Chapter 372 Oracle
Before leaving Cangnan Province, Lin Muyu did three things.
The first thing was to sneak into Jiangdong at night, capture five armored demons who stayed in Jiangdong scouts, and all of them were locked in iron cages and transported them to Lanyan City. This was what Feng Jixing asked.
The second piece was presented to the Ministry of Works for the Sky Crossbow drawn by Qin Ziling.
The third thing is to concentrate the military power of the Fourth Legion to Qin Yan. Lin Muyu didn't know when he would go back to the Fourth Legion when he went there, so he could only let Qin Yan control the army first. As for the Temple Army that expanded to nearly 20,000 people, the Gentian Battalion has been merged, and the Temple Camp is included in the Gentian Battalion sequence, which is collectively called the Gentian Battalion.
...
The journey is long, and when the group of people returned to Lanyan City, it was already summer and autumn. The road was covered with red maple leaves. Qin Yin returned to Lanyan City and couldn't help but feel excited. She had a faint smile on her beautiful face. The red maple leaves drifted down under the autumn wind and fell under the horse's hooves of the empress and a group of generals.
The north gate of Lanyan City was wide open, and countless ministers stationed in the imperial capital were welcomed out of the city, shouting long live the mountains and connecting them together.
Qin Yin nodded with a smile on his face. Lin Muyu and Feng Jixing slowly entered the city on both sides. Then it was Gong Lan and Gong Yun's carriage. Under Wei Qiu, the 20,000 Longdan Camp was postponed to enter the city again. It was stationed in the camp behind the temple, which was also taken on the important task of protecting the imperial capital with the imperial guards.
The ministers followed the empress into Zetian Hall, where the banquet was held at noon and the matter was discussed in the afternoon.
After the banquet, everyone entered the main hall of Zetian Hall.
Lin Muyu, Feng Jixing, Chu Yao, Zhang Wei, Wei Qiu and others all had smiles on their faces. Lin Muyu even talked about many things after the separation with Chu Yao. Only then did they learn that Chu Yao was traveling between the headquarters of the Shen Cinema, Lengxing City, and the Cangnan Province's Lingyao Department these days, and suffered a lot in order to prepare the potion.
Tang Lan's face was not very good. Tang Lu and Tang Tian were waiting for the empress's ruling with a look of ashes. The merits and demerits of the Battle of Daojiang were left to the Lanyan City ruling. They were reluctant, but they still came as promised at this moment.
"His Highness the Empress goes to the hall." The servant shouted.
The two maids held Qin Yin's long skirts dragged behind her. She had already changed into a brand new empress robe. Her long hair was elegantly coiled up. The empress's crown was shining with a faint bright light. Qin Yin insisted on wearing a sword. The purple sword was hanging around her waist. She pressed the hilt of the sword and walked step by step to the front of the Emperor's throne without sitting down. She stood there pretty and said: "The Battle of Daojiang River forced the demons to retreat. Thank you for your hard work. On behalf of the Qin emperor, Qin Yin, thank you for your support and support for the family."
Everyone knelt on one knee: "Long live Your Highness."
Lin Muyu and Feng Jixing knelt side by side. Although as a modern person who has traveled through time, he only knelt on the sky, kneeling on the ground and kneeling on his parents, he felt relieved at this moment. He knew that one day he might marry Qin Yin. After entering the realm of the God Emperor, he would gain the power of reincarnation and take Qin Yin through time and space to return to his original world. At that time, he would have to kneel on the keyboard and adapt to it now.
Qin Yin raised his arms in a majestic manner and said with a smile: "Please calm down, don't be too polite."
Everyone stood up one after another.
Qin Yin looked at His Highness’s ministers and then smiled and said, “In a battle with the demons, Feng Jixing, Lin Muyu and Xiang Yu made great achievements and had to reward him. So I decided to promote Feng Ji to act as a first-rank general, give him 100,000 gold, and promote Lin Muyu to the second-rank general of the State, command the Longtian camp, and protect the imperial capital with the imperial guards, promote Xiang Yu to the first-rank general of the mighty heaven, give him 200,000 gold, and be named Marquis of Pingnan."
Everyone congratulated each other: "Congratulations to Commander Feng and Commander Yu, congratulations to General Xiang Yu for his title of marquis."
Lin Muyu looked up at Qin Yin in surprise, but she did not expect that she would actually be named a marquis of Xiang Yu. In fact, this time, Xiang Yu's military achievements in the battle against Daojiang River were not as good as hers. It seemed that it must be the pressure given by Tang Lan. After all, Xiang Yu is Tang Lan's person. To make Xiang Yu bigger also means that Tang Lan's power in the empire is also steadily increasing.
Qin Yin continued: "The rest of the generals also have rewards. The demon clan is different from the Yihe Kingdom. The demon clan is even more fierce and powerful. Therefore, Qin Yin modified his military merit system and in battle with the demon clan, he killed one armored demon and promoted the leader of the Shi, killed two armored demons and promoted the centurion, killed five armored demons and promoted the leader of the thousand men, and killed more than ten armored demons and promoted the leader of the ten thousand men."
At the king's foot, Wei Qiu clasped his fists and said with a smile: "Report to Your Highness, Commander Yu fought Qianfeng on Daojiang, and the power of one palm killed hundreds of armored demons. According to the new military system, Commander Yu is already promoted to the marshal of the empire."
