Female General And Eldest Princess

Lin Wanyue swallowed her saliva before replying: "Yes."

At this moment, Lin Wanyue seemed to be able to hear the beating sound of her heart, she slowly adjusted her breathing, calmed down her nervous mood, and then slowly raised her head...

Lin Wanyue raised her head, and saw Li Zhao whose temples were covered with frost, but whose gaze was still sharp, she quickly lowered her eyes to avoid Tianyan.

Li Zhao sized Lin Wanyue up, took a look at the case in front of him, and said, "Okay! Sure enough, a hero is born as a boy. I didn't expect there to be such a suave boy in the barracks."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Lin Wanyue felt that there were several eyes in the hall looking at her, and it was the first time in her life that she received a compliment on her appearance, and she couldn't help feeling hot. Fortunately, it was hard for others to notice her dark skin, otherwise she would be shy...

"Young man, you saved the most beloved princess of the widow, and took the painstaking efforts to escort the princess back to Beijing safely. You have done a lot of credit. Tell me, what do you want the widow to reward you?"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, this is all a villain's job, I dare not ask for a reward."

"Well...well, take credit and not be proud, but if you have meritorious service, you must be rewarded, and if you have done something, you must be punished. Let me think about it... There is a vacancy for the position of Jingdu Lieutenant, why don't I appoint you as Jingdu Lieutenant, how about it? "

As soon as Li Zhao said this, the faces of the people in the field changed: Although the rank of Jingdu Lieutenant is not high, it is a very important position. The dispatch of the capital's chariots and horses, and the deployment of Jingwei's defenses are all in the hands of the Jingdu Lieutenant. Responsible, when there was a vacancy in the capital, King Yong, King Chu, and even King Qi each recommended candidates. Later, because of the death of Concubine Liang, and the assassination of Li Xian, Li Zhao had no time to think about it, so he delayed the appointment. up.

It's just that everyone present didn't expect that Li Zhao would bring up the old matter again at this time, which caught them off guard, and actually handed over such an important position to an "outsider"!

Li Xian's gaze flickered, and she looked at Lin Wanyue from afar.

Li Zhao, who was in a high position, had already seen the changes in the expressions of the people in the field. He looked at Lin Wanyue calmly, as if he was not in a hurry, and patiently waited for Lin Wanyue's reply.

Lin Wanyue lowered her head slightly. She didn't know the rank of Lieutenant Jingdu, but judging from these three words, it should be a very important position.

Lin Wanyue wanted to turn her head to look at Li Xian, to see if Li Xian could give her some advice, but she forcibly held back, and at this time she could only rely on herself.

Lin Wanyue closed her eyes, and opened them slowly after a while.

Li Zhao also looked at Lin Wanyue with interest, waiting for her answer.

"The villain thanked His Majesty for his trust in the villain, but the position of Lieutenant Jingdu is really not what the villain wants. He has failed His Majesty's expectations. The villain deserves death. Please take it back."

After speaking, Lin Wanyue bowed down on her knees.His hands were stretched out straight in front of him, his sleeves were spread out, and his forehead was pressed against the cold ground.

As soon as Lin Wanyue said these words, several princes showed expressions of relief, Li Xian's expression was still indifferent, looking at Lin Wanyue from a distance, her eyes were full of water.

"Lin Feixing, do you know how many people can't get the position of Captain Jingdu? Or do you have a better plan? Get up and tell me what you want."

"Thank you Your Majesty, Your Majesty will report that the villain is from Xiachanjuan Village, Daze County. In the autumn of the 26th year of Yuanding, the villain was 14 years old. That day he went to the mountains to collect medicine for fun, but the Huns came and killed all 110 people in my village. , all the old and young in the village, including the villain's parents and sister, were killed and no one was spared. The villain took care of the funeral, walked hundreds of miles, and joined the army under the tent of General Li Mu. The general saw that the villain was pitiful, and helped the villain Changed the military household to take the villain into the barracks. Now more than two years have passed. Although time has passed, Feixing dare not forget his original intention for a moment. The villain only wants to use this humble body to defend the frontier to the death, fight the Huns bloody, and fight for my whole body. The eight members of the village 110 seek back this bloody feud, and they also want to do their best to protect the people there, so that they will not repeat the mistakes of Feixing! Please forgive me, Feixing can't bear the heavy responsibility of Jingdu Lieutenant. Not here!"

