What the? That's it?

Liu Yuan was dumbfounded all of a sudden, the official position is not worth mentioning, there is no land, no beauty, no title, and his military exploits are so worthless?

Not only Liu Yuan, but also the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, except for the eldest grandson Wuji, all of them were dumbfounded, Cui Jing's old boy, thinking that his daughter would marry in the past, and he would have the opportunity to be a marquise, and he was happy in his heart, but he didn't expect the sudden change in the situation, in fact, Liu Yuan, who had the most outstanding military achievements, only symbolically rose to a higher level, rewarded a little silver, and had nothing in the field or title, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

"Thank you, Your Majesty" Liu Yuan was helpless, so he had to mutter.

What can I say, now it is the world of royal power, everything is Li Er's final say, the previous show of goodwill, just a "trap", just to make the scene better, a bit similar to the game of later generations, said a lot, the most Lu later a "right of interpretation belongs to XX", when the time comes, it is said horizontally and vertically, it is someone else who has the final say.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that this move is inappropriate, the ancients have clouds, do not suffer from widowhood and unevenness, General Liu Yuan's military exploits, referring to the previous standards, should be more, the emperor's relatives are different, and the rewards are uneven, isn't it cold to the hearts of meritorious soldiers?" Liu Yuan had no opinion, but Wei Heizi, who had always been upright, couldn't hold back any longer, and "fired" at Li Er on the spot.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this reward looks very rich, especially the bounty of 10,000 catties, but the official rank is very low, such as fields and titles, there is no such thing as a field, there is no title, the official promotion is not as high as Cheng Huailiang, and he is not favored to obtain the title like Changsun Chong, as the person who has made the most meritorious contributions, the reward is the smallest, and the upright person naturally can't help but jump out to hold Liu Yuan's grievances.

This Wei Heizi is very handsome, Liu Yuanleng was stunned. Seeing Wei Zheng's serious black face, he suddenly felt that the more he looked at it, the more pleasing it became.

Well, it really deserves to be a professional "direct advice", this kind of thing, it is best for him to open his mouth, Li Er, a pick-and-seer man, has to be scolded by an upright person like Wei Heizi and let him have more blood.

"Your Majesty, you should reward the heroes"

"Your Majesty, in terms of military merits. It is not appropriate to favor one over the other. ”

Xiao Yu and Li Jing also walked out of the column, two upright people, and colleagues accused Li Er of being unfair.

"The three Qing families, please, you know your intentions" So many important ministers objected, Li Er said with a smile unhurriedly: "But." Liu Yuan also said that his time in the army was still short. Lack of seniority in the military. The experience of leading the army is not rich enough, and besides, he is too young, not yet an adult, and he has risen too fast, but he has been promoted by seedlings and pressure. His military exploits will not be erased, but he still needs to be honed before he can be entrusted with reuse, and you love Qing wholeheartedly for the country. I am very happy."

"Okay, that's the end of the matter, Liu Aiqing"

"The Minister"

"After the next court, you follow me to the imperial study, and I have something to say to you." Li Er said lightly.

"Obey"

Liu Yuan was a little depressed and took back the position he was standing just now, feeling a little lost, Cheng Huailiang shook his head at Liu Yuan, saying that he didn't understand either, and Liu Yuan shrugged his shoulders to show his helplessness.

This is not selling vegetables on the street, you can bargain, by the way, Li Erxia also let himself go to the imperial study, and I don't know what to say to myself, whether to appease myself, or talk to myself about the telescope, forget it, I can adapt to the situation then, I can just complain.

After rewarding Liu Yuan, Li Er continued to reward meritorious people, but Liu Yuan was very worried, and even said that he was a little disappointed, and he didn't have the heart to listen to the lecture, and Cheng Huailiang's mood was not very high, it is estimated that he did not estimate that his capture would have such a great impact on Li Er, so that the reward was not powerful.

The court meeting talked for half an hour, and the last one retreated from the court amid the screams of a eunuch, and as soon as Liu Yuan finished the gift with the minister in front, a white-faced and beardless eunuch came out in front of Liu Yuan, and smiled: "General Liu, please come with our family." ”

"There is Father-in-law Lao." Liu Yuan knew that this eunuch was leading the way for him, and he was not polite, so he followed him and left.

The rest of the officials, while chatting, walked out, returned to the house, returned to the office, returned to their own homes, each found their own mother, it is not yet lunch time, Li Er naturally will not let the imperial chef use meals to recruit, that has to be an expense, right?

Among so many ministers, Cui Jing's mood was the lowest.

He is just a baby daughter, this baby daughter was promised to Liu Yuan early in the morning, she was married a long time ago, but something happened, and she was delayed again and again, plus she was reluctant to marry her only daughter out of Lu so quickly, and now it is dragged like this, seeing Liu Yuan so competitive in Tubo, Cui Jing was naturally overjoyed, and in the face of the congratulations of his colleagues, he didn't say anything, but he was already happy in his heart, and he wanted to love his daughter and be able to marry his husband, even if he married out of Cui's door, he could live well.

Unexpectedly, I don't know what the emperor thinks, Liu Yuan's reward is far lower than his expectations, not to mention that there is no title, it is an official rank, and it is only promoted to the first rank, from the sixth grade to the fifth grade, at least those money and silver, the dignified Qinghe Cui family, will there be a little bit of silver?

