Chapter 121 Promotion (Subscription Request)

Shen Qingzhou went all the way back to the border of Northern Qi, no, now he is in the place of Nanqing. A very strange thing happened. After Uesugi Tiger's camp was attacked twice in a row by Shen Qingzhou and the Eighteen Riders, he directly attacked the border of Nanqing, causing Nanqing to suffer heavy losses.

But afterwards, Uesugi Tora suddenly retreated, Northern Qi also changed its main general, and when the news of Shen Qingzhou and the Eighteen Riders in Shangjing came, the morale of the people dropped sharply, and half of the continent was taken over by Southern Qing.

This is the normal development. Uesugi Tora is an exception. In terms of military, Nanqing is the strongest army.

Shen Qingzhou did not encounter a single attack on his way back. The battle record of him and the Eighteen Riders was so exaggerated that it frightened people.

When he arrived at the occupied border, he did not stay for long. He replenished his supplies, met Qin Rong, and went straight back to Kyoto.

As for the matter of military supervision, as he had directly charged into Northern Qi, Kyoto had already issued an order for him to return to Kyoto to accept rewards.

This is because we are really afraid that he will make a contribution, but there is no way. He made it to Shangjing alone. You have to acknowledge this credit.

"My lord, the journey is long, please be careful." Qin Rong is a member of the Qin family, but he also admires Shen Qingzhou's martial arts skills in his heart. Even though he is the commander of the border, he just goes with the flow.

In fact, he understood that Shen Qingzhou was being targeted, but to him, it had nothing to do with him. He did not offend anyone, nor did he help anyone. This was the self-awareness of a small person. Compared with Shen Qingzhou and Qin Ye, who were people from Kyoto, he was just a small person.

Watching Shen Qingzhou and his men leave, Qin Rong also breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that the other party was from Nanqing, but the battle record was too exaggerated and the danger was too great, and he inexplicably felt a sense of crisis.

There was too much murderous aura on Shen Qingzhou and the Eighteen Riders. How could they not be affected by killing people? They were filled with murderous aura and their bodies were covered in blood, but there were no flies. You know, flies are attracted to blood.

At the border, Shen Qingzhou also learned some information. There was a silver-medal constable from the Six Gates at the border. This person was the one who delivered the letter to Shen Qingzhou. After knowing the actions of the Six Gates, he directly ordered everyone to rush back to Kyoto.

The world's top masters list is about to be released. The battle with Ku He made him even more certain that he is qualified to be on this list.

He also received information that Northern Qi had asked for peace and sent an envoy to Kyoto. It seemed that the envoy was the great writer Zhuang Mohan. Dongyi also sent people to Kyoto.

This war was fought in a very nonsensical way, and Northern Qi suffered heavy losses. The 100,000 soldiers who were killed were actually more lost than what Shen Qingzhou suffered when he attacked Shangjing.

There was no traveling day or night along the way. His White Dragon Horse was fast, and if he let go, others would not be able to catch up.

This time, he felt that it was all a miracle. It was normal for him to make it out, but he didn't expect that the eighteen riders under his command had all come back alive. It can only be said that after their body training reached the ninth level, they were really different.

He also needs to give Kyoto time to prepare. This time there will definitely be a big reward, and going out of the city to welcome him is absolutely the most basic requirement.

……

Kyoto.

"What's going on?" an old man carrying firewood asked his neighbor.

"Didn't I inform you yesterday that Shenwu Hou would return to Kyoto today? Did you forget?"

"Look at my brain. The high-ranking official who broke into Northern Qi by himself, right? He also bought the lottery ticket from him."

"What's this? I have a piece of gossip, and I'm telling you secretly that this Shenwu Marquis even flirted with the Queen Mother of Northern Qi."

"No way, how old is the Queen Mother?"

"Who knows? Don't tell anyone."

In Kyoto, there are rumors that someone is setting up a trap.

