After the war, it was concluded that this was a good habit. It also made Shen Ao see his own shortcomings, so he built the tomb of the heroes and the cenotaph. The purpose was to stimulate the common people and stimulate the blood in their hearts. Be brave. In the future, once Daqian is in danger, more people will be willing to take the initiative to stand up.
The purpose, function and process were all explained clearly to Shen Yunyi. Although he is an elder, in this matter, Shen Yunyi has no airs at all. He will do whatever Shen Ao says. Countless facts have already It proved that his nephew was far more evil and clever than him. Even so, there was no need to worry about anything, just let his nephew arrange everything.
Shen Yunyi asked again what he didn't understand, and after making sure that there were no questions, he left with satisfaction. However, Shen Ao who was left behind simply washed up under Bai Qiutong's care and then fell asleep.
In the past three days, Shen Ao has hardly been idle. He even slept for less than two hours a day. He was really tired. Now that the big things are done and come to an end, he can finally have a good night's sleep.
Before dawn, the city of Daliang became very noisy. Compared to Shen Ao who was still talking to Duke Zhou, many people got up early, and after eating two mouthfuls of food, they headed towards the city. Go to the largest square.
As a result, there was a scene like this. Early in the morning, just after dawn, people everywhere came out of their houses like locusts, dragging their families and families out one after another, and formed a torrent on the streets. .
Obviously everyone wants to get there earlier so they can find a better viewing position.
In contrast, Emperor Qianwen, as the emperor, did not have to worry about not having any good position for himself. But he still woke up early, dressed under Yan Fu's service, and listened to the memorial ceremony. Reports related to the ceremony.
"Your Majesty, the ceremony will be presided over by Marquis Zhongcheng. Your Majesty will personally open the curtain during the introduction. Later, Mr. Cheng, Minister of the Ministry of War, will be responsible for speaking." After briefly reporting what he learned, Yan Fu went out to recruit people. After beckoning, a group of eunuchs and maids came forward and began to lay out breakfast dishes.
"Oh? Does Cheng Bolin want to speak too? Haha, he knows how to take advantage of the situation." Emperor Qianwen chuckled and seemed to be in a good mood. At the same time, he secretly nodded to express his satisfaction.
Cheng Bolin is the Minister of War, and for him to speak out, it means that these rangers died for the sake of the great cause. This is equivalent to official recognition. Burying them in the tomb of heroes in this way can be regarded as having a good reputation. These people His death can be considered as dying for the country and the court.
Thinking that Shen Ao actually thought of these things, Emperor Qianwen was quite satisfied. After all, people who can think about the country and the dead soldiers must not be bad people in nature. Especially those who know how to advance and retreat, which makes him even more satisfied. Overjoyed.
Emperor Qianwen looked happy. Seeing the eyes of Yan Fu who was waiting at the side, he also happily agreed and said: "Dong Zhongguo has handed over the hosting of the matter to Marquis Zhongcheng. He is really filial."
"Well, it's filial piety, which is good, hahaha." Emperor Qianwen opened his mouth and smiled happily. If he had achieved such meritorious service when he was young and had the opportunity to shine, I'm afraid he would definitely Do your duty. However, Shen Ao's ability to retreat in rapids is enough to prove that he has no ambition for power. Only such a person can allow him to use it with more confidence.
Regarding the fact that Shen Ao did not attend the memorial ceremony, it was all hosted by Zhongcheng Hou Shen Yunyi. Very few people knew about this matter. When many officials rushed here in the morning after receiving the order, they saw that they were wearing Shen Yunyi, who was wearing a dark green marquis robe, was busy here, commanding the silver-armored guards who were responsible for maintaining security. Some people even sneered. For example, Shi Zitong and Zheng Qi, the staff who came with the power of King Xiang, were standing together and pointing. Light.
Even if Prince Xiang is ill, he shouldn't be cured so quickly. Otherwise, wouldn't he be telling the world that he is pretending to be ill? So even if he is suppressing it, he will have to suppress it in Prince Xiang's mansion for several days and not go out. This time he comes Those who arrived were a few staff members, standing in the open space where King Xiang was supposed to be standing.
Shi Zitong really hated Shen Ao, especially this time when he went to the Zhongguo Palace to apologize in person, but was still kicked out by the other party, which made him feel ugly. Now that he finally had the opportunity to criticize the other party, naturally he would not There will be no mercy at all.
"What kind of thing? You are lucky and have made some achievements, but you don't even know about filial piety? Just look at the elders busy there, and he doesn't even show his face?" Shi Zitong said in a loud voice. These words quickly attracted some attention from others.
