Chapter 1110 Emperor Chongping: With ulterior motives, where are the guards of Jinyi Mansion?
Chapter 1110 Emperor Chongping: ...with ulterior motives, where are the guards of Jinyi Mansion? (Please vote for me!)
Kunning Palace is brightly lit, as bright as day.
The octagonal glazed palace lanterns moved with the wind under the eaves of the corridor, creating circles of light and shadow that varied in size and size.
In the palace, the Arhat bed was covered with soft mattresses, and the Empress of Song, wearing a vermilion skirt and a majestic bun, was talking to Concubine Duanrong.
After autumn, the weather is getting colder, and the beauty is no longer as thin as her summer clothes. There is a hairpin in her hair like clouds, and jasper jade earrings in her ears, which shine brightly under the lights.
"Your Majesty has arrived." The high-pitched voice of the eunuch waiting outside the door came, causing the two beauties in the palace to stand up and look at each other.
Emperor Chongping stepped into the palace, stared at Empress Song and Concubine Duanrong, smiled and called: "Zitong, Concubine Rong."
Empress Song hurriedly greeted her, a calm smile appeared on her fair-skinned face, and she said softly: "I just said that I was going to invite your majesty over for dinner."
Concubine Duanrong also came forward and saluted, and a clear and pleasant voice sounded, saying: "I have seen your Majesty."
Emperor Chongping sat down, waved his hand, and said hello: "Zitong, Concubine Rong, please take a seat. It's getting late now, so it's time to pass on the dinner."
"Your Majesty, I have just given the order." Empress Song said softly, looking at the middle-aged emperor with her beautiful eyes, and said: "Your Majesty, your complexion has really become better and better in the past half month."
Emperor Chongping smiled and said warmly: "It is said that people are happy when things happen. There are less things to worry about in the northwest, and the border is peaceful."
Empress Song said softly: "Your Majesty, this is the best. Work less on state affairs and take good care of yourself."
Emperor Chongping nodded, picked up the tea cup, and took a sip.
While the couple was talking, an eunuch outside the palace stepped over the high threshold, entered the palace, bowed and saluted, and said: "Your Majesty, Duke Wei has sent an urgent military message."
When Emperor Chongping heard this, his expression changed slightly, he put down the chopsticks in his hands and said urgently: "Dai Quan, bring it over here and let me see."
It can be said that when Emperor Chongping heard the words "Wei Guogong", he almost formed a conditioned reflex.
This is Jia Heng’s second memorial after more than half a month.
The smile on Queen Song's face also faded a little, and there was a hint of surprise in her beautiful eyes.
The little fox handed over military reports and memorials again?
Dai Quan bowed and left, took the secret box from the eunuch's hand, turned around and said, "Your Majesty, there is something in the box."
As he spoke, he reached out to open the box and handed over the military reports and memorials inside.
Emperor Chongping took over the military reports and memorials. Xia Shouzhong, the eunuch of the Sixth Palace, held up the candlestick and the orange candlelight came close to watch with Emperor Chongping.
Emperor Chongping first picked up the military newspaper and read it. Under his thin, loose eyebrows, his eyes flickered, and his thin and dark face gradually showed an excited look.
Queen Song and Concubine Duanrong on the side quickly put down their chopsticks, their beautiful eyes sparkling, and they looked at Emperor Chongping expectantly.
"Your Majesty, what do you say?" Queen Song's red lips parted slightly and she called softly.
Emperor Chongping put down the military report, his face was excited, and his tone was trembling with excitement, and he said: "Zitong, Ziyu won a victory in Hami City. Ziyu defeated the 50,000 elite soldiers of the Junggar tribe, and once again annihilated more than 30,000 enemy bandits.
, killed Wen Chun, the son of Junggar Khan Baturhun, and others. Junggar was defeated, the Seven Guards of Guanxi were as secure as a rock, and Ziyu won another great victory in the northwest."
