Chapter 273: Ping Liangbo
Qu Shiyun said loudly: "Emperor Taizu of this dynasty has a saying: on meritorious deeds, the country's norms. Since the beginning of the Hongwu Dynasty, after hundreds of years of military merit rewards and punishments are different, but the miracle merit, the first merit, and the three kinds of rewards, the big victory, the small victory two kinds of victory has been continued, according to this example, who can bravely climb first, destroy the front, and have a score that is on the miraculous merit, ranked first; Those who serve with the army and win the first rank can be listed as the first meritorious; If you can kill the enemy afterwards to get the first level, you can stand side by side. ”
He looked at Wang Yingxiong and Wang Huan who were kneeling on the ground, and continued with a smile: "And this time, Master Wang can connect Sichuan and Gansu provinces and recover hundreds of thousands of people, which can be described as a great victory. Wang Huanju is the position of the general soldier, controlled by the king bachelor, can be trapped in battle to kill the enemy, behead countless people, and also win a big victory. ”
At the end, Qu Shiyun bowed long and said to Yongli: "How to reward the reward, after the imperial history meeting, please ask the emperor to judge!" ”
Yongli smiled, took out a few copies of the fold from his sleeve, and said happily: "No need! The great victory in the northwest, there have been Jinyiwei, the Imperial Court of the Imperial Court and the Sichuan Province and the Shaanxi Province Imperial History Folds here, and the Ministry of War also has a detailed explanation, all of which are true, and I believe it! If you wait until the imperial history meeting, you will delay the time in vain, delay the time for meritorious deeds, and inevitably chill the hearts of loyal and brave soldiers. ”
As soon as the words fell, a eunuch in a python robe trotted up from the high platform, holding a scroll in both hands, judging by its color, it should be something like a yellow holy decree.
Yongli's move was full of surprise, whether it was the princes and ministers sitting on Xiudun, or Wang Yingxiong and Wang Huan who were kneeling on the ground, they were all surprised and dazed, dumbfounded, no one made a sound for a while, and the banquet hall fell into silence.
Because this is too abnormal, too unexpected, but where the imperial court rewards military merits, there are rules, generally must be verified by the Ministry of War first, 4466 take stock of the entire battle situation clearly, who led the soldiers who went to the battle, name, age, official position one by one, and then how many heads were beheaded, what kind of victory, how much they lost, but also to accurately figure out, form a complete report, submit it to the cabinet, the cabinet will then seal it to the Imperial Procuratorate and the six departments of the imperial history, the imperial historians carefully examine it, confirm whether there are any false omissions, if there is, immediately impeached, If not, return the report to the Cabinet again and write down the results of your own inspection.
After the cabinet got it, the scholars finally put forward specific reward opinions, submitted to the emperor, the emperor waved his pen, and the imperial approval was sealed, and this process was completed, and it was announced in public in the court, and the scenery was rewarded.
Yongli has always come out like this, completely subverting the norm, everyone was stunned, some of them were clever, and immediately looked towards the first shop Qu Shiyun, but saw that the old man was also standing there with a confused face, looking at Yongli like a piece of wood, and immediately understood, this matter even the first shop did not know.
Wang Huan knelt on the ground, his heart was racing, although he came through time, he didn't know much about the rules of this era, but along the way, Wang Yingxiong was afraid of him and told him a lot of systems in this regard, so Wang Huan also knew how to announce the reward, and he should not be as hasty as Yongli.
There must be demons when things are unusual, Wang Huan frowned slightly, looked up at Emperor Yongli, and vaguely felt that this seemingly cowardly and incompetent emperor seemed to suddenly put on an impenetrable veil.
"Wang Kun, make a decree!" Emperor Yongli said with a smile to the python-robed eunuch.
The eunuch Wang Kun, the eunuch of the master of ceremonies, bowed deeply, said yes, then stood up, took two steps forward, stood on the edge of the high platform, glanced at Wang Yingxiong and Wang Huan who were kneeling on the ground, raised his hands high, and slowly unfolded the roll of yellow silk.
The banquet was still in a deathly silence, no one reacted, only the night wind blew, rolling up the leaves on all sides, and even the sound of yellow silk unfolding seemed to be faintly audible.
Wang Kun's gaze moved downward, fell on the silk surface, his lips opened slightly, and he wanted to read it out.
At this moment, suddenly accompanied by a loud shout, a person suddenly flashed out of the banquet and said to Wang Kun: "Stop!" ”
This loud shout immediately attracted everyone's attention, and all the officials looked sideways, who was so bold that he dared to interrupt when the lieutenant official read the holy decree?
The person who flashed out, dressed in a scarlet robe and rhino belt official uniform, and a brocade J was embroidered on his chest.
What did he stand up for?
Wang Huan looked at Wang Yingxiong, Wang Yingxiong rolled his eyes, he was completely at a loss, since Emperor Yongli wanted to reward him on the spot, everything was no longer a process that Wang Yingxiong was familiar with.
In Emperor Yongli's eyes, a trace of hatred was fleeting, his hands trembled slightly, pressed the imperial table, tried his best to control his emotions, and it was not easy for people to notice that he was stuck in the corner of the table with his nails, trapping two deep marks.
Wang Kun tilted his head slightly and looked at Emperor Yongli, and then looked at Yan Qiheng angrily.
