Liaozhai Great Sage

Chapter 782
Li Xiuyuan didn't intend to ask about the affairs of the court anymore, what should be said was said, what should be done was done, and then let Zhao Jing to toss about.

Li Xiuyuan summoned his troops and gathered outside the main hall.

"Lord Li, gather your troops now, don't you just plan to leave, it's not dark yet, don't you plan to stay in the imperial city for a few more days?" Seeing that Li Xiuyuan was about to send troops to leave, Xia Houwu couldn't help asking hurriedly .

Li Xiuyuan smiled and said: "Don't go, why don't you stay here for dinner? If you ask for money, I can give it to you. If you ask for an official, you have to ask the new official in Zichen Palace instead of coming to me."

Yan Chixia on the side scolded: "Xia Houwu, if you want to become an official, you can stay here. With your merits, you must be named a general. Why come here?"

Xia Houwu blushed a little and said: "I'm asking for fame and fortune, there's nothing wrong with it, but speaking of Mr. Li, your palace has been invaded, and the dragon chair is under your buttocks, why don't you continue to do it? Sit down If so, I can have the cheek to be an official, but now I can't do it
It's so embarrassing. "

"Sit on the dragon chair, is it considered to win the world? When I sit, the whole world will rebel. The generals from all walks of life, the northward frontier army, and the royal nobles from all over the place will all raise their troops to kill me. At that time, the lords will fight for the throne, and the smoke will be everywhere. I don't have the confidence to level the world, but with swords and soldiers, the people of the world

How many more will die? "

Li Xiuyuan said seriously: "Letting Zhao Jing be the emperor is the best choice, and it can convince the world. After all, the national destiny of the Song Dynasty is still there, and it is not yet time to change the dynasty. Xia Houwu, go and work for Zhao Jing. It's not a problem for a general to be promoted to a noble. If I go back to Yangzhou, I can only be a general.

Rich man, you can weigh the gap yourself. "

"This, this." Xia Houwu was hesitant.

After finally making contributions, he counted on Guangzong Yaozu, earning both money and power, from a knight-errant swordsman to a court general, what a glorious thing.

In the end, Xia Houwu still decided to stay in the imperial city to earn fame, and did not choose to leave with Li Xiuyuan.

"I'm sorry, Master Li. I'm different from Yan Chixia. I'm not a practitioner. I'm just an ordinary person. I don't care about money, beauties, power and status, so I plan to stay. Of course, if Master Li has an order in the future, just say hello, I will definitely do it for you." Master Li, you serve." Xiahou Wu said.

Li Xiuyuan smiled and said: "You don't have to make such a vow, I also suggest that you stay. There is no general in the court, so it is always a hidden danger. It is best if you have the heart of fame and fame to stay."

"Eldest young master, what about us?" Mao Wu also asked impatiently.

At this moment, the eyes of the more than 1000 assembled soldiers are full of enthusiasm and anticipation. They are all men who dare to risk their lives. Now that they have entered the imperial city and changed the emperor, such a great contribution is in front of them. Nothing to gain?
If it wasn't for Li Xiuyuan's prestige being too high, it would be ordinary people who would be marching in the imperial city right now.

"I see you all in a hurry, don't worry, since you have come here with me this time, of course you will not be treated badly." Li Xiuyuan said; "I can give you the official positions below Yangzhou General Soldier, and I will discuss meritorious service when I go back. Rewards, if you want to ask for the rewards given by the general soldier, I can't be the master
, you can choose to stay with Xia Houwu and work for the new Zhao official family. "

"If it's a reward of money, it's enough. See if there are any yellow copper pieces scattered on the ground under the urn city. It's not brass, but made of gold. You can take it, as long as you don't take it. I still have the horse to crush me to death. In addition, I will ask Zhao Guan's family to ask for help.
As a reward, everyone, regardless of whether they survived or died in battle, will be knighted, and death in battle will be increased by one level. Although it is not very useful, it can be regarded as a little consolation. "Li Xiuyuan said.

The title of Song Dynasty is not worth much, but it is also a rare honor for ordinary people.

Bestow a gold title~!

Yangzhou promotion~!

Hearing such words, all the soldiers were immediately excited, and some even burst into tears.

This kind of reward is already considered the best for soldiers from poor families like them. As for the general and the general soldier, they didn't even think about it, because they can't get it by themselves.