Sure enough, he knew that Ziyu would not let him down, so what about the Junggar tribe? They were just following in the footsteps of Heshuote Mongolia!
Nearly 50,000 to 60,000 people were defeated at the hands of Zi Yu. If He Shuote is added to the equation, after Zi Yu went out to conquer, all the barbarians in the northwest were wiped out.
Ziyu, this is his minister of Zhuguo.
Empress Song raised her eyebrows, her beautiful eyes filled with surprise, and said, "Ziyu won another great victory in Northern Xinjiang?"
The beauty's tone of voice was melodious and melodious, and because of her joyful expression, a trace of indescribable maturity and beauty appeared in the corners of her eyebrows that combined the charm of beauty and motherhood.
Concubine Duanrong on the side also had a happy face on her bright and beautiful face, and said softly: "Your Majesty, did Ziyu win another battle in the northwest?"
I don't know how many times this has happened. Her son-in-law has been fighting in the northwest, and the reports of good news never stop coming.
"Yes, from now on, in the 32nd year of Junggar, they will not be able to invade our Han border again." Emperor Chongping said with emotion, then picked up the memorial and began to read it attentively.
The memorial written by Jia Heng mainly mentioned the management of the Seven Guards of Guanxi and the subsequent return of the army to the court.
Emperor Chongping gently closed the memorial and said happily: "Ziyu mentioned in the memorial that he can return to the capital with his teacher."
"Then the war in the northwest will be over." Empress Song said softly, her gorgeous face glowing as bright as the clouds.
Is the little fox going to take a class?
It’s just that I don’t know how I’m doing lately, or how much credit I’ve made...
Emperor Chongping sighed and said loudly: "Since the beginning of spring, the imperial court has been involved in many wars from the northern Xinjiang to the northwest, spending an unknown amount of money on food. Ziyu once mentioned in his memorial that if we go deep into the Western Regions,
Once the war drags on for a long time and the Jurchens raise their own troops again, we, the great men, will be in danger of being attacked on many sides and being overwhelmed."
I have to say that it is a bit regretful that we were unable to defeat Junggar in one go and regain the Western Regions.
Empress Song thought for a while and said softly: "Your Majesty, it is good to withdraw the troops this way. I feel that this war has been going on for almost a year. The danger of swords and soldiers makes everyone uneasy."
Emperor Chongping nodded and said warmly: "Zitong, you and Concubine Rong have a talk first. I will go and summon the cabinet and the minister of military aircraft to discuss the withdrawal of troops."
After the commander returns to Beijing, the most difficult issues still remain: pensions for fallen soldiers and awards to relevant generals.
How to award Ziyu's title?
The first-class Duke is treated a little lightly for his contribution to the expansion of territory, but the contribution of a county prince to the founding of a country is far from enough.
In fact, the titles of county kings are often awarded based on accumulated merits. In other words, there are some undefined levels between dukes and kings.
Under the willow-leaf slender eyebrows of Queen Song, her watery phoenix eyes surged softly, and she said softly: "Then your Majesty, go and get busy."
After Emperor Chongping left, Concubine Duanrong's cold and jade face had a bright smile, like flowers and trees and piles of snow. She could not hide the joy in her voice and said: "Sister, Ziyu has won another great victory this time. This time the northwest should be completely pacified.
Already."
Because of her joy, this beauty's previously cool and graceful aura like icebergs and snow lotuses was slightly gone, and her cold voice was a little more subdued, seeming to have a little more playfulness of a little girl.
Empress Song smiled and said: "I told you from the beginning, when Xianning married Zi Yu, he found his beloved. Looking at the big men, how could anyone be so provocative? It was only at the founding of the People's Republic of China that there were such handsome men in the world.
.”
This little fox, maybe it would have been better if Yan'er had allowed him to marry him in the first place?
Xianning also sent Yan'er to the south, but he didn't know what he had in mind.
