Husband and Father Youwei

Going to the front line is naturally different from when he was in the guard. In the past three years, Tu Lin has never returned home. The good news of Tu Lin's promotion and promotion will come back, letting Ruan Tang and the others know that Tu Lin has always been safe.

During the period, taking the opportunity of donating food and supplies, Ruan Tang also went to the front line in person and met Tu Lin, but he only stayed for one night, and was driven back by Tu Lin the next day.Although the place where Ruan Tang went was not the front line, it was not too far away. According to Tu Lin, there would often be barbarian squads coming to sneak attacks, so it was not safe.

Ruan Tang just wanted to see Tu Lin in person, not to make trouble for Tu Lin, so he didn't stay any longer, and left with the convoy after all the food and supplies delivered the next day were put down.

It took another year or so before the news of the truce between the Great Zhou and the Nanman finally came. At the same time, there was also a letter from Tu Lin, asking Ruan Tang to pack his bags and take Tu An and Tu Jiaojiao with him. , go to a certain place, meet him and go to Beijing together.After three years of fighting, Tu Lin is no longer the small family with only a hundred or so people under his command. Now he has thousands of soldiers and horses in his hands. Commanding frugal affairs is two levels higher than that of Xue Qianhu.

Back then, Xue Jingnian had received a lot of credit for having such a subordinate with outstanding military exploits like him. In addition, he himself was also extremely brave and good at fighting. After being promoted several times, he is now the commanding officer of the third-rank guard, but he is still above Tu Lin.However, because of Tu Lin's greatest achievement, that is, he led an elite team of 20 people, sneaked into the enemy's rear, burned all the enemy's food and grass with gasoline, and captured the enemy's marshal with his own hands. He has fought this war that lasted for three years, and he has not been rewarded for his meritorious deeds, so it may not be impossible for him to surpass Xue Jingnian in the future.

And the reason why this credit has not yet been awarded is because the five army governor's mansion does not know how to reward Tu Lin.It stands to reason that such a great achievement should not be overrated, but Tu Lin is still too young, and his promotion speed is too fast, so some people feel that something is wrong.

In the end the emperor found out about this, and after reading Tu Lin's resume, he couldn't help becoming very interested in him, so he issued an imperial decree to let Tu Lin and his family come to Beijing for an audience, and then he would personally discuss his merits Reward.Because according to the emperor's will, Tu Lin and his family were to enter the capital together, but the army's squadron could not be delayed, and Tu Lin could not let go of his duties and leave the team, so Ruan Tang could only let Ruan Tang take his two children to the north of the army to enter the capital ahead of time. Waiting at the necessary place, and then the two will meet and walk together again.

When Ruan Tang received Tu Lin's letter, no matter how surprised he was, he didn't waste a moment and started to pack his things for the trip. At the same time, he also made arrangements for everything at home. After all, it would take him a few months to go out this time.Fortunately, Su Bai is still there. Three years later, he is still in the Tujia Academy, but now he is no longer a teacher, but has been expanded several times in the past few years, and he can be said to be the dean of the academy.

As for him and Yuan Rui, because Yuan Rui has never changed his original mind, he only sticks to him and has no intention of marrying another.Su Bai's heart wasn't made of stone, and he had gotten used to Yuan Rui's presence over the years, and didn't want to consume Yuan Rui any longer, so the two got married a year ago.It's just that Xu Shi's time is still short, and the two have never had any children.

This time when he went to Beijing, Ruan Tang originally wanted Su Bai to go with him, but Su Bai didn't want to be exhausted, so he stayed at home and guarded the house for him.With Su Bai and Yuan Rui around, Ruan Tang naturally couldn't be more at ease, so he took away Liu Bao who was originally planning to stay to watch the house, and brought a dozen or so servants and guards with him.

Although there were only three of them, they had a long journey north and needed to prepare a lot of things. When they finally went out, there were seven or eight carriages lined up in a long line.Due to the large number of people and luggage, Ruan Tang and the others did not leave fast. After arriving at the gathering place that Tu Lin had agreed to gather, they waited for two more people before arriving at Tu Lin's army.

Ruan Tang had already had people guarding the official road, and as soon as he saw the army appearing, he stepped forward and reported his identity, and soon after, Tu Lin rode his horse and appeared from behind the army.According to the rules, Tu Lin was not allowed to leave the team, but he was the one whom the emperor wanted to see by name, and he was only reuniting with his family in the city, so the commander-in-chief didn't stop him, and let him go happily.

The army temporarily camped outside the city for the night, while Tu Lin rode into the city to the inn where Ruan Tang and the others stayed, and found the three of them.I haven't seen each other for three years, and the two children have changed a lot. Although Ruan Tang used his mobile phone to secretly take photos of the two children for him when he went to find him, but seeing people now is far from just looking at the photos. Than.

Tu An is 14 years old this year, his appearance is mostly passed down from his mother, and he has only two or three similarities with Tu Lin, very handsome.He is a gentle and humble person, with a smile on his lips, he looks very close to others, which is very similar to Ruan Tang, and he has studied in Chongwen Academy for many years, and he has a strong smell all over his body At first glance, he looks like a gentle and gentle scholar, but only close family members like Tu Lin and Ruan Tang know that his strong body and vigorous hands hidden under the robe are not inferior to Tu Lin. Lin's soldiers.

