meet again

Chapter 581

Everyone looked at the past together.

His Highness the Crown Prince smiled like a spring breeze, and stretched out his hand to help him: "Get up quickly." After Shen Youxie En stood up straight, His Highness the Crown Prince patted Shen You's shoulder affectionately: "I haven't seen you in a few years, you are still the same as before." appearance."

It's still the same look of being immobile and silent.

Of course, there are still changes.The maturity and stability brought about by the passage of time, and the mighty and chilling skills cultivated by the soldiers all the year round, make people feel awe-inspiring, and it is natural to ignore that overly handsome face.

Shen You met His Highness the Crown Prince's eyes, and opened their mouths in response: "I haven't seen you for eight years, Your Highness the Crown Prince is much more dignified than before."

His Highness the Crown Prince, who was a little frail and handsome at first, grew a short beard and matured a lot.

Zhu Yun couldn't help laughing: "How can you learn to flatter horses?"

There was a touch of intimacy in the casual tone.

A smile flashed in Shen You's eyes, and his tone became lighter: "His Royal Highness knows the temperament of the general. The general will never lie, let alone flatter, and speak the truth."

The two smiled at each other.

In the eyes of everyone, this is also reasonable.General Meng is the chief general, and it is true that Yuan Jiang is the uncle of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.As for Shen You, who was born in Jin Yiwei, he entered the Yan Palace as an servant at the age of 15, and he and His Highness the Crown Prince have known each other since they were young.Isn't it normal to meet and make out?
After exchanging pleasantries, General Meng and his party welcomed His Royal Highness into the tent of the Chinese army.

Prince Zhu Yun personally read out the imperial decree, commending the soldiers of the frontier army who had won the battle, and read out the awards to General Meng, Yuan Jiang and Shen You.

The rewards of the rest of the generals were not listed in the imperial decree.The Ministry of War issued a thick list of official documents.There is no need to read them out one by one.

On that day, General Meng ordered the gang leader to kill pigs and sheep to prepare water and wine, and reward all the soldiers of the frontier army.The military generals in the army gathered in the big tent of the Chinese army and drank fine wine with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

After all, in the military camp, it is not advisable to be too willful, let alone get drunk.

After Shen You drank a few cups, he stopped.By the way, he glanced at Shen Jia at the next table.

Shen Jia also made great contributions this time, was promoted to a higher rank, and will be a general in the future.It can be said to be proud of the spring breeze, one glass after another of fine wine.Shen You's eyes signaled that Shen Jia didn't pay attention at all, and was happily drinking with his colleagues.

Shen You was afraid that he would get drunk and go crazy and make a fool of himself in public, so he simply apologized to His Highness the Crown Prince, and using convenience as an excuse, stretched out his hand and dragged Shen Jia out of the army tent together.

It was cold and windy outside, and when it blew in the face, Shen Jia's drunkenness suddenly became three points sober.

"Third Brother, I know you're happy." Shen You whispered, "However, His Highness the Crown Prince, don't be careless."

Shen Jia rubbed the back of her head, and said casually: "Our brothers have been working as servants in Prince Yan's Mansion since they were teenagers, and have known His Highness for more than ten years. There is a need to be so careful!"

Shen You was in a complicated mood, and said lightly: "I haven't seen you for a few years, you and I have changed a lot. His Royal Highness's temper may also be quite different from the past. We should be more careful."

Shen Jia is careless and informal, and listens to advice the most.When Shen You reminded him, he nodded immediately.Then I went into the tent again, and I was much more honest.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, sitting at the top, had a panoramic view of this scene, which was a little funny and a little embarrassing.

To Shen You, he is the prince, and Shen Jia is the brother.

……

This night, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince slept in the barracks of the Chinese army as a matter of course.

The next day, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince did not go to inspect the barracks, but went to the wounded barracks.Not long after the war, some of the seriously injured soldiers had died, and some were still struggling to survive.Regardless of whether they can survive or not, they will not be able to go to the battlefield in the future.

Feeling sad, Zhu Yun said to General Meng: "General Meng, these wounded soldiers must be treated well and placed properly."

General Meng is famous for caring for soldiers. Hearing this, he replied in a low voice: "Your Highness, don't worry! The last general has issued a military order long ago, and he must do his best to treat them. If they can be rescued, let them return to the fields with rewards. Return home. Soldiers who died of serious injuries will send their ashes back to their hometowns, and all the pension money will be sent to their relatives, not a penny less.”

Behind just a few words, I don't know how much effort and manpower will be spent.

General Meng refused to show his merits, how could Zhu Yun not know, and he was immediately relieved.

Father Huang's eyes are like torches, and he has the knowledge of people.This general Meng is good at leading troops, has a harmonious temperament, and his love for soldiers is by no means pretended.

It is indeed much stronger than the great uncle Yuan Qing.

In the next few days, His Royal Highness went to various military camps.The first one to go was the Zuo Army Infantry Battalion led by Yuan Jiang.After looking around, Zhu Yun secretly nodded in his heart.

Yuan Jiang has a bad temper and is a little arrogant, but he is quite capable in running the army.

It was rare for Yuan Jiang to see his nephew, so he had to sue Shen You in private, and complained nonsense: "This Shen You has his eyes high above the top, and he doesn't care about the Yuan family at all, and he has no respect for me. In terms of official position, I am about the same as him. In terms of age, I must be 20 years older than him!"

Zhu Yun restrained his smile and glanced at Yuan Jiang: "How did I hear that Fifth Uncle often relies on the old to sell the old and oppresses others?"

Yuan Jiang: "..."

Yuan Jiang never expected that the prince would choke on such a sentence in front of him, and his old face could hardly hold back.

Zhu Yun was not polite, and said with a straight face: "I know that the fifth uncle is very angry. Back then, the eldest uncle was defeated and was deprived of the post of general. Fifth uncle thought that the vacated position of general should be yours as a matter of course. Yes. But the emperor sent General Meng to be the chief general, and Shen You to lead the cavalry battalion."

"Fifth Uncle has always been resentful, and feels that the Emperor Father has treated the Yuan family badly. Therefore, in the past few years, Fifth Uncle has joined forces with the Yuan family's son Lang and his family's subordinates in the army, secretly competed with General Meng, and pushed Shen You out."

"These, I'm not wrong!"

Yuan Jiang was speechless. He wanted to say something to his nephew, but he couldn't say a word.

Because, he did all these things.

There was only one thing he didn't expect.

He always believed that Emperor Qing'an was the one who weakened the power of the Yuan family.I never thought that His Highness the Crown Prince would also agree.

Zhu Yun's eyes were bright and sharp, and he fixed his eyes on Yuan Jiang's stiff and ugly face: "Today, I might as well make my words clear. The frontier army is now divided into three, and the three factions restrict each other and balance power. The emperor is happy to see it, and so am I."

"With me and Dong'er here, the Yuan family can maintain their wealth for decades."

"You can't be too greedy. As foreign relatives, the Yuan family still retains military power and has a huge influence in the army. Father and emperor are benevolent and righteous, and I, the prince, have a clear conscience."