Yan Qiheng didn't seem to see Wang Kun's eyes, standing in the empty field, giving a salute to Emperor Yongli first, and then raising his head and saying loudly: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that if you don't have the imperial court, you will announce the reward on the spot, which is inconsistent with the ceremony, and violates the rules set by the first emperor, and will definitely trap Your Majesty in unfilial piety. ”
Yixi's words were straightforward, Yan Qiheng's expression was calm, without the slightest fear, looking at Emperor Yongli's eyes, and even a little arrogant, so that Wang Kun's mouth opened a few times, but he didn't dare to read even a word.
Emperor Yongli's face was red and white, changing continuously, biting his lip for a long time without making a sound, after a long time, he exhaled and said slowly: "What Yan Aiqing said is extremely true, but the priority of the matter, this reward is not immutable, from the Chenghua Dynasty to the Chongzhen Dynasty, I don't know how many times it has changed, I am also to soothe the hearts of meritorious officials, there is nothing wrong, right?" ”
This already had some negotiating tone, but Yan Qiheng didn't give an inch, simply knelt down, and said with a pause: "The gift is not profaned, Your Majesty, this case cannot be opened!" ”
Immediately, more than a dozen officials flashed out from the banquet, knelt down behind Yan Qiheng at the same time, and shouted in unison: "Your Majesty, the ministers and others seconded Master Yan, this case cannot be opened!" ”
The voices of more than ten people echoed in the sky above the banquet, like bursts of swords, stabbing directly into Emperor Yongli's body, stabbing Emperor Yongli's young face pale, his lips trembled, and he was speechless for a while.
Wang Huan frowned deeply, and he had already noticed that this reward seemed to have evolved into a qualitative one, not as simple as just giving himself and Wang Yingxiong a reward, there must be a deep meaning behind it.
"Ridiculous! It is natural and righteous for the emperor to reward meritorious ministers, how can he tolerate such impatience! ”
"The minister seconded the proposal! The emperor is the lord of the country, when and where to reward the courtiers, but in a thought, how can he come to the court to discuss the shackles? ”
"That's right! The minister also seconded the proposal, the imperial court, only need to find out the truth of the military merits, you can talk about the meritorious deeds, now there are the Metropolitan Inspectorate, the Imperial History Road and the military department, it is enough to identify, the emperor can of course be rewarded on the spot. ”
For a while, more than ten officials stood up, knelt on the ground and retorted loudly, and the officials headed by Yan Qiheng who came out first separated Wang Yingxiong and Wang Huan, kneeling side by side and arguing.
Of course, Yan Qiheng and others will not show weakness, those who are born as officials are powerful, you come and go, quarrel with each other, noisy and noisy, and turn a happy and high-end royal celebration banquet into a vegetable market for scolding.
Emperor Yongli's face turned from white to red, and then turned purple, obviously the anger had reached the extreme, and he couldn't bear it, and slapped the imperial table, and there was a crisp sound of "pop", which shook the table full of delicacies.
However, this slap finally stopped the noise below, and the ministers on both sides raised their heads and looked at the angry emperor.
Emperor Yongli gasped, his eyes widened angrily, and he gritted his teeth and looked at the group of ministers below, it seemed that he wanted to go down and kill a few people in person, but he was forced to hold back and sit still.
At this moment, Shoupu Qu Shiyun, who had been standing quietly on the side, took a step forward and spoke.
"The emperor is the Son of Heaven, the Son of Heaven is angry, and the blood flows thousands of miles, not to mention this small Shuiyue Palace." Qu Shiyun spoke unhurriedly, his tone was light but dignified: "Colleagues, where is the Son of Heaven arguing here?" Are you really not afraid of Jinyiwei's stick? ”
As soon as these words came out, Wang Kun immediately glanced at both sides very cooperatively, and a group of brocade guards dressed in flying fish costumes appeared around the banquet as if they had emerged from the ground, their hands pressed on the handle of the knife at their waists, and their faces stood expressionless.
A solemn atmosphere immediately churned in the night sky.
Everyone was silent, even Yan Qiheng looked at Qu Shiyun fiercely, looked around again, and shut up.
Emperor Yongli finally let out a long breath, leaned back into the chair, and nodded at Wang Kun.
Wang Kun seized the time, unfolded the silk scroll, and read it in a machine-gun-like voice: "Fengtian carries the emperor, and the edict says: Since I succeeded to the throne, the society has been overturned, the land has passed, the Hulu are raging, and the people are struggling to make a living. Every time I think about this, I can't sleep at night, I want to work hard, restore my rivers and mountains, but there is no unscrupulous minister, and chase Kyushu, I recently heard that Wang Yingxiong, the chief soldier Wang Huan, in Sichuan and Shaanxi, the elite soldiers are repeated, and the triumphant song is played, I am very happy, for the meritorious ministers, the ambition of the strong man, the special reward: Wang Yingxiong Jin Jianji Temple University Scholar, into the prince and Taifu, the governor of Sichuan and Shaanxi provinces, the jurisdiction of Sichuan and Shaanxi should be soldiers and horses, and the reward is a thousand taels of silver. ”
After a pause, a strange look flashed on Wang Kun's face, and he continued to read: "Wang Huan, the chief soldier of Kuizhou, hangs the seal of the general of Pingbei, enters the capital to command Tongzhi, seals Pingliangbo, rewards five hundred taels of silver, and supervises the general army of Sichuan and Shaanxi. ”
Then he obviously swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and continued: "I hope that the two Aiqing will continue to work hard, live up to my expectations, and do things loyally." Chin this! ”
The whole venue was quiet again.
