The next day's court meeting was no different from usual, and the first half still made Emperor Chongzhen feel like sleeping.

No wonder some people say that spring sleepiness and autumn lack of summer napping, in April after accepting Yan Yuzhuo as a concubine, and then soon ran to the grassland to cut people, it is now nearly August, it is the hottest time in the capital, Emperor Chongzhen began to miss the refrigerator and old popsicles before he did not cross.

However, there is no use for eggs, and now there is no such thing as nothing.

Emperor Chongzhen, who was secretly unhappy, suddenly listened to Meng Shaoyu, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, come out of the class and say: "Your Majesty, your Majesty personally conquered Lin Dan Khan before, and there was no edict to tell the world, and now Your Majesty has returned victorious, just issuing an edict and amnesty to the world, in order to show Your Majesty's heavenly power and grace." ”

Seeing that after a long time of talking, he was finally going to get to the point, and Emperor Chongzhen also came to the spirit, first hummed lightly, and then said: "Meng Aiqing's words are reasonable, and the edict to the world is originally the meaning it should be, since this is the case, the cabinet will draft the edict, first submit it to me, and then the celebrant will use it to seal it and send it to the world." ”

After Wen Tiren also came out to receive the decree with him, Meng Shaoyu continued: "Your Majesty, now that the spring season has passed, there are still palace tests that need to be appointed by Your Majesty." ”

Chongzhen snorted, didn't mention the matter of the palace test, but just asked: "I once said before, add the enlightened law department, the Ming arithmetic department, and the Gewu department. What is the number of participants in these three subjects? What are the results? ”

Meng Shaoyu secretly said that it was a fluke, thanks to his preparation, otherwise he would not be able to answer this one question: "Your Majesty, there are a total of one hundred and twenty-eight participants in the Ming Law Section, and thirty-four have passed; There were 79 participants in the Ming Arithmetic Course, and 25 of them passed; There are a total of 77 participants in the Department of Physics, and only 14 have passed. ”

Although he had already made some preparations in his heart, Chongzhen was still disappointed in his heart. Bullshit thirty old Ming Jing, fifty young jinshi, all of them are stupid!

Compared with this, the college entrance examination in later generations is not worthy of being called a thousand troops! In later generations, even the number of people admitted to any one or two colleges was far more than the number of people admitted to a spring festival in the Ming Dynasty, and this spring school is still once every three years!

Even if half of them go to Minglu, Mingshu and Gewu, it will not be possible to end up with an admission result of 100 people.

However, this is already the case, and Chongzhen is helpless, so he only said after muttering for a long time: "In this case, the three subjects of Ming Law, Ming Calculation, and Gewu should be examined once a year." If you catch up with the spring festival, you will take the exam after the spring festival. ”

Very well, this is very much in line with your wayward emperor's style. Meng Shaoyu was helpless, so he had to bow down and continue after receiving the order: "Your Majesty, what about the palace test?" ”

This time, Emperor Chongzhen did not divert the topic again, and said directly: "It will be scheduled for the day after tomorrow." When the time comes, I will come up with the question myself. ”

After Meng Shaoyu received the order, Cui Chengxiu went out and said: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty's previous expedition to Lin Dan Khan, as soon as the soldiers were rewarded, the military department has been sorted out. ”

There's really nothing too much trouble about that. When Chongzhen set out on the expedition, he had already sent the eunuchs of the prison army to the level of 100 households, and the statistics of the war exploits were handed over by these eunuchs and the generals of the 100 households, and the military department only needed to review it once.

Chongzhen snorted, and then said to Wang Chengen: "Present it." ”

Wang Chengen bowed down to receive the order, went down the imperial steps to Cui Chengxiu's hand to take the fold, and handed it to Emperor Chongzhen.

Chongzhen opened the fold and looked at it for a long time, and said dissatisfiedly: "It's okay with the Beijing camp and the new army, why are the ten thousand horsemen who came from the side of King Shunyi and Zhuoliktu Khan so little?" ”

Cui Chengxiu was also helpless when he heard this, your old man has always regarded those foreigners as inappropriate, and you will use whatever method damages you, aren't you also going to use this Wanqi as cannon fodder?

This is what Cui Chengxiu and others thought wrongly. Emperor Chongzhen took the foreign race inappropriately, it was based on not listening to his own words, and now this ten thousand horses is obviously not far from the die-hard elements of the "manufacturable material", belonging to him Chongzhen Emperor used to play a "horse bone" in the "horse bone" in the good play, how can he give too little reward?

Without waiting for Cui Chengxiu to explain, Chongzhen spoke first: "In my opinion, the reward of this captain Batel is less, and two more layers will be added. Both the Centurion and the Centurion each added another layer. ”

This time, without waiting for Cui Chengxiu to object, Guo Yunhou, the head of the household department, quit first: "Your Majesty, Captain Piwan, Commander of Thousand and Centurion, Yi Di Ye." If you add another reward, how will it be different from my Ming soldiers? There is not much money and food in the treasury, even if it is not enough to reward me with the Ming soldiers, why do you give them a lot? ”

Hemp sells lots! This Ming civil official is still good, unlike the old lady Cixi who is a mite and a clear man, she would rather be with friends than give serfs, and she is very generous.

