"as you wish."

Li Xun reached out and waved his hand, and Jiang Daxiong beside him immediately picked up a tray from behind. On it were three sets of official uniforms, official seals, and at the top, the official appointment document of the imperial court.

Yu Zhong stepped forward and took the tray. Yu Yanhui picked up the document on the top and opened it. He saw Yu Yanhui, the defense envoy, Wang Jiming, the deputy defense envoy, Shan Qiu, and underneath there was an approval written by the emperor.

After reading it, Yu Yanhui suddenly had a look of joy on his face that could not be concealed. Yu Zhong, who was standing aside, stretched his head and looked around. When he saw the three names, although he had known this result, his mood changed.

I'm still a little depressed, but I don't blame my eldest brother Yu Yanhui for being overweight. The three of them grew up together and joined the army together. They are brothers and sisters. Although they are not related by blood, they are closer than real brothers. Wang Jiming's prestige in the army is indeed higher than his own.

Many, and more importantly, he and Yu Yanhui are brothers of the same clan. If they are both the chief and deputy envoys of the same state, it would be unreasonable for them to be private and public.

Li Xun glanced at everyone and said loudly: "In this battle, Yu Yanhui and his troops made great contributions. The court has already given a reward. Yu Yanhui was appointed as the Shazhou Defense Envoy, and Wang Jiming and Shan Qiu were appointed as the Deputy Defense Envoys.

."

Yu Yanhui put away the appointment document, half-knelt on the ground, and saluted Li Xun heavily: "Thank you very much, Governor, for the promotion. Yu Yanhui is deeply grateful."

Li Xun waved his hand and chuckled: "General Yu, there is no need to be polite, you deserve this."

Yu Yanhui stood up and sat down again. The excited smile on his face did not disappear for a long time.

The conversation between the two people immediately shocked everyone present. After fighting with the bandits, Yu Yanhui was directly promoted to a fourth-level defense envoy and was in charge of the military of a state. This was far beyond everyone's expectations.

Han Lin was stunned, and it took him a while to come back to his senses. He looked at Yu Yanhui, who was beaming with joy. He finally understood why Yu Yanhui suddenly changed his attitude and obeyed Li Xun. It turned out that this was the case.

thing.

Thinking of this, Han Lin's mood suddenly became complicated, and with deep jealousy, he stood up, raised his hands to Li Xun and said: "Captain, we have also contributed a lot, what arrangements does the court have for us?"

Li Xun glanced at Han Lin and said softly: "I have already reported the detailed battle situation and requests for rewards to those who have made meritorious deeds to the court. As for who will receive rewards and who will not, that is not up to me."

Li Xun's words were somewhat ambiguous and were obviously perfunctory.

"I believe the court will be able to make a fair decision."

Li Xun smiled and said: "The court's decision is naturally fair. Doesn't General Han have any doubts about this? Lord Supervisor is joking. How can the general dare to slander the court?"

Han Lin laughed twice and sat down.

Li Xun stood up, glanced at everyone present, and said loudly: "Those who have received awards must not be arrogant and conceited. They should continue to work hard, make new achievements, and serve the court. Those who have not received awards should not be discouraged. There are many opportunities."

Yes, if anyone makes merit in the future, I, Li Xun, will be fair and impartial and report it to the court to ask for credit."

The meaning of Li Xun's words was very obvious. Everyone could hear it. I am the governor of Wuzhou. Without my recommendation, merit will be in vain. What should be done without merit can become merit. What to do is entirely up to me.

Calculate.

"I served my life for the Governor!"

The seven or eight officers belonging to Yu Yanhui's group were all excited after hearing Li Xun's words. Under the leadership of Yu Yanhui, they all stood up and bowed to Li Xun.

Looking at everyone's expressions, Li Xun nodded with a smile on his face, while everyone on Han Lin's side had expressions of abject envy on their faces.

Han Lin glanced at Li Xun and had a deep wry smile on his face. Yu Yanhui took refuge in Li Xun and was immediately rewarded and promoted. This effect was so shocking that once the matter spread to Wuzhou, it would probably cause a huge stir.

of vibration.

Things here in Suzhou are over, and Li Xun is preparing to lead the army back to Wuzhou.

Two days before leaving, Li Xun sent someone to the Governor's Mansion to report some information to Wang Renzhi, mainly some of the property obtained from the bandit suppression. Of course, Li Xun would not be stupid enough to tell the truth.

The number told Wang Renzhi that after all, according to regulations, most of the property seized through the war had to be handed over, and there was also the issue of the placement of prisoners. After all, there were tens of thousands of prisoners, and it was impossible for them all to be taken to Wuzhou. Li Xun

It can't feed so many people.

Li Xun looked at the letter in his hand. This was Wang Renzhi's reply.

Wang Renzircon listed a number in the letter, 10,000 taels of gold, 50,000 taels of silver, and other various supplies, leaving half of the prisoners. Finally, Wang Renzircon made it clear that he would hand over all these things to the court and

Please give credit to Li Xun.

"Boss, what did Wang Renzhi say in the letter? Is he asking you for money?"

Jiang Daxiong asked aloud.

Li Xun put away the letter without replying. He thought for a moment, and finally handed the letter to Jiang Daxiong and ordered: "Give the letter to Yuan He and let him do what Wang Renzhi wants."

This money is almost 20% of the property Li Xun gained from the bandit suppression this time, and as a foreign aid, if the court did not say it, he would be shameless and would not hand over the money. But Wang Renzhi could not do it.

Regardless of whether it was his fault or not, he was determined to be ineffective in suppressing bandits. He wanted people and things from Li Xun just to pay for his crimes with merit. Li Xun decided to give Wang Renzhi this face.

Jiang Daxiong took the letter, nodded, and walked away.

Li Xun stood up and shouted: "Here comes someone."

Hou Quan entered the tent and knelt down on one knee: "Please give me your orders, Captain."

Hou Quan took the risk and sneaked into Fuyang County to deliver the news. Due to his merit, he was promoted to captain by Li Xun. As the governor of a state, Li Xun had some privileges, that is, he could directly promote his subordinates to official positions without going through the court. Of course, this

There are also quantity and grade restrictions, only for generals and below.

Li Xun stood up and gave the order: "Pass this order to me. Except for Yuan He and his 1,000 soldiers who stayed behind, the rest of the tribes will immediately break out of their strongholds and set off to return to Wuzhou."

"Yes, Governor."

Hou Quan bowed his head, stood up and left.

After nearly a month of fighting, Li Xun finally returned.

Some people were disappointed and some were happy about Li Xun's return.

Yu Yanhui did not return to Wuzhou. He had just been named Shazhou Defense Envoy and directly led his four thousand soldiers to Shazhou.

Wu Heng just returned to Wuzhou from Fengjing a few days ago. The King of Chu actually did not want him to continue serving in Wuzhou. He hoped that he could transfer to another place. The current situation in the court seemed calm as water, but it was actually very subtle. King Chu

I don't want to end up involving myself and the King of Qi because of the conflict between Wu Heng and Li Xun at this time.

But Wu Heng did not admit defeat, and was somewhat dissatisfied with the advice of the King of Chu. Of course, the most important thing was that several courtiers wrote letters suggesting that Wu Heng be transferred to other posts, but Zhao Zhi directly rejected it. Therefore, regardless of Wu Heng's wishes,
