Go to the capital, the northern suburbs.

Winter has just passed, and the spring is still shallow. The green on both sides of the official road looks faintly visible from afar. When you walk closer, you can only see sparse grass buds.

From the morning, there were teams of soldiers and officials coming here one after another and stopping and waiting.

When the sun was at its peak, the emperor's ceremonial guard appeared at the other end of the official road in a mighty way.

The people who came to watch after hearing the news were shocked and asked each other about what was going on.

Finally someone showed off his answer, "I heard that these nobles are here to welcome King Li."

"King Li? Is His Highness Li who recovered Douchuan Pass last year?"

"But even His Majesty has come... The monarch is greeting him in person, which is a bit too much." Someone said hesitantly.

A man who looked like a scholar frowned, "The generals in the history books who asked the monarch to leave the city to welcome him have no good end."

Someone at the side retorted dissatisfiedly, "His Highness Li defeated so many Donghao's troops and took back all the Douchuan Pass. With such great contributions, let his nephew come out to pick it up. Isn't that okay?"

"That's it! If it weren't for Your Highness Li, maybe Donghao's army would have already entered. Look at how many generals can fight in the court now? If it weren't for Your Highness Li, I really don't know what it would be like." Someone agreed not far away.

"Why is King Li back today? I admire him the most!" A teenager was very excited.

An old man who looked like a rich man snorted, "Worship such a butcher? Have you never heard of him? He has a problem with his brain and will kill people when he goes crazy? Maybe he will go crazy and kill everyone later. When he sees it, will he let you go because you admire him?"

The young man said angrily, "Maybe don't say it! I think you, maybe it's a spy Donghao! Which Bei'an man would not worship His Highness Li?"

Just as everyone was talking, several cavalry suddenly rushed towards the front.

When they arrived in front of the Emperor's Royal Team, they quickly got off the horse and knelt down to report, "Your Majesty, the team of Li Wang is only three miles away!"

The eunuch boarded the huge and luxurious imperial chariot and knelt down to report.

The man sitting upright on the golden dragon chaise raised his head, and the pearls made of red, yellow, green, white and black jade beads shook gently, making people unable to see the expression on his face.

"Since that's the case, I should welcome you in person." Qin Youzhen said in a deep voice and stood up from the dragon throne.

When the emperor, wearing a bright yellow dragon robe and wearing twelve crowns and tassels appeared, all the officials and civilians in the audience knelt on the ground.

The rituals and music sounded.

However, the grand music was soon covered by the sound of horse hooves like thunder.

Everyone felt the vibration of the ground, looked up and saw flags waving in front of them, and the cavalry like dark clouds rushed over, and they came to their eyes in a flash.

The leader is tall, with white hair flying, and his eyes firm behind the evil ghost mask. This is exactly the target everyone was talking about just now, and rejoices Wang Qin Xinglie!

Seeing the situation in front of him, Qin Xinglie seemed a little stunned and turned over and dismounted.

Qin Youzhen has already walked forward a few steps. "Uncle Nineteen, I haven't seen him for many years. I miss him day and night. Today, I feel very relieved when I see Uncle Nineteen's style still.

As he said that, he reached out and held Qin Xinglie's hand.

Qin Xinglie has always been a pity for his words in front of outsiders.

As the king of a country, Qin Youzhen lowered his figure so much that he just replied without any fluctuation, "I've seen Your Majesty."

Qin Youzhen grabbed Qin Xinglie's hand and refused to let him salute. He said in a sincere tone, "Uncle Nineteen recovered Douchuan Pass and drove Donghao's army out of our Bei'an territory, and made contributions to the country!"

Qin Xinglie replied hoarsely, "Your Majesty is awarded."

Qin Youzhen's expression remained unchanged, and he pulled Qin Xinglie to the imperial chariot, "Uncle Nineteen is riding with me, I'm just wondering what happened to Douchuan Pass at that time."

Qin Xinglie frowned, "I dare not."

But the emperor seemed to be in high spirits and held Qin Xinglie's hand and kept saying "Why should I see you if you are a 19th uncle?"

The captives of Donghao who were captured by the Death Army in the Douchuan Pass and the heads of high-ranking officials who were killed by Donghao were all sent to Shangjing and were sent to the Taimiao to worship ancestors as a symbol of victory.

But the next problem we need to face is how to characterize this credit.

As an important barrier to resist Donghao's invasion, Douchuan Pass was occupied by Donghao's army, which was a great failure of Bei'an's military over the past few hundred years.

Correspondingly, King Li, who had not mobilized the Bei'an army at all, naturally made great achievements that had not been achieved in hundreds of years.

However, if this credit is truthfully defined, the court will give Qin Xinglie the corresponding reward.

But what else can Qin Xinglie reward for his current status? He is already the most noble super prince except the emperor and empress. In fact, he has all the control of Youjun County in the northern border, titles and fiefs, and has the strongest troops in Bei'an.

If you reward again, maybe you can only give up the throne to Qin Xinglie!

This is the case when it is said that great achievements are hard to reward.

If it is another minister, it will be a great success to shock the master. He simply removes the military power in his hands, exchanges for wealth and prosperity, and the family will be safe, even if it is for the sake of the wise king.

But how could Qin Youzhen dare to take risks with Qin Xinglie's personality and skills?

Therefore, Qin Youzhen discussed with the cabinet several times, and felt that he could only use the ultimate honor and reward, so that all the subjects of Bei'an could see the court's infinite honor and favor for King Li.
