Chapter 318: Fighting in the court
"The young master has just returned to Beijing from the battle, why don't you rest in the mansion for a few days, and come to the court today?"
Zhuge Qingshan walked over, Fang Jue and Yan Lanfeng had already walked outside the gate of Fengtian Hall and greeted Lord Shoufu.
Yan Lanfeng bowed his hand slightly, and walked away with the household waiter.
"Old Shoufu, don't come to harm?" Fang Jue returned the salute.
"Hey, I'm thinking about going to Fangjiazhuang to meet the young master and ask for a few patches, my backache and dizziness have made an old mistake after the winter."
Zhuge Qingshan said with a smile: "I have heard that the young master's medical skills are shocking, and he once pulled Ye Laoguo back from the Hades Palace, presumably the old man's little problem is not a problem, right?" ”
"Oh?"
Fang Jue was upright and stretched out his hand: "Boss, let me check the pulse." ”
Zhuge Qingshan is also not polite, anyway, His Majesty has not come yet, and the hour is still a moment or two, so there is no need to be too serious.
Then he stretched out his left hand.
Fang Jue took advantage of the situation and pressed Zhuge Qingshan's wrist in the air, feeling his pulse.
"Huh?" Fang Jue looked at Zhuge Qingshan, "Boss, you don't belong to your mind recently, so you don't have to work too hard." ”
"Hehe, Imperial Doctor Zheng in the palace also said the same, but the old man is the first assistant of the cabinet, so he can't have a vegetarian meal, right?" Zhuge Qingshan laughed and shook his head.
A famous minister like him has long thought about dying in the post of chief assistant to the cabinet, and he is not willing to leave his official duties for the sake of a little health.
Everyone understands the truth of health preservation, but who can let go of everything and focus on their own life.
"The blood on the waist of the old man is not smooth, go to Fangjiazhuang today, and I will give you a needle."
"Dizziness is a slight wind chill, cold in winter, and you can't stay too late at night when you are busy with official business in the house, otherwise even if you have a brazier, the wind will chill into your body, and you will suddenly fall ill after a long time." Fang Jue explained.
"The young master is really superb in medical skills, and he is more detailed than the imperial doctor, and the old man admires it...... Then go to your village to ask for lunch today, haha. Zhuge Qing smiled.
Fang Jue nodded, and the two of them gave each other hands, each walking towards the ranks of the courtiers and standing in the front row.
What was a little embarrassing was that the array of civil and military officials was clearly distinguished, Fang Jue thought about it, and still stood with Zhuge Qingshan.
"The young master is the general of the imperial seal to conquer the north and rebel, why is he still standing in the civil office?" The old general Zhao Yang said with a smile.
Fang Jue said lightly: "The expedition to the north has come to an end, and I returned to Beijing to hand over the troops, where am I still a general, so naturally I still stand according to the court." ”
If he stood in the military attaché, Fang Jue would not be able to stand so high, Fang Jue was very self-aware.
The highest court position on his head is from the first rank of the young master, and the second rank of the musket bureau supervisor.
These two positions are higher than the rank of the general of the rebellion in the north, and if they still stand among the military attachés, they will obviously offend the civilian officials.
As for whether it will offend the military attaché...... Fang Jue didn't care at all, the military attache had no military power, so it didn't hurt if he didn't offend, and there was a gap to make the emperor feel at ease.
"The young master's words are extremely true, General Zhao, even if the young master still holds the military position of the general of the expedition to the north, but his highest title is the prince and the young master...... Standing in the military attaché, I'm afraid it's not suitable, right? ”
Ye Xuanfeng actually opened his mouth and spoke for Fang Jue, and he stood in the first row of military attachés.
Zhao Yang's title and military position are lower than Ye Xuanfeng, and his qualifications can't be compared, so when he saw Ye Xuanfeng speak, he didn't say anything more.
Lin Bei and Wei Feng were also facing up today, and they originally wanted to speak for Fang Jue, but they were glared at by Fang Jue and signaled them not to talk too much.
No matter how good the relationship is, it can't be shown here, Ye Xuanfeng is forgivable for Fang Jue to speak, after all, there is a life-saving grace. A few of them, they can't be too close to Fang Jue, after all, civil and military need to be different.
"Your Majesty has arrived!" At this moment, Wang Feng's duck throat suddenly howled, causing the courtiers to stand up straight.
When His Majesty came, he got up one by one, even if he hadn't woken up and fallen asleep, he had to be stunned.
Xiao Pingsi walked in from the back door of Fengtian Palace, sat on the dragon chair, swept around the courtiers first, and smiled with satisfaction when he saw a few people he wanted to see.
"Long live Your Majesty......" the courtiers began their pilgrimage.
"Flat."
Xiao Pingsi was in a good mood, and with a wave of his hand, his gaze fell on Fang Jue at once.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." The hundred officials saluted, stood up straight, and held the jade gui or the fold in both hands.
"Today's court meeting, there is nothing to discuss, mainly about this northern expedition...... Award people according to their contributions! Xiao Pingsi spoke first and glared at Yushitai emphatically.
