Chapter 743 The army returns (Thanks to Lalan Xixi for your monthly ticket~)

The fourth day of July is the beginning of autumn.

Li Sanniang got up early. In the past two days, she heard from people at the drug rehabilitation center that a large army returning from the border town was stationed only ten miles away.

As for why he stayed outside the city after arriving in Chang'an?

First, in order to manage this group of tens of thousands of returning soldiers, it is natural to manage them well before receiving rewards, so as to avoid causing trouble to the public security in Chang'an City.

Second, before Emperor Wu gave out rewards for meritorious service, Emperor Wu would take the lead in honoring the loyal souls who died fighting for the Tang Dynasty in the Martyrs' Shrine outside the city.

This is a ceremony that all soldiers must participate in. Even the auxiliary soldiers, such as the fire-headed soldiers who cook, also have to participate in this memorial ceremony.

So this army is now stationed outside the city, waiting for today's arrival.

Doctors like Li Sanniang had also been notified early, of course by the Imperial Medical Office. This time, Director Wang of the Imperial Medical Office was bringing dozens of doctors from the Chang'an Medical Alliance to watch the ceremony.

After all, military doctors also played a great role in this war. Emperor Wu would definitely reward the doctors of the Imperial Medical Office when he reviewed their merits.

As for why these doctors from the Chang'an Medical Alliance, not the Imperial Medical Office, were brought to the ceremony?
In Wang Shuzheng’s words: “We have to let them see that the doctors in our Imperial Medical Office also have good reputations and are meritorious officials.

In this way, they can treat our Imperial Medical Office as a good place and work hard to get in.

Besides, I’m afraid this drug rehabilitation center will have people there all year round, so I have to give them a little something sweet, right? "

Today Li Sanniang put on the dark blue clothes that Li's mother had made for her a long time ago. Linglan carefully inserted a wooden hairpin into Li Sanniang's bun.

"Master, isn't it too plain? Even if you are going to attend a memorial ceremony, this is too..."

Li Sanniang looked at the bronze mirror. She was really impressed by Linglan's skill in combing her hair into such a bun without losing hair. She gently shook her head and responded to Linglan's words: "What I want is to be modest. That's what I want." If you are going to attend a memorial ceremony, this is good, as you don’t need to wear hair accessories.”

At the agreed time, Li Sanniang and Qiuxiang, who was also wearing dark blue clothes, stood in the open space outside the drug rehabilitation center and waited.

On this day, no one was missing, and soon everyone was there.

Doctor Ning said a few words, and everyone went to look for carriages.

When Li Sanniang and Qiuxiang were about to find the carriage arranged by the Imperial Medical Office, Grandma Yan came over and said, "The princess knows that Dr. Li is also going to the Martyrs' Shrine, so she asked me to ask if Dr. Li is willing to come to our county." Let’s go together with the Lord’s carriage.”

Li Sanniang didn't expect that Princess Qingyang was still thinking about her, so she quickly bowed to Aunt Yan and said, "Thank you very much, Princess Qingyang, for still thinking of me. Thank you to Qiuxiang and I."

In this way, Li Sanniang and Qiuxiang walked forward and followed Nanny Yan onto Princess Qingyang's carriage.

Needless to say, the princess's carriage is much larger than an ordinary carriage. It is really spacious. There are only the princess and a maidservant sitting in it, plus Li Sanniang, Qiuxiang and Grandma Yan. There are actually a lot of people in this carriage. There is still room.

In addition to the carriages of their group, there were also many carriages and pedestrians on the official road.

Everyone in Chang'an City knew that Emperor Wu would pay homage to the soldiers who died in this battle at the Martyrs' Shrine outside Chang'an City with the army returning to Chang'an.

Not to mention, today is the beginning of autumn, which is already a ten-day holiday. Someone in the family who is an official has left the city a day or two early to live in Zhuangzi on the outskirts of the city. Then he will go directly from Zhuangzi to the Martyrs' Shrine.

If the rest of the people want to see this memorial ceremony, they can only go to the Martyrs' Shrine along the official road as soon as the city gate opens early in the morning.In this way, the official road is somewhat congested at the moment.

Earlier, when Li Sanniang returned to the Li family, she asked Li's father and Li's mother if they wanted to go to the Martyrs' Shrine on the outskirts of the city to pay homage. Li's father and mother thought for a while but refused.

Although there will be Jinwu guards and street patrols to maintain order, there will definitely be a lot of people, and it will be bad if something happens.

Li Sanniang thought about it and felt that it was indeed inappropriate.

However, the three fathers and sons of the Li family's eldest house will all be there. Brother Li, as the Jinwu Guards, must guard the carriage of Emperor Wu. Li Dalang was originally a soldier in the return of the army, and Li Erlang was the Lang of the Assistant Director of the Ministry of War. The official is definitely going.

There were many people, many cars and horses, but fortunately this was all planned, and the genius came out the door just after dawn.

In the carriage, Princess Qingyang also treated Li Sanniang to some cakes, "I guess Dr. Li didn't have time to have breakfast if he left so early. He probably had to wait for more than an hour when he arrived.

Dr. Li, please take some to relieve your stomach. "

Princess Qingyang really said that Li Sanniang got up early and thought she and Qiuxiang had nothing to eat, but Li Sanniang did have some candy specially given to her by Linglan in her sleeve pocket.

"What the princess said is that Qiuxiang and I really haven't had any water. If so, I won't be polite to the princess."

Li Sanniang took the plate of four cakes handed over by Grandma Yan and shared two pieces each with Qiuxiang.

After nearly an hour of marching, the carriage stopped. Listening to the princess' carriage driver explaining outside, it turned out that this place had been controlled for a long time, and there were soldiers in front. This meant that the carriage could not continue to travel. If you wanted to get in, , you have to get off the car and walk.

Li Sanniang was a little surprised by this, because she was sitting on the princess frame at this time.

The last time Li Sanniang came here to pay homage to Dr. Guo of Yuande Hall, who unfortunately died on the front line during the epidemic, she came as a citizen. She got off the carriage at the door and walked all the way in.

Unexpectedly, as a royal princess, she would have to dismount and walk when she arrived here.

Princess Qingyang saw Li Sanniang's surprise, and she, who was wearing dark clothes with only a silver hairpin on her head, explained to Li Sanniang: "It is prescribed by the saint.

The saint once said that the loyal souls in the Zhonglie Temple and the Zhonglie Monument all died for the Tang Dynasty and the people of the Tang Dynasty. As a living person, even the princes and nobles had to dismount their horses and walk there in person.

This is the respect that the living should do for them. "

Li Sanniang raised her head and looked at Princess Qingyang steadily. Li Sanniang could hear the seriousness and agreement in Princess Qingyang's words.

"Yes, it is precisely because of them that we can live a stable and peaceful life."

After Li Sanniang and Qiuxiang got off the carriage, they said goodbye to Princess Qingyang. After all, Li Sanniang came with the Imperial Medical Office, so her position was naturally different from that of the royal princess.

However, after getting off the carriage, Li Sanniang looked at the crowd of Wuyang Wuyang people around her and had some real feelings about this memorial ceremony.

Li Sanniang and Qiuxiang spent a long time looking for directions before they found where the person from the Imperial Medical Office was. It took them another quarter of an hour to walk over.

 Thank you Lalan Xixi for voting 4 monthly votes. Thank you very much for your continued support and encouragement!
  ====================
  There are so many new TV series released recently!
  I feel that domestic dramas have been very good in recent years, but why are they not released on the same APP? It is really expensive to open a membership here and a membership there.
