Liu Jin's heart is happy now, His Majesty is willing to reward himself, doesn't it mean that he is in the emperor's heart?

Liu Jin hurriedly looked grateful, and said, "Your Majesty...... The slave and maid have received the holy grace, and they are already grateful, and His Majesty has rewarded the slave and the maid three times, and the slave and the maid really don't know what to say, how can the slave and the maid be virtuous...... Your Majesty is so loving, the slave and maid will not frown even if you go up the knife mountain and the sea of fire for Your Majesty, the slave and maid ...... The loyalty of the slave and the maid is evident every day. ”

Zhu Houzhao said: "I know your loyalty, well, not under Ye Chunqiu, don't be like this, get up." Then he took a sip of tea, looking in good spirits.

When a eunuch brought a treasure knife from Shang Baojian to pay tribute to the Japanese state, Zhu Houzhao first held it in his hand, and after observing it, he couldn't help but sigh: "Good knife, good knife, Japanese knife...... It's very decent, Liu Banban, come, I'll give it to you. ”

Liu Jin took the knife gratefully, but he was thin and small, and he was lying on his back for a long time, holding such a domineering long blade, which looked a little funny.

I am still proud in my heart, how can it be called holy grace, this is holy grace, no matter who Your Majesty likes, because of what you are happy about, the reward will finally fall on us, hehe...... If Zhang Yong, Gu Dayong, and Ma Yongcheng knew about it, they wouldn't know how to envy it.

But I heard Zhu Houzhao arrogantly and said, "Come, take my sword." ”

Liu Jin was stunned for a moment, and saw that a eunuch took the sword from the sword shelf of the Warm Pavilion and sent it to Zhu Houzhao, Zhu Houzhao pulled out the sword, looked at the double-edged sword body, and nodded again and again: "The sword is also a good sword, but I don't know, how it compares with Ye Chunqiu's sword." Liu Banban, you stay away from me, well, a little farther away, okay, right here, raise the knife, now you are the three heroes of Ghost Island, I am Ye Chunqiu, don't be afraid, stand up straight, since you are the leader of the famous Japanese bandits, you naturally have to be domineering, think about it, now you, you are seeing Ye Chunqiu cutting wheat and slaughtering your subordinates, you are angry or not, come, spit out some fire in your eyes, and I, naturally loyal to the country, I am thinking about repaying the king's kindness, as soon as I see you, a thief and a wolf, Naturally, he is also angry, and he can't be angry himself, okay, you raise your knife to chop me now, you don't have to be polite, I am Ye Chunqiu, of course Ye Chunqiu only has the share of killing the three heroes of Ghost Island...... Naturally, I won't be hurt by your little robber, come ......"

"......" Liu Jin's face was sallow, trembling and holding the knife, the knife weighed a thousand catties in his hand, and his legs were swinging leisurely, and he said expectantly: "Your Majesty...... His Majesty...... Your Majesty... The slave is Liu Jin......"

Zhu Houzhao had already raised his sword and was eager to try, frowning and said: "But now you are the three heroes of Ghost Island, the three heroes of Ghost Island, you dare to violate the boundaries of my Ming Dynasty and slaughter the people of my family. ”

Liu Jin collapsed, and a fishy liquid flowed out between the two strands, and then with a bang, the knife fell to the ground, and he fell to the ground all of a sudden, pouted his buttocks, and said in a throat: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty...... The slave is cowardly, the slave is afraid of death, Your Majesty spares your life, how ......can you spare your life?"

Zhu Houzhao was furious and said: "Dog thief Ghost Island Sanxiong, what's the use of sparing your life, and it depends on my Ye Chunqiu's methods." ”

As soon as he didn't agree with him, he rushed up with his sword, Liu Jin didn't see it right, he was in a groove, he really didn't care about anything, he got up and ran, and said in his mouth: "My ghost island three heroes are served, Ye Yingxing's martial arts are the world's first." ”

…………………………

The cabinet is still in the dark about the nonsense in the warm pavilion.

But for the Majesty who is not very worry-free, the elders of the cabinet are too lazy to care about it at this point, and they turn a blind eye, what else can they do? Everything that should be said has been said, and those who should be persuaded have also been persuaded, just hoping that the righteous son of heaven can maintain a little bit of the appearance of a king in front of outsiders.

Deng Jian's report has been sent, and Deng Yushi has already counted the number of Japanese prisoners in Hangzhou, one hundred and thirty-three, and there is no mistake at all.

Since this is the case, then it is imperative for the Ministry of Rites to reward meritorious deeds, and the so-called clear rewards and punishments are a means of punishment and encouragement.

The four pavilion elders also attach great importance to this, Liu Jian is the first, followed by Li Dongyang and Xie Qian, as for Jiao Fang, because he is a newcomer to the cabinet, so he has to sit at the bottom of the seat, today it is Jiao Fang who opened his mouth first, Jiao Fang is from Henan, his accent is a little heavy, he said slowly: "Pingwei is a great achievement, since it is necessary to talk about meritorious deeds, first of all, this Hainingwei, naturally should be involved, those who are dead and injured not only have to be compensated, but also let the children fill the palace, and the rest of the military attaches also need to be added to the first rank, this matter, can let the Ministry of Rites list a charter, If nothing is missing, the cabinet can approve it. As for the conductor Qian Qian...... Oh, this person is not only the chief officer, but also a lot of credit, the report of the victory, said that he is the first soldier, prepared for the guards, there are very few such people, might as well be so, just dial into Nanjing, in the five military camps to hold a position, he was hereditary thousands of households, and now, give him an earl, but also said in the past, what do the princes think? ”

Everyone nodded, the hereditary thousands of households, hundreds of households, although in the Ming Dynasty is more widespread, but this earl, is not easy to reward, except for the Hongwu period of a founding hero of the tide, followed by Emperor Wen Jingnan and a group of auxiliary heroes, after that, this title is easily not granted.

Liu Jian shook his head: "Ping Wei is exciting, I give Count Qian Qian, and it is okay to transfer to the Five Military Mansions, as for the title, it will be decided by the Ministry of Rites." So what about Ye Chunqiu? Ye Chunqiu's contribution to this battle is not small, Binzhi, you have sat in the hall in the Ministry of Rites, you might as well talk about it. ”‘

Li Dongyang nodded, and he groaned: "Ye Chunqiu is both civil and military, he is indeed a talent, at a young age, it is not easy to have such a great achievement." ”

This can be regarded as defining Ye Chunqiu's character first, he looked around, and saw that no one objected, so he brushed his beard again, and said with a smile: "This son saved Ningbo from danger, and it was the first merit to be established, it stands to reason that he should give a hereditary official, and then join the pro-army, but he is a person, Zhugong, is he willing to let him abolish his career?" He is a martial artist, but in the end, he is still a career...... So between the old husbands, let's give Wenxun. ”

As soon as Wen Xun heard it, everyone looked at each other.
