After my second brother and I represented Jing and Yang's soldiers of the Northern Expedition respectively reported to the emperor the report of the Northern Expedition victory, the emperor, the emperor, who was in charge of the court, issued an edict. Tonight, the emperor, the emperor, had a banquet for the Northern Expedition soldiers in the palace, and sent 400 stones to the court, which was more than 400 stones to commend and celebrate.

.

After the Empress Dowager and the Emperor left the court, I exchanged some greetings with the Chinese military officials of the court, and then said goodbye to the eldest brother and second brother, and rode his horse straight to the general's mansion in the west.

Seven months, I have been away from home for nearly seven months! Is Baoer growing stronger? I don’t know if he has made progress in martial arts, so what about his knowledge of military skills? Is Xingcai’s daughter more beautiful and more like her mother?

Of course, what I care about the most is Rong'er. She has been pregnant for eight months and is only in one or two months before giving birth. It is hard to imagine that I actually let her pass seven months alone in the pregnancy.

Fortunately, due to the timely end of the first phase of the Northern Expedition, I was able to accompany her through the most critical time before childbirth. If this war lasted for another two or three months, I would probably not even be able to see the birth of my third child.

When I was about to arrive in front of the mansion, I flew out and dropped the black horse directly to the guard behind me, and walked towards the mansion with great strides.

When I entered the mansion, I saw the two little guys Baoer and Xingcai at first sight. They seemed to have received the news and were also running outside the mansion.

"Dad!" Two tender and crisp voices came into my ears at the same time, and the two little guys rushed towards me like they were flying.

I bent down, and I grabbed my son and daughter, and carried the two little guys with one hand, lowered my head and kissed them a few times on the two pink and tender faces, and said excitedly: "Good boy. What a girl, do you miss my dad?"

"Think about it~~!" The little guy replied in a long tone with their nipples.

Xingcai hooked my neck and asked cutely: "Dad, have you brought any gifts to Xiaocai?"

"Ghost girl, I know I want a gift from my dad!" I deliberately "punched" the little girl with a needle-punched short beard. I replied with a smile, "How could my dad forget Xiao Cai's explanation? You both have gifts..."

"Dad, dad. I don't want toys anymore. I want a horse. I want a horse. I want a horse. I want a big wu (天子)..." Baoer shook his head and shouted, his two obviously thicker arms kept gesturing.

"Okay, okay, okay..." After "thorning" the eldest son in an impartial manner, I answered repeatedly. "The gifts are all on Uncle Wei's side, you can go find him yourself!"

"Thank you, Dad!" After a burst of cheers, the two little guys who were put down rushed towards Zhang Wei, the captain who was entering the door like a gust of wind.

"Uncle Wei, Uncle Wei, what about the gift that my father brought to Xiaocai..." The sweet voice of the little girl rang again.

"Don't be anxious. Don't be anxious, here..." Zhang Wei was never afraid on the battlefield, and even if a million troops were in front of him, he would not show any fear. However, when facing the two little guys, he felt a little helpless.

He has followed "I" to join the army since Zhuo County. He has never left him for more than 20 years, and has given up countless opportunities to independently control the military and local areas, and is only willing to serve as my personal guard captain.

Now, the young man in Zhuo County was already middle-aged at this moment, but he had never gotten married. He almost treated Baoer and Xingcai as his children and drowned the two little guys.

With a knowing smile, I turned to look at Xiahou Ba who had just accompanied Baoer and Xingcai. He was wearing a plain casual dress. His face was rosy and his body was vigorous and powerful, and there was only a little dull look between his eyebrows and eyes.

"Are you still adapting to Lujiang?" I retracted my gaze and nodded at Xiahou Ba and said hello.

"...Zhang...Sister..." Xiahou Ba opened his mouth and said a few words intermittently, but he could not say a complete word. His originally slightly slim face was as red as bloodshot.

It can be seen that he felt very embarrassed about whether he called me "Zhang Fei", "General Zhang" or "brother-in-law".

"Haha..." I laughed. I stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, "I call him whatever I want. They are all family members, and there is nothing to restrain."

Xiahou Ba tried hard, and the words came to his mouth, but in the end he chose to give up: "My sister is inconvenient and walks slowly, and she is still behind..."

"My husband..." Before Xiahou Ba's voice fell, I heard a familiar voice as gentle as jade. The slightly trembling voice showed great excitement.

He suddenly raised his head and looked at the sound. The figure that was obsessed with dreams had already appeared in his sight.

After a slap of Xiahou Ba, I hurriedly walked forward.

"See General!"

"Get up!" I waved my hand to the maid who was bowing and helped Rong'er, who was obviously inconvenient to move.

Because she is pregnant, the beauty's body is much plump, but her figure is higher than that of ordinary women and does not look so bloated. Her whole body exudes the brilliance of maternality, and the mature beauty makes people unable to look away.

Regardless of the fact that there were still many people present, I did not hesitate to gather my beloved wife into my arms.

After a slight struggle, the beauty handed over her body control and enjoyed her head on my shoulder.

.

