Chapter 270

Xu Mu took a look at him, did not speak, and did not smile as Deng Zhixiang advised. This frustrated Deng Zhixiang, but he was "busy" at the moment and had no time to tell Xu Mu how to return the people's enthusiasm with a smile.

As he was walking, a familiar voice came from his ear. Xu Mu immediately looked up and looked at the source of the voice. It was really someone he knew.

On the street restaurant full of people, there was a window of a room, showing a boy's small head. He tried to lift the upper part of his body to look down, smiling so that his eyes narrowed into a slit, and his right hand waved to Xu mu, "General Xu, it's me, you're so cruel!"

Next to the boy is the third prince with a gentle smile. He smiles to Xu mu on the horse's back, with the same appreciation.

It turned out to be the seventh Prince and the third prince. Xu Mu's eyes stayed at the window for a long time, but he still didn't find a third person.

Kui he thought when he heard the voice of the seventh prince, if the seventh Prince is there, the little princess must be there! Now the fact tells him, no, no! No matter it's outside the city gate, on the street or in restaurants, there are no people.

Because he always kept a cold face and dignity, his inner loss was not noticed by anyone. Xu Mu quickly said hello to the third prince and the seventh prince, because he was outside, and now he is in a state of mind, which is not much to say.

As he slowly approached the palace, the number of people along the road finally decreased. Deng Zhixiang once again complained about Xu Mu's cold face, which scared others.

Next to him, Jing Zhaoyin quickly spoke for Xu mu, "general Deng's words are not so good. In my opinion, General Xu's military might is more powerful and more in line with the image of God of war. The common people will not mind some small details. They will only be more in awe and love of General Xu. "

Hearing this, Deng Zhixiang looked up at the sky and sighed. He was so depressed that he burst into tears: No, his face was going to be stiff with laughter all the way. Is it better that Xu Mu was paralyzed from the beginning to the end and was compared to a god of heaven? Alas, it's all his fault. He lost his wife and broke his army. It seems that he made a foil to General Xu! It's too late to repent.

The first thing for the army to do when they go back to the court and pass through the streets is to report to the emperor in person, receive rewards and gifts, and then go back to their homes to clean up. They take off their armor and put on their official clothes, and then go to the evening celebration banquet.

Even civil servants were dissatisfied, and even envied Xu Mu's good luck. Yes, at the beginning, they all felt that the first victory was a fluke, and the second one was absolutely impossible to win again. But who knows, the good luck was still favored by God on Xu Mu!

The emperor's words could not be changed. His Majesty was smiling because he won the battle, and he remembered his promise. With a stroke of the pen and an imperial edict, the name of the first grade Hussars general was confirmed by Xu mu.

This time, all the generals who volunteered to follow were promoted. On average, each general was promoted at least two levels. For example, Xu Mu used to be a regular second rank general, but now he has been promoted to two ranks and become the highest regular first rank among the generals. Deng Zhixiang is a regular fourth rank general and has been promoted to three ranks from a regular second rank general. Other generals also have their own rewards.

After receiving the reward, the emperor asked the generals to go back and have a rest. After all, the wind and dust servants should be the most tired now.

When you enter the hall, you bring with you the merits of the battlefield. When you go out, the heavy general seal on your hand is packed in a box with a red cloth on the outside. This is already the highest position among the military generals. In addition to this, you can't be promoted any more, you can only use other ways to compensate.

This is the result of many months' sleepless nights. It represents merit and honor. Every general who comes out of the hall is beaming with joy. He wants to go back and share his joy with his relatives immediately.

Xu Mu's pace was very slow this time. The generals who passed him to the front were all his subordinates. Because of his urgency and knowing that Xu Mu would not mind these empty gifts, he quickly walked out with a few polite words.

In the end, there is only one Deng Zhixiang who knows Xu Mu's mind.

In this day, I have been looking forward to it for a long time. I haven't seen anyone from the city gate to the street to the restaurant. I have been lost several times. Now I am in the palace, where the little princess lives. It's normal to have my last thoughts and wishes.

