Dressed as an old woman, I carry the system and my son to escape the famine

Chapter 356 Fight against injustice

Dozens of generals raised their glasses and shouted: "Yes!"

At this moment, Yao Shu felt what cohesion is. She suddenly felt full of strength and very confident. In such an environment, no matter how cowardly a person is, he will become full of courage.

For a moment, she couldn't help feeling that the reason why Ling Hui became the general was because he relied on his ability to make good use of talents and manage talents, and step by step he reached his current status.

General Ling did not continue to question Yao Shu, but changed the subject: "There is another good news today that needs to be announced to everyone. Because Mrs. Shen contributed such a powerful weapon to our war, which directly led to our victory in the war, so I specifically applied for a reward from the imperial court. Now, the reward has been received."

Yao Shu's face was full of surprise and surprise. She turned her head and looked at Shen Nanshan. She never thought that one day she would receive such an honor.

She immediately came to the general and prepared to receive the reward.

"Because Shen's Yaoshu took the initiative to contribute magical weapons and defeated the Xiongnu in the war against the Xiongnu. She deserves to be commended for her courage. She is specially named the Lord of Ancheng County and has a bounty of one hundred taels. I admire this."

After General Ling finished speaking, he carefully handed the imperial edict to Yao Shu.

Yao Shu's expression did not change, and she always wore a gentle smile.

She slowly returned to her seat, and Shen Nanshan couldn't wait to check the imperial edict. The smile on her face became more and more obvious, she was really happy that she could get the reward.

Yao Shu never expected that she would be directly named the county leader after just contributing two grenades. This was an unexpected surprise. She was very surprised to receive such an honor.

But when he turned around to look, he found that everyone had expressions of surprise on their faces, without any words or changes.

Seeing this scene, she was a little surprised.

Although he was rewarded by the county lord, he could indeed afford such a reward. But there was no unhappy expression on everyone's faces, instead they looked aggrieved.

She looked around in surprise and looked at Shen Nanshan next to her.

At this time, I felt vaguely uneasy. Could it be that I had offended someone, or they felt that they were not worthy of such a reward.

Seeing that no one responded for a long time, she couldn't hold it in any longer. Just when she was about to speak, a strange general next to her suddenly spoke.

"This is too unfair!"

"Yes, how can he be the county chief?"

Yao Shu didn't know how to react for a moment, and looked at the general beside him with some confusion.

The general also sighed softly before, with a look of helplessness on his face.

Is it possible that everyone is jealous that they have received this award?

Thinking of this, Yao Shu didn't know how to break the deadlock.

"Mrs. Shen has made such great contributions, how can she be dismissed as an ordinary county head?"

"The county lord just has a nice name and doesn't have his own land or industry. Isn't this deceiving people?"

"I really don't know what the imperial court thinks. It pays no attention to such a great contribution. I think it just doesn't take us people into account. The imperial court has been deducting our salaries for so many years. I think this is They are deliberately working against us."

Several people were talking at all, and Yao Shu got too much information from here, which she couldn't digest for a while.

Daliang had always been a peaceful and prosperous period before. In order to balance the political power and avoid the situation where the military ministers had too much power, the rewards and salaries of the soldiers could be reduced. The power of leading the troops of the generals was also in the hands of the imperial court.

If it weren't for the Xiongnu being rampant now, I'm afraid they wouldn't notice the soldiers now.

In addition, the title of County Lord this time is just a name in name only and has no real meaning at all. With no rights and no land, they naturally look down upon the generals here.

After figuring out the ins and outs of the whole thing, Yao Shu didn't feel too much.

After all, he only contributed two grenades and didn't expend much effort. It was already very surprising to her to be granted the title of county head now.

Thinking of this, Yao Shu immediately spoke softly, interrupting everyone's indignation: "Generals, I know you hope that I can get a better reward. But for me, being able to get the title of County Lord is already my ancestor. That's a lot of merit. What's more, I only provided two grenades. The reason why we were able to repel the Huns was because of the generals here."

As soon as these words came out, everyone fell into silence again.

They looked at each other and suddenly felt very indebted to Yao Shu.

General Ling felt extremely guilty. He had thought he could get a better reward for Yao Shu. In addition, he had been dealing with post-war matters during this period, so he did not notice the content of the reward at all.

Now that she saw Yao Shu's general understanding, she decided to make up for her.

The soldiers felt even more indebted and couldn't help but praise him one after another.

"Mrs. Shen really understands the general situation and does not seek fame and wealth. To have such an understanding shows that Mrs. Shen is destined to do great things."

"Mrs. Shen, your name is Ancheng County Lord."

Everyone praised Yao Shu one after another. Yao Shu was highly praised for her noble conduct, not seeking fame and wealth, and extraordinary magnanimity. All kinds of praises came her way.

She thanked her carefully, not breaking the rules at all.

Next, many generals stepped forward and took the initiative to make friends with Shen Nanshan and Yao Shu. As the generals exaggerated, Shen Nanshan's personality became more and more cheerful, and he began to talk happily with everyone.

This celebration banquet allowed the couple to make many friends and benefit a lot.

When the banquet was about to end, Yao Shu and Shen Nanshan joined hands to leave, but unexpectedly they were stopped by a maid.

The maid stood respectfully beside the two of them and said softly: "Mr. Shen, Mrs. Shen, our wife invites Mrs. Shen to be a guest in the backyard."

"Me?" Yao Shu was surprised. She didn't know this general's wife before. Moreover, her relationship with the general was not such a good one, so why did she suddenly invite herself.

He couldn't guess the intention of the general's wife, so he always reminded himself to be careful.

Shen Nanshan was about to follow her, but unexpectedly he was stopped by the maid.

"Sorry, the backyard is where the women live. Mr. Shen better not enter."

Hearing this, Yao Shu became more cautious. She softly comforted him: "It's okay, just wait for me here."

Shen Nanshan was still uneasy. Hearing this, he could only nod lightly: "Come out early."

"rest assured."
