I am the sword fairy

Chapter 268
The third day of August.

As soon as the sky dawned, countless people got up to clean up.

A large number of new clothes sent by people from the palace had also arrived at this time.

For this day, all the tailors in Lin'an City and several nearby big cities have been working overtime for more than two months!

As for the clothes of Song Yu and Li Chaoen, they were made by the Palace Clothing Bureau themselves!

Song Yu looked at the robe that was given to him, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

This is a black dragon robe!
The workmanship is extremely exquisite, with a mighty and domineering four-clawed golden dragon embroidered with gold thread on top-grade black silk!

With his tall and majestic figure, wearing this dress, he looks more like the king of a country than an official.

During the Zhao Dynasty, no official ever wore a dragon robe.

At this moment, a set was specially made for him, the King of Qi. Even if it was just a formal dress, Song Yu felt that he could not wear it.

Li Chaoen also agreed with his idea.

"You must be as low-key as possible now, your reputation is too high!"

The old man said lightly: "Especially among the people, many people only know about you and don't know about the official family. This is not a good thing."

Song Yu nodded and put away the clothes.

Wearing only one of the prince's clothes from before.

When he wears this, he will not appear unworthy of the king, nor will he be overly public.

When everyone had washed up, changed clothes and had breakfast, the whole team set off again.

Go forward ten miles and accept the welcome of His Majesty and the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty.

At this moment, thirty miles north of Lin'an City, there was already a sea of ​​people. Counting the imperial troops and the Manchu civil and military forces who maintained order, the scene was extremely spectacular!
Luo Luo Wang, who had been promoted to the commander of the Forbidden Army, was full of expectations and couldn't help but whisper to the people around him——

"If I hadn't been following Mr. Yu because of my status as a forbidden soldier, maybe I could have been granted the title of Marquis from the original count this time!"

No one disbelieves his words. One thing everyone knows in the entire Zhao State military system is that as long as there is a chance to hug Mr. Yu's thigh, he will definitely become famous!
First, the imperial guards who followed Song Yu to sweep across Qi were all promoted, and then Chen Qun was promoted from the minister of the Ministry of Rites to the chief minister of the dynasty.

Even Xiao Qing, who was about to be married to Song Yu by the emperor, in order to upgrade her to a princess, she posthumously made the long-dead Xianggong Xiao a king.

The most powerful one is Master Yu himself, King Qi!
Many people were still talking privately before, saying that Song Yu was already a prince, and this time he has made such great achievements. How can the officials reward him to satisfy the people of the world?

As a result, the officials were so courageous that they directly sealed Song Yu, a vassal king who had disappeared in the long river of history for too many years!

The power is countless times greater than that of the prince!
Except for the nominal need to obey the orders of the central dynasty, everything else is independent.

Once Song Yu's fiefdom is confirmed, if old friends like Lao Luo really want to seek refuge, they will definitely be reused.

Even in the eyes of many people, the reason why Zhao State is what it is today is because of the appearance of Master Yu. Therefore, when you go to Master Yu's Qi State in the future, it may be better than now!
Of course, no one dared to say this outright, but there were obviously many people who were interested.

For example, Jiang Lingyun was also mixed in the welcoming team.

Although he is still the silver medal manager of the Supervision Section of the Monster Supervision Department, he is much more arrogant than before.

Everyone tells everyone that King Qi is my old friend, and even more so my good brother...the brother of Sun Zhiping, the gold-medal commander of the Inspection Section!
Sun Zhiping is very low-key and never talks about these things.

Even more low-key than him is Mrs. Shui, the gold medal leader of Jianghu Branch.

It had been a long time since this eldest sister had seen Song Yu, and her little affection for this younger brother who had been rising through the ranks had long been buried deep in her heart.

Especially after hearing that the official family had granted her a marriage, she didn't dare to show any affection for Song Yu.

He was worried that his former status as a brothel owner would bring trouble to Song Yu.

the other side.

Xiao Qing, who was dressed in princess attire, was whispering to Zhao Huan, who was also dressed in attire.

"Sister, are you not worried now?" Zhao Huan asked with a smile.

Xiao Qing's face turned red and she whispered: "I don't know if he is willing yet."

