Zhao Fei chatted with Lin Shuang for a while and immediately rushed to the emperor's palace. When he arrived, he saw the emperor, Lin Huai and Ye Zhengdao drinking.

"I thought you kid would always avoid me and never see me." The emperor blamed Zhao Fei when he saw him.

"Shibo, I didn't return to Yangyang City until the afternoon. Mr. Lu and the others are going back tomorrow. I'm late to say goodbye to them. You won't punish me for this, right?"

"You are a general of our army, how can I punish you? Hurry up and sit down and let us have a cup of celebratory wine." The emperor said with a smile.

After Zhao Fei sat down, he first toasted to the emperor, then to Ye Zhengdao, and finally to Lin Huai.

"Boy, tell me what you think of the current situation." The emperor looked at Zhao Fei and asked.

"Shibo, this battle has achieved the expected results and severely damaged the Great Liang Kingdom. I don't think they will launch another attack in the short term, but this does not mean that the war has stopped. They will definitely come back, and when they come again it will be more violent."

"How long do you think it will be before they come back?" the Emperor continued.

"If it's faster, it's about half a year, if it's slower, it won't be more than a year." Zhao Fei thought for a while and replied.

"That is to say, we have half a year to repair, so let's use this time to repair it properly." The emperor immediately expressed his position. He believed in Zhao Fei's judgment.

"Yanyang City cannot afford the living of so many people. Let the people of Heshuo City go back. After all, that is their home." Zhao Fei suggested.

"There is no problem with this. There is no need to mobilize them at all. As long as they are allowed to go home, everyone will probably rush back." Ye Zhengdao took over and said.

"Well. This is indeed the case. There is no need to worry." Lin Huai also thought so.

"Heshuo City must strengthen its fortifications without any slack. We do not rule out their early attack."

"I have already thought about this and have already started doing these things. Don't worry about this." Lin Huai said.

"Your Majesty, the killing of millions of Daliang soldiers this time has greatly improved the morale of the soldiers. I think you should reward them based on their merits and give them some praise." Zhao Fei suggested.

"I've already thought about this, Lin Huai, please report the list of those who have made meritorious services, and I will reward them."

"Your Majesty, my elder brother is compiling the list and will report it to you tomorrow." Lin Huai said quickly.

"The list you reported here is the list of soldiers. You commanders and generals must also give rewards. What should you reward?" The emperor was thinking.

"Your Majesty, these are what ministers should do. We don't need to reward you. We only need to reward the soldiers." Lin Huai quickly declined.

"I have my own sense of responsibility for this matter, so you don't need to say anything. Prime Minister, I told you to write it down and issue an edict tomorrow to announce it to the world."

"Yes, Your Majesty, please tell me." Ye Zhengdao immediately got ready.

"The first imperial edict is to confer Lin Huai the title of King Heshuo and lead both ministers."

"Your Majesty, this is absolutely impossible. Since the founding of the Canglang Empire, no one has ever been named a double king, and I would never dare to accept it." Lin Huai quickly refused after hearing this.

"Lin Huai, do you want to disobey the edict?" the emperor said loudly.

"King Heshuo, why don't you thank me quickly?" Ye Zhengdao said hurriedly.

"My lord, Lin Huai, thank you for your kindness." Lin Huai had no choice but to bow and salute and accept the reward.

"The second imperial edict is to confer Lin Wudi the title of Marquis of Heshuo, with the rank of general."

"I thank Your Majesty on behalf of Lin Wudi." Lin Huai stood up again to thank him.

"The third imperial edict conferred the title of Duke Baoguo on Lin Guozhong, and the title of Marquis of Annan will continue to be retained."

Lin Huai was shocked when he heard this. The emperor had given the Lin family so many compliments. Zhao Fei sat there silently, drinking alone.

"The fourth imperial edict conferring Zhao Yi the title of General of Chariots and Cavalry, with both leaders in charge."

Hearing this, Zhao Fei still didn't speak. Lin Huai quickly looked at Zhao Fei and motioned for him to thank him.

But Zhao Fei remained indifferent.

"Zhao Fei, why are you just drinking and not talking?" the emperor asked Zhao Fei.

"Shibo, what do you want me to say? You are making Zhao Yi, not me. They have all grown up and have their own choices. If he wants to be a general, he can thank himself. I can't make the decision for him, either.

It will not dominate his life. He has his own path to take and his own choices."

"Yes. You are right. What kind of reward do you want?" the emperor asked Zhao Fei.

"Shibo, I am not interested in these titles, but I would like to recommend a few talents for Your Majesty to use." Zhao Fei said with a smile.

"Okay, tell me who they are."

"The first person is called Ye Huan. He is Ye Lin's counselor. He is talented and resourceful and is worthy of a big job. I recommend him to be the city lord. He will definitely be qualified for the job."

"Haha. Boy, this is not your best friend." The emperor said with a smile.

"As long as he has the ability, can be loyal to the Canglang Empire, and is loyal to His Majesty, he can be reused."

"Okay, then I'm sure. Prime Minister, later you can arrange which city he should be placed in."

"Yes, Your Majesty, I will definitely handle it." Ye Zhengdao replied repeatedly.

"The second person is Ye Lin. He made mistakes and dealt with our Zhao family. But Ye Lin Youfeng has rich experience in managing the city. He is much better than a novice. Although Ye Lin has some mistakes and flaws, he has regretted it.

