Chapter 449: General Feng Zhendong
When it came to Xiao Chen, the ministers were full of praise in addition to being amazed.
Chu Yanwu's face changed slightly, let alone destroying the Dongying Kingdom, he didn't even expect Xiao Chen to be able to repel those Dongying troops who came to harass Jiangdong.
The reason why he was sent was just a formality, what could he do with the thousands of people in Dongchang?
Unexpectedly, things often exceeded expectations, and it really made Xiao Chen famous!
He didn't know whether he should be happy or jealous, but he still had to do it in front of the ministers.
He smiled calmly: "Lord Xiao really lives up to expectations, and he lives up to my expectations of him, so he has made such a great contribution, and he will be rewarded with a big prize!" ”
"Of course, this matter is also inseparable from the support and help of Governor Wei, and there are rewards for everything!"
He thought about it, and first promoted Wei Bai'an.
As for Xiao Chen......
He is already the overseer of the East Factory, and if it is purely from the perspective of eunuchs, he has come to a big position.
If you raise it higher, you can't directly replace Chen Jin to be nine thousand years old, right?
Just when he was entangled, Zhang Dongyang suddenly stepped forward with great energy: "Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that Jiang Du is so indispensable, and he should no longer define his merits by the reward of eunuchs." ”
Chu Yanwu raised his eyebrows slightly: "Then according to what Zhang Aiqing said, what should I do?" ”
Zhang Dongyang said bluntly: "Since this time it was Lord Xiao who personally led the troops, made a brave decision, and successfully destroyed the small country of Dongying with a powerful layout, he should be rewarded for military merit!" ”
His voice was high-pitched and loud.
Chu Yanwu was stunned in place, a little dumbfounded.
That eunuch has made military merits, what does this look like when it goes out?
He didn't answer first, but looked at the civil and military officials, as if he wanted to get a hint of decision from their remarks.
A smart person like Xiao Chen, the bigger the manpower, the more dangerous it is, and he really has the ability.
At present, he has reached the peak of eunuchs, and these gold, silver and jewels are not very convincing.
is about the reward for making great contributions this time, and it also determines your own pattern and attitude, and it is not good to be poked in the back.
The ministers also began to talk about it.
"How can you be rewarded for military merit? He's just a eunuch, isn't there something out of line? ”
"Tragedy is dead, man is alive, how can a person's ability be defined by identity?"
Everyone has their own opinions, and most of the opposition comes from the pedantic thinking of the civilian officials.
After a while, everyone couldn't delete a countermeasure, but Zhao Xifeng stepped forward unexpectedly: "Your Majesty, Prime Minister Zhang Cheng is reasonable." ”
"The master of the height is the master of the East Factory, and it stands to reason that the battlefield matters. But since he has made meritorious contributions, why can't he be rewarded according to military merits? ”
"Contradictions are not unreasonable, and it is easy to leave others behind."
Zhang Dongyang turned around and glanced at him, and there was not much friendship between the two.
But at this moment, their thoughts were unified.
Because in Zhang Dongyang's heart, Xiao Chen's essence is not bad.
And when Xiao Chen left, the phenomenon of enclosure and people's livelihood was becoming more and more serious.
Under his unremitting investigation, he found that these things were related to the Son of Heaven in front of him, if the emperor was unkind, he couldn't help but think of Xiao Chen's warning to him?
There are some things that can't be found even if you check them, and the person behind them is not something that his identity and status can shake.
At that time, he knew that Xiao Chen was intimidating himself.
But after my own personal investigation, I found that things are far from being as simple as I imagined.
Although he is loyal to the court, his heart is to serve the people, and if the court loses its essence, then he will not sit idly by.
Helping Xiao Chen at this moment is not only because he is impressed by his strength, but also because he wants to prepare for the future.
If Chu Yanwu really oppressed the people, he might not continue to stick to his heart in this place.
At least Xiao Chen still has kindness to the people in his heart, maybe he can rely on him at that time and continue the justice in his heart.
There are two big names who appear one after another, one article and one martial arts, which actually makes Chu Yanwu embarrassed.
The proposals of the two are not groundless, they are all justified and convincing.
It was deliberate, under the gaze of the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, that Chu Yanwu compromised.
"That's it, now that the Dongying Kingdom has just been destroyed, there are many things that need to be managed."
"Since Xiao Chen took the initiative to ask for his life and stayed there, he accepted the position of general of Zhendong with him and guarded Dongying!"
Xiao Chen is now famous, and many people take him as a proud role model.
If you don't show some sincerity, I'm afraid it's easy to be true.
After the dispersal of the dynasty, Chen Jin was unwilling in his heart.
"Your Majesty, if you crown him as General Zhendong, won't you encourage that kid's arrogance?"
"His identity is still a mystery, and after taking Dongying, he refused to move his body back, so he took the initiative to stay there and continue to guard, there are really too many doubts!"
Chen Jin was depressed in his heart.
Chu Yanwu swept over with a cold eye: "What's the use of talking about this now?" ”
"Who knew that Xiao Chen had such a heavenly ability, and the grasshopper shook the tree, and it really made him achieve!"
Knowing that he was so powerful, Chu Yanwu would not have agreed to it in the first place, and let him go to exterminate Dongying, but in the end, he put himself in a dilemma.
However, after weighing the left and right, he still sighed: "There is no need to worry too much about this matter. ”
"Even if he is given the post of general, it is only in name only, and I will not give him a single soldier."
"If he really wants to entrench himself in that place and cultivate his strength, it won't be so fast for a while.
Chen Jin hurriedly said, "What does Your Majesty mean?" ”
"Dongying has just been destroyed, he will occupy the magpie's nest, I'm afraid there are still a lot of Li party, thinking about his life, Kuang restored the old country, you say that if this person dies in an accident......
Chu Yanwu's cold smile made people feel uneasy when they looked at it.
At this moment, he was really murderous.
Xiao Chen can take Dongying, but if he stays there and doesn't come back, it is enough to show that its center has deteriorated.
A strong person, if he does not have absolute loyalty, as an emperor, how can he rest assured?
Only the dead are the easiest to reassure!
Chen Jin suddenly realized, and hurriedly arched his hand: "You don't have to understand, arrange it now!" ”
The decree was transmitted to Jiangdong and Qinhuangdao respectively.
"General Zhendong, congratulations, this battle is really beautiful, and it will rise to prominence."
"The eunuch can come to such a point, it is unprecedented, and there is no one after!"
The eunuch who delivered the message was a little stammering, and Xiao Chen also cooperated with him to reward him with some silver money, and then said humbly: "My father-in-law said that he was laughing, no matter how powerful he was, he relied on the prestige of the Son of Heaven." ”
"When you reach a high position in the future, don't forget to help me say a few kind words."
