Chapter 1214 Wan Lianxing Rewards the Three Armies
Sui Dan pushed Sui Ying's hand away and said, "So are you still going to ask me to be a spy?"
"So are you a spy?" Suiying's expression was very serious.
Sui Dan's eyes widened with anger when he heard this. He shouted angrily, "Sui Ying, are you a human being? You suspected that I was a spy just because of Yan Shizhao's words. Don't you know whether I am a spy or not? Besides, who am I a spy for? Who hired me to be a spy?"
Suiying looked at Suidan's expression carefully. He knew that Suidan was not lying, so he grinned and said, "I was just kidding. Go to sleep. We have to get up early tomorrow to go back to the barracks."
"I'll tell you first, you'll punish me if I go back, but I won't go back." Sui Dan had a stern face. Although he didn't show much resistance, he looked very stubborn. He probably wouldn't go back if he said he wouldn't go back.
"We'll talk about tomorrow's affairs tomorrow. Keep your snake away from me first. I'll lose sleep if he stares at me like that."
Upon hearing this, Sui Dan stuffed the snake into his bed.
On the second day, it was obvious that with Sui Dan's character, he would never follow Sui Ying back, and Sui Ying also expected this. He had to make this trip because of the emperor's order. The emperor, who was far away in the military camp, also knew that this would be the result, but he could not remain indifferent to Yan Shizhao's affairs, so the burden of catching people and running errands fell on Sui Ying.
It's not that Sui Ying didn't have the ability to bring the person back. This matter inevitably made him hesitate. If he forcibly took the person back, the consequence would be that Sui Dan would definitely not be able to escape severe punishment. And if he went back empty-handed, he would probably be charged with incompetence and would probably be sentenced to thirty military punishments. After weighing the pros and cons again and again, he gritted his teeth and went back by himself.
On the way, Sui Dan was thinking about what kind of excuse he should make when he returned. But when he returned to the place where the army camped yesterday, their camp had disappeared. Sui Ying then remembered that Wan Lianxing said yesterday that they would continue to attack Chaizhou today. Thinking of this, Sui Ying reached out and touched his chin, thinking that the punishment for his poor performance might not come so soon. He laughed and followed the direction of the army's attack.
This battle lasted for seven days. During these seven days, Suiying was always around Wan Lianxing, but Wan Lianxing was concerned about military affairs and had no time for other things, especially trivial matters like Yan Shizhao, which he did not even mention.
But today was a special day, Wan Lianxing was rewarding the troops in the barracks, saying that there was plenty of fish and meat today, so they could eat whatever they wanted. So the soldiers who had just come down from the battlefield seemed to have forgotten the pain that the war had brought them, and they ate with open stomachs in the face of good wine and good food.
At the banquet, Sha Guanghan was the most proud. He said to Wan Lianxing: "Your Majesty, Chaizhou is divided into two halves, one half is the first seven cities, and the other half is the last four cities. Now the last four cities have all been taken into our begging! Congratulations, Your Majesty, congratulations!"
Wan Lianxing smiled and said, "That's all thanks to you soldiers! But we shouldn't be too proud too soon. We can take the city, but you have to defend it for me."
Sha Guanghan patted his chest confidently and said anything, "Your Majesty, I guarantee with my life that I can not only defend this city, but also continue to expand the territory I beg for. After the soldiers have a few days' rest, we will go straight to the first seven cities in Chaizhou. That is the real prosperous place in Chaizhou." Suddenly, Sha Guanghan changed his tone, "Your Majesty, have you asked Shang Xi to take care of my son Sha Yueteng's matter?"
Sha Yueteng sat at a table further back, and Sha Yuejin sat at a table next to Sha Yueteng. He leaned his head closer to Sha Yueteng and said in a low voice, "Brother, what do you want the emperor's niece-in-law to do for you?"
Sha Yueteng did not look at Sha Yuejin, his eyes were still on the corner of his desk, and he shook his head slightly. His father talked a lot with the emperor every day, and he did not know everything. He was the deputy general of the general and lived in the barracks every day. He could not think of anything that his father could ask someone to do for him, and he asked a woman to do it.
At this time, Wan Lianxing smiled and said, "My words are as good as gold! After we discussed this matter that day, I issued an imperial decree to Shang Xi within three days."
After hearing this, Sha Guanghan slapped his thigh heavily, as if the matter was settled, and said excitedly: "Your Majesty, will it be done soon?"
Wan Lianxing picked up the folding fan on the table and slowly unfolded it. After fanning it twice, he pretended to be mysterious and said, "Oh, my niece-in-law is very capable. She wrote back to me the same day I issued the decree."
Sha Guanghan's eyes widened when he heard this, "What did you say?"
Wan Lianxing smiled and said, "I offered a candidate, but I rejected him directly."
Sha Guanghan was extremely anxious: "Whose girl is this? Why is she rejected? How does she look? How is her family? How is her kung fu?"
Wan Lianxing said, "Old Sha, why are you so anxious? I attach great importance to your son Sha Yueteng's marriage. I have to carefully consider it. I can't just arrange a marriage casually. The points you mentioned must be met, otherwise it will not be worthy of your son. Old Sha, if you hadn't urged me so anxiously, I would have held a selection competition."
"How do you select them?"
Wan Lianxing said: "We will post a notice in our Fengqi, and all women of appropriate age can come and participate."
Sha Guanghan suddenly understood what he said, and praised him highly, "Your Majesty, this is a good idea! If Shang Xi can't find a suitable candidate, I think we should just select one!"
At this time, everyone in the big tent understood what the emperor and Sha Guanghan were talking about. Everyone looked at Sha Yueteng. The calm Sha Yueteng could no longer sit still. He looked at his father embarrassedly, "Dad, what are you and the emperor doing for this?"
Sha Guanghan said: "Tell me what you are afraid of. The emperor has already promised to help you choose a wife. As long as there is a suitable candidate, he will immediately issue an order to grant the marriage."
"Don't worry, Daddy!"
"You are not in a hurry, but Dad is. You are so old now. If you get married earlier, my grandson will be able to give me wine to drink by now."
"Dad! This is a celebration banquet, why are you saying this!" Yes, this is a celebration banquet. Sitting here are the emperor and the officials who always accompany the emperor, as well as the brave and capable generals in their military camp. Everyone laughed when they saw that his father was so eager to arrange a marriage for him. At this time, Sha Yueteng wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
"Whether you are in a hurry or not, you must get married this year. You have delayed your brother." Sha Guanghan has always been obsessed with his son's marriage. Most parents must be like this. No matter he is an ordinary citizen or a general guarding a place, he is destined to worry about his children.