However, Deng Zhixiang also looked around for Xu mu. He really didn't see anyone. He didn't know how to comfort Xu mu. Finally, he could only say drily, "well, maybe you suddenly saw him!"

"Maybe."

Xu Mu suddenly raised his head and gave a deep look in the direction of the hall of love. He looked lost, and then he suddenly raised his feet and stepped quickly to the palace gate.

"Hey, you're walking so fast all of a sudden, it's not me!" Deng Zhixiang, who was kind enough to accompany others slowly, has turned away from others.

Out of the palace gate, Xu Mu pause, or can't help looking inside, empty place broke his last expectation and delusion.At this time, a small soldier came by and led Xu Mu's horse. He was waiting for him here. "General, your mount."

"Yes." Xu Mu turns around, grabs the reins, looks at Xiao Hei who has been following him for many years, reaches out his hand and taps his head gently. Unfortunately, Xiao Hei can't understand the sadness in his heart, and then jumps onto the horse.

Deng Zhixiang was already on the horse. He rode over, and the sound of the horse's hooves seemed to be rhythmic music on the floor. "I have to go back quickly and report good news to my family."

"I'm going back to the general's house." After Xu Mu finished, he kicked the horse in the stomach, and Xiao Hei, who always knew the master well, opened his hoof.

He should go back too. Tiebo is still waiting for him in the general's house. Tiebo is also his relative.

Now that he has decided to go back, Xu Mu runs fast on his horse, and the wind skips over his face. He doesn't have the slightest sense of the cold wind on the border. The wind coming from the front can't give him a blow, but the blow in his heart and the feeling of emptiness seem that nothing can fill it up.

It shouldn't be. Mingming, Mingming, he received a letter like that.

The general's residence will arrive soon. Xu mu, who is galloping all the way, dismounts directly at the gate, hands the horse's rope to the boy at the gate and goes inside. He thinks he probably needs to take a cold bath to calm down. He always has to do something to keep his heart from becoming empty.

"The general is back!" Even the little guy standing at the door didn't finish saying hello. He could only see that his general's armor disappeared. Didn't they all become the most powerful generals? Why didn't he see a smile and a happy look on his general's face.

The boy at the door shakes his head to show that he doesn't understand the idea of a big man, but his admiration for his general is still like a torrent of water.

Because Xu Mu was in a hurry, he didn't notice that there was a carriage near the right side of the gate of the general's mansion. That carriage was not the one he wanted to appear at the gate.

Red bean heard the boy's voice coming out of the carriage and asked in surprise, "won't you say that your general is back? Where are the people?" But the master told her to wait at the door. If General Xu came back, he would tell him that the princess was waiting for him inside.

However, red bean had just been waiting for a nap, and he was sleeping in the carriage. He was awakened by the general's coming back. Now I jumped down from the carriage and went to the door. I listened to the general's words. I just went in in a hurry and didn't say anything. I covered my head and felt helpless.

Now she didn't tell General Xu that the master was in it. It should be OK! Red bean so lucky to think, I hope the master a happy will forget this matter, don't worry about her dereliction of duty, who let today's weather is so good, she waited for a long time, can't help but doze off, who knows people with rush into the exam like!

When Xu Mu rushed into the bath room, he startled all the guys who stayed there to prepare hot water.

Although it is true that the housekeeper has ordered him to prepare hot water to wait for the general to come back, there was no sound outside. He saw his own general in silver armor coming in. His dignity was not covered. He said that he was really frightened.

Seeing that Xu Mu was about to take off his armor and carry cold water, the boy finally responded and quickly called Xu mu, "general, there's hot water. It's ready. It's September. Hot water is better for your health."

Xu Mu's hand with the bucket stopped, and after a while he said a good word.

When the hot water was ready, the clothes were put on the chair next to him. However, the color and style of the clothes seemed strange, as if they had not been worn. Xu Mu glanced at them and didn't think much about it. He just thought that tiebo had new clothes cut.

Taking advantage of Xu Mu's bath break, the boy quickly goes to inform the housekeeper. How do you think the general is back? Maybe the housekeeper doesn't know, otherwise he imagined that the Housekeeper should come in with an honorary general, so he won't be so cold.
