Prime Minister

Chapter 730
Zhang Yue was quite understanding about being transferred back to the capital.

The power of the imperial power operated until the Song Dynasty. Although it did not reach its peak in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, it has gradually matured.

In the long history, businessmen, eunuchs, harem, relatives, families, generals, and civil servants have all challenged his position of power.

By the time of the Song Dynasty, imperial power had already killed the first six challengers.

The politics of the Tang Dynasty was similar to that of an aristocratic republic, while the politics of the Song Dynasty were just like what Wen Yanbo said to the officials, the emperor and the scholar-bureaucrats shared the world.

The emperor is still the emperor, but the participants have changed.

Who is better, aristocrats from aristocratic families or scholar-bureaucrats from imperial examinations?Who is more powerful, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty or the emperor of the Song Dynasty?
Now that the officials want to return to Beijing by themselves, Zhang Yue immediately accepts the order without saying a word.

However, Zhang Yue still has concerns in his heart. He is not obsessed with the power and position of the Jinglue envoy. Although the Jinglue envoy is a high-ranking envoy, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is the emperor of the earth, but how can he have his own comfort in Bianjing, where his wife and children are hot on the kang It is the kingly way of the kingly way.

Under the so-called series of titles, he is just an ordinary husband and father.

Zhang Yue really wanted to go back to Bianjing, but he was even more worried about the stall in Xihe after he left.

He was afraid that his hard work would fail, or even fall short.

Zhang Yue looked at Wang Shao, Gao Zunyu, Zhang Shen, Cai Yanqing, who could he entrust?
After much deliberation, none of them can be relied on.I should have been able to entrust Wang Shao completely, but Wang Shao couldn't see the situation at all, and thought that after he left, he would be able to control the military and political power of Xihe Road alone.

Instead of this, it is better to leave a situation where they check and balance each other.

But this is a last resort choice, which may ruin the situation on Xihe Road.

It would be fine if Li Xian still bears it for Qin Fenglu.

The next day Zhang Yue, Wang Shao, Jing Sili and other generals returned to Xizhou with Cai Yanqing and Zhang Shen.

Cai Yanqing and Zhang Shen wanted to send Zhang Yue all the way to Qinzhou and even Fengxiang Mansion, which was called Jiaoying in ancient times.

Returning to Beijing as a general who has made great achievements, as a local governor, he must see him off all the way. Even when Zhang Yue captured Xixia, even the officials had to go out of the capital thirty miles to meet Zhang Yue.

When Zhang Yue arrived in Xizhou, Wen Jifu, Lu Shengqing, and Xing Shu also greeted him in person, as well as Su Zhe, Cheng Yi, You Shixiong, and Zhong Shidao, who had just arrived in office.

As the earliest trio under Zhang Yue's curtain, they belonged to the civil service system and could not go to Beijing with Zhang Yue to receive rewards, so Wen Jifu, Lu Shengqing, and Xing Shu were also promoted.

Zhang Yuebao Zouwen Jifu was the magistrate of Hezhou.

Baozuo Lu Shengqing was the general judge of Xizhou.

Baozuo Xingshu was the military judge of Xizhou Jiedushi.

The three of them fought resolutely on the question of whether Gao Zunyu would send troops this time, so not only were they appointed as officials, but even their own officials were promoted to a higher level.

But Jing Sili Zhang Yue planned to keep him in Hezhou, stationed in Tabai City, and Zhang Yuebao played him as Dongshanghemen envoy and governor of Hezhou.

At the same time, Jing Sili's mother was still there, and Zhang Yueshang took his mother to Qinzhou to take care of him. He also asked his younger brother Jing Siyi to join the army as Sihu in Chengji County, Qinzhou, and take care of his mother nearby.

Jing Sili could have gone to Beijing with Zhang Yue to receive the reward, but Zhang Yue considered the situation in Xihe and decided to keep him here.

Now that Zhang Yue has returned from the front line, the trio are all beaming.

At the beginning when they came to Zhang Yue's curtain, the plan was to add officials to the mountain, and within half a year, both the dispatcher and the official were promoted.

It's such a good feeling to hug your thighs.

They deeply felt that the decision to follow Zhang Yue was right.

Seeing Zhang Yue's return, all three of them came forward to pay homage.

