Chapter 347: Glory
The soldier Lang Zhong Xu Eryi waited at the city gate.
Fan Jingwen was very surprised, this is not an ordinary courtesy, as soon as Xu Er arrived at the gate of the city to greet him, it represented the imperial court, if there was no emperor's will, he would never do this.
Xu Eryi's attitude was very respectful, including the sergeants of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division guarding the city gate, with a look of reverence on their faces, daring to be a big hero.
According to the rules, after entering the city gate, it is necessary to dismount, no matter where the sergeant is, when he comes to the capital to meet the emperor, he cannot gallop in the capital without the permission of the imperial court. But Xu Eryi specifically said that the soldiers of the Jiangning battalion did not need to dismount and entered the capital directly.
With doubts, the soldiers of the Jiangning battalion entered the capital, and of course, Zhu Xianxin and others in the middle of the team, sitting on the carriage, also entered the city gate.
The sergeants of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division were neatly lined up inside the city gate, and they came to assist the Jiangning battalion and watch over the prisoners of the Liukou.
Xu Eryi directly told Fan Jingwen, Su Tiancheng and others that the emperor was waiting at the noon gate with the civil and military officials above the sixth rank in the capital to greet the triumphant Jiangning battalion soldiers.
Fan Jingwen, Su Tiancheng and the others, their faces were a little pale, and their feelings were definitely different.
Fan Jingwen was grateful, feeling that the emperor's grace was vast, and Su Tiancheng was thinking of being low-key, this time, there was a lot of uproar, even if he wanted to be low-key, it was unlikely, and the emperor put on such a posture, which showed that the Jiangning battalion had become the most relied on army of the imperial court, and it was impossible to continue to stay in Jiangning County.
Since the emperor was waiting at the noon gate, where did everyone dare to delay and hurry away.
When approaching the noon gate, there are sergeants on both sides of the street, and it is forbidden to harass idle people.
When it was still two miles away from the noon gate. Fan Jingwen resolutely dismounted, he is a typical Confucian disciple, he pays attention to etiquette, if he rides to the noon gate like this, it will be disrespectful.
Su Tiancheng also thought the same way, and he remembered it very clearly. Nian Qianyao of the Qing Dynasty, fought a big victory, and when he returned to the capital, he was extremely arrogant, and the emperor came to greet him, and he did not dismount until he was in front of the emperor, which caused the emperor's dissatisfaction, plus other factors. In the end, he died.
Imperial power is supreme and inviolable, and since we live in this era, we must always pay attention to it.
Zhu Youzhen, who was waiting at the noon gate, had already been informed, and Fan Jingwen, Su Tiancheng and others had already dismounted.
He was very satisfied, it seemed that Jiang Ningying knew the rules.
The soldiers of the Jiangning battalion all arrived at the noon gate.
When Zhu Youzhen came out. Everyone fell to their knees.
Kneeling in front of them were Fan Jingwen, Su Tiancheng, and Sun Chuanting. There are also Zhu Xianxin, Chunping, Wang Furong and Liu Rushi.
"Long live the emperor, long live, long live, long live......"
The officers and men of the Jiangning battalion are first-class in battle, and when they shout, their voices and momentum are also first-class.
Zhu Youzhen couldn't help but laugh.
He also puffed up his breath and spoke loudly.
"You love your family. Soldiers and soldiers are ......"
Many civil and military officials in the imperial court have hardly seen the soldiers of the Jiangning battalion, but when they see it today, they are almost all shocked by the momentum of the soldiers of the Jiangning battalion, no wonder the Jiangning battalion can be 20,000 people. Almost more than 70,000 people were wiped out.
Taihe Temple.
Zhu Youzhen's face was always smiling.
Fan Jingwen, Su Tiancheng, Sun Chuanting, and Jiangning Ying Qianhu and Deputy Qianhu all entered the main hall.
Regarding the reward of the officers and men of the Jiangning battalion, in the imperial court, all parties have different opinions, and in the end, they still focus on material rewards in accordance with the emperor's wishes; as for the matter of promotion, it is not valid for the time being, and it is impossible to transfer most of the officers because the officers and men of the Jiangning battalion have made meritorious contributions. Some people have made such suggestions, but they have been reprimanded.
When the decree was pronounced, the people fell to their knees again.
The Jiangning battalion was rewarded with 500,000 taels of silver, and the officers of more than 1,000 households were rewarded with 1,000 taels of silver each, and the fallen soldiers were given a subsidy of 10 taels of silver from the imperial court.
Su Tiancheng was very sad when he heard it, it was a hard work, it was such a small reward, but the emperor had already tried his best, who didn't know that the emperor was poor.
After the decree was read, Zhu Youzhen finally spoke.
"The Jiangning battalion has hit the Liukou and defended the central capital Fengyang, this is a huge merit, I am very pleased, I hope you will work together to revitalize my Ming ......"
Su Tiancheng didn't listen to these procedural words, he thought of a very practical problem, Zhu Xianxin is more than four months pregnant, and it must be unrealistic to return to Jiangning County, and he must stay in the capital, but the matter of this residence is very troublesome, not to mention the temporary purchase of a mansion in the capital, which consumes a lot of silver, not to mention, he may not be able to find a good place, but he can't always live in an official post or an inn, which makes no sense. Chunping is also pregnant and needs careful care.
Thinking about the mess in his head, Su Tiancheng was a little distracted.