After listening to Lin Wanyue's explanation quietly, Li Zhao was a little moved when he saw the dark-skinned and stubborn young man standing under the stage.

"Okay! Well said! If my son from Liguo has your arrogance, who else would dare to covet Liguo? Who else would dare to invade my frontier? Good!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Lin Wanyue cupped her hands, but she had another thought in her heart: what she just said just now can be regarded as an answer to the princess's question...

"Hahahaha, very good, very good, the widow is just as you wish!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"However, you are in Uncle Guo's military camp. I can't say anything about this military affairs. General Li Mu is fully responsible for the appointment and transfer of personnel. I trust him and don't want to interfere. If this is the case, I can't reward you." What official position..."

"The villain doesn't care what position he holds. As long as he can fight the Huns, the villain will be satisfied. Besides, the commander will reward and punish him. I believe that one day the villain will be honored with military merits!"

"Okay, I have ambition, but you are always a villain who claims to be a widow. Although a widow can't meddle in military affairs at will, it doesn't mean that a widow will not reward you. Lin Feixing accepts the order."

"The little guy is here!"

"Lin Feixing, you are not proud of your credit, you have lofty aspirations, and you have won my heart. Besides, you have done a lot of service in escorting the eldest princess back to Beijing. I will reward you with a thousand households and give you three generations. Wait for the day, do you really agree?" After today's bold words, I can be honored with military merits, remember to come to the capital to see the widow, and the widow will be rewarded! Hahahahaha..."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Remember everything?" Li Zhao turned to the eunuch in charge and asked.

"Return to Your Majesty, write it down, the old slave will let the inner court draw up the decree."

"Ah."

Li Zhao nodded in satisfaction, and then said to Lin Wanyue: "Lin Feixing, now that you have a town with thousands of households, you don't need to call yourself a villain anymore, hahahaha!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Okay, take your seat, come on, let's start the banquet!"

After Li Zhao's words fell, from outside the main hall, several slim palace maids with trays in their hands entered first, then several musicians came in carrying chime bells and other musical instruments, and the last one came in was the singing and dancing girl.

The palace maid first knelt in front of Li Zhao's case, placed the nine tripods and eight guis one by one on it, then got up from the ground, bowed and pushed them away.

Fu knelt down in front of Li Zhu's case again, and arranged the Eight Tripods and Seven Guis neatly.

Next came the feudal kings and princesses below the high platform.

Seven tripods and six gui were placed on the adult vassal king's case, and the number of Li Xian's enjoyment of the vassal king's gift case was the same as that of the adult vassal king.

The underage prince Li Pei is only worthy of six tripods and five cups, and Li Yan only has five tripods and four cups in front of him.

When the court ladies walked up to Lin Wanyue, they were in trouble. It was the father-in-law next to Li Zhao who gave him a wink. He bent down to Li Zhao's ear and asked in a low voice, "Your Majesty, how much does Lin Qianhu give you?" tripod?"

Li Zhao looked up and said, "Give me three tripods!"

"Open the table!"

With a wave of Li Zhao's sleeves, the ceremony and music played, and the eight-row singing and dancing girl twisted her slender waist and came to the main hall. She lightly raised her sleeves and twisted her waist to the music.

Lin Wanyue looked flattered and pretended in front of her: the tripartite cauldron of suckling pig, dried fish, and dried meat was as unreal as if she was in a dream, and eating with a cauldron was something she had never even dared to think about until today.

Lin Wanyue reached out her hand towards the table but didn't know how to start. She looked at Li Xian's food table, wanting to see how Li Xian did it.