The old ladies of the people are generous, but the civil officials of the Ming Dynasty treat foreigners more than one by one, and even the previous requests of Lin Dan Khan and the five ministries of Inner Khalkha to ask for a reward, Emperor Chongzhen refused under the embellishment of these civil officials - the consequences are also obvious, there are two of the five Inner Khalkha departments left, Lin Dan simply wants to go south to take it himself, and he was turned into a dead dog.

Of course, this pot Emperor Chongzhen said that Lao Tzu carried it, and he couldn't let his subordinates carry the pot because of this bit of, anyway, it was a barbarian, Lao Tzu just didn't give it, can you bite Lao Tzu's bird?

But not now, this 10,000 horsemen are going to buy people's hearts by themselves, and they will be sent to the battlefield to work for themselves in the future, and for now, this 10,000 horsemen also died more than 3,000 people for themselves, which is considered their own people, and this reward can not be different from other Ming soldiers - didn't the later generations say, do not suffer from widowhood but suffer from unevenness, if the Ming soldiers get more, these people get less, then these people will die for themselves?

Besides, isn't it just money, and when you copy King Fu, you don't have the money yet?

Emperor Chongzhen, who had figured out this joint, spoke: "Guo Aiqing doesn't have to worry about money and food. This 10,000 horsemen, who accompanied me to the northern expedition to the grassland, also made great contributions, and in my heart, it is no different from the soldiers of the Beijing camp and the new army. All pensions and rewards should be given according to the standards of the Beijing camp and the new army. ”

Guo Yunhou thought for a moment, and then asked, "Your Majesty, what about the people who died in battle?" What about those whose families are on the grassland? ”

Chongzhen pondered for a long time and said: "It is the same as the pension of the soldiers of the Beijing camp and the new army. If his family is willing to enter the customs, he will choose a place to settle down and give me a Ming household registration. If they do not wish, they convert the land that should be allocated to them into money and give it to their families. ”

Guo Yunhou saw that Chongzhen had even taken this into account, so he simply accepted the order.

Meng Shaoyu continued: "Your Majesty, the minister has something to play." ”

Emperor Chongzhen originally thought that this was almost the same, and was about to announce that Liu Xingzuo and other meritorious people would be rewarded, but when he saw that Meng Shaoyu still had something to say, he said curiously: "What else is there to do with Meng Aiqing?" ”

Meng Shaoyu's face was like constipation, and he didn't know how to squeeze out the strange expression, bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that in the future, whether Your Majesty is personally recruiting or the army is going out, this captive will always have to leave some." ”

When Chongzhen heard this, he snorted and asked, "Could it be that Meng Aiqing is accusing me of killing prisoners ominously?" ”

it! Big brother, don't say that, it's heart-wrenching.

Meng Shaoyu bowed down painfully and said, "Don't dare!" Your Majesty, if you don't leave a prisoner, how can you sacrifice the Taimiao? This time His Majesty's personal expedition was originally a big victory, but he couldn't sacrifice the Taimiao, but he was afraid that it would not be perfect. ”

Chongzhen didn't expect Meng Shaoyu to say such a thing. Offering a prisoner to the temple or something, it must be alive? Isn't it the same with the dead? Don't you have to raise it for a few days when you come back from life, and then you will have to chop it with a knife?

Emperor Chongzhen, who also felt that the egg hurt, asked: "Sacrifice the prisoner Taimiao, wouldn't it be good to take the head?" Do you have to live? I didn't think it was necessary. Presumably, with the temperament of Emperor Taizu Gao, he would be even happier to see these dead Tartars. ”

Meng Shaoyu, who asked in one sentence, didn't know how to answer. What you said makes sense, I'm speechless?

Meng Shaoyu, who was in pain, bowed down and replied: "Your Majesty, offering the Taimiao prisoner is not only to make Emperor Taizu Gao and the first emperor happy, but also to declare martial arts to deter the ministers, so it is better to keep a few prisoners." ”

Emperor Chongzhen thought for a moment and said, "I already know. The Ministry of War informed the generals in various places that in the future war, the captives would always leave a few with identity and sacrifice the prisoners to the Taimiao. ”

Although Cui Chengxiu went out to receive the order, he secretly said in his heart that who doesn't know how to keep a few people with status, and hold the enemy chief in front of His Majesty, this is a great feat, who is the same as the emperor and your old family, if you are not happy, you will not leave prisoners.

Emperor Chongzhen saw that no one came out to play, so he said to Wang Chengen: "Xuan, Liu Xingzuo, Zhang Zhiji, and Battle go to the palace." ”

When Wang Chengen heard this, he shouted at the top of his voice: "Your Majesty has a will, Xuan, Liu Xingzuo, Zhang Zhiji, Battelle will go to the palace to listen to the seal!" ”

Chongzhen listened to Wang Chengen's voice, and he had to admire it in his heart. A dead eunuch, not only was his voice not feminine, but it made him shout out a different meaning, not to mention the bronze bell and aluminum, but also a sense of grandeur.

