rebirth will be hard to find

Before returning to Beijing to become the emperor's husband, Cheng Zian was promoted again.

It is imperative for Chu and Yan to negotiate a peace, so with the recovery of the lost land, this war can be considered to have come to an end, so the matter of meritorious deeds and rewards has also been put on the agenda.

Qi Yang is a fair person. He remembers all the military exploits of his generals clearly, and it is even more clear at a glance when they are sent to Chu Yi after the statistics are collected.So after seeing it, Chu Yi chose a good day with a clear sky, and began to discuss meritorious deeds and rewards in front of the soldiers of the three armies on the school grounds of Yanyang City.

In this battle, Qi Yang first lost four cities and seven towns and fled. He should have been punished.However, he led the army to defend Yanyang City, and now all the lost land has been regained, so the merits and demerits are offset. Chu Yi did not pursue the matter of him abandoning the city and fleeing before, and he was no longer promoted. He only rewarded some gold and silver Fields are counted as rewards.

Qi Yang has no objection to this.Although it was a great achievement for him to defend Beizhou and lead the army to defeat the Yan army, it is an indisputable fact that he abandoned the city and fled before.According to Chu law, it is a felony for all lieutenant soldiers to flee without fighting and may be punished by beheading.It is conceivable that when the news of his abandonment of the city was introduced to the capital, how many people in the court would go up to kill him. Chu Yi's ability to suppress the public's opinion and keep him is already trusting him.

But under Qi Yang, the rest of the generals were truly rewarded.Battle after battle, a sum of military merits was settled, and most of the people were promoted to a small level, and received a lot of rewards.Among them, the rewards of two people are the most eye-catching. One is Dingyuan General Hong Yong, who led the troops to recover the lost land.The other one is Cheng Zian, because she succeeded in assassinating the enemy's commander, she was also promoted two ranks, from Zhenwei Captain to Ranger General.

No one questioned Hong Yong's award, even if the fight was easy this time, regaining the lost ground was indeed a great achievement.But for Cheng Zian's award, some people feel dissatisfied in private, and there are many discussions - it's not that the credit for killing the enemy's commander is not high enough, but why Cheng Zian can kill the enemy's commander, many people are questioning .

To this day, many people know what happened on New Year's Eve.Although under Chu Yi's concealment, most people in the Beizhou Army did not know that Cheng Zian was trapped in the enemy camp, but she led eight hundred elites to attack the enemy camp at night, and finally the entire army was wiped out and only she came back alone. , but can't hide it from anyone.So the question is, why is she still alive when everyone is dead?Not only is she still alive, but she can kill King Kwang Binh? !

Everyone could only think of one answer to such a question: because her father, Cheng Qian, was Yan Jun's deputy commander at the time!The father and son worked together inside and outside, and Cheng Jie killed King Guangping so that Cheng Qian could become the coach, and Cheng Qian also gave this great credit to Cheng Jie!

It has to be said that such speculation is not completely unreasonable, and it is not even very far from the truth.At least it was because of Cheng Qian that Cheng Zian came back alive, otherwise she wouldn't be the only accident among those 800 people.

Such doubts and guesses have been around for a long time, and because of this, Chu Yi has been detaining Cheng Zian by his side recently, fearing that she will be sad when she hears these rumors.

But on this day, because of the reward for Cheng Zian, these things were still made public.A young general stood up on the spot and said: "Your Majesty, Cheng Jie's father is a traitor, and now he is the commander of the Yan Army! He is really untrustworthy, and he should not be rewarded like this. In order to prevent his father and son from colluding, please give me your honor." The order was to expel him from the barracks."

This time, Cheng Zian did not stand next to Chu Yi when it came to meritorious deeds. She stood under the high platform like everyone else, looking up at Chu Yi on the high platform.

Chu Yi caught a glimpse of Cheng Zian in the crowd at a glance. Her expression was calm, and she was not sad or resentful. It seemed that everything was in her expectation.

Cheng Zian didn't care, but Chu Yi couldn't tolerate such doubts, so she raised her voice and asked the young general: "Do you think Cheng Qian can't deserve such a reward because she didn't deserve enough credit for killing the enemy's commander? "

The young general was stunned for a moment, and then replied sincerely: "No, the last general is just..."

Chu Yi didn't wait for him to finish, and said again: "Then you think that the commander of the first army can kill anyone? Like you?"

The young general immediately shook his head and said, "The last general can't do it."

So Chu Yi said again: "Since that's the case, why do you question her credit?" After she finished speaking, she glanced at the soldiers under the high platform, and continued: "I know that you are all talking in private, the reason why Cheng Jie was able to kill her King Guangping, it was because her father was the deputy commander of the Yan Army at that time, and they succeeded by cooperating with each other. Regardless of whether this guess is true or not, I just ask, if it were you, no matter what the means, would you have a way to kill her? King Guangping?"

