Chapter Eleven: The Emperor's Gift

In the battle of Fengyu Pass, the Ming army finally won the victory. Although the victory was a bit untrue, no one cared about it. As soon as the Ming army soldiers entered Fengyu Pass, they completely sealed the north gate of Fengyu Pass. In other words, the Yuan Meng army, which was the most harmful, could not enter the mainland again. The Yuan Meng's century-old pursuit of aspirations was defeated by Zhang Xingfeng's crazy thunder attack, and they could only withdraw from the war helplessly.

It was already May, the air was fresh, and all the Ming soldiers were enjoying the breeze and feeling very comfortable.

Zhang Xingfeng rode his war horse toward the capital. Zhang Xingfeng had actually wanted to go back to Xingfeng Manor by himself, but the injuries on Langfeng's body made him unable to leave with peace of mind, not to mention that he could not let Langfeng and Le Yue separate, so he had to go back to the capital with the army.

In the distance, the outline of the capital city has begun to become clear, and all the soldiers have begun to be excited. This time they entered the capital city as victorious warriors, of course they are very proud.

"Count Zhang, I really want to thank Brother Langfeng this time. After returning to the capital, the emperor will definitely reward Brother Langfeng." Old General Wang smiled at Zhang Xingfeng and said.

Zhang Xingfeng smiled faintly, as if he didn't care about it.

General Wang smiled and said nothing, because the capital had arrived, and the welcoming army outside the city gate was clearly visible.

Zhu Li stood in front, seemingly anxious. When he saw the army appear, a smile immediately appeared on his face.

General Wang and Hong Zhu immediately accelerated to the front. Seeing Zhu Li standing in front and waiting for them, they were not only a little excited, but immediately rode forward and immediately dismounted and walked to Zhu Li.

"I have never let down the holy grace and will eventually keep the Yuanmeng cavalry out." General Wang and Hong Zhu knelt on one knee and said loudly.

Zhang Xingfeng smiled faintly: "This old general Wang did not blush at all. He said so loudly that it seemed that the Yuanmeng cavalry was really destroyed by him." But Zhang Xingfeng didn't say anything, but just looked back at the carriage behind, where there was a severely injured wolf front in the carriage.

Zhu Li immediately walked forward, helped General Wang and Hong Zhu up, and said, "You two are the heroes of my Ming Dynasty. Get up quickly. Let's go and go back to the palace with me!" Zhu Li immediately pulled the two of them and got on the dragon chasing.

The group followed Zhu Li into the city gate and headed towards the palace. The people in the entire capital were cheering for the heroes. They knew that the war was won and there was no danger. So they cheered. In fact, the civilians' requirements were so low that they could only be safe and safe.

Zhang Xingfeng was also sent by Zhu Li to invite him to the Golden Palace, and even the seriously injured Langfeng was taken to the Golden Palace by Zhu Li in a sedan chair.

The entire Jinluan Palace was full of joy and civil and military officials, and everyone had a smile on their faces.

"Haha... do all the civil and military officials in the court seem to be very happy? Haha... Come and see the seat for Earl Zhang!" Zhu Li sat on the dragon throne, smiling happily, and immediately arranged for someone to see the seat as soon as he saw Zhang Xingfeng.

Zhang Xingfeng bent slightly with a smile on his face, without refusing, and sat aside and smiled at the elder brother Lang Feng who was sitting next to him. Lang Feng seemed very happy today, with a smile on his face, and was not at all dismayed from losing his martial arts skills.

"Today, I am very happy, haha...hahaha..." Zhu Li laughed again. Obviously he was really very happy, and the ministers below were all happy.

"Today, I have a few things to announce!" Zhu Li's smile on his face was a little calmer, and all the officials below immediately calmed down. They knew that Zhu Li seemed to be awarding. It is a practice to award rewards after a great victory.

"General Wang, I won't say anything. I have devoted myself to the Ming Dynasty all my life. I am embarrassed to keep making General Wang so busy. Now I announce that I will give General Wang a thousand taels of gold and a mansion by the West Lake in Hangzhou. Let General Wang enjoy more happiness in the future!" Zhu Li smiled at General Wang.

General Wang immediately got up and knelt down and thanked, "Thank you for your kindness!" Thousand taels of gold are not a small amount, equivalent to 100,000 taels of silver. It is estimated that the old general will not have such a salary in his life.

