130. Chapter 130

Jinjiang Literature City welcomes you, although the God of Luo, is not able to see it, but you can still imagine the grand scene outside the city at this moment.

The sun is shining brightly in the sky, and the flags are covered with the sun. Tens of thousands of soldiers who have made great military achievements for the country are brightly armored. With the eyes of countless people, they are neatly arranged under the king's stage outside the city, accepting the view from the king.

Her father and brother and future husband are among them.

The God of Luo is proud of having such relatives.

Since the beginning of the morning, she has no intention of anything else and tried her best to suppress her impatient mood, hoping that her father and the others can step into the house soon.

From the outbreak of the war and the father left his home to governor Jiang Bei, it feels like it has been a long time since now.

The God of Luo misses them very much.

...

The rewards ended successfully.

Amid the shocking sound of the sacred deity of the troops behind him, the emperor set off and returned to the palace first.

Gao Qiao and the Gao family behind him are undoubtedly the most glorious family today.

The inferior gentry of overseas Chinese surnames and local gentry of the Three Wus in the capital were all proud to be able to say one or two words to him.

As for the people, they were even more excited. The ceremony ended and they were reluctant to disperse. But what they talked about the most was another person's name.

This name, because today's military reward ceremony spread rapidly throughout the world, almost everyone knew it.

This name is Li Mu.

It is said that he single-handedly entered the formation of the King of Linchuan and rescued a captured Gao family's son from the crowded siege of thousands of troops.

It is said that he defeated the Xia people's plan to attack Yiyang, led only two thousand defenders, fought bloody battles in Jiangguan, and blocked the tens of thousands of enemy troops' attacks until reinforcements arrived.

It was also him, the vanguard dared to die. In the battle in Jiangbei, he led his subordinates to win five battles and five victories, and he was invincible and made extraordinary achievements.

Today, after meeting with other heroes including the Lu family and Xu family headed by Gao, Emperor Xingping specially ordered him to go out of the list, named him the General of the Hu Ben, and gave him a golden beast robe without any concealing his appreciation for him.

This is true for all emperors, not to mention the people.

If this young man named Li Mu was born into aristocratic family, the people would only look up to him as they were used to.

It is precisely because he was born into a poor family and had no poor family in this top-grade and no genius, and decided everything with his own doors. It is a model of getting from the bottom to the glorious position today. Countless civilians seemed to see the hope of themselves and their descendants in him, and then they were excited and even worshipped.

At this moment, soldiers from the inner and outer layers gathered together, and there was a lot of water around him, laughter and joy kept coming.

When Yang Xuanxun came, he saw such a scene without interruption, and he just stood aside with a smile.

Li Mu soon saw Yang Xuan, lined up the crowd, walked quickly towards him, and greeted him.

Yang Xuan hurriedly held him up and said with a smile: "You are now also a general, and you have received the golden beast robe personally given by Your Majesty. The glory is beyond our ability. If you see me in the future, you don't have to be too polite."

The Emperor of Dayu gave his ministers two types of ward uniforms: civil servants, crane uniforms, and military generals and beast uniforms. The former represents stability, while the latter represents mightyness.

Before the court passed south, for the ministers, being able to obtain a gift of clothes was often regarded as the supreme glory. After the transit south, the imperial power was originally supported by the support of the gentry and was in a slump. The top gentry could almost be as noble as the royal family. Slowly, such glory may be just a icing on the cake for the gentry, but for people from poor families, being able to obtain a gift of clothes was still what they wanted.

Li Mu said: "I hope to be able to have today, and I rely on the general's support. The general should be my benefactor."

Seeing that he did not feel arrogant because of the glory he received today, Yang Xuan felt relieved and said with relief, "Xu Situ has admired you so much this time. He has mentioned it several times in front of me. Even if Your Majesty has not given you this reward, Situ will not treat you badly. With Situ and Gao Gong, you will have a bright future in the future. They are now in the camp. Please follow me and thank you. We will not return tonight without getting drunk!"

Li Mu did not raise his steps and looked towards the direction of the big tent where Xu Mi, Gao Qiao and others were in the distance. After a moment, he said, "General Yang, do you still remember that Mr. Gao once promised that no matter what I asked for, he would definitely respond to my affairs?"

Yang Xuan laughed: "Of course! My husband promised that he made a sound. It was not just me, Yang Xuan, who heard it, but many people heard it!"

After he finished speaking, he looked at Li Mu and smiled and said, "What, have you thought of what you want? Just right, Mr. Gao is here, so you can take this opportunity to propose it. I think no matter what you want, Mr. Gong will agree to you."

Li Mu said: "I am afraid I need to borrow the power of the general in this matter."

"What's the matter? You actually want me to help you?"

Yang Xuan was a little surprised, then smiled again: "Just say it! Anyway I can do it, I will respond to everything."

He patted his chest, making a bold move.

"Thank you, General Yang."

Li Mu smiled.

