Chapter 872: The Qingming Festival

Chapter 872

Lu Junyi knelt to express his gratitude, and by the time he returned to his camp, the palace had already sent the royal reward.

After another round of kowtowing, he finally accepted the reward. Those who had come out of Liangzhou with Lu Junyi were now overjoyed.

"Brother Lu Er has made great contributions today. I'll go fetch a jar of fine wine so we can all celebrate properly."

Day after day of defending the city had exhausted everyone's mind and spirit. Seeing that Lu Junyi had been appointed as a general and that His Majesty had personally bestowed a reward, everyone felt revitalized.

Lu Junyi waved his hand, saying, "Defending the city is what's important. Take this jade belt to the city's pawnshop and see if you can exchange it for fifty taels of silver to buy some grain for the brothers."

"Brother Er, isn't that the reward just granted by His Majesty?"

Lu Junyi shook his head: "Survival matters most."
