The best eunuch

At night, thick clouds cover the stars to prevent them from being mischievous, and a crooked moon hangs alone in the sky.

Yang Jian and Liang Xin sat in the tent and ate wine and meat. When the wine was a little drunk, Yang Jian held Liang Xin and talked about his suffering in the Kingdom of Jin with his nose and tears.This time, Jin Guo and Yang Jian had a real grudge, and Yang Jian swore to the sky that he would not avenge this grudge in the future and would not be a human being.

While persuading Yang Jian, Liang Xin drank with him until he got drunk and helped him to rest on the bed.As for Liang Xin himself, he tried to run "Breaking the Void and Establishing the Way" once, and the alcohol in his body instantly turned into sweat and evaporated.

Rescuing Yang Jian, Liang Xin's expedition can be regarded as a successful conclusion.Under the leadership of Liang Xin, the iron cavalry of Xichang went back to the court, and the news about the battle had already been delivered to Zhao Ji in Bianjing early in the morning.

Knowing that Liang Xin made another remarkable achievement, Zhao Ji was very excited. He had already ordered the whole city of Bianjing to celebrate Liang Xin's great victory.Now Bianjing is waiting for Liang Xin to go back and enjoy the glory that belongs to the winner.

But on the day Liang Xin just left Zhending Mansion, the news that Liao Kingdom Huanglong Mansion was destroyed by Jin Bing reached Liang Xin.Liang Xin was furious after hearing this, and scolded Liao Guo as a teammate like a pig.

Huanglong Mansion is where the treasury of the Liao Kingdom is located, and it is no exaggeration to say that it is the economic lifeline of the Liao Kingdom.Now being taken by Jin Guo, the slight advantage he had just gained was now instantly overtaken by Jin Guo.

With a depressed mood, Liang Xin and Xichang cavalry finally returned to Bianjing.It has been almost a month since he went out to fight, and now he sees a strong sense of fatigue rising from Bianjing Chengliang Xin.

Approaching the city gate of Bianjing, Liang Xin suddenly saw that there were imperial guards maintaining order from the gate of the city.Liang Xin's heart moved, and he secretly thought that the emperor came to greet him in person, right?

Walking through the city gate, Liang Xin suddenly saw civil and military officials standing in rows, and the emperor Zhao Ji sitting under the canopy.Seeing Zhao Ji, Liang Xin hurriedly got off his horse, knelt down and saluted: "My humble minister, Liang Xin, see the emperor. May my emperor live long and live long!"

Seeing Liang Xin dismount, the Xichang cavalry who followed Liang Xin also dismounted one by one.The voice of Shan shouting long live gradually spread.Liang Xin bowed his head and said: "Blessed with the blessing of the Holy Majesty, I am fortunate enough to come back victorious without disgrace."

"Good!" Zhao Ji stood up and clapped his hands.The imperial attendant who followed Zhao Ji immediately opened the imperial decree and read: "Following the heavens, the emperor ordered: I will inherit the precious life with my lord, and I will show you a great plan, and I will give you a gift for my birthday. The admiral of Xichang, Known to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the commander in front of the palace, loyal Hou Liangxin, born in a small family but full of loyalty and courage, and never slacking off in the sacred order, the virtuous minister and benevolent son will take it as a model. Now Aiqing returns triumphantly and makes great achievements again , specially conferred the crown prince Shaobao, a hundred taels of gold, and horses in the palace. In addition, the iron cavalry of the West Factory will be rewarded later according to their merits. This is it!"

Aside from the opening words of this long paragraph, the main meaning is to seal Liang Xin as the crown prince, and at the same time give him a hundred taels of gold and the privilege of riding a horse in the palace.

Prince Shaobao is from the official position of the second rank, and the order of rank follows the higher ranks, but it is only a false title and does not have any real power.Not to mention the hundred taels of gold, Liang Xin intercepted a lot of gold, silver and jewelry during this expedition.Although he himself withheld a large part, the amount written in the memorial is not a small amount.As for walking around the palace on horseback, isn't that funny?Who would ride a horse through the streets of the palace?