Concubine Duanrong nodded her head, her face bright and beautiful, and said softly: "It's just that I came back this time, and I don't know how I got the reward."
Empress Song said softly: "Don't worry, sister, Your Majesty is well aware of this."
This time his meritorious service is definitely more than enough to be promoted to the first rank of Duke, but it is still a bit difficult to repay the merit, and I don’t know what can be done to compensate for the rest.
At this moment, as Kunning Palace was filled with a jubilant atmosphere, the news of Jia Heng's victory gradually spread in the palace garden, and the Supreme Emperor in Chonghua Palace also heard the news.
The Supreme Emperor put down the trembling brush in his hand, closed the book "Longzhi's Political Gains and Losses" and said, "I just heard someone say that the northwest has won another victory. Jia Ziyu defeated Junggar in Hami?"
As his body grows older, this old emperor seems to want to leave some political legacy to this world.
"That's what happened." Empress Dowager Feng held a bowl of egg custard, handed it over, and said, "Use some first."
The Supreme Emperor can no longer eat cold and hard food, so he can only eat some egg custard and gruel recently.
Thinking appeared on the old face of the Supreme Emperor, he took the egg custard and said: "This great victory in the northwest, annihilating the Heshuote and Junggar tribes, and recovering the Seven Guards of Guanxi, will be difficult for Jia Heng."
You don’t need to think about it to know how difficult it is to lead a defeated army to regroup and then turn defeat into victory. What kind of turning the tide is this?
Empress Dowager Feng said: "I don't know how to reward my achievements now. That child has made a lot of achievements in the past few years. Now he is less than 20 years old and is already a third-class Duke."
The Supreme Emperor thought for a while and said: "After all, the prince is not interested in recovering the Seven Guards of Kansai, but the first-class Duke is still a little lenient."
Empress Dowager Feng said softly: "We are all one family, and we can't say that we are not deserving of our merits. Once we have accumulated enough merits, we can just make them the king of the county."
"Yes, we are a family after all." The Supreme Emperor said with emotion.
The Supreme Emperor asked again: "Li'er has been in the south for so long, why hasn't she come back yet?"
"Originally, I sent the letter to come back, but isn't there another war in the northwest? The national treasury is empty, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs has made a lot of money to supplement it. Li'er is helping to raise money in the south. Not long ago, the Ministry of Internal Affairs in the south sent hundreds more
Ten thousand taels of silver support the war effort on the front line." Empress Dowager Feng said softly.
As he said that, he glanced at the Supreme Emperor and said, "It's the money I got from the salt affairs, weaving bureau, and maritime trade."
The Supreme Emperor nodded and said: "Opening up the sea for trade and prospering maritime trade can be a source of wealth."
There is no mention of the Salt Service and the Weaving Bureau, because both were small treasuries that the emperor had access to at will.
Empress Dowager Feng said: "I heard that the boy from the Jia family came up with the idea of opening up the sea."
The Supreme Emperor nodded and said with emotion: "This Jia Heng is really a great talent in the country. If I had been at that time, I would have betrothed my daughter to him even if I had no choice but to marry him."
Empress Dowager Feng said: "Okay, the egg custard is cold, let's eat it first and then talk."
The Emperor didn't say anything else. He took the egg custard and started eating it.
…
…
Not mentioning the conversation between the Supreme Emperor and Empress Dowager Feng in the Chonghua Palace, but talking about the Hanyuan Palace and the inner study room——
It was dusk outside the hall, the rain curtains on the eaves were like curtains, a little light came out from the wooden windows, and the figures in the hall were of different heights, all of them were high-ranking officials of the Han Dynasty wearing scarlet robes and jade belts.
The chief assistant of the cabinet Han Huang, the Minister of Household Affairs Qi Kun, and the Minister of Military Aircraft Shi Jieli are in the first group. In addition, the officials of the Six Departments, the General Xian of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the Minister of Dali Temple are not far away, because the internal supervisors summoned have been roughly
Reported the news of the great victory in the northwest.
