Judging from Xiao Wei's military achievements, there is no problem in promoting the title of King of the Two Characters. However, according to the court, it can only be a honor. Although the status has been improved, it still cannot be compared with the prince.
Now Emperor Hongxuan's decree has clearly and mistakenly declared Prince Xiao Wei's status, and he has no shortage of households and palaces. He is also allowed to open a government office and build a yamen. Everything is based on the example of the prince. This is
Even though Xiao Wei was so brave, he was so anxious that he was so depressed by such a heavy reward. He knelt on the ground stupidly, and almost suspected that he was in a dream.
"What? Is Xiao Wei dissatisfied with my reward?" Just as Xiao Wei was stupid, Emperor Hongxuan's mouth curled and smiled. He seemed to be very satisfied with Xiao Wei's reaction and admired him very much.
After Fan Xiaowei was shocked, he said unhappily.
Dissatisfied? Who would be dissatisfied with the pie falling from the sky? Unless you were hit by the pie, you might be dissatisfied. However, if the pie was big enough, no matter how much dissatisfied you were, you would definitely not be as good as the pie.
Temptation, it is obvious that Xiao Wei is in such a mental state. Even though he knows that Emperor Hongxuan's reward is definitely not a good thing, but in the face of the Prince's temptation, Xiao Wei is still
He was drooling hard, you know that this was the prince, not the cabbage on the roadside. Only the emperor's son and brothers could be promoted to Prince. Even if Xiao Wei inherited the throne of the old man in the future, he was not the prince, but ordinary
The two-character king is just a king. Whether the government can be opened or built a yamen depends on whether the emperor is happy or not. If the emperor is not sure, then Xiao Wei can only be a free prince. There is no power, but it is just pitiful.
It is impossible to say that such a generous reward is not moved. But, haha, the ambiguity behind this heavy reward is difficult to think about. Xiao Wei can't figure out what he has to do.
I can get this reward, and I don’t know what the purpose of Emperor Hongxuan’s use of this move is. After a long time, I was really confused. It was not until Emperor Hongxuan made a sound that Xiao Wei was in the state of sacred traveling.
Wake up.
"Your Majesty, the merits I have made are only a small matter. I really don't deserve such a heavy reward. I beg your Majesty to take back the order." Although Xiao Wei was very moved by this reward, he still resisted the temptation of the huge comparison at the end.
"Confused", kowtowed, and replied earnestly with a face full of thought.[
"Well, if you have merits but not arrogant, if you receive rewards, you can refuse. I have not read it wrong, but if you have merits, you should reward them. Could it be that I am afraid of the unknown rewards and punishments? " Emperor Hongxuan nodded with satisfaction and stroked his head.
He asked with a smile on his long beard on his chest.
"This... Your Majesty, I really can't afford it, I..." Although Xiao Wei had deep doubts about Emperor Hongxuan's generous reward in his heart, he looked grateful and crying.
He kowtowed a few times and replied in a choked tone.
"Forget it, this matter is settled." Emperor Hongxuan didn't seem to want to say more about this topic. He waved his sleeves and made a conclusion. Before Xiao Wei could resign again, Emperor Hongxuan had already turned away.
The topic said: "Since you say that horse politics is important, I don't want to fight with you. It's just that so many good horses are completely planted, which seems inappropriate. The war in Sichuan is about to begin, and it is time to use horses. I decided to allocate five from it.
I think it is military use, and the remaining horses will be allocated by themselves. It should be done?"
Khan, the old man is really powerful in his emperor's mind. After giving a sweet date, he still didn't forget to quarrel! Xiao Wei was very familiar with military affairs, so how could he not know that Emperor Hongxuan's so-called adjustment of horses and military use was not used for wars in Sichuan at all.
The reason is very simple. Cavalry is a technical army. If you want to become an army, you will not be so easy to do. After a year and a half, you can build a regular cavalry at all. If you don't say anything else, Xiao Weizi
I've done an experiment, but there are still a large group of cavalry experts supporting me. What's the result? I'm just a half-baked cavalry. I know, if I'm right, if I'm going to oppose it, I'm really good at using someone to be short.
It's hard to say it out loud, let's talk about it, even the people and horses have arrived in the capital. Even if Xiao Wei doesn't want to give it to him, Emperor Hongxuan can just issue an edict to the Ministry of War and take a small turn, and he can still transfer the horses away.
, Instead of holding on, it is better to be more comfortable.
"Your Majesty is wise, I am arguing, but I have something to ask Your Majesty for reporting." Xiao Wei answered very quickly, but there was a small tail left in his words.
"Oh? Let's talk to me." Emperor Hongxuan felt very happy when he heard Xiao Wei agree to give the horse, but he didn't bother with Xiao Wei, so he asked with a smile.
"Your Majesty, although our army seized a lot in the battle of Linzi, there are not a few soldiers who have lost them. I plan to auction the horses I have obtained publicly to the six major horse farms. In addition to keeping the silver for horses, I will take 60 yuan.
Wanliang thought that the soldiers were rewarded with silver for their pensions and rewards, and he was willing to ask His Majesty to reward them with kindness." Xiao Wei said sincerely with his face.
"Well, okay, I agree to this matter, but I originally agreed to give Ma Sanqian twice the amount in three years. Can Xiao Wei do it?" Emperor Hongxuan did not object when he heard this request. After all, the money was the one.
