The boss of the end of the world travels through ancient times to pamper his little husband

Chapter 189 The Emperor Offers a Generous Reward to Send Li Shao to Fight

Before Ye Deyuan and Luo Shichao entered the palace, they first went to the farm where Jing Xiangyan was hiding and obtained many secret letters between him and local rebels as well as some court officials. After reading them, both of them broke out in cold sweats, thinking that many people would be in trouble now.

However, these traitors are really hateful. The current emperor is a wise ruler, and they receive salaries from the court, yet they dare to secretly collude with rebels like the Fourth Prince.

After entering the palace, the two men presented the secret letter in their hands, arrested Li Shao and Jing Xiangyan, and sent him to the Dali Temple.

Tell them where Jing Xiangyan is hiding so that they can report everything about their search for evidence to Jing Xiangting without missing a single detail.

Jing Xiangting was both overjoyed and furious after hearing this. He was happy because Jing Xiangyan had been on the run and causing chaos for many years, which had been a big concern for him, and now he had finally fallen into his hands.

He immediately ordered his personal guard to lead a team to secretly transfer Jing Xiangyan to the Heavenly Prison. He wanted to slowly deal with this "good brother" of his.

What made him angry was that so many people in the court were involved with the rebels, so he directly ordered the secret guards to take over the farm where Jing Xiangyan was hiding, continue to search carefully, and then start a thorough investigation of the people mentioned in the secret letter.

All those who believed in the Master and those who were involved with them and had the same intention of rebellion were not spared and were directly sentenced to be beheaded in the Meridian Gate as a warning to all.

Afterwards, for a long period of time from the beginning to the end of the investigation, the entire court seemed to be shrouded in blood, and the bloodstains on the ground in front of the Meridian Gate did not fade for a long time.

I don’t know if it’s because of the comparison with those traitors, many of whom have low abilities, and Jing Xiangyan was wandering right under their noses, but they didn’t catch that group of idiots. In Jing Xiangting’s eyes, they can be slightly forgiven. Although they are a little stupid, they are sincere.

It was just a minor punishment, a demotion, a fine, and a severe scolding, nothing else.

Let a group of frightened officials praise the emperor for his benevolence, and they will surely be more loyal and devoted to repay the emperor's kindness in the future.

Those who should be punished were punished, and those who should be rewarded should naturally be rewarded. Jing Xiangting summoned Li Shao alone.

Ever since he took part in the martial arts examination, Jing Xiangting had admired him very much. Later, after he joined the Shenwu Guard, Li Shao showed his skills even more. No matter how vicious the bandits and rebels were, they were no match for him.

Jing Xiangting thought that he was really young and wanted to let him stay in the fourth-rank official position for a few years before promoting him.

Unexpectedly, he actually proposed to resign, and only after the king of a country repeatedly persuaded him to stay did Li Shao reluctantly stay.

To be honest, the look of him not caring about fame or fortune and just wanting to spend a leisurely life with his wife and children really pissed Jing Xiangting off.

When the enemy attacked the border this time, the first person he thought of to send to the border as the main general to repel the enemy was Li Shao.

However, he thought that if he re-employed Li Shao not long after he was transferred to a sinecure, wouldn't it make him seem that there was no more capable general in Jing State besides Li Shao? So he could only give up.

It's just that the war was not going well, Jing Xiangting had already regretted it. As a qualified monarch, it was common for him to be respectful to the wise and humble. So what if he re-employed Li Shao? !

He had been planning to summon Li Shao to the palace in the near future for a heart-to-heart talk. He did not expect that Li Shao would give him such a big surprise. He could not help but sigh that in such a big country like Jing, there was really no one who could compare to Li Shao. He admired Li Shao even more because he could share his worries.

He Li Shao sincerely stated that Jing State needed him and the people of Jing State needed him, and that in a few days he would be ordered to send him to the border to fight, and promised him all kinds of wealth and glory after his return from victory.

In fact, Li Shao was mentally prepared that Jing Xiangting would send him to the border sooner or later, so he agreed immediately and only said that he would need a few days to say goodbye to his wife and children at home.

Jing Xiangting was used to the fact that he always missed his wife and children at home. At the same time, because of Li Shao's characteristics, he felt more at ease with him and said with a smile that he would give him some time.

Later, he rewarded Li Shao with a thousand taels of gold, silk, brocade, jewels and jade as a reward for his capture of Jing Xiangyan.

At this time, Li Shao was worried about how to tell Ye Ge'er when he got home. Only when Jingguo regained peace as soon as possible could their lives be peaceful forever. He hoped that Ye Ge'er could understand him. Alas!

……

When Li Shao returned home, the gold, jewelry and cloth bestowed by the emperor had already been delivered to his home, and there were many boxes of different sizes placed in the yard.

Seeing Li Shao coming back, Zhao Ye stepped forward, put his arm around Li Shao, and said happily: "Sir, someone from the palace just sent a lot of gold, jewelry, and silk, saying that you have been rewarded by the emperor for your meritorious service in catching the rebels!"

"My husband, could that rebel be the man you tied up and handed over to the Dali Temple the day we went to the Peony Garden?"