Therefore, all the officials in the palace knew that Jia Heng, the Duke of Wei, had won another great victory in the northwest, but the specific results were not known.
All the court officials whispered about Jia Heng's victory in the northwest.
"After this battle, the Northwest War should be over."
"It's hard to say. Doesn't it mean that we still want to recover the Western Region?"
"If the imperial court continues to fight like this, the treasury will soon be exhausted."
At this moment, Han Huang was listening to the whispers of the courtiers around him, his eyes were slightly lowered, and his face was dark and unclear. In other words, the chief minister of the cabinet had begun to become numb.
Ever since Jia Heng led his troops to the northwest, there have been almost one good news after another, which is dizzying.
Unlike the Prince of Nan'an and Liu Fang and others who made small achievements and reported them to the court when they conquered the west, Jia Heng's every achievement was a major achievement, either wiping out tens of thousands of enemies or capturing enemy captive chiefs alive.
Jishenjing had just been quiet for a while when the news of victory came from the front line again.
Such distinguished ministers who are good at fighting are like King Jian of Qin, Wei Huo of Han, and Li Jing of Tang. They are invincible in every attack.
Describe it in four words, as stable as an old dog!
Not only Han Huang had this view, but also the academicians, civil servants and generals in Shenjing City gradually reached a consensus.
Qi Kun, the Minister of Household Affairs, was standing not far away. Under his thick black eyebrows, his eyes were unclear and uncertain, and he was also somewhat wistful.
Duke Wei was unrivaled in war.
He was deeply aware of the hardships faced by the Ministry of Revenue during this period. During the two or three national wars, the Ministry of Revenue had already been unable to make ends meet. If it were not for the subsidies from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, customs and salt tax, this battlefield would not be able to sustain itself.
I was originally worried that the war would drag on for too long, but it turned out that I was overly worried.
Then think of the man who planned to build the customs and rectify the salt law. Such a person, capable of both civil and military affairs, is truly a talented person with great experience in the world.
If you add in your military talents, it is no wonder that some people in the capital say that Duke Wei is not capable of being a minister.
It is beyond the power of human ministers. This is the latest public opinion in the capital that wants to put Jia Heng in danger and death. It exaggerates Jia Heng's abilities and compares him with those Cao Cao who plotted to usurp the throne.
Sima Yi, Liu Yu, Xiao Daocheng and others compared each other to achieve the purpose of alienating the monarch and his ministers.
But because Jia Heng's age, qualifications, and prestige are not that high, this statement has not yet formed the mainstream of public opinion.
As for the Liubu Hall official, his expression was incomprehensible, and he also had some feelings in his heart.
Pang Shilang, the Minister of Punishment, and Cen Weishan both had unattractive faces.
As the two people who originally criticized Jia Heng for sending troops and insisted on returning to the army, they originally had some hope, but now they are completely hopeless.
Zhao Mo frowned and sighed in his heart.
The Duke of Wei actually won another war with Junggar. After this battle, the grace of the Holy Family will become even more unshakable.
In fact, with the passage of time, the Han Dynasty gradually became accustomed to it and no longer doubted Jia Heng's outstanding military talent.
In other words, I didn’t have much doubt in the first place, but I was just worried that all the achievements in the world would be lost to Weiguo Gong, and it would be difficult to control the situation in the future.
Qin Ye was standing behind Zhao Yi, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, with the same joyful look on his wrinkled old face.
"Your Majesty has arrived!" Just when the officials in the palace were having different thoughts, the high-pitched voice of the eunuch came from outside, causing all the courtiers with different thoughts to change their minds.
Emperor Chongping, accompanied by Dai Quan and others, hurriedly approached, with a look of joy on his face.
"I have seen your Majesty, long live my emperor," the officials in the palace said in unison.
Emperor Chongping said: "All ministers are exempt from courtesy."
