Chapter five hundred and twenty first triumphant return
"Even if we can't force them to admit it, we can still make our teacher famous."
"yes!"
After Zhao Jin finished instructing Yan Shiyi, Qing Yi's voice rang out, "Your Highness, the informants in the East Palace have been completely eliminated."
"But there are still some that are not easy to do."
Zhao Jin raised his eyelids and asked, "Which family's spy?"
Qingyi reported several names, all of which were nobles with some blood relationship with the royal family.
"Clear it directly." Zhao Jin said straightforwardly without any hesitation.
Originally, his biggest restriction was Zhao Qian, but now with Zhao Qian's situation, it is no longer possible to regain power, and Zhao Jin has no restrictions.
Although Zhao Jin is still the prince in name, he is actually equivalent to the person in power of Zhao State.
There is no need for him to worry about these so-called nobles anymore.
Qing Yi raised his eyebrows and responded, "Yes."
There was obvious joy in his voice. After all, he was now the captain of the guard. It was a bit torturous to watch the spies wandering in front of him every day but not being able to take action.
"Your Highness, what should we do with His Majesty's secret guards?" Takeda asked.
"Secret guard." Zhao Jin knocked on the desk with his fingers, and a smile flashed in his eyes, "Don't worry, we don't need to do this ourselves, they will come to find the orphan on their own."
After all, the leader of the secret guard has already made his choice, and it will only be a matter of time before he comes to him.
"We'll just wait."
…
The army led by Qi Jiahan arrived at Bianzhou City before the envoys from the Long Kingdom.
Zhao Jin stood on the tower and could see further than the courtiers below.
The army in the distance marched toward Bianzhou City in mighty force, with the flags of the Zhao State and the Qi Army flying, which was particularly eye-catching.
This was the first time that Zhao Jin stood in the welcoming team and watched the army's triumphant return.
As the army gradually approached, Zhao Jin smiled and said to Zhao Xingzhi behind him: "Fourth brother, let's go. This kid Qi Yunche is coming with us this time."
This was Qi Yunche's special request, so Zhao Jin granted him a leave.
Zhao Xingzhi was still a little uncomfortable hearing the word "fourth brother", but he was a little happy after not seeing Qi Yunche for a long time and was too lazy to care about it.
The two of them walked down the tower and stood in front of the civil and military officials.
At this time, the army was very close to them.
Qi Jiahan got off the horse first, followed closely by the soldiers behind him who dismounted one after another.
"See His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
Zhao Jin took a few steps forward and reached out to hold Qi Jiahan's folded fists, "General Qi, there is no need to be polite."
After helping Qi Jiahan up, Zhao Jin put one hand behind his back and one hand in front of his abdomen, raising the corners of his mouth, "Thank you for your hard work. I am here alone. Congratulations to all the soldiers on their triumphant return!"
After Zhao Jin finished speaking, the soldiers on the tower beat the war drums.
Different from the dense drumbeats on the battlefield, the joy of the drums this time was obvious.
All the soldiers looked a little excited, and some even turned red.
Every time he returns from a victorious battle, it is usually the commander-in-chief or the generals with higher positions who receive the most praise, and those who have made great contributions are also the generals.
But most of the soldiers did not receive any praise.
When Zhao Jin spoke now, he did not boast about individual generals individually, but directly included everyone.
Looking at the expressions of the soldiers, Zhao Jin smiled.
To win a battle, command is very important, but war is a collective, not individual, and this honor should be shared by everyone.
"Let's go, the palace has prepared a banquet."
After saying this, Zhao Jin looked at the generals and added, "Because the banquet in the palace cannot be attended by all the soldiers, I have ordered four military camps to hold a banquet in the military camp, and the remaining soldiers can go to the military camp to participate!"
The audience was silent for a moment, and then burst into cheers.
"Thank you, Your Highness the Crown Prince!"
Qi Jiahan was also a little surprised. He was stunned for a moment, and then laughed, "Hahaha, His Highness is right, let's go to the city first."
In the past, these soldiers were disbanded and returned to their homes or military camps.
There was no place for them in the banquet, but now Zhao Jin held one for them in the military camp.
Qi Jiahan lived and died with these soldiers, and had deep feelings for them. Now that he saw that even ordinary soldiers could share this joy, the smile on his face became even wider.
Qi Yunche, who was standing behind Qi Jiahan, first glanced at Zhao Jin vaguely, and then his eyes fell on Zhao Xingzhi.
Even though he tried his best to endure it, some pain still leaked out.
Zhao Xingzhi saw it clearly, pursed his lips, said nothing, and followed Zhao Jin towards the palace.
Qi Yunche, who was originally behind Qi Jiahan, simply went around behind Zhao Xingzhi, trying to find an opportunity to talk to Zhao Xingzhi.
But as soon as he opened his mouth, Zhao Xingzhi seemed to have expected it, and lowered his voice and said: "Let's talk after the banquet is over."
Hearing this, Qi Yunche could only shut his mouth.
The banquet to celebrate the triumphant return was as usual, and Qi Jiahan and Qi Yunche were the ones who received the most toasts.
Zhao Jin did not stay at the banquet for too long. After all, he was the prince now. With him around, the officials and generals would inevitably be unable to let go.
After Zhao Jin left, the atmosphere at the banquet became much more lively as expected.
In particular, a group of generals started drinking directly, and many people got drunk. The whole banquet was like a chaotic dance of demons.
Some civil servants' faces were dark and blue, which made them very ugly.
Qi Yunche wanted to find time to talk with Zhao Xingzhi several times, but he was Qi Jiahan's only biological son, and he had made great contributions in putting down the rebellion. He also had a good relationship with Zhao Jin and Zhao Xingzhi.
Many officials caught him drinking, and Qi Yunche couldn't get away at all.
Moreover, Zhao Xingzhi also left the scene shortly after Zhao Jin left.
Now, Qi Yunche can only wait and find time later.
After leaving the banquet, Zhao Jin did not return directly to the East Palace, but hung in the pavilion by the lake in the wind.
There was a faint sound of footsteps, and Qing Yi said next to Zhao Jin: "It's the fourth prince."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Xingzhi said: "His Royal Highness."
Zhao Jin turned around and frowned, "It's rare to hear that you are so unfamiliar with me."
Zhao Jin did not call himself "Gu".
Zhao Xingzhi, standing opposite him, heard the implication of Zhao Jin's words, smiled, and did not use any more honorifics.
"I didn't expect it to be so soon."
Qi Yunche's words were meaningless, but Zhao Jin understood what he meant.
He spread his hands helplessly, "To be honest, I didn't expect it either."
According to his original situation, it should have taken another two years.
However, Wanyan Shiyi took action, forcing Zhao Qian to take action against him. Zhao Jin had no choice but to strike first to avoid becoming a victim.
