Outside the gate of Nanyang City, Wei Zhongyou was waiting at the door with an oral order.
As soon as he saw several people slowly approaching the city gate, he immediately smiled.
"Congratulations to the brave general on his triumphant return."
“Ouch~”
The horsemen suddenly pulled the reins and dismounted following the brave general.
The brave general skillfully took a water bag from his horse's back and handed it to Wei Zhongyou, "Eunuch Wei, it's been a long time since we last met. You're still the same!"
Wei Zhongyou shook the water bag slightly and felt a little excited when he smelled the aroma of wine emanating from it.
"General, please don't bother me. His Majesty is already waiting in the palace. Please come with me."
The brave general stroked his beard with a smile and took a few steps forward secretly.
"Excuse me, eunuch, if this goddess is..."
His words made Wei Zhongyou's face change slightly. He looked around hurriedly, and when he saw that no one heard him, he leaned his head forward slightly.
"General, now is not the time to talk about this. The goddess is not in the palace now. You will know when you enter the palace."
The brave general seemed to feel that what he said was inappropriate and quickly covered his mouth with his hands.
"I'm being abrupt."
They followed Wei Zhongyou on horseback to the palace gate, where they surrendered their weapons and finally walked to the Golden Throne Hall.
In the Golden Palace, Emperor Wenkang had been waiting for a long time.
As soon as he saw Wei Zhongyou appear outside the door, he didn't want to listen to any more words and immediately summoned them into the hall.
Wei Zhongyou received the order and took a few people directly into the hall.
The brave general walked calmly in front, while the people behind him were nervous.
They were different from the old generals. They entered the palace for the first time only after having made great contributions on the frontier.
It was a good thing that you didn't kneel down immediately when you met the emperor for the first time.
But Ouyang Yue was different. Although she was also nervous, her nervousness was mixed with a hint of excitement that was difficult for others to detect.
She hadn't seen Sister Xin for half a year and didn't know if she was okay.
The moment the sky curtain appeared, she could hardly believe her eyes and ears.
Who could tell her why a goddess who was so high and mighty would transform into an ordinary person and go to her house?
It would have been fine if I had just gone to her house, but she was so shameless as to ask the goddess to bring her out.
When Ouyang Yue thought of the scene at that time, he felt a sense of sadness.
When they parted, she was still a little girl who was afraid to see blood.
But now, she has become a young general who can easily chop off the heads of Hu people.
I don’t know how she will face Sister Xin later. Will they still be able to talk freely like before they parted?
Ouyang Yue, with mixed feelings, knelt in the hall with several others.
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. Long live the Emperor."
As soon as the brave general lowered his head, Emperor Wenkang, who was sitting at the top, saw the white hair on his head.
Emperor Wen Kang felt a lump in his throat and raised his hands repeatedly to ask the brave general to stand up.
"Quickly, please excuse me. Come, give the brave general a seat."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
The brave general sat awkwardly in the hall, not really used to Emperor Wen Kang's concern.
Emperor Wenkang first asked about the brave general's situation over the years, and then talked about the reward issue this time.
The defeat of the Hu people this time made Emperor Wenkang very happy. Naturally, he rewarded these meritorious officials without hesitation.
Because General Shenyong had already been a first-rank general and Marquis Weiyong and could no longer be promoted, Emperor Wenkang did not give him any reward in terms of title.
In addition to rewarding the brave general with ten thousand taels of gold and countless gold, silver and jewelry, he also picked out a smaller fairy peach from the goddess and gave it to him.
"General Shenyong has made great contributions to the Yu Dynasty. It is natural for the old general to enjoy this magical item."
"I thank the goddess and your majesty for the reward. I will definitely enjoy it."
The brave general was so excited that tears were about to come out. He never thought that he would have the chance to obtain a magical object in his lifetime.
Although it was just a peach, it was also a fairy peach. Considering that no one else had it, the brave general cherished the peach even more.
The other ministers looked at the peach in the brave general's hand with envy.
They had also heard of this peach. It was rumored that it was planted by the goddess herself, and so far only His Majesty, the Queen, and the Queen Mother had received it.
Now that Your Majesty is so generous, they also want it.
Emperor Wen Kang laughed heartily. After rewarding the brave general, he began to reward his left and right arms.
Several people's official ranks jumped two levels, and even the lowest one was promoted to the fifth rank.
However, when it was finally Ouyang Yue's turn, something unexpected happened.
"Your Majesty, no."
General Ping Kou, who had just been promoted to the rank of Fifth Grade, came out and pointed at Ouyang Yue standing beside him and said unkindly, "Your Majesty, this man has deceived his superiors and subordinates in the military camp and committed a heinous crime. I hope Your Majesty will reconsider this."
The brave general and his men were startled for a moment, and their sharp eyes swept directly towards him.
He deceives his superiors and subordinates in the military camp. Does this person know what he is talking about?
Emperor Wenkang frowned, "General Pingkou, if you can't tell me what this young General Ouyang did to deceive his superiors and his subordinates, I will punish you."
General Ping Kou calmly pointed at the ear hole above Ouyang Yue's ear and said loudly, "Your Majesty, Ouyang Yue is clearly a woman, but she disguised herself as a man to enter the military camp. Isn't this deceiving the superiors or something else?"
Everyone on the field was stunned, even the expression on Wen Kangdi's face froze for a moment.
They must have heard it right!