With that said, surrounded by all the eunuchs, he came to the royal chair and sat down.
Emperor Chongping glanced at all the courtiers and said loudly: "The purpose of summoning the ministers, the eunuch should have already said the edict just now. Jia Ziyu once again defeated the Junggar tribe in Hami, annihilating 30,000 to 40,000 enemies in one battle, Junggar Khan
Batur Hui fled in panic, and the Han army defeated Junggar so much that Hami and the Seven Guards of Guanxi no longer had any enemies waiting for them."
"Dai Quan, pass the victory report and memorial to the ministers below to see." Emperor Chongping said happily.
Dai Quan responded softly, then picked up the military report and memorial and handed it to the civil and military ministers below.
The civil and military officials present below took the military reports and memorials and began to circulate them.
Emperor Chongping looked at the faces of the courtiers below, his eyes flashed, and a thought came to his mind.
How many of these courtiers are loyal and upright ministers who can plan important events?
In his opinion, most of them are selfish and limited by their own interests.
The courtiers below circulated the good news, with different expressions on their faces.
After the ministers circulated the good news, the excitement on Emperor Chongping's face gradually faded, and he said: "Jia Ziyu mentioned in his memorial that the Junggar Mongols were no longer able to advance westward, and asked the court to select a day to return to the capital. What do you think? "
The ministers in front of them were worried about going militarily and wasting money and people. Ziyu, who was on the front line, had already considered this and asked for help in time.
For a while, none of the officials in the palace came out to speak.
Yao Yu, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, held up an ivory and jade wat in his hand and said: "Your Majesty, I think this is the commander of the army returning to the capital. Since the Duke of Wei has invited me, I think I can lead the troops back to the capital to calm the hearts of the people."
Qi Kun, the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue, also followed closely behind and went out to report: "Your Majesty, since the war in the northwest has calmed down, we can issue an order for the Weiguo Gongbanshi to return to the capital."
"Wei Chen seconded the proposal."
All the ministers in the palace spoke one after another.
Emperor Chongping nodded and said: "It seems that all the ministers have no doubts about the teacher. The cabinet has drafted an edict and ordered Duke Wei to choose a day to teach the teacher."
"We sincerely obey the imperial edict." Han Huang held an ivory and jade wat and said with cupped hands.
At this point, the Northwest War came to an end.
Emperor Chongping looked at the courtiers below and said: "Since the 16th year of Chongping, the war in Northern Xinjiang has begun. For nearly a year, the court has invested manpower and material resources. Although there was a big defeat in the middle, the two national wars before and after They all won. The Duke of Wei went to war and traveled north and south. It can be said that he worked hard and made great achievements. The generals in the Beijing camp did not avoid hardships and dangers and served with their lives. "
When the officials in the palace heard this, they felt a little emotional. This war had been going on for almost a year and it was finally over.
Emperor Chongping said: "The Ministry of Household Affairs, prepare money and food, and provide pensions and relief to the generals and soldiers who died in the king's affairs. Especially the soldiers who went to Qinghai with Yan Ye, the prince of Nan'an County, to sacrifice their lives to serve the country. We must also provide pensions and relief."
Qi Kun held an ivory jade wat, cupped his hands and said, "I obey the decree."
Emperor Chongping pondered for a moment and said: "The Ministry of Rites, in charge of relevant officials, collects the deeds of relevant generals and schools, and casts monuments to record the events, in order to commemorate the loyal and good generals who sacrificed their lives and praise their achievements."
Han Huang's face became solemn, he cupped his hands and said, "I obey the order."
Emperor Chongping was silent for a moment and said: "The rest is about the promotion of Duke Wei to the nobility. I am determined to promote him to the nobility? What do you think?"
The courtiers below were shocked when they heard this.
Duke Wei is... going to be promoted to nobility again?
