In the battle of Tongzhou, the militia defeated the Qing army several times its own and won a complete victory, the captured armor and equipment were piled up, and the countless gold and silver treasures looted by the Qing army along the way also became the trophies of the militia. In the evening of the same day, Wang Qiang had a large banquet in the Special Administrative Region to reward the soldiers of the militia group, and before the banquet, the generals were all elated, and Wang Qiang was praised to the sky. In the evening, Wang Qiang returned to the mansion, took advantage of the wine to write an excerpt to Emperor Chongzhen, and wrote the names of Li Gang, Shang Dayong and other meritorious generals into the recital, and invited them to be rewarded, and the excitement was that he stayed awake all night.

When the news of Tongzhou's victory reached the capital, the whole city was full of joy, and that night Jinwu couldn't help but be full of celebratory crowds, and the wine and firecrackers on the street were out of stock.

Early the next morning, Lu Xiangsheng entered Beijing to report to Chongzhen, this Lu Xiangsheng is an upright person, did not fight for merit at all, on the Golden Palace, he was defeated in Zunhua, rescued by the militia, Wang Qiang commanded the militia to defeat the Qing army after a detailed report of 1510, and even the first time they saw Wang Qiang, the two of them also said, he put the credit on Wang Qiang, and he applied to Chongzhen for punishment. Only then did the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty figure out that it was the little eunuch who defeated the Qing army! They were all amazed. Chongzhen quietly listened to the report, gently soothed Lu Xiangsheng a few words, and ordered Wang Qiang to enter Beijing immediately.

Wang Qiang received the will, rushed to the capital, he carried the fold of merit in his arms, and pondered along the way that the militia defeated the Qing army this time, and solved the crisis in the capital, and the emperor must be rewarded! What reward should I ask Chongzhen for then? Silver? There is no shortage of yourself! If you are promoted, you can only enter the cabinet, but you can get involved with Qian Qianyi, Wen Tiren and other old guys all day long, how can anyone be the master of the house in the Special Administrative Region! Thinking about it, Wang Qiang's brain had a flash of inspiration, right! Chen Yuanyuan! Now I want someone to ask for money and money, it can be said that I am famous, and I am worthy of Yuanyuan, if there is another emperor to give marriage, then I will not run. Thinking that he could marry Chen Yuanyuan, who was beautiful and fragrant, into the house and hugged him in his bed, Wang Qiang was so beautiful that he almost didn't fall off his horse.

Wang Qiang rushed to the capital at noon, and Emperor Chongzhen received Wang Qiang in the south study as usual. After Wang forcibly paid a visit to the shrine, Chongzhen personally helped him up and looked at it, Wang Qiang couldn't rest for days of preparation, and he didn't sleep all night, so his eye sockets were sunken, and his eye circles were black, and he looked like he was working hard, and his chin was wrapped in gauze due to injury, Chongzhen looked distressed and said: "Wang Qiang, you have killed and retreated from the Qing army this time, made great contributions, and solved the danger of the capital. ”

Wang Qiang said with a smile that he didn't care: "Emperor Lao has hung up, but he scratched a little skin, and it will be fine in two days, leaving a small scar at most." ”

Chongzhen ordered to give Wang Qiang a seat, he turned back to his seat, and said with a smile: "Wang Qiang, I can't see that you are still a talent for commanding the army, the five thousand militia regiments have been trained by you to become a division of tigers and wolves, and you are not afraid of danger, and you are still talking and laughing in the face of tens of thousands of Qing soldiers, even a lonely person like Lu Xiangsheng admires you!" ”

Hey, hey, hey, Wang Qiang first smiled proudly, and then replied: "Your Majesty, you have won the award." In fact, you know best how much oil and water is in Weichen's stomach, not to mention commanding troops, even being a small soldier yourself may not be qualified. Shang Dayong and Li Gang were responsible for the whole battle of the militia group. Did you repel the Qing army this time, Weichen is not talented, it is indeed relying on the 5,000 militia groups in the Special Administrative Region, but Weichen also picked up a bargain. ”

"What's cheap?"

"In fact, this time to be able to repel the Qing army, Lord Lu can be said to have made great contributions, although Lord Lu's Shanxi battalion was defeated in Zunhua, but they also frustrated the spirit of the Qing army, fought out 10,000 elites of the Qing army, and also won time for the SAR to prepare, this time the Shanxi battalion under the command of Lord Lu was almost exhausted, it was really tragic." Wang Qiang respects Lu Xiangsheng and naturally tells the truth.

"Oh? You don't take credit. So what is the specific situation, you can tell me. Chongzhen said approvingly.

"Here's the thing------ Wang Qiang also told in detail about the whole SAR defense before and after the war, but the same battle situation is much more wonderful than Lu Xiangsheng's dry report in Wang Qiang's mouth, how powerful the Qing soldiers are, how fierce the Ao Baichang is, how the militia soldiers are not afraid of death, how Shang Dayong is majestic, how Li Gang is clever, and how the Qing soldiers are embarrassed to retreat and flee, just like telling a story.