The emperor's bestowal sounds very tempting, but in fact Liang Liang was not given any practical things.This made Liang Xin secretly scold Zhao Ji for being stingy in his heart.

Of course, no matter what Zhao Ji bestows, it is an honor to Liang Xin.He kowtowed to Xichang cavalry together and said: "Thank you Lord Long En."

Zhao Ji personally came over to help Liang Xin up, then waved his hand and said, "Everyone loves you."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The iron cavalry of Xichang got up neatly, Zhao Ji was a little surprised by the appearance of this elite soldier.Although he seldom pays attention to political affairs, he still has some understanding of his soldiers and horses.In his impression, except for the better frontier army, the soldiers and horses of the Song Dynasty can at most go to practice formations and play a few tricks.But it is the first time Zhao Ji has seen someone who can really exude a sturdy aura like the Xichang cavalry.

Zhao Ji nodded in satisfaction, and pulled Liang Xin back.All the courtiers received Zhao Ji's signal, and immediately saluted together and said in unison: "Congratulations to Hou Zhongyi for his triumphant return!"

How dare Liang Xin accept the salutes of so many courtiers confidently, and quickly replied: "My lords, you are polite."

Zhao Ji ignored Liang Xin and walked to Yang Jian's side.When Yang Jian saw Zhao Ji, his eyes were blurred with tears. He knelt down in front of Zhao Ji and sobbed, "Your Majesty, the old slave is back!"

Seeing Yang Jian's appearance, Zhao Ji was heartbroken.He stretched out his hand to support Yang Jian, patted Yang Jian's shoulder and said, "Yang Jian, you have suffered. Don't leave again when you come back this time."

"Thank you, Lord Long En!" Yang Jian didn't want to leave at all. The Governor of Yanjing Mansion sounds like a high-ranking and powerful shepherd guarding one side, but in fact it is a hard job.What's more, Yang Jian almost died in Jin Guo this time, so he is no longer willing to leave Bianjing.

Zhao Ji nodded, then turned around and nodded to the imperial servant.The Imperial Attendant called out: "Your Majesty, drive back to the palace and play music!"

The sound of playing music sounded, and the iron cavalry of Xichang walked forward slowly amidst the welcome of the people in Bianjing.Accepting the cheers and praise of the people, the Xichang iron cavalry finally felt a sense of glory of the ace army.

night.Night had just fallen.

Zhao Ji prepared a celebration banquet in the imperial garden of the palace. Lin Chong and Yin Jianglin went to the banquet with Liang Xin. Liang Rui's special status made it inconvenient for them to go together.In the middle of the banquet, Zhao Ji left first, and Gao Qiu came over with a wine glass dangling and said to Lin Chong, "Lin Chong, congratulations on your return from victory this time, and the Taiwei presents you a glass."

Although Lin Chong had a grudge against Gao Yanei, he had clear grievances and grievances. Gao Qiu once showed him the kindness of being promoted, so he always respected Gao Qiu in his heart.

Seeing Gao Qiu coming to offer a toast, Lin Chong hurriedly stood up and returned the salute, "Your Excellency, you are welcome, how dare you to toast as an adult in a lowly position."

Gao Qiu laughed and said, "You deserve it. Speaking of which, Lin Chong, you are also a talent I have always valued. I have always reserved the position of commander of the horse army for you."

Liang Xin raised his eyebrows, looked up at Gao Qiu and narrowed his eyes.This old dog actually poached my corner in front of me.The commander-in-chief of the Ma Junsi worships the fourth rank, and this bargaining chip is not insignificant.Although Lin Chong was in charge of the Xichang iron cavalry in Xichang, his official rank so far was only seventh rank.

certainly.It's not easy for Liang Xin to comment on such a matter, it all depends on Lin Chong's own choice.