Li Shao smiled and rubbed his head, "Our Ye brother is really smart, it's him."

Zhao Ye exclaimed in admiration: "Oh my god! What kind of rebel is this? The emperor can give so many rewards?! My husband, you are so awesome!"

"Hahaha! That's right, I just found out how powerful your husband is." As she said this, she pinched Zhao Ye's chin with her hand and teased him.

Just as the two of them were being affectionate, Shen An held a book in his hand and said respectfully, "Master, husband, all the treasures bestowed by the emperor have been counted and registered. Please take a look."

Li Shao took the booklet and glanced at it casually, then handed it to Zhao Ye, "Okay, move all these things into the warehouse and put them into storage."

"Also, Shen An, everyone in the family will receive an extra monthly salary this month. I've made some money, so I want you to share in the goodness."

"Thank you, master! Thank you, husband! I'd like to thank you, master and husband for the reward on behalf of everyone!" Everyone was happy to get more monthly wages, and Shen Anxi thanked them with a big smile.

The servants who heard the noise were so happy that they put down the things in their hands and hurriedly bowed to thank the two men.

Then Li Shao hugged Zhao Ye and walked towards the room, wondering how to tell Ye Ge'er.

Zhao Ye nestled in Li Shao's arms, thinking about so much gold, her eyes narrowed with laughter, "Husband, husband, I want to buy a few ruby ​​necklaces, okay?"

"Of course, if you want to buy it, just buy it. Why are you asking me?"

"I just bought it a few days ago. Why am I buying it again? Are you afraid you will say I am a spendthrift?"

"You really can wrongly accuse me. I have never said anything like that!" Li Shao couldn't help but pinch the face of this little guy who "wronged" him.

Zhao Ye, whose cheek was pinched, was not annoyed, and said with a smile: "You say no, but who knows if you have it in your heart."

In fact, Zhao Ye knew that Li Shao certainly didn't have that feeling in his heart, but he just couldn't help but tease him. He wanted to hear Li Shao say that he loved him and that he liked giving him money to spend.

"You little brat, I'm almost showing you my heart. Even if you spend all our savings, I don't mind. Just earn more. Material possessions are nothing."

"Haha, my husband is so generous!"

"That is!"

"By the way, my generous husband has something he wants to discuss with you."

At this time, the two of them had already sat down at the table. Zhao Ye took a sip of the rock sugar lotus seed soup that the maid had just brought, and asked casually, "What's the big deal? You're still talking about discussing it?"

Li Shao originally intended to speak directly, but he was always decisive, and he was a little speechless in front of Zhao Ye, so he decided to be roundabout, "Brother Ye, you also know that Jingguo is now at war with the other two countries, and the lost cities have not been recaptured. The people at the border are suffering..."

Before he could finish his words, Zhao Ye stopped drinking the lotus seed soup and didn't say anything. She just stared at him and cried.

Li Shao was so distressed by his pitiful appearance that he hugged him in his arms and gently wiped his tears with his hands, "What's wrong? Why are you crying all of a sudden?"

In fact, he knew in his heart that Ye Ge'er guessed what he really wanted to say next after hearing what he said.

As expected, Zhao Ye directly pointed out, "Husband, you don't need to beat around the bush with me. What you want to say is, you are going to the border to fight, right?! The people at the border are very pitiful, I know, but, but I am very selfish and don't want you to go. I know you are very powerful, very powerful, there will be no one more powerful than you, but no matter how powerful a person is... woo woo woo..."

Zhao Ye didn't say anything else, but just snuggled in Li Shao's arms and sobbed softly.

Li Shao caressed his back with heartache and comforted him: "Brother Ye, there is no but. You have to believe me. Believe that your husband is the most powerful person in the world. I will come back safely."

"And I'm not just thinking about the people at the border. If we allow the other two countries to attack Jing, whether Jing loses and has to cede territory and pay compensation, or Jing wins, the tug-of-war will cause great losses to the people and property, and will make the entire Jing become unstable. I hope you and the children can live in a safe and peaceful environment."

Seeing that Zhao Ye in his arms still didn't speak, Li Shao hugged him tighter and sighed, "Brother Ye, if you really don't want me to go, I..."

Before she finished speaking, Zhao Ye suddenly broke free from Li Shao's embrace, wiped her tears vigorously, stared at him with a pair of red eyes, and looked at him seriously, "Husband, you must come back, come back safe and sound! The children and I are waiting for you at home. If you don't come back, I will, I will remarry with the children!"

Li Shao was quite moved by the first half of the sentence, but not by the second half. He reached out and pinched Zhao Ye's red face, "What do you mean by remarrying? How dare you! I won't let you have this chance."

Zhao Ye did not struggle to break free from the hand that was pinching her cheek. Instead, she held Li Shao's big hand with her small hand, put her face in his palm, and said seriously: "Husband, we agreed that you must not give me this opportunity."

At this moment, Li Shao felt very touched and hugged Zhao Ye into his arms again, "Of course, little idiot, you can only be mine, how could I give you to someone else."
