The distribution of political power in the Shaowu Dynasty is not comparable to that of the Hongguang Dynasty, when the Hongguang Dynasty was first established, the East Lin Party and the Eunuch Party were basically divided into courts, but with the flight of Zhu Yousong and the new establishment of the new emperor Zhu Lunkui, the political power of the DPRK and China began to transform.

Now most of the six Shangshu, Xiaojiuqing, and Kedao Yushi are eunuchs, and in addition to Qian Qianyi, only the Ministry of Industry and the Xingbu are from the Donglin Party.

Several cadres of the eunuch party in the DPRK, such as Li Zhan, Zhang Jie and others, heard that Qian Qianyi stood up against the emperor's promotion of Ma Cheng as an official, and originally wanted to come out immediately to fight back against the Donglin Party, and at the same time wanted to take this opportunity to expel the remnants of the Donglin Party from the court in one fell swoop. But without waiting for Li Zhan and the others to speak, Ma Shiying, as the head of the eunuch party, spoke first.

The ministers of the DPRK and China did not expect Ma Shiying to also stand up against his son, in this case, Ma Shiying may have other plans, so Li Zhan and the others thought about it and dispelled the idea of impeaching Qian Qianyi.

Emperor Zhu Lunkui didn't expect Ma Shiying to say this, Zhu Lunkui asked: "Ma Aiqing, Ling Lang has made great contributions, in order to have merit, should you not be rewarded?" ”

Ma Shiying stood up and saluted and said: "Your Majesty, although Ma Cheng made meritorious service in the first battle, there is a lot of luck in this achievement, and at the same time, the officers and soldiers defending the city know that the new emperor has just established and has strong morale, which is the key to the success of the first battle." And Ma Cheng is just a work of coordination in the middle, and the minister thinks that this first merit should be rewarded by the soldiers who defend the city! ”

Ma Cheng was very disappreciative when he heard Ma Shiying say this, the credit belongs to the emperor? This is complete, if Lao Tzu hadn't prepared early, would he have been able to burn so many Qing troops in one fell swoop? However, Ma Cheng also knows what Ma Shiying means, it is nothing more than to keep a low profile, he is only nineteen years old and has already been made a marquis, what should he do in the future? Is it a king?

Although Ma Cheng didn't believe Qian Qianyi's sycophants of His Majesty's might, he still knew the allusions of the high merit and the master, and it was better to keep a low profile before he had absolute strength.

"Your Majesty, the minister also felt that what Yuan Fu and Qian Ge Lao said was right, when the minister was at the head of the city, he suddenly found that Xiaoling emitted a burst of red light, and then the sky burned the Qing army. The minister thought that Emperor Taizu Gao was like this, and it was precisely because he recognized that His Majesty was the lord of benevolence and virtue and the preferred successor of Emperor Taizu Gao, so he arranged it like this. This is all His Majesty's benevolence and virtue moved to the heavens, and Emperor Taizu Gao presented a gift for His Majesty's enthronement ceremony by the hands of his ministers! I hereby wish your majesty long live, long live, long live, and the Ming Dynasty for ten thousand years! ”

Ma Cheng's sycophant slap of the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military ministers was so hung and vomited, why did Qian Qianyi oppose giving Ma Cheng an official just now, just because he didn't want to see Ma Shiying's party strength growing, as for His Majesty's divine power and so on, it is all a pretext. But no one expected Ma Cheng to take advantage of this incident to slap the emperor's ass, which is really disgusting.

Although Zhu Lunkui is not a Ming Jun, he is not confused, why Qian Qianyi stood up against Ma Cheng's promotion, he also knows some reasons. But Zhu Lunkui just became the emperor, and it was the time to unite people's hearts, and it was really unreasonable for Ma Cheng to win the victory without giving a reward, so Zhu Lunkui made an exception to reward Ma Cheng.

