It can only be said that military merit is still very good in the current period of official rule. In addition, he has the influence of Ningyuan Houfu and Mrs. Yu behind him, so he can be promoted exceptionally.
This is also the benefit of having people in the court and a deep backing. People like Sheng Hong, who had been wandering around and working hard for more than ten years, put on the scarlet robe. But Gu Tingye put on the scarlet robe in just one year, and he was well known among the people.
It can be regarded as a step to the sky.
"Brother."
Gu Tingye, who saw Zhou Chen again, had already changed into a scarlet robe, and his face was full of joy. He obviously knew about his reward.
He bowed deeply to Zhou Chen.
"What are you doing?" Zhou Chen helped him up.
Gu Tingye must say seriously and solemnly: "If it weren't for my brother, I would still be a libertine who hangs around all day long. I wouldn't have the achievements I have now. I deserve such a great favor."
Zhou Chen said: "You don't have to be like this. Now that we are officials in the same dynasty and both serve in Ma Junsi, there is no need to be so polite. With you helping me with things in the future, I can still be lazy and save some trouble, haha."
"
Gu Tingye clasped his fists and said, "Whatever my brother tells me, I will do whatever I want."
"Okay, let's not do this between the two of us. I miss my wife and children and am eager to go home, so I won't say more to you and will leave now."
"Brother, walk slowly."
After Zhou Chen said goodbye to Gu Tingye, he rode back to Zhongjing Hou Mansion.
As soon as he returned home, he saw Hua Lan coming over to greet him. Zhou Chen gave her a reassuring smile. Hua Lan breathed a sigh of relief and then looked happy.
"Official."
"Lady."
Hua Lan said very sensibly: "Mother has been waiting for the official for a long time. Let's go to see mother first."
"good."
Zhou Chen nodded, and then went with Hua Lan to the courtyard where his mother, Zhou Xu, lived.
"Saburo."
Mrs. Zhou Xu cried with joy when she saw Zhou Chen returning safely. She stepped forward and grabbed Zhou Chen to look at him non-stop.
Zhou Chen can especially understand the feelings of his mother and wife, because this is not his first time on the battlefield, but no matter how brave and invincible he is, people who really care about him will always be worried. This is pure care and love.
"Mom, I'm fine. Not only am I fine, I've also been promoted. Mother, don't worry."
Zhou Xu said: "It's a good thing to be promoted, but it's best if you are fine. When you come back, you won't leave again, right?"
"Well, the rebels have almost been defeated. There is no need for me to go to the official family. Moreover, it will be Yuan Day soon, and the court will also have a holiday. In the next time, I will mostly stay at home to accompany my mother and children.
.”
"well."
Mrs. Zhou Xu was very happy, and then called her two sons who were waiting anxiously. Zhou Chen picked them up one by one.
