Jiankang, Imperial City.

Before dawn, groups of ministers gathered in the Golden Palace one after another.

It has been six years since Xiao Yan ascended the throne and is about to usher in his seventh year. During these six years, although he believed in Buddhism and his temperament had changed in the eyes of many ministers, his diligence has remained unchanged. He went on a morning court every day, and even if he went to attend morning classes in some temples, he would definitely wait for the morning court after it.

This is how it is, and for the golden armored guards outside the Golden Palace, they are naturally accustomed to it and have no new ideas. However, today, these soldiers standing solemnly outside the Golden Palace have a look a little different from the past. Many people can't help but stretch their ears to hear clearly what the emperor said on the dragon throne inside.

News of the Zhongli victory has spread throughout Jiankang. From last night to now, the small courtyard where Lin Yi lived before has almost been trampled. The inconspicuous shabby courtyard has now become a top-notch scenic spot in Jiankang.

If we talk about Zhongli's victory, the final decision was of course General Wei Rui's flooding Northern Wei army, but if Lin Yi had not defended the city before, if more than 100,000 Northern Wei troops attacked the city, Zhongli City would have fallen completely into the hands of the Northern Wei army. The Northern Wei army on the north bank of the Huai River must have crossed the river and deployed defenses with Zhongli City as the center. If the battle situation in Zhongli City was not very tragic, even the northern wall would be ruined... If the northern wall was intact and the Northern Wei people plundered so many ships and docked on the northern wall, Wei Rui would probably have no use in the water attack. The outcome is still unknown.

What's more, what army is the Tie Ce Army?

These are not considered regular elite border troops at all.

What a merit to commanding such a three thousand army, blocking more than 100,000 elite Northern Wei army, and even the commander Xi Ruyu of the Northern Wei Dynasty was killed?

These Golden Armored Guards, who were arranged outside the Golden Palace during the morning dynasty, were all from the Yongzhou Army. They were carefully selected from the Yongzhou Army and were considered as direct descendants among the direct descendants. They were all experienced in many battles, but the more they experienced in many battles, the more they knew that this was simply unimaginable.

Although Lin Yi was also very glorious after Meishan, in their eyes, he was just a young man with a stinky and unfilthy young man. However, after the battle of Zhongli, no one dared to think so again.

Lin Yi's battle not only defeated Xi Ruyu's army of the Northern Wei Dynasty and Yang Dian's White Bone Army, but also defeated everyone in their Yongzhou army.

It's very simple. These golden armored guards are very clear. Whether it is the Yongzhou army when they left Yongzhou or the Zhongzhou army after they expanded their military strength at this time, whether it is the Yongzhou army or any general of the Zhongzhou army now, let alone bringing thousands of troops, even if they lead 30,000 troops, they will probably not be able to defend Zhongli at will.

At today's court meeting, the emperor must reward Lin Yi.

Now they and everyone in Jiankang City are curious about what kind of reward the emperor would give Lin Yi.

The more curious and expectant you are, the more itchy you feel, and the more you feel that the court meeting that doesn't seem to be long is particularly long.

After finally waiting for the court meeting to finally end, the ministers all came out one after another. When a commander of the Golden Armored Guard escorted these adults to the carriage outside the palace gate, he couldn't help but ask a gentle official who was most familiar to him, "Sir, what is General Lin in the palace today?"

He asked simply, but the official naturally knew what it meant. The official had expressionless expression, his lips moved slightly, and he didn't even seem to be talking, but his voice was faintly and clearly heard from the commander of the Golden Armored Guard. "Give 11th squad, the general of Shenwei Town West. Jiankang's fertile land was 100 acres, and Lin Wangbei's house was returned. Lin Wangbei's previous residence was allowed to return home and Jiankang's elderly care."

"Class 11?"

The commander of the Golden Armored Guard trembled all over, as if he was struck by lightning.

He was shocked and inexplicably took it for granted. If it were Xi Ruyu or Yang Dian, their generals in the Northern Wei Dynasty were calculated based on the titles of the Southern Dynasties, their official positions were probably at least equivalent to those of the fifteenth ranks of officials in the Southern Dynasties.

Lin Yi killed Xi Ruyu, leaving Xi Ruyu's army helpless. It is no exaggeration to reward Lin Yi's 11 generals with this alone.

However, based on Lin Yi's previous Tie Ce military officer position, this has been promoted in an unknown number of levels at once.

Originally, during the private discussions between him and many Zhongzhou generals, they speculated that the generals of Class 9 might be there, which was amazing enough. Unexpectedly, they would be generals of Class 11.

In this way, based on this general position, the entire Southern Dynasty military had higher official rank than Lin Yi, and there were only a total of more than twenty left.

This is really not flying, but it soars into the sky.

But in addition to being shocked, the commander of the Golden Armored Guard came to his senses and realized the word "Zhenxi".

"Not the north, but the west?"

He was stunned for a moment and asked again subconsciously.

"Go and teach the mantra of Dangxiang." The official did not dare to say much in the palace, for fear of being circulated, so he replied in an extremely simple and soft voice.

The commander of the Golden Armored Guard was not a stupid person either. He calmed down and stopped talking. His eyes flashed, and he immediately realized the meaning.

...

"Class 11 Generals? What a great official?"

"That's an official who is as big as the Chief Censor and the General of the Censor. The Master of the Shaofu seems to be in the 11th Class."

"What is the official position of Tong Gujun?"

"That's the general of Class 15."

"What, does that mean that after General Lin Yi is promoted, he is still four ranks younger than Tong Gujun?"

"Then you can't surpass Tong Gujun at once. Tong Gujun was the number one powerful general under the command of the emperor back then. He led his army to break open the palace gates of Jiankang Palace back then."

"Anyway, he is still young, so the emperor probably wants him to experience it for a few more years."

"It's really the Huzi of the Jiangmen..."

In less than half an hour, the entire Jiankang City was already talking about the rewards of today's court meetings.

Most ordinary people actually don’t have much idea about this general position. Even if they are a group of officials, they are already quite large positions, but no matter what, the entire Jiankang City is extremely lively.

The whole city was talking about a person. The last time it was when the current emperor Xiao Yan changed his war and led his troops to approach Jiankang City.

...

While talking about Lin Yi all over the city, a monk was sailing on the water in a small boat, half a day away from Jiankang City.

The monk was wearing a hat and holding a copper bowl in his hand. The edges of the monk's robe had been worn out.

His skin was dark and his hands and feet were dry.

In the eyes of the boatman, this monk is an ordinary monk from the side.

After all, monks from the poor places in Jiankang City should be able to live better than before when they came to Jiankang City.
