Chapter 610: Meritorious service is naturally rewarded
readx;
The events of that night, Liu Chengfeng has a clear memory, only knows that the woman was crying, said a lot of words, the butter lamp in the tent went out, at that time, it seems to smell a strange smell of butter burning and the smell of musk mixed together, in the cowhide tent, sleepless all night. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
This woman ......
In the slightly bumpy carriage, Liu Chengfeng showed a somewhat incomprehensible strange expression, in fact, he still can't see through it, after that night, he is still wondering what tricks this woman wants to play, or what intentions she has.
It's just that later, it seems that nothing happened, Li Ruofan didn't even send them, but just sent a prince to send them off.
But no matter what, at least this woman has temporarily left Liu Chengfeng's sight, Liu Chengfeng has a sense of relief, only occasionally when he calms down, he always feels that there is a lingering shadow in his mind.
After entering Datong and staying overnight, everyone immediately changed into fast horses and moved quickly towards Jingshi.
Capital...... It's finally here......
The closer you get here, along the galloping road, seeing the familiar prosperous scene in this pass, Liu Chengfeng has a feeling of being separated from the world, only people who have been out of the plug will have an extremely strong sense of belonging, Liu Chengfeng suddenly felt that the huge wine pan, and the shouting of the accent of the south and the north that day, the familiar and somewhat unfamiliar attic, and the clothes of the left, are so cute.
Even to an unknown place, he rode his horse away from the gallop road, stopped on a small slope to restrain his horse, and pointed to Qian Fangyao who was roaring behind him, and pointed in the direction of the Beijing Division, and said heroically: "Ming said, Ming said that we can go back to Beijing, and when we return there, it is the time to reward meritorious deeds. ”
In fact, Liu Chengfeng's guess is not wrong, on the reward of meritorious deeds, has become a problem for the imperial court to fight for red faces, this time Liu Chengfeng's credit is a certainty, in the early dynasty, Zhu Youzhu specially asked someone to read out Liu Chengfeng's recital, and then, the hall was in an uproar.
If it is Liu Chengfeng's past exploits, it can still make people find an excuse to criticize, what kills good and riskes merit, what refers to the deer as a horse, frames others as anti-thieves, etc., but this time none of the above reasons are valid, because soon, the national letter of the Monan Zhubu was transmitted, and the content of the national letter is the most intuitive evidence of Liu Chengfeng's contribution this time.
This matter, Liu Chengfeng did it, he went deep into the desert, assisted the lord of the king of Saikan to obtain the military power of the Mo Nan tribes, provoked the relationship between the Khan Court and the Mo Nan tribes, the war between the two sides was imminent, and the Ming Dynasty had enough time to reap the benefits of the fisherman.
After a great achievement, the next question is how to reward it.
After a burst of jubilation, the ministers immediately became cautious again, and everyone could see that Liu Chengfeng's contribution did have a far-reaching impact on the Ming Dynasty, at least to ensure that for many years, there would be no incidents similar to Pingyuan Fort at the border of the Ming Dynasty. The problem is not here, the crux of the problem is that this time it is not a scholar, nor a Hanlin, nor a civil official, this is a notorious brocade guard, a martial artist.
So when Zhu Youzhu was asking in the hall how to seal the reward, the entire court was silent.
If it was in the two Jin Dynasty, the family would be a real nobleman, because in that era, it was the master of the gate valve world. But in the Ming Dynasty, scholars were aristocrats, they controlled everything, acted in military and political affairs, controlled public opinion, and even held the history pen of Qianqiu in the palm of their hands.
What these people need is to master everything, and the teachings of the saints can persuade farmers, govern the country, control water, and even use soldiers. The affairs of the world should naturally be taken care of by them, just as whether it is Liaodong or Xuanfu, it is not the martial artists who really control the military power, but their kind, and all the credit should naturally be obtained by their families.
But now that Liu Chengfeng has broken this strange circle, everyone is a little wrong in retrospect, Liu Chengfeng, a bastard, actually fucking stretched out his hand to everyone's traditional industry.
This one kills a thousand knives.
The envoy was originally taken over by the civil officials, but at that time, because the envoy died in the desert, no one dared to go, so the palace let Liu Chengfeng go out of the jam, and many people were not jealous, but a little lucky. But now that people have made such great contributions, doesn't it mean that even military attaches can be envoys, and now that military attaches can be envoys, wouldn't it be said that military attaches are going to join the cabinet?
