The Son of Heaven actually issued an edict to add a name to a county lieutenant from the ninth grade, which was unprecedented since the Tang Dynasty. According to the practice of the Tang Dynasty, in addition to the emperor and kings, those who are eligible to be posthumously awarded the title also include those ministers who have outstanding achievements and high morality, such as the founding minister Fang Xuanling "Wenzhao", the famous general Li Jingzhen "Jingwu", and the prime minister of the Kaiyuan Dynasty Zhang Shuozhen "Wenzhen".

The lieutenant of Xin'an County, who is rarely famous, and has only been in office for two years, how can he be honored after his death? But after all, people die greatly, and they die in battle, and although there are quite a few whispers in the belly of the hundred officials, no one has come forward to openly question it.

If everything is according to the usual practice, the Son of Heaven will not only posthumously title the dead minister, but also posthumously title the official, but Yang Guozhong turned his head to look at Bian Lingcheng, who was also in the palace.

"General Jianmen, let's talk about how Qin Changshi was martyred. ”

Bian Lingcheng had been waiting impatiently, and after getting Yang Guozhong's approval, he immediately got up and stepped forward.

"Everyone, please listen to a certain word, Cui Qianyou's army bypassed the 200,000 Tang army in Shaanxi County and attacked Hongnong County by surprise, and Gao Xianzhi was helpless against it. A certain sniped a small group of rebels on the way and met Qin Changshi who went out of Bentong Pass..."

Bian Lingcheng is good at telling stories, depicting the front and back of the exciting, while telling Qin Jin's plan in the front, and greatly exaggerating his decision in the back, during which there are many twists and turns, and there are many dangers, and many people unconsciously lean forward.

"Hongnong County is the gateway to Tongguan, once there is a disobedience, Hu Bingfeng can face Tongguan to the west, and to the east can be flanked by the 200,000 Tang troops of Shaanxi County on both sides. When it weren't for ......"

I have to say that Bian Lingcheng is an extremely smart person, and after hyping up the adverse impact of Cui Qianyou's surprise attack on Hongnong on the current situation, he turned to describe that burning the grain and grass in Daxian Mountain would make the trick of the anti-Hu go to naught. In addition, instead of concealing and embezzling the merits belonging to Qin Jin, he also publicized it in the Jiaotai Palace.

This is by no means out of Bian Lingcheng's good intentions, because as long as he sits firmly on the merits of making a decision, no matter how great Qin Jin's merits are, he will steadily step on Qin Jin's head and enjoy the glory and wealth obtained because of his merits. And Qin Jin had already turned into fly ash and coke in the fire of Da Xian Mountain, so he let him taste the sacrifice at four o'clock by the way, which can be regarded as benevolent and righteous.

After Yang Guozhong conveyed the will of the Son of Heaven, he kept silent. Bian Lingcheng's eyebrows danced for an hour, and seeing that the time for the Scattered Dynasty was approaching, Wei Jiansu, who was also the prime minister of Yang Guozhong, coughed twice.

"What the general of the prison gate said, seeing Su admired, the Son of Heaven wants to add praise to Qin Changshi, I don't know if it will be successful?"

The narration was interrupted, and Bian Lingcheng was slightly unhappy, but the matter of the Son of Heaven ordering the minister to pursue the name for Qin Jin was not something he was qualified to hear, and Wei Jiansu asked about it in the palace, but he was greatly elevated. How can there be a reason not to accept a ready-made tall hat?

Although Bian Lingcheng is a eunuch, he is not a person who has no ink, since he is allowed to express his opinion, the higher the level of the nickname, the better.

"'Wenzhen' is good, what does Wei Xianggong think?"

As soon as these words came out, there was a sudden sound of whispering in the Jiaotai Palace. The word "Wenzhen" is the top beauty of the Tang Dynasty, how many Wenchen dream but can't get it, only Wei Zheng, Song Jing and other generations of famous ministers are qualified to be awarded, eunuchs actually come with their mouths, how can people be convinced?

Wei Jiansu pondered for a while, and then pondered: "Xueqin is good at asking about Wen, Qin Changshi went to the age of Jinshi and the first, and the word "Wen" can also be deserved...... Only this chastity word, but it is far from being innocent and observant, thinking about restraint, and not concealing and unyielding, so you should carefully consider one or two. ”

Hundreds of officials immediately echoed it, saying that the word "Wenzhen" should not be given lightly, but should be carefully considered. Bian Lingcheng didn't argue, squeezed out a layer of folds on his face, and laughed twice.

"What Wei Xianggong said is extremely true, I don't know which word is more appropriate to replace?"

This question made Wei Jiansu very embarrassed, he originally just wanted to be ambiguous and perfunctory, and ended this boring court meeting early, and the name was to have those officials who had a division to agree, although there was an edict from the Son of Heaven, but it was not the turn of the ministers to go out in person. But Bian Lingcheng refused to give up, and asked back directly, with Wei Jiansu's character, he refused to easily offend the close ministers of the Son of Heaven, so he could only seriously consider a suitable word.

After pondering for a long time, Wei saw that Su Cai said cautiously: "There is merit to calm the people, and meritorious service can be said to be martyrdom." At the same time, he turned to Yang Guozhong, who had been silent for a long time on the side, "Yang Xianggong, how about the word 'Wenlie'?"

With Yang Guozhong, the prime minister, by his side, Wei Jiansu's prime minister is worthless, and of course he can't make a single decision. Yang Guozhong obviously had little interest in the things discussed by the court today, so he only hummed and agreed, "Not bad, not bad!"

"It's so good, it's called 'Wen Lie'!" Bian Lingcheng high-fived and praised.

