Gao Qiqian's originally squinted eyes suddenly closed, and it took a long time to open his eyes and sigh.

"In the future, you can let this person walk around our house more, okay, the night is too cold, you can go back as soon as possible, don't let others see it and become suspicious."

These words are already thinking about Liu Ximing's reputation.

Liu Ximing hurriedly surrendered his hand again, "Father-in-law walks slowly, and the student will not be sent." ”

After saying that, he turned around and left with Shao Derong and the others, and when he went back, none of the generals in the tent noticed that he had been out for so long.

Gao raised his hands and looked at Liu Ximing's figure in the distance, stopped and thought for a moment, and then waved to his subordinates to go home.

In Kaifeng City, Gao Qiqian had just returned to the mansion before he took off the big man, and he instructed the little eunuch who followed him.

"Dashun, has the document for Cao Bianjiao's meritorious service been sent?"

The little eunuch put away Gao Qiqian's clothes in a slippery manner, took a hot towel from the maid's hand and handed it to Gao Qiqian.

"Godfather, it was already sent out yesterday."

Gao Qiqian took the towel and wiped his face, and then took out the silver ticket that Liu Ximing had just given him from his left sleeve.

"There are as many as 10,000 taels, this show is really generous."

Zhao Dashun, the little eunuch standing on the side, sent down a few maids who came to serve, and when he saw the silver ticket in Gao Qiqian's hand, he said with a look of surprise, his eyes full of envy.

Gao Qiqian glanced at Zhao Dashun indifferently, took out the silver tickets in his right sleeve and counted them, and then handed him all the silver tickets.

Indeed, as Zhao Dashun said, Liu Ximing's talent is really generous, and these generals are only one or two thousand taels at most.

"Put the things away, take a fold, and we'll write another fold."

Watching Gao Qiqian finish writing the excerpt like flowing water, Zhao Dashun was quite surprised.

"Godfather, this is a bit too much, this kid just gave some money, and he can be like your old man."

Gao Qiqian glanced at him with a look of disdain.

"You know a fart", Gao Qiqian wrote the last few words and put down the wolf.

"Since Gonggong Wei, who of the princes in the court does not regard us as a flood beast, even if there are climbers, they are just some sycophants, it is rare to meet such a person who Hong Chengchou and Sun Chuanting value and want to get close to us, this is a good opportunity."

"What good chance?"

Gao Qiqian closed the fold and handed it to Zhao Dashun.

"An opportunity to help the emperor."

"My son, you remember, if you want to do things in this world, you have to be more powerful in this group of scholars, we who have no eggs, that is, it's okay to help the emperor keep an eye on them, if you really want to call us ourselves, things in this world will be bad."

Zhao Dashun glanced at his mouth, "The left and right are just small students, where can they be regarded as people who do things." ”

"Do you know why our family is the eunuch of the Imperial Horse Supervisor, and you can only serve tea and water?"

Gao Qi glanced at Zhao Dashun.

Zhao Dashun hurriedly nodded and said, "Naturally, it's because Godfather Jian is in the emperor's heart." ”

"Idiot, idiot", Gao Qiqian shook his head, "The most ruthless emperor family, if you expect the Son of Heaven to value your little affection, then you are not far from getting out." ”

"To be a man, the key is to be useful, if you want to be useful, you have to go through your head in everything, do one step and see three steps, and you will go smoothly."

"What's wrong with Xiucai, Xiao Xiucai can also soar."

A subtle smile appeared on Gao Qiqian's face, "It's rare that this kind of person is still generous, so he can't help too much." ”