Now Ma Cheng has resigned from the reward, and put the credit on Emperor Zhu Lunkui, and at the same time indirectly pointed out Zhu Lunkui's legitimacy, so Zhu Lunkui was very satisfied with Ma Cheng's sycophant just now.

So at this time, Zhu Lunkui was very grateful to Ma Cheng, this Ma Cheng pushed Zhu Lunkui to become the emperor with his own strength, and at the same time knew how to advance and retreat, which made Zhu Lunkui's gratitude to Ma Cheng even better.

Zhu Lunkui stood up and came to Ma Cheng's side, took Ma Cheng's hand and said: "Aiqing, after Song Gaozong crossed to the south, Yue Fei said: Civil officials don't love money, and military attaches don't hesitate to die, then the world is peaceful!" I hope that Aiqing will become my Yue Fei and create a foundation for me! ”

Ma Cheng heard Zhu Lunkui say this, and scolded in his heart: Your mother, let Lao Tzu be Yue Fei, are you doing a storm pavilion in the future? However, although Ma Cheng said so, he still knelt in front of Zhu Lunkui and promised: "Your Majesty, the minister will definitely go straight to the Huanglong Mansion for Your Majesty!" ”

Zhu Lunkui patted Ma Cheng's shoulder gratefully, then picked up Ma Cheng and asked, "Since Aiqing resigned from the title, but meritorious service will be rewarded." In this way, I heard that Aiqing has a son who is already full moon, has he chosen a name? ”

Ma Cheng hurriedly replied: "The dog's name is Ma Yuan!" ”

"Okay, I will entitle your eldest son Ma Yuan as the captain of the light car, and your brother Ma Luan as the right deputy of the Imperial Palace! Chin this! ”

Qingche Duwei is a martial artist from the third grade, and a child who has just reached the full moon has become a third-rank official, which is also the emperor's favor. As for Ma Luan's official promotion, it can be regarded as Aiwu and Wu, the highest governor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate is the left and right imperial history, and the deputy governor is the left and right deputy capital imperial history, Ma Luan has been promoted from the fourth grade to the third grade, and he is happy in his heart, and he quickly kneels on the ground to thank him.

It was reasonable for the emperor to reward Ma Cheng's son and brother, after all, Ma Cheng had just made great achievements, so the Chinese courtiers did not have any objections, and even Qian Qianyi nodded and agreed to the emperor's reward.

Zhu Lunkui officially became the new emperor of the Ming Dynasty today, and also achieved the first victory with the Manchu Qing Dynasty, so Zhu Lunkui was in a good mood, and after rewarding Ma Cheng, he continued: "Ma Shiying, today the generals who defend the city of Jubaomen have made great contributions, passed on the holy decree, and all officials have been promoted to one level!" At the same time, ten taels of silver will be rewarded! "Okay

Zhu Lunkui's decree reached the southern city, and all the officers and soldiers bowed down in the direction of the imperial city to bow to thanksgiving, and at the same time, the news of Ma Cheng's repulsion of the Manchu attack in the city also spread. These ordinary people have no normal channels to understand the war situation, all the news is hearsay, after the processing of people with a heart, in the end, the news became more and more bizarre, and it became Ma Cheng spit fire at the mouth of the city, sacrificing magic weapons, a burst of heavenly fire burned the Manchu million army, and for a time Ma Cheng really became a hero comparable to Yue Fei and Han Shizhong in Nanjing.

At the same time as spreading the word in the city about how the big hero kills the enemy, Ma Cheng was happily walking home with his own soldiers.

Today, because of the blessing of the news of the victory of Jubaomen, Zhu Lunkui's enthronement ceremony is considered a successful completion. Ma Shiying's father and son came out of Wuying Hall to prepare to go home, Ma Cheng had just won the battle, and at the same time he had made a light car lieutenant for his son, so he was naturally happy. But Ma Cheng saw Ma Shiying's face full of thoughts, is his father unhappy that he has made a meritorious service?