"Big brother, what do you say the emperor is doing for Lu?" Cui Jing couldn't hold back anymore, and whispered to Cui Shang about his dissatisfaction as he walked.

"Are you saying that the emperor's reward for Liu Yuan's kid is too low?"

"Yes, everyone else is promoted to a knighthood, he has set up the most military battles, and he deserves the heaviest reward, but he just can't use it, but he only rewards a large amount of money, doesn't that mean that he is not reused? That's unfair. Cui Jing said a little depressed.

Cui Shang also nodded in agreement and said: "It is indeed a little inappropriate for the emperor to do this, but I think there must be a special reason for this." ”

"What's the special reason?"

"Yes, third brother, didn't you hear that?"

Cui Jing said a little embarrassed: "I was distracted just now, I didn't listen well, big brother, did you hear something?" ”

"Actually, if you think about the emperor's words, you will know the truth."

"Oh, what's that? Please also ask the eldest brother to advise. ”

Cui Shang nodded with a smile, lowered his voice and said, "Do you remember what Hou Shang said when he was rewarding?" Praise Liu Yuan for his commendable loyalty and outstanding ability, and praise it for two things, which looks good, but if you think about it carefully, do you find that something is missing? ”

"With loyalty, with ability, what is worse is virtue?" Cui Jing is from the Cui clan of Qinghe, and he is also an official of the Ministry of Industry, and he knows a lot about officialdom, but after a little thought, he immediately woke up.

"The third brother is really talented, that's right, Liu Yuan's kid is young and vigorous, and he can't say that he doesn't grasp the direction of virtue well, which will cause a big disaster."

Cui Jing was taken aback: "No, what's wrong with his virtue?" ”

Cui Shanggan saw left and right, and then lowered his voice and said: "The notice doesn't say that Liu Yuansheng captured the Tubo princess Zanmeng Saimaga, that woman is amazing, known as the first beauty of Tubo, the flower of the plateau, she was captured by Liu Yuansheng, maybe she didn't hold it, there is a mistake in the middle, just on the eve of the Angong banquet, someone witnessed a Tubo envoy delivering an urgent letter to the emperor, he didn't go to the Ministry of Rites, and directly let the emperor read it, there must be something secret and inconvenient to say, it seems that this matter will not be wrong." ”

"What?" Cui Jing was so angry that his beard was cocked: "How dare the shaft?" ”

His fairy-like daughter was promised to him, and he also let him have two more stunning women around him, which was extremely generous, and now at such an important juncture, it is related to the happiness of his woman in the second half of her life, this kid is still immoral, and falls on a "conduct".

Wait, the two countries are at war, and all those caught are prisoners, which are killed and chopped, and once they are caught, they are slaves, the soldiers are uprooted from their hometowns, their spirits are empty, and they grab a few women to enjoy, this is just a trivial matter, no one cares, many generals also promised to do whatever they want within three days after breaking the city, ordinary women naturally have no problem, so what can have problems is naturally a woman with a very high status, and then contact Liu Yuanjun to fight.

What the? This kid, after catching the princess, he treated her like an ordinary woman and played with the princess of Tubo?

"But angry, this guy, it's not okay if you don't teach him a lesson, he is so bold and reckless, he has a chance, it's really muddy that can't support the wall, hum!" Cui Jing was so angry that he didn't know what to say for a while, the two countries were at war, such an important person was treated like this, if so, it was better to kill her.

For a while, Cui Jing's feelings for Liu Yuan were disappointed, angry, and angry, but secretly a little envious, the Tubo princess, who was known as the first beauty, must have a good appearance, Liu Yuan actually had such luck, that, why didn't he have it? It's good to catch it and honor your father-in-law.

Cui Shang looked at the performance of the third brother, a little speechless, his third brother is very lustful, the orchid he bought last time also made him ask for two with a thick face, now it's good, people are divided into groups, things are gathered by like, this Weng son-in-law is a perfect match.

"Hehe, third brother, forget it, people are not romantic, besides, he has not yet married, and his temperament is naturally undecided, but the emperor is still very good to him, and after retiring from the court, he specially let him go to the imperial study to appease him, with the emperor's appreciation, it is only a matter of time before he is promoted to the rank of knight, and he is still young, and he is too high, and it is not good for his growth, it is better to sharpen his temperament below first, and he can go further in the future."

The eldest brother is right, as long as he has Li Er's favor, the promotion and knighthood is really a matter of his words, there is really no need to worry now, he is still young, he has not yet married, it is difficult to characterize, well, it seems that don't delay, let them get married as soon as possible, don't make anything wrong then, girls are outgoing, and now Meng Yao's longing look, it is estimated that she has long hated to marry.

Cui Jing made up his mind, and couldn't help but compliment the eldest brother: "The eldest brother is really like a fine hair, and he has nothing missing, so it can be analyzed and admired." ”

"Oh, it's nothing" Cui Shang said lazily: "You forgot, the wild wolf and the blood knife are our people, take their report and see it, what's the matter, I asked people to put it in your study, you didn't read it?" ”

"I didn't see it, I've been busy with Daming Palace recently." Cui Jing was so depressed that he was almost speechless. (To be continued......)