The death of King Guangping was an extremely important opportunity for Chu State.Before his death, Yan State had no intention of withdrawing troops to discuss peace, but his death indirectly brought about such a result.Because the people of Yan State are not at ease to put hundreds of thousands of troops in the hands of a surrendered general like Cheng Qian, and it is really not a good choice to change generals one after another before the battle, and the domestic disaster is involved, which finally caused Yan State to withdraw troops and discuss peace ending.

Some knowledgeable people can think of this, and even those who have no knowledge, who have been soldiers in this military camp for these years, can understand what the commander means to the army.

But Chu Yi's rhetoric is obviously not convincing. For example, the young general said again: "The general knows that this credit is not small, but the general can't trust Cheng Jie, and as a colleague with him, I am afraid that he will one day He defected to the enemy just like his father!" After a short pause, he continued: "His father is now in a high position in the country of Yan, how could he know that he would not defect to him because of his greed for power."

Chu Yi was so annoyed by his words, if Cheng Zian was not a daughter, she would have taken off her clothes and let these people see her bruises all over her body!However, she could only suppress her anger in the end, and said coldly: "You are afraid, but I am not! I have known her since we were young, I know her character well, and I trust her even more!"

There was a silence on the school grounds, the emperor had already expressed his position, and no one dared to say anything for a while.

Chu Yi glanced coldly across the four directions, then turned around and left in a huff.After getting off the high platform, she even dragged Cheng Zian away.

******************************************************************************

"Ah Chu, are you angry?" Cheng Zian asked Chu Yi on the way back.

Chu Yi glanced at her, and said angrily, "Aren't you angry?"

Chu Yi thought that it was already very ostentatious for her to bring Cheng Zian in and out together, and anyone with a wink should know that she has a lot of trust in Cheng Zian.However, some people came forward to question the award today, but Cheng Zian looked like he didn't care about it, which made her feel a little annoyed.

Cheng Zian still didn't care, and still had the mood to comfort Chu Yi: "I'm not angry, so don't be angry, Ah Chu. I knew this day would come from the moment I knew he was treasonous." She He paused, and then said: "Actually, I heard similar things a long time ago. It's just that I had the confidence to refute back then, but I don't have it now."

Although Cheng Zian spoke lightly, after hearing her words, Chu Yi inexplicably felt a little sad.In fact, Cheng Zian has been thinking about rehabilitating Cheng Qian and revitalizing the Cheng family all these years, maybe it has something to do with the words he heard before?

Youyou's mouth is always difficult to stop, Chu Yi was silent for a while, and then said: "No matter what, I always believe you."

Cheng Zian then laughed, and when she turned around, Chu Yi's figure was reflected in her warm brown eyes: "I know. I'm also glad that you are the emperor of Chu now."

After all, Cheng Qian's choice was too selfish.Although it has been more than ten years since he defected to the enemy and treasoned the country, it can be considered that the times have changed, but at the beginning Emperor Yanping only looked at Cheng Yuan's face to let the Cheng family go, otherwise it would not be an exaggeration to confiscate the family and exterminate the family.If the person on the throne at this time is not Chu Yi, once the news that he is helping the Yan State to attack the Chu State comes out, then the Cheng family will be doomed!

Fortunately, fortunately, the current emperor is Chu Yi, and fortunately Chu Yi trusts her enough.

Cheng Zian's mentality is better than Chu Yi's. Seeing her like this, Chu Yi inevitably poured some cold water on him first: "I believe in you, but Youyou's mouth is hard to stop. Don't talk about the attitude of these people in the military camp, just talk about the attitude of the court. Which group of censors... have you thought about what will happen in the future?"

Cheng Zian blinked his eyes and said, "Didn't you say that you told me not to come back and stay in the capital to be your husband? Then what does it matter if these people in the Beizhou Army believe me or not?"

Chu Yi was taken aback when she heard the words. When she said this to Cheng Zian before, Cheng Zian didn't respond.Chu Yi also knew the pride engraved in the young man's bones, so he didn't feel surprised or disappointed, but now the boy Zi'an meant...agreed?

At this moment when Chu Yi was in a daze, Cheng Zian frowned and said, "It's Yushi's place..."

In an instant, Her Majesty the Empress was so ambitious that she almost slapped her chest and promised: "Leave the Yushi to me, don't worry!"

Cheng Zian relaxed his brows and said "Okay", but he couldn't help but sigh in his heart—with Cheng Qian joining Yan State, she was destined to be unable to survive in Beizhou, and no one would trust her easily.And it is not easy to be worthy of Chu Yi in her capacity, and with Cheng Qian's matter, I am afraid it will add a lot of trouble.

One must know that the status of the emperor's husband is more sought-after than the queen's. After becoming the emperor's husband, their descendants will even be able to ascend to the Great Treasure in the future!Since Chu Yi ascended the throne, I don't know how many people have been staring at the position of imperial concubine. Her status is not worthy of Chu Yi, and the matter of Cheng Qian has left the best for others. handle……

The more he thought about it, the more worried he became. At this moment, a hand suddenly reached out and took Cheng Zian's arm, and Chu Yi's voice sounded: "Don't think so much, anyway, leave the affairs of the capital to me." .”