Zhang Wei grinned and said, "The last general also supports His Highness to enthrone the commander Yu as the Imperial Marshal and take charge of the troops in the world."
Qin Yin couldn't help laughing.
At this time, Tang Lan smiled and said, "A few generals are kidding. The title of Imperial Marshal is too important. Not only should you be brave and invincible, but you should also be extremely intelligent. At present, no one in the empire can bear this position. The future is long, and Commander Yu needs to be tempered."
Lin Muyu clasped her fists and smiled: "What Mr. Lan said is that Lin Muyu knew that she was talented and knowledgeable, and did not dare to overtake the position of marshal."
Tang Lan smiled: "Master Yu is too humble."
Lin Muyu's eyes signaled Wei Qiu, and Zhang Wei and the other guys stopped clamoring, otherwise there would be no sense of seriousness in the court, which would make Qin Yin unable to get out of the stage.
Qin Yin smiled and said with a beautiful face: "But the retreat of the demons does not mean that the empire is stable. The empire is still in danger at this time. There are demons in the east, Yihe in the south, and nomadic barbarians in the north. Please do not slackew. Civil officials govern the country, military generals protect the country, train their troops diligently, and guard the territory to the death. Once we have enough strength, we will kill the Qinling Mountains of Daojiang and regain every inch of land lost by the empire, so that the world will be surrendered, and the people will no longer suffer from the war, and enjoy peace and happiness forever."
Su Muyun looked up at the granddaughter, with a little more admiration in her eyes. The repeated baptisms of war also made Qin Yin look more and more like a monarch.
Not long after, the ministers dispersed one by one, and Lin Muyu returned to the temple.
...
At night, Qin Yin held a banquet in the back hall of Zetian Hall, only a few people were invited, including Lin Muyu, Feng Jixing, Chu Yao, Wei Qiu and Zhang Wei. Zhang Wei was very happy when he received the invitation. This represented a kind of recognition of the empress. Everyone knew that those who could come to the banquet tonight were regarded as confidants by Qin Yin.
The candlelight shone brightly in the back hall, and several maids served on the left and right. Soon after, a full table of delicacies was ready.
Qin Yin held the jade cup and looked at everyone with a smile, saying, "I won't say anything, drink a drink first."
Feng Jixing smiled and said, "Okay, have a drink."
After drinking it all, Lin Muyu asked with a smile: "Xiao Yin should have a banquet for the ministers of the imperial capital, why did she only invite a few of us?"
Qin Yin's eyes were faint and said, "Because... because almost everyone here has lost their parents in this war, they are all fatherless people, and Xiao Yin has long regarded you as their own family. If it weren't for you, wouldn't this life be very lonely and desolate..."
She spoke very quietly, which made Chu Yao, who was beside Lin Muyu, unable to help but blush her eyes.
Originally, Chu Yao had family and Chu Huaijian, the caring brother, but now there is nothing, only everyone.
Lin Muyu is also alone in this world. Wei Qiu and Zhang Wei are the same. It seems that everyone is the most painful part of his heart by Qin Yin. Zhang Wei drank a glass of wine and said, "Zhang Wei is a rough man. No matter whether this is your highness's skill or not, just with your highness's words, even if Zhang Wei fights his life, he will never betray Your Highness."
Feng Jixing nodded like a: "Feng Jixing agreed."
Chu Yao smiled slightly: "Xiao Yin, and Xiao Xi's family..."
"Xiao Xi..." Qin Yin smiled softly and said, "Xiao Xi is guarding the Western Demon-Shenzhen Pass, and she doesn't have much time to come to the imperial capital. Thank you so much for your hard work..."
Lin Muyu said: "It will be fine when the demon gate settles down. Moreover, after Tang Town and the demon clan's saint Linghu Yan get along day by day, I believe Xiao Xi will be able to live in the imperial capital forever."
"Well, I'm looking forward to this day, too."
"Come on, drink and eat." Lin Muyu pinched the chopsticks and added a piece of wild pheasant leg meat to Qin Yin, saying: "Since it is said that it is a family, you have to look like a family, eat more and talk less about state affairs."
"Haha, yes." Feng Jixing smelled the wine in the wine glass and said, "The wine given by Your Highness is mellow. It is better to enjoy a few jars of wine in a while and let my subordinates take it back to the tent to enjoy..."
Qin Yin smiled and said, "Isn't drinking prohibited in the army?"
"Ahh, I brought it to Lao Zhang."
Zhang Wei widened his eyes: "Master Feng, you are so unrighteous."
Lin Muyu laughed, but at this moment, everyone suddenly felt a powerful force shrouding from the sky, and even a wisp of sound similar to the sound of Sanskrit could be heard in his ears. The sound was full of majesty and inviolability, and this force was very sacred and quickly shrouded the earth, just like the rising sun.
"What's wrong?" Qin Yin stood up and said in surprise: "What's going on."
Outside, an imperial guard rushed in, clasped his fists and said, "Your Highness, it's an oracle... The oracle has arrived in Lanyan City."
"Ah, the oracle..." Qin Yin was stunned: "The oracle has not appeared in the empire for hundreds of years, so how could it appear?"
"What is an oracle?" Lin Muyu was confused.
Qin Yin explained: "The so-called oracle is a guide for human beings by the gods in the gods. In other words, there are some words that gods in the heavens want to say to humans. Don't say so much, let's go out and take a look."
"Um."
