Chapter 99
Eight hundred li was urgent, and the messenger rode a thousand-mile horse day and night. On the evening of the tenth day of August, that is, the evening of the next day, this good news was delivered to Emperor Jianning.

"Good good!"

Looking at the memorial in his hand, Emperor Jianning said three good words in succession.

"Shen He's sword is indeed not old, and he lived up to my high expectations. This Shen Qianwei, a hero born a young man, is better than blue than blue, even more daring than Shen He back then!"

"My slave congratulates the emperor, the banditry that has plagued Huzhai for more than ten years has finally been resolved." Wang Lianyi smiled and served tea to Emperor Jianning.

After receiving the teacup, Emperor Jianning calmed down a little.

"This Su Yi said in the excerpt that the reason why the bandits were suppressed this time was that, firstly, this boy from the Shen family took the lead in charging, and secondly, he was brave and resourceful, and he sent people to ambush the bandits in advance and kidnapped the second bandit. The handle should be combined with the inside and outside from the rear, for this reason, King Yu's soldiers and horses have not been of much use."

Although after discovering that Zheng Han was secretly leading the army to attack, King Yu also responded immediately and immediately sent people up the mountain, but if he was a step too late, the credit would not be very conspicuous.

This is exactly what Emperor Jianning wanted.

"The father and son of General Shen and General Shen are extremely brave. This is because of your insight, Your Majesty. If you hadn't chosen a good general, how could you have won the victory?" Wang Lianyi complimented.

Emperor Jianning smiled even more when he heard this.

"Yes, Shen He and his son have made great contributions this time. The banditry in Fuhu Village has been left over from the time of the first emperor. I have to reward them well."

After pondering for a while, he said, "I pass on my decree, to make Shen He the third-rank General Zhaoyong, and his son Shen Qianwei to be the fifth-rank Xiaoqi Lieutenant."

Wang Lianyi responded and immediately stepped back.

That night, in Shen's residence, the Yan family received two imperial edicts for her husband and son.

After learning that the bandits were victorious, Yan cried with joy.

She doesn't care about the rewards of being promoted to the ranks, she just needs to know that her husband and son are fine, and she can feel at ease.

After sending away the eunuch who passed the decree from the palace, Yan happily asked his servants to clean the house in preparation for the father and son's favorite food.

The housekeeper Lao He smiled and comforted, "Madam, don't worry, the general and the young master must finish taking care of the affairs in Yuzhou before returning. There are still five days left for the Mid-Autumn Festival, so I am afraid they will not be able to make it back."

Suppressing bandits is not the end of the battle, there is still a lot of finishing work to be done, just counting the prisoners and captured spoils, as well as interrogation, all of which will take a lot of time.

After hearing this, Yan Shi was a little discouraged.

But thinking that although the family cannot be reunited during the Mid-Autumn Festival, knowing that the husband and son are well, it can be considered complete.

The next day.

The Shen family's father and son won a complete victory, and the news of the extermination of all the bandits in Fuhu Village in Yuzhou spread throughout the capital.

After the reward, Shen He is the third rank, that is, he has entered the stream in Bianjing City.

After all, most of the banquets in the palace are officials of the third rank and above who can enter the palace to participate.

And the most important thing is Shen Qianwei's award. He was already a fifth-rank Xiaoqi Lieutenant at a young age, and he also made military exploits.

Even though Bei Di puts more emphasis on literature than martial arts, Shen Qianwei can definitely be regarded as a young hero.

And from the current point of view, anyone with a discerning eye can see that this kid from the Shen family will definitely have a chance to become an official in the future, and he will never stop there.

That's why quite a few people began to pay attention to this kid from the Shen family who was born with mud legs that they didn't even look up to before.

Su Mansion, Tibetan Jade Pavilion.

After being woken up by Nanxu, Su Junning let Jichun do her makeup while listening to Yingmei talk about what happened outside.

After learning that the suppression of the bandits was successful, Su Junning immediately became much more energetic.

"So, I think Dad will be back soon."

"Yes, Madam and Miss can finally rest assured." Nan Xu took over the words, "Miss, do you know that Mr. Shen has made meritorious service again this time, and the emperor promoted him to an official position, and now he is a fifth-rank Xiaoqi Lieutenant."

Hearing this, Su Junning was in a daze.

At that moment, she seemed to have seen the man in armor fighting in the bandit's den, but she calmed down immediately, showing a bit of pure appreciation on her face.

"He does have some skills. When I returned to Bianjing at the beginning of the year, I was still from the sixth rank. Now I have been promoted to the fifth rank in less than half a year. I must have a bright future in the future."

Yingmei nodded quickly, and added with admiration.

"Today, I heard from the gatekeeper's mother-in-law that the little general Shen was brave in killing the enemy. When he was singled out, he beheaded more than a dozen bandits, including the third leader of Fuhu Village, and finally captured Fuhu Village alive." What about He Yuhu, the head of the family?"

"Don't exaggerate." Su Junning was a little suspicious.

Yingmei said seriously, "I won't talk nonsense, that woman said it was news from the Ministry of War."

Seeing the maid's serious face, Su Junning couldn't help but smile.

"In that case, he has really made a great contribution. When he comes back, I will follow what my mother said and invite him to the house for a meal. There is no need to go outside."

It's just that I don't know if Shen Qianwei is injured, so it will be inconvenient to come at that time.

The latter sentence came out of Su Junning's mind involuntarily, and she didn't say it, but even after thinking about it for a while, after realizing it, Su Junning also found it funny.

When did she start caring about Shen Qianwei.

Shaking his head, he got rid of the messy thoughts, and didn't mention it again.

Because of the great victory in suppressing the bandits in Yuzhou, Emperor Jianning was very interested and decided to hold a grand Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet.

The royal family, officials of the third rank and above in the court and their families all came to participate.

Needless to say, the Su family was naturally among those invited, and in the Shen family, Shen He became a third-rank general, so the Yan family was also on the list, but this matter was quite embarrassing for her.

After all, no matter how powerful the Yan family was, they were only from merchants. Although they came to Bianjing with their husband and became the general's wife, to be honest, they didn't see many big scenes, especially when they entered the palace.

Normally, she is outside the palace, so it's fine if the rules and etiquette are a bit off, but it's different when entering the palace. She has to be careful everywhere, and Shen He and Shen Qianwei haven't come back, so Yan has to enter the palace alone. Even more tense.

For a while, I didn't have any network resources, so I thought of Cui Shi.

She sent someone to the Su Mansion, and wanted to ask Mrs. Cui to help her find a teaching nun, two days before rushing into the palace for the banquet, to practice the rules and etiquette.

Grind your guns before the battle, and you will be happy if you are not happy.

This is not a difficult task, Mrs. Luo next to Mrs. Cui is very suitable, so Mrs. Cui sent Mrs. Luo to Shen's residence to teach Mrs. Yan.

After Su Junning heard about it, she joked, but she didn't expect her mother and Mrs. Shen to get along very well.

After all, in the eyes of outsiders, a woman from a merchant background and a lady from a scholarly family really don't seem to have anything to do with each other.

But after all, Su Junning also likes Yan's personality, warm, sincere and funny.

So I also raised my mouth and asked Cui Shi, if I should take Yan Shi with me when I entered the palace, so that I could help a little bit more.

Cui thought this proposal was good, so she also asked Mother Luo to tell Yan.

Yan Shi is naturally very happy to have someone to go with.

So on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival palace banquet, the two families first met outside the palace gate.

 On the second day of becoming a crooked neck tree, consider whether to go for acupuncture