Thirty miles outside the city, the prince and all the officials were welcoming Shen Qingzhou. The prince was happy and gloomy. He was happy because his mother, the queen mother, had given him too much help. Shen Qingzhou was undoubtedly the first person under the Grandmaster in the world, and his combat power far exceeded all the known ninth-grade masters.

Although the prince also felt that Shen Qingzhou was a bit too strong, he was not the emperor at the moment, and his goal was to secure his position as prince. Shen Qingzhou's presence was a huge help.

He didn't regard Shen Qingzhou as a threat yet. That would happen after he became emperor. It was pointless to worry about it now.

The gloomy thing is that after finding out some bad things, it turns out that the eldest princess and the second prince are behind the Ming family.

He knew about the eldest princess, but what about the second prince? Did they cooperate or what? Shen Zhong said too little.

He originally wanted to persuade Shen Qingzhou not to take action, but Shen Qingzhou became more realistic. As soon as he said it, he understood what he meant, so he killed him if he was worthless.

"Second brother, I didn't expect you to come here too." The prince asked. In addition to the second prince, there were also the eldest prince and the third prince. The scale of this time was even higher than last time. Prime Minister Lin and Qin Ye were also here, so they wanted to show their favor.

"Your Highness, you are joking. It's just some rumors. If I don't come, wouldn't it be the purpose of the people from Northern Qi to tear me and the Marquis of Shenwu apart?" The second prince was not afraid. Shen Zhong said that he was the one behind the Ming family. What does it matter? Wasn't he killed later?

"coming."

someone shouted.

Everyone saluted as a tall white horse walked forward as if taking a stroll. Shen Qingzhou sat on the horse and glanced at everyone.

There were eighteen riders behind it, following naturally behind the big horse, but they all looked a size smaller.

The qi of eighteen people are connected, and with the presence of Shen Qingzhou, the murderous aura during this period of time is not concealed at all. The sensitive horses have begun to move restlessly.

Many people seemed to see a piece of blood floating over, and they were very depressed, until Eunuch Hou broke the atmosphere with an imperial decree.

"The Emperor Fengtian Chengyun issued an edict: The Marquis of Shenwu is the bravest among the three armies, with amazing fighting power. He stopped killing with killing, broke through the million-strong army of Northern Qi, entered Shangjing, and trampled the Imperial City.

Although he was stopped by the Grand Master, in order to strengthen the military power of Daqing, Shen Qingzhou is specially appointed as Duke of Wuguo and the Super-Rank General of the Nation. I decree this."

"Duke Wu, congratulations to you. His Majesty said that you have worked hard these days, so you are not allowed to go to the palace. In a while, His Majesty will hold a banquet for all the ministers to celebrate your return." Eunuch Hou was very sensible. He delivered the imperial edict and also expressed Emperor Qing's intention.

"Thank you, Eunuch Hou." Shen Qingzhou was still polite. Just because he was strong didn't mean he would look up to everyone he met.

But this time's reward is interesting. His own title was promoted. Marquis Shenwu became Duke Wuguo, and General Shen Ce became General Zhenguo. How to put it, Duke Wuguo doesn't sound as good as Marquis Shenwu.

In terms of title, he has reached the point where he can no longer be promoted. Above the Duke is the King, and the General Guarding the Nation is even more supreme, there is no further title or reward above that.

He had reached the top in terms of honorary position, and the only way to get higher was to pass it down through hereditary succession, but in terms of real power, he had gained nothing.

"I dare not, I dare not." Eunuch Hou left.

"Cousin, you are able to return safely. Your mother does not have to worry too much about your safety." The eunuch left and it was a public occasion. The prince was the most qualified to speak first.

"Thank you for your concern, aunt." Since she said the queen was coming, Shen Qingzhou had to give her face.

[Host contacts the Third Prince and gains skill points x 5000]

"Duke Wu has returned safely, Chengze is overjoyed."