It was not his own to take it, but he could still win over the morale of the army in the name of grace. Emperor Hongxuan had no reason to object, but he did not agree readily. Instead, he chanted for a while and proposed an exchange.
conditions.
"I am willing to be a military order!" Xiao Wei made a promise of heavy rewards during the battle against Hushan, and indeed spent many young people on seizures and military expenses, but after all, there were a lot of casualties. Xiao Wei was very worried and killed.
There was no way to fully cash in the pension silver, so I naturally turned my mind to the income from selling horses. Seeing Emperor Hongxuan accepting his request, a big stone in his heart was put down, and he quickly agreed.
According to Emperor Hongxuan's request, although there are more than 6,000 horses a year, there are six major horse farms in it, so it is quite certain to complete this task. Even if it is not good, you can transfer some horses from Yanxi to replenish your buzz cuts.
There is nothing I dare not make sense.
"Okay, Xiao Wei's words, I remember. I just returned to Beijing and the military was exhausted. I will not give you a banquet. Go back to rest earlier." Emperor Hongxuan stood up with a laugh and waved his face.
He started and issued an order to expel guests.
"Thank you Your Majesty for your great kindness, I'm going to leave." After Emperor Hongxuan said this, Xiao Wei was really concerned about the mother in his mansion and his confidants. Of course, he wanted to have a good chat with Lin Chongming.
After a break, what was Emperor Hongxuan's intention to reward him so much? He hurriedly thanked him, left Liangyi Hall, and exchanged a few greetings with the eunuchs who were coming up to congratulate him. Then he hurried to the outsider of the palace.
, his steps were rushing, and he was quite eager to return home.
"Your Highness, please stay." Just as Xiao Wei hurried out of the palace gate and was about to turn over the horse, a sharp voice suddenly sounded.
"Oh, it's Eunuch Qin, I wonder what my father-in-law has to give?" Xiao Wei turned around and saw that it was the eunuch Qin Dayong, the eunuch in charge of the Eastern Palace, was stunned. However, he soon came back to his senses and was very polite.
He bowed with fists and greeted him.
"Congratulations to Your Highness for advancing the prince. I am here to express my gratitude to Your Highness." Qin Dayong hurriedly approached Xiao Wei's approach and complimented him.
"Haha, thank you for your good words. It's just that the Ministry of Rites has not issued a document. Xiao Wang is still the King of Xingyang now. Xiao Wang cannot afford to take on the title of His Highness. Daddy must not call him like this. Is there anything wrong with you always looking for Xiao Wang?" Xiao Wei
At this moment, I was anxious to return to the house. After a little humble, I asked Qin Dayong directly what he wanted.
"Hehe, this is just a matter of time. Why worry about Your Highness? The whole capital has spread. Your Highness can get this glory because of military achievements. Who dares to speak nonsense?
But I don't believe it." Qin Dayong said in a silly manner, but he didn't explain his purpose for a long time. Xiao Wei couldn't help but frown. Seeing that Xiao Wei's face seemed to be incorrect, Qin Dayong finally stopped
After staying in the whole nonsense, he smiled and said with a wry voice: "I am following the orders of the Crown Prince. I ask Your Highness to go to Mingde Hall for a while. Your Highness wants to hold a banquet to wash away your highness, and I also ask Your Highness to admire his side."
Damn, what a plane to do? I didn't see that I was in a hurry to go home. What a irrelevant guy! Xiao Wei is rushing to go home now, so he has no intention of going to the banquet. Besides, Xiao Wei is right
Xiao Ruhai didn't catch a cold, so he didn't want to have too much connection with him. However, the prince was a half-jun after all. Since he had invited him, Xiao Wei really couldn't refuse in public, so he sang and said, "The prince."
Xiao Wang was grateful for his brother's kindness, but Xiao Wang had not washed away his father. He was afraid that he would be rude when he went there at this time. He asked Eunuch Qin to tell me about it. Rong Xiao Wang went to the East Palace to apologize to the prince's brother another day.
”
"This..." Qin Dayong heard that Xiao Wei actually rejected the prince's invitation, and his face immediately drooped, but he had no courage to get angry with Xiao Wei, and his face turned bitter and he didn't know what to say.
"Eunuch Qin asked, Xiao Wang has taken a step forward and said goodbye." As soon as Xiao Wei finished speaking, he no longer gave Qin Dayong a chance to speak. He turned on his horse and led a group of guards along the East Street.
Hurrying to the Xiang Mansion... There is no doubt that Xiao Wei's return to triumphantly is definitely a major event in the Xiang Mansion. Although the many Ding generals sent to the city gate to greet him were not able to receive anyone, but
It did not affect the festive atmosphere in the Xiang Palace at all. Now, the gate of the palace was crowded with people. Not only Xiao Feng, but also Xiao Ji, two princes, were present, and even Xiao Xuan led a large group of maids to stand.
I looked forward to it on the steps, but I waited around but didn't wait for anyone to come, but I was so anxious that I kept sending people to the palace gate to inquire, but I never had a sure letter. Who would have
I don't know what happened in the palace, which made everyone really anxious, but I can't help it. I can only wait patiently for Emperor Hongxuan to release people.
"The prince is back, the prince is back!" Just as everyone was anxious, a servant rushed out of breath from the back of the screen wall, hurriedly shouting loudly, and everyone who had been waiting for a long time in an instant was immediately ready.