But I saw that on Li Xian's case, there were seven square tripods containing: beef, mutton, suckling pig, dried fish, dried meat, animal tripe, and pork.

And there are: polished rice, white flour steamed buns, three kinds of pastries that she can't name, and even a seven-gui soup and a fruit...

Looking at this dazzling array of food, Lin Wanyue felt a little dizzy...

Li Xian also felt Lin Wanyue's eyes on her, showing a faint smile. She took the knife on the table, lightly sliced ​​the mutton in the cauldron, and then held it with green onion fingers Sliced ​​meat, put it in your mouth.

Lin Wanyue witnessed the steps of Li Xian's meal, touched the case, and found that there was indeed a small knife between the two tripods.

Lin Wanyue was overjoyed, took the knife, followed Li Xian's example, and cut a few knives on the suckling pig that was burnt golden and translucent, and the aroma was rushing towards her face, then picked it up with her hand and put it in her mouth.

The smell of meat immediately permeated her lips and teeth, Lin Wanyue chewed the suckling pig in her mouth, squinting her eyes with an expression of enjoyment.

Really delicious!

As soon as Li Xian turned her head, Lin Wanyue's expression caught her eyes, she couldn't help smiling, thinking of this man's hard life in the military camp, her heart softened, and she called the maid behind her to come over.

"What are your orders, Your Highness?"

"Bring a dish, cut some meat from these three animals, and give it to Lin Qianhu."

"Here."

The palace maid took the dish and knelt beside Li Xian's case, ready to cut with a knife.

But Li Xian said again: "I don't have much appetite, cut more."

"Here!"

The palace maid cut a large piece of beef, mutton, and pork each and put them on a plate, then got up, and knelt down to Lin Wanyue's desk again.

Seeing the servant girl kneeling beside her desk, Lin Wanyue, who was feasting, froze involuntarily. She still couldn't get used to being kneeled by others...

"Lin Qianhu, Your Highness rewards you with three meats."

The palace maid politely pushed the plate in front of Lin Wanyue, then bowed to Lin Wanyue before getting up and retreating to the back.

"Thank you, princess." Lin Wanyue turned sideways and cupped her hands towards Li Xian.

Li Xian smiled slightly, and replied in a low voice: "Fei Xing doesn't need to be too polite, just enjoy it to your heart's content, if it's not enough, then tell me about it."

Hearing Li Xian's words, Lin Wanyue blushed, and rubbed her nose embarrassingly: I am afraid that my appetite has left a deep impression on Her Royal Highness...

Liguo has a strict ritual and music system. Beef and mutton are only allowed to be used in sacrifices among the people. If you eat them without permission, you will be beheaded. , but the price of beef and mutton among the people is not low, especially cattle are the lifeblood of farmers, so few people will be so extravagant at the wedding banquet.

Lin Wanyue has lived for 16 years and has never eaten beef or mutton. Thanks to Li Xian's blessing today, she is considered unprecedented!

For the vassals of all walks of life, it is no surprise that they eat too much of this kind of food. After taking a few symbolic mouthfuls, they start to order people to pour wine, raise the wine bottle to respect Li Zhao's wine or Drink at your own discretion.

Some play festivals and tunes, and some enjoy singing and dancing.

In the entire hall, only Lin Wanyue was immersed in the delicious food in front of her without raising her eyes from the beginning to the end.

Li Xian looked at Lin Feixing, and saw that the three animals she rewarded were wiped out, and then saw that the food in the other three square tripods had also run out. Li Xian was a little shocked: Lin Feixing actually eats more than she imagined. big!

Li Xian had to look Lin Wanyue up and down again, wondering in her heart: how could this thin person eat so much meat in one go?

Li Xian was afraid that Lin Wanyue would hurt her spleen and stomach by only eating meat, so she specially called the maid behind her to fill some of the cooked vegetables and fruits in front of her, and gave them to Lin Wanyue...

As a result, these things were swept away by Lin Wanyue one by one, leaving nothing...