Although the more I think about this matter, the more unsound it becomes, but the most important thing for scholars is the rules. No precedent can be broken. Just as in history, Zhu Houzhao of the Ming Dynasty went out of the customs to fight the Mongols without authorization, and finally won a complete victory. In their opinion, commanding the battle is the business of civilian officials, and charging into battle is the business of military attaches and reckless men. Don't you know what Ming Wuzong Zhu Houzhao did, his ancestors Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di also did it, but at that time, the scholars didn't dare to do it against these two killing gods. Persimmons, of course, have to find a soft pinch, and the most important thing is to set an example to ensure that this kind of thing does not happen again.
Liu Chengfeng's situation is actually similar, so many ministers hesitated, and even began to make small calculations, even if some ministers who usually have a good relationship with Liu Chengfeng actually saw a clue, it is not convenient to express any opinions at this time, for fear of provoking the hostility of their colleagues.
Zhu Youzhu asked a few words repeatedly, the entire court was silent, almost everyone was silent, Zhu Youzhang's face was already very ugly, he sat on the Dan rhino, squinted, and suddenly noticed something, and then sneered, and said: "In my opinion, whether a courtier is loyal or disloyal depends on whether he is willing to work hard, Wenchen is a courtier, Wuchen is also a courtier, Jinyiwei is still a courtier, Liu Chengfeng turned the tide when the country was in crisis, loyal and courageous, how can the court not be rewarded?" ”
This sentence naturally means something, it can be regarded as an attitude on behalf of the palace, don't think that I don't know what you are thinking, but this time, I am committed.
"Don't speak? This is strange, something happened to the tile thorn, you have nothing to do, just don't speak, now that the matter has been resolved, you still don't speak when it's time to talk about meritorious deeds, what's wrong with my courtiers? ”
Zhu Youzhu looked a little impatient, stroking the imperial case, and his face was very ugly.
It's obviously a good thing, but it's like crying and mourning, these people really teach Zhu Youzhu a little cold.
"Your Majesty......"
This time it was Liu Ji who stood up, Liu Ji looked very deferential, stood up in front of everyone, looked up at Zhu Youzhu on the Dan rhino, and then bowed to the ground, and said: "Meritorious, naturally rewarded, loyal and brave ministers, how can you not tell the world and let the people of the world know his loyalty?" ”
The first sentence can be regarded as affirming Zhu Youzhang's words, but Liu Ji, the old fox, has always been an organized person, and then, his fox tail is exposed.
"But then again, Your Majesty said that Liu Chengfeng is a loyal and brave minister, looking at Wei Chen, Liu Cheng Feng is brave, but this loyal word, Wei Chen really can't see it."
Zhu Youzhu pursed his lips and said, "Why did Aiqing say this." ”
Liu Ji said: "All loyal ministers are honest and unselfish. Bigan's loyalty lies in disregarding his family name and life, and daring to speak out. King Yue's loyalty lies in having a country and no selfishness. Weichen secretly thought that those who were loyal did not have the heart of fame and fortune, and they were public and selfless, which could be described as loyal. ”
Liu Ji's words caused many people to nod yes.
But how can a faithful man who thinks only of the country and the king have the strength to plan for himself? This is a very simple truth.
Zhu Youzhang's brows twitched slightly, and he said lightly: "You mean that Liu Chengfeng is selfish?" ”
Liu Ji Zhengse said: "Weichen doesn't dare to assert, but then again, what Liu Chengfeng said in the book, there are 3,000 ......avant-garde people in the sweat court account" Liu Ji couldn't help laughing, it was a mocking laugh, he continued: "It's too sensational, anyway, out of the desert, no one knows what this Liu Chengfeng did, he is greedy for profit, and it is not impossible to take the risk." Anyway, this one, Weichen is playing and not believing it. If he really took the merit, then Weichen has to ask, how can a person who is a person who is a merit advocate be loyal and brave? ”
Liu Ji is indeed very shrewd, he saw a flaw in the book at a glance, the three thousand tents avant-garde, saying that if you kill everything, you will kill everything, it is really too sensational, who believes this kind of thing? Anyway, Liu Ji didn't believe it, since it was a meritorious service, then what Zhu Youzhu said before that he wanted to praise the loyal and brave people has become an empty sentence, a person who has made meritorious contributions, what loyalty and courage to talk about, what rewards to give, it is good that he is not held responsible.
When this remark came out, even Zhu Youzhu was speechless, in fact, Zhu Youzhu didn't fail to see the flaws in this book, but he didn't want to care, but Liu Ji wanted to care, the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty suddenly realized, damn, no wonder a martial artist is so powerful, sure enough, a dog can't change to eat, and all military attaches are virtuous.