"Okay, bring another one, our family will write another one to Grandpa Cao, and then arrange someone to replace the previous one."

~~~~

Two days later, the city of Beijing.

In the majestic Forbidden City, the palace maids and eunuchs who come and go still seem unhurried.

In the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Youzhen, the Chongzhen Emperor in a yellow robe, was writing at the desk.

Zhu Youzhen's face was fair, and his slightly long face and thin chin made him look a little mean.

It's also miserable, Zhu Youzhen is only twenty-six, and there are already many gray hairs on his head.

"Emperor, Henan has a twist and turn."

The eunuch Cao Huachun held a stack of music folds in front of the imperial case.

Chongzhen's eyes were bloodshot, and when he heard this, he put down the imperial pen in his hand and looked at Cao Huachun, who had deep crow's feet.

"Hong Yan's excerpt? What's the good news? ”

Cao Huachun hesitated, "There is good news and bad news. ”

Chongzhen leaned back on the throne and raised his hand to Cao Huachun, "Let's talk about the bad news first, let me see where something happened again." ”

Cao Huachun picked out a copy from his hand and read it carefully: "Your Majesty, on the tenth day of the first month of January, the thieves Gao Yingxiang broke Yang City, broke Zezhou in the twelfth, and then entered the ...... in Henan, and the thieves crossed the sky and entered the Tongguan Pass and entered Henan......"

"Bang"

The sound of the teacup shattering scared Cao Huachun's heart.

Chongzhen roared with a hideous face: "Break a city today, break a city tomorrow, Shanxi, Shaanxi, Henan, the thieves are like entering no man's land, what is Hong Yanyan doing with my hundreds of thousands of troops." ”

Cao Huachun signaled the little eunuchs standing on the register to hurry up and pack up, and stepped forward.

"Don't be angry, so as not to hurt your body, and then issue an order to apply for Hong Chengchou."

Chongzhen vented a little better, shook his head and said: "Forget it, Hong Hengjiu also has difficulties, how can the minister of the state call and drink like a slave, good news?" ”

"He Renlong beheaded three thousand in Xuzhou, Zuo Liangyu ......"

As if he had discovered a new continent, Cao Huachun gradually raised his tone and said: "On the second day of the second month of February, Cao Bianjiao's department broke the thief leader Li Zicheng in Nanyang, killing more than 13,000 enemies and dismissing more than 20,000 people. ”

"Emperor", Cao Huachun smiled, "Governor Hong said in this fold that it was a service, and the Hanzhong Mansion raised Su Jin and Shunqing Mansion to participate in the war with their families, and donated a number of military funds to the army......"

After reading the excerpt, Cao Huachun held the excerpt and said to Chongzhen, "Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the emperor." ”

"The country has such loyal people, it can be seen that God bless our dynasty, and the emperor can rest assured."

Chongzhen's face was also slightly flushed, he stood up and walked a few steps, but suddenly looked at Cao Huachun.

"Gao Qiqian, this minion can have a fold?"

"Come up, please take a look."

Cao Huachun hurriedly handed over the fold of Gao Qidive.

Chongzhen took a closer look, and then paired up with Hong Chengchou's excerpts, and then laughed out loud.

"Hahaha, good, good, as Hong Chengchou and Sun Chuanting said, they are really loyal ministers of the country, so that Sun Chuanting's military resources to form the Qin army will not need the imperial court, and Shaanxi will be determined in the near future."

However, Chongzhen had just finished laughing, and then he became suspicious.

"Cao Huachun, do you think that this Sichuan student Liu Ximing will collude with Sun Chuanting and others to deceive me?"

Cao Huachun sighed in his heart, his own master was too suspicious, and he didn't know whether it was good or bad.

"Emperor, it should be impossible according to the old slave, Gao Qiqian has also checked, these people have nothing to do with it in the past, this Liu Xi's order to restrain the homeless people was indeed done in Guanzhong, and for this reason, it was also resisted by the gentry in Guanzhong."

"There is no one in the country who is more inferior than such a gentleman", Chongzhen gritted his teeth and said, "If these people are willing to serve the country like this Liu Ximing, why should the world be worried." ”

"What the emperor said is that all the inferior gentry in the world should be guilty, but at the moment the country still needs them to maintain, and the emperor needs to think twice."

Although Chongzhen was angry in his heart, he also knew the seriousness of the matter, so he had to give up after complaining a few times.

Sweeping the folds on the imperial case again, Chongzhen asked Cao Huachun casually, "How do you think I should reward this son?" ”

Cao Huachun bowed and stood with his eyebrows lowered, "This matter should be judged by the emperor, how can the minions have the qualifications to put their beaks." ”

Chongzhen smiled with satisfaction, and then said to himself.

"Since he is a scholar, he wants to come to the imperial examination, and it is a little inappropriate to give officials directly. Not only can he come up with such a method for Sun Chuanting, but he doesn't think he attaches much importance to money. ”

Chongzhen muttered two sentences and finally made up his mind, "In this way, wear a set of bullfighting clothes, and when you write your will, you can encourage me a few words." ”

"By the way, who is Sichuan Xuezheng?"

Cao Huachun thought for a while and replied: "It's Chen Shiqi, a five-year jinshi of the Apocalypse." ”

Chongzhen frowned slightly, "When it's time to be the examiner of the Dingxiang Examination, you remember to remind me." ”

Cao Huachun smiled slightly, "The old slave obeys." ”

"What about the list of meritorious deeds?"

Chongzhen waved his hand and returned to the throne and sat down, "Let's do it as such." ”

"By the way, Sun Chuanting organized a new army to train the new army, remember to line up a prison army from the palace, be honest."

"The old slave will do it."