Cen Weishan cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, I think that Duke Wei was granted the title of Duke after the battle in the Northern Territory, and he was also married to the emperor's daughter. The emperor's favor is so great that the reward has been extremely great. It is inevitable that he will be promoted to a noble title as a reward for his merits. He breeds laziness, arrogance, and the ambition to go beyond the rules, and the humble ministers think that they should discuss it in the long run."
When the officials in the palace heard this, they were all shocked.
Is it better to say laziness, arrogance or arrogance? What is the ambition to go beyond the rules?
It has to be said that the insidiousness of the literati is most vividly displayed at this moment.
Emperor Chongping looked gloomy, his eyes fell on Cen Weishan, and asked: "Are you saying that Jia Ziyu has different aspirations?"
"We are just here to protect you and to encourage you." Cen Weishan knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, Jia Ziyu cannot give up military power for a long time. We are afraid that Tai Ah will back him up, and in the new era, Yang Sui's incident will happen again, which will endanger the country.
!”
"Is it preservation, admonishment, or jealous suppression and exclusion?" Emperor Chongping's face was livid. Without waiting for Cen Weishan to defend himself, he said angrily: "Is it to alienate the emperor and his ministers with ulterior motives? Where are the guards of the Jinyi Mansion?"
"Here." Several guards in brocade robes wearing flying fish uniforms and embroidered spring knives came from outside the palace, clasping their fists.
"Take him to the imperial prison and interrogate him for his crime." Emperor Chongping said coldly.
Cen Weishan's face was pale, but his mind was shaken for a moment. He suddenly raised his head, his eyes were extremely firm, and he said loudly: "Your Majesty, the loyalty of a humble minister to the emperor can be revealed by the sun and the moon. Your Majesty, Duke Wei is not capable of serving as a minister.
If a person is treacherous but loyal, and holds on to military power for a long time, it will definitely bring disaster to the country, and the Holy One has to guard against it!"
At this moment, the faces of the courtiers in the palace had already changed, and they were greatly shaken by Cen Weishan's words.
Can this be said on the table?
It’s probably the assistant’s shocked eyes when she hears: “Why is it so expensive? It’s been this price for so many years…reflect on yourself, has your salary increased? Have you worked well over the years?”
Although the parties concerned are just expressing their disapproval of the justice group that has long used rhetoric such as "a monthly income of 5,000 is equal to a monthly income of 30,000, and a monthly income of less than 50,000 is equal to a disability", by replacing it with the subject limit of "your boyfriend", maybe Jimei people can
Like like crazy.
Han Huang closed his eyes slightly, his face twitched, and he sighed mentally.
Zhao Mo's brows twitched, his lips twitched, and his face was as cold as ice.
Qi Kun frowned and his eyes flickered.
Pang Shilang's face paused slightly, and he thought secretly, Mr. Cen is really tough and offending, and this is not a lie. Such words will bear great risks.
In fact, the reason why Cen Weishan spoke so fiercely was precisely because Jia Heng's political prestige expanded sharply after the Northwest War, coupled with his new law and order to suppress the gentry in the south of the Yangtze River, which naturally triggered the backlash of the old bureaucracy.
This backlash, if we use the theory of luck to explain it, is that the golden dragon of luck in the Chen Han Dynasty felt a trace of blue and purple royal energy, and a feeling of disgust and vigilance arose spontaneously.
The golden dragon in the red and white Qi Luck Heavenly Pillar opened its golden eyes, and Qi Luck was obsessed with it, and reminded Emperor Chongping through the words of Cen Weishan.
Well, the above is pure nonsense.
Emperor Chongping was furious and said in a cold voice: "Since the founding of the Han Dynasty, the Han Dynasty has treated military officers and generals favorably, and the hereditary kings have ignored them. It is a rare crime! The eight princes of the country have all been supported by generous salaries, and they have shown respect to the heirs of meritorious officials. Throughout the history of Qing Dynasty,
Could it be that the rabbit is dead and the dog is cooked, as is the case in this dynasty?"
