readx; In the imperial study, the emperor and the civil and military people were discussing how to deal with the affairs of King Wuwei's henchmen, and finally when he came down, Emperor Jianhui said that I knew it, and it was gone. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

After Zhao Jingyu glanced around at everyone, he said to everyone: "After the imperial court went through this chaos, both the Southern and Northern Ya forbidden armies have suffered a lot of trauma, especially the Southern Ya Forbidden Army. After this battle, the Nanya Forbidden Army has become a system, and I think that for the time being, General Shi temporarily replaced the General of the Nanya Forbidden Army, recruited soldiers, and rebuilt the Nanya Forbidden Army. ”

Shi Kaishan stood up and kowtowed to thank him: "Thank the emperor for his grace, and Weichen will definitely live up to His Majesty's grace." ”

Nodding, Zhao Jingyu suddenly said again: "Now that the major event is over, the meritorious people should also be rewarded." I will reward you for your contributions. However, what I want to discuss with you at the moment is how to deal with the reward of Zhang Cheng, the general of the Northern Ya Forbidden Army. ”

Xiao Zhongchang stood up at this time, and took the initiative to ask, "I don't know what Your Majesty wants?" ”

"This time, the imperial court suffered such a catastrophe, thanks to Zhang Cheng's efforts to turn the tide. not only saved the life of the first emperor, but also assisted me to sit on the throne safely, so naturally I should be rewarded! It's just that now that he is ranked as the general of the third grade, and he is in charge of the Northern Ya Forbidden Army, he is in a high position, and I am a little hesitant, so I specially propose it and discuss it with the secretaries. Zhao Jingyu said.

Xiao Zhongchang nodded, quite agreeing, and said, "What Your Majesty said is very true. Now Zhang Cheng is only thirty years old, but he has repeatedly made military exploits, and he will definitely lead troops in the future, and his people will inevitably make great military exploits for the imperial court. That being the case, in the opinion of the old minister, didn't Jizhou let Yang Wenzhao act as his agent before, it is better to entitle him and let him lead Jizhou from afar, I don't know what His Majesty thinks? ”

In fact, the Great Chu Dynasty has always followed a set of state system of the Great Qian Empire, in which the king is the head, and it is generally borne by the emperor's relatives, and it is divided into five categories, such as duke, marquis, uncle, son, and male; Because of the chaos of war now, there are many people in the army who have made meritorious contributions and rewarded marquis, so in this regard, the title is divided into three classes: states, counties and counties. In this way, the division of titles is much more rigorous.

Zhao Jingyu stood up, wandered left and right, and after thinking for a while, he said categorically: "Okay, according to what Zai Fu said, Zhang Cheng will be appointed as the uncle of Jizhou, and he will lead the Jizhou assassin from afar; During the reign of the first emperor, the reward for him will not be changed, and everything will be as usual. Lao Zaifu, I'll take care of this matter. ”

During the reign of the first emperor, he gave Zhang Cheng the post of assassin in Jizhou, and also let him lead 30,000 troops to take charge of the military and government of Jizhou. Now that Zhang Cheng has made new contributions and the new emperor has ascended the throne, it is naturally even more impossible to deprive him of his powers, so it will not be a promotion, but a derogation.

Xiao Zhong bowed down to receive the order, but Zhou Bingyan stood up at this time, his expression became solemn, and he asked: "Your Majesty, now that the southern border is not settled, although the more than 300,000 troops have retreated to the localities, there are still local guards, the southern Sedum army, many armies, and the military salaries and grass of these hundreds of thousands of troops are not a small expense. And the northern grasslands heard that now that there are soldiers in all directions, sooner or later they will move south and invade our Dachu border. And our army is bound to go north to defend against the enemy, and if we want to go north to defend against the enemy, we must first unify the south and solve the trouble of internal troubles. ”

"What should I do with Aiqing's intentions?" When Zhao Jingyu heard this, his brows furrowed, and after thinking for a long time, he asked.

"Minister...... There is no good way to offer His Majesty. Zhou Bingyan said.

"Well, I see. That's it, Aiqing, step back first. Old Jaesuke stayed. Zhao Jingyu waved his hand and told them to retreat first.

"The ministers should retreat....." Du Hongwen and the others all retreated.

Out of the imperial study, Shi Kaishan and Zhou Bingyan discussed and left, but Lin You pulled Dai Xuantian and asked: "Brother Dai, several of us have given Your Majesty ideas, but Your Majesty did not express your position in the end, what does Your Majesty mean by this?" ”

Dai Xuanqi glanced at Lin You and said indifferently: "Your Majesty today is naturally no longer the Majesty of the past, and the thoughts in his heart are not something you can or I can speculate about." However, in my opinion, Your Majesty already has a way to deal with it, so you and I should not interfere too much. Your Majesty is the King of Wisdom, and has his own way. He patted Lin You on the shoulder, and after finishing speaking, he took the lead and left.

