Chapter 3 Understanding

3days ago traverse Novels 3
All officials and generals who returned from Helong were promoted and rewarded, but Xue Chongxun did not. He was only given some gold and silk to show the emperor's reward.

Logically, the biggest contributor to the Helong Victory should be Xue Chongxun. He is the main general, and he should be granted a title according to the system of rewarding merits. The problem is that his previous title was too high, so how could he be granted a title as a prince?

The one who granted military power was Princess Taiping, but now she went to Huaqing Palace, but she left the matter without paying attention to the aftermath.

The contradiction at this time cannot be reasonably resolved by law. Not to mention that Li Chengning now does not have the strength to deal with Xue Chongxun; even if he has the strength to deal with King Jin at this time (there is a way to eliminate it when he cannot give more rewards), it will also bring huge adverse consequences.

After seeing the emperor and the generals came out of Hanyuan Hall with Xue Chongxun, the others could not ride horses in the palace and could only walk. Xue Chongxun could also walk with everyone, and he could explain some things on the road.

The snow had not stopped yet, and there were many servants sweeping the snow in the wide square between the palaces. They were wrapped tightly in the wind and snow, and at least they had to ensure that there was no thick snow on each road.

Xue Chongxun turned around and said: The Shence Army had to repair it when it was traveling a long distance back to Chang'an. Wulang and Yin resigned to make arrangements and let everyone rest for a few days... If there was no accident, there would be nothing to do until after the New Year.

After hearing this, the general responded.The crowd said casually on the road. Even if it was a small meeting, Xue Chongxun ignored how to complete those things.

Perhaps because of the limitations of the scale of manpower and transmission technology in ancient times, Xue Chongxun was already accustomed to the top-down organizational form of the Tang Dynasty.

The commands are all vague. You only need to convey an intention downward, and everyone will use this intention as a fulcrum to complete it according to experience and your own ideas.

It is not as rigorous and meticulous as modern management methods, and personnel at all levels have great autonomy at this time.

Sometimes Xue Chongxun thinks that this seemingly backward system is very efficient as long as it is properly employed.

For example, when Xue Chongxun designed the pool with live water flowing behind the Mansion Academy, he never tires about how big the bamboo tube is needed, how much inclination is, and how the water flow rate is needed...

In just one sentence: Let this pond live, it must have a quiet artistic conception.

Then the craftsmen can come up with various ways to achieve their goals and do it very quickly. This has to be said to be the hardworking and skillful talent of the Han people.

After leaving the Ming Palace, Xue Chongxun found that Pang Er, who was driving the car in the mansion, was already waiting by the street outside the palace gate. Pang Er touched his head and said: Mrs. Sun is both wind and snow outside, so she asked me to drive the car to wait for Lang Jun.

The generals took their own horses and said goodbye to Xue Chongxun. They had to take care of the various affairs of the Shence Army first.Xue Chongxun and a few aides had nothing to do, so they were ready to go home.

It happened that Wang Changling also lived in Anyifang. Because his house was given to him by Xue Chongxun, Xue Chongxun invited him to the same car.

So the guard of honor walked south along the east side of the Tai Chi Palace wall. There were three people in the same car, in addition to Xue Chongxun, the main pavilion, and Sanniang, who was inseparable but easily overlooked, because she said too little.

The convoy passed through the streets and alleys, and various sounds of urban life outside came into the curtains.After a while, I heard a child's song again.

Everyone was a little tired and didn't say anything, so the song clearly reached its ears: The ghost is in the mountains, the fortune of the wheat girl is the king of the world.Ghosts are in the mountain...

Xue Chongxun became sensitive when he heard the words Wang Tianxia, ​​but his literary talent was limited and he did not understand the meaning of the nursery rhyme for a while, so he turned to look at Wang Changling.

Wang Changling's face changed and he knocked on the carriage and said: Stop quickly!

Xue Chongxun asked: What do these few songs mean?

Wang Changling looked at Xue Chongxun in shock, probably thinking that he could write some good poems, so why didn’t he understand such a simple meaning? He said: This is a song from Cao Wei when the Han Dynasty was usurped by the Han Dynasty. It was very strange that he suddenly sang it in the market!

Oh... Xue Chongxun responded lightly.

Wang Changling pushed open the car door and said: I'll go down and ask those children who taught them to sing.

Xue Chongxun thought about something, but did not stop Wang Changling, and just said casually: They are all children, what can they ask?

The chariot and horses stopped on the street, waiting for Wang Changling to walk towards the alley.

Wang Changling seemed to care about this matter very much, but Xue Chongxun didn't care and sat in the car and watched.

Seeing that Wang Changling was taking out some gadget and squatting down in front of a girl in a red coat, Xue Chongxun was happy after seeing this, and turned around and smiled at Sanniang: Do you think Shao Bo looks like a weird uncle who coaxes the little girl with a lollipop?

Sanniang had no expression on her face, and she couldn't understand the jokes implicitly in Xue Chongxun's words.Xue Chongxun was a little uninterested when he saw this.

