Houfu Key Class

The bared teeth of the onlookers all retracted in an instant.

"It's fake, it's all fake. The four of them were able to pass the exam. It's really crazy."

"Is it because the questions from the Ministry of Rites are too easy, or are prodigies becoming less and less good now?"

"It's so arrogant. I'm sitting here doing a lion dance to show off. I really want to beat them up..."

"Then bear with me, none of these kids can be beaten."

"..."

The lion dance team returned to Zong's house in a lively manner. Zong Jincheng directly organized a parade for the leader of the children's department. Half of the people in the capital knew that this year's first place in the children's department was He Zheng.

The firecrackers in Yuanyanghou Mansion were crackling, and the old lady was extremely cooperative with her grandson, barely pulling up the banner.

"Go home, go home!"

The four young boys were waving to everyone and were about to enter the Hou Mansion. At this time, there was a sudden noise from the direction of the city gate, followed by even louder cheers.

"The army is back!"

"Our soldiers have returned victorious!"

"Quick, quick, go meet them!!"

The common people swarmed to the gate of the city. Not to mention them, even the four young men were excited. They hurriedly climbed down from the lion dance and ran outside.

"The army is back!!"

"We won the battle!!"

"Oh, ho ho, that's awesome! Go and see!"

"Don't say anything, keep an eye on Jin Cheng!" After Xu Wan finished her instructions, she also took Cui Liu and chased after him.

All the people were happy when the army returned from the victorious battle, but this also meant that Luo Jingfeng was also back. The image of the little devil almost being strangled to death by him two years ago was still vivid in her mind, and Xu Wan did not dare to let down her guard.

Both sides of the long street were crowded with people. Soldiers blocked both sides of the street. A rebellious figure gradually appeared in the middle lane. The leader, Luo Jingfeng, smiled arrogantly and arrogantly. He naturally accepted the people's love for him.

The little devil was watching the army approaching, but when he looked up, he saw Luo Jingfeng's face. He immediately rolled his eyes and cursed a traitor in his heart.

But I can only think in my heart that now the people are worshiping Luo Jingfeng. If he shouts now, he will be hung up and beaten.

Shen Yibai suddenly shouted, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Jincheng, Jincheng, look who that is! He's so powerful, not inferior to General Pingxi at all."

Zong Jincheng looked up and saw that the figure was indeed extraordinary. He was tall and wearing a suit of armor today. He looked majestic. The moment he raised his eyes, his eyes were as bright as a torch, like the return of the righteous God of War.

"Dad! That's my dad! That's my dad! My dad is back too!" The little devil suddenly screamed, covering his face and stomping his feet in excitement.

"Ah? That's Uncle Zong!" He Zheng was stunned.

Shen Yibai and Wei Xinglu were both confused. They had heard Jin Cheng say some time ago that his father was back, but he had never seen him. Who would have thought that they would see him now? He was indeed as good as Jin Cheng.

"Uncle Zong! Uncle Zong is so awesome!" Several kids waved at them desperately.

But there were too many people, and several young boys were squeezed into the sea of ​​​​people, and they couldn't even see their heads. In the end, Zong Jincheng thought of a way and asked the servants to carry them on their backs, but unfortunately, the army had already passed by.

The little devil hurriedly got off the servant, ran to Xu Wan and said excitedly: "Mom, mother, have you seen it? Dad is inside, dad is also inside, dad came back from the border, he has been fighting all these years!"

Xu Wan saw it.

As early as when Zong Zhao left a letter saying that he would return at the end of the month, she had vague suspicions. She thought it was Zong Zhao who went to pick up Luo Jingfeng, but what she saw just now was not like that. Zong Zhao was riding a tall horse in front of Luo Jingfeng. Feng was on his side, not in the same place as the receptionist.

More than half a month ago, he suddenly rushed back after a long journey... was it to save the prince?

I see.

On the carriage home.

Zong Jincheng was still grabbing Xu Wan's sleeves excitedly and said: "Let me just say that our victory this time was strange. We suddenly won the battle and even conquered three cities of the opponent. How could that big traitor be so powerful? He must be dad." , it must be my father’s great contribution!”

The little devil is always so confident.

He is the strongest, his brother is the strongest, and his father is the strongest.

Xu Wan scratched her head when she heard this: "Calm down, the palace is discussing merit and rewards right now. Don't wait until the results come out, so you don't have to rejoice in vain."

Zong Jincheng snorted and said proudly: "It must be my dad. My dad will definitely be granted a special title. Mom, just wait and see. That Luo Jingfeng won't be arrogant for a few more days. My dad is back, haha, My dad is back, hoho.”

The little devil king is already fantasizing in his heart that his father will take him to defeat all the invincible opponents in the world, kicking Luo Jingfeng and punching big bad guys, beating them until they cry bitterly and kneel down to beg for mercy, hahahahaha...

Xu Wan couldn't help but roll her eyes at his characteristic of showing all emotions on his face. She reminded: "Don't make up your mind. I'm not willing to help you fight without saying anything, and your father is even less likely to do so." ”

Zong Jincheng's fantasy scene was instantly shattered. He retorted with a face: "How is that possible? My father loves me. He even touched my head when he saw me last time. He must love me more than Buyan."

"...It's really a wrong payment to say the least."

"Hey, mother, let's go to the palace gate to pick up dad. It's too slow to wait at home. I want to see dad. Last time, I was so pressed for time that I didn't even talk to him properly." The little devil suggested.

Xu Wan thought for a while and said, "That's okay. Just be good and I'll take you there. We'll wait at the palace gate from a distance."

Zong Jincheng nodded fiercely and swore: "I promise not to cause trouble."

The battle report from the front line had been delivered to the emperor long ago.

While waiting for the army to return to the court, the emperor had already sent people to draft the content of the reward. In addition to some gold and silver treasures, the commander of this expedition, General Pingxi Luo Jingfeng, was named the Duke of Protecting the Country, and his descendants could enjoy the hereditary title.

Luo Jingfeng was originally a first-rank general, the head of the military officers, and there was nothing else to be named. It was more reasonable to be named a Duke.

But the emperor then said: In addition to Luo Jingfeng commanding the entire army, the general who made the greatest contribution in this war was Zong Zhao. He led his troops to break through three cities of Youguo, was brave and good at fighting, and was resourceful. Not only did he vent the anger of Da Chu for hundreds of years, but he also made the people more trusting of the court.

Zong Zhao was specially named: General Zhenxi, enjoying the official title of a first-rank military officer, and was given a general's mansion.

When the reward was announced, the whole court was in an uproar.

The court has never stipulated how many generals there can be in the court, but since more than a decade ago, there has only been Luo Jingfeng, who is the undisputed leader of military officers.

And now another general has been appointed. Is this to let Zong Zhao compete with Luo Jingfeng?

The officials have heard that more than half a month ago, Zong Zhao suddenly rushed back to treat the prince, and then met with the emperor for a whole day. No one knows what they said.

But looking at the situation, it should be that the emperor wants to use Zong Zhao to deal with Luo Jingfeng, but the most amazing thing is that when Zong Zhao went to the military camp, he was appointed as a general by Luo Jingfeng on the front line.

Luo Jingfeng used him, and the emperor appointed him.

Zong Zhao's sudden return not only shocked all the officials, but also made them confused.

Who does Zong Zhao belong to?
