Chapter 636, Can't be stopped
Wang Shixiu agreed with Zhen Rui's statement, but he had objections to Zhao Ping's proposal to be promoted to three levels in a row, "Emperor Qi, General Lu has been in the army for less than three years, and he has been promoted from a civilian to a fourth-grade General Xuanwei, which in itself is an exceptional reward for him, and has broken the precedent of the Great Zhou. ”
"Back to the emperor, the minister also thinks that General Lu's promotion is too fast, and it is really difficult to convince the public." Wen Wenshan is out of the ranks.
Seeing this, Li Cong smiled, "Lu Aiqing, what did you want to say?" ”
"Back to the emperor, the minister wants to be a civil official, and he wants to take the scientific examination, so the next minister plans to enter Taixue, study hard, and ask the emperor to complete it." In order to show his solemnity, Lu You specially knelt down.
"Listen, listen, you all listen, you're a villain, aren't you? A few months ago, I talked to the county lord of Baihui about the future of General Lu's career, and at that time, the county lord of Baihui said that it was an expedient measure for General Lu to go to the battlefield, in order to share my worries, and also to fight for my father, not to go to the career of a military general. His real plan is to use his own strength to take the scientific examination and become a civil official, saying that this is the right thing to say, and not to give people a handle. I didn't believe it at the time, and replied to her, being a military general is also based on his strength, who dares to question it? Hehe, I really didn't expect it, you, you one by one... Li Congyi stood up excitedly, but did not continue the rest of his words.
"Emperor Qi, the recommendation does not avoid suspicion, the minister thinks that General Lu can be his military general while reading his Taixue, but I am afraid that in a few years, the nephew and son-in-law of the minister will become the only civil and military all-round talent in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Haha, the niece of the minister finally married the right person. Menno stepped forward.
"Emperor Qi, what the Marquis Meng said, the minister thought it was true, and the minister seconded it." Chen Mo, the son of the eldest princess of Jinyang, stood up.
Although he didn't have any friendship with Yan Yan and Lu You, he knew one thing from his mother and wife, it was Yan Yan who saved his daughter and saved the reputation of the Chen family, and he was repaid.
Immediately afterwards, Zhen Rui, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, Zhao Ping, the secretary of the Ministry of War, and Dasi Nong, all seconded the proposal.
Subsequently, the crown prince Li Ji, the second prince Li Sui, and the fourth prince Li Zhi stood up and seconded the proposal.
Seeing this, Lu Ming had no choice but to stand up, "Your Majesty, the minister is also proud of his brother, with his brother's record, he is a well-deserved hero of this battle, and he deserves to be rewarded." ”
Lu Ming mentioned Lu You's achievements, which really made the people in the court speechless, so soon someone stood up and seconded it.
Wang Shixiu saw that the situation was unfavorable to him, and he also pointed to the emperor's grace to transfer his son back from the daimyo.
So, he also came out of the ranks, "Back to the emperor, the old minister is stupid, the rule is that the dead are alive, since ancient times, heroes have come out of youth, General Lu has outstanding military achievements, he can be justifiably promoted to General Yunlu, and the old minister retracts his previous words." ”
Wen Wenshan saw that Wang Shi had changed his words, and he also went out to echo it, because most of the civil officials at this time stood up and made a statement.
Xu Liangxing saw that both of them had expressed their positions, and knew that he couldn't stop Lu You with his own strength, so after a little hesitation, he also stood up.
The three prime ministers stood up, and these generals began to stand up one after another, and finally, Zhu Tao's father and son saw that there were only a few people who had an in-law relationship with the Lu family, and they were just about to be listed, Li Cong spoke, "Since you Aiqing have no opinions, come here, draft the purpose." It has always ruled the world with literature and fought chaos with force. And the military commander Rong will be the pillar of the imperial court, the country's dry city, and Lu You, the son of the prince of Zhenguo, who is both civil and military. Zite awarded Er as the general from the Sanpin Yunlu, and the tin was ordered to play, and Wei Zhenyidi. Greatly. ”
After speaking, Li Cong added, "I have authorized General Lu to go to Taixue to study day after he goes down to the court, and two years later, if he is a jinshi, he will be directly promoted to the position of the right attendant of the military department." ”
Seeing this, Lu You had to kneel down and kowtow to thank him.
In the end, Li Cong announced the rewards of several other meritorious heroes, Yan Ai and Lu Zhu and others were all promoted to the next level, and at the same time, they also got a lot of land appreciation, Lu Duan and Lu Ming couldn't be promoted to official positions, they could only reward thousands or ten thousand acres of land, and Lu You also got ten thousand acres of land.
However, these lands are all in the north, to be precise, near Jinzhou, Dingzhou, and Baozhou, these three cities were occupied by the Khitans before, and many large Han families in the city were killed, resulting in a lot of land ownerless, which was taken over by Li Cong, just to reward people.
In addition, this time the sixteen states of Yanyun were recovered, and a large area of land that had been occupied by the Khitans was returned to the royal name, therefore, after the end of this war, the royal land was a lot more, so this time he was much more generous than before, and even Li Sui was named King Zhao in advance, and the fief was Youzhou.
After the end of the court meeting on this day, Lu You got out of the carriage and rushed into the second gate, and learned that Yan Yan was in the upper room of the outer courtyard to discuss with the stewards, he immediately turned around and ran to the upper room, after entering the door, Lu You ignored the other people in the room, and looked at Yan Yan with bright eyes, as if there were stars shining, maybe because he was running too fast, or because he was too excited, his cheeks were a little red, and he forgot to hand over the scroll in his hand, he would only look at Yan Yan and smirk.
Seeing that he was so excited, Yan Yan hurriedly got up and wanted to ask what the reason was, Lu You stepped forward and grabbed Yan Yan's hand, "Lady, I did it, I did it, lady." ”
Yan Yan was confused by this headless and brainless sentence, but it happened that at this time, Lu You also remembered the scroll in his hand, and spread his hands in front of Yan Yan, "Lady, you see, the emperor has named me General Yunlu from the third rank today, and the ten-year plan you set when you got married, I did it in five years, lady, I did it, I didn't let you down." ”
Zhou Haisheng and the others hurriedly stood up when they heard this, "Congratulations to the general, congratulations to the general, such a big happy event, the small ones will go and tell everyone to have fun together." ”
"Okay, it's hard for all of you to work hard to support this family for all of you this year, and if you order it to go down, just say what the general means, everyone in the house will reward the same money, and everyone will be happy together. But happy to be happy, you can't be sloppy on errands, and the things I explain must be done well. Yan Yan commanded.
"Don't worry, the county lord. The reward of General Xie and the county lord. Zhou Haisheng and the others stepped back as they spoke.
When Zhou Haisheng and the others went out, Yan Yan took Lu You's hand and entered the outer study in the west, only to know that Lu You did not go to the south study, but went to the court.