"Mr., I..." After returning to the main hall, Rong'er probably thought of hiding the matter of being pregnant without her being pregnant. Her face turned red and she was stammering and wanted to explain something.

"Needless to say!" I waved my hand, stopped the beauty's explanation and said with a smile, "I'm very happy, really happy!"

"Ah~??" Rong'er covered her mouth lightly and said in surprise, "Are you angry?"

"This is a big joy, what's so angry?" I smiled and said with certainty, "When Bao'er and Xingcai were born, the wife had taken a lot of risks. I just didn't want to take this risk anymore."

"My husband..." Rong'er's expression lagged behind, and infinite affection appeared in her bright eyes like water.

"Dad, please let your mother have another younger brother. Xiaoxing has a younger brother, so I want it too!" Xingcai girl suddenly inserted into her.

Rong'er's face turned red, she turned to look at Xingcai, and said softly: "Xiao Cai, have you finished your homework today?"

The little girl was stunned. Her eyes rolled and she replied with a very pleasing attitude: "My father is back today, my mother is happy, and Xiao Cai is also very happy, just like the New Year.

Don't do your homework, right?" It's strange that the genius Xingcai is not afraid of anyone (including me), but she is afraid of her mother. In front of Rong'er, the little girl never dared to show off her tricks.

"Dad is right!" I pulled the little girl over and hugged her in my arms. I stroked her head gently and said with a smile, "But only this day, I will have to complete my homework tomorrow!"

"Okay~!" The little girl looked up and replied with a sweet smile, "Thank you, dad!"

"Go and have fun!"

"My husband, you shouldn't be tempted by Xiao Cai. She is getting more and more evil, and I can't even control me anymore. A Dou and Xing'er, Xiao Guang are often made to cry by her, and even Bao'er can't beat her. If this continues.

It's not like a daughter's house, it's almost a boy!" Rong'er said complaining, but had a happy expression on her face.

"Even if you become a boy, you are the most beautiful boy in the world!" I laughed discontently. In my opinion, such star lottery is undoubtedly more conducive to healthy growth. At least it is better than those women who only know how to be submissive.

After glaring at me with resentment, Rong'er couldn't help but chuckled: "It's strange. Although A Dou and the others are often made to cry, they are still willing to follow Xiao Cai!"

"That's it. I don't even look at whose daughter it is!" I said pretending to be lustful.

…………

"Madam, you have suffered in the past few months!" After retracting my smile, I walked to the soft couch where Rong'er was sitting, hugged her from behind, pressed her body against her back, and gently placed her hands on the raised abdomen, feeling the beating of two lives.

"..." The beauty breathed a long sigh of relief.

.

That night, more than 200 civil and military officials from the Northern Expedition were among the sixty-four commanders and above.

At the same time, the Lujiang County Magistrate's Office also arranged a sumptuous wine and food for 40,000 Triumph Army soldiers.

…………………………………………………………………..

Two days later, during the court discussion, the Huangmen Minister Lu Ji read out the emperor's order to the soldiers of the Northern Expedition (actually, it was negotiated and drafted by the elder brother and Xu Shu, Lu Su, Zhang Zhao and others)——

The second brother was appointed as the General of the East, and was appointed as the Marquis of Yang (Monday Marquis of the County);

I was appointed as the General of the Western Expedition, and was appointed as the Marquis of Xiling (County Marquis);

Zhao Yunjin general Zhenbei, Huangzhongjin general Zhennan general, Wei Yan was promoted to Left General; all three were from Tinghou Marquis Jinxiang Hou;

Zhuge Liang, Marquis of Pang Tong, Jinxiang;

Wenpin, Gan Ning, Pang De, Ma Xiu and others were promoted to the next level. He was named Jinting Hou;

Due to the special circumstances, Ma Dai has not given a reward for the time being;

…………

In addition to rewarding the Northern Expedition generals who made great contributions, 180,000 soldiers who participated in the war also received quite generous rewards——the soldiers who died in the battle.

In addition to receiving pensions (money, grain, or land, and plowing ox), his family can also be exempted from three years of labor taxation, and the labor taxation will be reduced by half in the next five years;

Disabled soldiers can have two choices——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

These disabled soldiers are basically veterans on the battlefield, and their rich experience can be said to be a valuable asset.

For the other soldiers, there are also rewards for money and silk.

The elder brother also proposed a very constructive consideration—————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

Its main contents include:

All soldiers who have been killed or injured can obtain the status of "members" personally granted by the court. If the soldiers who have been killed or injured or killed more than ten enemies or above the enemy commander, they can also obtain the status of "members".

Anyone who is meritorious or a citizen, may not kneel down if he sees an official below the county magistrate, and his family can be exempted from 20% of the labor taxes...

The identity of "meeting people" can be inherited, the soldiers who fell into battle can be inherited for two generations, and the disabled and other soldiers can be inherited for one generation.

.

In addition, the elder brother announced that he would hold a grand memorial to the fallen soldiers in the Shouchun Yinghun Mausoleum (a cemetery dedicated to burying the fallen soldiers, engraved the list of fallen soldiers, accepting sacrifices for the four seasons, located in the south of Shouchun City) in the middle of this month, and bringing back the heroic souls.