Lin You didn't know what to do, so he chased after him again......

In the imperial study, Zhao Jingyu wandered left and right in the room, and asked: "Lao Zaifu, what General Zhou said just now is the most important thing at present, when the first emperor was in power, because of the reason of King Wuwei, he has been fighting more than once, and my Great Chu Dynasty has long been beaten to the point that the treasury is poor, and the people are miserable. Now our army is at the border, but it is a huge consumption, in the eyes of Lao Zaifu, what can I do about it? ”

Xiao Zhongchang sat firmly like a mountain, he beat his back, and after doing it for a while, Xiao Zhongchang already felt the pain in his back, he thought about it, and said with a smile: "Even the general who often leads troops outside, he still doesn't know what to do, and the old minister is above the court, and he is still too busy to deal with it, and he is even more incompetent for military affairs." If Your Majesty wants to govern the army, he must ask Zhang Cheng. However, in the opinion of the old minister, since the national strength is not supported, it is necessary to repair politics internally to reassure the people. Only when the people's hearts are stable can they farm and weave with peace of mind, so that the imperial court can collect taxes and enrich the treasury, so that the treasury can be full and the national strength will be greatly increased. Specifically, the old minister still needs to think about it carefully. ”

Zhao Jingyu nodded, feeling that what Xiao Zhongchang said was very true. He said: "Lao Zaifu is worthy of being the heart of the first emperor, and he has thousands of good policies in his heart, and he is really the pillar of the country." Since this is the case, I will bother Lao Zaifu to go down and work hard, and write a note carefully, and I will take a look. ”

"Obey ....."

......................................

Zhang Cheng walked out of the palace, Tie Zhu, Zhang Boss and others had already withdrawn from the palace, and the responsibility of guarding the palace had long been handed over to the Yulin Army, and at this time there were only a few personal guards around him to follow him. As soon as he left the palace gate, he looked at the city gate behind him, and thought to himself: no matter what happened in the palace, it had nothing to do with him anymore. This place is really not as comfortable as Northland County, and it is not as comfortable as Xincheng.

Inside and outside the palace, there was intrigue and bloody wind everywhere, and he could be regarded as seeing through it, and suddenly felt that it was really not interesting here, so it was better to go back to Beidi County as soon as possible. Anyway, he can be regarded as repaying His Majesty's kindness, Zhao Hui also committed suicide, this imperial city, there is nothing to be nostalgic for, what are you still doing here? Well, it's settled, and after making up his mind, Zhang Cheng feels that he seems to be much more relaxed.

On the way back to Zhang's Mansion, I unconsciously walked to the gate of Jingzhao Mansion. Looking at the three big characters of Jingzhao Mansion on the top of the yamen, Zhang Cheng seemed to be stunned for a long time, before he came back to his senses and was about to leave, when suddenly a voice came from behind: "Since you are here, why don't you go in and sit?" ”

Zhang Cheng turned around and glanced at it, the ice muscles and jade bones, the appearance like a fairy, and the bewitching figure will always make Zhang Cheng remember the five inside.

When several guards first saw this woman, they were all dumbfounded, completely amazed by the woman in front of them. stared intently at the woman stupidly. It wasn't until Zhang Cheng coughed a few times that he came to his senses and quickly lowered his head.

Zhang Cheng waved his hand and explained to a few guards that they were waiting for him in front. Scratching his head, Zhang Cheng said: "Hehe, my brothers have never seen a fairy-like woman like you, Miss Fang is not surprised." Hey. I was about to go home, and I had a lot of things to do, so I didn't go in to pay a visit. ”

"Huh. Slippery. yes. You are now a meritorious king, and you will inevitably have to rise one step higher, where can you still look at this small four-grade Jingzhao Mansion Yamen? Hmph, don't go in and pull it down. I'm leaving! "Yes, the person who came was Fang Ningyu, who had just come back from shopping for goods outside, and her personal maid Xiaoyue was still by her side. In the end, it's like a negative posture to go.

"How does Miss Fang's words sound sour, and how mean is it? I don't know where I offended the girl? Zhang Cheng was puzzled and asked.

"Forget it, let's not talk about that. Now that the new emperor has ascended the throne, you have made great contributions to the court, and you will inevitably receive heavy rewards, tell me quickly, what kind of official does Your Majesty plan to crown you? Fang Ningyu asked curiously.

