Chapter five hundred and fourteen: fame and fortune
The father-in-law was polite, and Liu Chengfeng naturally responded with a smile.
Everything that was to meet the order was prepared. The incense table was placed in front of the father-in-law, and the rest of the people stood with breath. Liu Chengfeng had nothing. It was not that he had already reached the point of indifference to fame and fortune, but this time he made a decision.
Of course, he had a lot of rewards for his great achievements. He also guessed in his heart that he was too young and had little experience. He wanted to move his official position again, but it was impossible.
Although the promotion of military positions cannot pay too much attention to qualifications than civil positions, the country has long had many invisible rules for a century. Liu Chengfeng has surpassed too much, so the palace must also pay attention to the influence.
As for Chen Hongyu, Wang Sili, Lao Huo, Li Dongdong and others, they were all a little excited. Generally speaking, the imperial court rewarded him by ordering the Beizhen Prefecture Office and appointed him. For these little people, it was already very big.
The kindness of the palace was so kind, but it was extraordinary that the decree was issued in person.
Chen Hongyu had just signed the Jinyiwei Qianhu, and had already jumped from a general flag to a middle-level military officer of Jinyiwei. Now he has been promoted and rewarded. All of this has only been a few years. He has felt a little overwhelmed. He followed Liu Cheng.
Feng, he relies on a kind of loyalty, or a kind of blind obedience, but when he walked step by step with Liu Chengfeng, he was both grateful and excited to Liu Chengfeng.
.
If I hadn't followed the Marquis of Lianzhou, how could I have today?
Although Li Dongdong's face was calm, he could not escape excitement. He was well-read in poetry and books, but he was useless. Under the halo of his clan brothers, he was in this reality. Li Dongdong had no choice but to go to another place.
A journey of official career. I thought it was not the right path, and it was even very likely that I would even be able to make a bamboo basket to fetch water. But in less than a year, he saw the father-in-law take out the imperial edict and a little on his face
The father-in-law said with a voice: "The imperial edict is to be borne by heaven, and the emperor's edict says..."
The father-in-law's voice was clear and he was not slow to recite. In a short while, the imperial edict of about a hundred words had been read.
Liu Chengfeng was the first to be the master. He ordered the duke and the others to give him all the earls, but none of them were promoted except for the titles and the rewards of gold, silver and silk.
But everyone's faces were full of joy.
The marquis Liu Chengfeng, now he is directly granted the title of Duke. You must know that there is a hurdle between the marquis and the duke, and most people will never be able to overcome this hurdle in their entire lives, just like the Marquis of Shouning.
Although he was the legitimate brother of Empress Zhang and the top royal relative of the Hongzhi Dynasty, it was more difficult to become a prince than to reach the sky.
There were only two periods of Dukes appearing in the history of the Ming Dynasty. One was a feudal period during the Taizu period. However, most of these dukes were guilty and few of them remained. And some of the main dukes in the Ming Dynasty are Emperor Wen.
The heroes who were granted the title during the Jingnan period, Ma Fang Nanshan after the Jingnan Battle. Emperor Wen treated them quite kindly. Although most of them finally removed the military power, they were given high titles.
After being replaced by hereditary, the dukes were only a few, and they could count them with just a few hands.
Liu Chengfeng was named Duke by a marquis, but no one had any gossip. His contribution was no less than the achievements of Jingnan. If he had not found the murderer behind the scenes in time, the palace would be in danger. This would be related.
Things to do when you are in danger of the country are definitely not fun.
Now, Liu Chengfeng has become the youngest duke of the foreign surname, and such an honor is probably unprecedented.
After all, the official position is only temporary, but the title is an iron rice bowl, which can be passed on from descendants. The iron rice bowl of the Ming Dynasty was not open to supply. After all, the imperial court had to raise so many royal families every year, and it was impossible to raise so many idle people.
Therefore, people with other surnames have always been extremely stingy in their titles, and it is even more difficult for people with other surnames to obtain titles.
Except for Liu Chengfeng, the rest of the people were all named Earl. Although the Earl is inferior, it is amazing. This time the palace is willing to let it go. Everyone was surprised and thanked them one after another. The old man also happily treated him.
Everyone said, "Congratulations to everyone, tsk, the family of the zodiac has been out of the palace for so many years, and has never seen such a kind of edict. Now you have become the lords, and even the family of the zodiac is filled with some joy."
Chen Hongyu laughed. He was originally a warrior, but he didn't expect that he would turn into a lord now and said happily: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say." As he said, he searched for a few silver notes and stuffed them into the father-in-law's hand, and said:
"A little meaning, father-in-law, don't dislike it."
This father-in-law must be an old man in the palace. He knows that the news of good news is like giving money. It is both a grace and a festive matter. It is not good to not accept it. Therefore, he does not care about the other party's identity and takes it happily.
