When the pilgrimage ends.

Zhang Rui was immediately invited to the inner palace by two little eunuchs for dinner.

Inner Palace.

Qianqing Palace.

When he entered the main hall, he found that there were many people here.

Li Guozhen, Wang Chengen, his father Zhang Shize, and a figure he didn't expect, Murong Bo.

In addition to these people he knew, there were two fierce-looking generals.

"Zhang Rui."

"Today you have done a great service, and the widow will be rewarded heavily."

"Come!"

"Sit."

Chongzhen, who was originally chatting with all the heroes, immediately called him over when he found Zhang Rui coming in.

"Meet Your Majesty."

Walk over. Zhang Rui said.

"Come, the widow will introduce you."

Chongzhen's trust in Zhang Rui is great, just now Zhang Rui did not go through his order, and actually killed Zhang Denian at the court meeting because of loyalty and anger, those words that drank hundreds of officials and coerced Feng Daoyou and others were not fake.

Pure and faithful.

He deserves to be reused and cultivated.

"This is Liu Zeqing, the chief soldier of Shandong, and this is Gao Jie, the chief soldier of Tai'an, and it depends on the two generals to be able to take down these cabinet Chen Yan this time."

Liu Zeqing!

Gao Jie!

Zhang Rui didn't expect Chongzhen's game to be so big, and even Gao Jie and Liu Zeqing were used as pawns by him.

"Meet Mr. Liu, Mr. Gao."

He said hello.

"The little country is polite."

"We have all heard about today's events, I didn't expect Xiao Guogong to be so loyal and brave, to kill the greedy Zhang Denian for the king, I didn't bother to buy him at the beginning."

Gao Jie said heartily.

"There is nothing to do, Mr. Gao is serious."

Zhang Rui said modestly.

After getting to know each other, he appeared next to his father and sat down.

After that, a small celebration begins.

During the banquet, Zhang Rui ate more and said less, now, it is already afternoon, and his stomach is rumbling when he is already hungry, so he is naturally eating hard at this time.

I have to say that the imperial chef in the palace is a thief.

Each dish has a good flavor and flavor.

Delicious.

"Your Majesty, when do you think I will take office?"

Gao Jie asked.

"Gao Aiqing, no one will forget this matter, as long as the situation is stable, the position of the Shanhaiguan General will also be yours."

"As for Liu Aiqing, the widow will make you the Marquis of Linze and lead the governor of Shandong."

"I hope that the two Aiqing can continue to contribute to the widow and the Ming Dynasty."

Chongzhen bowed his head and said.

The Marquis of Linze, the governor of Shandong, plus the general army of Shandong, Shandong will also become Liu Zeqing's territory.

He will be a rightful separatist force.

"Thank you for your kindness, you will definitely live up to your trust."

Liu Zeqing and Gao Jie arched their hands and said.

"Good!"

"I don't know, this time, the two Aiqing will each bring how many soldiers and horses."

Chongzhen asked.

"If you go back to the king, I will lead 80,000 soldiers, all of whom are elite divisions, and I guarantee that the thief Li Zicheng will go home to find his mother."

Liu Zeqing volunteered.

"Your Majesty, I led 100,000 troops, and now Chen Bing is in the north of [Shuntian City], on the east bank of the Dayu River."

Gao Jie said.

"Okay."

"With the 180,000 troops of the two generals, plus General Wu's Guanning Iron Cavalry, and the elite of my Beijing camp, this time our [Shuntian City] is naturally foolproof."

Chongzhen was a little floating.

"No!"

Liu Zeqing and Gao Jie agreed.

“......”

Zhang Shize did not speak, nor did he express his position.

He also found that Chongzhen had not realized that the two people in front of him were the biggest threat, and now he actually made one of the other party the chief soldier of Shanhaiguan, and the other marquis was added to the post of governor, which did not fuel their arrogance.

(Stupid)

However, he did not blame it.

Now Zhang Shize, he has passed that hot-blooded and impulsive age, he already understands what it means to protect himself, and he also knows that now in the face of the division of the three-way Qinwang, even if he has all kinds of ambitions, he can only restrain himself.