Although Tu Jiaojiao hadn't seen Tu Lin for three years, she had already remembered when Tu Lin left home, so she wouldn't be a stranger to Tu Lin, plus her extroverted temperament, so when she saw Tu Lin, she greeted her happily. He rushed forward, and Tu Lin naturally caught his daughter.The whole family sat around and talked, but mostly it was Tu Jiaojiao who was talking, her clear and sweet voice was still a little childish, talking about what she ate and did when Tu Lin was not at home, talking about her What have you learned in the college, what good friends have you made, etc.

Although she had written many family letters to Tu Lin with the help of Ruan Tang and Tu An, writing them on paper was different from saying it herself.Tu Lin felt ashamed for missing the company of his child for three years, and pampered his child a little more than Ruan Tang and Tu An, so he patiently listened to what Tu Jiaojiao had to say.

This said, it took a full hour until it was getting late and Du Jiaojiao was a little sleepy, so Ruan Tang was sent back to the bedroom to rest.Tu Lin then talked to Tu An again, but Tu An has been more sensible than his peers since he was a child, and now he is more stable and considerate when he is older, so he doesn't talk to Tu Lin about trivial things like Tu Jiaojiao, just picking up More importantly, he also asked about Tu Lin's life in the barracks.

The father and son chatted for a while, until Ruan Tang settled down and Tu Jiaojiao came back, Tu An got up and said good night, leaving time for Tu Lin and Ruan Tang.It was getting late at this time, and it would be a long time in the future, and there was still a long way to go tomorrow, so Tu Lin and Ruan Tang didn't say anything, and soon went to bed.

The next day when the army set out, Ruan Tang and his convoy were more accompanying, and Tu Lin didn't bring his soldiers any more, and went with Ruan Tang and his team together.On the way, they visited some places that Tu Lin had been to when he was walking the darts, and Tu Lin introduced them to Ruan Tang and the two children.After traveling like this for nearly three months, they finally arrived in the capital.

From far away, before reaching the gate of the city, he saw common people, Chinese and military officials, and royal family members coming out of the city for several miles to greet him. Tu Lin spoke to Ruan Tang, and then drove back to his queue , together with the army.

Because the emperor is old and his health is not good in recent years, he never went out to respond in person, and the emperor has a deep affection for the empress, and there is no concubine in the harem except the empress, and although the empress has been in love for more than [-] years, the empress is still in love with her. But there is no son or daughter.In order to have successors to Da Zhou Guozuo, the emperor took several sons of his clan into the palace to be educated, and they were already candidates for the crown prince.

These were all found out by Tu Lin after he learned that the emperor had summoned him to Beijing for an audience. He also learned that there were originally eight sons of the clan in the palace, but these eight died of illness. Either accidentally disabled, or convicted and demoted, now only the second son of Prince Ning, the third son of Prince Hui, and the eldest grandson of Prince Duan are left.

Among them, Zhao Wei, the second son of Prince Ning, is handsome and has a gentle temperament, which is easy to make people feel good about him. However, Zhao Qi, Prince Hui, is not like his name at all. He has a very tough face and a tall figure. It is found that he has extremely thick calluses on his tiger's mouth, he should be a person who is good at martial arts. As for Duan Wangsun Zhao Xu, if his appearance, appearance, and temperament are better than ordinary people, but compared with the first two uncles, he seems a bit inconspicuous .

The three princes greeted the army on behalf of the heavens, and they all knew that Tu Lin was the person whom the emperor called to meet, so they specially called Tu Lin's family to speak in front of them, and they didn't have any arrogance towards Tu Lin. Especially Prince Hui, Zhao Qi, admired Tu Lin very much, and asked about Tu Lin on the battlefield on the spot. It seemed that he knew Tu Lin very well, and his words were extremely humble. He made an appearance of being ashamed.

After some warm and earnest talks, the Tu Lin family, along with the chief soldier and other generals, accompanied by the three princes, entered the palace to face the saint.Along the tens of meters wide avenue, there are cheers from the people in the capital. When the sound gradually subsides, the flow of people in sight gradually decreases, and it means that they have entered the inner city.After riding the horse for a few more minutes, Tu Lin and the others arrived under the palace gate.

According to the law, they were going to dismount and disarm the troops, so after a short stay, whether it was the three princes, generals like Tu Lin, or Ruan Tang, they all entered the palace gate on foot.

Tu Lin and the others were naturally going to see the emperor, and Ruan Tang was a family member, so they were received by the empress, but since the empress did not live in the harem, but lived with the emperor in Zichen Hall, the emperor's bedroom, the three of Ruan Tang were able to reconcile with each other. Tu Lin has been walking together.

"What's the matter? Are you a little nervous?" After entering the city, the two of them rode a horse and the other rode in a car, and neither had a chance to talk. Now that they were walking in the palace, Tu Lin suddenly realized that there seemed to be something wrong with Ruan Tang's expression.

Ruan Tang was a little dazed at first, but he came back to his senses when he heard Tu Lin's voice. He looked at Tu Lin, opened his mouth to say something, but suddenly thought of where they were now, he couldn't help but paused, then shook his head, He said softly, "...it's okay."

But Tu Lin could tell that Ruan Tang hadn't told him the truth, but there were people around, so he didn't want to ask too many questions, so he just gently pinched Ruan Tang's hand that wasn't holding Tu Jiaojiao, to comfort him a little.Soon, the group arrived in front of the Tai Chi Hall where the emperor routinely governs. It was time for Tu Lin to go in to see the emperor, and the three of Ruan Tang continued to be led by the servants to the Zichen Hall where the empress was.
