Zhao Gou personally welcomed him out of the palace. Without any explanation, he took Li Yanxian's hand and entered the hall. He said: "Since Jingkang, gold thieves have been rampant. Every time I think about the suffering in the world and the displacement of the people, I can't help but shed tears. The victory of Shaanzhou is worth losing gold."

With tens of thousands of households and more than 20,000 men under his command, why should the imperial court be afraid of the Jin people in the future?"

Entering the palace, all the officials shouted long live Zhao Goushan.

Zhao Gou ordered his chamberlain to take the embroidered pier, and asked Li Yanxian to sit under him, at the head of the ministers. He said: "The Jin captives invaded the south, and within a few years, no hero in the world dared to attack him! Today in Shaanzhou, he was beheaded

No one can compare to the speed at which thousands of households have been separated! This time I am here, I should be rewarded with an unparalleled reward!"

Where did Li Yanxian dare to sit? Standing there, he just felt uncomfortable.

When Qin Hui became prime minister, he relied on what he thought was a good policy: "The southerners should return to the south, and the northerners should return to the north." Unexpectedly, he was ridiculed by the ministers when he said it, and people kept impeaching him. Today, with the great victory of Shaanzhou, the main battle

Pai gained the upper hand and felt even more uncomfortable. Looking at Li Yanxian, I felt irritated.

Zhao Gou said to Li Yanxian: "What happened to Shaanzhou that day? How did you kill Ba Lisu? General, why don't you explain it to the ministers? In recent years, the ministers have suffered a lot from avoiding the Jin army. This great victory,

It can calm everyone's hearts."

Li Yanxian held up his hand and said: "The last general, under the command of Commander Jie, led the army to fight against Shaanzhou. He advanced rapidly at starry night and surrounded Shaanzhou on all sides——"

After talking about the situation that day, all the officials in the palace, including Zhao Gou, were amazed. But no one could imagine what the artillery Li Yanxian said was like and why it could block the gate of Shaanzhou City. When they heard that Zhang Chi had sealed the ferry, they could

Imagine it roughly and admire it together.

Asked about the situation that day, Zhao Gou said: "Wang Xiaoye followed his father, King Qin, during the Jingkang period. After his father died, he led the army to fight in many places, which was not easy. It was not until he arrived in several counties in Xiangyang that he settled down. It took several years.

, organized and trained an army of 100,000, and recovered Xijing during the Northern Expedition. Since Jingkang, who has been able to regain his homeland? Wang Xiaolie was the only one. After receiving the news, the imperial court was particularly worried about whether Wang Xiaolie could hold Xijing. He pulled Li Su's army out of Shaanxi, and everyone

I am terrified. How could I have imagined that Wang Xiaolie could win consecutive battles! Not only did he defend Xijing, but he also killed Ba Lisu! This is a true minister of Sheji!"

Li Yanxian respectfully said: "Commander Jie is born with wisdom and benevolence. All soldiers and civilians benefit from him!"

Zhao Gou nodded and asked again: "I recruited Wang Xiaolie to go to the palace before, but due to the busy war, I didn't get it for a while. Why did the general come for this great victory, and why didn't Wang Xiaolie come? This great victory, was it?

The court has never seen anything like this before, and it is a pity that he is missing!"

Li Yanxian said: "Xijing is on the front line. There is Shaanxi in the west and Puppet Qi in the east. I don't know when there will be a war. We are thousands of miles away. If there is an emergency, I am afraid it will be too late. The commander-in-chief takes state affairs as his top priority and dare not leave without permission.

."

Zhao Goudao said: "It's rare, it's rare. I'm very pleased that Wang Xiaolie pays attention to state affairs!"

After chatting for a while, Zhao Gou said: "General guarded Shaanzhou during the Jianyan period. He fought many battles and was praised all over the world. Today he commanded the army to regain Shaanzhou and achieved a great victory. Is it God's will? There will be a banquet in the palace tonight to celebrate the general.