"There is no need for this to General Wang. I know your contribution to the Ming Dynasty in my heart, and everyone knows that you deserve it." Zhu Li said sincerely.

General Wang's eyes were a little red. He had been on the battlefield for his whole life. I don't know how many times he had struggled on the brink of life and death. When he was old, he felt overwhelmed. Now he has achieved success and has retired bravely, leaving behind a reputation for eternity. General Wang is very satisfied with this. General Wang stood up and returned to his position.

Zhu Li smiled and said, "This time, I discovered a general like General Hong Zhu!" The officials below knew that Zhu Li was going to reward Hong Zhu, and they all looked at Hong Zhu enviously, but Hong Zhu was still the same old appearance and his expression did not change.

Zhu Li shouted: "I announce that General Hongzhu is now promoted to the Minister of War and will be given a hundred taels of gold!"

Hong Zhu immediately left the group and knelt down to thank him, but there was not much surprise on his face, only a little smile.

Zhu Li nodded secretly. Hong Zhu was not only careful, but also never panic or in a hurry at any time. He was a very steady and reassuring subordinate.

Zhu Li suddenly looked at Lang Feng. Lang Feng was closing his eyes to rest at this time. He was indeed seriously injured by the ground. Now he often still sleeps and sleeps for more than eight hours a day.

"Wolf Feng is a role model for my Ming Dynasty men. He killed more than 30,000 enemies. He rushed forward in every battle and made great contributions to the victory of the battle. The most important thing is that Wolf Feng was desperate to protect Le Yue, and was seriously injured." Zhu Li stood up from the dragon throne, looking at Wolf Feng with gleam in his eyes.

Lang Feng also opened his eyes and smiled when he saw this scene. He could not get up or walk by himself, so he could only look at Zhu Li on the chair.

Zhu Li continued: "According to the military merits of the Ming Dynasty, killing 30,000 enemy troops is enough to become a general. Nian Langfeng has no military status, so I announce it-"

Zhang Xingfeng suddenly looked at Zhu Li with a smile on his face, but his eyes were very clear, without any smile: "Zhu Li, it depends on how you decide. If I don't satisfy me, hum!" Zhang Xingfeng cared very much about Lang Feng becoming like this. Now Zhang Xingfeng cared very much about Zhu Li's reward, because Lang Feng came to the military camp for enough military merits and then reached a certain high position to be worthy of Le Yue.

Although Le Yue and Lang Feng have secretly felt affection, if Lang Feng does not have enough status, it will be difficult for them to do things.

"Wolf Feng killed countless enemies in this battle for courage. Protecting the princess is loyal. I am deeply pleased that all loyalty and courage are all. I am now given the title of Count of Langfeng!" Zhu Li suddenly looked at Zhang Xingfeng. No matter how the smile on his face looked at the weasel looking at the chicken.

"count!"

"count!"

Everyone was shocked. The honor of the earl's title is not comparable to that of ordinary officials. For example, the heads of those top families can become earls. Only the heads of the four major families in the world are dukes, and the other highest ones are earls. It is conceivable how rare this earl's title is.

A smile appeared on Zhang Xingfeng's lips: "Earl? Haha, Zhu Li, you know the importance of it, haha!" Zhang Xingfeng turned his gaze to Langfeng again.

Lang Feng seemed extremely happy and excited. With the title of Count, if he wanted to marry a princess again, there would be no problem and his status was enough. The thing Lang Feng wanted to do most now was to talk about this with Le Yue, but Le Yue was not here now. Once she came back, she was called by her mother.

Zhu Li said intimately: "Zhang Xingfeng, I have given you such a great face. I can't refuse if I ask you for help!" Zhu Li showed a meaningful smile on his face.

Zhu Li suddenly shouted loudly: "I have another very big happy event to announce today!"

Everyone is quiet, the happy event? It is very big? What else is there? The victory of the battle has been announced, what else is there?

"The Empress is here!" The eunuch's unique sharp voice suddenly rang out.

Zhu Li showed a smile on his face, everything was almost the same as his calculations.

The graceful and luxurious Empress walked into the Golden Palace with the help of Le Yue.

"Le Yue!" Lang Feng's eyes suddenly opened wide, and the joy of seeing Le Yue was undoubtedly revealed. When Le Yue saw Lang Feng looking at her like this, his eyes were not hidden at all. He couldn't help but blush, buried his head down and looked at Lang Feng no longer. However, the queen beside him noticed this scene and not only smiled.