Ma Cheng walked a few steps quickly to Ma Shiying's side and asked in a low voice, "Dad, why do you have something on your mind?" ”

Ma Shiying sighed, looked around and said, "Go home first, then go home!" ”

Ma Cheng saw Ma Shiying say this, and there was no way to go home with Ma Shiying and Ma Luan's official sedan chair.

Ma Cheng's home is in Chaotian Palace in Xicheng, and he must pass the Huaiqing Bridge in front of the Confucius Temple to go home. Because it is located in the downtown area, and in addition to the fact that Nancheng has just won the battle, many people who have nothing to do are concentrated here to inquire for news.

At this time, Ma Cheng and others passed by here, and the Nanjing citizens in front of the Confucius Temple saw a group of soldiers, and those who had good deeds asked: "Are you soldiers guarding the city in Nancheng?" ”

There were also good things in Ma Cheng's personal soldiers, and he hurriedly shouted to the citizens on the side: "Have you seen it? The latter one is our Ma Junmen Ma Daren, and the Jubaomen victory was led by Ma Daren! ”

When these citizens saw that this was the big hero, they hurriedly surrounded the inner and outer three floors, making the originally not very wide street crowded.

Ma Cheng saw this group of enthusiastic citizens hugging up, and had no choice but to shout: "Everyone! Don't squeeze! I'm Ma Cheng! Rest assured, the Governor will ensure the safety of the people of the city, and will never let the Northern Captives enter the city! ”

The surrounding people applauded one by one when they heard Ma Cheng say this, so that the surrounding citizens who knew the news rushed to see the heroic posture of the big hero with their own eyes.

Just when Ma Cheng was frequently dealing with enthusiastic citizens, in a restaurant not far away, a pair of master and servant were watching the big hero Ma Cheng defending Nanjing in detail from the window on the second floor.

The master and servant were not very old, and the master looked to be sixteen or seventeen years old, of medium height, wearing the most ordinary green cloth robes, and holding a folding fan in his hand. The servant was younger, only thirteen or fourteen years old, and appeared to be a scholar, wearing a black cloth shirt and a scarf on his head.

The pair of master and servant were originally eating in the box, but when they heard the noise outside, they opened the window, only to find that the streets outside were crowded with people, and everyone was welcoming the big hero Ma Cheng.

The servant looked at Ma Cheng on the horse, pouted and said, "Little. . Childe, does this Ma Cheng look ordinary, with a long roe deer and rat eyes, he is a hooligan in the market at first glance, I really can't imagine how he became a big hero? ”

When the master heard the servant say this, he scolded, "What nonsense, don't people know by appearance?" Han Shizhong was born poor back then, so he was not as good as this Ma Cheng, but didn't he also beat the drum to fight Jinshan later? ”

"Childe, didn't the lord say it, among the two sons of the traitorous minister Ma Shiying, Ma Luan is the most virtuous, and the second son Ma Cheng is completely a second ancestor, I didn't expect the lord to have a time to look away!"

When it came to his father, the boy smiled contemptuously: "My father? My father was dazzled by that fox girl, and he actually married that fox girl with the gift of the main room, and he couldn't believe his words at all! ”

Ma Cheng had already walked to the restaurant at this time, and he could clearly see Ma Cheng's appearance when he stood upstairs. Ma Cheng went to Wuying Hall after fighting in Jubaomen today, dressed in neat armor, and at the same time, because of the fire outside Jubaomen, Ma Cheng's head and face were covered with soot. This kind of big hero, covered in gunpowder smoke and armor, has an infinite attraction for young women.

Huaiqing Bridge is close to the Qinhuai River, there are green buildings on both sides, and there are flower boats in the river, these fireworks women saw such big heroes passing in front of them, and shouted with red faces: "Ma Lang, look here, the slave family lives here, and you must come to patronize the slave family if you have the opportunity!" ”