"Thank you, General."

"General Renyi."

"It's no loss that you are the young master. You are so proud. The young one can work hard for the young master. This life is worth it."

These soldiers were so excited that some even knelt down and kowtowed to Li Xiuyuan to express their gratitude.

Li Xiuyuan said: "Don't be in a hurry to thank. When you look back, those brothers who died by the Longyin Lake, remember to collect the bones, buy a coffin for each person, and escort them back to their hometowns in various places. The titles, rewards, and pensions are all paid. No less, no less than 3000 taels per person, you can handle this matter at fifty cents."

"Please rest assured, young master." Mao Wu said immediately.

"Let's go, follow me out of the urn city to collect gold, and leave the garrison in the imperial city to the imperial army."

Soon, he led more than a thousand cavalry and left the city slowly.

None of the cavalry remained.

Not only because of the loyalty of the soldiers under his command, but because Li Xiuyuan's rewards are already very heavy, no worse than those from the new officials.

At this moment in the Wengcheng.

The golden body of the national teacher was shattered, and gold was scattered all over the ground.

How much gold is needed to cast an eighteen-foot golden body?
Incalculable.

Even though the inside of the golden body is empty, this amount is by no means less than a small golden mountain.

All the gold and silver collected by the national teacher in the past few decades, and the golden body cast into it, today is cheaper than Li Xiuyuan, and he used it to reward his subordinates.

When seeing the gold nuggets scattered all over the ground, the eyes of the soldiers under his command lit up,
But then they looked at Li Xiuyuan eagerly, waiting for the general's order, otherwise they would not dare to mess around.

"Go and get it, what are you waiting for, is it possible that this general will pick it up and deliver it to you." Li Xiuyuan scolded with a smile.

Immediately, these soldiers dispersed in a rush, immediately got off their horses, and excitedly went to fetch the huge gold nuggets on the ground.

Gold is very heavy and thick, even though it looks small, it takes a lot of effort to lift it up.

An eighteen-foot golden body is enough for more than 1000 people.

Li Xiuyuan looked at these people in full swing, excitedly picking up gold, couldn't help smiling, and was not in a hurry, so he found a place to sit down and wait for them, and then left the palace after they finished picking up gold.
"How many catties of gold did you pick up?"

"This one weighs three to forty catties. It's so damn heavy. Another thirty catties will be enough. I just don't know if I can handle it or not."

"Tsk tsk, this is really rich, how much silver is this much gold worth?"

"Who the hell is here to help, this big piece can't be lifted." A soldier looked at the big piece of gold on the ground, wanted to move it but couldn't move it, and couldn't help calling for help.

"Won't it break if you can't pick it up? You're too greedy, you want to take such a big piece, how do you transport it back?"

Li Xiuyuan smiled and threw the Tai'a sword out: "Go get my sword and chop it into pieces. If you can't move it, you still want it. You are not afraid of being crushed to death by gold."

"Thank you, General."

The soldier excitedly took the Tai'a sword, and after a few strikes, the large piece of gold was divided into small pieces, and then kept putting them into the leather pouch around his waist.

However, after filling a bag, it can no longer be lifted, and the rest can only be cheaper for others.

Each of the more than 1000 soldiers can get at least one bag full of gold.

From the urn city to various places in the imperial city, they scraped around the broken part of the golden body, and most of the gold was quickly picked up.

The horses are all carrying a heavy skin, even the speed of the horses has slowed down a lot. Many soldiers don't even dare to sit on the horses, for fear of crushing the horses.

In the evening, Li Xiuyuan summoned his subordinates after making sure that everyone had gained a lot, and left the imperial city after a while.

The request for the title was also passed on to Zhao Jing through the Forbidden Army.

"Did you only ask for more than 1000 titles for your subordinates?" Zhao Jing was taken aback when he heard the news, feeling very surprised.

Such a request is really insignificant compared to Li Xiuyuan's achievements.

"Let Master Li send the roster, I will approve it." Zhao Jing replied,
The eunuch went to deliver the order soon after he answered.

After Li Xiuyuan heard about Zhao Jingzhuntong, he asked Sha Jin to prepare the roster, ready to receive the reward as soon as possible, and leave the capital as soon as possible, so as not to cause any troubles by staying here.

And, as night came, he had other things to do.