Zhu Li immediately got up and took the queen's hand, led the queen to her side, and let the queen sit beside her. The queen looked at Zhu Li and smiled. Zhu Li also smiled, and both of them looked at Le Yue tacitly.

After Zhu Li sat down, he said, "I and the Queen have thought about the marriage of Le Yue early on, and now I and the Queen have made unanimous decisions."

Oh, the princess got married, and in an instant, all the ministers looked at Zhu Li with their eyes glowing. They were extremely enthusiastic about these things. Who was so lucky to marry the princess? The ministers were puzzled.

Le Yue looked at her father and mother in shock. How afraid she was that her father and mother would marry her to someone she didn't like: "I haven't told my father about me and Langfeng yet!" Le Yue was anxious.

Lang Feng was also very shocked. When did he decide this matter? He began to get nervous. He looked at Le Yue, hoping to know something from Le Yue's expression. Le Yue also looked at him that Lang Feng had already seen it, and Le Yue didn't know about it either. He hoped that the emperor could say that he was the prince consort. At this time, he could no longer think too much, because the answer was about to be revealed.

"I announce that Princess Leyue and Earl Wolf Feng will get married in half a year!" Zhu Li said suddenly.

"Wolf Feng!" Zhang Xingfeng's eyes lit up and he looked at Zhu Li. Zhu Li was smiling at Zhang Xingfeng! Zhang Xingfeng knew that Zhu Li must have a request, otherwise it would be impossible to not only give the title of Count of Langfeng, but also give his daughter to Langfeng. The most important thing is that when Zhang Xingfeng told Zhu Li about this, Zhu Li was still very dissatisfied.

It suddenly changed now. It seems that even if Zhu Li didn't ask for Zhang Xingfeng, it must be to please Zhang Xingfeng, because after Le Yue came back, Zhu Li did not meet Le Yue at all. Obviously, Zhu Li didn't know about Le Yue and Lang Feng, and it seems that it was impossible for him to do this because he loved his daughter. This conclusion came out.

"Yes, Zhu Li, although I know you are showing goodwill to me, I am still very happy." Zhang Xingfeng showed a very obvious smile on his face. Obviously, he was very happy.

Lang Feng was stunned at this time. When he heard his name, he was stunned. After he was looking forward to it, he found that he had really succeeded. At that moment, his excitement had completely filled his head.

"I've succeeded, Leyue is going to be with me! Leyue belongs to me!" Lang Feng was extremely excited, and there were only these few words in his head.

Le Yue was also extremely excited, but the shyness of the woman made her unable to lower her head and secretly look at Lang Feng. Seeing Lang Feng's stupid appearance, she could only complain: "What a fool!"

Lang Feng finally woke up completely and was about to get up immediately, but his body really didn't allow him to do this. Zhang Xingfeng immediately pressed him down and refused to get up.

Zhu Li immediately said, "Wolf Feng, you don't have to get up, just sit down."

Langfeng still held the chair arm with both hands, bowed slightly, and said gratefully: "Thank you, Queen!" As he said that, he secretly looked at Le Yue. At this time, Le Yue also looked at him secretly. As soon as the two of them touched their eyes, they immediately separated, as if they were afraid that others would find out. They were still so generous in the military camp, but now they have become shy after having a reputation.

"Okay, today, I want to have a great banquet for the ministers! Let's go to the Imperial Garden, and I have ordered people to prepare everything." Zhu Li said with a loud laugh.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Everyone said.

Immediately, everyone followed Zhu Li to the Imperial Garden. Zhang Xingfeng came to visit the Imperial Garden once, but when he came again, Zhang Xingfeng was still happy about the beauty of the Imperial Garden.

A giant long pavilion about 100 meters long and 20 meters wide is located in the northeast of the Imperial Garden. There is a long table under the long pavilion. It is estimated that there will be no problem for a hundred people to sit.

Zhu Li and the Queen took the lead in taking the seat, and everyone took the seat one by one and began to enjoy the feast.

Under the long pavilion, the cool breeze is pleasant and pleasant. Eating a feast and looking at the beautiful scenery is indeed a great pleasure. Everything seems so perfect, but this perfection is about to be destroyed.

"Emperor, Emperor, Qingzhou County is urgent!" An eunuch started shouting from a distance.