"That's right, how can a person who relies on such a big person have greater achievements? Hey, some people will run rampant when they are really powerful. They are really villains." Zheng Qi also said cooperatively from the side. , the sound is also not quiet.
Their voices attracted the attention of many people, and some officials were also thoughtful. They finally saw that the conflict between Prince Xiang's Mansion and Duke Zhongguo's Palace had probably reached an irreconcilable state. Think about whether this Duke Zhongguo still You're really not too smart to offend a prince to death.
Now King Xiang is still King Xiang, but if one day he really ascends the throne, where will Lord Zhongguo go?
For your own safety, should you stay away from the people in the Zhongguo Palace in the future? Don't be affected by it for no reason. That would be unspeakable.
Of course, not everyone has this attitude, including those in Prince Xiang's Mansion. For example, Han Ce, the chief staff member who came with him, deliberately stopped his steps after hearing the questions and answers from Shi Zitong and Zheng Qi. Moving to the side.
This time, King Xiang did not listen to his advice and did not withdraw the money, which made Han Ce feel that something was wrong. He had a feeling that King Xiang would fall out of favor from now on, or at least lose the chance to compete for the throne.
Then there is not much way out for following King Xiang. At this time, it is also time to think of some escape routes for yourself. King Xiang is seeking death himself, so he cannot drag them along to support him. But now, looking at the few members of His Majesty Among the princes, except for Prince Qing, who is already an adult and is still a cripple, I really don’t see any other princes with potential for development. Even if he wants to retire, what choice will he make?
In terms of nature, Han Ce and Zeng Tong belong to the same type of people, they are both talented and ambitious people.
People with a deep chest and a wealth of knowledge are people with great ambitions. What they want to learn most is to be like Zhang Liang, Zhuge and others. Unless they have no choice, they will not withdraw from this drama of fighting for power.
It's just that Zeng Tong had to quit before he had time to make a choice. If Shen Ao hadn't appeared, he might have been able to hide in an unknown place and live in chaos for the rest of his life. But Han Ce was different. Now that King Xiang has not done anything unforgivable, he still has an option to withdraw now.
Only when Han Ce had this idea and looked carefully at the royal family, he realized that there seemed to be no big tree to rely on, which made him frown slightly.
As time passed, more and more people and officials came to the square.
Not only the common people and officials, but also the 30,000 golden-armored guards and 50,000 silver-armored guards in Daliang City basically rushed over this time. After all, this time it was about the bravery of the soldiers who died in battle, and it was closely related to them.
Shen Yunyi had already obtained all the plans from Shen Ao, and arranged for his own soldiers and people from the Zhongguo Palace to direct everyone to take their positions as planned. Fortunately, the square was big enough, even more than a dozen people could stand there. Tens of thousands of people didn't have any problems at all, so even though there were a lot of people in the square, there was no chaos.
More and more people gathered, and when the auspicious moment was approaching, a large number of golden-armored guards rushed to the square, and one person stood two steps away. Seeing this, anyone with common sense knew that the emperor must be coming. Otherwise, the defense level would not have become so high.
Sure enough, the golden dragon chariot drawn by six horses slowly came forward on the safe road opened by the golden armored guards and appeared in everyone's sight.
"Long live your Majesty, long live your Majesty." First, the guards in gold armor knelt down in unison, then the guards in silver armor knelt down in unison, and then came the officials and people. For a time, the whole square was filled with shouts. , the figures fell to the ground one after another.
In the crowd, Teng Ziju and Master Awakening, who were also watching the fun, looked at each other with helplessness in their eyes, and had to kneel on the ground with everyone. But if you look carefully, you can find that The two of them were just half-kneeling. After all, so many people had fallen, so just the two of them standing here, wouldn't they stand out from the crowd and attract attention?
When I woke up and came here, I was naturally very curious about the so-called tomb of heroes created by Shen Ao, and wanted to see what was going on.
Teng Ziju was different. He wanted to see what Shen Ao had become now and how proud he was.
I originally thought that Shen Ao went to the barbarian land to cause trouble for the barbarians without knowing what he was capable of, so he would definitely go there and never return. For this reason, Teng Ziju also drank several drinks with Xingxing in Hanshan Temple. In his opinion, , Shen Ao's visit this time was equivalent to a sheep entering a tiger's mouth. In this way, his mission was completed, and he had an explanation for the Barbarian King's entrustment.
But who would have thought that the barbarian army would be defeated later?
When he first heard the news, Teng Ziju was naturally full of disbelief. He had seen with his own eyes the strength of the barbarian warriors. Their superb riding skills and their lack of fear of death on the battlefield were far from being a frontier army. Soldiers can be compared.
Even the regular Daqian soldiers are invincible, let alone this improvised ranger army. This is simply a joke, and it is just asking for death.