Zhao Huan raised his eyebrows and said: "Rebellion! My sister was born with a beautiful country, a virtuous and virtuous character, a literary scholar who can recite poems and write poems, and a martial artist who can lift tiles from a house..."

Xiao Qing: "..."

Zhao Huan said: "Anyway, there is nothing to worry about. Song Yu is fine with everything else, but he is a little indecisive about relationships. If I were him, how old would your child be!"

Xiao Qing blushed and said, "Sister, please keep your voice down."

Zhao Huan smiled and said, "What's this?"

Xiao Qing said softly: "I don't think he is a person who is indecisive about feelings. I just think he has no aspirations in this world."

Zhao Huan was slightly startled, thinking of all the rumors he had heard about Song Yu in the past two years.

After a moment of silence, he said with a smile: "No matter what, he is here now. No matter where he is, I will give him five children first!"

"what?"

"Ah, what? Why don't we give birth to a few more to tie his heart? Haven't you heard that there is a very mysterious and beautiful beauty beside him now? She just appeared out of nowhere!" Zhao Huan looked at Xiao Qing, "Sister, please be more careful!"

Xiao Qing said softly: "Although His Majesty has not officially issued the decree, he is already the King of Qi. There cannot be only one princess..."

"Sister, you said it wrong, you are the queen!" Zhao Huan corrected with a smile.

It was already broad daylight.

As a ray of morning light rises in the east, golden light shines on the earth.

A flag began to appear in the distance!
The large group of people gradually came into view.

The large number of people in Lin'an City who saw this scene all involuntarily let out a burst of earth-shattering cheers.

Shocking!

The officials resting in the tent heard the cheers and smiled at Chen Qun and others around them: "Our hero is back, let's go out with the others to greet him!"

The moment the deafening cheers sounded, Chen Qun couldn't help but steal a glance at the official's expression.

But I couldn't see any displeasure.

To be honest, he was worried.

The light on Song Yu's body was too dazzling. A young man in his early twenties had already been sealed to such an extent.

It’s hard to imagine what the Zhao State will be like in the future.

But it seems that the officials are not worried at all.

Unlike Chu Qinghui, he did not have such a strong political background and did not dare to ask many questions.

After being pushed into this position, he quickly figured out that what the official family wanted was not necessarily the kind of husband-in-law who could take charge of government.

But one who can faithfully carry out His will!

And he should be just right.

After having this basic understanding, his life suddenly became easier.

At this moment, listening to the deafening cheers that had not stopped from the moment they started ringing in his ears, Chen Qun also showed a happy smile on his elegant face.

Wang Shibei settled in the Central Plains!

that's nice!

……

……

In the huge team here, the Second Emperor, who was sitting in two luxurious carriages, listened to the deafening cheers, and a complex expression appeared on his old face.

They are not stupid.

When it comes to emperors' talents, they say that they are second or third in the world, but no one dares to claim to be first.

After so many years of imprisonment, they had already figured out too many things, but times had already changed and it was too late.

Now, listening to this earth-shattering cheers, I feel all mixed emotions deep in my heart.

Li Chaoen and Song Yu, who were still riding in the same car, looked at each other and almost said in unison -

Song Yu: "Go out and meet me!"

Li Chaoen: "Don't come out, let's go home."

The two looked at each other, and then they couldn't help but laugh.

The old man looked pleased.

No matter whether he is King Yong or King Qi, he is still the same Song Yu after all, and he is not floating.

Afterwards, Li Chaoen got out of the car and rode on a handsome horse.

Li Chaoen now has no state of mind, but his basic skills are still there.

Get on the horse, even under the attire, your aura is still quite strong!

As he appeared on horseback, the cheers reached a peak and were completely boiling!
When the official saw Li Chaoen coming out alone, an intriguing smile appeared on his lips, and then he took the initiative to lead the officials forward.

Next, the monarch and his ministers met, and the scene was lively and touching.

Song Yu also appeared in front of the officials in a low-key manner, bowing and saluting.

"Your Majesty Song Yu, I have met the official family!"