. I believe that as long as he is given a chance, he will be able to repent and turn over a new leaf. I recommend him to be the acting city lord, and if he performs well, let him be the city lord."

Ye Zhengdao was stunned when he heard Zhao Fei recommending Ye Lin to be the city lord. Didn't he recommend him to be a deputy general? Why did he recommend him to be the city lord? But Ye Zhengdao was immediately happy. How could a deputy general compare with the city lord?

"Haha. It's rare for a good nephew to be so generous. I'm sure."

"On behalf of my nephew Ye Lin, I would like to thank His Majesty for your kindness." Ye Zhengdao immediately knelt down to express his gratitude.

"Get up, Prime Minister. If I want to thank you, just thank Zhao Fei."

"My dear nephew, thank you." Ye Zhengdao cupped his hands and thanked him.

"Uncle Ye, you're welcome. Just remind Ye Lin to take care of himself." Zhao Fei waved his hand.

"Your Majesty, after this battle, we can see the gap between us and the Great Liang Kingdom. The Great Liang Kingdom has many experts, but our generals are weak. I suggest that you recruit more talents and enrich them into the army."

"I know this, do you have any good ideas?" the emperor asked hurriedly.

"Your Majesty can issue an imperial list, and masters of the God Refining Realm under the age of forty can be recruited into the military camp. Fame and money may not impress them, but for martial cultivators, training resources are extremely attractive. We have the Shengyang Pill, so we are not afraid.

They won't come."

"Hahahaha. This is a pretty good idea, you're right." This was the happiest thing for the emperor today.

"We can let the Prime Minister take the lead on this matter, and let King Pingxi and King Zhendong help." Zhao Fei suggested.

Ye Zhengdao was greatly moved after hearing this. Selecting talents for the country is a great power. Once they take power, they will all be their own disciples and former officials, which is no small matter.

"Okay, let me know if you have any other suggestions." The emperor thought for a moment and immediately agreed.

"This time, the Prime Minister showed great bravery and made outstanding contributions. Shi Bo, please look at the reward." Zhao Fei didn't know how to award Ye Zhengdao, so he made a suggestion and let the emperor decide.

"Yes. The Prime Minister has made great achievements this time and deserves to be rewarded." The emperor nodded.

"Your Majesty, this is what a humble minister should do. I am ashamed that I dare not let Your Majesty give me a reward." Ye Zhengdao quickly stood up and declined.

"Do you have any other suggestions or requests?" The emperor asked Zhao Fei again.

"Shibo, no more, it's all finished." Zhao Fei shook his head.

"Xuejiao has done a great job this time, why don't you give her a reward?"

"Shibo, what's the use of having so many rewards for a woman's family? In the end, she still has to take care of her children at home and support her husband and raise her children. If this war hadn't happened,

She won't ask for any title." Zhao Fei rejected the emperor's proposal.

"Should I give you a title?" The emperor said with a smile.

"No, I don't want to be burdened by my title. It would be great to be free like this." Zhao Fei quickly waved his hand and refused.

"Shibo, I have a suggestion. This time you personally fight a big battle and wipe out millions of enemies. This is a great victory. Since there is no war in the short term, and you have left the imperial capital for almost three years, shouldn't you return in triumph?

Class teacher returns to the court?"

"What you say always touches my heart. Well, since we have won a great victory, we will return to the imperial court." The emperor happily agreed.

It has been three years since the emperor came to Heshuo City, and the emperor's personal expedition was somewhat impulsive. The changes in the battle situation were not satisfactory, and sometimes he wanted to return to the imperial capital but was defeated by Wu Ming.

This big victory really gave him an excuse, so he took this step to return to the imperial capital.

"Prime Minister, make preparations first. We will return to the court in a few days. After three years away from the Imperial Capital, I still miss everything about the Imperial Capital very much."

"Your Majesty, please rest assured. I will make arrangements for you as soon as possible." Ye Zhengdao quickly agreed. After all, he also wanted to return to the imperial capital.

"Your Majesty, I also want to take a leave of absence. I want to go to Qinghuang Town to see Xue Jiao and my grandchildren. I have never seen them since they were born." Lin Huai quickly requested the order.

"I'm sure, but you must make arrangements for Heshuo City before you can leave."

"Your Majesty, don't worry. After I leave, my eldest brother Lin Guozhong will temporarily take charge of the overall situation of Heshuo City. I will return to Heshuo City on time within half a year." Lin Huai said quickly.

"Okay, since you have made arrangements, my beloved, you should leave Heshuo City as soon as possible and go back to visit your relatives." The emperor approved Lin Huai.

"Shibo, I will leave Yangyang City tomorrow. I have other things to do, so I won't wait for you to leave with me. Besides, our routes are different. I want to go back to Huang Town." Zhao Fei said goodbye to the emperor in advance.

.

"You didn't wait for your father-in-law to leave with you?" The emperor was a little surprised.

"My father-in-law and I are taking different routes. I still have some things to deal with on the way." Zhao Fei explained.

"Zhao Fei told me about this matter. He will leave first and I won't be able to leave until a few days later." Lin Huai also said quickly.

"Okay, I won't interfere with what's going on between you." The emperor chuckled.