When the officials in the palace heard this, their faces were slightly shocked.
"If there are really those who harbor different ambitions and seek to usurp the throne, they will be abandoned by both humans and gods, and the world will punish them! If you are jealous and slandered just because your colleagues are outstanding, how can I control the civil and military forces and rule the world peacefully?
Such heart-breaking words and divisive words can confuse people's hearts and bring trouble to the imperial court!" Emperor Chongping said coldly.
His mother reminded him the day before yesterday that suspicion between kings and ministers is the beginning of disaster.
"Holy Lord, Holy Ming." All the ministers in the palace knelt down and said after listening to Emperor Chongping's holy instructions.
But Cen Weishan knelt down, his whole body was cold, and he was too scared to face it.
Emperor Chongping seemed to be still angry, with a cold look in his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Cen Weishan used heart-wrenching words to drive a wedge between the emperor and his ministers, causing harm to the country and the people. He destroyed all the writings he had written since he was born, and was exiled to Yunnan, where he was sent to the army and managed, and will never be used again."
Hearing this, Cen Weishan said anxiously: "Your Majesty, I am a humble minister..."
If he was just sent to prison, he could endure it, but at worst he would have a chance to recover in the future.
Chen Han adopted the canons of the Han and Tang dynasties, and combined them with the system of the Song and Ming dynasties. Naturally, there was a punishment of "destroying all writing since birth", but it was not commonly used.
Han Huang and Zhao Mo were startled and opened their mouths, but after all, they did not want to provoke the furious emperor.
Fortunately, Yan Zhijian's remonstrance at Cen Wei Mountain had already planted a thorn in the emperor's heart.
Zhao Mo thought.
Or maybe it gave rise to a heroic feeling, "Sir, please die!"
It can be said that Cen Weishan's straightforward admonishment almost hit the deepest hidden worries in Emperor Chongping's heart that had not yet brewed.
That is, after Emperor Chongping vomited blood and fainted, and his dragon body deteriorated, he did have a hidden worry about the future of the government deep in his heart!
Perhaps the princes seized the throne, perhaps the Song family intervened in politics, perhaps even Jia Heng was too capable and became a powerful official from then on, with Jia's son-in-law replacing Chen Weng...
And Emperor Chongping's just-in-the-world massacre was more like a political consensus-seeking, or a subconscious imperial maneuver.
When Jia Heng returns and hears about this incident, he will probably form a kind of moral shackles and conscience constraints.
Of course, I will also be filled with fear, tears of gratitude, and my brains will be wiped out in return.
"Your Majesty, please calm down. Military merit is rewarded. The imperial court has its own rules. Meritorious service should be rewarded, and mistakes must be punished. Since you have achieved military merit, you should be rewarded with merit and titles." Yao Yu, the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, pondered for a moment and said: "Wei Wei.
I think I can reward him for his merits by promoting him to the rank of Duke of Weiguo."
Zhao Mo frowned and did not answer.
It is impossible to be named a county king for this meritorious service. Even if he is a first-class prince, he will not be granted the title of county king if he has further merits.
The officials in the palace also seconded the proposal.
Emperor Chongping said: "What Yao Qing and Zhu Qing said is true. This time, he will be promoted to a noble title for his meritorious service. It is also appropriate to reward the relevant generals with meritorious service. He will be granted the title of first-class Duke for the time being. The rest will be done after the Ministry of Household Affairs summarizes the relevant merits.
Let’s discuss together.”
After passing the incident at Cen Wei Mountain, Emperor Chongping felt as if he had eaten a fly. He stopped talking and signaled the courtiers to disperse.
As the ministers left the Hanyuan Hall of the Ming Dynasty with great sadness, the news that Jia Heng had won another victory over the Junggar Mongols in Hami gradually spread to the entire capital.
The people in the capital were immersed in joy, and the imperial court won another victory in the northwest.