The official smiled and pointed: "You boy, you are too naughty! Why didn't you just come out and accept the cheers of the people? Why didn't you wear the clothes that I had people make for you? This is not like your temperament. ! What's the matter? I dare to even confer the title of King of Qi, but are you afraid that your achievements will overwhelm the master?"

All the civil and military officials of the court stood behind the officials, and when they heard what was said, they all watched with eyes, nose, and heart.

The way these two get along, I dare not listen, let alone ask.

Song Yu looked humble: "The first achievements of the Northern Expedition must be attributed to King Qi, Envoy Lu Jiedu, and the Privy Council. My achievements cannot be compared with them. How dare I come out to accept the cheers?"

The official looked at Song Yu: "Who dares to say more about you being the first contributor to the Northern Expedition?"

Then he looked at Li Chaoen: "How did this kid become so low-key? Did you teach him?"

Li Chaoen smiled happily: "The officials have wronged us, and now our family is being manipulated by this kid!"

The official was confused: "Oh?"

Li Chaoen chuckled and said, "Our family plans to raise a baby for this kid, but he is still not happy!"

The official was stunned for a moment, then he laughed and said: "What's wrong? I didn't tell you where to seal this kid, so you can't wait to go to him?"

The words seemed reproachful.

As a result, all the civil and military officials in the court, including Chen Qun, who were originally smiling, suddenly became worried.

Li Chaoen, however, didn't care at all and said softly: "Officials, I'm old and old, it's time to take a rest. The previous battle in Luzhou City has almost destroyed my old bones..."

The official took a step forward, took Li Chaoen's hand, and said affectionately: "Chaoen, I'm just kidding you. I've heard about you. Don't worry, you can take care of your baby if you want. As for you, Your injury... I will mobilize the whole country to help you find a famous doctor!"

Li Chaoen's eyes showed emotion and he bowed to thank him.

Later, Song Yu and his party were invited to the high platform that had been set up.

The official said with emotion: "In the past, the emperor came to the stage to pay homage to the generals before going on an expedition. When you went out for the expedition, I once said that I will wait for your triumphant return in Lin'an Mansion!"

"Now you have done it!"

"Recapture the great mountains and rivers and make an unparalleled contribution!" "I have to do what I say!"

Afterwards, the new Prime Minister Chen Qun personally read out the edict——

"The emperor is destined by heaven, Zhao said, the brave king Song Yu, loyal and brave invincible... was granted the title of King of Qi, and the four prefectures and states including Jiankang Prefecture, Pingjiang Prefecture, Lin'an Prefecture, Mingzhou, Qingyuan Prefecture, Huizhou, Xinzhou, and Hengzhou were changed For Qi State, as a fiefdom for the King of Qi!"

boom!
All the people in Lin'an who heard these words were boiling almost instantly!

The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty had known this result before, but they still couldn't help but feel turbulent in their hearts at this moment.

The territory of "Qi State" is not large for Zhao State, which succeeded in the Northern Expedition.

It can’t be said to be a tiny place, but it’s not far off.

But this is the richest area in the entire Zhao Kingdom!
Jiangnan water town!
With a wave of his hand, the official gave almost everything to Song Yu!

This grace is unparalleled in ancient and modern times!
Even Prince Zhao Qi, who was hidden in the welcoming team, couldn't help but look at Song Yu with envy at this moment.

My father is not young, but he is still in his prime.

He doesn't know how many years it will take him to reach Dabao.

And Song Yu... this young man whom his younger brother Zhao Xiu had recommended to him several times before, but he was always hesitant and undecided whether to meet or not. Later, the young man who even wanted to meet but could not meet, had actually become a vassal king!

Daddy's outrageous behavior is simply shocking.

But unfortunately, after hearing this rumor, no one in the civil and military officials of the court, nor the people of Zhao State, objected!
The whole country applauded!
Daddy, an official family, also gained a great reputation because of this.

But for him, the prince, this is really not a good thing, and it gives him a headache just thinking about it.

Song Yu is three or four years younger than him!

He is also an extremely powerful practitioner.

Maybe in the future, even if his sons die, Song Yu will still be alive and well.

This is an ancestor in Zhao State!

Li Chaoen was shocked when he heard that the official family had granted Lin'an to Song Yu.

