Chapter 496: The Promotion Reward Can Be Like This
Chapter 496: The Promotion Reward Can Be Like This
Although the reward is a fat difference, but there is a way that the civil officials are poor and the military officials are rich, and the central officials have always liked the honorable mansion when issuing decrees, at least the reward seal is far from being comparable to a string of copper coins on the civil official mansion. In contrast, sending to other provinces is even more beautiful, not to mention the public expense for eating and drinking all the way, and often extorting a handful in the states and counties along the road. However, before Zhu Di could think about the candidate for going to Xuanfu this time, Zhang Qian lightly reminded Haishou, the young eunuch of the Imperial Horse Prison, that he happened to be in Xuanfu, so Zhu Di casually sent a small eunuch and asked him to send the holy decree to Xuanfu, and then go from Haishou to Xinghe to deliver the decree, but many people were disappointed.
So, at this time, Hai Gonggong, who was born in North Korea and was deeply favored and loved money, had to appear in this place for the rest of his life. He had also followed Zhu Di to the north once in the eighth year of Yongle before, but that time he only went with the class, and he, the young eunuch who commanded the imperial horse guard's own army, had not even killed anyone. At this time, at the east gate of Xinghe, he saw the hideous and terrifying Jingguan piled up in the shape of ziggurats on both sides, and he couldn't help but gasp, and suddenly thought of a point that he had ignored before.
Although Zhang Yue is not Zhang Fu's nephew, he is a blood relative. At the beginning, Zhang Fu beheaded more than 4,500 people in the first battle of Ping'an Nan for the second time, and then beheaded more than 2,000 people such as Fan Zhi, Chen Yuanqing, and Ruan Renzhu who were captured, and built the corpses into a Jingguan. After many years, almost no one would have thought that the cautious British prince in the court was also a murderous general, just as no one thought that Zhang Yue would shine when Xinghe was besieged.
So, in the face of Zhang Yue, who led the crowd to greet him, the smile on Haishou's face became more amiable and his attitude became more polite. When he arrived at the Thousand Households, he saw that although it seemed to be cleaned up, it was still not as neat and clean as it was, but he was not picky at all, and stood north on the ground with a smile, and after everyone knelt down, he unhurriedly unfolded the scroll.
Although there are eunuchs who are not allowed to read and write, most of the eunuchs and young eunuchs who can mix in the palace can read a few words, not to mention that Haishou was from North Korea to Daming when he was born in a good background. At this time, he looked at the handwriting on the top with squinted eyes, and suddenly found that this was not the usual handwriting of Shen Du, let alone any Hanlin scholar, and he looked like the emperor's imperial book with a stroke, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and reestimated the words of the crown in his heart.
Because it was written by the emperor himself, he initially simply rewarded the soldiers for their efforts to protect the city, and then directly issued the reward: "...... The commander of the king called to die in battle, posthumously presented the governor of the city, and his son Wang Xiang was the commander of the left guard of Yanshan, hereditary thousands of households; Xinghe guarded the Thousand Households Zheng Plains, guarded the Imperial Meritorious, and promoted the Pingwei to command the affairs; Zhou Bailing, a thousand households in the Beijing Camp Shenji Battalion, has meritorious service in assisting in defense, and commands the gods and guards; 100 households were rewarded with 20 stones of rice and 18 ingots of banknotes; The sergeants were each rewarded with fifteen stones of rice and fifteen ingots of banknotes; The families of the war dead are given eight stones of rice and thirty ingots of banknotes every year; The rest of the injured were given rice compensation according to their severity. ”
Thinking of this, Hai Shou paused slightly, as if he was taking a breath, and then continued to read: "Zhang Yue in the military department arsenal Shilang, great wisdom and bravery, and many meritorious deeds. Now Wenqing has built a miraculous feat, I am very relieved, in the past, I was promoted unquickly because I was young, and now it is the time to employ people, we must first be eclectic. In the spring of next year, the year of the Northern Expedition, he was ordered to supervise the military affairs of the Xuanfu with his own title, and to prepare the border affairs of the commander-in-chief of the Xuanfu Army, Wu'an Hou Zheng Heng, so that the army could march north in the spring of next year. Hearing that his clothes were torn during his defense of the city, he also rewarded a brocade robe, and gave his wife and children ten pairs of gold and silver, ten ends of the surface and the inside, and admired this. ”
After listening to this holy decree, everyone present looked at each other, Zhang Yue himself expected that most of them were selling dog meat with sheep's heads, but there was not much surprise. The governor of this year said that it was very expensive, and it was extremely expensive, because it was often a big man. But today's governor is not a special position, nor is there a grade, but the emperor sent Beijing officials to inspect the place at the opportunity.
Zhu Di's reward is really handy!
Zhang Yue naturally didn't know that in order to award the rewards to the soldiers of Xinghe, the court and the central government held three meetings in one day two days ago, among them, other people's affairs are easy to handle, but it is a big trouble for him to be a person.
The first time of this day was the British Duke Zhang Fu led the governor's office to discuss the relatives, for the emperor seemed to have completely forgotten the principle of avoiding the elders, Zhang Fu had to keep silent, but he did not expect that the result of the discussion of the princes led by Liu Sheng, Marquis of Anyuan, was that Zhang Yue greatly frustrated the morale of the Tatars, and made great contributions, so please try the military post and enter the command.
As soon as this general report entered, there was no news, so there was a second time, and the six books and the left and right imperial histories were collegial. This plan is extremely cautious, and finally by the most qualified official Shangshu Jianyi personally face-to-face, Dao Zhang Yue led the crowd to injure the enemy chief with firearms, personally shot the enemy Kou Daxu and broke the enemy with a strange plan on a snowy night is a great achievement, but because of his youth, he can not be rewarded suddenly, please subordinate to the political secretary or the Taifu Temple for the second.