."

Li Yanxian thanked him.

It rained heavily on the road. Not only Li Yanxian, but also all the ministers were wet, which was really uncomfortable. After chatting for a few words, Zhao Gou ordered to retreat from the palace. He ordered Prime Minister Lu Yihao to make good arrangements for Li Yanxian and his party, and hold a banquet to celebrate them in the evening.

After exiting the main hall, Li Yanxian breathed a sigh of relief. Zhao Gou's attitude was modest, his words were reasonable, and he did not make things difficult for himself, so everything went smoothly. As long as he gets through today, the days to come will be much easier.

Li Yanxian came from a lower-class background. Although he later held a high position, he never interacted with senior officials of the imperial court. Later he joined Wang Xiaolie's army. Although there were people like Chen Qiudao and Wang Ruohai, everything was still too simple due to Wang Xiaolie's style.

When I saw Zhao Gou today, I was not used to anything and felt restricted everywhere. Ending it early also allowed Li Yanxian to get rid of this discomfort.

After leaving the palace, Lu Yihao personally arranged for Li Yanxian and others to live in the post house. Food, expenses, everything must be the best.

After arriving at the post house and changing clothes, Li Yanxian called Lin Wei and Tong Yuanqing to chat.

Lin Weidao: "In all these years, this is the first time I have seen so many high-ranking officials of the imperial court, and even the emperor! To be honest, before entering Lin'an City, I was so nervous! And Xianggong Lu had a kind attitude.

The officials are extra polite, so I'm not so nervous!"

Tong Yuanqing smiled and said: "How can you say that? Isn't Marshal Jieh a senior official of the imperial court? We haven't seen him much before."

Lin Weidao: "How can it be the same? Jieshuai is born with no airs, how can he compare with these ministers!"

Li Yanxian said: "You have underestimated yourself! Among the officials in the court today, how many have higher official positions than yours? Commander-in-Chief does not like these pretensions. We are used to being in the army and are not used to this kind of thing. If

Speaking of senior officials, you two are also senior officials!"

Lin Wei was stunned, pointed at his nose and said, "Am I also a senior official?"

Li Yanxian shook his head: "You are the Yuhou of the first army, do you think this official is junior? If you are in other armies, it is not an exaggeration to make you the governor of Yaojun."

Lin Wei laughed and said: "You are all joking! If I can make Yao County governor, how many governors should there be in the world!"

Li Yanxian said: "Do you think there are few governors in the world?"

Lin Wei was stunned after hearing this. Think about it carefully, Wang Xiaolie's division has more than 20,000 people. As a Yuhou, Lin Wei is really a high-ranking official. However, Wang Xiaolie has never been a regular army member of the imperial court, and all generals are appointed by himself.

Yes, there is no imperial title. In addition, class laws are not implemented in Wang Xiao's hunting army, and the relationship between superiors and subordinates is harmonious, so the generals cannot feel it.

Tong Yuanqing said: "Capital, after this sacrifice of prisoners, there will be rewards from the court. It seems that people like us will also have official positions in the court. Logically speaking, compared with other armies, Lin Wei and I are in the same division.

The official position will not be lower. But we are different in the end. What official position will the court grant?"

Li Yanxian said: "Who can explain it clearly? If you just talk about the number of troops you lead and the performance against the enemy, your official position will not be low. But the commander-in-chief Xiangyang built the army and took care of everything himself. What will the court think?

, but I can’t tell clearly.”

Lin Weidao: "After listening to Dutong's words just now, I was thinking of making Yao County governor and becoming a high official from now on! It turns out it's not——"

Li Yanxian sighed: "Don't talk about you, it's just me. From the time we gave up Shaanzhou to Xiangyang, the imperial court never gave us any reward. Everything we have, whether it is official positions or salaries, was given by the commander-in-chief. This time it was the imperial court.

Our officials are just in name only, how can they still pay us salaries?"