He looked at the officials in disbelief.

The official had a smile on his face.

Song Yu also had a dull look on his face and saluted the officials: "Your Majesty, I would never dare to accept it..."

The official looked at Song Yu and said, "You deserve this! How old have you become? How come you are no longer as sharp as before and have become more slippery? You should do your part!"

"It's settled like that."

Afterwards, Chen Qun continued to read loudly: "The princess of Chu, Xiao Qing, is given in marriage, and the eldest princess, Zhao Huan, is married to the king of Qi, Song Yu. The two princesses are both virtuous and virtuous, with extraordinary talents and good looks... They can be ranked as equals. Queen; the daughter of King Zhao Dan of Qi, Princess Zhao Qingyi of Hanjiang, and Princess Jiang Tong of Shuirou of Northern Qi were given the title of Princess Qi..."

Song Yu: "..."

Listening to this series of marriage offers, he suddenly became a big boy!
What's going on?What are you doing, official?
In the previous communication, there was no one else except Xiao Qing!

At this time, the people around him have completely fallen into a state of madness, and they like to hear this!

The expression on Li Chaoen's face next to Song Yu remained unchanged, but the corners of his mouth could not help but twitch slightly... This "sneak attack" by the officials was a sign that they understood politics!
This one is scheming, that one is scheming, who the hell can be better than an official?

There is nothing wrong with the emperor granting marriage to princes and kings who have regained half of the country and achieved unparalleled achievements.

But four people were given marriages at once...the mystery behind this was too deep!

Xiao Qing didn't need to say more, it was a natural success with Song Yu.

In this era of "arranged marriages", the official personally granted the marriage and elevated Xiao Qing's status to that of a princess. This was considered as giving Song Yu enough face and dignity.

But the last three, any one of them... they all have profound meanings!

Zhao Huan, the high-ranking eldest princess, is the favorite of the official family!

Even for her sake, he refused the marriage proposal of the Qi Emperor several times when the country was weak.

There is quite a posture of fighting anyone who dares to take advantage of my precious daughter.

Now she is directly married to Song Yu and becomes the queen of Qi together with Xiao Qing!

Is there any precedent for one king and two queens?
Why do officials who have let themselves go so long care about this?
With the great achievements of regaining half of the country and the current momentum of Zhao State, his reputation has now reached an unprecedented height.

Who dares question his decision?

If Song Yu, King of Qi, becomes his son-in-law, he can use it as he wants.

Can Song Yu refuse?

Looking at Zhao Qingyi again, this Hanjiang Princess is also the apple of Qi Wang Zhao Dan's eye.

Would Zhao Dan be happy to marry her to Song Yu?
Even though he hadn't seen his old friend for a long time, Li Chaoen knew that the old guy would laugh out loud when he heard the news!

Any other emperor would definitely not do this, for fear that Song Yu would become too powerful and rebel in the future.

He easily killed Chu Qinghui. Will the official who controls a mysterious red army care?

He was afraid that he wouldn't be able to completely tie Song Yu to the royal chariot!
Let's talk about Princess Shuirou Jiang Tong... this is a purely political marriage.

A hundred times more pure than the previous two.

Look at these titles given by the officials!

Xianggong Xiao was killed by Chu Qinghui and was posthumously named King of Chu.

Song Yu almost destroyed the Qi State in one battle, and was granted the title of King of Qi... and the land of Qi State!
It is said that one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers. How can there be two Qi principles in the world?

The official's heart is known to everyone!
Now that Jiang Tong was "given" to Song Yu, there really wasn't much to say, it was just for the Jiang family of Northern Qi to see.

How to choose, make your own decision!
Perhaps because they knew that their "sneak attack" on granting a marriage was a bit dishonest, the officials did not even let Song Yu express his gratitude, so they motioned to Chen Qun to continue announcing the decree.

The following are the rewards for a large number of Zhao generals such as Huang Teng, Zhao Fengqing, Matsumoto Zhi, Yan Yunxia, ​​and Su Chaoyun.

Titles and official positions were all given away for free.

Earth-shattering cheers kept coming from the mighty Zhao army.

……

……

Ever since Zhao Huan heard the decree, he was completely stunned.