After hearing Gao Qi's words, Lin Chong smiled awkwardly, and immediately replied: "Thank you for your love, but Lin Chong has little talent and ability, so I really don't know how to serve him. Lin Chong has no ambition, and he feels that he is already very good in Xichang .So thank you for your kindness.”

Although Lin Chong tried his best to be tactful with these words, in fact he had already directly rejected Gao Qi.But Gao Qiu didn't care, instead he nodded and said, "Since you think so, Lin Chong, then the Taiwei won't force you. Xichang Zhongyihou is also a capable person, study hard under him, and someday you want to change the environment The door to my Ma Junsi is always open for you."

Hearing this, Liang Xin's heart trembled.This old dog Gao Qiu is very good at this trick, he came to dig Lin Chong in front of his face.It would be best if he could be poached away, even if he couldn't be poached, it would still cause a rift between Liang Xin and Lin Chong.

Gao Lian drank the wine in his hand, then left with a faint smile, leaving Lin Chong with an embarrassed expression looking at Liang Xinzhan, either sitting or not.I want to explain, but I don't know what to say.

Yin Jianglin slapped the table, feeling very upset.But he also didn't know whether he should be angry with Gao Qiu or Lin Chong.

Liang Xin drank the wine in the glass, then raised the wine glass and said to Lin Chong and Yin Jianglin: "Lin Chong! Jiang Lin, the three of us fought side by side and went through life and death together. This friendship is comparable to all the gold and silver treasures in the world. Fame, fortune, and power are all precious. With so many adults witnessing today, I suggest that the three of us learn how to be the Three Kingdoms, Liu Guan, and Zhang Taoyuan. How about the three sworn brothers?"

"Sworn?" Both Yin Jianglin and Lin Chong were deeply surprised.

Yin Jianglin patted the table excitedly, stood up and said with a smile, "Okay! It's my old Yin Sansheng's luck to be sworn brothers with your lord."

Hearing what Yin Jianglin said, Lin Chong, who was still a little apprehensive, felt relieved.Lin Chong said excitedly: "Thanks to your lord's respect, then Lin Chong will be on top."

In the imperial garden, hundreds of flowers are in full bloom.

Liang Xin, Yinjiang Lin, and Lin Chong knelt under the bright moon. Starting from Liang Xin, the three said together: "The bright moon is above, and the thick soil is below. Today, I, Liang Xin (Yinjiang Lin, Lin Chong) formed a Brothers with different surnames, in the future, we will have the same blessings and enjoy the same hardships. We don’t want to be born in the same year, the same month, and the same day, but we hope to die in the same year, the same month, and the same day. If you break this oath, you will be punished by heaven and earth.”

After the oath was finished, the three of them cut their fingers and dripped blood into the wine bowls in front of them.The three of them drank a large bowl of wine in one gulp and broke the bowl.

Liang Xin was the youngest, so he saluted Lin Chong and Yin Jianglin first, "Big Brother, Second Brother."

Lin Chong and Yin Jianglin looked at each other and smiled, and they saluted each other.The former is called the second brother of the latter, and the latter is called the elder brother of the former.Then the two called Liang Xin the third brother together.

Such a change was unexpected for all courtiers.However, the three of them paid homage to the moon in the imperial garden, such a proud relationship can also be called a good story.Only Gao Qiu in the imperial garden had an unnatural expression on his face, and Liang Xin's behavior undoubtedly slapped him severely.

But is Liang Xin letting go of the person who provoked him so easily?The answer is naturally no.

Liang Xin walked up to Gao Lian, with a slight smile on his lips, and said: "Captain Gao. I have been busy before, so I haven't asked you to collect something. I believe you are ready for such a long time, and tomorrow I will Take the Xichang cavalry to collect your house."

"You..." Gao Qiu stopped immediately, the bet was verified by the emperor, and he didn't dare to lie.

Liang Xin smiled lightly and said, "I'll be here at dawn tomorrow, please get ready early, Mr. Gao."