"What I ask for is the daughter of Mr. Gao. I wonder if General Yang is willing to help me?"

Yang Xuan had a smile on his face at first, and suddenly his smile stopped, hesitated, looked at Li Mu, with a little uncertainty in his tone: "Jingchen, what are you talking about just now? The daughter of Gao Gong?"

"Gao Hunter's daughter? Do you want to marry her?"

He paused for a moment, and repeated it in an emphatic tone.

"That's right. Whatever I want is to marry Gao Gong's daughter."

Li Mu replied.

"You...how did you have such an idea? Could it be that you are joking with me?"

Yang Xuan hesitated for a moment and asked again, his tone full of confusion.

"I want to marry the daughter of Gao Gong." Li Mu only said this again.

"If the general can present what he wants to Gao Gong on my behalf, Li Mu is very grateful!"

Yang Xuan stared at Li Mu with a normal expression, his eyes widened wider and even his bearded face could not cover up his extremely shocked look at this moment.

His face suddenly changed, he looked around and said, "Come with me!" He turned around and hurriedly walked into his barracks.

When Li Mu followed in, Yang Xuan called two personal soldiers and ordered them to guard the camp gate from afar and not allow others to approach, so he turned around.

"Respectful minister, are you confused? How could you have such a ridiculous thought? Who is Gao? Who are we? You should know that the gentry is in power now. With the hope of Gao, my husband will thank you for saving his nephew and will never marry his daughter to you. Follow my advice, you should give up this idea as soon as possible. Never see evil in Gao Gong and bring shame to yourself!"

His expression was solemn and his tone was extremely serious.

Li Mu remained motionless and smiled, "Thank you for your suggestions. Just asking for marriage to Mr. Gao's daughter is my only long-cherished wish in my life. Mr. Gao promised me that day that he could ask what I thought, but now he is overestimating his abilities, and I will try it."

Yang Xuan kept shook his head: "Respectful minister, you were promoted to the General of the Hu Ben General in your old age. Looking at the court, who can do this? With your ability, your future will definitely be far better than me. Moreover, today, even Your Majesty values ​​you so much, so you don't have to be so impatient! Even Mr. Gao made a promise to you in public that day, but it was just his casual words for a while. It's easy to say anything else, but he will definitely not agree to this matter. But why did you take it as the truth?"

Li Mu said: "My wish to marry Gao Gong's daughter has been around for a long time. Since I have the opportunity, how could I give up if I don't try it? If the general feels in a dilemma, the last general dare not force it. The last general will take his leave first."

He gave Yang Xuan a thank you ceremony and then turned around and wanted to leave.

Without dispelling the absurd idea of ​​being a beloved general, how could Yang Xuan let him go? He immediately took a step forward and blocked Li Mu's way.

"Respect the minister! A beautiful lady, a gentleman is a good match. I understand! But I heard that Gao and Lu have always had marriages with each other. The two families have long wanted to marry each other. Now they must have discussed marriages. How could the Gao family abandon Lu and marry their daughter to you at this time? Besides, do you know that the separation of scholars and commoners is far from what you can imagine? Those who regard themselves as noble people are reluctant to marry each other, let alone intermarriage? Even if ordinary scholars and commoners intermarriages occasionally intermarriage, the relatives and friends of the gentry are also ashamed of and refuse to interact with each other since then. How could the noble family of Gao fall into their own identity?"

Yang Xuan advised his beloved generals, but he was also induced to resent the long-standing resentment in his heart, and said angrily: "Our ancestors have great achievements, how can we be worse than them? Nowadays, many of the gentry's children are even more incompetent, but they borrowed the difficulty of the court's transit south. The ancestors took credit for their contributions and relyed on the honor of family members to overtake us. They regard people as ants, cattle and horses for their own use. How could they take us seriously?"

He gritted his teeth, took a long breath, calmed down his surging emotions, and said earnestly: "Jingchen, listen to me, don't take the words of Gao Gong that day seriously! Dispel this idea so as not to fail to propose marriage and be humiliated!"

When he persuaded him, Li Mu kept listening silently, waiting for him to finish his words, saying, "General, every word is out of love, Li Mu is grateful, and he will never forget it. But General, you also know that I am a naughty person and have obsession in my heart. If I don't try it, I will be unwilling to accept it. Thank you, General, I will say goodbye!"

Yang Xuan knew that he had not given up his thoughts, and sighed helplessly: "Forget it, since you begged me like this, how can I turn a blind eye? But you must know that Mr. Gao may not care about your abruptness and are willing to hide it for you. There is no airtight wall in the world. It would be fine if you were rejected for your proposal, but you will inevitably be known and ridiculed in the future. Besides, Situ may also suspect that you will cling to Mr. Gao for fear of being unhappy..."

Li Mu smiled slightly: "The general's concerns are not unreasonable. Therefore, please ask the general, so you can tell Situ about this matter first. If Situ also thinks it is inappropriate, I will dispel this thought and not mention a single sentence. How about it?"
