Chapter 978: The so-called future

"Now that this matter has come to light. Then the following things will be easy to do. Zhang Fan smiled. Said. "This time the juniors are here. Go without saying. The most important thing. In fact, it was here to give the court a reward. This time. The silver money and silk silk that the court rewarded. Quite a few. But I think the two adults may not be able to look at those mundane things. But these things are indispensable after all. Let's talk about the following terracotta warriors after such a big battle. If there were no such practical rewards. I really can't say it.

"And about the two adults. I'm sure the two of you will be absolutely satisfied. I don't hide it from the two of you. This decree is now placed in the inn. Just waiting to find a good day. Assemble the officers and men of the three armies. The reading is over. This matter can be regarded as just understood. ”

"That's very good." Heard Zhang Fan say this. Liu Xian and Zeng Xingwu both smiled. It's not that they have any selfish motives. Or the worldly things that value rewards and so on. It's because of that. These things. After all, they deserve it. Even if they don't want to. But the people under them. It is also needed. And. They don't pay attention to these though. But focus on something else. Let's say. Rank.

Such a big battle is coming. After all, it was a big winning battle. And since it was a big win. Then that means. There will be a lot of people who will benefit. Who the hell will be down there. What benefits will be gained. Leave that to the moment. But Liu Xian and Zeng Xingwu are completely different.

Zeng Shengwu. I have been an official until now. It's been almost a decade now. In ten years. Take the seat of the governor of a province. And there is no alternative means. Being an official is also honest and upright. It can only be said that he has been able to achieve what he has achieved in a short period of time. It's a good illustration of his talent. Of course. It's not without problems. Even Zhang Fan didn't let people investigate Zeng Shengwu too deeply. But even if it's just through a few words from Ding Guangyou. Zhang Fan can hear it. Zeng Xingwu really thinks too highly of himself. For people who are of lower status than themselves. It may not be affordable. Of course. This is the case in this day and age. It is universal in any era. It doesn't make a big deal out of it.

In a word. What Zeng Xingwu wanted was very simple. He's not a bad guy though. But it's clear. He's a guy who wants to go up the camp. And this time. The imperial court was able to defeat the servants in one fell swoop. Let the ethnic contradictions and conflicts that have been spreading here for thousands of years be resolved. The most important thing is Zeng Shengwu's decisiveness this time. If he slows down a little. If you have to wait for the approval of the imperial court. Then Liu Xian would not have been able to attack so early. After the delay of the hour. Even now, it is still possible to win. But will there be such a big victory as it is now? No one knows.

So. This time, Zeng Shengwu can be said to be a great achievement. And since it's a credit. Then you should be rewarded. Today's imperial court. Money is abundant. And don't skimp on that. But for Zeng Shengwu. He doesn't necessarily want that. Right. He wants money or not. Not necessarily. Maybe. Probably not. But there is one thing Zhang Fan can be sure of. Status he must want.

And about that. Zhang Fan definitely had to save me, and this time there would be no disappointment. After all, nowadays. The pattern of the imperial court has changed dramatically. Now. The imperial court can be said to be headed by Zhang Juzheng. Something changes almost every day. And after Zhang Juzheng implemented the "Examination Law". It has changed a lot.

Right now. Zhang Juzheng is working on the formulation of the "One Whip Law". And it was the time when he hired people. There were quite a few people in the court. There are also a lot of talents. But those people. After standing in that position early. The psyche has long become powerful on its own gradually. If it is someone who supports Zhang Juzheng. Of course, there is no need to say that again. Definitely going to the end. But. If it's those who don't agree with Zhang Juzheng's approach. That's hard to say.

Those who disagree. Perhaps facing the current situation. There is no way. Had to choose to give in. But that's just the surface. True opposition in the heart. There will definitely be no less. In this way. I don't say what will happen in the future. I'm afraid for now. These people secretly do little things like that.

Today's Zhang Juzheng. What is most needed is that there are people in the DPRK who can support them. Stand up and speak for yourself at critical moments. And this kind of person. The status cannot be too low. Let everyone have a certain amount of recognition. Otherwise. Words don't work. That's completely useless either.

And this Zeng provincial. Obviously, there is such potential. And not just this time. Because of his claims, Liu Xian won the victory of the servants. In fact, Zeng Xingwu is also quite famous in the DPRK. And. He very much agrees with Zhang Juzheng. The first few times, Zhang Juzheng wanted to implement the "Examination Law" in the DPRK and China. There are quite a few people all over the country who play. There are those who agree. There are also those who oppose it. And among those who agree. This Zeng Xingwu is the first one. said that he was the number one person in Zhang Juzheng's support group. It is not an exaggeration.

