The Alchemist God

Seven days later, the demons withdrew their troops from Mosong Pass and aimed their attack at Ding Xi's army in Sunset City to the south of the steel wall. Lin Muyu's injury required rest, so Qin Yin ordered to leave an army to guard Qinling, and Gendan The battalion and imperial army returned to Lanyan City. At this point, the southern border of the Great Qin Empire was finally settled, and all the more than a dozen fortresses at the Qinling Mountains fell into the hands of the imperial army to counterbalance the Yihe Kingdom and the Demon Race.

On December 21, 7734 in the imperial calendar, the army returned to Lanyan City.

...

The fierce battle was finally over. As a king, Qin Yin's first thing was to award meritorious deeds, and the next day was the court meeting, where all the officials gathered.

Although Lin Muyu was wrapped in gauze, he put on the armor carefully, and walked up to the court with his injuries. He knew very well that he had to support Qin Yin at this time, otherwise she would still be defeated by Tang Lan and Su Mu in the court. Constrained by the cloud.

Feng Jixing stood with Lin Muyu, and asked with concern, How is the injury?

It's much better, don't worry. Lin Muyu grinned.

That's good.

Feng Jixing said worriedly: Ayu, you need to recover from your injuries quickly. The demons are about to move again recently. The scouts we placed in Winterfrost City sent news that Qianfeng trained the armored demon's army tactics all day long. Once again When encountering the Light Wind Legion, I'm afraid they won't be as stupid as last time.

Well, I know. In Lin Muyu's mind came the demon marshal Qianfeng. Such a wise and brave person is indeed a serious problem for the empire. He only hates himself for not being strong enough, otherwise he would sneak into Winter Frost City directly and kill Qianfeng with a single sword strike. , I am afraid that the empire will be much safer.

At this time, a courtier said loudly: The court meeting begins.

Everyone knelt down on one knee to welcome the empress. With the sound of footsteps, Qin Yin, accompanied by several female officials, walked up to the throne. After sitting down gracefully, she raised her hand and said, My lords, please be flat.

Lin Muyu and Feng Jixing stood up together and looked up, only to see that Qin Yin was wearing a milky white robe today, which looked even more graceful and luxurious, and her beautiful face showed a mature charm, but she still maintained her beauty. A little girlish and shy, but at this moment, Qin Yin was no longer timid.

Looking at the ministers with a pair of wonderful eyes, Qin Yin's voice was very sweet, and she said clearly: Since Commander Yu led the Longdan camp to the south, he has repeatedly made military exploits and recaptured Mosong Pass and Jiayuan Pass from the demons. Waiting for the city fortress, even entered the lost land of the Lingnan Empire, and successively seized Huoyue City, Xingjue City and other cities in the Xunbai Province, greatly boosting the military power of our empire, but Commander Yu's greatest merit is not only this, but the feigned surrender and infiltration In Sunset City, among the thousands of troops in Sunset City, I took back the head of Qin Lei, the former commander of the Imperial Forest Army who died for the country, so that the warriors could be buried back to their hometown. It is a shame for the Yixue Empire. One of the eleven generals.

His Highness and all the ministers were moved and looked at each other, but it seemed that no one could give a reason to object.

A group of generals of the Tang family looked dignified and did not make a sound. This time, the empress killed four generals of the Tang family in a row because of Lin Muyu's matter, and among them was a close relative of Tang Lan like Tang Zuo. angry but dare not speak.

Among the crowd, only Tang Lu was a little annoyed, and said: Your Highness, Commander Yu has made great contributions, but...he is still young after all, and I am afraid that he is not qualified enough to be one of the generals of the empire at such a young age.

Seniority.

Qin Yin smiled, and said like a few treasures: In Lingyun Pavilion, Xiang Wentian was 21 years old as commander, Luo Tonghai was 24 years old as general, Feng Yicheng was 27 years old as general, and Commander Yu is now I'm twenty-six years old, why not have seniority, come here, read the feather book from the traitors of the Yihe country in Lingnan.

Yes, Your Highness.

A female officer in Tsing Yi nodded respectfully, took out a piece of letterhead, unfolded it, and read to the officials: When Lin Muyu captured the head of Commander Qin Lei in Marshal Lu Zhao's mansion, there was a scuffle, and all the people who died under his sword There were more than one hundred people, including Lu Zhao, one of the Seven Marshals of the Yihe Kingdom in Lingnan, General Zhao Jiu, General Li Cha, Commander of the Qingqi Army Wang Biao, Deputy Commander of the Yasukuni Army Dong Yan, etc. In addition, Commander Yu also Killed Yan Li, the number one powerhouse in the holy realm under Luo Lan's seat, and severely injured Lu Zhan, who was in the holy realm.

After finishing speaking, she turned around and bowed slightly to Qin Yin, and backed away.

Qin Yin stood up, with a smile on her pretty face, and said, Just to ask, looking at the Great Qin Empire, is there any loyal and brave general who can do this?

Su Muyun took a deep breath, clasped his fists and said, Your Highness, Commander Yu's loyalty to the empire can be learned from heaven and earth. He was able to do what others could not, and he was unbearable. He has made outstanding achievements. He can be called ancient times and the present. No one has made such a contribution before. The veteran thinks... Commander Yu's meritorious service is worthy of the title of general. Besides, the 20,000 warriors of the Longdan Battalion are brave and good at fighting, and they are the best in the imperial army. The commander naturally needs a suitable title , the name of Admiral is well deserved.

Qin Yin was greatly surprised, she didn't expect that Su Muyun would rely on Lin Muyu so much today, so she smiled slightly and said, Thank you, Grandpa, for your approval, then...is there any objection to promoting Lin Muyu as a general?