Chongzhen laughed after hearing this, and said, "That Shang Dayong is so powerful!" ”

"That's right, Your Majesty, that Shang Dayong is really a fighting man, with a black face, riding a black horse, killing a Tartar to call a murderer, if he sings and lets him play Zhang Fei, then he doesn't need to make up, the whole is a Zhang Fei reincarnation!" Wang Qiang's emotions were excited.

"What about Li Gang? Since Kong Ming is reincarnated! Chongzhen quipped.

"That Li Gang is resourceful, but it is not ambiguous to go into battle to kill the enemy, he is a white horse, a silver spear, wearing a white robe, and his marksmanship is also superb, a spear flower can knock down several, if it is Zhao Yun, it is also reliable." The more Wang Qiang spoke, the more excited he became.

"Zhang Fei, Zhuge Liang, and Zhao Yun are all here, then you are their leader, isn't it Liu Bei." Chongzhen Road.

"Hey, hey, I don't dare to be Liu Bei, that's the queen of the famous family, the great-great-grandson of Emperor Xiaojing, the golden branch and jade leaf, I'm just a little eunuch." Wang Qiang said with a smile.

"What about me, according to the Three Kingdoms Theory, who can I be?" Chongzhen didn't seem to have the intention to ask.

"Your Majesty, are you?" This really stopped Wang Qiang, saying that Chongzhen is Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, that is definitely not appropriate, saying that it is Cao Cao, that Cao Cao is a white-faced traitor, not to mention it, Wang Qiang scratched his ears and scratched his cheeks for a long time and said: "The emperor is the king of a country, and he can't talk about the Three Kingdoms, if it comes to the Han Dynasty, then you have to be the Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the holy monarch who opened up the territory, exterminated the Huns, and created the foundation of the world!" ”

"Hahahaha, good you Wang Qiang, I haven't seen this sycophant for more than half a year." Chongzhen laughed happily.

Wang Qiang saw that Chongzhen was happy, took advantage of the situation to take out the merit excerpt from his arms, handed it over and said: "Your Majesty, this time to repel the Qing army's entire battle militia soldiers with their lives, Weichen has written a list of meritorious generals here, please go to the Holy Imperial Review." ”

"Well, the militia has made a great contribution this time, and the imperial court will reward meritorious deeds, and in the past few days, I have agreed with the cabinet that I have my own will for you. Although you didn't go into battle to kill the enemy, but after all, the militia group is under the jurisdiction of your special zone, and you have contributed a lot. Chongzhen said.

"Your Majesty." Wang Qiang deliberately made an embarrassed look, hesitated and said, "Weichen wants to ask the emperor for a favor." ”

"Oh? Let's talk about it. Chongzhen asked in surprise.

"That's what happened, Your Majesty. Since the emperor gave me the marriage, my mother-in-law relied on herself to be the head of the palace, and the queen mother and queen supported her to make the decision, so she was very strict with Weichen, and she didn't say anything to me, and often didn't let me enter the house, so this, this, Weichen wanted to ask the emperor for a favor, and allowed Weichen to ask for a partial house, so as to make this mother-in-law arrogant. After speaking, he bowed his head in shame.

"Hahahaha!" Chongzhen laughed, he saw that Wang Qiang had been holding back for a long time to beg for a reward, and it was so angry and funny. After Wang Qiang got married, he was blocked out of the bedroom door, and the matter of sleeping alone in the study has long been regarded as a joke, and everyone in the Manchu Dynasty knows about it, and Chongzhen has also heard of it, thinking that Wang Qiang is a eunuch, and it is natural to be dissatisfied with the neglect of his mother-in-law, after laughing, he couldn't help but feel pitiful in his heart, sighed, and said: "Alas, it seems that I was also a lot of things at the beginning, and this is accurate." ”

Wang Qiang kowtowed and said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, when I ask for a little wife, I must make that mother-in-law look good, hum!" After speaking, he made a relieved look, and when Chongzhen heard this, he burst into laughter again.

Chongzhen felt that it seemed a bit ungrateful to only give Wang Qiang a grace, but he couldn't figure out what to reward him for a while, he caught a glimpse of a painting of ink and ink that he had just painted on the imperial case, took it with his hand, let the eunuch use the seal, and said to Wang Qiang: "Wang Qiang, this is what I painted with my own hands yesterday, reward you!" Let's go down. ”

"Emperor Xie!" Wang Qiang knelt down again and thanked him. Respectfully took the painting and turned around and left.

Looking at the back of Wang Qiangxiong leaving, Chongzhen suddenly had heart palpitations, and felt that this Wang Qiang had a strange feeling that he couldn't describe, and this person was no longer the little man who had no heart and lungs and could only gag. He stretched out his hand to pick up the teacup but found that the tea was already cold, and he couldn't help but be angry in his heart, threw the teacup on the ground with his hand, and shouted at the eunuch holding Yue who was waiting next to him: "The tea is cold, is this how you serve?" ”

The eunuch with the Yue was so frightened that he rolled on the ground, and while cleaning up the fragments of the teacup, he lamented: "The emperor atonements, the emperor atonements." ”

"Someone! Pull out this blindless slave and take it for twenty battles! Chongzhen roared.