"I don't know yet, but it might be a knighthood or something. After all, I am already ranked in the third rank, and in the top, I should be ranked in the third duke, which is not a good thing for the imperial court. Then Zhang Cheng waved his hand, and Zhang Cheng said: "Forget it, what do you say about this, it's none of my business." I'm going back to Northland tomorrow. There's nothing more to be nostalgic for this place. I wouldn't want to go back here this time if I could. ”

"Why?" Fang Ningyu was surprised when she heard this, and hurriedly asked.

"In this change in the capital, I almost killed Zhao Hui with my own hands, this benefactor who gave me the grace of heaven and earth, for me, it was really not my intention. Even if Zhao Hui wants to kill me, I'm just more to protect myself. I didn't even think about killing him. At the beginning, I asked Feng Jingyu to return Zhou Wuliang to Zhao Hui, but in fact, what existed was also the intention of breaking off friendship. But in the end, all of this is beyond my control. Now, when I think about it, I also think that the capital is not a good place. Hmph, besides, being an official is not my preference. I'm not a big one. Zhang Cheng was bored for a long time, and then looked at Fang Ningyu's concerned eyes, he suddenly felt that he should be honest with her, and besides, there was nothing to hide. Let's be honest.

Hearing Zhang Cheng's frank and straightforward words, Fang Ningyu could also understand the torment in his heart. After thinking for a long time, she suddenly asked, "Then Your Majesty will let you be your Northland County Warden in peace?" You have the talent to go through the heavens and the earth, and if Your Majesty wants to dominate the world in the future, you will definitely need your help if you want to dominate the world and resist the enemy outside Guanshan. If you want to retreat to the countryside, Your Majesty will not let you retreat. ”

"So, what about you?" Zhang Cheng looked at her for a long time and mustered up the courage to ask such a sentence. In his opinion, Yi Fang Ningyu is so beautiful and has such a family, I don't know if he can afford him Zhang Cheng. Fundamentally speaking, no matter how big an official Zhang Cheng is, how many soldiers and horses he commands, and how much power he has, he can't get rid of his inferiority complex that he is a small person. Especially when he came over, he was a little person who suffered from the warmth and coldness of the low-level characters. In fact, Zhang Cheng didn't know that with his current strength and back. Jing, as long as he wants, there will be all kinds of flowers like jade backs. The beautiful woman with a good scene is willing to marry him.

"Me?" Fang Ningyu was blushed by Zhang Cheng's sudden words, but he still looked back at him with burning eyes, looking at the sincerity in his eyes, Fang Ningyu thought for a while, blushed but plucked up the courage to say: "Where you are, I am willing to go with you." ”

As soon as he heard this, Zhang Cheng was very excited in his heart, staring at her for a long time, Zhang Cheng slowly calmed down, he thought about it, sorted out his thoughts, and said: "If you follow me, you may not have such a peaceful life anymore." Maybe they will follow me from place to place and suffer a lot! Have you figured it out? ”

"Naturally......" Fang Ningyu said without hesitation.

"Then, you come with me. Let's go back to Northland County together. Zhang Cheng turned around, wandered left and right for a while, and suddenly turned around and said to Ning Yu.

Fang Ningyu hesitated, she looked at Zhang Cheng's eyes full of emotion, and asked: "My Ningyu is willing to follow you to the ends of the earth, without regrets." But are you really ready for it? Don't forget, you still have many brothers who follow you, and if you go, you will give up glory and wealth, and you will also give up the opportunity to give them supreme glory and glory. Those brothers were born and died for you, and some of them even gave their lives, so at this time, you left the capital and gave up everything. Is it really fair to them? Perhaps, your brother is willing to do this, but have you ever thought that the result of their life is really to follow you to the countryside? ”

Fang Ningyu's words were tantamount to pouring a basin of cold water on Zhang Cheng's hot heart. Suddenly he fell into an ice cave. As Fang Ningyu said sentence by sentence, he slowly lowered his head, and he was stuffy for a long time, but he didn't speak. After a long time, he raised his head again and said helplessly: "You are right. If I did, I would be too irresponsible to my brothers who were so wounded in the bloody battles I fought for me; I can't explain to those brothers who gave up their lives for my Zhang Cheng's words. Miss Fang's words let me be taught. After bowing, he turned around and was about to leave.

Fang Ningyu shouted: "Zhang Cheng! My Ning Yu is a person who dares to love and hate, no matter when, Fang Ning Yu will be waiting for you! ”

When Zhang Cheng heard this, he was shocked. His heart trembled, for him, this sentence was more precious than a bounty marquis. He didn't look back, but said categorically: "I will definitely marry you Mingmei, and marry you in a dignified manner!" After saying this, Zhang Cheng left.

Looking at the back that was gradually moving away, Fang Ningyu muttered, "I believe you ......"
