On the eighth day of the first lunar month, Duke Su and other military generals who returned from suppressing the bandits were rewarded one by one.

In addition, Princess Changle was promoted to the rank of sixth-rank Zhaowu Colonel, and the eldest lady of the Yuan family was promoted to the rank of sixth-rank Zhaowu Deputy Colonel.

This move once again conveyed the Tang Emperor's strong support for women joining the army.

It is indeed good news for women all over the world.

The owner of Zhengdaofang, Yuan Yuan, was promoted to the rank of first-rank Taiwei and participated in deciding the military affairs of the Tang army.

It was claimed that this was due to the achievement of raising military funds, but in fact it was because gunpowder played a great role in the Northern Expedition.

In addition to the shipbuilding drawing that Yuan Yuan had drawn with Ying Zheng before, the system made a copy and handed it to Li Shimin early in the morning.

Nowadays, the warships and merchant ships of the Tang Dynasty are being manufactured in full swing.

Li Shimin always remembered that in his dream, Emperor Chengzu Zhu Di of the Ming Dynasty sent people to the West, which not only demonstrated the country's prestige to the outside world, but also greatly promoted the development of the country.

He gave the vacant position of Grand Marshal to the little boy, expressing his appreciation and trust in the little guy.

Official Yuan Yuan expressed her satisfaction. She had made it clear that the first rank was the highest official position.

In their family, no one has a higher position than her!!!

When she returned to Yuan Mansion in the afternoon, Old Madam Ye saw her little granddaughter walking home with her hands behind her back and a serious face.

She was a little puzzled: "Why did you come back so early today?"

Normally, he doesn't go home until the end of his shift.

Yuan Yuan raised her head slightly, and her round little chin outlined a proud arc.

"Sister Xiaolian, quickly bring a hamburger to Captain Yuanyuan!!!"

Madam Ye: “…”

Okay, okay, now I’m back home to show off my power.

She picked up the feather duster, and the kid's face changed drastically and he ran away.

When Minister Yuan returned home, he saw the newly appointed young commander standing by the wall as punishment, looking aggrieved.

Good old man felt amused and walked over to stuff a Hu pancake into the little guy's mouth.

"How did you make your grandma angry again?"

Yuan Yuan took a bite of the hot Hu pancake and sighed sadly:

"Da Zhuang, there is no longer any room for General Yuan Yuan in this family!"

"I'm about to run away from home!"

Before the good old man could say anything, the young man Yuan Bing, who had just returned from school, came running over like a gust of wind.

He hugged Yuan Yuan and took a big bite of the Hu pancake in her hand.

"It's delicious, Second Sister, let's go and be Wei Aweng's sons together!!!"

Yuan Yuan looked at the half-missing Hu Bing in his hand, and then looked at his brother Bingbing.

She silently thought to herself that she was a high-ranking official now and had enough salary to buy Hu bing.

Don’t be stingy!

She quickly ate the rest of the Hu pancake, then declared firmly:

"I'm going to my second brother's house and running away from home!"

At this time, Madam Ye’s powerful roar came from the dining room: “It’s time to eat!!!”

The two little kids looked at each other and rushed to the dining room.

"Grandma, I want to eat a hamburger!!!"

“I want pizza!!!”

Minister Yuan followed behind and saw the two children pushing and bumping into each other, tripping each other as they ran towards the dining hall.

He smiled and shook his head.

When we arrived at the dining hall, the little kid who had just said he wanted to run away from home was already hugging his grandmother and saying sweet words to her.

"I love grandma the most, no one else can compare to her!"

Madam Ye poked her little head and said, "Are you still disrespectful enough to call grandma by her name?"

Yuan Yuan's eyes rolled around, and soon, she said unconvincedly: "Uncle He Fan said that only people who are close to you should be called by nicknames!"

She pointed at herself with her little hand: "Yuanyuan."

Then he pointed at Minister Yuan who had just entered the dining hall and said, "Da Zhuang!"

Then he looked at Yuan Dalang, who had a gentle expression on the table: "Shuanzhu!"

Then he pointed at Yuan Erlang, who looked exhausted: "Tiger head!"