After a while, Wang Changling came back and said: I didn’t ask anything.

Xue Chongxun smiled and said: How did you do it?

Wang Changling said depressedly: The child said that his parents taught her not to ask for strangers' things, and even shouted that I was a bad person, and then the children ran away in all directions.

Parents are well educated.Xue Chongxun still kept smiling. Come up, don’t pay attention. A big deal cannot be achieved by just writing a few nursery rhymes behind the scenes.

Everyone was about to leave when suddenly a crisp shout: Xue Lang!Xue Chongxun looked back and saw a girl wearing white mink fur riding a horse. Who wasn't Bai Wuchang?

At first glance, she was quite normal. She wore a hat on her head and covered her white hair. Her little lips and chin were exposed outside, looking delicate, looking like a lively rich daughter.

Xue Chongxun picked up his fists reflexively: Bai Qimei, why did the cold weather come out?

Bai Wuchang's cool figure jumped down from his horse and walked over with a grievance: If you throw yourself alone in the mansion, you two men and women will run out to have fun...

Sanniang was shocked. When Xue Chongxun saw that the situation was going to be bad, he saw that there were many followers and soldiers on both sides. Bai Wuchang might have to pounce in public and act like a fool, so that everyone could watch it.

He hurriedly reached out and pulled: Let's get on the carriage and talk.

Wang Changling said awkwardly: I'd better ride a horse.

It's okay.Xue Chongxun shook his head and said, thinking that my dear girl was still the one I helped you get from the brothel. How can I pretend to be pure with me?

Bai Wuchang was already tired of Xue Chongxun's body and started to act coquettishly. Xue Chongxun knocked on the carriage and said in a verbal voice: Pang Er, let's go.

You also said that you will be back soon, and it will be a few months. I can't find anything in the mansion and I'm so idle that I'm almost crazy. If Mrs. Sun hadn't had to pay for some money, I would have to go to work in my old business. Don't blame me for causing trouble for you at that time.

Bai Wuchang spoke in a coquettish voice.

At this time, Sanniang couldn't stand it anymore and looked out the window coldly and said: Life is better, but I'm not used to it. It's better to have a life like before, I've lived today but not tomorrow, and I've had the same meal, and I've been worried all the time.

Bai Wuchang stared at Sanniang with wide eyes and said unhappy: No one thinks you are a mute. It is rare to hear you say so many words, and it is very smooth!

Xue Chongxun smiled but said nothing, and Wang Changling sat upright and looked like a gentleman with no squint.

Don't worry about it!Bai Wuchang hugged Xue Chongxun's arm and pressed his face to his shoulder. From today on, I will stick to you. I will go wherever you go, and don't think of throwing me in the mansion again.

Xue Chongxun is rarely patient and very good-looking, with a smile on his face: I have to raise a group of wives in my family, so I have to do some serious things. What can you do with me?We are officials, so we can't let anyone who doesn't like you, just stab you to death...

Bai Wuchang's big watery eyes rolled around and said: "Zi said that you will not receive any reward without merit. I have to do something if I spend your money. Otherwise, I will be your book boy and Changsui. I will knock on those officials who follow you and never leave for a moment, just like a follower...

Sanniang said coldly: Don’t use your own words, I want to laugh at you.

Xue Chongxun was happy and said: Look, half-illiterate knows that you are not even as good as Sanniang, and you still have to be my book boy.Besides, it’s not like this that you can mess around everywhere, you can do something bad with me.

... Sanniang's face turned pale and she stopped talking.

Although everyone rarely uses the word illiterate, she can easily understand that this is not a good thing, probably just blindness.

Bai Wuchang said: You underestimate people too much!I don’t always make a fuss, ask ‘semi-illiterate’.

She had a fuss for a while, and then asked Tianyan: What gift did you bring to me?

Xue Chongxun said: I brought some Western Region jewelry and good fur from Longyou. My subordinates have already sent them to the mansion. I will take them out after I go back.

Bai Wuchang said: Didn’t you highly reward in the palace?Oh, I heard that you killed 500,000 people in Tubo. How much does the emperor have to pay you?!

How could it be that many people could be killed? The purpose of fighting is not entirely to kill people. Just achieve strategic goals. Besides, less than one-third of the casualties in the battle formation were killed or injured.

One third... Bai Wuchang calculated by counting his fingers and would have to have more than 100,000 lives!According to our rules, you have made a fortune. If the emperor rewards you, just give the country to you to pay off your debts...

Be careful!Wang Changling, who had never spoken, suddenly spoke up righteously.

Bai Wuchang reached out and pressed his chest, frowned and said: Shao Bo Wang, who are you scaring?After a sudden shout, I can compare with Sanniang.

Wang Changling said: Disaster comes from the mouth. Xiao Niang should understand the importance of loyalty, filial piety, and etiquette, not to mention that it is related to the country. How can such a traitor be joking?!

Bai Wuchang was not afraid of his seriousness at all, but instead said with a smile: If you help Xue Lang collect debts, you will be the prime minister or a minister, what is wrong with glorious ancestors?