However, Zhu Di, who has always been very good at listening to righteous advice, is still noncommittal, and then the third time, the cabinet ministers are collegiate. This time, it was the smallest number of people, Yang Rong, Yang Shiqi, and Jin Youzi sat opposite each other, but their faces were not at all relaxed as the front-line victory, but they all remembered their former colleagues. Xie Jin froze to death in the snow, Hu Guang died of illness, Huang Huai Du Zhen went to Jinyi to guard the prison, and Hu Yan had a straight personality so he transferred the wine of the country's supervision. And even if they seem to have been favored for more than ten years, they are still the fifth grade, and now Zhang Yue, a hairy young man, is about to cross the threshold of the fifth grade.
Because of Du Zhen, Yang Shiqi has always regarded Zhang Yue as his nephew, and he sighed in his heart at this time, but he really didn't want him to rise too high, so that it would be more difficult to seal the credit in the future. Therefore, he thinks that although it is not absurd for the nobles to change their military affairs with literature, it is also a way, but unfortunately the emperor does not seem to want to do this; And Qiqing's preservation statement, even if it is for selfishness, is also justified, but the emperor is not satisfied. How do you find the best of both worlds now?
"Gong is a miracle, but if Zhang Yue can be ten years older, then things will be easy to do!"
Although Jin Youzi said that he was not interested in Zhang Yue, but this time the military report from Xuanfu happened to pass through his hands, and in the face of the indelible credit, of course he couldn't bring prejudice to such an occasion, but he still couldn't help but complain: "Less than twenty years old and promoted to the fifth grade, can there be such a young example among the civil officials of this dynasty?" I think that the grandfather was just because he did his best to be a teenager in the imperial examination, and the imperial examination was combined with the combination of the country's supervision and recommendation, even if he was ambitious and not old, it was inevitable that some scholars would think that he won by his background, which really hurt the way the court employed people. I think that Wen Zhuan Wu is a method, I think that the British Duke was not less than thirty and was made an earl, not to mention the commander of Zheng Sanpin, that is, he directly entered the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, and I didn't have a word. ”
Yang Shiqi looked at Yang Rong and saw that he was still pondering, and couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart. Among the three of them, he is the oldest, Jin Youzi is second, Yang Rong is again, and he is old and respectful, because he is a close minister of the prince, he is not as good as Jin Youzi and Yang Rong in terms of favor. Yang Rong is now in charge of the affairs of the Hanlin Academy, and even the emperor often calls Yang Bachelor without his name when he is in a good mood, so today this big idea is the safest for Yang Rong to take.
So, he groaned slightly and said: "The emperor put Zhang Yue in the military department, as if he had a plan to train him in martial arts, but since the discussion of Marquis An Yuan and others has not been decided, it means that he does not intend to turn him into a military position." And the reason why the Qiqing court is noncommittal, I think the emperor is probably not blindly seeking stability. If you want to be promoted to the next level, after the rebellion was quelled, there would be more than just a Langzhong, so the emperor should also have the intention of using it under pressure. ”
Crimping ......
What Yang Shiqi could think of, the talented and shrewd Yang Rong naturally wouldn't have thought of it, but at this moment, he couldn't help but think of the means used by some people behind his back when the emperor let him be in charge of the Hanlin Academy. Those guys wanted Zhu Di to alienate him, so they deliberately recommended him to be the prince of the country, although he could cross the threshold of the fifth grade, but if he really got on the fourth grade, I am afraid that his future will only be like this in the future, otherwise how could Hu Yan still wander around the fourth grade for more than ten years? Thinking about it, he coldly recalled the situation when Gu Bin came to see him that day.
"Sir, although the emperor doesn't like ministers to take advantage of the imperial examination examiner to form personal favors, but after all, you are Zhang Yuehui's main exam, even if he is not Hanlin, there is still a difference between teachers and students. The Zhang family has been in the army for generations, and the British Duke is the first person among the military ministers, and being friendly with the Zhang family is not necessarily beneficial to your career, but it will definitely help the overall situation in the future. Although Gai Wuchen can only be in charge of the army by the military department, the emperor is determined to march north, in case the army loses ......"
The next words stopped because he spoke, Gu Bin didn't continue, but he wanted to know what the topic was. At this moment, his expression was straight, and he quickly turned all kinds of thoughts, and then said slowly: "If the emperor only wants to promote the rank, he will rely on the old example of appointing Fang Bin and others at the beginning, not to mention the Tongzheng Department or the Taifu Temple, even the squire will give it directly." Therefore, this reward does not have to be limited to grades. Before the thunder and fire fell from the sky, the emperor once asked Jian Shangshu Jin Shangshu and other twenty-six people to patrol the world, and now the military affairs of Xuanfu are tight, just let Zhang Yue hone it, let him patrol Xuanfu to prepare military affairs, and the rest of the meaning is enough. ”
Is this okay?
Jin Youzi was simply dumbfounded by Yang Rong's understatement, and when he woke up, he was amazed. Yang Shiqi didn't expect his colleagues to think of this, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that it was appropriate, and naturally he would not raise any objections. When the three of them went to the Qianqing Palace to invite them, the emperor who was careless at the beginning suddenly showed a satisfied expression, and then agreed without saying a word.
Although Hai Shou didn't know that such an episode was performed in Jingshizhong, after he announced the decree, he still said to Zhang Yue with a smile: "With the five-grade official to inspect the Xuanfu Heavy Land, Lord Xiao Zhang has a heavy burden!" ”
Zhang Yue smiled on his face, but he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. The official position remains the same, the power is great, and in short, the so-called work is far more than the salary, probably nothing more.