Very quickly, after rolling the silver bill into his sleeve, he immediately laughed dryly: "How dare you, how dare you?"
Everyone was lively and sent off the father-in-law.
Liu Chengfeng looked stern and said, "Everyone comes to the lobby and has something to say."
He entered the lobby first, and everyone looked at each other. It is logical that they should be happy today. Why did the assistant minister have a cold face? Could something happened?
Everyone seemed a little nervous, and then entered the main hall. At this time, Liu Chengfeng had already sat down and looked at everyone with his eyes. These people were all his confidants. Liu Chengfeng believed now, even if
It is a sea of fire that can ensure that these people are willing to go with themselves.
What we are encountering now is something that is never to be joked about. The emperor was furious in the palace. Others don’t know about this, but Liu Chengfeng knows that what he wants to do next is to not let that ten thousand yuan no matter what.
Tong took root in this Jinyiwei, and once this happens, the problem will be serious.
The emperor's meaning is very clear. He should be kind and make him arrogant and try to cut it off. At the same time, he should not cause too much harm. Therefore, he must first discuss this with his confidants, while Wantong has not yet
Arrive at the capital and make plans in advance.
Everyone sat down, Liu Chengfeng was straight to the point and told the matter. Originally, these were secrets in the palace, ~~- Once it was spread, it would be extraordinary. However, Liu Chengfeng could trust these people and had no hurdles. After saying that,
He said seriously: "These words are related to you, but you and I share weal and woe, and are all your own family, so you don't avoid anything you say. But you know what you say today, and you can't pass them to other people.
In people's ears, otherwise it would be fun to be punished in the palace."
His eyes fell to Li Dongdong and said lightly: "Mr. Li, what do you think?"
Li Dongdong smiled slightly and said, "Sir, the student thinks that the first thing is to understand the attitude in the palace. Is the palace willing to break up with us and Wantong, or is it unwilling to break up with us."
Liu Chengfeng's eyes flashed and he said, "How do you say this?"
Li Dongdong said: "If the palace did not care about Wantong's face at all, it would be easy. Wantong had just arrived and had not yet established his prestige. The assistant minister just had to worry about some military officers and could make him fuss until he could not come to Taiwan.
When he was, he had no prestige at all."
Liu Chengfeng shook his head and sighed: "It is impossible for the palace to ignore Wantong. All the civil and military officials in the court are watching. Your Majesty must do something no matter what, otherwise you will inevitably be criticized. Wantong is the concubine after all.
The legitimate brother, the concubine, will not talk about how she was before her death, but now she has returned to heaven, and death is the greatest. The envoys are now staring at her with their eyes open, so even if they want to reject Wantong, they must not be in the Ming Dynasty.
.”
Li Dongdong nodded and said, "If this is the case, then things will be a bit tricky. No matter what, he is the commander after all, and he is different from the magistrate and the assistant minister. He is in charge of one side, and the lord needs to be disobedient, so he can only secretly.
I have made some small moves, but the most important thing at the moment is that the adults must firmly control the inner city and Jubao Trading Company. As long as the inner city, Jubao Trading Company is firmly in the hands of the Assistant Mansion, there is no need to be afraid of anything."
Liu Chengfeng nodded.
Chen Hongyu said: "Actually, the five thousand households in the inner city have long been in the same position as the adults, but I have to remind them in advance and let them listen to the adults obediently. This is better. I invited them to eat in the name of Feng Jue.
The wine also revealed some relationships between the adults and the new commander. In short, tell them that the commander will definitely have conflicts with the adults after taking office, so that they can cheer up. Don’t think that if you climb the commander, what can you do if you climb up with the commander?"
After hearing Chen Hongyu's words, Lao Huo couldn't help but smile and said, "Actually, the most important thing is the hundred households in the Fireworks Huotong. As long as it is returned to the Chief Office, it is equivalent to holding the money bag in the garage office. Don't worry, the hundred households in the garage office.
Neither the humble man will be in prison. Without the permission of the adults, no one can think of scooping out a tael of silver from the hundred households."
Although Lao Huo is much older than before, he is now more courageous. Perhaps because his identity has changed and his status has changed, he gradually gains confidence.
Liu Chengfeng smiled and said, "So, Huo Baihu must be careful. According to my opinion, the first person Wantong is most likely to stare at Fireworks Alley. If something goes wrong, I'm asking you."
Everyone couldn't help laughing when they looked at Lao Huo.
The atmosphere gradually became relaxed, and Lao Huo dared to make such bold words. It can be seen that these people who followed Liu Chengfeng have gradually grown up. They are no longer the little people they used to have, and they have gradually gained the demeanor of being the only one.
In fact, Liu Chengfeng was right. If he was Wantong, as long as he took office, his eyes would definitely be the first to stare at the Fireworks Alley. Fireworks Alley is the money bag of the Jinyiwei. Whoever controls this place can win people's hearts.