"Su Aiqing, what do you think?"
Su Tiancheng's body trembled, and he found that many ministers of civil and military affairs were looking at him.
"Back to the emperor, the minister is distracted, and I hope the emperor will forgive his sins."
"Hehe, what a crime, this time to exterminate the Liukou and protect the central capital, Su Aiqing has made great contributions."
"The ministers don't dare, this is the result of the hard work of the soldiers of the Jiangning battalion, the soldiers are desperately guarding the central capital, loyal to the emperor, and will never allow the rogue to run rampant."
"Okay, that's right, by the way, there is one thing, I almost forgot, Su Aiqing's family has arrived in the capital, this mansion is a big thing, the household department has already chosen a place, it is not far from the noon gate, and you can move in today."
"The Lord's Order is grateful."
Su Tiancheng heard it clearly, and hurriedly knelt down, the emperor gave him a mansion, which solved a big problem.
"Su Aiqing, you deserve it."
After the dispersal of the dynasty, Su Tiancheng followed Fan Jingwen and walked out of the Taihe Palace.
A eunuch came running in a puff of smoke.
"Master Su, bring your family to the palace tomorrow afternoon, and the emperor and the queen will summon you."
The officials of the household department, with Su Tiancheng and others, went directly to the mansion given by the emperor.
Su Tiancheng really opened his eyes this time, this mansion is very big, in comparison, it is almost the same as the Jin Wang's Mansion, inside the mansion, pavilions, small bridges and flowing water, everything is available, this is by no means an ordinary mansion. But he didn't dare to ask, since the emperor gave it to him, then live, anyway, this mansion is not given for nothing, from today on, at least Zhu Xianxin will live in this mansion, to put it mildly, it can be regarded as a hostage.
As for the soldiers of the Jiangning battalion, they were temporarily stationed in the Beijing battalion.
Before he had time to clean up, Xu Er came to visit, and then, Fu Youliang, Weng Tongzhang and others came, these people are his mentors, so they must be polite.
When Chen Yutai and Wu Weiye came to visit, Su Tiancheng was still a little strange.
The two are still in Guozijian, one is revision, the other is editing, more than two years have passed, and they have not been able to enter the six parts, or they are released.
When Xiong Zijian and Deng Hui came to visit, Su Tiancheng was very happy.
Deng Hui insisted on participating in the township examination, although he was still given the identity of a lifter, but he still wanted to prove his talent and learning, and he studied hard in Guozijian, so this time he was still a high school student, waiting for the examination after the beginning of the year.
When it came to Jiangning Ying, the eyes of the two were full of yearning, especially Xiong Zijian.
Su Tiancheng faintly had a hint of feeling, it seemed that Xiong Zijian might be going back to Jiangning Camp.
When Zhang Pu came to visit, Su Tiancheng was a little caught off guard.
Entering the living room, before Su Tiancheng could speak, Zhang Pu suddenly knelt down.
Zhang Pu is also a jinshi, Su Tiancheng can't afford such a big gift, so he hurriedly helped Zhang Pu up.
Zhang Pu almost choked up this speech, it turned out that after being imprisoned, he was discouraged, felt that there was no hope, and he didn't expect that soon after, he was released, and saw the emperor, the emperor told him that it was Su Tiancheng and the Zhongxing Society who saved him, Zhang Pu, who had experienced too much turmoil, at this time, completely began to think, the theory he had always adhered to, and had always maintained the scholars and gentry and wealthy households, at this time, there was no trace, on the contrary, it was Su Tiancheng and the Zhongxing Society who saved him.
The achievements of the Jiangning battalion deeply shocked him.
Thinking that by Chen Qiyu's side, as the most important staff, at the critical moment, without the right opinion, he had compassion for the Liukou, causing such a big trouble, if it wasn't for the Jiangning battalion to defend Zhongdu, he would be an unforgivable crime.
Therefore, he has been waiting in the capital, just waiting to see Su Tiancheng.
Zhang Pu said his true thoughts, disbanded the Restoration Society, and followed Su Tiancheng to do things.
Su Tiancheng in turn persuaded Zhang Pu that there was no need to dissolve the Restoration Society, but in terms of relevant theories and understandings, he communicated more with the Zhongxing Society, and strived to unify the understanding of scholars and gentry and wealthy households, so that they could know that while enjoying the favor, they must also make contributions, as for Zhang Pu himself, he can also join the Zhongxing Society.
Su Tiancheng also said that the Zhongxing Society continues to grow and develop, and he will suggest to the emperor that the Zhongxing Society be set up in the capital to publicize it in many ways and unify the understanding of readers to the greatest extent.
Su Tiancheng wrote a letter to introduce Zhang Pu to the Zhongxing Society.
When he received the letter, Zhang Pu left tears in his eyes.
In one day, he has experienced too many things, Su Tiancheng is a little excited, however, he thinks more, or to meet the emperor and the queen tomorrow, a lot of words, tomorrow will definitely be said, this is the best opportunity, including the arrangements for Jiang Ningying and himself, must be clearly put forward, he still does not want to enter the capital, he can't do things in the capital, he is too young, his qualifications are insufficient, and the civil and military ministers in the court are not simple.
When the time to exterminate the rogues and protect the capital, it will slowly pass as time passes, and when the excitement passes, everything will return to calm. (To be continued.) For mobile phone users, please go to read. )