The little head turned around and saw Yuan Qing eating watermelon, and called her loudly: "Daya!"

Yuan Qing: “!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

Yuan family: "..."

Madam Yuan Da and Madam Yuan Er were standing outside the door with meals in their hands. They looked frightened and didn't dare to go in.

Old Madam Ye raised her hands to cover her eyes, her face looking sad.

***

The 20th day of the first lunar month, Chang'an, Tang Dynasty.

On Zhuque Street, people lined the streets to welcome the Northern Expedition Army back home.

Li Shimin personally led hundreds of officials outside Chengtian Gate to reward and commend the military generals who had made meritorious services.

Yuchi Jingde and Qin Shubao came back together from this trip. They looked at their sworn brother who was standing in the front row among the officials.

The little boy stood obediently beside Cheng Yaojin. Both the big and the small had serious expressions and did not move.

It really doesn't fit the kid's personality.

If it were the case in the past, my little brother would have come running over by now!

Yuchi Jingde winked at the kid secretly, but the other party remained unmoved.

Qin Shubao took out a candy from his sleeve pocket that he had brought for his little brother and shot it at Cheng Yaojin with his internal energy.

Cheng Yaojin didn't move, allowing the candies to hit the armor on his chest and bounce onto the ground.

Qin Shubao and Yuchi Jingde looked at each other, both with confusion in their eyes.

Zhang Ananda was reading out the imperial edict, and Li Shimin, who was standing in the main seat, could see every little move of Yuchi Jingde and the others clearly.

He stroked his beard complacently.

In order to prevent the kid from causing trouble at today's event, he racked his brains to come up with this idea.

After the reward ceremony, Li Shimin asked the soldiers to go back and rest, and held a banquet in the palace in the evening to celebrate the victory.

He took all the officials back to the palace.

Yuchi Jingde quickly ran to his little brother and said, "Yuan Baoer, Grandpa brought you a birthday gift!"

He took out a small wooden box and waved it in front of the kid.

Yuan Yuan's eyes rolled around, but she remained motionless.

Qin Shubao walked up to Cheng Yaojin and asked in a low voice, "What happened? Did His Majesty punish you two to stand?"

Cheng Yaojin winked at Qin Shubao, but Qin Shubao said he didn't understand.

At this time, a young man's voice came from behind: "One, two, three, wooden man."

The kid immediately sat down on the ground: "Hey, playing games is really tiring!"

Yuchi Jingde and Qin Shubao: "..."

The two looked at Cheng Yaojin with indescribable expressions.

It's fine for a kid to play games, but why is this old man playing it so seriously? !

Cheng Yaojin looked aggrieved: "Your Majesty said that if I lose, I will be sent to guard the border."

Yuan Yuan got up from the ground and ran around the few people happily.

"Wow, wow, the brothers are back!"

"We can eat lamb together again!!!"

Cheng Yaojin looked embarrassed: "Now the treasury is empty, can we afford to eat sheep?"

He returned to Chang'an a few days ago, and has recently been working with the young general to raise military funds.

After this little guy got promoted, he set an example by himself and even stopped buying Hu bing.

General Yuan Yuan stopped, covered his chubby face with his hands, and his eyes were filled with grief.

"Then we can't eat sheep!"

"We, the high officials, cannot spend money recklessly!!!"

The four brothers fell into deep thought.

At this time, the voice of the eunuch came from the side:

"The Holy Saint has ordered that King Zhao should go to Liangyi Palace to meet the Emperor immediately after a short rest."

King Zhao, who had been ignored, nodded, thinking that there was nothing to rest for, and was about to follow the eunuch into the palace.

But then I saw the three big ones and one small one all looked over.

Yuchi Jingde came over with a laugh and put his arm around King Zhao’s shoulders:

"Don't worry, the saint said that the king should rest for a while. Let's go to the Sifang Building to rest."

Yuan Yuan nodded fiercely: "Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, the Sifang Building can all rest!!!"

She grabbed King Zhao's other hand and pulled him towards where the carriage was parked.

Zhao Wang, the unfortunate victim, was restrained by a large and a small man and could only leave with them.