Xiao Qing beside her also looked at her blankly.

a long time.

Amid the deafening cheers from all around, Zhao Huan slowly turned his face to Xiao Qing: "Sister, I said I didn't know about this matter, do you believe it?"

Xiao Qing finally came to her senses, but she also didn't know what to say.

The two have a very good relationship and are as close as sisters.

But this thing was indeed too sudden.

She nodded: "I believe it, but...are we going to marry the same man?"

Zhao Huan said in confusion: "I don't know, I'm not prepared!"

Xiao Qing suddenly laughed, took her hand and said softly: "If it were someone else, my sister would have turned against me by now, and rushed out in a rage to talk to the official."

Zhao Huan denied: "How crazy would I be in this situation... Although I admire Song Yu very much, I really... really have no idea of ​​marrying him!"

Xiao Qing said: "The official has granted the marriage in front of countless people, and this matter is a foregone conclusion."

Zhao Huan was speechless and remained silent for a long time. He couldn't help but whispered: "Dad said he wouldn't force me, but he broke his promise after all."

Xiao Qing asked: "Is sister unwilling?"

Zhao Huan: "I..."

She really wanted to say she didn't want to, but she still swallowed the words.

Are you really unwilling?
She has always said that she does not want to get married. Even if she does, she will marry a man who is upright and can conquer her.

In fact, Song Yu had already met her standards a long time ago.

However, because of Xiao Qing, she always adopted an avoidant attitude.

Now that the official announcement was made public, there was really no room for change.

Perhaps, as a father, the official also knows that this is the only thing his daughter will not refuse... a political marriage!
At this time, Chen Qun had finished reading the awards for most of the main characters.

Including Zhao Dan, who was renamed King of Wei, and Lu Tong, the military governor of Hanjiang, who was named King of Qin.

That's right, the officials did not favor one over the other. They also granted the title of King of Wei to their younger brother Zhao Dan!

He is also a vassal king!
It feels like he really wants to imitate the ancient rhythm of dividing the world.

Lu Tong, the governor of Hanjiang Festival, was named King of Qin, which also surprised many people.

Thinking about it carefully, it makes sense.

It is said that it is regaining lost territory, but in fact, it is no different from opening up new territories.

In particular, this territory is actually much larger than the original Zhao Kingdom.

For this kind of merit, it is not an exaggeration to be crowned a king.

In the end, only one Zhao Guojun god, Li Chaoen, was defeated...and no reward was given.

Many people are waiting.

But in the end, Chen Qun didn't wait to read the eunuch's name.

The official looked at Li Chaoen with a smile: "I won't give you any title. I know you are not interested in these titles. From now on, you can stay in Song Yu's Qi country to take care of yourself!"

Li Chaoen burst into tears instantly and bowed deeply to the official: "Old slave... thank you for your kindness!"

The official looked at Song Yu, who seemed to be in a state of confusion, and said angrily: "You have become a prince and king, but you still look so lazy, let's go and talk to you in your palace!"

……

……

"I am planning to move the capital back to Tokyo."

The official stood in front of the window of the imperial study, looked at the scenery outside and said, "I believe my father and brother will like it more."

Song Yu didn't answer. He felt that the Guan family seemed to have a lot of resentment towards his father and brother. They had just left the city to greet him without mentioning it, and they didn't even meet him for the first time.

Of course, it is also possible that they do not want to bring back those unpleasant memories of the people of Zhao State on such a happy day.

"Don't blame me for giving you several women at once, they are all excellent!"

The official turned to look at Song Yu: "I won't be afraid of you, but to be fair, I do hope to become a real family with you."

"I have always treated you sincerely. Although I didn't inform you about the marriage in advance, I just wanted to give you a surprise..."

Song Yuxin thought that the shock was enough. He looked at the official: "Didn't you say that you wouldn't force the eldest princess? You didn't ask her what she thought about this matter, right?"

He also saw the shocked expression on Zhao Huan's face when he heard about the marriage.

The official smiled and said: "She can't see clearly in her heart. She obviously likes you but refuses to face it because of Xiao Qing. I'm just helping her. If she didn't want to, I'm afraid she would have come to settle the score with me."