If this person goes to the capital. Naturally, it is good for Zhang Juzheng. And if you don't look at these one-sided things. Look at the big picture. After Zeng Xingwu entered the capital. It is also very beneficial for the court and the country.

Besides, it's Liu Xian. Liu Xian's prestige. That's much louder than Zeng Shengwu. It is the Ming Dynasty today. can be ranked with Qi Jiguang and Yu Dayou. A well-known general. Only now. Yu Dayou is over seventy years old. Getting too old. There is still a name in Fujian's hometown. Besides, there's no war there. And Qi Jiguang is stationed in Jizhou. Defend the capital. In addition, now the imperial court has exchanged tributes with me. There was no more fighting. Only this veteran Liu Xian, who is over sixty years old. It also galloped on various battlefields.

Of course. He didn't do it for fame, either.

Liu Xiannai was born in the army. Because of the relationship at home. So when he started in the army. The official position is the deputy thousand households. But he wasn't negligent about it. Leading troops is also extremely serious. After that, he was appointed as the general of the Zhejiang Metropolitan Division. Then. He defeated the Japanese under the Urakou Oka. Because of this credit. Not long. Liu Xian was relocated to the deputy chief soldier.

But. Even at a young age, he was already a deputy commander-in-chief. Liu Xian didn't care about these things. He didn't care if he was hiding from his official position. I only care about whether I can go to war anymore. Really. Not long after being promoted to deputy commander-in-chief. Liu Xian struck again. Annihilated all the widows in Liujiazhuang.

These wars. not only played Liu Xian's prestige. It also made the Japanese even more frightened of it. In the minds of the Wakos. He can be said to make them more afraid than Qi Jiguang. After all, although Qi Jiguang did a lot better than Liu Xian. But after all, Qi Jiguang did not have as long a time to suppress the widows as Liu Xianchang.

After such a record. Forty-one years of Jiajing. Liu Xian was officially promoted to the post of chief soldier. Defend Guangdong. But even as a general soldier. Liu Xian is also idle. At that time, what he often did was to lead the army to Fujian to assist in the fight against the Japanese. He and Qi Jiguang and Yu Dayou were three. Defeat the Japanese in succession. The credits during this period are numerous.

Afterwards. Liu Xian succeeded as the commander-in-chief of Wolf Mountain. The duty is to control the north and south of the country. Beware of the invasion of the Japanese invaders. Of course. The word "control" must be seen separately. It's not a fief, a king or anything like that.

Now. Because the imperial court strengthened the coastal defense. It's not just the sea ban that has been opened. It is also for the sake of allowing warships to patrol the coastal waters. It was difficult for the Japanese to get close to the territory of the Ming Dynasty. Plus. Fuso interior nowadays. Because Oda Nobunaga didn't know where to get the aid. The strength is really a huge increase. After his victory. Facing the opponent's surrender to the general. If they refuse to belong to him. It is also to die on the spot. Basically, very few people will be released to be widows. In a word. Nowadays, the plagues encountered by the Ming Dynasty have almost disappeared. Even if it's the occasional fish that slips through the net. It's just a matter of three or five. It's hard to make waves.

In this way. Liu Xian is also idle. You must know that he has been fighting all his life. The absence of a war was so uncomfortable for him. So. When Zhu Yijun first ascended the throne last year. There was news from the DPRK and China that they were going to take action against the servants. So he volunteered. I came to Sichuan. And at that time. Zeng Xingwu has only been in Sichuan for a long time. I'm worried about how to deal with this difficult bone of the servant. I saw Liu Xian arrive. Naturally, he was very happy.

That's it, anyway.

And this time. Liu Xian's big victory. It is indeed a great achievement. The imperial court naturally wants to be rewarded. But as for how it should be rewarded. I'm honestly not too sure. After all. A general released by the imperial court. The chief soldier said to Liu Xianlai. It's already the biggest. That's why I say that. It's because Liu Xian doesn't care about political affairs. I don't want to care. Just the words of the commander. The total number of soldiers is indeed the largest.

And now. The servants were crushed. There are very few wars in the world. Although the northeast side is about to fight. But there's Li Chengliang over there. Don't worry at all. And the north. There is Qi Jiguang guarding it. There's no need to worry about it. Up to the most. There is only this southwest corner. Although now the threat of servants has been lifted. But Zhang Fan knew. It's not just the servant here. There is another threat. Although it is not as powerful as a servant. But it's also tricky.

So. Zhang Fan planned to let Liu Xian stay here for a while. Do yourself a favor when the time comes.

That's the way it is. And after solving the misunderstanding. Zhang Fan and Zeng Xingwu and Liu Xian. It's also a good conversation. Merely. It didn't last much at this time. The drama arranged by Zhang Fan below is about to appear.
