On the same day, King Cheng committed suicide in prison. On the same night, Li Fu was martyred for King Cheng in prison!

After the emperor knew, he was not surprised, he clearly knew that King Cheng was a proud person, he had his own backbone, and after defeat, he lived in the shadow of the victor in humiliation, he couldn't do it! The reason why he didn't commit suicide after the defeat was because he still had something to do, and after meeting with the emperor in the prison, he fulfilled his last wish and died!

The emperor ordered King Cheng to be buried, and the loyal Li Fu was also buried next to King Cheng's tomb.

The emperor did not go to prison, except for the accomplices who committed the most heinous crimes when they were young, and all the others were exempted. Of course, if they have official positions, the officials will definitely not let them continue to be present. After a farewell, a few of the soldiers returned home to work as farmers, and most of them were scattered into the battalions. King Cheng's heir, the emperor, also opened the net, and after recovering the fief, he left all of them in the capital, inheriting King Cheng's incense plainly.

A month later, the world finally calmed down!

On this day, after resting for a whole month, I received the emperor's decree ordering me to participate in the early dynasty.

In the main hall, I am in the second place of Wuxun, and in front of me is the old handsome Shen Jun, as for Cheng Sheng and Kang Yan and others, they can only "stoop" behind me.

After a quiet whip, Yuan Huai said with a sharp voice: "The emperor has arrived!" ”

All the officials bowed down in unison: "The ministers see the emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ”

"All the ministers are flat!"

"Long live thanks!"

Yuan Huai held the dust in his hand and said: "There is a book to play, and there is nothing to retreat!" ”

Those who have this performance have already prepared the recitals, and they will present the recitals one by one. Because the chaos was initially decided, most of the things played by the people were to search for and arrest the defeated soldiers, restore agriculture and commerce, reduce taxes and exempt rents, and recall the people. I don't express any opinions, these things, since those who are over half a hundred years old and have been in the officialdom for half their lives to solve them for the emperor, I am one of the early twenties, it's okay to fight and kill, govern the country? Spare me!

After some discussion, more than three hours have passed, although I have been an official for nearly a year, but I still don't like this atmosphere, extremely boring, I secretly slandered: I really have to admire these courtiers, I am a person who practices martial arts, and there will be no problem standing for a day, but those little old men who have no power to hold on to chickens can actually persevere, which is really admirable!

Finally, everything was almost settled.

Next, the emperor began to deal with a matter that had been put on hold for a long time - rewarding meritorious deeds!

Cheng Sheng conscientiously fulfilled his duties, first annihilated more than 100,000 troops of foreign races, and then relieved the siege of the capital, with outstanding achievements. There is also Shen Jun, who said that he is old and cannot continue to serve as the right governor of the Fifth Army. So he ordered him to be promoted to the right governor of the five armies, and awarded the dragon and tiger generals!

Kang Yan assisted Cheng Sheng, worked hard, was promoted to the secretary of the military department, and was awarded the general of Zhenguo!

He Fangxu went deep into the hinterland of the rebels, relocated the rebel reinforcements, and captured a large number of rebels to occupy the prefecture and county, and made great contributions, so that his official was reinstated and returned to Beijing to report his life, but at the beginning of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, a person with high morality was needed to sit in the town, and temporarily stayed in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, temporarily served as the governor of Liangjiang, and returned to Beijing after half a year!

……

Everyone declined, Fang Shan got the title of lieutenant of Zhongxian, and was transferred to Sichuan to do a commanding officer; Cai Mingbo awarded General Zhaoxin and joined the military department as a foreign officer. Hou Zhi, Niu Miao, Huo Yiyu, Wei Dayong and others also gave rewards according to their own wishes.

"Wang Aiqing......" The emperor smiled and said.

Everyone looked at me enviously and smiled kindly, and they all understood that from now on, I would soar, so they were obsessed.

When I was a child, I was often hungry, so my biggest wish was to have endless food and money when I grew up; When we were arrested again and again for theft, and after being arrested by Beijing, our greatest wish was to learn kung fu well, become a big official, and bully those who bullied us a hundred times and a thousand times again! When I really have endless food and money, kung fu, it's not my conceit, there are really not many people in the world who can beat me, and the officials are not small, the governor of the five armies, the left governor, and the gold medal order arrow, Shang Fang's sword in hand, but I feel a little tired, if I kneel in front of people every day, and discuss boring politics with a group of older people who can be my father or even grandfather, what is the point of this official doing? I would rather wander the mountains and rivers with Luo Rou and them, or find a quiet and secluded place, where the male farmer and the female weaver live a peaceful life.

I bowed and said, "The minister is here, the emperor, the minister has something to beg!" ”

"Oh, what's going on with Wang Aiqing?"

"Back to Banzai, the minister feels young, his ability and experience are very lacking, and it is difficult to be qualified to serve as a division, and the minister implores Banzai to agree, so that the minister can resign from his position!"

"What......" All the courtiers were surprised when they heard my words, and they didn't care about the ** of the main hall, and they even talked about it for a while.

The emperor was also surprised, and said: "What does Aiqing mean by resigning from all positions?" ”

"Long live Hui, yes! The minister is a person in the rivers and lakes, and the habits of the rivers and lakes are very heavy, if he is in a high position, he is afraid of losing the majesty of the court! ”

"Wang Aiqing, this time to quell the rebellion, Qing's credit is the first of the hundred officials, if there is no Aiqing, I'm afraid ...... Qing is really the minister of my shares! Qing has the power to turn the tide in the past, why is it not enough to speak? Qing has the talent of Guan Zhong and Le Yi who can't be in the temple, who can? ”

"Long live Hui, this time we were able to defeat the rebels, thanks to the emperor's great blessing and the soldiers' lives, how dare the ministers take credit? If it weren't for Cheng and Kang, the two adults would have come back for help, I'm afraid the capital would have been lost from the hands of the ministers, and if so, the ministers would not be able to redeem their guilt! What's more, the minister also lost the outer city, lost the city and lost the land, he is really a sinner in the court, the emperor is not guilty, the minister is already terrified, and he dares to take credit? ”

"Aiqing Miao, the rebels are coming, its momentum is menacing, if it is not for Qing to be fearless in danger, if the command is determined, to meet the rebels with a weak division, to block the enemy for more than a month, and to Cheng and Kang Erqing before and after, completely annihilating the rebels, isn't this a monstrous achievement? I am preparing to seal Qing as the Zuozhu State, and I will be a difficult general! ”

"By all means, the emperor, the position of the Zuozhu country is extraordinary, the ministers have not yet been established, and the temperament is profligate, and the virtue and talent are not enough to occupy this big position! The pacification of the rebellion was the result of the emperor's good planning, and the joint efforts of all the soldiers and hundreds of officials in the court. ”

The emperor said again: "Wang Aiqing, don't think about refusing, my reward is still unfinished, and I plan to marry Princess Hanyue to you!" ”

"What?" The officials were shocked again, how long has it been? I actually jumped from a ninth-rate person in the rivers and lakes to become the governor of the five armies, and now I want to be promoted to the left pillar country, the general of Jingnan, and the horse of the dynasty?

The emperor's words made me hesitate, to be honest, I like Hanyue, I don't know when it started! Now that the emperor has given me a marriage, I can't help but be a little overjoyed...... However, thinking of Luo Rou, Tian Yunxin, Xue'er and Xiaoxuan, I ......

The emperor saw that I hesitated, so he ordered me to retreat from the court and ordered me to go to the emperor's bed.

I didn't dare to stay slow, and after saying hello to Cheng Sheng, Kang Yan and others, I didn't leave the hall and went to the emperor's bedroom.