……

In the Chang'an Post House, Chen Qianli cleaned up the cyan clothes on his body and stepped out, this is the first day of officially joining the Longwu Army to record the first day of joining the army, looking back on the past, I can't help but sigh, from not entering the stream to entering the stream, others may not be able to get it with their life's work, but he is at his fingertips, not to mention the important errand of the Sixteen Guards of the Son of Heaven.

Thinking about it now, it's like a dream.

An old soldier roared in and collided with Chen Qianli.

"What's the hurry?"

Chen Qianli was determined to obey the arrangement, and after staying in Chang'an as an official, he selected a few capable people as his entourage among the soldiers who came to Xin'an with him, and this old soldier who was eager to roar and collide with him was one of them.

The old pawn wiped his face and cried, "Join the army, Qin Shaofu him, he ......" At this time, although the Son of Heaven has issued an edict to move Qin Jin to the right as the magistrate of Hongnong County, but those old pawns in Xin'an are still habitually called Shaofu.

Chen Qianli's heart trembled suddenly, and he asked in a loud voice: "How is it?

"The imperial court has just announced that Qin Shaofu is him, and he is gone. ”

"Say it again!"

Chen Qianli only felt that he couldn't hear clearly, and he didn't believe it, so he asked again in a trembling voice. With a crying voice, the old pawn repeated again: "Qin Shaofu fought in Da Xian Mountain and died for the country!"

This time, every word was heard clearly, Chen Qianli's chest seemed to be thunderous, and the five insides were like burning, and he staggered two steps under his feet, if it wasn't for the old man's quick hand to hold him, he would have almost fallen to the ground.

"This, this, how is this possible?"

Even if he had already believed, he still asked emptyly, remembering the past of Xin'an, although the days were short, but vividly, all of a sudden, tears burst out of his eyes like a river bursting the embankment.

"There will be no mistake, how can the notice posted by the government be fake?"

One sentence was as straight as ten thousand arrows, Chen Qianli finally pushed the old pawn away, and he wanted to see for himself why Qin Shaofu died.

As soon as he came out of the gate of the post house, he saw a two-horse carriage parked at the door, the curtain was opened, and a white-faced and beardless eunuch came down.

"Is Chen joining the army?

Chen Qianli was stunned when he was asked, and when he looked closely at the posture of the eunuch in front of him who did not look like Xuan Zhao, he couldn't help but be full of suspicion.

"What's the matter, Wen Lie?"

Under the agitation of the mood, he didn't care about the politeness, so he pointed to the rhetorical question back. The eunuch didn't seem to be angry, and said kindly: "You may not know that the Son of Heaven has issued a policy document to add the nickname 'Wenlie' to Qin Changshi. ”

When people mentioned the deceased, it was great respect to call them by nicknames, and when the other party said so, Chen Qianli didn't know whether he was happy or sad in his heart. Qin Jin was able to be honored after his death and go down in history, which is certainly worth congratulating. But he would rather go back to half a month ago, fight side by side with his son.

"Chen joins the army and mourns on the Day, and a certain can be regarded as ......a life and death with Qin Wenlie," he said, and the eunuch made a gesture of wanting to cry.

Chen Qianli, who came back to his senses, thought of asking the name of the other party's position, and an entourage stepped forward and said loudly: "This is the general of the prison gate!"

Chen Qianli's heart moved, the intuitive general of the prison gate was so familiar, and suddenly he thought again, wasn't the Bian Lingcheng who had sent a letter from the Son of Heaven to Tongguan and was ready to kill Feng Changqing and Gao Xianzhi the general of the prison gate? Could it be that the eunuch in front of him with a white face and slender eyes was actually Bian Lingcheng?

"May I ask the general's name, but the order is sincere?"

The eunuch nodded happily, "It's Bian." ”

Chen Qianli was even more suspicious in his heart, when he was in Xin'an, Qin Jin had mentioned Bian Lingcheng several times and hated his name, and this guy was the mastermind who framed Gao Xianzhi and Feng Changqing, how could he live and die with such a villain?

At this time, Chen Qianli, who had returned to normal, didn't know what this person's intentions were, so he endured it and invited him into the post house to sit down and serve tea.

Bian Lingcheng picked up the tea bowl, blew a mouthful of steaming tea soup, and took a deep breath, which contained a lot of pepper and spices, and then took a big sip. After putting the bowl back in the case, he told the story that had been repeated over and over again.

The old man standing on the side didn't know about those filthy inside stories, and he was incited to weep again. I also heard that this unscrupulous prison general, the close minister of the Son of Heaven actually killed him in the sea of corpses and blood with Qin Shaofu, and his good impression of him immediately increased greatly.

Chen Qianli was also affected by the story, but because he had a preconceived impression, he was still skeptical about the inside story. He didn't speak, just waited quietly, waiting for Bian Lingcheng to take the initiative to speak and explain his intentions.

"I don't know if Chen joins the army and can be transferred to the right prison guard, there is still a vacancy for the post of marching Sima, and the candidate has not been decided. ”

The right guard is one of the sixteen guards of the Son of Heaven, no worse than the Dragon and Tiger Army, and the status of the marching Sima in the army is many times higher than that of the record to join the army, as long as Chen Qianli agrees, he will be promoted several levels in the blink of an eye. Bian Lingcheng looked at the loyal man in front of him who was quite restrained, he couldn't think of any reason, this person would refuse.

But on the contrary, Chen Qianli got up and bowed solemnly, and said indifferently: "The general is ashamed to be good-intentioned, seeing that the time has come in the army, please forgive me for not being able to accompany him." With that, he bowed again, turned around and walked out the door.
