Chapter 94 Rewards
The turmoil in Chang'an City lasted for a full month. During this period, countless people were implicated and had their homes confiscated and their families exterminated. The court network that Li Linfu had worked so hard to manage was completely dismantled overnight.
If it weren't for the fact that so many people had been killed, Li Longji would have wanted to clear out all the Lin Party members. But there was no way, there were too many casualties, and many government affairs in the court had begun to be put on hold. If he continued to kill, there would be no one in the court. There are not many people left.
By the way, Li Linfu was of course blamed for the attack by the beetles. Otherwise, there is no way to explain why Li Linfu didn't go to admire the lanterns, and even the surrounding Longwu army happened to be transferred away, putting the saint under a group of thugs. .Lu Xuan said that he could completely accept it.
Some people escaped because of this. But everyone with a discerning eye knew that their official careers were over. At least it was absolutely impossible for Li Longji to reuse them. But there were also smart people who noticed a way out. At this time, they naturally wanted to join the prince.
Rumor has it that the saint was seriously injured that night and was in poor health. In addition, Li Longji did not go to court for a month, so this kind of talk became even more popular. After that, more and more people defected to the prince. The prince's people Without doing anything at home, he had easily taken over most of Li Linfu's political power.
Li Longji naturally knew this clearly. But he chose to remain silent in an extremely rare event. Because this time, he felt that his body really couldn't hold it any longer.
Forty days after the Shangyuan Festival Rebellion, Li Longji went to court.
The intention of going to court this time is known to all, to punish you as you deserve and reward you as you deserve.
There is no doubt that Lu Xuan contributed the most to the Shangyuan Festival Rebellion. After that, there was Zhang Xiaojing who arrived first. After all, the bad guys he led wiped out all the bad guys and saved Li Longji's life. It was a real deal. He rescued the enemy and suppressed the rebellion.
Then Cui Qi of the Prince Guard led his troops into the formation, defeated the rebels, and solved the siege of the Imperial City. Jinwu Guard Chen Yunqiao went undercover to Li Linfu's rebel team, and took action at the critical moment to break Li Linfu's resistance... .
Lu Xuan estimated that it would take more than a day to compile the list of rewards.
"The delinquents of Wannian County have made meritorious service in protecting and suppressing rebellions in times of crisis. From today on, the delinquents of Wannian County will be promoted to the forbidden army of Chang'an City. They will be named Zhongyong and included in the seventh guard of Beiya. The delinquent commander Zhang Xiaojing will be appointed as General Zhongyongwei..."
Zhang Xiaojing rose to the top in one step. From a bad commander who was barely above the rank, he jumped directly to become the seventh guard of Beiya of the Chang'an City Forbidden Army. Although he is a general, he is not as good as Chen Xuanli's Longwu Army general, but he is still a real person. He is in the fourth rank. He has reached the sky in one step and can't help but envy others.
Next, Cui Qi of the Luben camp was promoted to the rank of Brigade Commander Qingyun, who was equivalent to the captain of the prince's personal guard. The real power seemed not to be great, but when the prince ascended the throne in the future, it would be logical for him to be the prince's captain. one person.
In addition, Yao Runeng, who appears in the original work, has an official position of Prince Right Guard. This official position is a fourth-grade military attache. In terms of rank, he is actually higher than Li Mi. However, Li Mi in the play is in charge of the Jing'an Division and has higher real power.
As for Chen Yunqiao, he was promoted from a Zhonglang general to Cao Shenjun of Youjinwu Guards. He has completely mastered the Youjinwu Guards lineage. The rewards of the above people are actually very heavy in terms of official positions. This is not the case. The solution was the Shangyuan Festival Rebellion. There were too many Forbidden Army military attachés implicated. A large number of manpower was urgently needed to be supplemented. At this time, naturally the ministers who had made contributions that night came first, and then were slowly promoted from below.
In addition to the rewards from several chief officials, their subordinates also received generous rewards. Promotions, promotions, and various rewards of gold, silver, heaven, earth, cloth, and silk were countless. Li Longji also suffered a heavy hemorrhage this time, so that everyone involved
All the rewarded soldiers returned home with a full load.
Finally it was Lu Xuan's turn.
The entire court fell silent, and everyone listened attentively, waiting to see how far this barbarian from the Western Region could go.
This is the second time they have seen Lu Xuan receive a reward in the court. But the previous time, it was of a strong entertainment nature. Watching a barbarian from the Western Regions, being a minor official, made everyone happy. But this time,
Everyone knows that after today, most people in the court will probably look up to this barbarian who they once made fun of.
"Prince Guards Lieutenant Lu Xuan, escorted him many times..." First, he described Lu Xuan's achievements that night. After all, most people don't know the details.
After hearing the eunuch's story, many courtiers realized that after Lu Xuan protected Li Longji from escaping from the imperial city that night, he actually experienced so many twists and turns. His rescue efforts along the way made all the courtiers unable to help but wonder.
I sigh with emotion, this barbarian is afraid that he will soar into the sky.
"The Great General of the Protectorate, commanding the Sixth Army of Beiya..."
Boom... There was a commotion above the court. Really, this reward is too heavy. The six armies of Beiya are divided into the left and right Yulin army, the left and right Longwu army, and the left and right Shenwu army. All belong to the emperor.
The personal guards, collectively known as the Sixth Army of Beiya, are responsible for protecting the emperor and the safety of the imperial city.
However, the six armies have always been in the hands of six generals, and there has never been a situation where one person was in charge of the six armies. However, now, Lu Xuan broke this tradition.
Although the word "protecting the country" sounds like some false official position, Lu Xuan actually commanded the Sixth Army of Bei Ya. This can be regarded as a rare thing in the court.
Little did he know that Lu Xuan was complaining in his heart. So what if he was in charge of six armies with one person? He only had more than 20,000 people at his left and right. You must know that in history, An Lushan served as the military governor of three places at the same time. He had hundreds of thousands of soldiers under his command. Compared with his own, he
Isn’t that even more nonsense? But that’s how the feudal dynasty was. With just a word from the emperor, some seemingly impossible things would immediately become logical.
In ancient times, when serving as an official, one would try to get as close to the capital as possible. Once in the capital, one would try to get as close to the saints as possible. The closer the person is, the more important the saint's family will be and the higher their status will be. And Lu Xuan, the great general who protects the country,
He is the military attache closest to the saint. This indicates that Lu Xuan is already one of Li Longji's most trusted people.
It's just that Lu Xuan is a little cold. Because he is actually not that interested in being a bodyguard for Li Longji. It would be better to give him a military attaché, so that he can have more freedom. What a pity, everyone else is trying their best.
Wanting to be an official in the capital, Lu Xuan actually wanted to go abroad.
However, it may be that his desperate guard performance last night was too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. In the end, he was given the position of the head of the emperor's guard. Lu Xuan didn't know whether he should cry or laugh. Maybe Li Longji was frightened. It must have been.
Only when Lu Xuan is by his side can he sleep peacefully.
In addition to General Qianniuwei, Lu Xuan also received the title of Viscount. However, it did not directly mention the fiefdom. I don’t know what happened if it hasn’t been decided yet. But the 1,400 acres of Yongye Field will be paid directly.
After that, he was given a purple gold fish bag and sealed with various grades. As for the other rewards of gold, silver, cloth and silk, they were countless.
