"I'm finally back."

After a year of going there and two years, when I came back, I felt that the willow trees on both sides of the official road became much more friendly.

It was still the same routine as before. Zhao Xu, who had a beard, took all the civil and military officials out of the city twenty miles to welcome Wang Xiao back.

The merits of seizing the land of Yanyun this time are even greater than those of the previous destruction of Xixia.

Everyone was so excited that they were only Wang Xiao didn't care much.

It's right, it's not the first time he has seized the land of Yanyun. He has long since lost his excitement.

He was still a routine compliment, and paraded the streets. Zhao Xu invited Wang Xiao to get on the imperial carriage, crossed the city gate to the streets, accepted the crazy cheers of the people along the way, and finally came to the palace.

For Wang Xiao, who had seen and even lived in many palaces himself, the palace of the Song Dynasty was really too small.

It was still a grand banquet, or music, singing and dancing.

Starting from Zhao Xu, the royal relatives who were qualified to go to the palace, the ministers in the court stepped forward one by one to toast Wang Xiao, thanking him for regaining the land of Yanyun.

After the banquet, he did not discuss Wang Xiao's promotion, so he went home and went to rest.

As for the reason, of course I don’t know how to reward you.

Theoretically, the great merit of regaining Yan Yun is enough to be the king. However, the kings of the Song Dynasty, who were conferred a title after their death, were posthumously conferred a title. Now, the voices of opposition are too strong.

The other thing is promotion.

Since the news of Wang Xiao seizing Yan Yun came, the discussion on how to arrange him has begun.

There has been no formal result since the discussion, so it can only be put on hold for the time being.

This time, Wang Xiao arrived in Bianliang City in the morning. He had a banquet in the palace at noon, and he was drunk and left home in the afternoon.

After two years of separation, Wang Xiao's eyes almost turned green.

When he returned to the mansion, he jumped directly from the carriage and rushed straight to the backyard like stepping on clouds.

Wang Xiao was already impatient.

"Young chicken."

"bump."

"Why is it Erbiao again?"

"It's so bad!"

Wang Xiao, who was standing at the door, looked at Mingyue's room in surprise, and several beautiful girls were building the Great Wall.

"Master, are you back?"

Mingyue, who had just lit the cannon, looked up and saw Wang Xiao at the door, and hurriedly got up and ran over.

Li Qingzhao, wearing a purple gauze dress, also stood up and explained, "We went to pick it up when you entered the city before. Later, when you went to the palace for a banquet, we thought we would have to come back in the evening, so we played for a while."

It is now the sixth year of Yuanfu, and Li Qingzhao is already twenty years old.

In ancient times, this was a real leftover woman.

That is, when Wang Xiao left two years ago, he was hired early, otherwise he would have no face to meet people.

Wang Xiao has not been in Bianliang City in the past two years, and Li Qingzhao has come here often.

Although she was just recruiting, she already regarded herself as her future hostess.

Li Gefei's tutoring at home was very strict. Li Qingzhao, who had accepted mahjong as a gift, couldn't do it. She simply brought the little sisters to Wang Xiao and pulled Mingyue to have fun together.

The other two brands are Li Qingzhao's little sisters.

Judging from their clothes and buns, they should have married women.

"It's okay, you guys keep playing." Wang Xiao gave Mingyue a look inward and greeted him with a smile. "I've drunk too much during the palace banquet, so I'll go and rest first."

When Wang Xiao left, the two little sisters surrounded Li Qingzhao with envy and praised him.

"You are so lucky to marry the King of Kings. It is really a blessing to cultivate for several lifetimes."

"That's right? I heard from our officials that the King of Kings made the contribution of the sky this time. He may be named the king."

Li Qingzhao was proud of her, and she was worth waiting for him for so many years. But she definitely couldn't say that, and she still had to be humble.

The head of the family has returned, and no matter how addicted he is, the game can't continue.

This involves the issue of ethics. Not to mention that Li Qingzhao has not been married yet, even if she has married, she can't continue playing.

I wanted to ask when did you marry me? But the current environment is obviously not suitable. She could only leave with two little sisters first.

She could not stay here at night anyway before the formal wedding.

After seeing off Li Qingzhao and the others, Mingyue raised her hand and patted her little face, her face was already hot.

Wang Xiao endured it for two years, but she was the same.

