In the palace of Eqin and Eniang.
Wu Nian spread his arms and stood tall, letting Eqin and Eniang help him put on clothes and accessories.
Talk about it. His Fuhan General's Mansion was a grass-roots team. So far, there are official positions but no ranks, and no uniforms for officials at all levels.
As a general, of course he doesn't have an official uniform.
Because he is noble and noble, he usually wears a purple robe or a python robe.
Lu Sheng selected the Six Heavenly Kings, and the list was confirmed by him. Today he will formally appoint the Six Heavenly Kings in the palace.
So he specially wore a purple gold python robe, a gold crown on his head, and a round jade pendant hanging around his waist.
After Eqin and Eniang helped him put it on, Wu Nian came to the bronze mirror to look at his own image, shook his head and said: "It looks good, but it does not match the status of a king of a country."
"When I come back from pacifying Li Jinzhu, I will have to refer to the official court uniforms of Chu State and formulate various costumes and etiquette. Otherwise, I will always be a grassroots team member. Well. I should consult professionals in this regard."
The figure of Cui Wushuang appeared in Wu Nian's mind. This person was very suitable for this matter.
Eqin and Eniang didn't speak. Li Jinzhu's beautiful face appeared in their minds, and they couldn't help but worry secretly.
Although they are now attached to Wu Nian, their old love for Li Jinzhu, who raised them, is unforgettable.
And they also clearly understood that Li Jinzhu must be destroyed by Wu Nian.
The Queen Mother is definitely no match for the Liaodong Tigers.
"If the empress is killed by the general, then we will collect her body. If the empress is captured alive by the general, then we will intercede for her."
The two sisters looked at each other, understanding each other.
Wu Nian put away the distracting thoughts in his heart and walked out of the palace with his head held high. Surrounded by Zhang Zhen, Lu Yanxun and other soldiers, he left the harem and arrived at a side hall of the front palace.
After arriving and sitting on the throne, Wu Nian raised his head with a majestic look and said in a strong voice: "Summon Lu Liuliang, Zhuge Xun, Zhang Cai, Li Liangchen, Dai Quanzhong, and Zhang Dianchu."
"Yes." Zhang Zhen bowed in response, turned around and went down. Shortly after. He was originally from Goguryeo and had military experience before. One of the sixty thousand households, the Six Heavenly Kings stood out due to their military exploits. Wearing blue narrow-sleeved brocade robes, they lined up in two rows and walked in with their heads lowered.
"Meet the General."
The six people saluted in unison.
Wu Nian glanced at the six people with majestic eyes, showing a look of satisfaction. These people are young, vigorous, and powerful in figure, showing an imposing aura. You can tell at a glance that they are not ordinary.
"No courtesy." Wu Nian said.
"Thank you, General." The six of them straightened their chests and backs, but lowered their heads slightly and did not dare to look directly at Wu Nian.
"I made an agreement with the sixty of you before. You should know what it means to summon you here today."
"This time you have made great contributions to countering the rebellion and resisting the Fuso Navy. Therefore, I officially appoint you as captains. The people of sixty thousand households were unified into sixty thousand households. The navy is still stationed along the coast, and the army is stationed separately. Four directions.”
"I hope you will do your best in the future and continue to help me stabilize Goguryeo. Of course. If anyone dares to slack off, I can either appoint you or remove you."
Wu Nian has a majestic face and a stern voice. He is sitting on the throne with full majesty.
The six people were both happy and awe-struck, and they responded loudly: "Yes."
Give me a stick first, then a sweet date. Wu Nian stood up with a smile and said: "Your official position is to be a school captain, not to guard ten thousand households. I think you all understand why."
"There are currently eleven captains in Goguryeo. Except for the four navy and navy captains who are confronting Li Jinzhu in the Han River, the other seven are in the capital, plus Lu Sheng, the chief officer of Beppu. I will hold a banquet in the main hall. Celebrating you. Come with me."
With that said, Wu Nian stepped down from the throne and walked towards the gate surrounded by Zhang Zhen and others.
Lu Liuliang and the other six people followed closely behind with happy faces.
Of course they know what this means.
The general put them in the same position as the Han people. No. The Han people are Han people, and the Goguryeo people are also Han people.
They are all Han Chinese.
Come to the main hall.
Wang Gui, Zhang Sheng, Lu Sheng and other eight people were already seated, and the cold dishes were served. After Wu Nian and others came in, they all greeted each other and then sat down.
Personal soldiers brought hot dishes and placed them on everyone's desk one by one.
Wu Nian picked up the wine glass and said to everyone: "Today, I would like to congratulate the six captains. You will not return until you are drunk."
"yes."
The civil and military officials responded loudly, and Lu Liuliang and others' faces were glowing.
It’s really a banquet where you won’t come home until you’re drunk. Wu Nian was in a daze and somehow returned to Eqin and Eniang's bedroom. When he woke up, it was already noon the next day.
He was very drunk and felt depressed that day.
It was back to normal on the third day.
Wu Nian once again summoned the Six Heavenly Kings and asked them to leave the capital and go to their respective stations.
These six heavenly kings seemed to be the magic needle that stabilized the sea, helping Wu Nian stabilize the northern half of Goguryeo.
Then it’s New Year’s Eve.
This is the thirteenth year since Wu Nian came to this world. His family members are all in Jiang County, but his life this year was not deserted.
Eqin and Eniang were by his side.
There were also civil and military ministers such as Lu Sheng, Cheng Ruixiang, Wang Gui, Zhang Sheng, etc. who came to the palace to celebrate the New Year.
But Wu Nian still missed home and Liu Xiang.
New Year's Day.
It's snowing heavily. The majestic palace is covered in silver.
In the imperial garden, in the pavilion.
Wu Nian wore thick winter clothes, cooked wine with Eqin and Eniang and watched the snow.
Eqin and Eniang wrapped themselves up like rice dumplings, but they still felt very cold. They wished they could go back to the palace immediately and enjoy the warmth brought by the charcoal stove.
But they didn't dare to leave Wu Nian alone. After the wine was cooked, the two sisters filled it for Wu Nian first, then quickly picked up the wine glass and drank the hot wine.
Then, their whole bodies became warm, and their young faces were also delicate and charming, a little more charming than usual.
"Don't be greedy. Don't get drunk. You need me to carry you back." Wu Nian laughed when he saw it, then he also picked up the wine glass and drank the hot wine.
"General, don't look down on us. Just this wine. We can eat half a catty." E Niang was usually lively, but after drinking the wine, she became much bolder, and the wine smelled of alcohol.
Eqin quickly pulled Eniang's sleeve. E Niang reacted, hurriedly spat out her sweet tongue, lowered her head and pretended to be well-behaved.
"Hahahaha." Wu Nian laughed loudly, and the laughter spread far in the snow.
Amidst the heavy snowfall, Wu Nian and his beloved concubine spent a peaceful and peaceful New Year.
The eighth day of the first lunar month.
Wu Nian left two captains, Jin Han and Huang Hu, to guard the base camp in the capital. In order to handle all affairs in President Lu Sheng's rear, he led five captains, including Wang Gui, Zhang Sheng, Zhao Yanting, Tieniu and Long Qie, out of the capital and headed south with swords. Refers to half of Goguryeo.
On the day the troops were dispatched, Goguryeo was shaken.
