Chapter 693 Rewarded

Less than half an hour after Zian returned to the mansion, the reward from the palace came.

This is not a reward from the empress dowager, but from the emperor.

Because, Murong Jie had already rushed back to Beijing first, reporting the good news he brought back from Beimo.

Beimo and Dazhou have officially ceased fighting. This is really great news for the emperor.

At the same time, they also received good news from Prince An, and the army won an overwhelming victory against Xianbei with a destructive momentum.

Xianbei surrendered, and got the certificate of surrender, and later became a subsidiary state of Dazhou, paying tribute every year, and never dared to speak again.

The Xianbei people are cunning, and they never dare to say anything, the emperor naturally doesn't believe it, but it is indeed worth being happy to get rid of Xianbei.

Xianbei's big defeat this time was due to the lack of morale in the army.

Because Xianbei teamed up with Beimo to capture Dazhou before, but Chu Jing played a good trick, and he didn't communicate with Xianbei before. Xianbei thought that Chu Jing was really defeated and could no longer resist Dazhou. They thought, Beimo If Mo loses his ability to fight, Dazhou must do his best to deal with Xianbei. Xianbei is only a small country, how can it resist Dazhou's iron cavalry?

Psychologically, he lost a layer first. In addition, Prince An used his troops like a god, and he arrived at the front line five days earlier than expected, forcing Xianbei to retreat every step of the way. Finally, Prince An's troops approached the city. Time to discuss and quickly surrender.

Xianbei is also a nation that can bend and stretch. There are loopholes to take advantage of. If you shoot a few shots, but you can't beat them, you surrender, and you don't suffer anyway.

If the main combat faction led by Chu Jing is a bad wolf, then Xianbei is a cunning weasel who occasionally comes to steal a chicken and doesn't make a big fuss. It has always been like this before. Da Zhou lost a chicken and felt It's not a big deal, and I didn't go to catch the weasel with great fanfare, but it's always like a dog's skin plaster, and I can't get rid of it no matter what. This time, Prince An caught the weasel on the spot. At least, Da Zhou's chicken coop, this time Two years is safe.

The emperor got two great news, Long Yan was very happy, and before Murong Jie returned to Beijing, he rewarded a batch of them first.

Naturally, a batch was also rewarded to Prince An's mansion. When Prince An was not in the mansion, they suppressed them first and sent them over when he came back.

The emperor's move also inspired the people, who all praised the emperor's way of governing, and expressed great confidence in the royal family's harmony.

Naturally, the rumors of the past few days have also been quelled. A few days ago, there were so-called prescient people among the people who said that if Murong Jie made great achievements and returned to the court this time, the emperor must be afraid of his great achievements and try to weaken his prestige. At that time, the people Then he was faintly worried, fearing that the external chaos would stop and the internal chaos would start again.

Now, the emperor's move has stabilized the hearts of many people, and also the hearts of some courtiers who originally supported the regent.

However, some people who have seen it clearly are still faintly worried.

I am worried that the emperor's move is to paralyze the prince first, and wait for the prince to be arrogant before picking his faults.

After returning from meritorious service, and receiving such overwhelming favor, who wouldn't be inflated?

Not long after the emperor's reward came, the empress dowager's reward also came.

The empress dowager's reward was rather wonderful.

Three bolts of plain brocade silk and satin, it is said that the princess is still in mourning, and the clothes of the princess are too colorful, so the plain silk and satin are specially given to the princess to make some clothes.

Three white jade hairpins inlaid with silver dots and emeralds were said to be too luxurious for the princess to wear during mourning, so a few simple ornaments were specially given to the princess to attend various occasions.

Three Buddhist scriptures, one Diamond Sutra, one Heart Sutra, and one Sutra of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva’s Fundamental Vows, and specially asked the princess to recite the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva’s Fundamental Vows Sutra to redeem her father and grandmother, because they died miserably.

In addition, there are two daughters of criminal ministers, all of whom are beautiful and beautiful. They say that they have been taught in the palace and know the rules. If he is proficient in this way, he can also accompany the prince to attend the banquet in the future. Moreover, because of her excellent self-cultivation, if she gives birth to a child in the future, she will not behave vulgarly.

Because they are the daughters of criminal ministers, their original names have been taken away, and the empress dowager specially gave them new names so that they can serve the prince...and the princess well.

The empress dowager bestowed one named Wanhui and one named Wanjing, and gave them the surname Lin, so that they would form a forest with two trees, and a forest would be born for the palace in the future.

Rurong promulgated the decree with a slightly arrogant expression, and then said to Zi'an: "Princess, the Empress Dowager has given you a lot of good intentions, I hope you will not disappoint her kindness, these two beauties have no status now , and wait for the prince to come back, the empress dowager will tell the prince to promote them to the position of side concubine."

The implication is that these two people will have positions in the future, so don't bully them.

Zian looked at the two of them, she was really outstanding, especially the woman named Wanhui, she had a delicate appearance, fair and delicate skin, and the red phoenix eyes under the willow eyebrows flew away so quietly, it was indescribably charming.

As for that Wan Jing, with straight eyebrows, not as beautiful as Wan Hui, but she is also a beauty.

"You two young masters, I have met the princess!" Rurong said.

The two of them stepped forward in lotus steps, and got a little shorter in front of Zian, "Your maidservant sees the concubine."

"The concubine sees the princess."

When meeting the ceremony, the two called themselves differently. Wanjing called herself a slave, while Wanhui called herself a concubine.

Zi'an responded lightly, and told Xiaosun, "Take them down, and bring them back to see me later."

"Yes!" Xiaosun responded, looked at the two hostilely, and said, "You two, please follow me."

Xiaosun didn't call herself a slave, she didn't want to treat these two women as masters, they were clearly enemies.

Ru Rong smiled coldly, "The rules of the palace are indeed not strict, it seems that the princess should tidy up properly."

Zi'an smiled slightly, but his eyes were as indifferent as a knife's edge, "Really? The rules in the Empress Dowager's Palace are not strict, how dare I be strict?"

Rurong still sneered, and retorted: "Wangfei's words are wrong, the empress dowager governs the harem..."

Zian interrupted her, and said coldly: "Strict? A court lady dares to criticize my concubine wantonly. Where does this come from? In another day, this concubine should ask the empress dowager if the rules in her palace are like this." ? If you are a slave, you can find fault with your master at will."

Rurong was startled, and wanted to defend himself, but Zian already raised his sleeves, "No!"

He turned around and led the people back.

Rurong was so angry that her teeth were itching, she said in a hateful voice: "No wonder people say that the Princess Regent is arrogant, it really is."

She also took the gift giver back angrily.

Zian knew that she would have to arrange something when she went back, but it didn't matter, if she offended her, she didn't intend to live a good life for herself.

The two Wan were placed in the Lanluo Pavilion, and Zi'an divided the four servants rewarded by the Empress Dowager to serve them both in spring, summer, autumn and winter.

After they settled down, the two went to greet Zian, but Zian didn't see them, so they just told them to go back to rest first.
