Chapter 250 A Special Reward for Wei Yan
Feng Yao was stunned, speechless for a while, looking at Wei Yan's respectful expression, he felt joyful and sad at the same time, he was so happy that he finally saw the right person, Wei Yan was absolutely impossible to be that kind of person who "has rebellion in the back of his head! "The sad thing is that Wei Yan doesn't know how to be tactful. This is when he met himself. If he was replaced by another person casually, he would not like Wei Yan, who is rigid and ignorant.

Wei Yan lowered his head, waiting for Feng Yao's order, and after a long time saw that things were different, he raised his head slightly.

"My lord?" Wei Yan called out softly, with a bewildered look on his face. He didn't know why Feng Yao had such a complex expression, which he had never seen on Feng Yao's face.

"Oh, Wenchang, I have a task for you to complete now!" Feng Yao said.

Wei Yan immediately straightened his body and said loudly: "Please tell me, my lord, my subordinates will definitely complete the task of my lord!"

"I order you to choose the most beautiful and most virtuous three from those female slaves! These three beauties are the gifts I want to reward you as your concubines, and there is one more thing, tonight you must let the three beauties Concubine, rain and dew!" Feng Yao ordered.

"This...?" Wei Yan was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Feng Yao to be serious about this matter, but Wei Yan quickly responded loudly: "Observe!"

"Also, for the rest of the female slaves, let's reward them all, so that those brothers who returned from the bloody battle can get comfort! Let their blood of loyalty and bravery be passed on!" Feng Yao said.

"Yes! But, my lord, you...?" Wei Yan said.

Feng Yao knew what Wei Yan wanted to ask, but the timing was not suitable at all. The soldiers who had just arrived from Qu County had already celebrated their meritorious service, and the newly recruited recruits had yet to achieve an inch of merit. Only the best soldiers can enjoy it, and as the commander-in-chief of the three armies, he has to set this example.

"If I can't take back Yanzhou, I can't repel Liu Biao, I won't touch wine and sex again! Therefore, the army you lead tonight is the luckiest! Well, while there is still half a day left, go and deal with those The spoils of war, in addition, all the soldiers you lead will be rewarded with [-] yuan each, so that those soldiers who did not get female slaves can also get some comfort!" Feng Yao said.

After carefully listening to Feng Yao's order, Wei Yan nodded, took his leave again, and quickly stepped out of the study, his footsteps were much calmer and firmer than before.

"My lord, it's time for us to give a big reward. Many soldiers have made enough military achievements!" Xu Shu stood behind Feng Yao, watched Wei Yan leave, and stood up.

Feng Yao nodded, and said: "Yuan Zhi, I also know, but the current situation is not suitable, and the present reward will definitely break the current balance, and there will be a big transfer of personnel, which is extremely unfavorable for fighting against the enemy. It’s better to wait a little longer, when the overall situation is settled, and our army returns to Pingyu before awarding it!”

At this time, Liu Shun suddenly came in from the outside and presented a letter: "My lord, this is a letter from Yangzhou! It's Zhiyue's private letter!"

Feng Yao opened it immediately, and it was indeed written by Zhi Yue himself.

The letter wrote: "My lord, it has been several months since I left. Many things have happened in the past few months, but they are mostly small things related to the family and personal affairs. But it is these things that make me understand a lot of truths. , now I have married a very beautiful and virtuous wife, although not as good as Xiao Qiao, but she can calm my heart even more!"

"My lord, you once said that a good man has ambitions in all directions, so now this subordinate really wants to return to the lord's side, follow the lord to fight the world, and be able to advise the lord! But the subordinate also knows that Runan is currently under Liu Biao's attack. Among them, the subordinates very much want to lead an army to relieve the siege of Runan, but Mr. Liu Fu has no intention of attacking Jiangxia at all!"

"I am writing this letter to ask my lord to allow me to resign from the post of Lujiang county magistrate, and then, with the help of the tribe, recruit an army in my hometown to attack Jiangxia, force Huang Zu to retreat, and relieve the Runan war. Wai!"

At the bottom of the letter is the inscription, which reads the words "Dunshou Baibai", "Zhiyue Jingshang", and the last is the date: the fifteenth day of the first month of the second year of Xingping!
After reading the letter, Feng Yao said with a smile to the generals: "This letter came at the right time! Perhaps Zhi Ziqing is the key to breaking the balance of the battle in Runan!"

"This is really God's help!" Xu Shu said happily.

"Could it be that Zhi Ziqing is Zhi Yue, the counselor who helped the lord regain Runan?" Jian Yong asked curiously.

Feng Yao nodded, and said: "Exactly, now I want to appoint Zhiyue as the school lieutenant to lead the army to attack Jiangxia alone, what do you all think?"

"No, my lord, although Zhiyue has many schemes, his military merits are not enough to become a captain. In addition, even if Zhiyue is named a captain, it is just an empty title and cannot increase the number of troops he leads. I suggest that Zhiyue can be appointed Sima of another department first, if Zhiyue can make Huang Zu retreat, and then be promoted to captain, this will also convince the generals!" Xu Shu said.

"I also think that Zhiyue's position should not be elevated!" Jian Yong said.

In fact, Feng Yao didn't want to make Zhiyue a school lieutenant. Zhiyue is best at not leading troops in battle, but making suggestions, or managing counties and counties!But Zhiyue can be regarded as a veteran in the army. If the position of the seal is low, Zhiyue's heart will be chilled. If the generals can come forward to oppose it, it will not only give Zhiyue face, but also achieve what she wants. Yes, that is of course the best.

Xu Shu and Jian Yong had already objected, but Feng Yao still wanted to know what Xu Chu and Dai Ling thought, so he took the initiative to ask Xu Chu, "Zhongkang, how do you think Zhi Yue's position will be arranged?"

When Xu Chujian asked, he immediately said without hesitation: "I don't think it's appropriate either!!"

Asked Dai Ling, Dai Ling said: "No matter what, I will support the decision of the Lord!"

Feng Yao saw that all the generals disagreed, so he said: "In this case, let Zhiyue be appointed Sima of another department for the time being! Let him recruit troops locally!"

Then he ordered his subordinates to write the document, took a bronze seal of Sima of another department, handed it to Liu Shun, and said: "Send your cronies to deliver this seal to Zhiyue quickly, and he will understand what I mean when he sees it." !"

"Yes, my lord, this subordinate will order my subordinates to deliver it overnight!" Liu Shun took the seal.

Lujiang County, Yangzhou

郡府
After Zhiyue finished handling the affairs in the county, she went into her room and closed the door. His wife greeted her and asked, "Husband! When can we go back to Wan County? I don't want to live here any longer. My body is also getting heavier day by day, if I delay it any longer, I'm afraid I won't be able to withstand the bumps of the horses and chariots!"

Zhiyue sympathetically helped his wife to sit on the couch, and said: "Good wife, wait a few more days, there will be results!"

At this time, a maid brought a basin of hot water and put it in front of Zhiyue, "Master, please wash your hands!"

Zhi Yue nodded, but didn't move immediately, and looked at the servant girl and said: "Go and call my follower Zhi Yong, I have something to tell him to do!"