Wen Jifu is the in-law of Zhang Yue in the Yamen, and his attitude is acceptable. Anyway, his wife has been in the capital all the time, and the work of winning over has been going on.

He knew the importance of Shi Qi Niang in Zhang Yue, as long as Shi Qi Niang said a few nice words to Zhang Yue, the line would be settled.

Therefore, Wen Jifu maintains an neither humble nor overbearing attitude towards Zhang Yue.

Lu Shengqing didn't need him to speak. Lu Huiqing, who was on the way back to Beijing after the guard was full, had already written a letter to thank Zhang Yue.

Lu Huiqing expressed her gratitude to Zhang Yue for taking care of her "Ai Wu Ji Wu", expressing that she owed him a favor.

Among the three, only Xing Shu saw Zhang Yue's demeanor, which cannot be simply described as flattery.

Lu Shengqing said: "The banquet has been prepared, and we are waiting for the manager to accompany you."

Zhang Yue nodded, and returned from the city gate to the Jinglue Mansion, the soldiers and the common people lined up to greet him.

And Jinglue Mansion was decorated with lanterns and festoons, for the victory of Hehezhou, the three armies were rewarded in Xizhou city.

Except for those who followed Zhang Yue to Beijing to receive rewards, the meritorious service of generals and generals was divided into three ranks, the first rank was transferred to one official, the second rank was transferred to two ranks, and the third rank was transferred to one rank.

Based on the principle of rewarding meritorious service, Zhang Yue reported to the Privy Council the [-] soldiers who accompanied him on the expedition and the [-] reinforcements that Zhang Shouyue later sent to the Privy Council.

Wen Yanbo, who had always been picky about the rewards for frontier meritorious service in the past, actually approved all of them with a swipe of a pen this time, and told the officials that the imperial court must not chill the hearts of the soldiers who fought in the South and the North.

The official listened to his heart at the time, and it was simply that the sun came out from the west.

In addition to being promoted, whether the soldiers of the Xihe Army went to war or not, each of the main soldiers was rewarded with [-] yuan, each of the auxiliary soldiers was rewarded with [-] yuan, and their monthly salary was increased by [-] yuan.

Zhang Yue rode his horse on the streets of Xizhou, and the soldiers who accompanied him to the west all knew the news of Zhang Yue's return to Beijing to report on his duties. The more grateful Dade.

Zhang Yue couldn't stop clasping his fists at the horse's head to pay tribute to the soldiers who had followed him for several years. At this moment, he felt very reluctant to part.

A small school stopped Zhang Yue's horse and said: "Jie Shuai, everyone said that you went to Beijing because the officials worshiped you as your husband, but I don't believe it. , how could you just walk away."

Hearing this, Zhang Yue couldn't help but feel his blood rushing up. How could he just forget the two years of his military career? The friendship on the battlefield is something that every man can never forget in his life.

At this moment, Zhang Yue also forgot about Xiaojia, he jumped off the horse and helped the little schoolboy up and said: "The horse leather shroud is the home of my good man, okay, I promise you, if you don't step through Helan Mountain, I won't worship you." Prime Minister!"

The small school was overjoyed and said to the left and right soldiers: "Jie Shuai agreed, and lead us to catch Mu Zheng alive, Dong Xing!"

The left and right soldiers all said yes, and then raised their hands and said, "Catch Mu Zheng alive, Dong Zhan! Break Helan Mountain!"

"Catch Mu Zheng alive, Dong Zhan! Break Helan Mountain!"

"Break through Helan Mountain!"

On the other hand, Cai Yanqing, Zhang Shen and others were all dumbfounded. What did Zhang Yue mean by this?
But seeing the soldiers in the whole street all said one after another: "Tread through Helan Mountain!"

"Break through Helan Mountain!"

Zhang Shen was taken aback when he saw this scene. Zhang Yue, a literati, was so motivated by the army.

It seems that the imperial court was right to be worried and wanted to recall him back to Beijing.

As for Wang Shao watching this scene, he was a bit apprehensive.

Gao Zunyu sneered on the horse, as if he was laughing at Zhang Yue.

As for an official named Zhong Shidao who followed Zhang Yue with a look of admiration, at the same time he said silently in his heart, a man should be like this!