Qin Shiyi wanted to say nothing, but he also nodded, realizing that it was a bit out of place to fire today.
Let everyone be happy for a day, tomorrow you will know how powerful my Qin Tietou is!
"Hehe......" The courtiers all looked at Fang Jue, who was standing in the first row, and at this moment he was the most beautiful boy in the court.
Of course, there are also Lin Bei, Cheng Jie, Wei Feng and several generals of the Yulin Army and the Firearms Battalion.
"The young master led the Yulin Army and the soldiers of the Musket Bureau to go out this time, combined with the strength of the two battalions of Liangzhou and Lizhou, and the troops went out of Beiliang."
"Surprise attack on Deshuang Prefecture, frightening the defenders of Hanzhou, a battle on the north bank of the Rin River to settle Linzhou, and capture the state from the mouths of Beiliang and Western Chu...... Re-expanding the territory of the four states for my Great Xia is really a great achievement, unsurpassed! ”
It was Ye Xuanfeng who spoke repeatedly, and when he said this, people admired his bearing and modesty.
Fang Jue arched his hand: "Ye Laoguo praised falsely, how can you match your demeanor when you were young." ”
The capture of the four states was an extremely high military achievement, and almost no one in the world could compare with it.
But in front of Ye Xuanfeng, it is still not enough to see.
Ye Xuanfeng has been ranked first on the list of famous generals in the Emperor Pavilion for decades, and after he stepped down, the Emperor Pavilion would rather hang the first place on the list of famous generals for decades than change another name...... You can see the legend of his year.
This is a living legend, the real god of war, Ye Xuanfeng does not have firearms, and belongs to the existence of a real soldier like a god.
He praised Fang Jue, most of which was to promote the juniors and show the demeanor of the seniors.
If Fang Jue really thought that he could be comparable to him, then he would really eat too much lard and be blinded.
"Haha......"
Ye Xuanfeng stroked his beard and smiled: "The old man is already old, and now in the Six Kingdoms of Great Xia and the Princes, no one in the younger generation can compare with the military exploits of the young master, and it is enough to be proud of the others." ”
"In the future, I will definitely be able to surpass the old man."
Fang Jue narrowed his eyes, heard Ye Xuanfeng's mention, and said lightly: "The battlefield is dangerous, this time the juniors are also a little frightened, I am still willing to stay in Beijing in the future, I am afraid that my body will not be able to endure the hardships of the battlefield all year round." ”
Hearing this, Ye Xuanfeng nodded slightly, and secretly gave Fang Jue an approving look.
These words are telling everyone, telling Your Majesty...... I don't care about military merit and military power, so I don't have to worry about it.
"The young master is really too modest, the old man has seen the good news of the military department, the battle on the north bank of the Rin River is really exciting, enough to rank among the famous generals in the world, it is a pity that such a genius as the young master does not lead the troops."
Fang Jue followed the voice and looked over, and it was the old lady He who was on crutches who spoke.
He usually doesn't go to court, but today he must have come to join in the fun, standing in the same row as Ye Xuanfeng, and he also stepped down from his military position with a very high position.
"Your uncle's ......" Fang Jue glanced at the old man, secretly wanting to scold.
In order to reduce the pressure on your family He Feng, you just praised me like this?
It's really thoughtful.
"The last general has also read the military report, and the young master's use of firearms can be described as perfect and self-contained...... Relying on firearms, it is possible to control the battle damage so small, and firearms are really easy to use......" Zhao Yang said lightly.
Fang Jue glanced over, and he suddenly felt that this old general was a bit yin and yang, but it was not very obvious.
So he turned his head, looked at Zhuge Qingshan on the side, and asked with his eyes.
"What does this man mean?"
Zhuge Qingshan whispered: "Elder Zhao is worried that the firearms are out of control. ”
With just these few words, there is no need to say more, Fang Jue understands that different voices have appeared in the DPRK and China's views on firearms.
When what is used to is replaced and suppressed, there are always people who are used to it, and they will feel that this kind of breakthrough is dangerous.
Regardless of vision, based on all considerations, firearms are indeed dangerous, and Zhao Yang's worries are not unreasonable.
But today, when he spoke like this on this festive scene, he was a little impatient.
"What General Zhao said is extremely true, firearms are very useful, but you still need cavalry to suppress the formation, heavy armor and wings, in order to exert power."
In the era when firearms did not appear in bursts, it was impossible to completely replace the traditional army.
Fang Jue didn't intend to push this process too quickly, just like Zhao Yang was worried about, it was too dangerous.
It is necessary to gradually and comprehensively adapt within a controllable range, otherwise the consequences will be unpredictable.
"The young master is right, although the firearms have great merits, but this military merit is not something that can be won by the firearms battalion, and the Yulin Army and the three battalions of Liangzhou and Lizhou are all indispensable." Zhuge Qingshan said with a smile.
He is the first assistant, both civil and military, and he is not tainted with military power, and he is not afraid of taboos.
"Everyone, Aiqing, you have a point." Xiao Pingsi has been listening to the fights of all parties and did not interject, so he summed it up.
