengxue frowned and asked with a smile,

"It's a secret."

"It's not confidential, it's a private letter, just like Xiaoyu's letter to us." Li Hong said with a smile,

"Do you want me to read it to you?"

"Forget it, forget it." Fengxue took the white silk under his nose and sniffed hard,

"It's so fragrant...... Li Hong shook his head with a smile, and reached out to hold Fengxue into his arms,

"It would be nice if Xiaoyu could come, and our family could spend the New Year together."

"Isn't Sister Xiaoyu coming?" Fengxue looked at Li Hong in surprise and asked in disappointment,

"Your Highness doesn't allow it?" Li Hong buried his head in the golden hair of the wind and snow, took a deep breath, and was intoxicated.

"It would be nice if Xiu'er's hair was blonde like you."

"Not good, not at all." Feng Xue reached out to hug Li Hong's head, leaned over his ear and whispered,

"Everywhere she goes, people will say that she is a Hu person, not a Han person." Li Hong's heart suddenly ached.