He whispered to the maids to stay away and not to disturb the main building.

After arranging these, she trembled a little and walked towards the main building with a hint of uncontrollable joy.

Wang Xiao returned to Bianliang City for half a month, but he never left the house except for Li Gefei's house.

Even Huang Tingjian, Mi Fu and others came to celebrate but didn't go out, so they just had a banquet at home.

It is common people who think that Wang Xiao is working hard for many years and needs rest.

But Zhao Xu and the ministers in the court understood that Wang Xiao was exerting pressure invisibly, waiting for them to give rewards.

Could it be that the unparalleled achievements of regaining Yan Yun are gone? Just like a joke.

There is no need to mention anything else. Just the leisurely mouth of the people in the world, they can crawl out of the coffin board as all their ancestors said.

Compared with the shameless water being too cool and its scalp itchy, the officials and scholars of the Song Dynasty were still shameless.

At least the scholars and officials before the Huizong Dynasty were still shameless.

After constant discussion and many times, he sent people to Wang Xiao’s mansion to consult his own opinions. Finally, Wang Xiao’s reward was determined.

In terms of title, he still failed to be crowned king alive.

His title was promoted to the founding Duke of the Kingdom, and his official title was the founding Duke of Yan County.

As compensation, Zhao Xu conferred Wang Xiao's unformed son to inherit the title of a generation.

In fact, Wang Xiao himself did not pursue the title of king too eagerly.

If he directly granted the title of king, it basically means that he can fade out of the court.

If it is just a founding Duke, then this is the standard for my husbands.

There is nothing to say about material rewards. There are a lot of copper coins, gold and silver, silk and satin, antique calligraphy and painting, wine and utensils, etc.

As for the position, Zhao Xu's first son, Zhao Mao, was only a few years old and had already been appointed as the prefect of Kaifeng.

Of course, Zhao Mao could not handle the complicated affairs of Kaifeng Prefecture, and Wang Xiaoquan was still in charge of Kaifeng Prefecture.

Speaking of which, Wang Xiao has been away from Bianliang City for more than two years, the Kaifeng Prefecture still operates smoothly and there is no problem. This is also a skill.

The bachelor's degree in Longtu Pavilion was promoted to the Grand Secretary of Guanwen Hall, which is a position that only those who have been husbands are qualified to serve.

Since he is already a Grand Secretary of Guanwen Hall, he naturally needs to improve again.

Kaifu Yi and the three departments were in charge of the three ministers, Shangshu Youpu She and the Secretariat of the Secretariat. This is Wang Xiao's actual position.

The meaning of opening a government office is to allow the establishment of a government office and recruit staff. Generally, only those who are ranked among the three Dukes, Situ, Sima, and Sikong have this qualification. Therefore, they are called Sansi.

However, during the Song Dynasty, I didn’t pay much attention to this honor, so basically anyone who can be called a husband has the qualifications.

The Shangshu Right Pushe and the Secretariat Secretariat Secretariat were the Right Prime Minister, who was in charge of the Secretariat Secretariat. He was under the Left Prime Minister and was the second person in the court.

In order to give Wang Xiao a free place, former prime minister Han Zhongyan had to complain to his illness miserably.

He was able to get on the post before, but he actually got a bargain. It is natural to give up his position now.

As for the one who replaced Han Zhongyan, it was naturally the former right prime minister Cai Jing.

Theoretically, the Secretariat has the right to make the final decision, while the Menxia Provincial Department has the right to review. As for the Secretariat, it is responsible for the implementation of actual work.

For example, a disaster occurred somewhere.

The Secretariat received an imperial edict from the emperor to allocate 200,000 yuan to rescue disasters, and agreed to implement it if he felt it was OK.

Then this imperial edict will be handed over to the school to review whether it is agreed.

If you don’t agree, you will have to send it back for revision. This is the so-called rejection of the imperial edict.

If you agree, you will complete the review and then hand it over to the Shangshu Province to carry out this matter.

This is to divide the power of the prime minister who originally had great power.

The prime minister of the Han Dynasty made his own suggestions, reviewed them himself, and finally implemented them himself.

In terms of the order of resources, of course, the left is bigger than the right minister.

But in fact, Wang Xiao and Cai Jing divided the Shangshu Province equally. Then one had the right to make a decision, and the other had the right to review it.

If you are determined to make trouble with each other, nothing can be done.