Liu Xingzuo, Zhang Zhiji, and Battle followed Emperor Chongzhen all the way to the north, killing people who were not countless, and it was these three guys who took the lead in killing many times. Especially Liu Xingzuo, Emperor Chongzhen originally had a very good impression of him, and his mother was also considered to have sacrificed for the country.

After Liu Xingzuo, Zhang Zhiji, and Battle walked into the temple mountain in a posture close to trotting and shouted long live the dance, Chongzhen didn't say anything flat, but said to Wang Chengen: "Declare the decree." ”

Wang Chengen first bowed down, then took a holy decree, opened it and said loudly: "Fengtian carries the emperor, and the system says: I will rule the world with literature and fight chaos with force." Mongolian Lin Dan Khan, who refused to accept the king, knocked on the border and harmed the people, and had no choice but to raise troops to break it. The battle lasted for two months. Relying on the spirit of the ancestors of heaven and earth, the chaos was calmed. Erzhu Fengtian conquest soldiers, wind and rain, victory in a hundred battles, ten thousand deaths, the deep grace of the country, the difficulty of Hongji, the propaganda force is very much, and it is a great achievement. Today, Yier and other heroes who sweep the north, reward the rank, consider appropriately, discuss the merits, and reward the lords, I dare not be selfish, and the generals in Er also know it. ”

"Zhang Zhiji, the British prince of Fenger, is extremely determined to sweep the north and push Cheng Xuanli Wuchen, and specially enter the Ronglu doctor, the right pillar country, the left governor of the Zhongjun Governor's Mansion, and the Pingbei Marquis, and eat 2,500 stones, and the descendants will inherit it from generation to generation;"

"Today, Fenger Liu Xingzuo is the military minister of Dingbian and sweeping the north to push Cheng Xuanli, and he is specially entered by the Ronglu doctor, the right pillar country, the left army governor's mansion, the left capital governor, and the Dingbei Marquis, and eats 2,500 stones, and the descendants inherit it from generation to generation;"

"Today, Feng Erbatel is a military minister of Chengcheng Xuanli who sweeps the north of Dingbian, and he is specially entered by Doctor Ronglu, the Right Pillar State, the Mongolian Ten Thousand Horsemen and Ten Thousand Households, and the Pingbian Marquis, with 2,500 stones, and the descendants will inherit it from generation to generation;"

"Yu Xi! The position of the king, but in Fengtian, the award of knightly rewards, how can it be selfish? Today, with the wealth of the world, the merit of the world, the people's resources are limited, and the value of the lord is infinite, so it is not important to pay attention to the number of things. Or I know that there is unfinished, not full of heart, to me to declare to myself, if there is a remark, it is not even possible to break the law, but I am afraid that you will not make meritorious contributions. In the future, if you can make meritorious contributions, you will not hesitate to reward them. These words of mine are heard by heaven and earth, and are known to the people. August 27 of the first year of Chongzhen. ”

Liu Xingzuo, Zhang Zhiji was overjoyed when he heard this, this fucking marquis?

Especially Liu Xingzuo, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a general, and he can actually be a marquis? My own mother originally said that it was a pity that she couldn't see the day when she was crowned a marquis, but now she has been crowned a marquis, mother, you have a spirit in the sky, can you see it?

And Zhang Zhiji was even happier. Let's see who will call himself my little grandfather again in the future, and if anyone doesn't call himself Hou Ye in the future, he will slap him with a big mouth!

When he was happy, seeing that Battle still looked confused, he quickly pulled him, and the three of them knelt down together and thanked him: "Minister, Liu Xingzuo, Zhang Zhiji, Battle, thank you Lord Longen!" ”

Emperor Chongzhen said lightly on the dragon chair: "Flat." Wangqing and others will serve the country with their hearts in the future, and I will not hesitate to reward them. Now that he is a marquis, he may not be able to be a prince in the future. ”

When the reward was completed, Emperor Chongzhen announced the dissolution of the dynasty. It has been more than two months since I set out to go on the expedition, and I still haven't talked to the queen properly. Now the queen is about four months pregnant, but the gold is very expensive.

When Emperor Chongzhen hurried to the harem and came to the queen's bedroom, he saw Yan Yuzhuo chatting with the queen.

Wanyan Yuzhuo's temperament has always been very arrogant, but he didn't want to avoid it, but said with a little wistfulness: "I don't know if Your Majesty has suffered hardships in this northern expedition to Mongolia?" Did you lose some weight? The wind and sand on the grassland are miles away. ”

Queen Zhou was originally a small jasper, although she was a concubine after entering the palace of King Xin, and now she is a queen, but she has never been far away, after hearing Yan Yuzhuo say this, she asked with interest: "What is it like on the grassland?" My sister has to talk to this palace. ”

When Yan Yuzhuo heard this, he chuckled and said, "Oh, what is there to say." The herdsmen spent their days riding horses and herding sheep or something. As long as it's not winter, it's better, but if it's winter, the white plague is a man-eating devil. However, only one thing is good. ”