(dormant)

Li Guozhen did not speak.

It's just that his face is very ugly, their Li family has made great contributions to the Ming Dynasty, and they are just Xiangcheng Uncle, an "earl", but this Liu Zeqing actually became the "Marquis of Linze" so easily.

I was not convinced.

But it didn't show it either.

“......”

As Chongzhen's close confidant eunuch, Wang Chengen also heard for the first time that Chongzhen actually promised such a great favor to Liu Zeqing and Gao Jie, one was named Hou, and the other was awarded the Shanhaiguan General Army.

He felt that these two rewards were a bit excessive.

The chief soldier of Shanhaiguan has a lot at stake, how can an unrighteous person like Gao Jie be allowed to serve? If Gao Jie opens the Shanhai Pass and changes to Jiannu, then where will the Ming Dynasty go?

As for Liu Zeqing, he is not a good bird.

He often corresponded with Jinyiwei on behalf of Chongzhen, and knew that Liu Zeqing was powerful and prosperous in Shandong, which was simply the style of the Emperor of the Soil, and now he is still the chief soldier.

Once he became the governor and was named the Marquis of Linze, would the people of Shandong still have a way to live?

However, although he felt that this was extremely inappropriate, he also knew that as a minion, he couldn't talk nonsense, and the occasion was not right now, so how could he raise an objection?

"Zhang Rui, what kind of reward do you want? Tell me what you want, and all the widows will answer you. ”

Chongzhen comforted Liu Zeqing and Gao Jie, looked at Zhang Rui again, and asked.

His face was full of anticipation.

As long as Zhang Rui dares to speak, he will agree to any conditions, because he trusts Zhang Rui.

In his heart, Zhang Rui's weight was higher than that of everyone present.

Including Wang Chengen.

I don't know why, he just believes Zhang Rui.

"Your Majesty, can I mention anything? Even if it's a bit excessive, is it okay? ”

Zhang Rui asked.

He was still thinking about Shi Miaoyun.

Can't let her go.

This is his obsession.

It is not easy to cut off.

(Extremely hard)

It doesn't matter if you fall in love at first sight, it doesn't matter if you are greedy for the other party's beauty, but Zhang Rui just wants to get Shi Miaoyun.

This is his soul.

"Humph!!"

As soon as he saw Zhang Rui's expression, Chongzhen seemed to think that the other party was trying to intercede with him again and let him let Shi Miaoyun go.

Alas!!

This silly boy.

Also an infatuated person.

However, this Shi Miaoyun has not figured out her details now, and she can't let it go for the time being.

"Zhang Rui, if you change your conditions, you can't let her go for the time being."

"The widow promised you that he would not torture her, nor would he kill her. After this time, as long as her situation is clear, the widow will let him and her go, and give you a marriage, how about it? ”

Chongzhen promised.

"What?"

"This ......"

The faces of everyone present were confused, and only the parties knew what it meant.

"Zhang Rui knocks on the great kindness of the king."

Zhang Rui got up.

Come to Chongzhen's front and kowtow.

Shane.

"You bastard, for a woman's sake, all right, get up."

Chongzhen couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Woman?

The more confused the people on the side became, they didn't know what dumb riddles Zhang Rui and Chongzhen were playing.

"Your Majesty, can I go see her?"

Zhang Rui said suddenly.

"You?!"

"Okay."

"After a while, let Wang Chengen fetch you a widow's waist card, and in the future, you can enter and exit the heavenly prison, the edict prison, and the palace at will."

"This token represents the widow."

Chongzhen said with a smile.

His doting on Zhang Rui has risen to an extremely crazy level, and he is afraid that he is not so concerned about the prince.

"Thank you."

Zhang Rui arched his hand and said.

"Now tell me what reward you want?"

Chongzhen once again broke everyone's perception of "spoiling", in fact, Zhang Rui was also a little surprised, he didn't expect Chongzhen to treat him so well.

He couldn't bear to rebel against him.