Tang Lan clasped her fists and said, The veteran has no objection.

Everyone in the Tang family clasped their fists together, and soon, everyone began to congratulate Lin Muyu. After all, there are only a handful of such young generals since ancient times. What's more, Lin Muyu is also the chief deacon of the imperial temple. Thousands of pets in one.

Immediately, Lin Muyu took a step forward, knelt on one knee and said, Thank you, Your Highness, Long En.

Qin Yin nodded with a smile: Brother Ah Yu, get up quickly.

Lin Muyu nodded, and soon, two emperors and female officials stepped forward, one holding the general's seal and ribbon, and the other holding the general's sword, these are symbols of military rank and military power, after accepting them one by one , Lin Muyu thanked you again.

...

The second thing is about the reorganization of the Imperial Forest Army, as well as the reconstruction of the Imperial Forest Guards and the White Robe Imperial Forest. Qin Yin looked at the officials with beautiful eyes like water, and said, According to the rules of the empire for more than seven thousand years, the guardian of the emperor The Imperial Forest Army has always been responsible for the important task, but now it is shouldered by the Imperial Army alone. The Imperial Army's duty is to protect the imperial capital, not the emperor, so I think it is imminent to rebuild the Imperial Forest Army.

His Highness and the ministers were taken aback again.

Su Muyun frowned and cupped his fists and said, Your Highness, this... the security of the Zetian Temple has always been in charge of the Su family's cavalry led by your aunt Yu. Don't tell me you can't trust your aunt Yu.

Qin Yin smiled sweetly: What does Grandpa say, Aunt Yu is Xiaoyin's relatives, how could I not trust her, it's just that the rules left by the emperors of the empire are like this, the emperor must personally canonize the white robe Lin and Yulin Guard, set up the Yulin Army to guard the Zetian Palace, just as Grandpa and Duke Lan have always said, the rules of the ancestors cannot be broken, Duke Lan, what do you think.

A gleam flashed in Tang Lan's eyes, and he clasped his fists and said, Your Highness, rebuilding the Imperial Forest Army is not a trivial matter, and it needs to be done step by step, starting with the White Robe Imperial Forest. The old minister suggested that Your Highness canonize the White Robe Imperial Forest first, and then Then form a team of a hundred guards, and finally rebuild the Imperial Guard, after all, the empire has limited financial and material resources, so it can no longer be as extravagant as it was four years ago.

Qin Yin murmured, and said with a smile: What Lan Gong said is very true, then... let's start with the canonization of the white-robed imperial forest.

Su Muyun respectfully said: Your Highness, according to the ancestors' rules, there have always been only six white-robed imperial forests, but now, Qu Chu, Qin Lei, and Du Hai have all died for their country, and only Feng Jixing, Qu Chu, and Yao Yuan are left. , Therefore, we only need to add three more places, I don’t know if His Highness already has candidates in mind.”

Yes. Qin Yin said with a slight smile, Grandpa, I plan to confer Commander Yu as one of the white-robed imperial forests.

ah.

Su Muyun was slightly taken aback. In fact, he could have expected it a long time ago. He smiled helplessly and said, That's right... Ah Yu is His Highness's brother-in-law, and he has repeatedly sacrificed his life to protect you. It is even more expected that Ah Yu will become a white-robed imperial forest. .”

Qin Yin smiled and said, Thank you, Grandpa, for your permission.

Tang Lan said: The veteran also thinks that Commander Yu's promotion to the White Robe Royal Forest is a matter of course, but there are still two places. I don't know if His Highness can choose. The White Robe Royal Forest is a symbol of loyalty and strength. The strongest military force and the most loyal belief around you, I hope His Highness must think twice before deciding.

Well, I see. Qin Yin nodded, I don't know if Mr. Lan has someone to recommend.

Tang Lan smiled: Xiang Yu, a descendant of Xiang Wentian, the god of the imperial army, is well versed in the martial arts of Chaos Nine Strikes, and even more able to charge into battle for His Highness, regardless of life and death.

Immediately, a general surnamed Su behind Su Muyun couldn't help laughing: Xiang Yu, he ordered the poisoning of 180W people in Wugu City with one order. How can such a murderous monster deserve to be a white-robed imperial forest?

Xiang Yu's face was ashen, and he said lightly: The general knows that he has little talent and virtue, so I ask Mr. Lan to recommend someone else.

Tang Lan sighed, looked at the group of Tang Lu, Tang Tian, ​​Tang Wei and others behind him, and couldn't help sighing again. Among the descendants of the Tang family, only Tang Xiaoxi was the most capable, but he didn't stand by his side. On one side, the other brave general is Tang Zhen, but Tang Zhen is too upright, so he can't use it for himself. Looking around, he is full of mediocre people.

At this time, Su Muyun clasped his fists and said, Your Highness, the veteran recommends Su Yu. She is your aunt, she is loyal, and she holds the military power of the 200,000 troops in Muyu City.

Qin Yin looked at Su Yu with her beautiful eyes, and asked with a smile, Aunt Yu, would you like it?

Su Yu was pleasantly surprised and said, I...can I do it?

Of course it's fine.

Thank you, Your Highness. Su Yu took a step forward, knelt down on one knee, and said excitedly, Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness. Su Yu will serve the Great Qin Empire forever, otherwise she will die by the sword.

Aunt Yu, you don't have to be so polite.

Qin Yin was filled with joy, and said: Then it's decided. Lin Muyu and Su Yu will be enlisted in the white-robed imperial forest. The canonization ceremony will be held in Zetian Hall tomorrow, and then I will rebuild the imperial guard.
